BACKGROUND People forget much of what they learn, therefore students could benefit from learning strategies that yield long-lasting knowledge. Yet surprisingly, little is known about how longterm retention is most efficiently mastered. We studied the value of teacher made in class tests as learning aids and compared two types of teacher-made tests (multiple choice and short-answer tests) with a...

For an autonomous physical agent, such as a moving robot or a person with their mobile device, performing a task in a spatio-temporal environment often requires interaction with other agents. Such interaction can be initiated by ad-hoc collaborative planning and decision-making, which then leads to physical support on site. Ad-hoc communication between agents, if performed in a peer-to-peer man...

Ad hoc networks can be used for quickly set up small spontaneous networks, such as in emergency situations or during sessions of cooperative works as in conferences, teaching rooms or meetings. Real-life tests of such networks are invaluable in order to assess models used in simulation. However, the number of factors affecting the performance of an ad hoc network is high, theoretically infinite...

Vehicular communication for road safety and traffic efficiency applications based on short-range wireless communication (IEEE 802.11p/ITS G5) and ad hoc networking has been extensively studied and is being tested in major field trials. For the same purpose, the usage of cellular mobile networks has recently received more attention. This paper investigates a case study of a road-works warning an...
