The SEMAINE API: Towards a Standards-Based Framework for Building Emotion-Oriented Systems

This paper presents the SEMAINE API, an open source framework for building emotion-oriented systems. By encouraging and simplifying the use of standard representation formats, the framework aims to contribute to interoperability and reuse of system components in the research community. By providing a Java and C++ wrapper around a message-oriented middleware, the API makes it easy to integrate c...

Building a Comprehensive Conceptual Framework for Power Systems Resilience Metrics

Recently, the frequency and severity of natural and man-made disasters (extreme events), which have a high-impact low-frequency (HILF) property, are increased. These disasters can lead to extensive outages, damages, and costs in electric power systems. A power system must be built with “resilience” against disasters, which means its ability to withstand disasters efficiently while ensuring the ...

Towards an object-oriented logic framework for knowledge based systems

Towards Pervasive Web API-based Systems

Recent technology developments in the area of services on the Web are marked by the proliferation of Web applications and APIs. This development, accompanied by the growing use of sensors and mobile devices raises the issue of having to consider not only static but also dynamic data accessible via Web APIs. New implications on the communication in such networks can be derived, i.e., the active ...

- - - , - - Towards a Framework For Comparing Object - Oriented Systems

Choosing a suitable object-oriented system for a particular application domain is very hard, at least in part because the object-oriented research community has not yet converged on what is meant by "object-oriented system". In order to solve this selection problem, a comparison framework is proposed to evaluate a range of objectoriented systems. We then use this framework to consider three dif...
