This paper presents semiotic engineering – a semiotic theory of HCI. The theory has the advantage to integrate back end and front end design and development perspectives into a single metacommunication process that aff...

This book aims to cover both the ontological determination and the characterization of what we call with terms such as disease and others related. The current edition is a more complete version of the first edition in Sp...

Nowadays, data intensive applications are in constant demand and there is need of computing environments with better intelligent capabilities than those present in today's Database Management Systems (DBMS). To build suc...

An important and largely area of computer image generation is that related with geographic information. Geographic data can be used for analysis, design and evaluation in natural-resource assessment, regional planning, a...

A program for the interactive design of elliptic approximation functions on personal computers 1s presented. The use of non-classical el1iptic functions and arithmetic-geometric iterations results in a substantial reduct...

In this article, we discuss the usability and customizability issues of interactive animations and simulations in web-based learning systems. The approach presented here extended our component-based architecture to build...

Nowadays information circulates quickly in a human organization, what generates an internal difficulty in preserving inside the organization essential information to support decision-making. Decision Support Systems (DSS...

In December, 2019, a local outbreak of pneumonia of initially unknown cause was detected in Wuhan (Hubei, China), and was quickly determined to be caused by a novel coronavirus,1WHOWHO statement regarding cluster of pneu...

Our efforts are directed towards the understanding of the coscheduling mechanism in a NOW system when a parallel job is executed jointly with local workloads, balancing parallel perfor-mance against the local interactive...

Interactive visualisation of triangulated terrain surfaces is still a problem for virtual reality systems. A polygonal model of very large terrain data requires a large number of triangles. The main problems are the repr...

Current interactive multimedia learning software can not be accessed by learners with disabilities. This is the case for students with vision disabilities. Modeling techniques are necessary to map real world experiences ...

The term Animated Systems has been introduced in the bibliography in reference to interactive dynarnic worlds simulations, composed of interacting independent objects [Tra96]. Simulation is a powerful tool because it al...

The reusability of learning material is based on three main features: modularity, discoverability and interoperability. Several researchers on Intelligent Learning Environments have proposed the use of architectures bas...

The use of generic and generative methods for the development and application of interactive educational software is a relatively unexplored area in industry and education. Advantages of generic and generative techniques...

The problem of information retrieval has attracted increasing attention in recent years. The amount of information sources via networks has grown and is still rapidly growing. Although existing search engines provide rap...

CHARMM is an academic research program used widely for macromolecular mechanics and dynamics with versatile analysis and manipulation tools of atomic coordinates and dynamics trajectories. CHARMM-GUI, http://www.charmm-g...
