We present a mixed integer nonlinear mathematical programming model, covering a broad range of Operations Research (OR) related topics. The case is designed to allow students to use knowledge acquired from OR and Management Science classes in order to model, analyze and provide concrete solutions...

In this article we present Anonymous Readers Counting (ARC), a multi-word atomic (1,N) register algorithm for multi-core machines. ARC exploits Read-Modify-Write (RMW) instructions to coordinate the writer and reader threads in a wait-free manner and enables large-scale data sharing by admitting up...

We present a novel framework for the automatic discovery and recognition of motion primitives in videos of human activities. Given the 3D pose of a human in a video, human motion primitives are discovered by optimizing the ‘motion flux’, a quantity which captures the motion variation of a group of...

In the context of mobile manipulator teleoperation, intuitive control interfaces are fundamental not only to reduce the operator’s workload, but also to improve the situational awareness during the task execution. In the case of object exploration tasks, different operator control units have been...

A new approach is proposed for an adaptive robust three-dimensional (3D) trajectory-tracking controller design. The controller is modeled for actively articulated tracked vehicles (AATVs). These vehicles have active subtracks, called flippers, linked to the ends of the main tracks, to extend the...
