Routing through a backbone, which is responsible for performing and managing multipoint communication, reduces the communication overhead and overall energy consumption in wireless...
Building artificial systems using self-assembly is one of the main issues of artificial life [17]. Scientists are trying to understand this process either using experimental appro...
Family and friends naturally maintain an awareness of each other on an ongoing basis (e.g., knowing one’s schedule, health issues) and many technologies are now being contemplat...
We present a probabilistic model, based on Dynamic Decision Networks, to assess user affect from possible causes of emotional arousal. The model relies on the OCC cognitive theory...
We present algorithms that enable virtual objects to interact with and respond to virtual representations, avatars, of real objects. These techniques allow dynamic real objects, s...
