The design and implementation of distributed, self-organising and self-adaptive systems are challenging. This article details our experience gained during the development of self-organising assembly systems, which provide solutions for user-friendly agile manufacturing systems. More specifically, we describe how both a development method for self-organising systems, called MetaSelf,...

Our daily affective states are a key element in the analyse is of our quality of life (QoL). Yet, to date a reliable and accurate solution for an affect analysis in our daily environments does not exist. This paper draws a research path towards a development of a Body Area Network (emoBAN) that enables long-term monitoring and analysis of affective states, as well as provision of...

This paper introduces the Spatial Memory concept which defines any geographical location as a memory where information can be stored and retrieval by user-applications. The Hovering Information Middleware is also introduced as a constrained implementation of the Spatial Memory concept. This middleware is based on results presented on previous works related with Hovering Information....

Augmenter un environnement virtuel 3D avec de l'information non-géométrique permet d'améliorer notre compréhension des objets géométriques et des liens existant entre ces objets pour accomplir des tâches qui nécessitent à la fois des informations non-géométriques et une scène 3D. Il existe plusieurs techniques de représentation de l'information non-géométrique dans les...

3D geodata are more and more available as well as realtime visualization possibilities with free three-dimensional viewers such as Google Earth. This implies a growing demand of 3D city models, which are 3D representations at the scale of the city. Despite their intended wide range of applications, such models cannot be used for many urban tasks as they cannot represent the urban...
