  • The commentator information system : understanding journalists' needs to overcome cognitive load and navigation issues

    Creator:
    Midy, Marie-Anne
    Abstract:
    Nowadays, sports events are a significant part of the every-day entertainment with local, national, and international championships. A lot of money is invested by broadcasting companies to attract new and more viewers, acquire broadcasting rights, or send entire crews on site to cover such events. Journalists are among the few...

  • A data-driven model of pedestrian movement

    Creator:
    Casburn, Ledah
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents a model for simulating individual pedestrian motion based on empirical data. The model keeps track of a pedestrian’s position, orientation, and body configuration and leverages motion capture data to generate plausible motion. Our model can automatically incorporate a pedestrian’s physical limitations when making movement decisions, since it...

  • Developing a 2D Cross-section Training Strategy for 3D Volume Segmentation by Analyzing Human Perception and Cognitive Tasks

    Creator:
    Sanandaji, Anahita
    Abstract:
    3D volume segmentation is a fundamental process in many scientific and medical applications. Producing accurate segmentations, in an efficient way, is challenging, in part due to low imaging data quality (e.g., noise and low image resolution), and ambiguity in the data that can only be resolved with higher-level knowledge of...

  • Mapping Software Development Tool Design to Information Foraging Theory

    Creator:
    Nabi, Md Tahmid-un
    Abstract:
    The design of programming tools is slow and costly. To ease this process, we have developed a design pattern catalog aimed at providing guidance about how to design tools for developers. This guidance is grounded in Information Foraging Theory (IFT), which empirical studies have shown to be useful for understanding...

  • Survey of System Virtualization Techniques

    Creator:
    Rose, Robert
    Abstract:
    This paper discusses two main trends in the development of virtual machine systems: full system virtualization, where an entire hardware architecture is replicated virtually, and paravirtualization, where an operating system is modified so that it can be run concurrently with other operating systems that have also been designed for paravirtualization.

  • Helping end-user programmers find and fix performance problems in visual code

    Creator:
    Chambers, Chris
    Abstract:
    End-user programmers often struggle to create programs that run quickly and effectively, which can be a major deterrent in completing their tasks as desired. Current research has primarily focused on catching user mistakes, such as errors or misused formulas. However, end users deal with issues other than just correctness. In...
