the aim of this paper is to identify the quality factors of business to business (b2b) electronic commerce applications. having in mind the above-mentioned goal, a model will be developed in three phases. at the first stage, well-known software quality models are studied for choosing a model as the basis and using the quality factors of web applications and through referring to the quality char...

electron components have been steadily decreasing in size, while molecular materials have in recent years been found to exhibit many of the properties used in electronics. such developments are giving rise to a new field in which molecular materials are used for electronic applications. molecular electronics offers .

The use of positioning systems is an important but problematic aspect of ‘context aware’ applications. Through focusing on location-based games, we introduce the approach of self-reported positioning in which players explicitly and implicitly reveal their positions by manipulating electronic maps. A study of a game that piloted this approach demonstrates that self-reported positioning can be a ...

Motivated by applications in electronic games as well as teaching systems, we investigate the problem of dynamic difficulty adjustment. The task here is to repeatedly find a game difficulty setting that is neither ‘too easy’ and bores the player, nor ‘too difficult’ and overburdens the player. The contributions of this paper are (i) the formulation of difficulty adjustment as an online learning...
