how long should a post event massage last
|
The post-event massage is typically given anywhere from 30 minutes up to 24 hours after competition or activity. When working with runners after a marathon, I will focus on post-event techniques even up to 48 hours after their race, because of the damage they are doing to their muscles.

Summary Seventeen strains of C virus representing 16 different antigenic varieties were tested for their capacity to remain active or multiply following consecutive passages in embryonated eggs inoculated on the chorioallantoic membrane. Viral activity was demonstrated in suckling mice with membranes infected by each of 10 strains after one egg passage, by 5 strains after an additional passage, by 3 strains after 3 passages and by one strain (Easton-10) after 5 passages. The findings indicated that multiplication of the Easton-10 virus had occurred.

Previous studies on the serological diagnosis of rotavirus infection have utilised locally produced antibodies. In this study we have compared two commercially produced assays, an ELISA (Rotazyme, Abbott) and a newly developed assay--solid phase aggregation of coupled erythrocytes (SPACE) (Wellcome Research Laboratories), with electron microscopy (EM). The SPACE test appeared less sensitive than EM. The ELISA was shown to be as sensitive as EM but more versatile. Our experience suggests that the ELISA could be successfully incorporated into the routine of any diagnostic laboratory.

The Role of the Host Membrane in the Morphogenesis of the Head of Coliphage T4
|
Head morphogenesis in T4 represents an ideal system for studying the interaction of proteins with nucleic acid since many of the relevant components can be dissected genetically. T4 head morphogenesis has been studied by electron microscopic examination of cells infected with conditional lethal mutants under non-permissive conditions. However, the structures accumulated often are not normal intermediates. In vitro complementation (the formation of a head from its pieces) has not been achieved for T4. In fact, it has been carried out with good efficiency only with Tobacco Mosaic Virus. Here we describe a new approach for the examination of the early events of T4 head morphogenesis which conceivable could be used to study other viruses.

IMPACT STATEMENT ::: This article describes a method for engrafting epithelial progenitor cells to a revascularized scaffold in a protective and supportive collagen-rich environment. This method has the potential to overcome two key limitations of existing grafting techniques as epithelial cells are protected from mechanical shear and the relatively hypoxic phase that occurs while grafts revascularize, offering the opportunity to provide epithelial cells to decellularized allografts at the point of implantation. Advances in this area will improve the safety and efficacy of bioengineered organ transplantation.

The regulation mechanism of c-jun and junB by human papillomavirus type 16 E5 oncoprotein
|
In this study, we show that HPV-16 E5 induced anchorage-independent growth in immortalized human epidermal keratinocytes and that HPV-16 E5 in human keratinocytes had higher expression of c-jun and junB; also, we investigated the role of transcriptional initiation pathways in the expression elevation. In addition, Ras-dependent pathway, as well as PKC-dependent pathway, leads to HPV-16 E5-induced c-jun gene expression.

An analysis of all possible icosahedral viral capsids is proposed. It takes into account the diversity of coat proteins and their positioning in elementary pentagonal and hexagonal configurations, leading to definite capsid size. We show that the self-organization of observed capsids during their production implies a definite composition and configuration of elementary building blocks. The exact number of different protein dimers is related to the size of a given capsid, labeled by its T -number. Simple rules determining these numbers for each value of T are deduced and certain consequences concerning the probabilities of mutations and evolution of capsid viruses are discussed.

Detection and genetic characterization of Canine parvovirus and Canine coronavirus strains circulating in district of Tirana in Albania
|
An epidemiological survey for Canine parvovirus 2 (CPV-2) and Canine coronavirus (CCoV) was conducted in Albania. A total of 57 fecal samples were collected from diarrheic dogs in the District of Tirana during 2011-2013. The molecular assays detected 53 and 31 CPV- and CCoV-positive specimens, respectively, with mixed CPV-CCoV infections diagnosed in 28 dogs. The most frequently detected CPV type was 2a, whereas IIa was the predominant CCoV subtype. A better comprehension of the CPV-CCoV epidemiology in eastern European countries will help to assess the most appropriate vaccination strategies to prevent disease due to infections with these widespread agents of acute gastroenteritis in the dog.

