Asynchronous video interviews (AVIs) are increasingly used to preselect applicants. Previous research found that interviewees in AVIs receive better interview ratings compared other forms of interviews. It has been suggested this difference could be due the preparation time given for each AVI question. A pilot study confirmed is indeed beneficial performance. Furthermore, our main replicated si...

As datasets continue to increase in size and multi-core computer architectures are developed, asynchronous parallel optimization algorithms become more and more essential to the field of Machine Learning. Unfortunately, conducting the theoretical analysis asynchronous methods is difficult, notably due to the introduction of delay and inconsistency in inherently sequential algorithms. Handling t...

Web-based asynchronous learning systems have revolutionized the learning environment. Rapid advances in computer technology, the Internet and transmission technology have created new opportunities for delivering instruction. It is anticipated that these technologies will dramatically change the way instruction will be imparted throughout the educational system. One example is asynchronous learn...

This paper presents a review of a sample of recent case studies on the use of asynchronous online discussion in higher education. These studies are analyzed in terms of curriculum design, assumptions about teaching and learning, and claims and reported conditions for using online discussion. The claims made for asynchronous online discussion—in particular the opportunities for interaction betwe...

Group efficacy has begun to receive more attention in HCI. The paper describes a mixed-design experiment aimed to explore the effect of time on group efficacy development in two computer-mediated virtual conditions: asynchronous vs. multi-synchronous teams. The relationships of group efficacy measures at different times and tool evaluation, team satisfaction and performance are also explored. F...

As demand rises for circuits with higher performance, higher complexity, and decreased feature size, asynchronous (clockless) paradigms will become more widely used in the semiconductor industry, as evidenced by the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors’ (ITRS) prediction of a likely shift from synchronous to asynchronous design styles in order to increase circuit robustness, decr...

This paper introduces the ArguMed-system. It is an example of a system for computer-mediated defeasible argumentation, a new trend in the field of defeasible argumentation. In this research, computer systems are developed that mediate the process of argumentation by one or more users. Argumentmediation systems should be contrasted with systems for automated reasoning: the latter perform reasoni...

A set of techniques have been developed and refined to support the demanding software requirements of combined interactive computer music and computer animation. The techniques include a new programming environment that supports an integration of procedural and declarative score-like descriptions of interactive real-time behavior. Also discussed are issues of asynchronous input, concurrency, me...

How to accurately understand low-resource languages is the core of task-oriented human-computer dialogue system. Language understanding consists two sub-tasks, i.e., intent detection and slot filling. Intent still faces challenges due semantic ambiguity implicit intentions with users’ input. Moreover, separately modeling filling significantly decrease correctness relevance between questions ans...
