The present paper is discussing some results of the bigger experiment that was conducted in order to study the effect of different sweat rates (3, 5 and 10 g/h) on footwear insulation. During the study series some tests with 8-hour sweating were carried out. A thermal foot model was used for testing. The model is divided into 8 zones and had 5 “sweat glands”. A thin sock was donned on foot model f
This paper deals with some fundamental questions regarding the concept of concept in the context of autonomous agents. The most basic of these is defining what it actually means for someone to have a concept. Rather than trying to state a number of conditions that should be satisfied in order to have the concept, it is concluded that having a concept is a matter of degree, which can be defined in
In this thesis, we first consider the phenomenology of R-parity violating supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model. Specifically, a large number of Lepton and Baryon Number violating decays of sparticles to particles are implemented in the Pythia event generator. The augmented generator has then been used to study event properties of these models, mainly at the LHC. During these studies, th
Recent advances of body networks enable the acquisition of personal context from various kinds of body sensors. As a result, how to build a platform to properly manage personal context becomes a problem. In order to address this issue, we design and implement a mobile physical space gateway (MPSG) which is a generic context management framework in mobile spaces. This framework includes three layer
In this paper we examine the idea of implementing communicating sequential processes (CSP) constructs on a Java embedded chip multiprocessor (CMP). The approach is intended to reduce the memory bandwidth pressure on the shared memory, by employing a dedicated network-on-chip (NoC). The presented solution is scalable and also specific for our limited resources and real-time predictability requireme
