Representing Cognitive Activity in Complex Tasks
While cognitive theory has been recognised as essential for the analysis of Human-Computer Interaction, the representations that have been developed have been directed more towards theoretical purposes than practical application. To bridge the gap between theory and application, representations need to satisfy requirements for broad scope, a unified theoretical basis, and abstraction. Interacti...
متن کاملLearning from complex cognitive tasks: comparing groups to individuals
The effects of individual versus group learning (in triads) on efficiency of retention and transfer test performance in the domain of biology (heredity) among 70 high-school students were investigated. Applying cognitive load theory, the limitations of the working memory capacity at the individual level were considered an important reason to assign complex learning tasks to groups rather than t...
متن کاملMarkets vs . Mechanisms ∗
We demonstrate constraints on usage of direct revelation mechanisms (DRMs) by corporations inhabiting economies with securities markets. We consider a corporation seeking to acquire decision relevant information. In an environment with a securities market, the act of posting a standard DRM endogenously increases the informed agent’s outside option value. If the informed agent rejects said DRM, ...
متن کاملReliably Executing Tasks in the Presence of Malicious Processors
In this work we consider a distributed system formed by a master processor and a collection of n processors (workers) that can execute tasks; worker processors are untrusted and might act maliciously. The master assigns tasks to workers to be executed. Each task returns a binary value, and we want the master to accept only correct values with high probability. Furthermore, we assume that the se...
متن کاملA Frame-based System for Modelling and Executing Visual Tasks
This paper describes a framework for model representation and control intended as the basis of a computer vision system capable of undertaking arbitrary but well defined image interpretation tasks. An inter-related structure of models represents both the visual task and image content. The user defines this structure but not the internal details of all models, so non vision experts can program t...
