We present a solution for optimal triangulation in three views. The solution is guaranteed to find the optimal solution because it computes all the stationary points of the (maximum likelihood) objective function. Internally, the solution is found by computing roots of multivariate polynomial equations, directly solving the conditions for stationarity. The solver makes use of standard methods from

Since the European conquest of Latin America, mechanisms and justifications for unequal access to and control over natural resources have developed in tandem with racial ideologies and institutions. Conceiving race and racism as sociocultural systems that evolve historically with and through the organization of human-environment relations, this chapter considers cases in which racism supported the

This chapter starts with a brief review of research concerning work stress, coping, gender, and health. We also present results from a study which is part of a larger ongoing project: Collective stress and coping at work from a gender perspective. The study puts forth a complementary approach to the individualistic perspective by viewing coping as both an individual and a collective phenomenon. Th

This paper addresses multicarrier communications over the additive white Gaussian noise channel under a power spectral density (PSD) constraint. Depending on the shape of the PSD mask, straightforward power loading according to the waterfilling principle may yield poor throughput results. Several information processing techniques have been proposed to enhance the spectral properties of a multicarr

A reduced four-step scheme for Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis is presented here in the context of industrial type laboratory combustor. The present scheme has been optimized for a syngas mixture consisting of 10% CH4, 22.5% CO and 67.5% H2 by volume, and for a methane-air mixture. The optimization of the global scheme is done by comparing with the detailed San Diego mechanism using pe

he use of control-based methods for resource manage- ment in real-time computing and communication systems has gained a substantial interest recently. Applications ar- eas include performance control of web-servers, dynamic resource management in embedded systems, traffic con- trol in communication networks, transaction management in database servers, error control in software systems, and au- ton

When investigating different location and/or system designs the possible variables to take into consideration can differs between the alternatives. Different production system will have different optimal working conditions and hence should be compared with parameters suitable for the actual production system. When planning production and calculating production costs the batch size is of high inter

Få kontinenters historia är så präglad av myter och fördomar som Afrikas och ännu idag är det vanligt att beskriva dess historia som statisk och afrikanska samhällen som primitiva. 'Afrika - en kontinents ekonomiska och sociala historia' visar istället en dynamisk och variationsrik kontinent. Boken handlar om den ekonomiska och sociala utvecklingen i Afrika söder om Sahara i ett långsiktigt perspe
