Communication studies have pointed out various alignment and grounding phenomena (Pickering et al. 2004), (Garrod et al. 2004), (Argyle et al. 1976), (Kendon 1967), (Clark 1996). Although these phenomena are generally confirmed, there are varieties among individuals in coordinating their behaviors. This paper attempts to characterize the factors that affect the styles of non-verbal behaviors in...

This paper considers the problem of register communication in the Multiscalar architecture, a novel paradigm for exploiting instruction level parallelism. The Multiscalar architecture employs a combination of hardware and software mechanisms to partition a sequential program into tasks, and uses control and data speculation to execute such tasks in parallel. Inter-task register dependencies rep...

Communication is playing a central part of requirement determination (RD), particularly given that the many human interfaces associated with RD can lead to a variety of communication challenges, including miscommunication between users and analysts and misunderstandings between analysts and developers, all of which can add time and cost to software projects. This paper describes analysts-users ...

P w t v t u t p d i c Adverse events after hospital discharge are common and often preventable, representing a vulnerable time for patients. Hospitals are challenged to provide patients with a communication safety net postdischarge compared with ambulatory practices. Dedicated transitional care programs have tried to address this gap, focusing on specific diagnoses or selected high-risk populat...

In this paper an ant colony system (ACS) with communication strategies is developed. The artificial ants are partitioned into several groups. Seven communication methods for updating the pheromone level between groups in ACS are proposed and work on the traveling salesman problem using our system is presented. Experimental results based on three well-known traveling salesman data sets demonstra...

Microcellular and distributed antenna systems are two promising candidates for implementing personal communication systems. In this paper, antenna interconnection strategies for these systems are studied in order to determine cost-efficient as well as robust and flexible architectures in hexagonal layouts. To this end, some results from minimal networks theory are used, in particular, those dea...

This paper deals with various kinds of mental representations available for linguistic instruction in spatial humanrobot interaction. After a survey of the literature on spatial representations in humans, focussing on dialogical interaction, we present a linguistic-pragmatic method for the analysis of spatial human-robot interaction. This method allows us to gain insights concerning the discour...

This volume presents the proceedings of the symposium entitled Strategies for Risk Communication: Evolution, Evidence, Experience. The symposium was held in Montauk, Long Island, New York on May 15-17, 2006. It explored practical methods and robust theories of risk communication informed by recent research in risk perception, neuroscience, and the evolutionary social sciences. The symposium foc...

Federated Learning is a machine learning setting where the goal is to train a highquality centralized model with training data distributed over a large number of clients each with unreliable and relatively slow network connections. We consider learning algorithms for this setting where on each round, each client independently computes an update to the current model based on its local data, and ...

OBJECTIVE We investigated implicit communication strategies for anticipatory information sharing during team performance of tasks with varying degrees of complexity. We compared the strategies used by teams with the highest level of performance to those used by the lowest-performing teams to evaluate the frequency and methods of communications used as a function of task structure. BACKGROUND ...
