Modelatge procedural de ciutats

L’objectiu d’aquest projecte és el desenvolupament d’una eina pel modelatge procedural de ciutats i xarxes de carrers. El modelatge de carrers és, per si sol, un bon tema on aplicar-hi la programació procedural. Les ciutats solen comptar amb patrons que es van repetint al llarg del territori. El fet de “repetir” una tasca suggereix sempre l’aplicació d’algun tipus de procediment per tal de simplificar i reduir la feina de l’usuari a l’hora de desenvolupar aquesta tasca. Shan utilitzat bàsicament tres eines diferents: Un modelador 3D, un llenguatge d’scripting i un llenguatge flexible per a definir els edificis

Model-based objects recognition in man-made environments

We describe a model-based objects recognition system which is part of an image interpretation system intended to assist autonomous vehicles navigation. The system is intended to operate in man-made environments. Behavior-based navigation of autonomous vehicles involves the recognition of navigable areas and the potential obstacles. The recognition system integrates color, shape and texture information together with the location of the vanishing point. The recognition process starts from some prior scene knowledge, that is, a generic model of the expected scene and the potential objects. The recognition system constitutes an approach where different low-level vision techniques extract a multitude of image descriptors which are then analyzed using a rule-based reasoning system to interpret the image content. This system has been implemented using CEES, the C++ embedded expert system shell developed in the Systems Engineering and Automatic Control Laboratory (University of Girona) as a specific rule-based problem solving tool. It has been especially conceived for supporting cooperative expert systems, and uses the object oriented programming paradigm

G+: Enhanced Traffic Grooming in WDM Mesh Networks using Lighttours

In this article, a new technique for grooming low-speed traffic demands into high-speed optical routes is proposed. This enhancement allows a transparent wavelength-routing switch (WRS) to aggregate traffic en route over existing optical routes without incurring expensive optical-electrical-optical (OEO) conversions. This implies that: a) an optical route may be considered as having more than one ingress node (all inline) and, b) traffic demands can partially use optical routes to reach their destination. The proposed optical routes are named "lighttours" since the traffic originating from different sources can be forwarded together in a single optical route, i.e., as taking a "tour" over different sources towards the same destination. The possibility of creating lighttours is the consequence of a novel WRS architecture proposed in this article, named "enhanced grooming" (G+). The ability to groom more traffic in the middle of a lighttour is achieved with the support of a simple optical device named lambda-monitor (previously introduced in the RingO project). In this article, we present the new WRS architecture and its advantages. To compare the advantages of lighttours with respect to classical lightpaths, an integer linear programming (ILP) model is proposed for the well-known multilayer problem: traffic grooming, routing and wavelength assignment The ILP model may be used for several objectives. However, this article focuses on two objectives: maximizing the network throughput, and minimizing the number of optical-electro-optical conversions used. Experiments show that G+ can route all the traffic using only half of the total OEO conversions needed by classical grooming. An heuristic is also proposed, aiming at achieving near optimal results in polynomial time

Mapping sub-flows to p2mp LSPs

In previous work we proposed a multi-objective traffic engineering scheme (MHDB-S model) using different distribution trees to multicast several flows. In this paper, we propose a heuristic algorithm to create multiple point-to-multipoint (p2mp) LSPs based on the optimum sub-flow values obtained with our MHDB-S model. Moreover, a general problem for supporting multicasting in MPLS networks is the lack of labels. To reduce the number of labels used, a label space reduction algorithm solution is also considered

Estudi del model dinàmic d’un robot submarí d’intervenció (IAUV) composat per un vehicle i un braç manipulador

Fins a la data d’avui, el grup VICOROB de la Universitat de Girona ha desenvolupat diversos vehicles autònoms (GARBÍ, URIS i ICTINEU). El projecte que comença aquest any té com objectiu desenvolupar un nou vehicle submarí autònom amb capacitat d’intervenció (I-AUV) gràcies a un braç manipulador. Aquest projecte final de carrera té com objectiu desenvolupar en entorn MATLAB un simulador d’un I-AUV, format per un AUV i un braç manipulador de n graus de llibertat per tal d’avaluar les reaccions dels moviments del braç, amb càrrega i sense, sobre el robot, i viceversa

Creació del Videojoc: “El Mensajero De Pekín”

L’ objectiu és el desenvolupament d'un videojoc (senzill) des d’ una idea inicial fins a un producte acabat i funcional (disseny del joc (la historia, els nivells, els personatges, etc.) com a concepte, programació, disseny gràfic, i finalment el poliment del producte per a que sigui un joc complet) utilitzant un software lliure. S'anomena "El Mensajero de Pekín" l'objectiu com a jugadors és aconseguir repartir uns paquets a una sèrie de bústies seguint una lògica de colors (cada paquet haurà de ser introduït a la bústia del mateix color per sumar punts). Es pot fer tant a mode individual, en el qual haurem de superar uns reptes que ens posi la màquina, com en mode multijugador, de dos a quatre jugadors, en el qual a part de repartir els paquets, haurem d'impedir que els rivals reparteixin els seus

Adaptive business intelligence for an open negotiation environment

Engineering of negotiation model allows to develop effective heuristic for business intelligence. Digital ecosystems demand open negotiation models. To define in advance effective heuristics is not compliant with the requirement of openness. The new challenge is to develop business intelligence in advance exploiting an adaptive approach. The idea is to learn business strategy once new negotiation model rise in the e-market arena. In this paper we present how recommendation technology may be deployed in an open negotiation environment where the interaction protocol models are not known in advance. The solution we propose is delivered as part of the ONE Platform, open source software that implements a fully distributed open environment for business negotiation

Abstracting qualitative information for process supervision

Supervisory systems evolution makes the obtaining of significant information from processes more important in the way that the supervision systems' particular tasks are simplified. So, having signal treatment tools capable of obtaining elaborate information from the process data is important. In this paper, a tool that obtains qualitative data about the trends and oscillation of signals is presented. An application of this tool is presented as well. In this case, the tool, implemented in a computer-aided control systems design (CACSD) environment, is used in order to give to an expert system for fault detection in a laboratory plant

Embedding objects into Matlab/Simulink for process supervision

This paper introduces how artificial intelligence technologies can be integrated into a known computer aided control system design (CACSD) framework, Matlab/Simulink, using an object oriented approach. The aim is to build a framework to aid supervisory systems analysis, design and implementation. The idea is to take advantage of an existing CACSD framework, Matlab/Simulink, so that engineers can proceed: first to design a control system, and then to design a straightforward supervisory system of the control system in the same framework. Thus, expert systems and qualitative reasoning tools are incorporated into this popular CACSD framework to develop a computer aided supervisory system design (CASSD) framework. Object-variables an introduced into Matlab/Simulink for sharing information between tools
