Active structures capable of responding to external stimulii represent the emerging frontier in structural design. Robust and real-time sensing, control, and actuation pose fundame...
The event-condition-action paradigm (also known as triggers or rules) is a powerful technology. It gives a database “active” capabilities – the ability to react automatically...
In this paper, XfaceEd, our open source, platform independent tool for authoring 3D embodied conversational agents (ECAs) is presented. Following MPEG-4 Facial Animation (FA) stan...
Excessive power consumption is becoming a major barrier to extracting the maximum performance from high-performance parallel systems. Therefore, techniques oriented towards reduci...
