Interacting with Context

چکیده

Context is dodgy just as the human computer user: hard to predict, erroneous, and probabilistic in nature. Linking the two together i.e. creating context-aware user interfaces (UIs) remains a great challenge in computer science since ubiquitous computing calls for lean, situated, and focused UIs that can be operated on the move or intertwined with primary tasks grabbing the user's attention. The paper reviews major categories of context that matter at the seam of humans and computers, emphasizing quality issues. Approaches to the marriage of context-awareness and user modeling are highlighted, including our own approach. Both sides of the coin are inspected: the improvement of UIs by means of quality attributed context information and, to a lesser extent, the challenge to convey context quality to the user as part of the interaction.

Variational Calculations for the Relativistic Interacting Fermion System at Finite Temperature: Application to Liquid 3He

In this paper, at first we have formulated the lowest order constrained variational method for the relativistic case of an interacting fermion system at finite temperature. Then we have used this formalism to calculate some thermodynamic properties of liquid in the relativistic regime. The results show that the difference between total energies of relativistic and non-relativistic cases of liqu...

Adaptive Control Strategy for a Bilateral Tele- Surgery System Interacting with Active Soft Tissues

In this paper, the problem of control and stabilization of a bilateral tele-surgery roboticsystem in interaction with an active soft tissue is considered. To the best of the authors’ knowledge, theprevious works did not consider a realistic model for a moving soft tissue like heart tissue in beating heartsurgery. Here, a new model is proposed to indicate significant characteristics of a moving ...
