Virtual submerged floating operational system (VSFOS), built in the laboratory environment, consisted of an ABB robot, the IRC5 controller, a six-degrees-of-freedom (6DOF) parallel robotic motion platform, an inertial navigation sensor and a real-time industrial computer, can make it possible to do all kinds of underwater operational simulation experiments very easily and expediently. In this paper,...
According to the business process and the characteristics of the project contract approval, this paper proposes an effective contract approval process model. the model can achieve the automation design for the approval process. then based on the Workflow technology, we define some process rules for the project contract. According to the process rules, we design an algorithm for the approval process...
A new application for path planning is presented for mobile robot transportation in life science laboratories. In this application: (a) to decide the shortest paths for mobile tasks, a hybrid path planning strategy using two algorithms from the map theory is proposed. The Floyd algorithm is adopted to do an off-line path planning, and the Dijkstra algorithm is executed to decide an on-line alternative...
Software refactoring might be done in two different tactics. The first one is XP-style small-step refactoring, also called floss refactoring. The other tactic, called root canal refactoring, is to set aside an extended period specially for refactoring. Floss refactoring, as one of the corner stones of XP, is well acknowledged. In contrast, root canal refactoring is doubted, especially by XP advocators...
In order to realize the standardization and informationization of safety evaluation, the software system of construction risk evaluation is developed based on the gray Euclid relation theory model and C/S system structure. Six modules, that are system login module, risk data management module, risk assessment module, evaluation results query module, and system management module are designed and the...
Time domain modal analysis method is one of the most important modal analysis methods nowadays, which doesn't need to transform the systematic input and output signal from the time domain to frequency domain, thus it can avoid fast fourier transformation's leakage error, reducing the required equipments and cost. This paper adopts Output-only Modal Analysis to identify the modal parameters of the...
The advantages and disadvantages of car body design with the forward and the reverse way is discussed. Hybrid design process with forward and reverse way for car body is proposed. Hybrid design interface technology of car body is study. The three different types of data interface are given. Combined with the hybrid design examples, the new design manner is realized.
Flexibility has been recognized as a desirable quality of software since the earliest days of software engineering. But no metrics for quantifying it are known to us. We bring forward a user-oriented model to measure the flexibility of software. User-oriented flexible point is the basic element in this model. Other elements are the manipulative complexity, flexible distance and flexible degree, which...
Software refactoring is to restructure artifacts to improve software quality, especially readability, extensibility, and maintainability, while preserving its external behaviors. Software refactoring has been successfully applied to source code and design models. However, refactoring has not yet been introduced to formal specifications. Compared to source code in programming languages similar to nature...
The introduction of ICT can reduce corruption by improving the enforcement of rules, lessening the discretion of officials, and increasing transparency. Yet, while ICT eliminates many opportunities for corruption for those who do not understand the new technology fully, it opens up new corruption vistas for those who understand the new systems well enough to manipulate them. Proper safeguards are...
