This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the Third International Conference on Simulation, Modeling, and Programming for Autonomous Robots, SIMPAR 2012, held in Tsukuba, Japan, in November 2012. The 33 revised full papers and presented together with 3 invited talks were carefully reviewed and selected from 46 submissions. Ten papers describe design of complex behaviors of autonomous robots, 9 address software layers, 8 papers refer to related modeling and learning. The papers are organized in topical sections on mobile robots, software modeling and architecture and humanoid and biped robots.
This book is dedicated to the memory of Professor Zdzis{\l}aw Pawlak who passed away almost six year ago. He is the founder of the Polish school of Artificial Intelligence and one of the pioneers in Computer Engineering and Computer Science with worldwide influence. He was a truly great scientist, researcher, teacher and a human being. This book prepared in two volumes contains more than 50 chapters. This demonstrates that the scientific approaches discovered by of Professor Zdzis{\l}aw Pawlak, especially the rough set approach as a tool for dealing with imperfect knowledge, are vivid and intensively explored by many researchers in many places throughout the world. The submitted papers prove that interest in rough set research is growing and is possible to see many new excellent results both on theoretical foundations and applications of rough sets alone or in combination with other approaches. We are proud to offer the readers this book.
This volume contains papers from the IFAC Workshop on Real-Time Programming. The aim of the Workshop was to bring together academic practitioners and industrialists involved in this important and expanding area of interest in order to exchange experiences on recent advances in this field. Contents include: * DEPENDABILITY AND SAFETY FOR REAL TIME SYSTEMS * REAL-TIME PROGRAMMING TECHNIQUES * SOFTWARE REQUIREMENT ENGINEERING * CONTROL SYSTEMS DESIGN * SOFTWARE DESIGN * SOFTWARE ENGINEERING AND COMPLEX ENGINEERINGSYSTEMS
The aim of software engineering is to find methods for developing high quality software products at a reasonable cost. As more and more computers are being used in areas in which a malfunction of the system can be a source of serious losses or disturbances to the functioning of the society, the quality of software becomes a more and more critical factor of business success, human security, and safety. Examples of such application areas are enterprise management, public administration, and social insurance or post delivery services. The quality of services offered to the society depends on the quality of software systems that support the functioning of the respective public or private organiz...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 5th International Conference on Multimedia Communications, Services and Security, MCSS 2012, held in Krakow, Poland, in May/June 2012. The 37 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from numerous submissions. The papers address issues such as privacy and data protection using digital watermarking and other technologies; object and threat detection; data protection and distribution; human-centric multimedia analysis and synthesis; cybercrime detection and counteracting.
