Unlimited Opportunities
"... Working in coastal planning is nearly always innovative, since no two coasts are the same. Even if they appear to be physically similar, local conditions and governance settings are usually different, thus requiring a different approach. Each project is unique, which makes coastal projects exciting ..."

Temporal Information Retrieval: Challenges and Opportunities
- IN: 1ST TEMPORAL WEB ANALYTICS WORKSHOP AT WWW
, 2011
"... Time is an important dimension of any information space. It can be very useful for a wide range of information retrieval tasks such as document exploration, similarity search, summarization, and clustering. Traditionally, information retrieval applications do not take full advantage of all the tempo ..."

the temporal information embedded in documents to provide alternative search features and user experience. However, in the last few years there has been exciting work on analyzing and exploiting temporal information for the presentation, organization, and in particular the exploration of search results
Research opportunities in purchasing and supply management
, 2011
"... Purchasing and supply management (PSM) are crucial for the effective and efficient operation of manufacturing firms, now more than ever. The PSM function has evolved from being routine and mechanical to a function that can deliver true competitive advantage. The trend toward increased globalisation ..."

of researchers in developing theories and chronicling best practices. At the same time, the rapid rate of change represents both daunting challenges and exciting opportunities for research in PSM. It is the goal of this article to highlight such challenges and discuss ensuing opportunities in PSM research
2.3 Post-Silicon Validation Opportunities, Challenges and Recent Advances
"... Post-silicon validation is used to detect and fix bugs in integrated circuits and systems after manufacture. Due to sheer design complexity, it is nearly impossible to detect and fix all bugs before manufacture. Post-silicon validation is a major challenge for future systems. Today, it is largely vi ..."

viewed as an art with very few systematic solutions. As a result, post-silicon validation is an emerging research topic with several exciting opportunities for major innovations in electronic design automation. In this paper, we provide an overview of the post-silicon validation problem and how
Get Excited: Reappraising Pre-Performance Anxiety as Excitement
"... Individuals often feel anxious in anticipation of tasks such as speaking in public or meeting with a boss. I find that an overwhelming majority of people believe trying to calm down is the best way to cope with pre-performance anxiety. However, across several studies involving karaoke singing, publi ..."

as excitement using minimal strategies such as self-talk (e.g., saying “I am excited ” out loud) or simple messages (e.g., “get excited”), which lead them to feel more excited, adopt an opportunity mind-set (as opposed to a threat mind-set), and improve their subsequent performance. These findings suggest
Activity recognition using cell phone accelerometers
- Proceedings of the Fourth International Workshop on Knowledge Discovery from Sensor Data
, 2010
"... Mobile devices are becoming increasingly sophisticated and the latest generation of smart cell phones now incorporates many diverse and powerful sensors. These sensors include GPS sensors, vision sensors (i.e., cameras), audio sensors (i.e., microphones), light sensors, temperature sensors, directio ..."

, direction sensors (i.e., magnetic compasses), and acceleration sensors (i.e., accelerometers). The availability of these sensors in mass-marketed communication devices creates exciting new opportunities for data mining and data mining applications. In this paper we describe and evaluate a system that uses
Opportunities for Combinatorial Optimization In Computational Biology
, 2003
"... This is a survey designed for mathematical programming people who do not know molecular biology and want to learn the kinds of combinatorial optimization problems that arise. After a brief introduction to the biology, we present optimization models pertaining to sequencing, evolutionary explanations ..."

, 2000
"... In today’s fast-paced world, while the number of channels of television programming available is increasing rapidly, the time available to watch them remains the same or is decreasing. Users desire the capability to watch the programs time-shifted (ondemand) and/or to watch just the highlights to sa ..."
