Like all magazines, we retouch images removing wrinkles in fabric, stray hairs, a few zits, random bra straps but we never alter the way the girls on our pages really look. It crucial that we represent girls of all shapes, sizes, and skin tones for their real beauty. Our Body Peace Project is one of the cornerstones of our mission: We want every girl to stop obsessing about what her body looks like and start appreciating it for what it can do! While we work hard behind the scenes to make sure we being authentic, your notes made me realize that ....etc

Image Search Engine.

The image searching technology is similar to the websearching. But the spider crawler will take care of only images.

The keywords for the image search are based on the filename of the image, the page link text pointing to the image, and text adjacent to the image. When the crawler encountered an image, a thumbnail will be cached along with the keywords and orginal url.

When searching for an image each matching image is displayed. Then when clicking on a thumbnail, the image is displayed in a frame at the top of the ....etc

FILL ALGORITHMS

Given the edges defining a polygon, and a color for the polygon, we need to fill all the pixels inside the polygon.
Three different algorithms:
1. Scan-line fill
2. Boundary fill
3. Flood fill
Boundary Fill
Suppose that the edges of the polygon has already been colored.
Suppose that the interior of the polygon is to be colored a different color from the edge.
Suppo ....etc

Study on the Mechanism and Locomotion Strategy
for New Snake-Like Robot Active Cord Mechanism


This paper presents ACM-S1 (Active Cord Mechanism
- Slime model 1), a snake-like robot. Conventional
snake-like robots have difficulty negotiation uneven
ground. In this paper, we propose “a bending
and expanding joint unit” which has three degrees
of freedom (3DOF) in inchworm/angleworm-like
motion and has been developed to solve this problem.
The ACM-S1 we developed is composed of a series
of these joint units. ....etc

Abstract”
A sustainable market-like computational grid has two characteristics: it must allow resource providers and resource consumers to make autonomous scheduling decisions, and both parties of providers and consumers must have sufficient incentives to stay and play in the market. In this paper, we formulate this intuition of optimizing incentives for both parties as a dual-objective scheduling problem. The two objectives identified are to maximize the success rate ....etc

Most wheeled mobile robot (WMR) controllers have been developed based on nonskidding and nonslipping assumptions. Unfortunately, wheel skidding and slipping are inevitable due to wheel tire-deformation; consequently, the stability and performance of these controllers are not guaranteed. This brief aims to develop a global positioning system (GPS)-based path following a controller for a car-like wheeled mobile robot in the presence of wheel skidding and slipping. The proposed control scheme uses real-time kinematic (RTK)-GPS and other aiding sen ....etc

Abstract
The next time your lamp needs a new light bulb, you might change the lamp shade instead of the light bulb.

New research out of Germany and published in a recent issue of the journal Nature shows that cheap and thin organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs) can create white light as bright as any compact fluorescent bulb for nearly half the electricity as many compact fluorescent light bulbs.

This uses cheap, well-known, and well-established materials, said Sebastian Reineke, a coauthor on the paper from the Institut fur Ang ....etc
