Towards Quality of Service-Awareness of Mobile Healthcare Services
Inevitably healthcare goes mobile – providing m-health applications to users anywhere-anytime, and relying their delivery on the best-effort Quality of Service (QoS) of the underlying wireless networks. We examine a technical and business viability of QoSinformation system (QoSIS), which, based on Mobile Web 2.0 paradigm, predicts the QoS provided by networks available in a given m-…

Toward Mobile Web 2.0-based Business Methods: Collaborative QoS-information Sharing for Mobile Service Users
Mobile service providers (MoSPs) emerge, propelled by ubiquitous availability of mobile devices and wireless communication infrastructures. MoSPs' customers satisfaction and consequently their revenues, largely depend on the quality of service (QoS) offered by wireless network providers (WNPs) at a particular location and time of a mobile service usage. This chapter presents a…

La différence entre les genres dans le processus d'adoption d'un logiciel de dessin à partir du modèle de l'acceptabilité des nouvelles technologies (TAM)
Ce mémoire porte sur les différences entre les genres sur l'adoption des nouvelles technologies en utilisant le modèle TAM (technology acceptance model), nous analysons ces différentes variables et le genre. De plus, nous avons redéfini le modèle du TAM, en y intégrant certaines variables supplémentaires que nous avons trouvé dans la littérature traitant du TAM et de ces…

Semantic Enrichment of Scene Graphs for Task Based Adaptation in 3D User Interfaces: A Proposal
There are currently no well-established techniques or tools to build adaptive 3D user interfaces. The aim of this research is to overcome identified shortcomings by providing a model and framework for the semantic enrichment of scene graphs for task based adaptation in 3D user interfaces. The semantic enrichment of scenes can play an extremely important role in enabling the viewers…

Designing Self-Organization for Evolvable Assembly Systems
Current solutions for industrial manufacturing assembly systems do not suit the needs of mass customization industry, which is facing low production volumes, many variants and rapidly changing conditions. This paper proposes the concept of self-organizing evolvable assembly systems, where assembly system modules and product parts to be assembled self-organize and self-adapt (among…

Power- and Delay-Aware Mobile Application-Data Flow Adaptation: the MobiHealth System Case Study
Emerging healthcare applications rely on personal mobile devices to monitor patient vital signs and to send it to the hospitals-backend servers for further analysis. However, these personal mobile devices have limited resources that must be used optimally in order to meet the requirements of healthcare applications end-users: healthcare professionals and their patients. This paper…

Hovering Information : Infrastructure-Free Self-Organising Location-Aware Information Dissemination Service
This paper proposes a location-based service for disseminating geo-localised information generated by and aimed at mobile users. The service itself works in a self-organising manner. A piece of hovering information is attached to a geographical point, called the anchor location, and to its vicinity area, called the anchor area. It is responsible for keeping itself alive, available…

MetaSelf - A Framework for Designing and Controlling Self-Adaptive and Self-Organising Systems
This paper proposes a unifying framework for the engineering of dependable self-adaptive (SA) and self-organising (SO) systems. We first identify requirements for designing and building such SA and SO systems. Second, we propose a generic framework combining design-time and run-time features which permit the definition and analysis at design-time of mechanisms that both ensure and…

Ontologies for the Integration of Air Quality Models and 3D City Models
In the perspective of a sustainable urban planning, it is necessary to investigate cities in a holistic way and to accept surprises in the response of urban environments to a particular set of strategies. For example, the process of inner-city densification may limit air pollution, carbon emissions, and energy use through reduced transportation; on the other hand, the resulting…

An ontology of virtual humans
Most of the efforts concerninggraphical representations ofhumans (Virtual Humans) have beenfocused on synthesizing geometryfor static or animated shapes. Thenext step is to consider a human bodynot only as a 3D shape, but as anactive semantic entity with features,functionalities, interaction skills,etc. We are currently working on anontology-based approach to makeVirtual Humans more…
