Images are widely used in web pages. However, most web images can only be viewed passively. Currently, it remains inconvenient for users to collect and save web images for further editing. The positioning of a certain image in web pages with a large number of images, such as the image search results, is also troublesome and time-wasting, especially for mobile devices with small screens. In this paper,...
In this paper, we propose a context-aware system framework characteristic of two novel features. First, this framework is capable of modeling highly complex usage scenarios as a finite state machine while having transitions controlled by context information. And, this framework is designed with Augmented Reality capability as an integral component in its overall architecture to enable augmented interaction...
Context data management is a challenging task in context aware application development. Highly dynamic data coming from distributed providers has to be acquired, processed, managed and stored in order to provide applications with real time up to date context data. A lot of work has been done in the area of Contextual Computing, proposing several architectures and frameworks. However, none of them...
Friend of a Friend (FOAF) introductions are an effective means to grow detected social graphs in mobile applications. By detecting triadic closure in the social graph they both introduce co-present users who are not already acquainted, and improve the accuracy of the social graph. We searched for the presence of triadic closure in a real mobile social network, and tested the suitability of FOAF introductions...
With the rise of mobile Internet and cloud computing new ubiquitous medical services will emerge coinciding with changes in demographics and social structures. Mobile e-health and Wellness applications can help relieving the burden of accelerating health care costs due to aging societies. In order to leverage these new innovations a holistic approach must be considered. Facilitating user centered...
