The Advanced GAmma Tracking Array (AGATA) is a European project to develop and operate the next generation gamma-ray spectrometer. AGATA based on technique of energy tracking in electrically segmented high-purity germanium crystals. This requires accurate determination energy, time position every interaction as gamma ray deposits its within detector volume. Reconstruction full path results with very high efficiency excellent spectral response. realization result many technical advances....

Design complex embedded systems demands method and tools that allow the simulation verification in an efficient practical way. This paper proposes development evaluation of a distributed platform heterogeneous simulators based on High Level Architecture (HLA), middleware for discrete event simulation, order to create environment with high-performance execution large-scale, systems. However, integrate hybrid is not trivial, because there no guarantee two perfectly work separately will well...

Abstract Worldwide efforts to tackle the nature of exotic nuclei comprise construction new-generation Radioactive Ion Beam facilities. The Italian community is deeply involved in process and SPES at Legnaro National Laboratories (INFN) progressing. This contribution describes layout all its flavours, from Nuclear Physics Applications Medicine Neutron Physics. In particular, status SPES-β ISOL facility, together with some relevant physics cases associated equipment are described.

We propose a new approach to Robot as Service in which team of heterogeneous robots composed Pioneers and Turtle-bots can be controlled all under the same environment. Our uses Operating System (ROS) order provide communication between workstation robots. These have set services that are available web server. Basically, two kind robotic provided: monitor control. The webcam viewing or map viewing. control allows user either move robot else proceed with other preprogrammed tasks. In...

Summary We propose the N-learning practical approach for teaching and learning behaviors in a multirobot system, which is performed through mandatory behavior acquisition based on interactions between robots at execution time. The proposed methodology can be used to self-program of team by programming only single robot with set codes that contain transferred other as necessary. These are implemented modular fashion. An advantage our when required perform specific mission, accomplish mission...

In this manuscript, we propose an approach that allows a team of robots to create new (emergent) behaviors at execution time. Basically, improve the called N-Learning used for self-programming in team, by modifying and extending its functioning structure. The basic capability behavior sharing is increased catching emergent run With this, all are able not only share existing knowledge, here represented blocks codes containing desired but also creating as well. Experiments with real presented...

This paper analyzes the prediction model of a nonlinear predictive formation controller (NMPFC) applied to control team omni directional mobile robots. The calculates future behaviors with respect obstacles, mates in formation, target, orientation, position and effort using kinematic predict most terms. Nevertheless, robots can be done by either dynamic models or pure models. Therefore, this presents an analysis order find balanced robot's that stimulates converge less time minimizing...
