An Efficient Adaptive Beamforming Techniquewith Pattern Control Ability
2006 6th International Conference on ITS Telecommunications, 2006In this paper, we propose an iterative algorithm, which can achieve beampattern control and adaptive beamforming at the same time. Our proposed algorithm is computationally efficient because it avoids the calculation of matrix inverse which is often required by conventional beampattern synthesis algorithms.

Mobile adaptive networks with self-organization abilities
2010 7th International Symposium on Wireless Communication Systems, 2010In this paper we investigate the self-organization and cognitive abilities of adaptive networks when the individual agents are allowed to move in pursuit of an objective. The network as a whole acts as an adaptive entity with localized processing and is able to respond to stimuli in real-time. We apply the ensuing model to the foraging behavior of fish

Individual Differences in Multitasking Ability and Adaptability
Proceedings of the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society Annual Meeting, 2011Multitasking has become increasingly prevalent in people's personal and professional lives. Considerable research has attempted to identify the characteristics of people (i.e., individual differences) that predict multitasking ability, and more importantly, the ability to rapidly cope with changing task demands (adaptability).

Philosophy, Adapted Physical Activity and Dis/ability
Sport, Ethics and Philosophy, 2008In the formation of the multi-disciplinary field that investigates the participation of disabled persons in all forms of physical activity, little ethical and philosophical work has been published. This essay serves to contextualise a range of issues emanating from adapted physical activity (APA) and disability sports.
