Emerging applications such as large-scale distributed data processing, machine learning, and Internet of Things, are fueled by the computational resources provided by large scale distributed computing platforms. Cloud computing has emerged as a popular platform to run these emerging workloads. While early cloud platforms were used to mainly run web workloads, today it has become commonplace to ...

This article introduces user experience research that has been carried out by evaluating a video-illustrated science fiction prototype with process control workers. Essentially, the prototype ‘A remote operator’s day in a future control center in 2025’ was aimed at discovering opportunities for new interaction methods and ambient intelligence for the factories of the future. The theoretical obj...

Whether engineering designers aim to be creative or simply to meet the design requirements their design processes often produce creative solutions. We view creativity in engineering design as a title given after the design product is evaluated in the context of its requirements and historical setting. The potential for creative design is increased as more of a solution space can be explored and...

This paper proposes a model for co-creation of games as alternative media. The model uses actual play practices to understand the political and cultural influence co-creation might have in the relationship between the owner of the game and the players. The model requires for player creation of a text or communication infrastructure that changes the properties of the game from which play emerges...

Computational mechanism design (CMD) seeks to understand how to design game forms that induce desirable outcomes in multiagent systems despite private information, self-interest and limited computational resources. CMD finds application in many settings, in the public sector for wireless spectrum and airport landing rights, to Internet advertising, to expressive sourcing in the supply chain, to...
