To this date, all methodologies for detecting plagiarism have focused on investigating the final digital “outcome”, eg. a document or source code. Our novel approach takes the creation process into account using logged events. We look at interaction logs of an author with the software used for creation of the work. Detection relies on comparing histograms of command usages of multiple logs. A w...

The creation of an electronic version of the Patient Care Report (ePCR) during the ambulance run remains a challenge for the pre-hospital environment. Current ePCR systems follow a “one-size-fits-all” approach. In this context, system components such as user interfaces and business models are developed without taking into account the specifics for different categories of patients or information...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the role of theta activity in cognitive mapping, and to determine whether age-associated decreased theta power may account for navigational difficulties in elderly individuals. Cerebral activity was recorded using electroencephalograph in young and older individuals performing a spatial memory task that required the creation of cognitive maps. Power ...

2014 The midgap donor level EL2 is a very important defect because of the role it plays in the compensation of undoped semi-insulating GaAs. The knowledge of the exact EL2 structure becomes of even greater prime importance. We present here a review of the experimental results concerning artificial EL2 creation by electron and neutron irradiation and also ion implantation followed or not by anne...

The number of artists who express themselves through music in an unconventional way is constantly growing. This trend strongly depends on the high diffusion of laptops, which proved to be powerful and flexible musical devices. However laptops still lack in flexible interface, specifically designed for music creation in live and studio performances. To resolve this issue many controllers have be...

The purpose of this research paper is to show that the environmental variable influences companies’ value creation processes. The goal of any strategy is to achieve sustained superior performance, and this depends on the industry’s attractiveness and the choice of business positioning. In turn, the success of any given positioning depends on the sustainability of the competitive advantages on w...

The main problems of a conversational Russian speech recognition system development are variability of pronunciation, free word-order in sentences and presence of speech disfluencies. In the paper, pronunciation variability is modeled by creation of multiple word transcriptions. A syntacticstatistical language model that takes into account long-distant word dependencies is proposed for Russian ...

There is a well-developed view of artifacts according to which their nature depends on the intentions of their authors or creators. However, in the modern world of artifact design and creation, typically not one but many agents are involved in the process of making an artifact. In this paper, I showhow the intentional view can bemaintained even for ‘collective’ artifacts havingmultiple authors....

Dynamic models such as Bayesian Networks are of late becoming increasingly popular among the Software Engineering research community. Such models take into account the causal relationship between the variables of a domain, and therefore may provide better solutions to many of the problems in this area. This paper concerns the use of Bayesian Belief Networks (BBNs) in project management. Creatio...

In this paper we discuss the use of established, design methodologies and conventions to inform digital content creation relating to the capture and communication of people’s sensory perceptions of ‘textile hand’*. We explore the advantages of such methodologies in relation to the creation of interactive digital textile swatches (known as Shoogles, created using the interactive media tool Shoog...
