Towards a fluid spectrum market for exclusive usage rights
(IEEE, 2007)This paper focuses on highly fluid markets for trading exclusive spectrum usage-rights. The purpose of the paper is to underline the need for flexible usage-rights policies, as a core facilitator of such markets as well ... -
REACT: REal-time Adaptive Collision Testing, a Interactive Vision approach
(1997)As the demand for high levels of interaction in computer systems increases, so too does the need for real-time, interactive animation. Detecting collisions between geometrically modelled objects remains a major bottleneck in ... -
Extending educational metadata schemas to describe adaptive learning resources
(ACM, 2001)This paper describes a generic technique for representing Adaptive Learning Resources by extending current metadata schemas. The requirement for the work described here has grown out of the necessity to facilitate ... -
Framework and architecture for the management of event-condition-action (ECA) rule-based clinical protocols
(IEEE, 2002)Computer-based support for the incorporation of clinical practice guidelines and protocol into daily practice has recently attracted a lot of research interest within the healthcare informatics area. The aim is not only ... -
An Architecture for integrating adaptive hypermedia service with open learning environments
(2002)Adaptive Hypermedia Systems are capable of delivering personalized learning content to learners across the WWW. Learning Environments provide interfaces and support services to aid tutors in course construction and aid ... -
Multi-model, metadata driven approach to adaptive hypermedia services for personalized eLearning
(2002)One of the major obstacles in developing quality eLearning content is the substantial development costs involved and development time required [12]. Educational providers, such as those in the university sector and ... -
Reusing adaptive learning resources

Novel components for supporting adaptivity in education systems - model-based integration approach
(2000)A Hypermedia System is collection of linked nodes (hyperdocuments), which have links through which the student can traverse to other nodes [Brusilovsky, 96], [De Bra, 98]. In Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) the content ... -
The multi-model, metadata-driven approach to content and layout adaptation
(2004)Delivering content adapted to not only an end user's needs and preferences, but also to their context and environment presents a number of research challenges. The multi-modal nature of content delivery coupled with the ... -
Evaluation of APeLS - an adaptive eLearning service based on the multi-model, metadata-driven approach
(Springer, 2004)The evaluation of learner and tutor feedback is essential in the production of high quality personalized eLearning services. There are few evaluations available in the Adaptive Hypermedia domain relative to the amount ... -
Utilizing context in adaptive information services for pervasive computing environments
(2004)Ubiquitous and pervasive computing environments have the potential to provide rich sources of information about a user and their surroundings. Such context information may form a ba-sis upon which Adaptive Information ... -
Context-informed adaptive hypermedia
(2004)Adaptive Hypermedia Systems have mechanisms for extensively modelling their domain of expertise, and reasoning over that domain to produce tailored web content. In general, these systems are supplied in advance with deep, ... -
A context information service using ontology-based queries
(2004)Ubiquitous computing environments have the potential to provide rich sources of information about a user and their surroundings. However, the nature of context information means that it must be gathered in an ad-hoc ... -
Resolving queries in a heterogeneous context rich environment
(2004)The vision of ubiquitous computing is that of many computing devices interacting in a natural way with humans in the real world. The software running on these devices is currently limited in how it can provide for users? ... -
The challenge of content creation to facilitate personalized eLearning experiences
(2005)The runtime creation of pedagogically coherent learning content for an individual learner?s needs and preferences is a considerable challenge. By selecting and combining appropriate learning assets into a new learning ... -
Personalisation for all: making adaptive course composition easy
(IEEE, 2005)The goal of personalised eLearning is to support e-learning content, activities and collaboration, adapted to the specific needs and influenced by specific preferences of the learner and built on sound pedagogic strategies. ... -
eLearning Without Borders - A Support Framework for Reusing Educational Strategies
(2005)Education is seen as a key enabler in forming and sustaining knowledge-based economies. Such economies have their competitive edge in the skills and capabilities of the knowledge workers in that economy. However, the effort ... -
Microadaptivity within complex learning situations - a personalized approach based on competence structures and problem spaces
(2007)In this paper, we present an approach to microadaptivity, i.e. to adaptivity within complex learning situations as they occur, e.g., in game-based learning. Integrating the competence-based knowledge space theory and the ... -
Semantically holistic and personalized views across heterogeneous information sources
(2007)A consolidated view of the content within different data repositories would facilitate useful operations such as advanced informational discovery. This paper proposes a methodology and an architecture that uses semantic ... -
Principles for designing activity-based personalized eLearning
(IEEE Computer Society, 2007)Activity-based Personalized eLearning involves delivering to a learner a learning experience that is tailored to their individual needs. Traditionally, these needs have been met through the personalized selection ...
