Abstract I distinguish between two concepts of effort, E-effort and T-effort. is the familiar one, which focuses on experiential qualities making an effort (such energy time we put into making, or hardship endure). Teleological (or T-effort) motivated active focus intended purpose goal ; aim to do what it takes reach target effort. When make a T-effort concentrate best way getting where want be...

Software verification is an established method to ensure software safety. Nevertheless, verification still often fails, either because it consumes too much resources, e.g., time or memory, or the technique is not mature enough to verify the property. Often then discarding the partial verification, the validation process proceeds with techniques like testing. To enable standard testing to profit...

New wireless sensor network applications (e.g., military surveillance) require higher reliability than a simple best effort service could provide. Classical reliable transport protocols like Transmission Control Protocol (TCP) are not well suited for wireless sensor networks due to both the characteristics of the network nodes (low computing power, strong energy constraints) and those of the ma...

In this study, secondary school teachers’ acceptance of a digital learning environment (DLE) was investigated. Questionnaires were taken on three times (T1/T2/T3) during the same school year, with the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) as theoretical framework. Next to questionnaires, user-logs were collected during the entire school year. A total of 72 teachers complete...
