This paper shares the authors experience in designing and implementing an
intelligent tutoring system. Furthermore it outlines recommendations for
educators and developers who are committed to advancing Web based learning
software. Building on-line learning software requires many skills including
interface design, software engineering and development, use of Web design

This paper examines factors which might affect the performance of e-commerce Web
sites, and presents a framework for evaluation. We introduce a workable
framework for evaluating web sites. Key success factors, based on earlier
research, are used as objective performance measures. The framework was used to
assess a selected range of on-line businesses. The outcome of the study
demonstrated the appr... hiện toàn bộ
Constructing expert systems (such as production rules sets, decision trees or
decision tables) is a crucial task in multiple disciplines. They encapsulate the
domain knowledge as well as the application's logic. In this paper, a powerful
visual tool for developing expert systems is introduced. It comes with a
dictionary-based approach for the integration of expert systems into host
projects. A pra... hiện toàn bộ

With the proliferation of mobile computing devices there is an increasing demand
for applications supporting collaboration among users working in the field and
in the office. A key component for collaboration in this domain is sharing and
manipulation of information using very different devices and communications. We
propose a novel, data-centric collaboration paradigm, where each user can obtain

The applications and network services are key points that could provide the user
the necessary quality of service. It is very hard to definitely divide the
applications and the underlying services to uniquely describe the application
and the service classes. This paper tries to comprise different classes of
applications into a unique classification. Different standpoints and criteria
are included ... hiện toàn bộ

This paper describes components technologies and artificial intelligence methods
for efficient and effective management of instruction in a distributed
collaborative learning environment. The approach presented in this paper allows
E-Learning systems to be able to adapt to changing knowledge requirements of the
user, be interactive, and provide uniform access to instructional materials.

Nowadays it is commonly accepted that the web is structured in a chaotic way.
Due to the fact that it grows exponentially, it is a difficult task to
efficiently locate specific information. This paper presents a User-defined
Meta-Search Engine (UMSE), adaptable to user preferences. UMSE utilises tip to 9
known search engines according to a user-defined ranking, submits its queries in
parallel and ... hiện toàn bộ
Quality of voice transportation over packet networks depends on three critical
parameters: packet loss, absolute packet delay and packet delay variation
(jitter). Common practical problem is how to estimate voice quality for a
different number of voice sources with different source characteristics in
target networks. Important characteristics of a voice source are: rate (packets
per second), packe... hiện toàn bộ

Proactive system monitoring is the search for potential problems in the
Information Systems (IS) before they occur. With reference to IS, monitoring is
always proactive. Watching for evidence of emerging or potential problems and
identifying their source (factor), checking available disk space, the health of
essential processes, probing systems to ensure that they are reachable, business

The L(2,1)-coloring is an abstraction of assigning integer frequencies to radio
transmitters such that transmitters that are one unit of distance apart receive
frequencies that differ by at least two, and transmitters that are two units
apart receive frequencies that differ by at least one. In particular, the
L(2,1)-coloring in the two dimensional torus (the Cartesian product of two
cycles) is con... hiện toàn bộ
