Collaborative stretcher carrying: a case study
Authors: Roger J. Hubbold
Venue: Proceedings of the workshop on Virtual environments 2002 (2002)

This paper describes a simulation of a collaborative task in a shared virtual environment --- two users carrying a shared object (a stretcher) in a complex chemical plant. The implementation includes a haptic interface for each user, so that forces transmitted through the stretcher from one user to the other can be experienced. Preliminary experiments show that the addition of haptic feedback significantly enhances the sense of sharing and each user's perception of the actions of the other user. The implementation is described, and some conclusions about the value of haptics, and plans for future work are given.

Caching constrained mobile data
Authors: Subhasish Mazumdar, Mateusz Pietrzyk, Panos Chrysanthis
Venue: Proceedings of the tenth international conference on Information and knowledge management (2001)

As mobile devices get ubiquitous and grow in computational power, their management of interdependent data also becomes increasingly important. The mobile environment exhibits all the characteristics of a distributed database plus the feature of whimsical connectivity. Consequently, transactions respecting data consistency can suffer unbounded and unpredictable delays at both mobile and stationary nodes. The currently popular multi-tier model, in which mobile devices are in one end and always-connected stationary servers in the other, has certain practical advantages. However, it assumes that all integrity constraints are evaluated at the servers and hence relies on the semantics of operations for any autonomy enhancement of the mobile devices. In this paper, we examine the idea of constraint localization in cases where two mobile nodes each own data that share a constraint. It relies on reformulation of a constraint into more flexible local constraints that give more autonomy to the mobile nodes. The scheme also involves dynamic changes of these local constraints through negotiation, which we call re-localization. To overcome the problem of simultaneous requests for such re-localization, we give algorithms along with experimental results indicating their effectiveness.

Information sharing and security in dynamic coalitions
Authors: Charles E. Phillips,  Jr., T.C. Ting, Steven A. Demurjian
Venue: Proceedings of the seventh ACM symposium on Access control models and technologies (2002)

Today, information sharing is critical to almost every institution. There is no more critical need for information sharing than during an international crisis, when international coalitions dynamically form. In the event of a crisis, whether it is humanitarian relief, natural disaster, combat operations, or terrorist incidents, international coalitions have an immediate need for information. These coalitions are formed with international cooperation, where each participating country offers whatever resources it can muster to support the given crisis. These situations can occur suddenly, simultaneously, and without warning. Often times, participants are coalition partners in one crisis and adversaries in another, raising difficult security issues with respect to information sharing. Our specific interest is in the Dynamic Coalition Problem (DCP), with an emphasis on the information sharing and security risks when coalitions are formed in response to a crisis. This paper defines the DCP and explores its intricate, challenging, and complex information and resource sharing, and security issues, utilizing real-world situations, which are drawn from a military domain.
Hidden Markov models for modeling and recognizing gesture under variation
Authors: Andrew D. Wilson, Aaron F. Bobick
Venue: Hidden Markov models: applications in computer vision (2001)

Conventional application of hidden Markov models to the task of recognizing human gesture may suffer from multiple sources of systematic variation in the sensor outputs. We present two frameworks based on hidden Markov models which are designed to model and recognize gestures that vary in systematic ways. In the first, the systematic variation is assumed to be communicative in nature, and the input gesture is assumed to belong to gesture family. The variation across the family is modeled explicity by the parametric hidden Markov model (PHMM). In the second framework, variation in the signal is overcome by relying on online learning rather than conventional offline, batch learning.
Forced simulation: A technique for automating component reuse in embedded systems
Authors: Partha S. Roop, A. Sowmya, S. Ramesh
Venue: ACM Transactions on Design Automation of Electronic Systems (TODAES) (2001)

Component reuse techniques have been a recent focus of research because they are seen as the next-generation techniques to handle increasing system complexities. However, there are several unresolved issues to be addressed and prominent among them is the issue of component matching. As the number of reusable components in a component database grows, the task of manually matching a component to the user requirements becomes infeasible. Automating this matching can help in rapid system prototyping, improving quality and reducing cost. In addition, if the matching algorithm is sound, this approach can also reduce precious validation effort.In this article, we propose an algorithm for automatic matching of a design function to a device from a component database. The distinguishing feature of the algorithm is that when successful, it generates an interface that can automatically adapt the device to behave as the function. The algorithm is based on a new simulation relation called forced simulation that is shown to be a necessary and sufficient condition for component matching to be possible for a given pair of function and device. We demonstrate the application of the algorithm by reusing on some programmable components of the Intel family.
Design and optimization of cellular manufacturing systems: a methodology for developing robotic workcell simulation models
Authors: Frank S. Cheng
Venue: Proceedings of the 32nd conference on Winter simulation (2000)

Robotic workcell simulation is a modeling-based problem solving approach developed for the design, analysis, and offline programming of robotic workcells. Current industrial practices show that commercial robotic simulation software packages are able to provide designers with an interactive and virtual environment in which credible solutions for robotic workcell designs can be obtained. However, conducting robotic workcell simulation studies via robotic simulation packages require designers to carry out complex processes of modeling, programming, and analysis, which often results in technical challenges and difficulties. In this paper, a methodology for developing robotic workcell simulation models via Deneb IGRIP technology is introduced. The development of the method is based on successful applications of Deneb's IGRIP robotic simulation software in designing real robotic workcells.
Desktop support without visiting the desktop
Authors: Kim Hirschenhofer, Suzanne Nanis
Venue: Proceedings of the 29th annual ACM SIGUCCS conference on User services (2001)

The University of Delaware (UD) is implementing PeopleSoft's Human Resources Module for use on campus. A six-member team from Information Technologies (IT) User Services completed the desktop installations for administrative office staff computers. These installations-as well as subsequent upgrades and updates-required substantial planning, complex coordination efforts, and time-consuming office visits.To save staff resources and eliminate the need for the User Services staff to make recurring office calls, we automated the PeopleSoft installation process using the Open Software Associate's (OSA) netDeploy program and the Internet. Administrative staff currently link to a web site to obtain automated PeopleSoft installation and/or updates.
