MultiS: A Context-Server for Pervasive Computing
Abstract Context-aware applications are capable of recognizing environmental changes and adapting their behavior to the new context. This process can be divided into three stages: monitoring, context recognition and adaptation. On the monitoring...

A double layer method for constructing signed distance fields from triangle meshes
Abstract A new algorithm is proposed for constructing signed distance fields (SDF) from triangle meshes. In our approach, both the internal and external distance fields for the triangle mesh are computed first. Then the desired SDF is computed...

Method of Embodying the Meaning of Headlines Using News Articles
Abstract In recent years, various studies have investigated intelligent robots that can smoothly communicate with humans. Communication between humans is often achieved through conversation, so it is likely that robots will need to be able to...

The Urge for Empirically-informed Design of Social-Oriented AAL Applications – The Example of 2 AAL Projects
Abstract In this paper, we show that contrary to other AAL assistive technologies, which are somehow mandatory for an autonomous living at home, the use of social interaction services is not a necessity by itself, even if it contributes to a better...

Network-level accident-mapping: Distance based pattern matching using artificial neural network
Abstract The objective of an accident-mapping algorithm is to snap traffic accidents onto the correct road segments. Assigning accidents onto the correct segments facilitate to robustly carry out some key analyses in accident research including the...

OpenLV: Empowering investigators and first-responders in the digital forensics process
Abstract The continuing decline in the cost-per-megabyte of hard disk storage has inevitably led to a ballooning volume of data that needs to be reviewed in digital investigations. The result: case backlogs that commonly stretch for months at...

An Accurate Join for Zonotopes, Preserving Affine Input/Output Relations
Abstract Zonotopes are a convenient abstract domain for the precise analysis of programs with numerical variables. Compared to the domain of convex polyhedra, it is less expensive and may easily handle non-linear assignments. However, the classical...
