Any inexperienced designer may not take advantage of design patterns due to their high level of abstraction, on the one hand, and their overwhelming number, on the other hand. In this paper, we propose a new approach that first retrieves and recommends a design pattern that is adequate to a designer's modeling context, it then helps them in its instantiation. Our approach learns past pattern re...

This paper addresses interactive function-based shape modelling. Interactive modification of the function model with concurrent visualization of the respective polygonal mesh lets us provide both the interactivity and any required level of detail leading to photo-realistic appearance of the resulting shapes. We have proposed an interactive visualisation method capable of handling local shape mo...

8 In this paper, we present a new generic method for an interactive interpreta9 tion of sketches to avoid a fastidious verification phase. After a preprocess10 ing phase in which we extract a set of primitives, the interpretation process 11 consists of an interactive analysis. The analyzer is based on a competitive 12 breadth-first exploration of the analysis tree. As opposed to well known 13 s...

Interactive multiobjective optimization methods have provided promising results in the literature but still their implementations are rare. Here we introduce a core structure of interactive methods to enable their convenient implementation. We also demonstrate how this core structure can be applied when implementing an interactive method using a modeling environment. Many modeling environments ...

A non-interactive (t,n)-publicly veriable secret sharing scheme (non-interactive (t,n)-PVSS scheme) is a (t,n)-secret sharing scheme in which anyone, not only the participants of the scheme, can verify the correctness of the produced shares without interacting with the dealer and participants. The (t,n)-PVSS schemes have found a lot of applications in cryptography because they are suitable for<...

Usability evaluation methods are a battery of techniques for assessing the usability of interactive systems or of proposed interactive systems. This paper describes an additional evaluation method, most appropriate for evaluating safety critical and high quality user interfaces. The method can also be used for informing HCI research. The method is applied when a specification is available of th...
