Intelligent learning agent for collaborative virtual workspace
Elhadi Shakshuki, Abdur Rafey MatinIntelligent agents are becoming an essential part of collaborative virtual environments. The purpose of this paper is to present an architecture of a learning agent that is able…
A simple probabilistic analysis of sensor data fluctuations in the real world
Kaoru Hiramatsu, Takashi Hattori, Tatsumi Yamada, Takeshi OkadomeThe purpose of this paper is to focus on sensor data fluctuations. Context‐aware applications in the real world adapt their behavior to contexts abstracted from real‐world…
An improved method of task context switching in OSEK operating system
Zhaohui Wu, Hong Li, Guoqing Yang, Zhigang Gao, Pan LvThe purpose of this paper is to focus on the method to improve real‐time property of real‐time operating system (RTOS), one of the most essential problems in RTOS studies.
A behavioral characteristics model for a flexible distributed system
Akiko Takahashi, Tetsuo KinoshitaWith the wide spread of the ubiquitous environment, it is necessary to provide adequate multimedia communication services for various users under various networked environments…
Ubiquitous QoS communications using scalable satellite networking
Arjan Durresi, Leonard Barolli, Akio Koyama, Makoto TakizawaSatellite networking will be an important component of future ubiquitous communications systems. Satellite networks will be especially useful to interconnect remote sensor…
Gentle supervisory system based on integration of environmental information and social knowledge
Hideyuki Takahashi, Kazuhiro Yamanaka, Satoru Izumi, Yoshikazu Tokairin, Takuo Suganuma, Norio ShiratoriReal‐time multimedia supervisory systems generally include a distributed system that delivers live video input captured with cameras at the watched person's site, using a PC or…
An energy‐saving strategy based on sleep scheduling and block transmission for wireless multimedia sensor networks
Chao Sha, Ruchuan Wang, Haiping Huang, Lijuan SunEnergy consumption is a fundamental concern in wireless multimedia sensor networks, even more than that in traditional wireless sensor networks. In fact, sensors are…
