Abstract. In recent years, mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) have been deployed in various scenarios, but their scalability is severely restricted by the human operators’ ability t...
Wireless ad-hoc networks do not rely on a pre-existing network structure and are characterized by dynamic changes in the topology. This characteristic makes it difficult to perform...
We take the position that large-scale distributed systems are better understood, at all levels, when locality is taken into account. When communication and mobility are clearly se...
—Recently, many researchers have studied on animated pedagogical agents to improve students’ learning experience in educational systems. In this paper, we describe how personal...
