In the last decade, integrated logistics has become an important challenge in the development of wireless communication, identification and sensing technology, due to the growing complexity of logistics processes and the increasing demand…
Situated Visualization is an emerging field that unites several areas - visualization, augmented reality, human-computer interaction, and internet-of-things, to support human data activities within the ubiquitous world. Likewise, dashboards…
We consider a number of fundamental statistical and graph problems in the message-passing model, where we have $k$ machines (sites), each holding a piece of data, and the machines want to jointly solve a problem defined on the union of the…
We revisit the discrete heterogeneous two-facility location problem, in which there is a set of agents that occupy nodes of a line graph, and have private approval preferences over two facilities. When the facilities are located at some…
The widespread adoption of continuously connected smartphones and tablets developed the usage of mobile applications, among which many use location to provide geolocated services. These services provide new prospects for users: getting…
This paper presents a scalable Bayesian technique for decentralized state estimation from multiple platforms in dynamic environments. As has long been recognized, centralized architectures impose severe scaling limitations for distributed…
The aim of this thesis was the design and development of an interactive system enhancing collaborative sensemaking. The system design was based on related work research and preliminary user study. The system is based on multiple…
A key issue in the control of distributed discrete systems modeled as Markov decisions processes, is that often the state of the system is not directly observable at any single location in the system. The participants in the control scheme…
Deploying relays and/or mobile base stations is a major means of extending the coverage of a wireless network. This paper presents models, analytical results, and algorithms to answer two related questions: The first is where to deploy…
Traditional wall-sized displays mostly only support side-by-side co-located collaboration, while transparent displays naturally support face-to-face interaction. Many previous works assume transparent displays support collaboration. Yet it…
Developing intelligent systems requires combining results from both industry and academia. In this report you find an overview of relevant research fields and industrially applicable technologies for building very large scale cyber physical…
Cooperative driving at isolated intersections attracted great interest and had been well discussed in recent years. However, cooperative driving in multi-intersection road networks remains to be further investigated, because many algorithms…
Recent developments in the industry of personal computing led to a greater number of the so-called edge devices. Such devices typically do not collaborate or foresee the possibility of collaboration to offer aggregated storage and computing…
This paper presents a formal approach to modelling and analysis of data and control flow dependencies between services within remotely deployed distributed systems of services. Our work aims at elaborating for a concrete system, which parts…
Performance and reliability of content access in mobile networks is conditioned by the number and location of content replicas deployed at the network nodes. Location theory has been the traditional, centralized approach to study content…
Digital identities are increasingly important for mediating not only digital but also physical service transactions. Managing such identities through centralized providers can cause both availability and privacy concerns: single points of…
With geographic message dissemination, connected vehicles can be served with traffic information in their proximity, thereby positively impacting road safety, traffic management, or routing. Since such messages are typically relevant in a…
Backscatter system is a system based on backscatter communication technology, which is a low cost, low power consumption and easy to deploy communication technology. At present, the backscatter technology is mainly applied to RFID tags and…
We present a systematic review on three comparative layouts (i.e., juxtaposition, superposition, and explicit-encoding) which are information visualization (InfoVis) layouts designed to support comparison tasks. For the last decade, these…
This article describes a model and an exact solution method for facility location problems with decision-dependent uncertainties. The model allows characterizing the probability distribution of the random elements as a function of the…
