In recent years, an increasing number of Mixed Reality (MR) applications have been developed using agent technology—both for the underlying software and as an interface metaphor. However, no unifying field or theory currently ...
This paper reports on an investigation into the scholarly impact of the TRECVid (TREC Video Retrieval Evaluation) benchmarking conferences between 2003 and 2009. The contribution of TRECVid to research in video retrieval ...
Although collaborative searching is not supported by mainstream search engines, recent research has high- lighted the inherently collaborative nature of many web search tasks. In this paper, we describe HeyStaks ...
In this paper we focus on an approach to social search, HeyStaks that is designed to integrate with mainstream search engines such as Google, Yahoo and Bing. HeyStaks is motivated by the idea that Web search is an inherently ...
Gestural interfaces are now a familiar mode of user interaction and gestural input is an important part of the way that users can interact with such interfaces. However, entering gestures accurately and efficiently can be ...
For the main part, when it comes to questions of retrieval, the focus of CBR research has been on the retrieval of cases from a repository of experience knowledge or case base. In this paper we consider a complementary ...
Recent years have seen the emergence of a number of AOP languages. While these can mostly be characterized as logic-oriented languages that map sit- uations to courses of action, they are based on a variety of concepts, ...
Recent years have seen the emergence of a number of AOP languages. While these can mostly be characterized as logic-oriented languages that map situations to courses of action, they are based on a variety of concepts, ...
In wireless sensor networks, determining the set of locations to activate sensors, such that the amount of information received is maximised, is an important task. With the model driven approach to sensor networks, a ...
Recent economic and technical advances in wireless communication have allowed the deployment of low-power and lossy wireless networks—LowPANs, potentially comprised of a large number of nodes to serve new types of applications. ...
