Bruges, Belgium; 2006: 119-124.Artificial neural networks are intended to be used in future nanoelectronics since their biological examples seem to be robust to noise. In this paper, we analyze the robustness of Local Cluster Neural Networks and determine upper bounds on the mean square error for noise contaminated weights and inputs

    A Low Cost Controller Board for Teaching Robotics

    No full text
    This paper presents the Smarty Board; a new micro-controller board designed specifically for the robotics teaching needs of Australian schools. The primary motivation for this work was the lack of commercially available and cheap controller boards that would have all their components including interfaces on a single board. Having a single board simplifies the construction of programmable robots that can be used as platforms for teaching and learning robotics. Reducing the cost of the board as much as possible was one of the main design objectives. The target user groups for this device are the secondary and tertiary students, and hobbyists. Previous studies have shown that equipment cost is one of the major obstacles for teaching robotics in Australia.\ud The new controller board was demonstrated at high-school seminars. In these demonstrations the new controller board was used for controlling two robots that we built. These robots are available as kits. Given the strong demand from high-school teachers, new kits will be developed for the next robotic Olympiad to be held in Australia in 2006.\u

    La recepción española de Camillo Sitte

    No full text
    C. Sitte's work Town Planning and Building on Artistics Principies first appeared in Spanish in 1926, in an excellent version of the 5th Gennan edition of 1922 and is the last importan! work to make knowledgable analysis of the principies of town planning available in Spain and South America. The present article surveys reaction to Sitte' s ideas from the beginning of the 20th century. Such authors as J Urioste, E.M. Repulles, E. Chanourdie, R. Giralt Casadesus, G. Forteza, Antonio Gómez Millán and Emilio Casona (The trasnlator of Sitte's work) are memioned and the effects of their commentaries on the spread of Sitte's ideas in professional, academic and other interested circles are discussed. Sitte is placed within the context of conservative renovation en town planning in the frist decades of this century, and is seen to remain an importan! figure in the field.El libro Construcción de Ciudades según principios artísticos de C. Sitte apareció en castellano en 1926 (en una excelente versión de la quinta edición alemana de 1922), culminando, más que iniciando, la difusión cualificada de los principios del arte urbano en España y América Latina. En este artículo se recogen manifestaciones relevantes de la recepción de las ideas de Sitte desde los inicios del siglo XX. Aparecen figuras como J. Urioste, E. M. Repullés, E. Chanourdie, V. J. Jaeschke, L. Jaussely, C. de Montoliú, A. Llopart, R. Giralt Casadesús, G. Forteza, Antonio Gómez Millán, en fin, Emilio Canosa, traductor del libro, que con diversa incidencia acogen y propagan su doctrina en ámbitos profesionales, académicos o ciudadanos. Por tanto Sitte se inscribe en el contexto más operativo de la corriente de renovación conservadora de la cultura urbana del primer tercio de siglo, y hoy es un importante punto de referencia en los reajustes que en esa cultura tiene lugar

    Effective description of domain wall strings

    No full text
    The analysis of domain wall dynamics is often simplified to one-dimensional physics. For domain walls in thin films, more realistic approaches require the description as two-dimensional objects. This includes the study of vortices and curvatures along the domain walls as well as the influence of boundary effects. Here we provide a theory in terms of soft modes that allows us to analytically study the physics of extended domain walls and their stability. By considering irregularly shaped skyrmions as closed domain walls, we analyze their plasticity and compare their dynamics with those of circular skyrmions. Our theory directly provides an analytical description of the excitation modes of magnetic skyrmions, previously accessible only through sophisticated micromagnetic numerical calculations and spectral analysis. These analytical expressions provide the scaling behavior of the different physics on parameters that experiments can test
