The “What” and “Why” of Goal Pursuits: Human Needs and the Self-Determination of Behavior
, 2000
"... Self-determination theory (SDT) maintains that an understanding of human motiva-tion requires a consideration of innate psychological needs for competence, auton-omy, and relatedness. We discuss the SDT concept of needs as it relates to previous need theories, emphasizing that needs specify the nece ..."

Scheduling Multithreaded Computations by Work Stealing
, 1994
"... This paper studies the problem of efficiently scheduling fully strict (i.e., well-structured) multithreaded computations on parallel computers. A popular and practical method of scheduling this kind of dynamic MIMD-style computation is “work stealing," in which processors needing work steal com ..."

Motivation through the Design of Work: Test of a Theory. Organizational Behavior and Human Performance,
, 1976
"... A model is proposed that specifies the conditions under which individuals will become internally motivated to perform effectively on their jobs. The model focuses on the interaction among three classes of variables: (a) the psychological states of employees that must be present for internally motiv ..."

Also, Hackman and Lawler found that a number of dependent measures were moderated as MOTIVATION THROUGH DESIGN OF WORK 255 predicted by growth need strength: That is, employees with high measured needs for growth
Models and issues in data stream systems
- IN PODS
, 2002
"... In this overview paper we motivate the need for and research issues arising from a new model of data processing. In this model, data does not take the form of persistent relations, but rather arrives in multiple, continuous, rapid, time-varying data streams. In addition to reviewing past work releva ..."

Privacy Preserving Data Mining
- JOURNAL OF CRYPTOLOGY
, 2000
"... In this paper we address the issue of privacy preserving data mining. Specifically, we consider a scenario in which two parties owning confidential databases wish to run a data mining algorithm on the union of their databases, without revealing any unnecessary information. Our work is motivated b ..."

Next century challenges: Scalable coordination in sensor networks
, 1999
"... Networked sensors-those that coordinate amongst them-selves to achieve a larger sensing task-will revolutionize information gathering and processing both in urban environments and in inhospitable terrain. The sheer numbers of these sensors and the expected dynamics in these environments present uniq ..."

This extension is necessary to meet the growing need for real-time service for a variety of new applications, including teleconferencing, remote seminars, telescience, and distributed simulation. This memo represents the direct product of recent work
Towards a better understanding of context and context-awareness
- In HUC ’99: Proceedings of the 1st international symposium on Handheld and Ubiquitous Computing
, 1999
"... Abstract. The use of context is important in interactive applications. It is particularly important for applications where the user’s context is changing rapidly, such as in both handheld and ubiquitous computing. In order to better understand how we can use context and facilitate the building of co ..."

of context-aware applications, we need to more fully understand what constitutes a contextaware application and what context is. Towards this goal, we have surveyed existing work in context-aware computing. In this paper, we provide an overview of the results of this survey and, in particular, definitions
