  2. 1. In between mobile meetings : Exploring seamless ongoing interaction support for mobile CSCW

    Author : Mikael Wiberg; Victor Kaptelinin; Steve Whittaker; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Interaction histories; Mobile CSCW; mobile meetings; mobile interaction support; mobile technology; seamless ongoing interaction; session management; sustained and dynamic sessions of interaction; Information technology; Informationsteknik;

    Abstract : This thesis is a collection of seven papers reporting a research effort that started in January 1999. The theme of the thesis is interaction support for mobile CSCW (Computer Supported Cooperative Work). READ MORE

  4. 2. From Ants to Service Robots : an Exploration in Stigmergy-Based Navigation Algorithms

    Author : Ali Abdul Khaliq; Alessandro Saffiotti; Federico Pecora; Andrea Omicini; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Stigmergy; Minimalistic Robots; Mobile robot navigation; RFID technology; Multi-robot system; Path planning; Localization; Map building;

    Abstract : Navigation is a core functionality of mobile robots. To navigate autonomously, a mobile robot typically relies on internal maps, self-localization, and path planning. Reliable navigation usually comes at the cost of expensive sensors and often requires significant computational overhead. READ MORE

  5. 3. Flexible, Efficient, and Scalable Autonomous Exploration and Volumetric Mapping

    Author : Daniel Duberg; Patric Jensfelt; Cesar Cadena; KTH; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Exploration; Mapping; Autonomous Exploration; Volumetric Mapping;

    Abstract : Autonomous mobile robots have in recent years started to enter households in the form of autonomous vacuum cleaners and lawn mowers. The applicability of more advanced and general purpose service robots is almost endless. That is, robots that can perform a variety of tasks, instead of being specialized for a single task.

  6. 4. Football on mobile phones : algorithms, architectures and quality of experience in streaming video

    Author : Jiong Sun; Haibo Li; Fernando Pereira; Umeå universitet; []
    Keywords : Electrical engineering; Quality of Experience; Wyner-Ziv coding; Universal Multimedia Access; motion estimation; Dynamic Programming; traffic prediction; utility function; vibrotactile; Elektroteknik; elektronik och fotonik; Electronics; elektronik;

    Abstract : In this thesis we study algorithms and architectures that can provide a better Quality of Experience (QoE) for streaming video systems and services. With cases and examples taken from the application scenarios of football on mobile phones, we address the fundamental problems behind streaming video services. READ MORE

  7. 5. Domain Knowledge Assisted Robotic Exploration and Source Localization

    Author : Thomas Wiedemann; Achim Lilienthal; Dmitriy Shutin; Alcherio Martinoli; Örebro universitet; []
    Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Mobile Robot Olfaction; Robotic Exploration; Gas Dispersion Modelling; Bayesian Inference; Sparse Bayesian Learning;

    Abstract : Deploying mobile robots to explore hazardous environments provides an advantageous way to avoid threats for human operators. For example, in situations, where airborne toxic or explosive material is leaking, robots can be dispatched to localize the leaks. READ MORE
