Human Postural Dynamics

The study of posture dynamics is important not only to understand disorders of impaired equilibrium and protective reactions to unexpected displacements of the human body, but also to the design of prosthesis and functional neuromuscular stimulation as aids to patients with impaired postural stability and locomotion. Coordinated control of the body segments is a complex aspect of motor behavior, o

Activity Post-Mortem

I am so old that Post-Mortem is a well-known technique for debugging programs. And so old that when I started teaching as an assistant, pedagogy did not exist - we were just "thrown into the deep end of the pool and told to swim". So it seemed obvious to me to turn Post-Mortem into a pedagogical technique for debugging and improving my teaching. To first dump data about what happened and then anal

A Public Video Dataset for Road Transportation Applications

Video data and the tools for automated analysis have a great potential to be used in road traffic research, particularly road safety. In this project a video dataset is built and made public so that researchers can evaluate their algorithms on it. The dataset focuses on the traffic research applications (data from real research projects) and provides recordings of the traffic scenes, meta-data, ca

Key issues for a telecom supplier in the transition towards a software focused supply chain

Based on a case study of a telecom company’s transition towards more software value in their products, we describe and discuss SCM issues related to when traditional manufacturers go from a “hardware focus” to a mixed product configuration. Although software supply chain is not much discussed in logistics, it seems that logistics/SCM frameworks also fit many software supply issues. A specific soft

Impulse Radio Pulse Shaping for Ultra-Wide Bandwidth UWB Systems

In this paper, we investigate the design of pulse shaping UK filters for impulse radio ultrawideband (UWB) communications systems. The goal of the shaping is to meet an arbitrary spectrum mask, e.g., the mask mandated by the FCC for UWB emissions. Compared with classical FIR filter designs, the current problem introduces three new challenges: (1) it is minimax with quadratic constraints, (2) a sin

No title

Based on a survey of waste sorting behaviours and perceptions of residents in southern Sweden, we discuss how physical environment, gender and knowledge affect the actual sorting activities.

Supply Chain Designs for Preparedness

Purpose of this research The ability to quickly respond presupposes logistics systems designed to be responsive; supply chains must prepare to act if specific circumstances occur. By investigating ‘preparedness’ in a defence logistics context, the overall research objectives are to define ‘preparedness’ and to advance defence logistics as an academic research area. Design/methodology/approach We

Learning on Demand in GIS - Challenges for Employers and Universities

Summary – 200 words In education today, there is a paradigm shift with critical challenges for Universities to enhance innovation in teaching and learning. Knowledge and learning are critical issues for most companies and private and civil service organizations with today’s rapid changes in socio-economy and technology. The needs for competence development vary along a broad scale from short info
