This paper proposes a web map system for drawing an arbitrary travel route using a mouse-sensitive following path suggestion. The interaction model of the system allows users to intuitively understand the sequence of user actions needed to draw a conceived route and reduces the number of user actions required. Moreover, the system allows users to understand at a glance several drawing alternati...

abstractthe purpose of this study was to assess organizational and personnel structure in iranian agriculture extension system (iaes). the research instrument was a structural questionnaire including close-ended questions which its validity and reliability was confirmed by using expert panel and cranach’s alpha test, respectively. the statistical population of this research included all public ...

background: in addition of the socio-economics costs, trauma is the 4th cause of death at all age groups, in 2000, trauma was caused more than 6 million deaths in the world. despite promising trend in improving many aspects of health care and treatment in the last decade in our country, little attention has been paid to the subject of registering trauma on an international standard. effective p...

In this work we describe a system to evaluate multiple pointof-interest recommendation systems. In this system each recommendation service will be exposed online and crowdsourced assessors will interact with merged results from multiple services, which are responding to suggestion requests live, in order to determine which system performs best. This work builds upon work done previously as part...

Traditional suggestion systems, despite their shortcomings, have been used to promote creativity in industry for over a century. Independently, brainstorming has also been applied for almost fifty years as a method to increase idea generation. However, the two have never met. In this argumentative paper, it is theorised that by adding computer support and applying lessons from the realm of elec...

Understanding search behavior is important and leads to more effective interfaces that support searchers throughout the search process. In this article, through an observational user study, we investigate the search behavior of 15 visually impaired and 15 sighted searchers while they complete complex search tasks online. We study complex search tasks because they are challenging, cognitively in...

in recent years, underactuated nonlinear dynamic systems trajectory tracking, such as space robots and manipulators with structural flexibility, has become a major field of interest due to the complexity and high computational load of these systems. hierarchical sliding mode control has been investigated recently for these systems; however, the instability phenomena will possibly occur, especia...
