Overview: Complete treatment of Cartesian impedance control problem for robots with flexible joints.Includes several simulations, experiments, and applications, in which the proposed controllers are evaluatedBy the dawn of the new millennium, robotics has undergone a major transf- mation in scope and dimensions. This expansion has been brought about by the maturity of the ?eld and the advances in its related technologies. From a largely dominant industrial focus, robotics has been rapidly expanding into the challenges of the human world. The new generation of robots is expected to safely and d

Overview: Discusses collaboration at various levels of analysis: individuals, teams, organizations and markets.Includes worker, management and consumer perspectives.Provides a balance of research insights, pracThis book examines how digital technologies enable collaboration as a way for individuals, teams and businesses to connect, create value, and harness new opportunities. Digital technologies have brought the world closer together but also created new barriers and divides. While it is now possible to connect almost instantly and seamlessly across the globe, collaboration comes at a cost; i

Overview: The purpose of our research is to enhance the efficiency of AI problem solvers by automating representation changes. We have developed a system that improves the description of input problems and selects an appropriate search algorithm for each given problem. Motivation. Researchers have accumulated much evidence on the impor- tance of appropriate representations for the efficiency of AI systems. The same problem may be easy or difficult, depending on the way we describe it and on the search algorithm we use. Previous work on the automatic im- provement of problem descriptions has mo

Overview: The characterization of the cellular and molecular mechanisms that mediate inflammation provides a foundation that supports future studies that will de- fine mechanisms more intimately. It encourages substantial optimism about the opportunities to understand the inflammatory process and to use that information to develop novel therapeutic approaches. Recent progress has defined the cells that mediate the inflammatory response, many of the inter- cellular transmitters, the receptors, signal transduction processes and regula- tory mechanisms. Thus, we now have the opportunity to unders

Overview: t Heinz Red! and Gunther Sch!ag Ludwig Boltzmann Institute for Experimental and Clinical Traumatology, Vienna, Austria The word "sepsis" derives from the Greek meaning decay or rottenness. Tradition- ally this term has been used to describe the process of infection accompanied by the host‘s systemic inflammatory response. Based on that understanding, previous clin- ical studies have been designed to include only patients with positive blood cultures [1, 2]. However, the frequent occurrence of a septic response without the demon- stration of microorganisms in the circulation has led t
