Using a Mobile Device to Vary the Pace of Search

چکیده
Although online, handheld, mobile computers offer new possibilities in searching and retrieving information on-the-go, the fast-paced, “sit-forward” style of interaction may not be appropriate for all user search needs. In this paper, we explore how a handheld computer can be used to enable interactive search experiences that vary in pace from fast and immediate through to reflective and delayed. We describe a system that asynchronously combines an offline handheld computer and an online desktop Personal Computer, and discuss some results of an initial user evaluation.

Background: Hypertension is a common chronic disease with increasing prevalence worldwide. Regular close monitoring of blood pressure is key point of hypertension management. Home monitoring of blood pressure has its own problems such as lack of early access to a physician in case of emergency. In this study we have designed a device that could send the patient’s self-measured blood pre...
متن کاملA Mobile and Fog-based Computing Method to Execute Smart Device Applications in a Secure Environment
With the rapid growth of smart device and Internet of things applications, the volume of communication and data in networks have increased. Due to the network lag and massive demands, centralized and traditional cloud computing architecture are not accountable to the high users' demands and not proper for execution of delay-sensitive and real time applications. To resolve these challenges, we p...

Developing optimal flocking control procedure is an essential problem in mobile sensor networks (MSNs). Furthermore, finding the parameters such that the sensors can reach to the target in an appropriate time is an important issue. This paper offers an optimization approach based on metaheuristic methods for flocking control in MSNs to follow a target. We develop a non-differentiable optimizati...
