Animals can move in not only elegant but also energy efficient ways. Their skin is one of the key components for this achievement. It provides a proper friction for forward motion and can protect them from slipping on a surface during locomotion. Inspired by this, we applied real shark skin to the foot soles of our hexapod robot AMOS. The material is formed to cover each foot of AMOS. Due to sh...

Emerging mobile and ubiquitous computing environments present hard challenges to software engineering. The use of mobile code has been suggested as a natural fit for simplifying software development for these environments. Existing strategies for locating mobile code assume an underlying fixed, stable network. An alternative approach is required for mobile environments, where network size and r...

Explanations are an important part of modern recommender systems. They help users to make better decisions, improve the conversion rate of browsers into buyers, and lead to greater user satisfaction in the long-run. In this paper, we extend recent work on generating explanations by mining user reviews. We show how this leads to a novel explanation format that can be tailored for the needs of th...
