Strandberg, Morten. "Robot path planning : an object-oriented approach." Doctoral thesis, KTH, Signals, Sensors and Systems, 2004. http://urn.kb.se/resolve?urn=urn:nbn:se:kth:diva-18.
Path planning has important applications in many areas, for example industrial robotics, autonomous systems, virtual prototyping, and computer-aided drug design. This thesis presents a new framework for developing and evaluating path planning algorithms. The framework is named CoPP (Components for Path Planning). It consists of loosely coupled and reusable components that are useful for building path planning applications. The framework is especially designed to make it easy to do fair comparisons between different path planning algorithms.
CoPP is also designed to allow almost any user-defined moving system. The default type of moving system is a robot class, which is capable of describing tree-like kinematic chains. Additional features of this robot class are: joint couplings, numerical or closed-form inverse kinematics, and hierarchical robot representations. The last feature is useful when planning for complex systems like a mobile platform equipped with an arm and a hand.
During the last six years, Rapidly-exploring Random Trees (RRTs) have become a popular framework for developing randomized path planning algorithms. This thesis presents a method for augmenting bidirectional RRT-planners with local trees. For problems where the solution trajectory has to pass through several narrow passages, local trees help to reduce the required planning time.
To reduce the work needed for programming of industrial robots, it is desirable to allow task specifications at a very high level, leaving it up to the robot system to figure out what to do. Here we present a fast and flexible pick-and-place planner. Given an object that has to be moved to another position, the planner chooses a suitable grasp of the object and finds motions that bring the object to the desired position. The planner can also handle constraints on, e.g., the orientation of the manipulated object.
For planning of pick-and-place tasks it is necessary to choose a grasp suitable to the task. Unless the grasp is given, some sort of grasp planning has to be performed. This thesis presents a fast grasp planner for a three- fingered robot hand. The grasp planner could be used in an industrial setting, where a robot is to pick up irregularly shaped objects from a conveyor belt. In conjunction with grasp planning, a new method for evaluating grasp stability is presented.

Tarhini, Batoul. "Oriented paths in digraphs and the S-packing coloring of subcubic graph." Electronic Thesis or Diss., Bourgogne Franche-Comté, 2023. http://www.theses.fr/2023UBFCK079.
This PhD thesis is divided into two principal parts: Part I delves into the existenceof oriented paths in digraphs, aiming to establish a connection between a digraph'schromatic number and the existence of specific oriented paths within it as subdigraphs. Digraphs contained in any n-chromatic digraph are called n-universal. We consider two conjectures: Burr's conjecture, which states that every oriented tree of order n is (2n-2)-universal, and El Sahili's conjeture which states that every oriented path of order n is n-universal. For oriented paths in general, the best bound is given by Burr, that is every oriented path of order n is (n − 1)^2-universal. Our objective is to study the existence of an integer k such that any digraph with a chromatic number k, contains a copy of a given oriented path with three blocks as its subdigraph. To achieve our goals, we rely significantly on fundamental concepts, including, induction on the order of a given digraph, final forests, leveling techniques, and strategic digraph decomposition methods. A path P (k1, k2, k3) is an oriented path consisting of k1 forward arcs, followed by k2 backward arcs, and then by k3 forward arcs. For the path P(k,1,l), we have confirmed El Sahili's conjecture in Hamiltonian digraphs. More clearly, we have established the existence of any path P (k, 1, l) of order n in any n-chromatic Hamiltonian digraph. And depending on this result concerning Hamiltonian digraphs, we proved the correctness of El Sahili's conjecture on a more general class of digraphs which is digraphs containing a Hamiltonian directed path. We introduce a new technique which is represented by a decomposition of the digraph into subdigraphs defined by a series of successive operations applied to the digraph relying on the famous theorem of Roy which establishes the existence of a directed path of order n in any n-chromatic digraph. This technique has proven to be instrumental in establishing new linear bounds for the chromatic number of digraphs that lack an oriented path with three blocks. In deed, using this technique, we proved that the path P(k,1,l) satisfies Burr's conjecture.Moreover, for any path with three blocks, P(k,l,r) we establish a linear bound for the chromatic number which improves all the previously reached bounds. In Part II we study the problem of S-packing coloring in graphs. Given a non-decreasing sequence S = (s1, s2, . . . , sk) of positive integers, an S-packing coloring of a graph G is a partition of the vertex set of G into k subsets{V1, V2, . . . , Vk} such that for each 1 ≤ i ≤ k, the distance between any two dis-tinct vertices u and v in Vi is at least si + 1. Our focus is centered on an intriguing conjecture proposed by Brešar et al., which states that packing chromatic number of the subdivision of any subcubic graph is at most 5. Our desired aim is to provide a confirmation of this conjecture for specific classes of subcubic graphs, and to address the unresolved issues raised within this subject matter. An observation for Gastineau and Togni states that if a graph G is (1, 1, 2, 2)-packing colorable, then the chromatic number of its subdivision graph S(G) is at most 5, and hence it satisfies the conjecture. Depending on this observation, and in order to prove the correctness of the conjecture for the class of cubic Halin graphs, we studied its S-packing coloring aiming to prove that it admits a (1, 1, 2, 2)- packing coloring. We proved that a cubic Halin graph is (1, 1, 2, 3)-packing colorable, then it is (1, 1, 2, 2)-packing colorable, and so we confirm the conjecture for this class. Moreover, Gastineau and Togni, after proving that every subcubic graph is (1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2)-packing colorbale, have posed an open problem on whether every subcubic graph is (1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2)-packing colorable. We answer this question in affirmative in the particular class we worked on; we proved that cubic Halin graphs are (1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2)-packing colorable

