I The validity of the stratospheric aerosol measurements made by the satellite sensors SAM II and SAGE has been tested by comparing their results with each other and with results obtained by other techniques (lidar. dustsonde. filter. impactor). The latter type of comparison has required the development of special techniques that (1) convert the quantity measured by the correlative sensor (e.g....

Ambient Intelligence or ubiquitous computing is the technology vision of the future. Ambient Intelligence will provide applications and services to users anywhere and anytime. To ensure acceptability and pleasurability, Ambient Intelligence systems should also be socially intelligent. This requires research and design sensitive to the user’s emotions. 3E is an emotion assessment method for coll...

Identifying genes underlying complex diseases/traits that generally involve multiple etiological mechanisms and contributing genes is difficult. Although microarray technology has enabled researchers to investigate gene expression changes, but identifying pathobiologically relevant genes remains a challenge. To address this challenge, we apply a new method for selecting the disease-relevant gen...

The DØ experiment is facing many exciting challenges providing a computing environment for its worldwide collaboration. Transparent access to data for processing and analysis has been enabled through deployment of its SAM system to collaborating sites and additional functionality will be provided soon with SAMGrid components. In order to maximize access to global storage, computational and inte...
