Adaptation for Device Independent Authoring

by Guido Menkhaus, Sebastian Fischmeister
"... The impact of device independent authoring on software engineering manifests itself mainly at the middleware level. Until recently middleware platforms were targeted at vertical coverage of specific scenarios. Consumer devices with integrated Internet-access are becoming more popular and their diver ..."

Freenet: A Distributed Anonymous Information Storage and Retrieval System

by Ian Clarke, Oskar Sandberg, Brandon Wiley, Theodore W. Hong - INTERNATIONAL WORKSHOP ON DESIGNING PRIVACY ENHANCING TECHNOLOGIES: DESIGN ISSUES IN ANONYMITY AND UNOBSERVABILITY , 2001
"... We describe Freenet, an adaptive peer-to-peer network application that permits the publication, replication, and retrieval of data while protecting the anonymity of both authors and readers. Freenet operates as a network of identical nodes that collectively pool their storage space to store data ..."

Rethinking individualism and collectivism: Evaluation of theoretical assumptions and meta-analyses

by Daphna Oyserman, Heather M. Coon, Markus Kemmelmeier - Psychological Bulletin , 2002
"... Are Americans more individualistic and less collectivistic than members of other groups? The authors summarize plausible psychological implications of individualism–collectivism (IND-COL), meta-analyze cross-national and within-United States IND-COL differences, and review evidence for effects of IN ..."

How Iris Recognition Works

by John Daugman , 2003
"... Algorithms developed by the author for recogniz-ing persons by their iris patterns have now been tested in six field and laboratory trials, producing no false matches in several million comparison tests. The recognition principle is the failure of a test of statis-tical independence on iris phase st ..."

Quicktime VR - an image-based approach to virtual environment navigation.

by Shenchang Eric Chen - In SIGGRAPH 95 Conference Proceedings, , 1995
"... ABSTRACT Traditionally, virtual reality systems use 3D computer graphics to model and render virtual environments in real-time. This approach usually requires laborious modeling and expensive special purpose rendering hardware. The rendering quality and scene complexity are often limited because of ..."

reality extension to Apple Computer's QuickTime digital multimedia framework. The paper describes the architecture, the file format, the authoring process and the interactive players of the VR system. In addition to panoramic viewing, the system includes viewing of an object from different directions

Extracting patterns and relations from the world wide web

by Sergey Brin - In WebDB Workshop at 6th International Conference on Extending Database Technology, EDBT’98 , 1998
"... Abstract. The World Wide Web is a vast resource for information. At the same time it is extremely distributed. A particular type of data such as restaurant lists may be scattered across thousands of independent information sources in many di erent formats. In this paper, we consider the problem of e ..."

Ontologies are us: A unified model of social networks and semantics

by Peter Mika - In International Semantic Web Conference , 2005
"... Abstract. On the Semantic Web ontologies are most commonly treated as artifacts created by knowledge engineers for a particular community. The task of the engineers is to forge a common understanding within the community and to formalize the agreements, prerequisites of reusing domain knowledge in i ..."

in information systems. However, the process of objectifying ontologies results in ontological drift over time (as the community and its understanding evolves independently of the agreement) and results in the loss of local views over the domain. Several authors have suggested emergent semantics as a solution [1

Regulatory Agencies, and the Bolitics of Delegation to Independent Authorities

Creative Collaborations From Afar: The Benefits of Independent Authors

by Charlan Jeanne Nemeth, Jack A. Goncalo - Creativity Research Journal , 2005
"... ABSTRACT: The number of times that an article is cited has served as an indicator of both its creativity and impact. In this study, we investigated the relation-ship between citations and 2 very simple vari-ables—the number of authors and the number of sepa-rate locations. Previous research, on bala ..."
