This paper mainly introduced how WAP, Google API and 51ditu API were applied to the System of Insects’ Classification Retrieval. The introduction of Google API makes the query interface more visualized, convenient and humane. The purpose of 51ditu API is to provide support for decision-making when open country investigators are considering investigation routes. The application of WAP enables to...

Women are underrepresented in the digital games industry all over the world. In Australia, women’s level of contribution to game development is much lower than the USA, Canada, and UK. Reviewing literature from the areas of computer science, information technology, and digital games, this study focuses on the impact of social, structural and cultural aspects, and how these factors might influen...

Systems development research shows that practitioners seldom follow methods and that the competencies required for successful development of computer-based systems go well beyond those represented in contemporary methods. These insights make us question the role that methods should play in educating would-be developers. Pedagogical theories, such as situated learning and double-loop learning, c...

This paper presents the results of an ethnography of a small evolutionary software development project in a British oil company, focusing on the relationship between users and software developers. The discussion starts by looking at how activities come to be defined as either “user” or “developer” jobs. At the company studied there was considerable conflict over the user development of Lotus No...

Time has been a focus of study in AI since its beginning. A significant percentage of papers presented at major conferences, such as the National Conference on AI (a.k.a. AAAI) and the International Joint Conference on AI, are concerned either directly or indirectly with time. The topic is studied under many guises. Some of the more obvious are: planning and reasoning about action, scheduling, ...

We study the Conference Reviewer Assignment Problem, reducing it to an instance of a Minimum Cost Network Flow in an appropriate network. Building upon this formulation ([SC09]), we address the issue of estimating the parameters in the model efficiently and reliably. Two techniques are proposed, their assumptions and limitations are explored and benchmarked using a real-world dataset. Closed-fo...

This paper proposed a virtual conference audio reconstruction model based on spatial audio object. The aim of the model is to enhance the realistic experience of virtual conference. Firstly, the conference audio synthesis method is given according the principle of the virtual conference. Then the spatial audio parameters interaural level difference (ILD) are used to reconstruct the spatial soun...
