  1. 1. Data Filtering and Control Design for Mobile Robots

    Author : Maja Karasalo; Xiaoming Hu; John Baras; KTH; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; formation control; tracking; nonlinear control; optimal smoothing; adaptive filtering; Optimization; systems theory; Optimeringslära; systemteori;

    Abstract : In this thesis, we consider problems connected to navigation and tracking for autonomousrobots under the assumption of constraints on sensors and kinematics. We study formation controlas well as techniques for filtering and smoothing of noise contaminated input. The scientific contributions of the thesis comprise five papers. READ MORE

  3. 3. Point of care microfluidic tool development for resource limited settings

    Author : Indradumna Banerjee; Aman Russom; Luca Brandt; Gustaf Mårtensson; Jens Ducrée; KTH; []
    Keywords : Blood; control; cell separation; centrifugal microfluidics; diagnostics; elasto-inertial; hematocrit level; microfluidics; neonatal diagnostics; nucleic acid quantification; point of care; particle focusing; resource limited settings.; Bioteknologi; Biotechnology;

    Abstract : The development of point of care diagnostics using recent advances in microfluidics have the potential to transform health care in several ways, especially in resource limited settings with limited access to advanced health care infrastructure. However, translating a point of care device to reality is often a challenging task because of the complexities involved in integrating a number of diverse engineering concepts into an easy to use, accurate and portable device.

  4. 4. Location-aware resource allocation in mobile edge clouds

    Author : Chanh Le Tan Nguyen; Erik Elmroth; Cristian Klein; Maarten Van Steen; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mobile Edge Clouds; Resource Allocation; Quality of Service; Application Placement; Workload Prediction; Computer Systems; datorteknik; Computer Science; datalogi;

    Abstract : Over the last decade, cloud computing has realized the long-held dream of computing as a utility, in which computational and storage services are made available via the Internet to anyone at any time and from anywhere. This has transformed Information Technology (IT) and given rise to new ways of designing and purchasing hardware and software. READ MORE

  5. 5. Sensor Management for Target Tracking Applications

    Author : Per Boström-Rost; Gustaf Hendeby; Daniel Axehill; Peter Willett; Linköpings universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Abstract : Many practical applications, such as search and rescue operations and environmental monitoring, involve the use of mobile sensor platforms. The workload of the sensor operators is becoming overwhelming, as both the number of sensors and their complexity are increasing. READ MORE
