This paper presents the first comprehensive capacity-delay tradeoff study for random wireless ad hoc networks under all information dissemination modalities when nodes operate either with multi-packet reception (MPR) or single-packet…

This paper introduces two new concepts for augmented semantic structuring of paper-based learning processes.

This paper describes a highly scalable fluidic technology that presents a transformative approach to the practice of conventional water treatment.

In this paper we describe the implementation of a mobile recommender system for leisure activities, codenamed Magitti, which was built for commercial deployment under stringent scalability requirements.

In this paper we propose a first step towards developing a more integrated multi-faceted approach to qualitative model-based reasoning.

We analyze a social tagging site, namely del.icio.us, with information theory in order to evaluate the efficiency of this social tagging site for encoding navigation paths to information sources.

In this paper we describe how sources can model the potential usefulness of their information using utility functions that describe where and at what data rates the information will be…

We describe an approach to propagating streams of information in Vehicle Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) based on sources of information predicting where the information will be useful---information is pushed "based on…

PARC has developed a compact, low-cost purification system that reduces maintenance down-time, increases throughput, decreases power consumption, and shrinks real estate requirements.

This study investigated the influences of knowledge, particularly Internet, Web browser, and search engine knowledge, as well as cognitive abilities on older adult information seeking on the Internet.

We present the JARS (Joint channel Assignment, Routing and Scheduling) scheme for ad hoc wireless networks in which nodes are endowed with multiple radios.

This paper describes an experience with using the information contained in VerbNet to obtain change of location inferences.
