A physically realistic framework for the generation of high-level animation controllers
Authors: Olivier Parisy, Christophe Schlick
Venue: Proceedings of the 2nd international symposium on Smart graphics (2002)

Artificial life techniques can be seen as an evolution of animation techniques, shifting most of the low-level control tasks traditionally performed by an animator to control systems, which can be manually (task-driven animation) or automatically (behavioural animation) handled. In this last situation, a rich environment from which interesting strategies can be extracted by evolutive creatures is needed. We will describe here a simulation framework that we developed for this purpose, and show how it can be used as a starting point for the development of dynamic behavioural systems.
Intelligent support of visual data analysis in Descartes
Authors: Gennady Andrienko, Natalia Andrienko
Venue: Proceedings of the 2nd international symposium on Smart graphics (2002)

Descartes is a knowledge-based system supporting exploratory analysis of spatially referenced data with the use of maps. It is capable of automated generation of maps and other graphical displays that represent data selected for analysis. Besides, the system selects and combines appropriate analytical instruments (graphical displays, data transformations, interactive operations etc.) depending on the analysis task the user needs to perform and instructs the user how to employ these instruments for this task. The intelligent behaviour of the system is based on three kinds of knowledge: the rules of data representation depending on the characteristics of the data and relationships between data components, the possible analysis tasks and correspondence between the tasks and the available instruments, and domain-specific knowledge allowing the system to "understand" the content of data.
Negative scenarios for implied scenario elicitation
Authors: Sebastian Uchitel, Jeff Kramer, Jeff Magee
Venue: Proceedings of the 10th ACM SIGSOFT symposium on Foundations of software engineering (2002)

Scenario-based specifications such as Message Sequence Charts (MSCs) are popular for requirement elicitation and specification. MSCs describe two distinct aspects of a system: on the one hand they provide examples of intended system behaviour and on the other they outline the system architecture. A mismatch between architecture and behaviour may give rise to implied scenarios. Implied scenarios occur because a component's local view of the system state is insufficient to enforce specified system behaviour. An implied scenario indicates a gap in the MSC specification that needs to be clarified. It may simply mean that an acceptable scenario has been overlooked and should be added to the scenario specification. Alternatively, it may represent an unacceptable behaviour which should be documented and avoided in the final implementation. Thus implied scenarios can be used to iteratively drive requirements elicitation. However, in order to do so, tools for coping with rejected implied scenarios are needed. The contributions of this paper are twofold. Firstly, we define a language for describing negative scenarios. Secondly, we complement existing implied scenario detection methods with techniques for accommodating negative scenarios.

A taxonomy of wireless micro-sensor network models
Authors: Sameer Tilak, Nael B. Abu-Ghazaleh, Wendi Heinzelman
Venue: ACM SIGMOBILE Mobile Computing and Communications Review (2002)

In future smart environments, wireless sensor networks will play a key role in sensing, collecting, and disseminating information about environmental phenomena. Sensing applications represent a new paradigm for network operation, one that has different goals from more traditional wireless networks. This paper examines this emerging field to classify wireless micro-sensor networks according to different communication functions, data delivery models, and network dynamics. This taxonomy will aid in defining appropriate communication infrastructures for different sensor network application sub-spaces, allowing network designers to choose the protocol architecture that best matches the goals of their application. In addition, this taxonomy will enable new sensor network models to be defined for use in further research in this area.
An enforced inter-admission delay performance-driven connection admission control algorithm
Authors: Stanislav Belenki
Venue: ACM SIGCOMM Computer Communication Review (2002)

Connection Admission Control (CAC) is an important function in a computer network that supports Quality of Service (QoS). The function of CAC is to decide whether a new connection can be admitted on the network or a part of the network in such a way that the QoS of the new connection and the already established connections will remain within the requested limits. CAC must also ensure that network resources are used efficiently avoiding unnecessary rejections of candidate connections. Some CAC algorithms attempt to estimate or derive available resources in each hop between the source and the destination. Then they use parameters of the candidate flow and the knowledge about the available resources to make the admission decision. Very often such algorithms use measurements to find out availability of the resources. Hence the name of such algorithms, Measurement-Based CAC (MBCAC). Another class of CAC algorithms assumes that it is the end nodes and not the network that should perform the connection admission. These algorithms use probing packets to probe the path between the end nodes for the requested level of QoS. In this paper a heuristic-based per-hop CAC algorithm is introduced that adapts the average rate of connection admission in response to the measured system performance. In particular, the algorithm decreases the rate of the connection admission when the system is overloaded and increases it when the system is underutilized. The paper uses simulations to show that the algorithm is free from the shortcomings of the current MBCAC algorithms.

OSI-Abstract-Data-Manipulation API (XOM)
Authors: X-Open Staff, X.400 API Association
Venue:  (1997)

:This document defines the application programming interface (API) to management of Open Systems Interconnection (OSI) objects. This interface is needed by other APIs specific to particular OSI services. Currently, these include the X/Open APIs to Directory Services (XDS), Electronic Mail (X.400) and Systems Management Protocols (XMP). This Issue 2 includes revisions to align with the IEEE OSI-Abstract-Data Manipulation group of standards, which themselves are based on the previous version of this specification. All new implementation work by API providers should be based on this Issue 2. The previous specification will be retained by X/Open for only as long as branding is available for products based on it. XOM is one of several specifications that X/Open originally developed in collaboration with the X.400 API Association. The XDS and X.400 specifications have similarly served as bases for corresponding IEEE standards and have been upgraded to Issue 2 for IEEE alignment. X/Open and Prentice Hall are pleased to join forces to make available some of X/Open's key works. This title is especially selected by X/Open and Prentice Hall for distribution through the international book trade by Prentice Hall.
