Smart‐agent system for flexible, personalised transport service

A Modular and Configurable Transport System Architecture for High-Performance Processing Providing a Flexible Transport Service

Personalised Grid service discovery

We take a broad view that ultimately Gridor Web-services must be located via personalised, semantic-rich discovery processes. We argue that such processes must rely on the storage of arbitrary metadata about services that originates from both service providers and service users. Examples of such metadata are reliability metrics, quality of service data, or semantic service description markup. T...

Scalable and Personalised Broadcast Service

An aspect of the European IST SAVANT (Synchronised and Scalable Audio Visual content Across NeTworks) project is the personalisation of interactive TV systems combining broadcast programmes with additional content transmitted via the Internet. This paper describes scalability by selection of service components within the available services according to user preferences. This service adaptation ...

Context-Aware Personalised Service Delivery

In this paper we explore the potential of recommendation systems in an environment where users can access a variety of services from different locations. In particular we explore the use of adaptive technologies to recommend new services to users based on context, which we define in terms of four factors: time, location, user behaviour and user profile. A multi-agent service delivery architectu...

A flexible magnetically-controllable fluid transport system

The goal of this study is to understand the mechanics of a flexible magnetically-controllable fluid transport system. A two-dimensional time-dependent model using a coupled fluid-solid and magnetic model is developed. The flow of fluids through sinusoidal wall is modeled, numerically analyzed and compared with an analytical solution, for the passive case (i.e., zero applied magnetic field). The...
