In this paper we seek to empirically study the use of location-awareness of others in the context of mobile collaboration. We report on a field experiment carried out using a pervasive game we developed called CatchBob!. Using both quantitative and qualita ...
Building ubiquitous applications that exploit location requires both low-level underlying infrastructure for linking sensors and managing spatial information and also high-level representation of the measured space to produce a pleasant user experience. Ho ...
This work aims at a better understanding of transport mechanisms which take place in organic semiconductors such as pentacene. More accurately, we believe that the electronic polarization plays a leading part, which we try to identify in the particular cas ...
In this work, we address the security of VANETs. We provide a detailed threat analysis and devise an appropriate security architecture. We also describe some major design decisions still to be made, which in some cases have more than mere technical implica ...
Current issues in both tissue engineering and cell biology deal with cell behavior extensively in 3D. Here, we explore synchrotron radiation micro-computed tomography as a tool for morphological characterization of such 3D cellular constructs, providing mi ...
In this thesis, the modelling and scheduling of remanufacturing systems is considered. An eXtended two-level Coloured Petri Net (XCPN) model is proposed for the objective of modelling remanufacturing shops. The extended model integrates the formalism of an ...
A fundamental statistical problem is to indicate which of two hypotheses is better supported by the data. Statistics designed for this purpose are called weight of evidence. In this paper we study the problem of robust weights of evidence, optimal in their ...
We propose a test case selection methodology for object-oriented software. This methodology is based on formal specifications and is aimed at verifying the correctness of method interaction of an object or a cluster of objects. The essence of this methodol ...
We have developed a digital holographic microscope (DHM), in a transmission mode, adapted to the quantitative study of cellular dynamics. Living cells in culture are optically probed by measuring the phase shift they produce on the transmitted wave front. ...
We quantitatively study the effect of growth-induced reduction of long range structural order on the superconducting transition in epitaxial YBa2Cu3O6.9 films. The corresponding reduction of structural coherence length r(c) is determined from the width of ...
