Attempts to model form-function relationships for fossil plants rely on the facts that the physiological and structural requirements for plant growth, survival, and reproductive success are remarkably ...

We develop a modeling framework that estimates the effects of species identity and diversity on ecosystem function and permits prediction of the diversity-function relationship across different types ...

The presentation will introduce the DACM (Dimensional Analysis Conceptual Modeling) approach as a way to represent an engineering problem in the form of oriented colored graphs. The foundations of the ...

Modern robotic systems—in drones or autonomous vehicles, for example—use a variety of sensors, ranging from cameras and accelerometers to GPS modules. To date, their correct integration has required ...
