With the rapid development of multimedia signal processing and digital communication technology, a number information security issues have also emerged correspondingly, such as content tampering...

Alongside the rapid development of AI technology, which is stepping in to do tasks more quickly and less prone error than humans can, possibility for MI (multiple intelligence) warrants equal attention fervor. Recent theories human intelligence point beyond standard cognitive capacity, IQ, shine a light on other unique potentials naturally endowed humans. The applicability aviation discussed, s...

Paying attention to media requires continuously selecting and processing relevant information while filtering out numerous competing stimuli. Although the factors that drive toward or away from a single task are relatively well characterized, there is lack of understanding regarding how functions in presence multiple, concurrent tasks. In this manuscript, we report findings four experiments inv...

This study aims at evaluating the coursebooks taught at the intermediate level of adult and young adult departments of the Iran Language Institute in terms of multiple intelligence types introduced by Gardner (1983) to see to what extent such coursebooks represent the Multiple Intelligence Theory. To fulfill the objectives, a checklist developed by Botelho (2003) and localized by the researcher...

The impact of user interface quality has grown in software systems engineering, and will grow further with upcoming new paradigms such as Ambient Intelligence or Ubiquitous Computing, which confront the production industry with a huge diversity of new usage situations. In this paper, we will show the adaptation of a task-oriented useware modeling language, which is employed in the model-based u...

Data Warehouses store integrated and consistent data in a subject-oriented data repository dedicated especially to support business intelligence processes. However, keeping these repositories updated usually involves complex and time-consuming processes, commonly denominated as Extract-Transform-Load tasks. These data intensive tasks normally execute in a limited time window and their computati...

Schizophrenia-spectrum risk alleles may persist in the population, despite their reproductive costs in individuals with schizophrenia, through the possible creativity benefits of mild schizotypy in non-psychotic relatives. To assess this creativity-benefit model, we measured creativity (using 6 verbal and 8 drawing tasks), schizotypy, Big Five personality traits, and general intelligence in 225...

Since various communities with multiple languages interact in daily life, tools are needed to support intercultural communication. However, we often observe that the success of a multi-language tool in one situation does not guarantee its success in another. To develop multi-language environments that can handle various situations in various communities, existing language resources should be ea...

The impact of user interface quality has grown in software systems engineering, and will grow further with upcoming new paradigms such as Ambient Intelligence (AmI) or Ubiquitous Computing, which confront the production industry with a huge diversity of new usage situations. User in such situations cannot cope with the vast amount of information. Therefore, new models with respect to users’ nee...
