Web interface for reflectivity fitting

Compound-cavity laser modes for arbitrary interface reflectivity.

Calculations of the longitudinal mode functions for the electric field of a compound-cavity laser show that the loss and gain coefficients are given by the Airy formula, as a function of the mode frequencies. Further, when the external cavity is longer than the gain-medium cavity, the frequency dependence of the gain is stronger than that of the loss, even when the intracavity surfaces are anti...

Virtual Fitting Room with Spoken Dialogue Interface

We address an e ective application of spoken dialogue interface by combining with virtual space technologies. Virtual space enables us to do what cannot be done in the real world with feeling as if doing in the real world. Spoken dialogue systems are to realize our intention by understanding expressions that include concept and a nuance. We clari ed advantages and disadvantages of speech interf...

A Web Interface for Matita

1. creation of a web collaborative working environment for interactive theorem proving, aimed at fostering knowledge-intensive cooperation, content creation and management; 2. exploitation of the markup in order to enrich the document with several kinds of annotations or active elements; annotations may have both a presentational/hypertextual nature, aimed to improve the quality of the proof sc...

How to get a fitting metaphor for a multimedia interface?

A method for 'metaphor engineering' is introduced in the context of participatory multimedia design. Our hypothesis, that adults talk to children more with a metaphorical language than to other adults, was empirically verified. Six male adults (students of physics) explained 12 children (6 girls, 6 boys) and 12 adults (5 female, 7 male) two different domain problems: (1) "Why does the sound of ...
