We present a non-invasive ambient intelligence framework for the semi-automatic analysis of non-verbal communication applied to the restorative justice field. We propose the use of computer vision and social signal processing ...
This paper presents, models and evaluates EH-DQ (Energy Harvesting-aware Distributed Queuing), a novel MAC protocol that combines Distributed Queuing (DQ) with Energy Harvesting (EH) to address data collection applications ...
Optimization problems arising in real-life transportation and logistics need to consider uncertainty conditions (e.g., stochastic travel times, etc.). Simulation is employed in the analysis of complex systems under such ...

This paper describes the development of a two-way shallow-transfer rule-based machine translation system between Bulgarian and Macedonian. It gives an account of the resources and the methods used for constructing the ...
This book is the third in a sequence of books reflecting on the future of learning, and more specifically, how computers can give support to long-distance education. [1], [2]. This challenge has recently become the focal ...
Our society may enhance and create new services in a people-centric IoT context through the exchange of information with sensor devices. Unfortunately, communication and services may be compromised due to a number of factors ...
In this paper we present a novel mechanism for the protection of dynamic itineraries for mobile agent applications. Itineraries that are decided as the agent goes are essential in complex applications based on mobile agents, ...
A MOOC is a Massively Online Open Course. It is massive because there are many students (sometimes hundreds of thousands). It is online because it uses the Internet for course delivery. It is open because it is publically ...
Aquest text s’emmarca en dos projectes de recerca: a) SEJ2006-15051-C03-01 “El derecho histórico en los pueblos de España: ámbitos público y privado (siglos XII-XXI)”, dirigit per Tomàs de Montagut, catedràtic d’Història ...
Person re-identification has received special attention by the human analysis community in the last few years. To address the challenges in this field, many researchers have proposed different strategies, which basically ...

Efficient spectrum usage and optimized energy consumption directly depend on the radio duty cycle of the communicating devices. Tight synchronization of communicating nodes enables optimal orchestration of the access to ...
En este trabajo presentamos una metodología para el diseño de aplicaciones basadas en agentes móviles seguros, y unas herramientas para aplicar esta metodología. Los recientes avances en el campo de la seguridad de los ...
An information system maintains a representation of the state of the domain in its Information Base (IB). The state of the IB changes due to the execution of the operations defined in the behavioral schema. There are two ...
GitHub, nowadays the most popular social coding platform, has become the reference for mining Open Source repositories, a growing research trend aiming at learning from previous software projects to improve the development ...
