The current Social Web is centralized. Large information silos store all the users’ profiles, their social links and much of the other personal data. In return for the reliable service the users allow their data and activities to be data mined by the servi ...
Online social networks have gained importance in recent years. Furthermore, there is a need for designing smart applications for social networks which take into account the behaviour of dynamical processes over these networks. This requires structural know ...
Due to daylight variability, a design cannot be thoroughly assessed using single-moment simulations, which is why we need dynamic performance metrics like Daylight Autonomy and Useful Daylight Illuminance. Going one step further, the annual variation in pe ...
Route choice models are difficult to design and to estimate for various reasons. In this paper we focus on issues related to data. Indeed, real data in its original format are not related to the network used by the modeler and do therefore not correspond t ...

The use of Herbert Clark’s work as a theoretical framework in the Computer Supported Collaborative Work domain is often dismissed or judged as “cooked” and led to a large body of controversy. This article intends to reconsider his contribution and re-exami ...
This paper introduces a personalized content preparation and delivery framework for universal multimedia access. This framework has a wealth of potential applications in broadcasting, the World Wide Web and mobile telecommunication. Content preparation dea ...
In the last three decades the management of information technologies has become a major issue in most organizations. In this context, virtual communities (VC), as a means to technologically foster collective social exchanges, are often proposed as viable s ...
Implementing sustainable development (SD) requires operationalizing this rather vague guiding principle in a socio-technological context. This paper refers to a notion of SD that stresses approaching SD from a systemic perspective. We first present the Fun ...
In this paper, we present our spreadsheet framework, which uses a spreadsheet-like interface for exploring biomedical datasets. The principles and advantages of this class of visualization systems are illustrated, and a case study for the analysis of hip j ...
