The strength of GIS is in providing a rich data infrastructure for combining disparate data in meaningful ways by using a spatial arrangement (e.g., proximity). As a toolbox, a GI...
The force-update-rate requirements of transparent rendering of virtual environments are in conflict with the computational cost required for computing complex interactions betwee...
In previous work we have presented a prototype of an assistant system for the blind that can be used for self-localization and interactive object identification of static objects ...
In this paper we describe a multi-agent simulation called the Human Agent Virtual Environment (or HAVE). HAVE is a test bed to explore agent-environment interaction in multiagent ...
—Efficient discovery of nearby devices and services is one of the preconditions to obtain a usable pervasive environment. Typical user interfaces in these environments hide the ...
