I describe an architecture for linking perception and action in a robot. It consists of three “towers” of layered components. The “perception tower” contains rules that create increasingly abstract descriptions of the current environmental situation starting with the primitive predicates produced by the robot’s sensory apparatus. These descriptions are deposited in a “model tower” which is cont...

In this investigation, the performance of a tower for absorption of sulphur dioxide gas into calcium carbonate solution has been studied. The trays had no downcomer and the tower itself was a scaled down pilot from industrial equipment. The industrial scale tower was used for clean up of 110000 m3/hr gas using 40 m3/hr alkaline solution. The study was composed of two parts. In the first section...

Transmission tower is a very important component of power system, and heavy iced transmission line has became one of the important factors against its safety and stability in China's power system these years but the transmission line designed from traditional standard can't endure the more worse environment. In this paper, for positioning the weak points of the transmission line under heavy ici...

Fire-tower is effectively applied in forest fire prevention and commanding system, especially in fire monitor and position. After explaining the significance of scientific planning of fire-tower, this paper analyzes GIS`s functions in building forest fire prevention system. This paper uses case study method, which designs a model, fire tower planning and analysis, based on MapGIS platform. Afte...

Abstract Vertical agriculture in urban areas is a new phenomenon where interest needed order to develop. The objective of the research develop tower system vertical farming technique. In this research, could produce 624 plants. This made using PVC pipe with 26 holes per tower. Each set towers equipped an irrigation system, namely water pump drain nutrient pipe. way monitoring works that ESP 32 ...

Today, many small aerodromes struggle with financial difficulties, and a large cost is air traffic control. Remote tower centers, which remotely provide air traffic services to aerodromes, can help reduce this cost. Each center may contain a number of remote tower modules, where each module is manned by a controller that can handle one or more aerodromes. In this paper we present the remote tow...

The influence of the local terrestrial environment on nocturnal atmospheric CO2 measurements at a 329-m television transmitter tower (and a component of a CO2 monitoring network) was estimated with a tracer release experiment and a subsequent simulation of the releases. This was done to characterize the vertical transport of emissions from the surface to the uppermost tower level and how it is ...

On July 9, 2013, an outbreak of Legionnaires' disease (LD) was identified at Long-Term Care Facility A in central Ohio. This article describes the investigation of the outbreak and identification of the outbreak source, a cooling tower using an automated biocide delivery system. In total, 39 outbreak LD cases were identified; among these, six patients died. Water samples from a cooling tower we...

The last decade has seen an unprecedented rise in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere mostly due to anthropogenic activities. In order to cutback on the greenhouse gas emissions we need to calculate accurately the greenhouse gas budget. The paper being reviewed here delineates a fine approach in that direction. The paper describes measurements from an old radio tower in Switzerland. Tall tower m...

We fix a monic polynomial f(x) ∈ Fq[x] over a finite field and consider the Artin-Schreier-Witt tower defined by f(x); this is a tower of curves · · · → Cm → Cm−1 → · · · → C0 = A, with total Galois group Zp. We study the Newton slopes of zeta functions of this tower of curves. This reduces to the study of the Newton slopes of L-functions associated to characters of the Galois group of this tow...
