Location matters: Why target location impacts performance in orientation tasks

Location matters: why target location impacts performance in orientation tasks.

This research explores human performance in a spatial orientation task. In three experiments, participants saw a target highlighted in a visual scene and were asked to locate it on a map of the space. Across all of the experiments, the target's location in the visual scene influenced the participants' response times. Generally, response times increased when the target was located farther away f...

Modelling Space for Location-Dependent Tasks: Why Location-Independent Computing Isn’t

The growth in mobile and distributed computing have highlighted a category of task in which the location of the user and/or resources or other task agents affects the way the task is performed. We identify important features of such tasks and propose requirements for a spatial framework to model location information for task support.

چکیده رساله/پایان نامه : تاکنون روش‏های متعددی در ارتباط با مکان یابی خطا در شبکه انتقال ارائه شده است. استفاده مستقیم از این روش‏ها در شبکه توزیع به دلایلی همچون وجود انشعاب‏های متعدد، غیر یکنواختی فیدرها (خطوط کابلی، خطوط هوایی، سطح مقطع متفاوت انشعاب ها و تنه اصلی فیدر)، نامتعادلی (عدم جابجا شدگی خطوط، بارهای تک‏فاز و سه فاز)، ثابت نبودن بار و اندازه گیری مقادیر ولتاژ و جریان فقط در ابتدای...

Colonic acetate in obesity: location matters!

Gut micro-organisms are recognized as crucial regulators of host immunity and the microbiota has been implicated in several inflammatory, immune, inflammatory or even psychiatric disorders. Therefore the analysis of the complex interactions between gut microbiota and the host is currently under intense investigation. Most of our knowledge stems from the study of animal models while translationa...
