Towards autonomous lunar navigation for in-situ resource utilization
Work from the student team Illinois Kingfishers participating in the Lunar Autonomy Challenge (LAC) is presented. The team was formed by students in the Human-Centered Autonomy Lab (HCAL) at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign (UIUC). Teams in the LAC created an autonomous system to guide a …

Optimal scheduling and resource utilization for repetitive construction projects
Repetitive construction projects require construction crews to repeat their work in a number of locations in the same project, moving from one location to the next. Scheduling this type of projects often requires maximizing work continuity for these crews while reducing the project duration and the …

Impact of prenatal screening on future resource utilization in pregnancy
… Obtaining reliable data on prenatal screening utilization is problematic in Canada as these data are not collected in a systematic way nationally and, in many cases, not even provincially. This study aimed to understand utilization of prenatal screening in an Albertan context; to examine the …
