Design, implementation and experiment of a YeSQL Web Crawler [PDF]

open access: greenarXiv, 2012
We describe a novel, "focusable", scalable, distributed web crawler based on GNU/Linux and PostgreSQL that we designed to be easily extendible and which we have released under a GNU public licence. We also report a first use case related to an analysis of Twitter's streams about the french 2012 presidential elections and the URL's it contains.

Optimal Locomotion for Limbless Crawlers [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical Review E, 2022
Limbless crawling is ubiquitous in biology, from cells to organisms. We develop and analyze a model for the dynamics of one-dimensional elastic crawlers, subject to active stress and deformation-dependent friction with the substrate. We find that the optimal active stress distribution that maximizes the crawler's center of mass displacement given a ...

Soft robotic origami crawler

open access: yesScience Advances, 2022
Biomimetic soft robotic crawlers have attracted extensive attention in various engineering fields, owing to their adaptivity to different terrains. Earthworm-like crawlers realize locomotion through in-plane contraction, while inchworm-like crawlers exhibit out-of-plane bending-based motions. Although in-plane contraction crawlers demonstrate effective

A Magneto-Active Elastomer Crawler with Peristaltic and Caterpillar Locomotion Patterns

open access: yesActuators, 2021
In this work we present a soft crawler fabricated using a magneto-active elastomer. The crawler is controlled by an external magnetic field to produce two locomotion patterns: peristaltic and caterpillar crawling.

Myanmar Web Pages Crawler

open access: bronzeInternational Journal on Web Service Computing, 2015
Nowadays web pages are implemented in various kinds of languages on the Web and web crawlers are important for search engine. Language specific crawlers are crawlers that traverse and collect the relative web pages using the successive URls of web page. There are very few research areas in crawling for Myanmar Language web sites.

Comparative analysis of some search engines

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2010
We compared the information retrieval performances of some popular search engines (namely, Google, Yahoo, AlltheWeb, Gigablast, Zworks and AltaVista and Bing/MSN) in response to a list of ten queries, varying in complexity.
