MeMaPads: Enhancing children's well-being through a physically interactive memory and math games
(
IEEE
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
Obesity has recently become an epidemic that endangers the well-being of all the modern societies, especially the young generations. The lack of physical activity is considered as one major reason that contributes to such ...
Using fringes for minimal conceptual decomposition of binary contexts
(
World Scientific Publishing Co. Pte Ltd
, 2012 , Article)
Extracting knowledge from huge data in a reasonable time is still a challenging problem. Most real data (structured or not) can be mapped to an equivalent binary context, with or without using a scaling method, as for ...
An Arabic-based tutorial system for children with special needs
(
Springer
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
In spite of the current advance of the use of computers in education in the Arab world, complete suites of solutions for students with special needs are very scarce. This paper presents an assistive system managing learning ...
Understanding Simple Stories through Concepts Extraction and Multimedia Elements
(
Springer
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
Teaching children with intellectual disabilities is a challenging task. Instructors use different methodologies and techniques to introduce the concepts of lessons to the children, motivate them and keep them engaged. These ...
RFID-based interactive multimedia system for the children
(
Springer
, 2012 , Article)
In this paper, we present an interactive edutainment system for the children that leverages multimedia and RFID technologies in a seamless manner. The proposed system allows children to learn about new objects/entities by ...
Scalar dissipation rate statistics in turbulent flows using Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence measurements
(
Elsevier
, 2012 , Article)
A shearless mixing layer with isotropic decaying turbulence has been examined with a turbulent axisymmetric opposed-jet flow and a plume in pipe flow. The study has been carried out experimentally with Planar Laser Induced ...
Disruption factor of asphalt mixtures
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2012 , Article)
Typically, aggregate gradation is selected to meet Superpave mix design specification; however, many Superpave mixtures have exhibited deficient field performance. The porosity of the dominant aggregate size range (DASR), ...
Constraint-enhanced role engineering via answer set programming
(
Association for Computing Machinery
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
Role engineering (RE) aims to develop and maintain appropriate role-based access control (RBAC) configurations. However, RE with constraints in place is not well-studied. Constraints usually describe organizations' security ...
Compliance checking for usage-constrained credentials in trust negotiation systems
(
Springer Berlin Heidelberg
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
We propose an approach to placing usage-constraints on RT credentials; issuers specify constraints by designing non-deterministic finite automata. We show by examples that this approach can express constraints of practical ...
Tracking and constraining authorization provenance
(
Springer Berlin Heidelberg
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
Authorization provenance concerns how an authorization is derived. It appears important to define authorization provenance to (1) analyze policy bases, (2) defend against a class of attacks, and (3) audit authorizations. ...
