Distributed Computing and Artificial Intelligence
The International Symposium on Distributed Computing and Artificial Intelligence 2012 (DCAI 2012) is a stimulating and productive forum where the scientific community can work towards future cooperation in Distributed Computing and Artificial Intelligence areas. This conference is a forum in which applications of innovative techniques for solving complex problems will be presented. Artificial intelligence is changing our society. Its application in distributed environments, such as the internet, electronic commerce, environment monitoring, mobile communications, wireless devices, distributed computing, to mention only a few, is continuously increasing, becoming an element of high added value...
International Workshop on Evidence-Based Technology Enhanced Learning
Research on Technology Enhanced Learning (TEL) investigates how information and communication technologies can be designed in order to support pedagogical activities. The workshop proceedings collects contributions concerning evidence based TEL systems, like their design following EBD principles as well as studies or best practices that educators, education stakeholders or psychologists used to diagnose or improve their students' learning skills, including students with specific difficulties. The international ebTEL’12 workshop wants to be a forum in which TEL researchers and practitioners alike can discuss ideas, projects, and lessons related to ebTEL. The workshop takes place in Salamanca, Spain, on March 28th-30th 2012.

Ambient Intelligence - Software and Applications
Ambient Intelligence (AmI) is a recent paradigm emerging from Artificial Intelligence (AI), where computers are used as proactive tools assisting people with their day-to-day activities, making everyone’s life more comfortable. Another main concern of AmI originates from the human computer interaction domain and focuses on offering ways to interact with systems in a more natural way by means user friendly interfaces. This field is evolving quickly as can be witnessed by the emerging natural language and gesture based types of interaction. The inclusion of computational power and communication technologies in everyday objects is growing and their embedding into our environments should be as...
Universal Access in Human-Computer Interaction. Applications and Services
This is the third of a three-volume set that constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 4th International Conference on Universal Access in Human-Computer Interaction, UAHCI 2007, held in Beijing, China. It covers applications and services, including Web and media accessibility and usability, universal access to information and communication, learning and entertainment, and universal access to e-services.
The Croesus Club
What's this? Crap and corruption at the University of Toronto? Ah, but that was a generation ago. Surely we can bask in the belief that nothing like the events reported here might recur today, or in the future, or at other universities? Whether or not they did happen in Toronto, as they did, so long ago? But this story is not just a recounting of academic perfidy, of gentlemanly agreements trashed, of student welfare thrown to the winds by delusional professors. It follows, as well, the attempts of Kelly Collins, Professor of Theoretical Astrophysics, as he tries to surface from the devastating loss of his young wife and unborn child some years before. These attempts lead him to the purchase of a house, its rental to a variety of students and friends, and the establishment of an investment club-The Croesus Club. All of these initiatives take on lives of their own when he goes on sabbatical to the antipodes. He is forced, by inexplicable charges of his own moral turpitude, to make an early return. A mind-boggling romp through what the house has become explains Kelly's predicament, then culminates in a startling resolution of all.
Fábricas de Software: Experiencias, Tecnologías y Organización. 2ª Ed.
La fabricación de software es uno de los sectores de mayor crecimiento en los últimos años y representa, cada vez más, una de las principales actividades económicas tanto en los países desarrollados como para los países en vías de desarrollo. Y es que, en efecto, el software se halla presente en la actualidad en la mayor parte de los sistemas que resultan vitales para el funcionamiento y progreso de las sociedades modernas. El concepto de fábrica de software cumple ya más de cuarenta años, desde que en 1968 Bemer lo mencionara por primera vez y afirmara que: “parece que tenemos pocos entornos específicos (instalaciones de fábrica) para la producción económica de programas…...
Influencers educativos
50 personas e instituciones que son referencia en el mundo de la educacion. ¿Por qué cuando hablamos de influencers, personas que movilizan e inspiran, casi nadie se refiere a los influencers educativos? Toda la comunidad educativa (padres, alumnado, profesorado, directivos), necesita más que nunca personas e instituciones que sean referencia inspiracional, tanto para nosotros como para el exterior. Pero no es tiempo de espectadores o de que todos aquellos que estamos en educación nos situemos solo como seguidores. Hay también que singularizar y aportar valor con nuestra influencia. Debemos hacer algo para resultar interesantes en todos aquellos medios, redes y escenarios en los que se está hablando de futuro.Este libro muestra el camino para actuar en ese sentido y da a conocer la labor de 50 personas e instituciones que ya han elegido no ser espectadores, sino hacer de su vida un legado humilde pero multiplicador desde la perspectiva de la educación. Reflexión sobre el concepto de influencer educativo y descripción de 50 personas e instituciones que responden al mismo.
Barons, Brokers, and Buyers
This innovative ethnography takes a new approach to the study of Philippine sugar. For much of the late colonial history of the Philippines, sugar was its most lucrative export, the biggest employer, and the greatest source of political influence. The so-called "Sugar Barons"--wealthy hacendero planters located mainly in Central Luzon and on the Visayan island of Negros--gained the reputation as kingmakers and became noted for their lavish lifestyles and the quasi-feudal nature of their estates. But Philippine sugar gradually declined into obsolescence; today it is regarded as a "sunset industry" that can barely satisfy domestic demand. While planters continue to think of themselves as wield...
