This paper highlights the possibilities for today's researchers and innovators to turbocharge community collaboration by developing the required technologies.

We introduce FERN (Federated Extensible Resolution of Names), the first framework designed to enable efficient name resolution across heterogeneous name resolution systems operating in dynamic or static networks.

We developed a novel parking system that allows people to reserve on-street parking, meant to reduce congestion, increase convenience, and raise revenue.

We built Echo, a smartphone application for recording everyday experiences and reflecting on them later.

This poster abstract presents a new word cloud technique, the Fisheye Word Cloud, for exploring time-series data in a focused+context approach to analyzing word data.

This report describes a hybrid sensing platform which reads in data from multiple printed sensors based either on organic or nanoparticle semiconductors (resistive light and heat sensors in this case),…

This paper presents the results of a qualitative study on online dating practices.

In this paper, we present the Meshin system, an intelligent personal assistant that organizes messages, notifications and appointments for mobile phone users.

We propose here a research agenda to appropriately balance the advantages of fine-grained energy usage data with the associated privacy risks.

Organic materials have been demonstrated as good candidates for large-area flexible sensors, because they allow wide tolerance of sensor geometry and thickness, which would ease fabrication problems such as strain…

Xerox has employed ethnography for many years to gain a better understanding of human behavior in naturalistic settings, and now we are applying it to parking and parking enforcement.

In this article, we focus on privacy protection in Participatory Sensing and introduce a suitable privacy-enhanced infrastructure.
