Children (N = 114, ages 7–13) witnessed a transgressor steal money from wallet and then asked them to lie about the theft when interviewed by novel interviewer. During interview, children were either describe various experienced events (Narrative Practice Rapport-building condition) or participate in an interactive activity designed focus on relational aspects of rapport-building including mutu...

We propose an interactive tabu search (ITS) to be used for the development support of a product that fits a human’s feeling. Interactive evolutionary computation (IEC) is one of the technologies used in the development support of products that fit a human’s feeling using a computer and person undergoing a communication. The interactive generic algorithm (IGA) is generally used in the IEC. A maj...

In daily conversations, overlaps can be placed at IU boundary. However, most of them violate the sequential organization of talk and occur within an IU. The purpose of this study is to explore how the Chinese speakers initiate overlap at these two major sites. The results show that the interactive function of the initiator’s utterance does not determine the placement of overlap. The distributio...

Abstract Batch scheduling systems are usually designed to maximise fair resource utilisation and efficiency, but less well for demanding interactive processing, which requires fast access resources while low upstart latency is only of secondary significance high throughput performance computing systems. The clusters at DESY intended as batch end users run massive analysis simulation jobs enabli...

To present a skillfully written abstract, an author should apply some strategies. One of them is the application Metadiscourse Markers, which provides readers with linguistic features that will help quickly get gist entire research. Studies have examined metadiscourse markers in abstracts theses and published article journals by Indonesian, but only few used corpus-based approach analyzed error...

Intelligent multimodal interfaces can facilitate scientists in utilising available information resources. Combining scientific visualisations with interactive and intelligent tools can help create a “habitable” information space. Development of such tools remains largely iterative. We discuss an ongoing implementation of intelligent interactive visualisation of information resources in cell bio...

In this paper we describe patterns of spatial co-ordination that, we propose, are a distinctive characteristic of multi-person face-to-face interactions. The data come from a task in which participants describe some simple, non-spatial, computer code in an instructor / learner scenario. Three participants take part; 2 instructors and 1 learner. Using excerpts from these interactions we show tha...
