QoE-Oriented Mobile Edge Service Management Leveraging SDN and NFV
(Hindawi, 2017)
5G envisages a "hyperconnected society" where trillions of diverse entities could communicate with each other anywhere and at any time, some of which will demand extremely challenging performance requirements such as ...
Enhanced Flexibility and Reusability through State Machine-Based Architectures for Multisensor Intelligent Robotics
(MDPI, 2017-05-31)
This paper presents a state machine-based architecture, which enhances the flexibility and reusability of industrial robots, more concretely dual-arm multisensor robots. The proposed architecture, in addition to allowing ...
An overview of progress in electrolytes for secondary zinc-air batteries and other storage systems based on zinc
(Elsevier, 2017-01-11)
The revived interest and research on the development of novel energy storage systems with exceptional inherent
safety, environmentally benign and low cost for integration in large scale electricity grid and electric
vehicles ...
Context- and Template-Based Compression for Efficient Management of Data Models in Resource-Constrained Systems
(MDPI, 2017-08)
The Cyber Physical Systems (CPS) paradigm is based on the deployment of interconnected heterogeneous devices and systems, so interoperability is at the heart of any CPS architecture design. In this sense, the adoption of ...
Brownian Dynamics Computational Model of Protein Diffusion in Crowded Media with Dextran Macromolecules as Obstacles
(MDPI, 2017-03-09)
The high concentration of macromolecules (i.e., macromolecular crowding) in cellular environments leads to large quantitative effects on the dynamic and equilibrium biological properties. These effects have been experimentally ...
Enantioselective Ring-Opening Polymerization of rac-Lactide Dictated by Densely Substituted Aminoacids
(ACS, 2017-03-08)
Organocatalysis is becoming an important tool in
polymer science because of its versatility and specificity. To date
a limited number of organic catalysts have demonstrated the
ability to promote stereocontrolled ...
Catalysis of a 1,3-dipolar reaction by distorted DNA incorporating a heterobimetallic platinum(II) and copper(II) complex
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017-08-11)
A novel catalytic system based on covalently modified DNA is described. This catalyst promotes 1,3-dipolar reactions between azomethine ylides and maleimides. The catalytic system is based on the distortion of the double ...
Leaves play a central role in the adaptation of nitrogen and sulfur metabolism to ammonium nutrition in oilseed rape ( Brassica napus )
(Biomed Central, 2017-09-20)
Background: The coordination between nitrogen (N) and sulfur (S) assimilation is required to suitably provide plants with organic compounds essential for their development and growth. The N source induces the adaptation ...
A reliable turning process by the early use of a deep simulation model at several manufacturing stages
(MDPI, 2017-05-02)
The future of machine tools will be dominated by highly flexible and interconnected systems, in order to achieve the required productivity, accuracy, and reliability. Nowadays, distortion and vibration problems are easily ...
Microtechnologies for Cell Microenvironment Control and Monitoring
(MDPI, 2017-06)
A great breadth of questions remains in cellular biology. Some questions cannot be answered using traditional analytical techniques and so demand the development of new tools for research. In the near future, the development ...
