Incumbent telecommunication service providers have a long history and strong capabilities in network services. With increasing competition with firms from various technological trajectories (Internet, Cable TV and Satellite) boosted by technological and service convergence, leading incumbent telecommunication service providers have strategically repositioned themselves to include IT-driven services,...
In this paper, we discuss the construction of dialogs for Personal Assistant Agents that are in charge of the interface between users and a Multi-Agent System. Such a system aims at providing support for small teams developing software collaboratively. These small teams have specific needs such as the integration of free or open-source tools or the support to elaborate project documentation. Considering...
The research on CSCW and groupware systems focus the activities of distributed teams involved in large projects by means of tools for communication and awareness. The activities of small collocated teams are often neglected. Analyzing preliminary requirements of small teams, it is possible to observe the need of tools to help the elaboration of project documentation. This paper presents a multi-agent...
ccJava, a new kind of class-based AOP language, provides the weaving-interface mechanism in which the weaving can be realized by the component-and-connector architecture. The interface description constructs in ccJava can be considered a kind of architecture description language that takes into account the weaving. This paper provides a lightweight verification approach using Alloy, a structural modeling...
In array processors, data I/O management is the key to realizing high-speed matrix operations that are often required in signal and image processing. In this paper, we propose an array processor utilizing an effective data I/O mechanism featuring external FIFOs. The FIFOs are used to buffer initial matrix data and partially processed results. Therefore, if all required data are stored in the FIFOs,...
