Speakers who metaphorize together – argue together

Measuring synchronization among speakers reading together

It has been demonstrated that speakers are readily able to synchronize with a cospeaker when reading a prepared text together. The means by which a high degree of synchronization is attained are still unknown. We here present a novel measure of synchrony which allows us to follow the time course of synchronization among two speakers, based on the parallel acoustic signals. The method uses tradi...

Who Works Together in Agent Coalition Formation?

Coalitions are often required for multi-agent collaboration. In this research, we consider tasks that can only be completed with the combined efforts of multiple agents using approaches which are both cooperative and competitive. Often agents forming coalitions determine optimal coalitions by looking at all possibilities. This requires an exponential algorithm and is not feasible when the numbe...

Putting together What Fits together - GrÆStl

We present GrÆStl, a combined hardware architecture for the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) and Grøstl, one of the final round candidates of the SHA-3 hash competition. GrÆStl has been designed for low-resource devices implementing AES-128 (encryption and decryption) as well as Grøstl-256 (tweaked version). We applied several resource-sharing optimizations and based our design on an 8/16-bit...
