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 ... -
Towards a Simulation-based Communication Tool to Support Semantic Business Process Management
(2008)Successfully communicating a Business Executive?s goals and desires to an IT Architect with regard to organizational change presents a major challenge. The most significant problem is relating the changes desired in ... -
Engineering Information Systems towards facilitating Scrutable and Configurable Adaptation
(Springer, 2008)End users of Adaptive Hypermedia Systems (AHS) receive an experience that has been tailored towards their specific needs. Several AHS have produced favourable results showing benefits to the user experience [2]. However, ... -
Supporting Users in Creating Pedagogically Sound Personalised Learning Objects
(Springer, 2008)Successful eLearning is predicated on the application of pedagogies appropriate to online education that respond to the capabilities and needs of the learners. Typically, designing and assembling personalized learning ... -
Higher-Order Cognition in Personalised Adaptive eLearning
(2008)In nature, the Goby fish lives in symbiosis with the burrowing shrimp; serving as a watchman in return for a place to live. Current adaptive learning systems hold an ambiguous position that attempts to compensate for ... -
Adaptive Educational Games: Providing Non-invasive Personalised Learning Experiences
(IEEE Computer Society Press, 2008)Educational games have the potential to provide intrinsically motivating learning experiences that immerse and engage the learner. However, the much heralded benefits of educational games seldom consider the one-size-fits-all ... -
VUMA: A Visual User Modeling Approach for the Personalization of Adaptive Systems
(Springer, 2008)Current approaches to explicit user modelling are generally time consuming and tedious for the user. Oftentimes poor usability and overly long questionnaires deter the end user from reusing such modelling tools, thus only ... -
Why didn't we spot that?
(IEEE, 2010)The Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) protocol and its standards-track successor, the Transport Layer Security (TLS) protocol, were developed more than a decade ago and have generally withstood scrutiny in that the protocols ... -
Delay- and Disruption-Tolerant Networking
(IEEE, 2009)Delay- and disruption-tolerant networking (DTN) grew out of attempts to develop an interplanetary Internet but has evolved into an active area of networking research, with applications in space networking, military tactical ... -
API Keys to the Kingdom
(IEEE Computer Society Press, 2009)Many Web 2.0 services offer Web 2.0 APIs for developers to use. In this article, I review one of the security mechanisms that's often included in such Web 2.0 APIs - the use of API keys - and some of the deployment issues ...
