The Chinese Ground Follow-up Telescope (C-GFT) is an optical facility upgraded to support the Space Variable Objects Monitor mission (\textit{SVOM}). Located at the Jilin Observation Station, it is capable of rapidly identifying and…

In this paper we present a system for monitoring and controlling dynamic network circuits inside the USLHCNet network. This distributed service system provides in near real-time complete topological information for all the circuits,…

The Large Binocular Telescope (LBT) is a world-leading astronomical observatory, where the italian partnership has played an important role in increasing the telescope's productivity, both through an optimized observing strategy and through…

We describe the remote facilities operated by the Southeastern Association for Research in Astronomy (SARA), a consortium of colleges and universities in the US partnered with Lowell Observatory, the Chilean National Telescope Allocation…

Many unmanned aerial vehicle surveillance and monitoring applications require observations at precise locations over long periods of time, ideally days or weeks at a time (e.g. ecosystem monitoring), which has been impractical due to…

The RCT 1.3-meter telescope, formerly known as the Kitt Peak National Observatory (KPNO) 50-inch telescope, has been refurbished as a fully robotic telescope, using an autonomous scheduler to take full advantage of the observing site…

Despite the extensive demonstration of robotic systems for both cataract and vitreoretinal procedures, existing technologies or mechanisms still possess insufficient accuracy, precision, and degrees of freedom for instrument manipulation or…

Topology inference for network systems (NSs) plays a crucial role in many areas. This paper advocates a causality-based method based on noisy observations from a single trajectory of a NS, which is represented by the state-space model with…

Low Earth Orbit (LEO) satellite networks connect millions of devices on Earth and offer various services, such as data communications, remote sensing, and data harvesting. As the number of services increases, LEO satellite networks will…

The Calar Alto Observatory, located at 2168m height above the sea level in continental Europe, holds a significant number of astronomical telescopes and experiments, covering a large range of the electromagnetic domain, from gamma-ray to…

This paper aims at giving an update on the most versatile adaptive optics fed instrument to date, the well known and successful NACO . Although NACO is only scheduled for about two more years at the Very Large Telescope (VLT), it keeps on…

To build upon the goals of the upcoming INTEGRAL mission, the next generation soft gamma-ray (0.2-20 MeV) observatory will require improved sensitivity to nuclear line emission while maintaining high spectral resolution. We present the…

The CMS detector is a general-purpose apparatus that detects high-energy collisions produced at the LHC. Online Data Quality Monitoring of the CMS electromagnetic calorimeter is a vital operational tool that allows detector experts to…

We present a precise thermometry system to monitor room-temperature components of a telescope for radio-astronomy such as cosmic microwave background (CMB) observation. The system realizes precision of 1 mK${\rm \sqrt{s}}$ on a timescale of…

Since May 2006, the two STELLA robotic telescopes at the Izana observatory in Tenerife, Spain, delivered an almost uninterrupted stream of scientific data. To achieve such a high level of autonomous operation, the replacement of all…

We report non-destructive 3-dimensional imaging and analysis techniques for material returned by the Stardust cometary collector. Our technique utilizes 3-dimensional laser scanning confocal microscopy (3D LSCM) to image whole Stardust…

We have used an existing, robotic, multi-lens, all-sky camera system, coupled to a dedicated data reduction pipeline, to automatically determine orbital parameters of satellites in Low Earth Orbit (LEO). Each of the fixed cameras has a…

Astronomical facilities at the high-altitude observatory Terskol in the Northern Caucasus include optical telescopes with diameters up to 2 m, their instrumentation (high-resolution spectrometers, high-speed photometers, CCDs, etc.), as…

Located on the campus of the Thacher School in Southern California, the Thacher Observatory has a legacy of astronomy research and education that dates back to the late 1950's. In 2016, the observatory was fully renovated with upgrades…

We introduce a 0.7m telescope system at the Miryang Arirang Astronomical Observatory (MAAO), a public observatory in Miryang, Korea. System integration and a scheduling program enable the 0.7m telescope system to operate completely…
