Voting Issues Discussion, IEEE 802.21-05-217-01

January 1, 2005
Author(s)
Nada T. Golmie
We have implemented a quantum key distribution (QKD) system with polarization encoding at 850 nm over 1 km of optical fiber. The high-speed management of the bit-stream, generation of random numbers and processing of the sifting algorithm are all handled

Camera Calibration for a Manufacturing Inspectio Workstation

December 31, 2004
Author(s)
T M. Tsai
A CCD camera mounted on a manufacturing part inspection workstation is calibrated for measuring 3D part geometry. It is calibrated by using computer algorithms to analyze data collected from a pre-designed calibration image pattern. The calibration image

Coordinated Motion Control for Industrial Boomlifts

December 31, 2004
Author(s)
Richard J. Norcross, Robert Bunch
This project coordinated the motions of the individual actuators on an industrial boomlift. The work was funded by the U.S. Navy ManTech Program to augment the Navy's development of an environmentally friendly paint stripper. The project successfully

Dynamic Modeling and Robust Controller Design of a Two-Stage Parallel Cable Robot

December 31, 2004
Author(s)
S R. Oh, K K. Mankala, S K. Agrawal, James S. Albus
Able robots have been extensively used for the loading and unloading of cargo in shipping industries. In this paper, we look at a two stage cable robot, i.e., a cable robot with two moving platforms connected in series. The sea condition introduces

Empirical Comparison of Predictive Models for Mobile Agents

December 31, 2004
Author(s)
A E. Henninger, Rajmohan (. Madhavan
The need to predict an agent's intents or future actions has been well documented in multi-agent system's literature and has been motivated by both systematically-practical and psychologically-principled concerns. However, little effort has focused on the

Limits of Storage in Magnetic Materials

December 31, 2004
Author(s)
Thomas J. Silva
I summarize what is currently known about how thermal effects limit the storage capacity of magnetic disk drives. The physics of thermal fluctuations in magnetic materials is treated in some detail, though the essential points are covered in a tutorial
