In this paper an adaptive fuzzy decentralized
control algorithm for trajectory tracking of robot manipulators is developed. The proposed decentralized control algorithm allows the overall closed-loop system to be stabilized while making the tracking error to be uniformly ultimately bounded…

Using the underlying idea of the current-mode control, a new dynamical, sliding-mode control for the boost dc-dc converter is proposed. Such controller is easy to design, robust under load and input voltage variations, exhibits fast response, does not depend on…

Purpose – The idea that knowledge management can be a potential source of competitive advantage has gained strength in the last few years. However, a number of business actions are needed to generate an appropriate environment and infrastructure for knowledge…

The ambiguity, robustness and performance of systems becomes increasingly evident as the complexity and size increase in industrial processes. Under these circumstances, conventional control techniques such as PID control, nonlinear feedback control, LQG control and H∞ control have several disadvantages…

This paper presents the main
characteristics of an Agent-based Architecture
for the design and implementation
of a Spoken Dialogue System. From
a theoretical point of view, the system is
based on the Information State Update
approach, in particular, the system…

This paper presents an algorithm for identifying noun phrase antecedents of third person personal
pronouns, demonstrative pronouns, reflexive pronouns, and omitted pronouns (zero pronouns)
in unrestricted Spanish texts. We define a list of constraints and preferences for different types
of…

Building on the strength of the first edition, Quantitative Methods for Business and Economics provides a simple introduction to the mathematical and statistical techniques needed in business. This book is accessible and easy to use, with the emphasis clearly on…

Integrate and fire processes are fundamental mechanisms causing excitable and oscillatory behavior. Van der Pol [Philos. Mag. (7) 2 (11) (1926) 978] studied oscillations caused by these processes, which he called,relaxation oscillations' and pointed out their relevance, not only to…
