A field study of Computer Mediated Communication (CMC) as used in higher education asks the questions, "Will students take part in synchronous chat sessions if they are sched...
Several applications support the adaptation of course material. Even though most of these systems allow to specify interaction preferences or even employ user modeling techniques,...
Unpredictability in COTS-based systems often manifests as occasional instances of uncontrollably-high response times. A particular category of COTS systems, fault-tolerant (FT) mid...
In this work we study the complexity of the three-dimensional sandpile avalanches triggered by the addition of two critical configurations. We prove that the algorithmic problem c...