Suweon, Kim. "The political economy of aid-oriented foreign policy change: elite perspectives on mercantilism in Korea and Ghana." Thesis, University of the Western Cape, 2014. http://hdl.handle.net/11394/4021.
The thesis examines how elite perspectives on foreign aid affect the subsequent path of aid dependence. The focus is on aid-seeking foreign policy change. Two foreign policy change cases are examined for the study, which took place in Korea under Park Chung-hee and in Ghana under Rawlings through a lens of comparative historical analysis. The thesis aims to make two original contributions to knowledge. First, it explains recipient foreign policy using two different forms of mercantilism, and second, it reveals the dependent path created by the mercantilist oriented elite. Mercantilism in the thesis is used as dual-frameworked concept. First, it is a lens to see state behaviour. Despite the fact that mercantilism has been mainly used to explain a donor‘s behaviour, it can elucidate that of an aid-recipient state when the aid-seeking country is in dire need of the foreign aid for the survival of the state. The thesis applies mercantilism to explain aid-receiving countries‘behaviour. Second, more importantly, mercantilism also explains elite perspectives. The elite in aid receiving countries search for foreign aid not only for the wealth and power of their state, but also for the prosperity and survival of themselves. Mercantilism is used as an ostensible principle in practicing the private search for advantages of the elite. The thesis uses the dual-mercantilism idea to examine aid-seeking foreign policy in Korea and Ghana. In Korea, the elite saw the key to their survival in industrialising the nation, and their search for foreign aid took place based on that raison d’être. In Ghana, on the other hand, the elite found the way to their survival and prosperity in acquiring more foreign aid and the aid per se became the ultimate goal. The thesis finds industrial mercantilism a useful framework to understand the elite perspective in Korea

Object segmentation is one of the most fundamental and challenging problems in image processing and computer vision. The high-level and specific knowledge of the user is often required in the segmentation process, due to the presence of heterogeneous backgrounds, objects with poorly defined boundaries, field inhomogeneity, noise, artifacts, partial volume effects and their joint effects. Global properties of the object of interest, such as connectivity, shape constraints and boundary polarity, are useful high-level priors for its segmentation, allowing the customization of the segmentation for a given target object. In this work, we introduce a new method called Connected Oriented Image Foresting Transform (COIFT), which provides global optimal solutions according to a graph-cut measure in graphs, subject to the connectivity constraint in the Oriented Image Foresting Transform (OIFT), in order to ensure the generation of connected objects, as well as allowing the simultaneous control of the boundary polarity. While the use of connectivity constraints in other frameworks, such as in the min-cut/max-flow algorithm, leads to a NP-Hard problem, COIFT retains the low computational cost of OIFT. Experiments show that COIFT can considerably improve the segmentation of objects with thin and elongated parts, for the same number of seeds in segmentation based on markers.

