The talk deals with a new paradigm for multimedia search based on content. We present an alternative approach to classical search engines for information retrieval which can be used for large and generic multimedia repositories. We introduce an incremental evolution scheme within a collective network of (evolutionary) binary classifier (CNBC) framework. The proposed framework addresses the problems...
Knowledge, Skills, Ability (KSA) is a model necessary for the successful performance of any individual in a given job. It is usually used to assess the capabilities of a prospective applicant. In this paper, we report our experience with senior undergraduate students in an IT seminar course to conduct research and write publishable papers. We will also show how KSA has been applied to the course learning...
The wide application of information technology in the education accelerates the development process of the informatization of college physical education, and presents more challenges to it. This essay surveys the current situation of informatization in college physical education, and suggests some of the ways to reforce and deepen the process.
The rapid development of technology has enable people in developing countries to catch up with the rest of the world, as technologies are becoming more affordable and accessible.

Abstracts in technical writing are a genre that functions more than a mere summary situated at the beginning of academic report writing. They are considered a very important site that promotes and draws the readers' attention to read on or to disregard the paper. Often, writers tend to use evaluative language in abstracts to convey their stance in disciplinary knowledge making and to convince the...
Certain subclasses of analytic univalent functions associated with quasi-subordination are defined and parameter estimation for functions belonging to these subclasses are derived.
Based on field investigation and research, this paper analyzes the primary and middle school information technology teachers' professional application status and existing problems in the agricultural and pastoral areas in Qinghai province. Also, it presents some feasible reform measures and suggestions for the current teaching mode.
A combination of new teaching methods, tools together with cloud services promises to deliver greater efficiency to higher education with improved teaching outcomes.

E-banking services vitally need comprehensive secure and simple authentication methods in order to be universally spread. In this paper, a new method of authentication was proposed and tested. This method uses templates in addition to passwords which are received in registration process. Template provides benefits of one-time passwords in practice, and can thwart common attacks of the context. Template...
The worldwide revolution of information technology triggers numerous computing in creative ways that changes and improves human life dramatically, e.g., Google search engine, Facebook. Although the term, “Creative Computing” is used and practiced widely, there is still no well accepted and ‘scientific’ definition for Creative Computing. We report our attempt to develop the definition, research scope...
The use of computers in modern life is almost unavoidable since computers are used in business and private life. Most users today use proprietary software, but with the arrival of the financial crisis forced savings raised the question of whether free Open Source technologies provide a good replacement for proprietary software. This paper presents the results of research about students' attitudes...
In this article we present the results of a pilot programme for student placement on the university, comprised of a preparation course, the GCE Ordinary level test in Computing, which students perform afterwards as a placement test, and a post-course questionnaire. The aim of the research programme is to identify weaknesses in the student placement tests and set the road map for improved first-time...
While computer science is firmly established in higher education, introducing and maintaining CS as a regular K-12 subject remains a major challenge. From a pedagogical perspective, this requires adapting the curriculum to students at widely varying levels of cognitive development and training teachers to enable both knowledge construction and competency development.

One way to address this problem is to remove misconceptions held by the nation's youth about computing, including information about how it positively impacts many subjects and showing them that applying computing can be fun and rewarding. One program at...
Secondary school students tend to learn more about the usage of computers than the technology behind. It is a challenging task to raise a basic understanding, motivation, and interest in computer science and IT. The project doIT tries to fulfill this task by presenting experimental games which abstract common computer principles. The goal should be that students are led from the conceptual experiment...
The purpose of this paper is to solve the current translation teaching problems, and to provide a new kind of computer-aided translation teaching mode.
