The eSleeve: a novel wearable computer configuration for the discovery of situated information
- Trang 793-796
Describes work in progress on wearable computing configurations which provide audio and visual output based on the position and orientation of the user. We introduce the 'eSleeve'-a wearable wrist computer with position and heading sensors combined with a user interface employing speech recognition and a small display. Applications described include searching a database of locations, and implement......

The numeric indexing for music data
- Trang 258-263
The management of large collections of music data in a multimedia database has received much attention in the past few years. In most current work, researchers extract features from the music data and develop indices that will help to retrieve the relevant music quickly. Several reports have pointed out that these features of music can be transformed and represented in the form of music feature st......

DBGlobe: a data-centric approach to global computing
- Trang 735-740
In the near future, there will be increasingly powerful computers in smart cards, telephones, and other information appliances. This will create a massive infrastructure composed of highly diverse interconnected mobile entities. In this paper, we present a data-centric approach to storage and querying in such environments. At a first level, we view each entity as a miniature database; at a second ......

Multimedia customisation using an event notification protocol
- Trang 549-554
Online personalisation is of great interest to companies. Event notification systems are becoming more and more popular as a natural candidate to provide personalised services. Although event notification protocols do not immediately spring to mind as the most sensible transport of realtime streams, our approach does utilise a content-based event notification protocol. In this paper we present an ......

An agent based matchmaking system using knowledge base
- Trang 142-146
With the spread of the Internet, the number of users and hosts has been increased exponentially. Also, newly emerging services try to provide users with more enhanced quality of service (QoS). The increase of users and hosts and the enhancement of QoS have caused a radical increase of Internet traffic. As a result, it is very difficult for users to find required information and the information loc......

The design of interactive negotiation agent on the Web
- Trang 176-181
Because of the growth of Internet commerce, individual online transactions will grow rapidly. So in this paper we propose an interactive negotiation agent system on the Internet to help buyers make decisions. We use multi-attribute utility theory as the basic decision making strategy and the theorem is useful for the multicriteria decision. We stated the user goal that can be divided into several ......

A transmission service with three-queue management for a distributed remote monitoring environment
- Trang 217-221
A high-speed fixed network is not suitable for a distributed remote monitoring environment because it lacks mobility. Therefore, wireless communication is another choice for transmission. This paper proposes a transmission service to classify the transmitted data into three kinds of transmission events. Three priority queues are used to receive the corresponding events and transmit these data acco......

Analytical performance prediction of WWW distributed cache management (DCM) protocols
- Trang 812-819
We introduce analytical models for predicting the performance of World Wide Web (WWW) proxy caches that are distributed over multiple proxy machines under various management protocol assumptions. The purpose of these models is to determine which distributed cache management (DCM) protocols are to be used for large-scale distributed caches. The accuracy and usefulness of our models is assessed by c......

Peer-to-peer for collaborative applications
- Trang 359-364
Peer-to-peer systems recently captured the attention of practitioners and researchers as they provide an attractive alternative to client-server architectures. Peer-to-peer enables the creation of massively distributed networks of data repositories that can be setup and discarded easily according to applicative needs. Nevertheless, the current popularity of these systems is due mostly to their use......

An integrated distance learning system capable of supporting interactions for asynchronous distance learning
- Trang 116-121
In recent years, as the demand grows for taking lectures without the limitation of time and place by those who have jobs and require life-long education, expectations are increasing for the implementation of a distance learning system. However, in most existing asynchronous distance learning systems, the images shown on screen are limited to images of the teacher with synchronized digital document......