Os sistemas de roteamento vêm se tornando ferramentas bastante úteis recentemente. Eles pretendem ajudar os usuários a encontrar o caminho mais adequado entre dois lugares de acordo com a distância da viagem, o tempo do percurso, e outros critérios. Esta dissertação apresenta uma arquitetura orientada a serviços e propõe um novo algoritmo de busca de rotas chamado Coolest Path. Este algoritmo habilita personalização multi-critério de acordo com a distância da viagem, o tempo, pontos turísticos e a simplicidade do caminho. Além disso, a dissertação propõe restrições a serem acrescentadas aos caminhos calculados: A-autonomy, onde o usuário define uma constante A e o algoritmo provê um caminho com N paradas, uma a cada distância A; e T-autonomy, onde o usuário define uma constante T e o algoritmo provê um caminho com N paradas, uma a cada T unidades de tempo. Essas paradas são realizadas em pontos de interesse (ex. pontos turísticos). Os algoritmos são fornecidos na forma de serviços Web, ou seja, são acessíveis de qualquer dispositivo conectado à Internet: um browser desktop, um celular ou um quiosque turístico localizado em um aeroporto. O serviço de roteamento é uma extensão ao framework iGIS.
Routing systems have become very powerful tools recently. They help users in finding the most suitable path between two places using travel distance, time and others criteria. This dissertation presents a routing system based on service-oriented architecture, which includes the proposal of an innovative algorithm known as coolest path. This algorithm enables multi-criteria personalization by using travel distance, time, points of interest and path simplicity. Moreover, constrained paths are also supported including the implementation of a-autonomy in road networks and the proposal of a new algorithm: t-autonomy, which returns the best path with N stops, such that the travel time between any two consecutive points in the path is not greater than t. These algorithms are implemented as an iGIS extension by using Web services technology.

Car use has become the dominant form of transportation, contributing to the health, environmental, and sprawl issues our nation is facing. Alternative modes of transport within urban environments are viable options in alleviating many of these problems. This thesis looks the habits and trends of bicyclists along the Midtown Greenway, a bicycle/pedestrian pathway that runs through Minneapolis, Minnesota and questions whether implementing non-auto throughways has encouraged bicyclists to bike further and to more destinations since its completion in 2006. The methods used to gather data were in-person five-minute surveys given to bicyclists, and analysis of existing data provided by non-profit organizations. Results included mapping each surveyed trip to see taken routes as well as qualitative and quantitative answers. Answers varied, but overall, it seemed that both commuting and leisure riders have increased their trips and distance within Minneapolis since completion of the path, advocating for off-street routes within the city.

In the airline industry, problems are various and complicated. Solving these problems aims at reducing costs and maximizing revenues. Revenues can be increased while improving the quality of service. For example, one way is to catch new passengers on existing flight connections or on new markets. The selection of new markets consists in determining network structure to operate, and to estimate passengers flow, their choice of itineraries as well as incomes and costs incurred by these decisions. Our research is about improving market planner engine. Milanamos develops an application for the analysis and simulation of markets intended for air-ports and airlines. It offers its customers a decision-making tool to analyze historical data andto simulate markets in order to find an economic opportunity. This project takes place earlierin the decision process. Thanks to a thorough data analysis, the air transport network could be modelized as a time-independent graph and stored in the Neo4j graph database. We then defined the Flight Radius problem which resolution allows to determine a sub-network centered around a flight for which market shares of the flight are meaningful. Several methods have beenproposed based on queries or on shortest path algorithms combined with acceleration and parallelism techniques. Our algorithms identify some new markets for a flight. Combining graph theory with databases offers new opportunities for analyzing and studying large networks

