Most importantly, these positive outcomes persist over a 10-year follow-up period [1–5]. With stroke rehabilitation units established as a standard of care, now
Guest Editorial Special Section on Formal Methods in Manufacturing
"... DESIGN and operation of manufacturing systems is a large and complex domain of application. The complexity of this domain stems from the large dimension and from the degrees of flexibility of such systems that are highly parallel and distributed.

DESIGN and operation of manufacturing systems is a large and complex domain of application. The complexity of this domain stems from the large dimension and from the degrees of flexibility of such systems that are highly parallel and distributed. Formal methods are mathematical techniques, often supported by tools, for developing man-made systems. They are extensively used in the software engineering domain, where several specialist journals and conferences with very competitive submissions processes exist, showing the vitality of this research area. In the last years, we have seen advances and developments in the newly emerging areas of technology, as well as actual and potential applications to flexible manufacturing systems. However, the development of suitable methodologies has not kept up

WIRELESS technologies are nowadays in widespread use, with cellular telephony and wireless Internet access being two of the major driving forces behind this. Using wireless technologies in industrial and factory automation is also very attractive for many reasons. The wireless way of communicating makes plant setup and modification easier, cheaper, and more flexible. It provides a natural approach towards communication with mobile equipment where wires are in constant danger of breaking. It enables new applications where wireless transmission is the only option, e.g., measurements and control of rotating or highly mobile devices, and provides a novel approach to existing applications, e.g., localization and tracking of goods. Furthermore, tasks like machine diagnosis and maintenance can be greatly simplified by equipping the maintenance personnel with wireless terminals.

For many photographers today, mobile photography is photog-raphy. According to statistics available on the photo-sharing site flickr.com, over the last year the most popular camera used to take photos on the site has been an Apple iPhone. In fact, during the summer of 2012, the iPhone 4 and the iPhone 4S occupied the number one and number two spots. The success of mobile photography perhaps goes hand in glove with the rise of social networking sites. Mobile photogra-phy has enabled any individual with a cell phone (the ubiqui-tous mobile camera) to quickly and easily share visual images of their lives. Mobile cameras are cheap, small, lightweight, and connected—pictures can be taken anytime and anywhere— and shared immediately. Mobile photography has been enabled by the same minia-turization process that is responsible for the fantastic
