This involves autonomy in energy (using batteries, solar panels, turbines...), sensor data processing (compass, GPS, wind sensor...), actuators control (rudder and sail angle control...) and decision making (embedded computer with adequate algorithms). Although robotic sailing is a relatively new field of research, several applications exist for this type of robots : oceanographic and hydrographic research, maritime environment monitoring, meteorology, harbor safety, assistance and rescue in dangerous areas... Over the last decade, several events such as the Microtransat challenge, the WRSC/IRSC and SailBot have been set up to stimulate research and development around robotic sailing. These proceedings cover the current and future academic and technology challenges raised by the development of autonomous sailboat robots presented at the WRSC/IRSC (World Robotic Sailing Championship/International Robotic Sailing Conference) 2013, in Brest, France, 2-6 September 2013. 606 $aAutomatic control 606 $aRobotics 606 $aAutomation 606 $aArtificial intelligence 606 $aControl, Robotics, Automation 606 $aArtificial Intelligence 615 0$aAutomatic control. 615 0$aRobotics. 615 0$aAutomation. 615 0$aArtificial intelligence. 615 14$aControl, Robotics, Automation. 615 24$aArtificial Intelligence. 676 $a006.3 676 $a620 676 $a629.8 676 $a629.892 701 $aJaulin$b Luc$0145512 701 $aLe Bars$b Fabrice$01763090 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299474403321 996 $aRobotic sailing 2013$94203347 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03936nam 22007215 450 001 9910416093303321 005 20250610110408.0 010 $a9783030502287 010 $a3030502287 024 7 $a10.1007/978-3-030-50228-7 035 $a(CKB)4100000011354677 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6273599 035 $a(DE-He213)978-3-030-50228-7 035 $a(Perlego)3481355 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC6270880 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC29089209 035 $a(iGPub)SPNA0068845 035 $a(EXLCZ)994100000011354677 100 $a20200718d2020 u| 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 10$aAustralia in the Age of International Development, 1945-1975 $eColonial and Foreign Aid Policy in Papua New Guinea and Southeast Asia /$fby Nicholas Ferns 205 $a1st ed. 2020. 210 1$aCham :$cSpringer International Publishing :$cImprint: Palgrave Macmillan,$d2020. 215 $a1 online resource (239 pages) 225 1 $aSecurity, Conflict and Cooperation in the Contemporary World,$x2731-6815 311 08$a9783030502270 311 08$a3030502279 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references and index. 327 $aIntroduction -- 1.

During this period, the academic and political understandings of development consolidated and informed Australian attempts to provide economic assistance to the poorer regions to its north. Development was central to the Australian colonial administration of PNG, as well as its Colombo Plan aid in Asia. In addition to examining Australia's perception of international development, this book also demonstrates how these debates and policies informed Australia's understanding of its own development. This manifested itself most clearly in Australia's behavior at the 1964 United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). The book concludes with a discussion of development and Australian foreign aid in the decade leading up to Papua New Guinea's independence, achieved in 1975. 410 0$aSecurity, Conflict and Cooperation in the Contemporary World,$x2731-6815 606 $aAustralasia 606 $aHistory 606 $aWorld politics 606 $aEconomic development 606 $aImperialism 606 $aAustralian History 606 $aPolitical History 606 $aDevelopment Studies 606 $aImperialism and Colonialism 615 0$aAustralasia. 615 0$aHistory. 615 0$aWorld politics. 615 0$aEconomic development. 615 0$aImperialism. 615 14$aAustralian History. 615 24$aPolitical History. 615 24$aDevelopment Studies. 615 24$aImperialism and Colonialism. 676 $a330.9953 676 $a900 700 $aFerns$b Nicholas$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0894273 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910416093303321 996 $aAustralia in the Age of International Development, 1945-1975$94330160 997 $aUNINA
