Personalized navigation of heterogeneous product spaces using SmartClient

Boi Faltings, Pearl Pu Faltings

Personalization in e-commerce has so far been server-centric, requiring users to create a separate individual profile on each server that they like to access. As product information is increasingly coming from multiple and heterogeneous sources, the number ...

SmartClients: Constraint satisfaction as a paradigm for scaleable intelligent information systems

Boi Faltings, Pearl Pu Faltings

Many information systems are used in a problem solving context. Examples are travel planning systems, catalogs in electronic commerce, or agenda planning systems. They can be made more useful by integrating problem-solving capabilities into the information ...

Behavioural Description Formalisms for Service Integration - Survey and Comparation

Boi Faltings, Ion Constantinescu

Current web infrastructure is oriented on human-machine interactions. Developments for next generation large-scale information systems (such as Web Services and ebXML) however aim to allow for automated interactions between arbitrary systems / services. Th ...

Efficient Matchmaking and Directory Services

Boi Faltings, Ion Constantinescu

It has been widely recognised that matchmaking is an important component of heterogeneous multiagent systems. Several researchers have developed powerful techniques for the matchmaking problem in general. There are also specific representation of agent cap ...

IconoNET: a tool for automated bandwidth allocation planning

Christoph Frei, Boi Faltings, Pearl Pu Faltings

Communication networks are expected to offer a wide range of services to an increasingly large number of users, with a diverse range of quality of service. This calls for efficient control and management of these networks. In this paper, we address the pro ...

Enriching buyers' experiences: the SmartClient approach

Boi Faltings, Pearl Pu Faltings

In electronic commerce, a satisfying buyer experience is a key competitive element. We show new techniques for better adapting interaction with an electronic catalog system to actual buying behavior. Our model replaces the sequential separation of needs id ...

A Dynamic Hierarchy of Intelligent Agents for Network Management

Boi Faltings, Christian Frei

Routing as well as the management of communication networks that support hybrid types of communications requiring quality of service is a hard problem. We present here a framework1 that decomposes the network into a hierarchy of abstract views of the netwo ...

Applying means-ends analysis to spatial planning

Boi Faltings, Pearl Pu Faltings

Currently known methods for robot planning fall far behind human capabilities: they require approximations of shapes, and they cannot generate plans which involve moving obstacles to clear a path for the moving object. In this paper, we explore the hypothe ...
