—This article describes the design of the two application scenarios of the Virtual Human project and its integration into the Virtual Human system. This includes overall concepts and considerations of the demonstrators for the two application scenarios (learning, edutainment) as well as underlying methodic-didactic aspects for knowledge transmission and narrative concepts for story structure an...

Cloud computing becomes more and more adaptive technology for the current computing world. In the cloud environment to provide infrastructure resources to the end customer they are using virtualization technology. Virtualization is built on a software module called hypervisors. By implementing virtualization in the cloud the same resources are shared among different end customers. This may lead...

The Virtual Company educational scenario engages students in a professional setting for working and learning. Students are enabled to develop competencies that are derived from professional practice. This allows us to use assessment strategies that are different from the practice in traditional educational settings. In the Virtual Company educational scenario the competence assessment procedure...

As virtualization continues to become increasingly popular in enterprise and organizational networks, operators and administrators are turning to live migration of virtual machines for the purpose of workload balancing and management. However, the security of live virtual machine migration has yet to be analyzed. This paper looks at this poorly explored area and attempts to empirically demonstr...

Virtual prototyping is always used to validate a design by simulating the behavior of mechanical products. As concerning problems of the current researches on product integrated information modeling technology, this paper presents a new systematic integrated information modeling technology based on virtual prototyping. After the 800t jacking system of an offshore platform is introduced, the des...

We prove spectral optical identities in quantum field theories of physical particles (defined by the Feynman $i\epsilon $ prescription) and purely virtual fakeon prescription). The are derived means algebraic operations hold for every (multi)threshold separately arbitrary frequencies. Their major significance is that they offer a deeper understanding on problem unitarity theory. In particular, ...

Deep subspace clustering networks have attracted much attention in clustering, which an auto-encoder non-linearly maps the input data into a latent space, and fully connected layer named self-expressiveness module is introduced to learn affinity matrix via typical regularization term (e.g., sparse or low-rank). However, adopted terms ignore connectivity within each subspace, limiting their perf...

‎A universal schema for diagonalization was popularized by N.S‎. ‎Yanofsky (2003)‎, ‎based on a pioneering work of F.W‎. ‎Lawvere (1969)‎, ‎in which the existence of a (diagonolized-out and contradictory) object implies the existence of a fixed-point for a certain function‎. ‎It was shown that many self-referential paradoxes and diagonally proved theorems can fit in that schema‎. ‎Here‎, ‎we fi...

This paper proposes a real-time mesh animation framework to animate any kind of virtual characters by using Kinect. A deformation module is first predefined by constructing propagation fields and accordingly the isolines in each field for a character. During animation, motions captured by Kinect are retargeted to movements of users’ specified handle constraints, which induce the deformation mod...
