Load distributing for locally distributed systems

The problem of judiciously and transparently redistributing the load of the system among its nodes so that overall performance is maximized is discussed. Several key issues in load distributing for general-purpose systems, including the mot...

How AI threat perception relates to post-adoptive AI agent engagement: the dual paths of self-efficacy and defensive motivation.

Advances in Energy, Environment and Materials Science

The International Conference on Energy, Environment and Materials Science (EEMS2015) was held in Guangzhou, China, from August 25 - 26, 2015. EEMS2015 provided a platform for academic scientists, researchers and scholars to exchange and sha...

Embodied science and mixed reality: How gesture and motion capture affect physics education

Abstract A mixed design was created using text and game-like multimedia to instruct in the content of physics. The study assessed which variables predicted learning gains after a 1-h lesson on the electric field. The three manipulated varia...

Spacing Allocation Method for Vehicular Platoon: A Cooperative Game Theory Approach

Recently, spacing policies of the vehicular platoon have been widely developed to enhance safety, traffic efficiency, and fuel consumption. However, the integrated spacing policies aim to maximum overall benefit, and the distributed spacing...

Vape Smoking: Prevalence and Perception among Damnhour University Students

Background: E-cigarette or vape smoking is becoming a worldwide concern, yet vapinginformation is not widespread among Middle Eastern university students. The paper offers the pattern ofvape smoking in Damnhour University, Egypt, which uses...

AI-supported virtual laboratory for flipped physics learning: effects on middle school students' achievement, motivation, and cognitive load.

OPTIMISER LE DÉVELOPPEMENT DES COMPÉTENCES ORALES DES ÉTUDIANTS : UNE APPROCHE PÉDAGOGIQUE AXÉE SUR L'ENGAGEMENT ACTIF DANS LES COURS DE LANGUE

Résumé : S’intéresser à l’agir de l’apprenant en pédagogie, c’est s’intéresser aux capacités des apprenants à construire eux-mêmes leurs savoirs et à agir sur leur apprentissage tout en interagissant avec les autres acteurs dans une perspec...

A call for an interdisciplinary ethical foundation for GenAI governance in higher education

Abstract Generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) systems are increasingly embedded in higher education, shaping writing, instructional design, and institutional approaches to academic integrity. In response, universities have developed p...

Inheritance in natural language processing

In this introduction to the special issues, we begin by outlining a concrete example that indicates some of the motivations leading to the widespread use of inheritance networks in computational linguistics. This example allows us to illust...

MedScan, a natural language processing engine for MEDLINE abstracts

MOTIVATION: The importance of extracting biomedical information from scientific publications is well recognized. A number of information extraction systems for the biomedical domain have been reported, but none of them have become widely us...

Le contact de langues entre Darija et Hassaniyya dans la ville de Laâyoune

Dans la présente contribution, nous nous interrogeons sur les pratiques langagières des habitants de la ville de Laâyoune dans une situation de contact linguistique entre la darija et la hassaniyya. Autrement dit, comment se manifeste l’alt...

AI feedback does not motivate by itself: a motivational-meaning model for university physical education.

Calibration and Orientation of Cameras in Computer Vision

One of my greatest hates is the edited book with chapters from a number of different authors, some of which have evidently been written in haste against the final deadline, and most of which show marked divergence of content, opinion, notat...

Problems In Indoor Mapping and Modelling

Research in support of indoor mapping and modelling (IMM) has been active for over thirty years. This research has come in the form of As-Built surveys, Data structuring, Visualisation techniques, Navigation models and so forth. Much of thi...

MAT-Fly: An Educational Platform for Simulating Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Aimed to Detect and Track Moving Objects

The main motivation of this work is to propose a simulation approach for a specific task within the Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) field, i.e., the visual detection and tracking of arbitrary moving objects. In particular, it is described MAT...
