OpenBot leverages smartphones as brains for low-cost robots
OpenBot leverages smartphones as brains for low-cost robots. We have designed a small electric vehicle that costs about $50 and serves as a robot body. Our software stack for Android smartphones supports advanced robotics workloads such as person following and real-time autonomous navigation. Current robots are either expensive or make significant compromises on sensory richness, computational power, and communication capabilities. We propose to leverage smartphones to equip robots with...
Accent interfaces and controls systems through goals and policies
Accent (Advanced Component Control Enhancing Network Technologies) is a comprehensive tool suite that interfaces a variety of communications systems and allows these systems to be controlled through goals (high-level user aims) and policies (lower-level system rules). Accent has been applied to the domains of:
o Call Control: for telecommunications, particularly call control in Internet telephony
o Home Care: for home automation and telecare, particularly for domestic appliances...
SiGeM is a Memory Management Software Simulator developed by Padua University's students. This software's goal is to show how processes can use memory pages, with a lot of scheduling policy provided by user configuration, in a multi-programmed system.
The program is used for translating EPAL to P3P. EPAL is used for enterprise internal privacy policy definition, and P3P is used for covering all the aspects of web sites\' privacy policy. This program is used to keep these two privacy policies in sync.