Because of increasing gate density and interconnects, the influence of coupling effects (cross-talk) on the recent integrated circuits are more and more seriously. Therefore, how to correctly and quickly evaluate the cross-talk effects in a circuit often represents the superiority of IC design and testing. This thesis discussed the problems of cross-talk induced delay and find out the correlation between cross-talk and delay by analyzing the paths of signal transmission. Some paths are highly sensitive to cross-talk induced delay. To analyze these paths can gain the delay effects and then come to cross-talk induced delay testing. This thesis proposed an algorithm of searching longest path to search the relationship between the longest path and cross-talk induced delay. Moreover, this thesis took advantage of capacitances to replace the transmission delay induced by coupling effects. By using this method to simulate the effects of cross-talk induced delay of the circuits. Pre-simulation, physical layout and post-simulation were presented to reveal that the feasibility and effectiveness of the proposed method.

Because the popularity of the portable equipments, power gets more attention than ever before, and becomes an important issue in addition to area and speed considerations in VLSI design. In this thesis, powering optimization technique, a.k.a. voltage scaling technique, is considered. As we know that power consumption is proportional to the square of the supplied voltage, then voltage scaling could get larger power reduction ratio with respect to other techniques. However, the voltage scaling technique has some problems that need to be overcome. First, mixed voltage sources will cause difficulties in circuit layout, and make routing overheads grow rapidly. Second, there are level converters needed to be inserted between low-voltage cells and high-voltage cells. Because level converters also consume power, reducing the number of level converters becomes an important issue. Finally, it is a critical problem to determine which cells in a circuit are selected to be replaced with low-voltage cells. Our path-oriented clustered voltage scaling technique solves the problems described above and add another 22% power reduction ratio over that of the original clustered voltage scaling technique.

This thesis is concerned about the dynamic simulation and the path analysis of the distributed systems. A set of computer aided software engineering (CASE) tools are provided for these purposes. In the thesis , the new paradigm for software develop- ment is discussed. The main purpose in using the new paradigm is to overcome the shortcomes of the conventional approach in soft- ware development. As a result , the cost to be used in the life cycle of software development is expected to be reduced. Based on the new paradigm , the concepts of object-oriented approach and Petri-net model are intergrated to build the design specifi- cation of the target system. The design specification can be si- mulation and analysed. Futhermore , with the animation capability , the effect of prototyping can be achieved. There are two major contributions of this thesis. First , an abstract design method is provided to build the design specifica- tion of the target system. The user needn't know the models to be used in the CASE system. Second , a graphical user interface is provided to support the animated dynamic simulation. The user can obtain the dynamic properties and possible execution status from the graphical user interface. As a result , the evaluation of the design method and the reduction of the gaps between the developer and the user can be achieved.

High-tech facilities have the following characteristics: short duration, complex interface, high investment, and numerous design changes. Cleanroom is the most important component of high-tech facilities. It not only connects construction and electrical engineering works, but has the highest demand for environmental control. Compared to the overall project, waffle slab works affect the progress of cleanroom-building the most, but it is a work with labor-intensive, working path unknown, work rate cannot be clearly quantified, and the work of the project is relatively difficult to control. Generally, path planning in construction projects is considered enough when it reached basic need, rarely use to improve efficiency because increase in expenditure and management costs. This study will compute the benefit of using path planning in repetitive work in the case of FRP(Fiberglass Reinforced Plastics) mold assembly and transportation. Through literature review, we know about the high-tech factory facilities construction characteristic, then analysis status and needs. Next, investigate workflow, need of working path and benefit of makeshift path by interviewing engineers; survey the accurate duration of each work and set functions of time and distance. A model is established by OOP(Object-oriented programming), estimate the total duration by this model. Plan the working path between temporary placement and each work unit, and then compute the summation of each work by Above-mentioned data, finally compare the result with before The result shows that makeshift path can help reduce total duration. Not only increase the efficiency but enhance safety. It also makes working path clearly and makes schedule be easy to control. Even in different field sizes, different distance and different functions, we can change parameters and get the most appropriate solution in that situation; it brings us a fast and convenient way to solve problems.

