HYBRID NETWORKS WITH A SPACE SEGMENT - TOPOLOGY DESIGN AND SECURITY ISSUES
(2005)
In this paper we investigate a hybrid network topology that is suitable for supporting interplanetary communications. We define an architecture comprised of a network of sensor nodes on a remote planetary surface, connected ...
Why Not Make Interfaces Better than 3D Reality? (2004)
(2005)
Some designers dream about building interfaces that approach the richness of 3D reality. They believe that the closer an interface resembles the real world, the easier the usage. They strive for resolution that matches ...
Meaningful Presentations of Photo Libraries: Rationale and Applications of Bi-Level Radial Quantum Layouts (2005)
(2005)
Searching photo libraries can be made more satisfying and successful if search results are presented in a way that allows users to gain an overview of the photo categories. Since photo layouts on computer displays are the ...
Universal Usability Statements: Marking the Trail for All Users (2001)
(2005)
Signposts at ski areas help skiers to choose slopes that match their skills and equipment. They describe easy, intermediate and expert trails, indicate which ones are groomed, and give their length or vertical drop. Skiers ...
A Rank-by-Feature Framework for Unsupervised Multidimensional Data Exploration Using Low Dimensional Projections (2004)
(2005)
Exploratory analysis of multidimensional data sets is challenging because of the difficulty in comprehending more than three dimensions. Two fundamental statistical principles for the exploratory analysis are (1) to examine ...
Dynamic Layout Management in a Multimedia Bulletin Board (2002)
(2005)
This paper proposes a novel user interface to manage the dynamic layout of multimedia objects in the Multimedia Bulletin Board (MBB) system. The MBB has been designed and implemented as a prototype of an asynchronous ...
Dynamic query tools for time series data sets: Timebox widgets for interactive exploration (2004)
(2005)
Timeboxes are rectangular widgets that can be used in direct-manipulation graphical user interfaces (GUIs) to specify query constraints on time series data sets. Timeboxes are used to specify simultaneously two sets of ...
Making Computer and Internet Usability a Priority (2000)
(2005)
As usability professionals, we are all too aware of the productivity losses, frustration, and lost business that results from poorly designed user interfaces. And we are uncomfortable with the risks created by poorly ...
Fault-Tolerant Extension of Hypercube Algorithm for Efficient, Robust Group Communications in MANETs
(2005)
Securing multicast communications in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) has become one of the most challenging research directions in the areas of wireless networking and security. MANETs are emerging as the desired environment ...
Development of an Engine Idle Speed and Emission Controller
(2005)
This paper is focused on idling. An engine model is developed. The engine model includes an airflow dynamics model, a combustion model, a fuel injection model, and a catalytic converter model. These models will be used to ...
