In this work, a serious game is presented to sensitize young people to stigma in mental health. This a video game, developed by a multidisciplinary team (computer scientists, psychologists, psychiatrists and educators), features characters that have different mental disorders. It provides different information about what mental illness is while the player interacts with the characters in different...
This paper presents a complete system for management, maintenance, and deployment of operating systems called OpenGnSys. Such a system has been tested in a real teaching laboratory at the University of Huelva, Spain, which is devoted to practical works on networking. OpenGnSys operations, performed in an easy and intuitive way from a graphical console with remote functions, are managed by a high availability...
This paper proposes a new Metro Network Architecture based on two key technological pillars: the subwavelength optical switching technologies in the Data Plane (i.e. optical bursts and packets), and an enhanced GMPLS architecture in the Control Plane to extend network control to the subwavelengths, and ease the interworking of network and IT resources. The proposed architecture promises greater cost...
In this paper we present new techniques for simulating high performance MPI applications on large storage networks. Performance analysis of high performance application on large storage networks is a very complex and time-consuming task. However, modelling and studying the behaviour of any application on complex network architectures is crucial to obtain good performance. The goal of this work is...
In this paper we introduce M-PLAT, an intelligent tutoring system for helping students to learn the basics of programming languages. In fact, the M-PLAT system represents a full collection of intelligent tutoring systems, and due to its modular and hierarchical architecture it can be upgraded to deal with a new programming language that is not yet included in the system. Thus, this tutoring system...
High performance computers are becoming popular for non scientific areas. Growth of computer capacity, virtualization techniques, and network capacity, give an opportunity to exploit the potential of those systems and to integrate different concepts for improving resource utilization. In this paper, we propose an architecture which manages groups of distributed resources, deploying infrastructures...
To study and gain a better understanding of the power system dynamics, the concept of building a frequency monitoring network (FNET) was proposed in 2000 [1] and has been realized in 2003. The FNET system consists of many high dynamic precision frequency and phasor estimation devices, also known as frequency disturbance recorders (FDR). These FDRs can be used at any 110 V or 220 V wall outlet and...
