This study implements a virtual laboratory for half bridge, full bridge and three phase voltage source inverters (VSI). Users can connected to the system from any computer having internet connection and perform any experiment by using designed user interface. Simulation models have been constructed with MatLAB/Simulink software while user interfaces have been arranged with LabVIEW software. The connection...
Research indicates that the integration of computer technology in schools has increased significantly as educators see the benefits of learning with technology for widening students' skills in reasoning and problem solving. And, with the continuous integration of social networks and mobile devices (smartphone, tablet) into daily life, the classroom environment can benefit from an enriched curriculum...
The ongoing advances in mobile application programming interfaces and frameworks make it easier to develop this type of applications. However, the design of mobile user interfaces and prototypes that enable advanced interaction styles still requires improvement. In this paper, we describe an approach for rapid prototyping of mobile applications. Here, we fall back on reusing existing tools and applications.
Developing a remote laboratory is a well-described process in literature. Many examples allow the scientific community to understand the design problems faced and the solutions implemented during their development. These examples also reveal that the development process usually follows one of two approaches: a professional one or an academic one. This paper compares the two approaches used in the...
Computer-Aided Engineering (CAE) systems demand a vast amount of computing resources to simulate modern hi-tech products. In this paper, we consider the problem-oriented approach to access remote distributed supercomputer resources using the concept of distributed virtual test bed (DiVTB). DiVTB provides a problem-oriented user interface to distributed computing resources within the grid, online launch...
Low-fidelity prototyping has been increasingly adopted in software development to facilitate the communication between the developer and the end-user, since it can be simply realised without the need for programming. However, this technique is not mature enough as it lacks a systematic approach to build prototypes and capture user feedback. In this paper, we present a method that provides a systematic...
The rapid release model of software introduces frequent updates to the existing software every twelve-eighteen weeks, forcing a user to get accustomed to its new features. We propose an experimental study to compare the learning gaps that are introduced when a user is exposed to a new version of a software, with which he is previously acquainted. In order to explore the problem, we propose four models...
Pen-based e-form is a style of office software in the era of Post-WIMP interface. It is complicate and difficult to utilize the existing development tool to implement pen-based user interface, so that pen-based e-form only can be designed and implemented by the professional developers, which make it is difficult for the pen-based e-form software to adapt to the changing user requirements. Given the...
IRMIS: The care and feeding of a generalized relatively relational database for accelerator components with a connection to the real time EPICS Input output controllers. This paper describes a relational database approach to documenting and maintaining; the feeding. It describes the automated process used to generate accelerator or synchrotron component data for the relational tables and the role...
Use cases are effectives ways to model the interaction between user and computer system, which covers not only how the user will interact with the system but how the system will respond to the user. They are generated from the requirements specification and are written in natural language narratives. This paper presents a prototype to identify user interface elements from use case descriptions using...
Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) provide many features that improve learning and teaching experiences. ITS are usually interactivity-intense and content-specific. Interactivity-intense assignments are recommended for scaffolding learning, while content-specific systems can offer low flexibility regarding its possible pedagogical approaches and its uses by teachers. In order to overcome this limited...
The Liquids Reflectometer (LR) Instrument installed at the Spallation Neutron Source (SNS) enables observations of chemical kinetics, solid-state reactions, phase-transitions and chemical reactions in general [1]. The ability of the instrument to complete measurements quickly and therefore process many samples is a key capability inherent in the system design [2]. Alignment and sample environment...
The operator interface is the critical link between a test system and its operator. When a test fails, the operator must quickly process the results and decide whether to troubleshoot, rerun or halt the test based on information displayed by the software. An effective and well-designed operator interface can increase productivity, reduce testing time and operator error as well as improve adoption...
Design of web user interface (WEB UI) plays a very important role in the humanization, personality and intelligence of the developments of web application. Customization of the user interface is one of the extremely important researches of computer software technology. Relating to mutual operation in design of web user interface generally, software developers are required with the basis of good programming...
With the new architecture, test programs are standardized both in look and functionality through sharing of a common interface and data and instrument handling routines. Programming time is greatly reduced with the separation of non-test related functions and through the inherent nature of code reuse. Verification and validation time is also reduced since testing is only required on the modified components...
A possible way to obtain easily new applications is to compose existing applications. In order to support developers in this way, we propose a composition approach manipulating functionalities but also the User Interfaces. We propose a model of applications inspired from Component-Based approaches, describing ports for all Elements of the applications to be composed. We define a substitution between...
Persuasion is an attempt of changing individual's behaviors and attitudes. Computer systems which incorporate with an embodied agent can be effective persuasive user interface as a social actor, and we developed and evaluated the persuasive application software which was named "iDetective" as the previous work. The main persuasive strategy of the iDetective was conversations including questions...
MIL-STD-1553 has served as the workhorse networking standard of military system integrators and aerospace avionics platforms for over 30 years. With the increasing demand for network bandwidth, high-speed-1553 is developed for some subsystems operate at hundreds of Mbps data rates with co-existing with legacy 1 Mbps systems on the same physical data buses. At any given time, there is one BC and up...
e-lab is a remote laboratory infrastructure, powered by a specific software framework, that allows to perform experiments and retrieve data from a remote apparatus. The deployment of new experiments on this platform is a complex and demanding process and an integrated overview for it is missing. An overview of e-lab's specifications is presented taking into account software development requirements...
Recent advances in depth-sensing technologies are fostering the design of Natural User Interfaces (NUI) for use in several application domains. However, due to the complexity of existing software components and to compatibility issues, the design process remains challenging. This paper presents a framework aimed at facilitating the development of natural, touch less user interfaces. The proposed framework,...
