Improving the security level of the FUSION@ multi-agent architecture
(06/06/2012)
The use of architectures based on services and multi-agent systems has become an increasingly important part of the solution set used for the development of distributed systems. Nevertheless, these models pose a variety ...
Synthesis of optical filters using microring resonators with ultra-large FSR
(12/06/2010)
We propose a novel synthesis method for designing flexible, tunable non-periodic filters. It is based on a building block which is presented by first time for these purposes, being the poles position tuned by means of a ...
Modelling the degradation process of lithium-ion batteries when operating at erratic state-of-charge swing ranges
(2017 4th International Conference on Control, Decision and Information Technologies (CoDIT)2017 4th International Conference on Control, Decision and Information Technologies (CoDIT), 11/09/2017)
Manufacturers of lithium-ion batteries inform capacity degradation for regular, symmetrical charge/discharge cycles, which is clearly problematic in real life applications where charge/discharge cycles are hardly regular. ...
LexToMap: lexical-based topological mapping
(11/30/2016)
Any robot should be provided with a proper representation of its environment in order to perform navigation and other tasks. In addition to metrical approaches, topological mapping generates graph representations in which ...
A Web and Mobile Applications for Self-control of Patient Blood Pressure Through Mobiles and Biometrics Devices
(International Conference on Ubiquitous Computing and Ambient IntelligenceInternational Conference on Ubiquitous Computing and Ambient Intelligence, 10/07/2017)
In this article, we want to present a platform that allows the integration of different applications for the follow-up of patients with chronic diseases. We are developing two elements: the first one, is a mobile application ...
Advances in the adsorptive particulate flotation process
(09/18/2003)
The removal of contaminants from liquid effluents by the adsorptive particulate flotation (APF) process, including new adsorbents and flotation devices, are reported. Herein, contaminants are adsorbed (and/or absorbed) ...
Measurement Invariance of Personal Well-Being Index (PWI-8) Across 26 Countries
(09/08/2016)
This report examines the measurement invariance of the Personal Well-being Index with 8 items (PWI-8). University students (N = 5731) from 26 countries completed the measure either through paper and pencil or electronic ...
Mobile and ubiquitous architecture for the medical control of chronic diseases through the use of intelligent devices: Using the architecture for patients with diabetes
(05/01/2014)
This manuscript presents a mobile monitoring application to allow a patient to monitor a chronic disease using mobile devices. This application is developed according to three components that enable the semi-automatic ...
Displays and Photonics Application Group Activities
(06/01/2004)
Displays and Photonics Application Group (GDAF) is devoted to design and development of passive and active devices and sensors for their applications in WDM networks, CWDM, POF, and RF over fiber networks using different ...
A long-term field study on the adoption of smartphones by children in Panama
(MobileHCI '14 Proceedings of the 16th international conference on Human-computer interaction with mobile devices & serviceMobileHCI '14 Proceedings of the 16th international conference on Human-computer interaction with mobile devices & service, 09/23/2014)
Computing technology is currently adopted in emerging countries. Especially mobile phones and smart phones become widely used - with a much higher penetration than traditional computers. In our work we investigate how ...
