Fast Downward Aidos

This paper describes the three Fast Downward Aidos portfolios we submitted to the Unsolvability International Planning Competition 2016. All three Aidos variants are implemented in the Fast Downward planning system (Helmert 2006). We use a pool of techniques as a basis for our portfolios, including various techniques already implemented Fast Downward, as well as three newly developed techniques...

NOSTOS: a spherical TPC to detect low energy neutrinos

A novel low-energy (∼few keV) neutrino-oscillation experiment NOSTOS, combining a strong tritium source and a high pressure spherical Time Projection Chamber (TPC) detector 10 m in radius has been recently proposed. The oscillation of neutrinos of such energies occurs within the size of the detector itself, potentially allowing for a very precise (and rather systematics-free) measure of the osc...

Putting Order to Episodic and Semantic Learning Memories: The Case for KLeOS

KLeOS is a Knowledge and Learning Organisation System which reflects the hierarchical organisation of learning into activities, episodes and projects (Tough, 1971; Vavoula & Sharples, 2002), and allows the user to organize and manage their learning experiences and resources as a visual timeline, while at the same time visualising their episodic learning memories. The prototype demonstrates func...

NOSTOS: A Paper-Based Ubiquitous Computing Healthcare Environment to Support Data Capture and Collaboration

In this paper, we present a new approach to clinical workplace computerization that departs from the window-based user interface paradigm. NOSTOS is an experimental computer-augmented work environment designed to support data capture and teamwork in an emergency room. NOSTOS combines multiple technologies, such as digital pens, walk-up displays, headsets, a smart desk, and sensors to enhance an...
