Computational Processes and Incompleteness [PDF]
We introduce a formal definition of Wolfram's notion of computational process based on cellular automata, a physics-like model of computation. There is a natural classification of these processes into decidable, intermediate and complete. It is shown that in the context of standard finite injury priority arguments one cannot establish the existence of ...

Process-Oriented Parallel Programming with an Application to Data-Intensive Computing [PDF]
We introduce process-oriented programming as a natural extension of object-oriented programming for parallel computing. It is based on the observation that every class of an object-oriented language can be instantiated as a process, accessible via a remote pointer.

Algorithmic design of origami mechanisms and tessellations
Origami is a promising source of inspiration in designing foldable structures and reconfigurable metamaterials. Here, building on exact folding kinematic conditions, an algorithmic design of rigidly-foldable origami structures is presented, allowing the ...

Industrial evaluation of design heuristics for additive manufacturing
Additive manufacturing (AM) has gained prominence over the last 15 years and become a viable manufacturing option. Since there is great industrial interest to implement serial production of products using AM, the education of engineers in design for ...

Imperative process algebra and models of computation [PDF]
Studies of issues related to computability and computational complexity involve the use of a model of computation. Pivotal to such a model are the computational processes considered. Processes of this kind can be described using an imperative process algebra based on ACP (Algebra of Communicating Processes).

Phase field modelling of hopper crystal growth in alloys
Here we use phase field to model and simulate “hopper” crystals, so named because of their underlying cubic structure but with a hopper-like depression on each of the six faces.

Auxetic structures used in kinesiology tapes can improve form-fitting and personalization
Each year 65% of young athletes and 25% of physically active adults suffer from at least one musculoskeletal injury that prevents them from continuing with physical activity, negatively influencing their physical and mental well-being.

The current methods of classifying plant disease images are mainly affected by the training phase and the characteristics of the target dataset. Collecting plant samples during different leaf life cycle infection stages is time-consuming.

Computation Hierarchy for In-Network Processing [PDF]
In this paper, we explore the network level architecture of distributed sensor systems that perform in-network processing. We propose a system with heterogeneous nodes that organizes into a hierarchal structure dictated by the computational capabilities.

Information Processing, Computation, and Cognition [PDF]
Computation and information processing are among the most fundamental notions in cognitive science. They are also among the most imprecisely discussed. Many cognitive scientists take it for granted that cognition involves computation, information processing, or both - although others disagree vehemently.
