This book is a compilation of advanced research and applications on
robotic item picking and warehouse automation for e-commerce
applications. The works in this book are based on results that came
out of the Amazon Robotics Challenge from 2015-2017, which focused
on fully automated item picking in a warehouse setting, a topic
that has been assumed too complicated to solve or has been reduced
to a more tractable form of bin picking or single-item table top
picking. The book's contributions reveal some of the top solutions
presented from the 50 participant teams. Each solution works to
address the time-constraint, accuracy, complexity, and other
difficulties that come with warehouse item picking. The book covers
topics such as grasping and gripper design, vision and other forms
of sensing, actuation and robot design, motion planning,
optimization, machine learning and artificial intelligence,
software engineering, and system integration, among others. Through
this book, the authors describe how robot systems are built from
the ground up to do a specific task, in this case, item picking in
a warehouse setting. The compiled works come from the best robotics
research institutions and companies globally.
The book is comprised of lectures and selected contributions
presented at the Enzo Levi and XVI Annual Meeting of the Fluid
Dynamic Division of the Mexican Physical Society in 2010. It is
aimed at fourth year undergraduate and graduate students, as well
as scientists in the fields of physics, engineering and chemistry
with an interest in fluid dynamics from the experimental and
theoretical point of view. The lectures are introductory and avoid
the use of complicated mathematics. The other selected
contributions are also geared to fourth year undergraduate and
graduate students. The fluid dynamics applications include
multiphase flow, convection, diffusion, heat transfer, rheology,
granular material, viscous flow, porous media flow, geophysics and
astrophysics. The material contained in the book includes recent
advances in experimental and theoretical fluid dynamics and will be
of great use to those involved in either teaching and/or research.

The UML 2004 conference was held in Lisbon (Portugal) from October
11 through October 15, 2004. It was the seventh conference in a
series of annual events that started in 1998. UML has rapidly
become one of the leading venues to present and discuss the
development of object-oriented modeling. In order to re?ect the
changes in the ?eld, the UML conference series will be continued
from 2005 onwards under the name MODELS (Model Driven En- neering,
Languages and Systems).
Inane?orttomakethisyear'sconferencemoreusefulande?ectiveforawider
community, including academics and practitioners working in areas
related to UML and modeling in general, a set of satellite events
was organized, including workshopsdedicatedtospeci?cresearchtopics,
anindustrytrack, aposter/demo session, and a tools exhibit. This
volume is a compilation of the contributions presented at these
satellite events. Workshops at UML 2004 took place during the ?rst
three days of the conference(fromOctober10to12).
Followingthetraditionofprevious UML conferences, UML
2004workshopsprovidedacollaborativeforumforgroups of (typically 15
to 30) participants to exchange recent or preliminary results, to
conduct intensive discussions on a particular topic, or to
coordinate e?orts between representatives of a technical community.
Ten workshops were held, covering a variety of hot topics, which
have been covered in the workshop - ports contained in this volume.
Each workshop lasted for a full day. A novelty with respect to
previous UML conferences was the inclusion of a Doctoral Symposium,
which was well received, to provide an explicit space for young -
searchers developing their thesis on some aspect related to UML.

This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th
International Conference on the Quality of Information and
Communications Technology, QUATIC 2020, held in Faro, Portugal*, in
September 2020. The 27 full papers and 12 short papers were
carefully reviewed and selected from 81 submissions. The papers are
organized in topical sections: quality aspects in machine learning,
AI and data analytics; evidence-based software quality engineering;
human and artificial intelligences for software evolution; process
modeling, improvement and assessment; software quality education
and training; quality aspects in quantum computing; safety,
security and privacy; ICT verification and validation; RE, MDD and
agile. *The conference was held virtually due to the COVID-19
pandemic.
La sombra de un antiguo camarada camina por la oscuridad. En la
penumbra ha urdido un maquiavelico plan que jamas se descubrira,
incluso una vez ejecutado con maestria. La aventura parece haber
acabado con la muerte de Alejandro Prim, pero nada mas lejos de la
realidad. Tan solo era el principio, la antesala de a verdadera
trama, esa que empieza en la carcel de Siberia enterrada bajo un
antiguo monasterio y termina en una taberna de Sevilla bautizada
bajo el nombre del Tio Luis
