Now corporate houses are actually putting that research to work, with impressive paybacks. Swarm intelligence is becoming a valuable tool for optimizing the operations of various business, as the field of swarm intelligence deals with systems composed of many individuals that coordinate using decentralized control and self-organization. In particular, it focuses on the collective behaviors that result from the local interactions of the individuals with each other and with their environment. It is a fast-growing field that encompasses the efforts of researchers in multiple disciplines, ranging from ethology and social science to operations research and computer engineering. The authors of this paper has tried to elaborate swarm intelligence for the purpose of improving management efficiency.","PeriodicalId":410786,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Region 5 Conference","volume":"19 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121320476","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Conventional myoelectric prostheses do not have a mechanism to convey any sensory information, making it difficult for users to feel connected to their hand and to engage in active grasping and exploration tasks. Vibrotactile stimulation is a simple and safe choice for a noninvasive haptic display that can be easily integrated into current hardware. A force-matching grasping task is used to quantify performance improvements at three different force levels with a pulsing vibrotactile feedback channel to convey grasping force. Results show that the haptic feedback led to improved performance in an experienced subgroup of subjects while naive subjects showed no improvement. These preliminary findings suggest that users experienced in EMG control may be able to improve their control of grasping capabilities with a vibrotactile representation of grip force.","PeriodicalId":410786,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Region 5 Conference","volume":"125 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126150823","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A GPR system operating at carrier frequency 500 MHz and a bandwidth of 250 MHz was designed and developed. The major problem in most of the existing Ground Penetration Radar systems is masking of the weaker returns by the strong sidelobes. This problem can be minimized to a great extent with the help of complementary Golay sequences. The performance of Golay sequences in terms of reduced sidelobe levels is considered better than that of pseudorandom (PN), Barker or other maximal length sequences. We have tested the performance of Golay and PRBS sequences using 4096 and 8192 length sequences, respectively. When the correlation obtained using two M length Golay sequence is compared with one 2M length PRBS sequence, sidelobe level for Golay sequence is almost eliminated. This results in better performance to detect weaker returns. However, this claim may not hold true at low SNR's. We have shown the results in anechoic chamber. Our tests indicate that Golay sequence has lower sidelobe level than PN sequences.","PeriodicalId":410786,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Region 5 Conference","volume":"359 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134480242","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The performance of this reference circuit is measured by the sensitivity of the output current with respect to the power supply voltage. The self-heating effect on the base emitter voltage and the output resistance of a device is used to clarify the design requirements. Based upon the basic principle of the VBE referenced bootstrap current source, several combinations of current sources and current mirrors are used for the design to compensate the self-heating effect that degrades the circuit's sensitivity. Simulation and measurement results validate the design and show that the proposed current source has improved sensitivity and is less affected by self-heating over the conventional bootstrapped VBE referenced current source. The circuits have been realized using dielectrically isolated bipolar junction technology (DIBJT) with the vertical bipolar inter-company (VBIC) model.","PeriodicalId":410786,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Region 5 Conference","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132880747","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis shows that the frequency response of the open-loop transimpedance and common-mode rejection ratio (CMRR) of the CFOA is highly affected by the dynamic self-heating induced errors. A large- signal step response of the CFOA in the closed-loop configuration, can have a large thermal tail due to the static self-heating effects. These thermal effects are studied using the conventional topology of the CFOA and different topologies of the CFOA are identified to mitigate such effects.

Natural sensing happens at the cellular level with receptor cells that respond to photo, chemo, eletro, mechano, thermo and magnetoreceptor-type stimuli. At the highest level, all natural sensing systems have the same reaction sequence to stimuli: perception, transduction, and response. This research is exploring methods for knowledge transfer between the biological and engineering domains. With the use of the Functional Basis, a well-defined modeling language, the ingenuity of natural sensing can be captured through functional models and crossed over into the engineering domain, for design or inspiration. Furthermore, a morph-matrix that lists each component in the model can easily compare and contrast the biological and engineering design components, effectively bridging the two design domains. The six main types of receptor families were modeled for the Animalia and Plantae Kingdoms, from the highest to the 4th sub-level, with emphasis on the transduction sequence. To make the biological sensing models accessible to design engineers they were placed in the Missouri University of Science & Technology Design Repository as artifacts. The models can then be utilized for concept generation and biomimetic design through searching the design repository by functional characteristics. An example of a biomimetic navigation product based on the principle of electric fish is provided to illustrate the utilization of the natural sensing models, morph-matrices and design repository.","PeriodicalId":410786,"journal":{"name":"2008 IEEE Region 5 Conference","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-04-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125589957","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
