We give a simple characterization of which functions can be computed deterministically by anonymous processes in dynamic networks, depending on the number of leaders in the network. In addition, we provide efficient distributed algorithms for computing all such functions assuming minimal or no...

Given a system of overactuated heterogeneous robots executing several tasks, we propose an algorithm that simultaneously assigns the tasks considering the different nature of the robots, and allocates the control while satisfying the limitations on the actuators. The efficiency of the proposed...

This paper proposes the combination of a fast motion planner, which generates potentially unfeasible trajectories for the center of mass of an underactuated UAV, with a tracking controller integrating a Control Barrier Function. In this way avoidance of both stationary and moving obstacles is...

In this paper, we propose a multiple-model adaptive estimation setup for a class of uncertain parabolic reaction-diffusion PDEs encompassing the Pennes' bio-heat equation, which is a motivating case study from the perspective of biomedical applications such as hyperthermia. The efficacy of the...

This is the companion paper of a two-part work on the observation of the heat transfer phenomenon in biological tissues. In particular, we are interested in real-time estimation of the temperature in the interior of a spatial domain of interest using measurements at its boundary. The prevailing...

Virtual reality (VR) is a technology that has the potential to innovate whole sectors as well as the way we interact with digital environments. AR and VR devices are a perfect way to gain knowledge, information, and to practice operation plans during, before, and after a disaster took place,...

Fog and Edge Computing are two paradigms specifically suitable for real-time and time-critical applications, which are usually distributed among a set of nodes that constitutes the core idea of both Fog and Edge Computing. Since nodes are heterogeneous and subject to different traffic patterns,...

The climatic change that we are experiencing in these last years, due to a huge set of causes in particular related to human activities, is leading to an increase of catastrophic natural phenomena. This clearly leads a direct impact not only on ecosystem equilibria but also on flora, fauna and...

Nowadays most of the streets, squares and buildings are monitored by a large number of surveillance cameras. Nevertheless, these cameras are used only to record scenes to be analyzed after crimes or thefts, and not to prevent violent actions in an automatic way. In few cases there may be a guard...

In the recently proposed LACE framework for collective entity resolution, logical rules and constraints are used to identify pairs of entity references (e.g. author or paper ids) that denote the same entity. This identification is global: all occurrences of those entity references (possibly across...
