Radio Frequency IDentification (RFID) is the wireless non-contact system that uses radio-frequency waves to transfer data from a tag attached to an object, for the automatic identification and tracking. An internet based concept is incorporated with RFID technology to form an internet based application for the library management. The RFID reader Motorola MC9090 is used for the entire process which...
En este trabajo se muestra una herramienta educativa que tiene el objetivo de formar al alumno, mediante un proceso de autoaprendizaje, en los aspectos básicos del funcionamiento interno de las baterías de Litio-Ión, así como en sus características, aplicaciones más importantes y precauciones de uso. La aplicación ha sido desarrollada para que el alumno la pueda utilizar a través de una conexión a...
Today, the rapid development of technology and Internet use has become widespread. In addition, the use of internet in education has become mandatory. The advantages provided by distance education, distance learning educational opportunities regardless of time and place has become attractive. Web-Based Training, Distance learning and remains popular. The purpose of this study is to examine the affects...
This paper describes an ongoing project of a collaborative tool for maintaining prices of goods. Unlike most online search tools, which have an agreement with sellers to list their products, the proposed tool will provide greater flexibility and reliability through collaborative updates. This proposal is supposed to offer different kinds of access to the system, such as PCs through the web and mobile...
This paper analyzes the concept of components in Software Engineering (SE) through a sociotechnical approach. Based on a ranking of critical elements related to Component-Based SE, a study with experts concludes that components are potential assets in local and collaborative scenarios. This fact motivated an analysis of a value-based component market approach called Brechó-VCM considering its adherence...
This study describes a comparative analysys of accessibility for the blind used in SGEAD (Distant Learning Management Systems), TelEduc and WebCT according to criteria, recommendations and international norms such as heuristical evaluation techniques, automatic test of accessibility, inspection based on the points of verification of the W3C recommendations for the accessibility of the content of the...
Technology has always played a vital role in making material available to readers, since the printing press was invented in the fifteenth century. Various improvements in the technology of the print, from offset to desktop, have had dramatic impact on the cost and access of printed material. However, with the arrival of Digital Text, we may now be entering an entirely new era of publishing, which,...
Cue Utilization Theory is applied to examine the relative importance of each of the WebQual dimensions (Informational Fit-to-Task, Tailored Information, Trust, Response Time, Ease of Understanding, Intuitive Operations, Visual Appeal, Innovativeness, Emotional Appeal, Consistent Image, On-line Completeness, and Relative Advantage) in determining consumers' evaluation of website quality. Two studies...
We present TubeTagger, a concept-based video retrieval system that exploits Web video as an information source. The system performs a visual learning on YouTube clips (i. e., it trains detectors for semantic concepts like "soccer" or "windmill"), and a semantic learning on the associated tags (i.e., relations between concepts like "swimming" and "water" are...
This paper presents a Web community-based video retrieval method using canonical correlation analysis (CCA). In the proposed method, two novel approaches are introduced into the retrieval scheme of video materials on the Web. First, the CCA is applied to three kinds of video features, visual and audio features of video materials and textual features obtained from Web pages containing those video materials...
Web-based digital libraries have sped up the process that scholars use to find new, important research papers. Unfortunately, current digital libraries are limited by their inadequate webpage-based paradigm, and it is easy for even the most experienced scholar to get lost. A paper and its immediate references are shown on a webpage, but it is not obvious where that paper belongs in the larger context...
The problems of cognitive overload have greatly influenced students' learning in multimedia and Web-based environment. The main technological factors of cognitive overload are analyzed as following: hypertext structure of information and multi-task, disturbance of unnecessary information, interaction of auditory and visual information. Cognitive theory of multimedia learning provides the theoretical...
This paper will present some existing and on-line accessible Web-based educational systems, and the adaptation theory which is integrated in those systems.
Advances in Internet connections speeds and computer hardware means that web content has grown richer and more interactive for users. One such area is Web3D which has seen the emergence of ISO standard technologies such as VRML (Virtual Reality Modeling Language) and its XML-based (eXtensible Markup Language) successor X3D(eXtensible 3D). X3D, in particular, presents opportunities for further integration...
As the amount of available video content increases, so does the need for better ways of browsing all this material. Because the nature of video makes it hard to process, the need arises for adequate surrogates for video that can readily be skimmed and browsed. In this paper, the effects of the use of hierarchy in a pictorial summary of keyframes are explored, and a novel type of video surrogate is...
In countries like India, a great deal of diversity exists in language, culture and socio-economic conditions. In order to deliver computer aided education, efforts have to be put for proper management of concerned domain and learning materials keeping in mind this diversity. Participatory authoring of domain knowledge structure is of immense importance in this regard. In this paper, we describe a...
