Accuracy, Target Reentry and Fitts' Law Performance of Preschool Children Using Mice
(2003-06-04)Several experiments by psychologists and human factors researchers have shown that when young children execute pointing tasks, they perform at levels below older children and adults. However, these experiments were ... -
Accurate Anchor-Free Node Localization in Wireless Sensor Networks
(2006-02-10)There has been a growing interest in the applications of wireless sensor networks in unattended environments. In such applications, sensor nodes are usually deployed randomly in an area of interest. Knowledge of accurate ... -
Accurate computation of Galerkin double surface integrals in the 3-D boundary element method
(2015-05-29)Many boundary element integral equation kernels are based on the Green’s functions of the Laplace and Helmholtz equations in three dimensions. These include, for example, the Laplace, Helmholtz, elasticity, Stokes, and ... -
An Accurate Time-Management Unit for Real-Time Processors
(1998-10-15)Time management is an important aspect of real-time computation. Traditional high performance processors provide little or no support for management of time. In this report, we propose a time-management unit which can ... -
Active Harmony: Towards Automated Performance Tuning
(2002-08-01)In this paper we present the Active Harmony automated runtime tuning system. We describe the interface used by programs to make applications tunable. We present the Library Specification Layer which helps program library ... -
Active Logic and Heim's Rules for Updating Discourse Context
(1998-10-15)Discourse unfolds in time, giving rise to a cascade of belief changes in the listener. Yet this temporal evolution of discourse and belief is typically ignored in theoretical treatments of discourse. It has been claimed ... -
Active Logic Applied to Cancellation of Gricean Implicture
(1998-10-15)Dialog proceeds over time, during which inferred beliefs come and go in the listener. Yet this temporal aspect of dialog and belief is typically ignored in theoretical treatments of dialog. Using a simple example of a ... -
Active Logics: A Unified Formal Approach to Episodic Reasoning
(1999-10-14)Artificial intelligence research falls roughly into two categories: formal and implementational. This division is not completely firm: there are implementational studies based on (formal or informal) theories (e.g., CYC, ... -
Active Proxy-G: Optimizing the Query Execution Process in the Grid
(2002-05-22)The Grid environment facilitates collaborative work and allows many users to query and process data over geographically dispersed data repositories. Over the past several years, there has been a growing interest in ... -
AD (Attacker Defender) Game
(2002-01-31)Information Dynamics is a framework for agent-based systems that gives a central position to the role of information, time, and the value of information. We illustrate system design in the Information Dynamics Framework ... -
