The first law of time travel: The Time Machine and thermodynamics. (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Alder, E. (2013, April). The first law of time travel: The Time Machine and thermodynamics. Paper presented at British Society for Literature and Science Annual Conference

Critical analyses of H. G. Wells’s The Time Machine (1895) have attended closely to themes of biology, such as evolutionary degeneration, but those of physics have not been treated with comparable depth. While many accounts of The Time Machine do con... Read More about The first law of time travel: The Time Machine and thermodynamics..

Diagnosis of induction machines under non-stationary conditions: Concepts and tools (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Riera-Guasp, M., Pons-Llinares, J., Climente-Alarcon, V., Vedreno-Santos, F., Pineda-Sanchez, M., Antonino-Daviu, J., Puche-Panadero, R., Perez-Cruz, J., & Roger-Folch, J. (2013, March). Diagnosis of induction machines under non-stationary conditions: Concepts and tools. Presented at 2013 IEEE Workshop on Electrical Machines Design, Control and Diagnosis (WEMDCD)

This paper is focused on fault diagnostic methodologies suited for induction machines which are subjected to fluctuating loads and speeds during their normal duty cycle. In these cases, the load and speed fluctuate continuously, near their rated... Read More about Diagnosis of induction machines under non-stationary conditions: Concepts and tools.

Intelligent control for adaptive video streaming (2013)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Menkovski, V., & Liotta, A. (2013). Intelligent control for adaptive video streaming. . https://doi.org/10.1109/ICCE.2013.6486825

We present an autonomous learning agent for adaptive video streaming in best effort networks. The agent learns an optimal control strategy in regards to the delivered quality of experience without the need for implementation of a complex heuristics.
