摘要： A distributed market based control assembly used in conjunction with fixed or movable structures. Typically multiple actuators are attached to the structure, with each of the multiple actuators having an actuator controller to control actuator applied force. Sensors are used for measuring structure movement, and a marketwire is connected to each actuator controller to convey price information to the actuator controllers by analog fluctuations in electrical characteristics of the marketwire. Actuators can be used to stabilize a fixed structure against movement, or alternatively can be used to control movement of movable structures from defined first positions to second positions (e.g. moving a robotic arm so its tip moves from point A to point B).

摘要： Embedded in a transport assembly are arrays of microelectromechanical devices for detecting and making adjustments for perceived changes in their environment. The arrays of sensors and actuators are tightly coupled to each other so that coordinated action of neighboring actuators minimizes the cumulative effort required to move the object. The sensors and actuators are controlled using a multi-hierarchical organization of computational elements. Each computational element in lower levels of the multi-hierarchy communicates with one or more higher level computational elements to define zones of control. An object moving along the transport assembly lies principally in the domain of at least one zone of control. As an object moves along the transport assembly, dominant control over the object moves along the transport with the object. Because the zones of control overlap, dominant control over an object smoothly transitions between groups of computational elements thereby minimizing discontinuities at control boundaries.

摘要： Embedded in a transport assembly are arrays of microelectromechanical sensors and actuators for detecting and propelling an object. A controller having defined therein local computational agents and a global controller controls the array of sensors and actuators. The global controller provides global operating constraints to the local computational agents. The global operating constraints are developed using an approximate specification of system behavior based on simplified assumptions of an idealized system as well as limited sensor information aggregated from the array of sensors. The local computational agents compute a desired local actuator response using sensor information from a localized grouping of sensor units. To improve the accuracy of the global operating constraints, the local computational agents reduce differences between a global actuator response, computed using the global operating constraints, and the desired local actuator response. In addition, the local computational agents reduce the correlation among different parts of the transport assembly by reducing differences between actuator responses of neighborhoods of local computational agents.

摘要： A market based controller controls the motion of an object on a transport assembly. The transport assembly is formed using sensors and actuators that are proximately coupled in physical space. To efficiently allocate a fixed amount of air pressure directed to the actuators, the market controller maps each market agent to points in space on the transport assembly, as well as, points in time relative to a system clock. Using information gathered from the sensor units, each market agent determines whether to bid on the fixed amount of air pressure each bid interval. Using the bids submitted by the market agents, a market equilibrium price and quantity are computed by a market auctioneer. The air pressure purchased by each market agent is then distributed to the actuators mapped thereto.

摘要： An adaptive self-repairing processor array comprising a plurality of identical processing cells arranged in parallel orthogonal columns and rows to form a two dimensional matrix, each of said cells in the array having logic means and a memory for storing a memory state. The first row of the cells in the array forms a parallel input to the array. The last row of said cells in the array forms a parallel output from the array. The cells in the intermediate cells rows between the first and last rows are coupled to at least one cell in a previous cell row. The logic means in each cell computes a new data value based upon the input or inputs from such previous row cells and its present memory state. Each cell is further coupled to at least one cell in the subsequent row of cells. The computed new data value is provided as an output to the coupled cell or cells in the subsequent cell row. Each of the intermediate row cells are coupled to immediately adjacent neighbor cells of the same row to supply the new data value to these neighbor cells and correspondingly receive computed new data values from these same cells. The logic means in each cell compares the new data values received from such neighbor cells with its computed new value and accordingly updates its memory state based upon the results of the comparison.

摘要： A method for enabling privacy and trust in electronic communities is disclosed. A major impediment to using recommendation systems and collective knowledge for electronic commerce is the reluctance of individuals to reveal preferences in order to find groups of people that share them. An equally important barrier to fluid electronic commerce is the lack of agreed upon trusted third parties. We propose new non-third party mechanisms to overcome these barriers. Our solutions facilitate finding shared preferences, discovering communities with shared values, removing disincentives posed by liabilities, and negotiating on behalf of a group. We adapt known techniques from the cryptographic literature to enable these new capabilities.
