Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Inspired by the octopus and the golden wheel spider, soft robots with liquid crystal elastomer arc fibers as appendages are fabricated to transcend surface constraints through an elevated center of mass and minimal contact footprints. By leveraging curvature‐encoded deformation‐recovery cycles, these robots exhibit contractile, torsional, and flexural ...

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Transducers convert physical signals into electrical and optical representations, yet each mechanism is bounded by intrinsic trade‐offs across bandwidth, sensitivity, speed, and energy. This review maps transduction mechanisms across physical scale and frequency, showing how heterogeneous integration and multiphysics co‐design transform isolated ...

How Agile is Agile Enough? Toward a Theory of Agility in Software Development [PDF]
, 2006 This paper outlines a theory of software development agility that draws upon a model of IT innovations. We examine how both exploration and exploitation impact software development agility. We propose a sequential model of learning in which agility is driven by exploration versus exploitation needs and development agility is influenced by learning ...

Agile Methods for Agile Universities [PDF]
, 2013 Universities are strange organizations. They are charged with multiple, perhaps contradictory, and certainly mutually complexifying missions. These include teaching, research, and service to local, national and international communities, economic regeneration and urban revitalization.

Learning Highly Dynamic Skills Transition for Quadruped Jumping Through Constrained Space
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A quadruped robot masters dynamic jumps through constrained spaces with animal‐inspired moves and intelligent vision control. This hierarchical learning approach combines imitation of biological agility with real‐time trajectory planning. Although legged animals are capable of performing explosive motions while traversing confined spaces, replicating ...