This research project involved the development of an assessment tool for secondary teachers. The objective of the project was to design and validate, with a group of experts, a rubric for analyzing the quality of Learning and Evaluation Situations (LESs) for students with learning difficulties—notably, those in the Work Oriented Training Path (WOTP). This research was designed to support WOTP teachers’ efforts to develop competency-based instruction. The LES is a powerful context for teaching and learning, but remains underutilized. The rubric’s conceptual framework, based on Legendre’s (2005) model of situated learning, facilitates (a) identification of the key features of LESs, and (b) analysis of their quality. Roque, Langevin and Riopel’s 1998 methodology—‘l’Analyse de la valeur pédagigique’ (AVP)—was used to analyze the effectiveness of the rubric for its intended users (i.e., WOTP teachers). This research project’s contribution to the field of education lies in its practicality. The rubric provides teachers with ready access to a reference bank of explanations/examples of key LES features, encouraging reflection regarding the quality of LESs they design.

Dabei stehen zunächst die religiösen Einstellungen zur christlich-abendländischen Kultur- und Werteorientierung, zur kirchlichen Arbeit als solche und zum christlichen Glauben im Forschungsinteresse, dann die Erfahrungen mit Gottesdienst, Kirche und Leben, Erwartungen, Bedürfnisse und Interessenlagen und schließlich der Stellenwert von Gebet und Bibel als Bausteine christlich-spiritueller Lebenspraxis. Ausgehend vom Gottesdienst, als Zentralort gemeindlichen Lebens, will die Forschung die Chancen gottesdienstkultureller Ausdifferenzierung ergründen und nimmt unter anderem alternative Gottesdienstformen in den Blick. Ehrenamtlicher Mitarbeit in der Kirche, gemeindlicher Kleingruppenarbeit und religiöse Erwachsenenbildungsangebote sind von potenzieller Bedeutung und wollen ebenso als Zugangswege kirchlicher Zukunftsentwicklung bedacht sein, wie der Stellenwert gemeindlicher Seelsorge- und Lebensberatung in Umbruchsituationen, oder die Einrichtung einer landeskirchlichen Gemeindegründungsbewegung in bisher unerreichten soziokulturellen Umgebungen. Die vielfältigen Erkenntnisse und potenziellen Möglichkeiten zukünftiger Kirche sind nicht zu trennen von einer missionstheologischen und ekklesiologischen Positionierung, die in der Herausbildung von kulturrelevanter, multioptionaler Gemeinde, als Gemeinschaft von Brüdern und Schwestern, das Zentralgeschehen nachhaltiger Gemeinde- und Kirchenentwicklung erkennt. Damit ist die Studie als Diskussionsbeitrag in den Entscheidungsprozessen aktueller Reformdebatte platziert.
Against the background of current reform processes in the Evangelische Landeskirche von Würrtemberg (protestant national church of Baden-Württemberg as) well as the Evangelische Kirche von Deutschland (protestant national church of Germany), this paper reflects and comments on the reformation efforts of the past years and places them into the context of empirical research. The aim of this survey is to investigate in an explorative manner various forms of pragmatic access to people hitherto unreached, who could be factored into the church's future social form. The participants were selected using a multilevel random selection process and 628 standardised interviews were subsequently carried out. To begin with, this research focuses on the interviewee's religious stance on christian-occidental culture and values,on the work of the church in general and on christian faith, then on their personal experience with services, church and life, their expectations, needs and interests, and lastly the significance of prayer and the bible as integral parts of a spiritual Christian life. Based on the service as the centre of a congregation's community life, this survey wants to fathom the chances of service differentiation and takes a look at alternative forms of service among other things. Volunteer work in the church, work in small groups as well as religious education programmes for adults are of potential importance and need to be taken into consideration as possible access paths to the future development of the church as well as the value of pastoral care and life coaching in situations of radical change or the start-up of a national movement to establish new congregations in hitherto unreached sociocultural environments. The manifold findings and potential possibilities of our church in the future cannot be separated from our position with regard to missiology and ecclesiology, which identifies the central development of congregation and church as the formation of culturally relevant, multioptional congregations, as the community of brothers and sisters. This survey thus contributes to the current discussion of reform and the associated decision-making process.
