We propose a novel method to machine-learn highly detailed, nonlinear contact deformations for real-time dynamic simulation. depart from previous deformation-learning strategies, and model in contact-centric manner. This strategy shows excellent generalization with respect the object's configuration space, it allows simple accurate learning. complement learning two additional key ingredients: c...

A novel, ‘net-centric’ approach to disaster management is challenging traditional forms of command and control, through technology-supported, self-directed networks of heterogeneous stakeholders including affected citizens. Citizen involvement in crisis response can strengthen the resilience of local communities, and improve the relevance and delivery of response, evidenced by increasingly impo...

With the maturing of service technology, most of organizations are implementing their process-centric information systems using Web-Services (shortly SO-BPs). Nevertheless, still challenging engineering problems are hindering the development of highly adaptive, correct and realistic composite services. We aim contributing by adopting a fine-grained activity-based perception, where we behavioral...

We introduce Kynoid, a real-time monitoring and enforcement framework for Android. Kynoid is based on user-defined security policies which are defined for data-items. This allows users to define temporal, spatial, and destination constraints which have to hold for single items. We introduce an innovative approach to allow for the real-time tracking and enforcement of such policies. In this way,...

Today, innovation networks are economically and technologically accessible [VBE04]; however, managers and members of such organizations notice that success and performance are not automatically given. More to this, practitioners point out that the collaboration processes are the actual challenge in the management of a networked organization. This paper summarizes the results of a research proje...
