Open Corpus Learning Content; Harvesting Knowledge to provide Equitable Access to Education for All
(2007)For generations education and educational institutions were closed books, available only to those privileged enough to attend these institutions. However the internet has unlocked the door to knowledge for countless ... -
Rabbit Run: Gaze and Voice Based Game Interaction
(2009)Modern eye tracking technology allows an observer?s gaze to be determined in realtime by measuring their eye movements. Recent studies have examined the viability of using gaze data as a means of controlling computer games. ... -
Towards the use of Policy Decomposition for Composite Service Management by Non-expert End-users
(2010)With the advent of Web 2.0, as web service composition gets easier, there is a trend towards nonexpert users not just consuming information and services, but also providing, aggregating, composing and eventually managing ... -
Evaluation of Multi-part Models for Mean-Shift Tracking
(IEEE, 2008)Mean-shift tracking is a data-driven technique for tracking objects through a video sequence. We propose an innovation to mean-shift tracking that combines the background exclusion constraint with multi-part appearance ... -
Supporting Composite Smart Home Services with Semantic Fault Management
(2010)The proliferation of smart home technologies providing home users with digital services presents an interoperability problem. This paper asserts that the value of these services can be greatly extended by enabling te ... -
A Proposal for the Evaluation of Adaptive Personalised Information Retrieval
(2010)Personalisation in Information Retrieval is achieved using a range of contextual information such as information about the user, the task being conducted and the device being used. This information is used to devise the ... -
Open Framework Middleware for Intelligent WSN Topology Adaption in Smart Buildings
(IEEE, 2009)Modern smart buildings utilize sensor networks for facilities management applications such as energy monitoring. However as buildings become progressively more embedded with sensor networks, the challenge of managing and ... -
Using Specification Models for RunTime Adaptations
(2009)For a myriad of reasons, modern applications face constant change to their requirements and working environment, requiring them to adapt accordingly. Increasingly, such adaptation is even required dur- ing runtime. In ... -
Analysis of the Evaluation of Application-Led Research in Pervasive Computing
(2006)Pervasive computing researchers typically conduct their research through the development of prototype applications. Such research is motivated by a well-defined problem and evaluated by assessing the impact of deployed ... -
Supporting Context-Awareness: A Taxonomic Review
(2008)Context-aware applications realise the vision of ubiquitous computing by utilising information gathered from their environment to automatically adapt behaviour. To support the development of such applications, researchers ... -
Temporal Factors to evaluate trustworthiness of virtual identities
(IEEE, 2007)In this paper we investigate how temporal factors (i.e. factors computed by considering only the time-distribution of interactions) can be used as an evidence of an entity?s trustworthiness. While reputation and direct ... -
Workflow semantics of peer and service behaviour
(IEEE, 2008)In this paper we introduce SMoL, a simplified BPEL-like language for specifying peer and service behaviour in P2P systems. We define a transformational semantics of SMoL in terms of YAWL workflows, which enables the ... -
Cross-Lingual Ontology Mapping and Its Use on the Multilingual Semantic Web
(2010)Ontology-based knowledge management systems enable the automatic discovery, sharing and reuse of structured data sources on the semantic web. With the emergence of multilingual ontologies, accessing knowledge across natural ... -
TinyTorrents - Integrating Peer-to-Peer and Wireless Sensor Networks
(2009)TinyTorrents integrates Wireless Sensor Networks with the BitTorrent Peer-to-Peer protocol and is designed to respect the resource constrained environment which characterises many WSN's. This paper describes the architecture ... -
Social Networks and the national art gallery (Dublin|...|Sofia)
(Hanken School of Economics, Helsinki, 2010)To publish is to make public. And one sense of being public is surely to be accessible? Today it is not only the writing and the images that are published formally, that is to say through official channels, but also the ... -
Using Psychometric Approaches in the Modeling of Abstract Cognitive Skills for Personalization, Lifelong User Modelling Workshop
(2009)?Learning to learn? is the informal phrase often used to describe the acquisition of abstract cognitive skills such as metacognition and social cognition. Current personalization approaches within Adaptive Learning Systems ... -
Non-Invasive Adaptation Service for Web-based Content Management Systems
(2009)Most Adaptive Hypermedia Systems today focus on providing an adaptive portal or presentation/application through which adaptive retrieved content is delivered. Moreover the content used by such adaptive systems tends to ...
