In this position paper we discuss a set of problems particular to computing within limits that draws on psychological and sociological barriers. The enormity of the predicaments we are facing, global climate change and resource scarcity, together with the social, cultural and national settings in which we are facing these predicaments, are seriously hampering our possibility to address them. We...

AI performs many tasks, including - creating and working in symbolic computing systems, systems with fuzzy logic, cognitive psychology, understanding natural language, expert computer linguistics, automation of various vocabulary lexical cards, behavior planning (search proposal the most optimal way to achieve goal, based on this situation), machine translation, creation management intelligent ...

one of the main features of high throughput computing systems is the availability of high power processing resources. cloud computing systems can offer these features through concepts like pay-per-use and quality of service (qos) over the internet. many applications in cloud computing are represented by workflows. quality of service is one of the most important challenges in the context of sche...

Affective computing has been an extremely active research and development area for some years now, with some of the early results already starting to be integrated in human-computer interaction systems. Driven mainly by research initiatives in Europe, USA and Japan and accelerated by the abundance of processing power and low-cost, unintrusive sensors like cameras and microphones, affective comp...

Affective computing is currently one of the most active research topics, furthermore, having increasingly intensive attention. This strong interest is driven by a wide spectrum of promising applications in many areas such as virtual reality, smart surveillance, perceptual interface, etc. Affective computing concerns multidisciplinary knowledge background such as psychology, cognitive, physiolog...

As intelligent technology steadily becomes a part of modern societies, people collaborate with agents more frequently, and so agents need to be socially intelligent, i.e. personalised and context-sensitive. This paper introduces a context-sensitive personalisation framework for social agents that facilitates the establishment of human-agent relationships by sharing past experiences through pers...

What is the best way of building user-friendly computing systems? This is undoubtedly a naive question but its importance will be recognized by any user of ~resent~day systems. Specialists in this field of research give vanous names to it: the ergonomics of computing systems, the study of human factors, software psy~hology, hu:r:an engineering, user psychology, user SCience, cognItive engineeri...
