Towards a testing framework with visual feedback for actor-based systems
(IEEE, 2018-08-02)We introduce a prototype testing framework as an extension of JUnit for testing actor-based systems. Our framework runs a given JUnit test in various schedules and records the execution trace for each run. In case a failure ... -
Towards active tracking of beating heart motion in the presence of arrhythmia for robotic assisted beating heart surgery
(Plos, 2014-07-21)In robotic assisted beating heart surgery, the control architecture for heart motion tracking has stringent requirements in terms of bandwidth of the motion that needs to be tracked. In order to achieve sufficient tracking ... -
Towards an efficient anomaly-based intrusion detection for software-defined networks
(Institution of Engineering and Technology, 2018-08-24)Software-defined networking (SDN) is a new paradigm that allows developing more flexible network applications. A SDN controller, which represents a centralised controlling point, is responsible for running various network ... -
Towards automated aircraft maintenance inspection. A use case of detecting aircraft dents using mask r-cnn
(American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc, AIAA, 2020)Deep learning can be used to automate aircraft maintenance visual inspection. This can help increase the accuracy of damage detection, reduce aircraft downtime, and help prevent inspection accidents. The objective of this ... -
Towards automatic selection of direct vs. iterative solvers for cloud-based finite element analysis
(Civil-Comp, 2015)The new trend in engineering is to solve complex computational problems in the cloud using high performance computing (HPC) services provided by different vendors. In this paper, we compare performances of direct vs. ... -
Towards balance recovery control for lower body exoskeleton robots with variable stiffness actuators: spring-loaded flywheel model
(IEEE, 2015)This paper presents a biologically-inspired real-time balance recovery control strategy that is applied to a lower body exoskeleton with variable physical stiffness actuators at its ankle joints. For this purpose, a torsional ... -
Towards crutch-free 3-D walking support with the lower body exoskeleton Co-Ex: Self-balancing squatting experiments

Towards interactive explanation-based nutrition virtual coaching systems
(Springer, 2024-01)The awareness about healthy lifestyles is increasing, opening to personalized intelligent health coaching applications. A demand for more than mere suggestions and mechanistic interactions has driven attention to nutrition ... -
Towards low cost and smart load testing as a service using containers
(Springer, 2021)Providing end-users with high quality e-commerce, online communication, education services requires careful performance monitoring, tuning and prediction under heavy traffic loads. To address this issue, we propose and ... -
Towards subtyped program generation in F#
(ACM, 2011)Program Generation is the technique of combining code fragments to construct a program. In this work we report on our progress to extend F# with program generation constructs. Our prototype implementation uses a translation ... -
Towards test automation for certification tests in the banking domain
(IEEE, 2023)Software systems in the banking domain are business-critical applications that provide financial services. These systems are subject to rigorous certification tests, which are performed manually, and take weeks to complete. ... -
Tracking capacitance of liquid crystal devices to improve polarization rotation accuracy
(Optical Society of America, 2017-08-21)We report a capacitance tracking method for achieving arbitrary polarization rotation from nematic liquid crystals. By locking to the unique capacitance associated with the molecular orientation, any polarization rotation ... -

Transverse linear instability of solitary waves for coupled long-wave-short-wave interaction equations
(Elsevier, 2012-12)In this paper, we investigate the transverse linear instability of one-dimensional solitary wave solutions of the coupled system of two-dimensional long-wave–short-wave interaction equations. We show that the one-dimensional ... -
Transverse momentum spectra of inclusive b jets in pPb collisions at √sNN=5.02 TeV
(Elsevier, 2016-03-10)We present a measurement of b jet transverse momentum (pT) spectra in proton-lead (pPb) collisions using a dataset corresponding to about 35 nb−1 collected with the CMS detector at the LHC. Jets from b quark fragmentation ... -
The traveling salesman problem with pickups, deliveries, and handling costs
(Informs, 2010-08)This paper introduces a new variant of the one-to-many-to-one single vehicle pickup and delivery problems (SVPDP) that incorporates the handling cost incurred when rearranging the load at the customer locations. The ... -
Traveling waves and transverse instability for the fractional Kadomtsev–Petviashvili equation
(Wiley, 2022-07)Of concern are traveling wave solutions for the fractional Kadomtsev–Petviashvili (fKP) equation. The existence of periodically modulated solitary wave solutions is proved by dimension-breaking bifurcation. Moreover, the ...
