We all know the reputation and trust are essential elements for which our society works. Also, are crucial in the new virtual societies. UAB researchers have developed a computational model of cognitive reputation that uses units called agents with beliefs, desires and intentions to make decisions based...
Cell phones and other wireless communications systems became an important driver of consumer electronics. Therefore, issues like the increase of battery life and area reduction are now important milestones. A group of researchers of the Electronic Engineering department of the UAB are studying the...
In the field of wireless communication, ultra-wideband technology allows obtaining very high data-rates with diverse applications such as high accuracy radars and multimedia transmissions. However, the particular characteristics of ultra-wideband signals make their...
The undesired noise in digital communication distort the message that is transmitted, so scientists study how to improve the channel codes, a mathematical tool that allows to detect and to correct the mistakes ocurred in the transmission of information. UAB researchers have just defined new codes of channel that allow to obtain better parameters...
A multidisciplinary research group has been awarded with a presitigius international prize. Their work consisted in to developed a satellites image fusion technique. This equipment, in wich he UAB collaborated, has win the 2006 Data Contest "Fusion of Multispectral and Panchromatic Images", organized by the Technical Committee of the IEEE...
The international scientific community is now investigating possible substitutes for silicon oxide, one of the main components of microelectronic devices, by looking at other materials that have better electrical properties and are compatible with the CMOS (complementary metal-oxide semiconductor) manufacturing processes. The UAB's Department...