Tissue Culture Studies on Murine Virus-induced Leukemia Cells: Isolation of Single Cells in Agar-Liquid Medium
|
Summary Maturation along the erythrocytic line is observed in long-term cell cultures of murine virus-induced leukemic cells. In attempts to determine the relationship between the different morphologic types in these cultures, an adaptation of the Sanders technic of plating and cloning cells utilizing an agar-liquid medium was devised. This method permitted the cloning of single cells. The progeny of each clone consisted of primitive cells, proerythroblasts, and erythroblasts. From these data the possibility is considered that the primitive cell characteristic of the murine leukemia under study is an erythrocyte precursor.

On the Possible Direct Conversion of RNA to DNA
|
In the present study we have investigated the possibility that an RNA molecule can be directly converted in DNA by sequential action of ribonucleotide reductase- and thymidylate synthetase-like activities. The reasons for advancing such an unorthodox hypothesis arose from some considerations on the nuclear RNA (hnRNA) from eukaryotic cells.

Efficacy of antimicrobial therapy in experimental rat pneumonia: effects of impaired phagocytosis.
|
The importance of intact host defense mechanisms for successful antimicrobial therapy was investigated in an animal model. Recovery from lobar pneumococcal pneumonia as a result of penicillin therapy was studied in normal rats and in rats treated with cobra venom factor. This factor was used to selectively suppress the phagocytosis of pneumococci as a result of complement depletion. Although complete recovery from the infection occurred in normal rats after appropriate penicillin therapy, this was not the case in cobra venom factor-treated rats. Within the limitations of this study, evidence is presented for loss of antibiotic activity as a consequence of impaired phagocytosis.

In this paper, we propose a new facial expression recognition approach based on the use of Gabor filter features. These features are extracted only from regions of interest (ROI). These regions are the components of the face most involved in the expression of emotions. Then we select the best features with PCA. Finally, the SVM classifier is used for the classification of basic facial expressions. The experiment results show the superiority of the method and researched recognition rates of 95.11% and 92.19% for JAFFE and CK+ datasets respectively.

Facial expressions are an important way through which humans interact socially. Building a system capable of automatically recognizing facial expressions from images and video has been an intense field of study in recent years. Interpreting such expressions remains challenging and much research is needed about the way they relate to human affect. This paper presents a general overview of automatic RGB, 3D, thermal and multimodal facial expression analysis. We define a new taxonomy for the field, encompassing all steps from face detection to facial expression recognition, and describe and classify the state of the art methods accordingly. We also present the important datasets and the bench-marking of most influential methods. We conclude with a general discussion about trends, important questions and future lines of research.

The effect of emotion on keystroke: An experimental study using facial feedback hypothesis
|
The automatic emotion recognition technology is an important part of building intelligent systems to prevent the computers acting inappropriately. A novel approach for recognizing emotional state by their keystroke typing patterns on a standard keyboard was developed in recent years. However, there was very limited investigation about the phenomenon itself in the previous literatures. Hence, in our study, we conduct a controlled experiment to collect subjects' keystroke data in the different emotional states induced by facial feedback. We examine the difference of the keystroke data between positive and negative emotional states. The results prove the significance in the differences in the typing patterns under positive and negative emotions for all subjects. Our study provides an evidence for the reasonability about developing the technique of emotion recognition by keystroke.

Facial Expression Recognition Based on Image Feature
|
Facial expressions provide an important behavioral measure for the study of emotions, cognitive processes and social interaction and thus automatic facial expression recognition systems can provide a less intrusive method to apprehend the emotion activity of a person of interest. With the availability of low cost imaging and computational devices, automatic facial recognition systems now have a potential to be useful in several day-to-day application environments like in identifying suspicious persons in airports, railway stations and other places with higher threat of terrorism attacks.

Most transformer failures are attributed to bushings failures. Hence it is necessary to monitor the condition of bushings. In this paper three methods are developed to monitor the condition of oil filled bushing. Multi-layer perceptron (MLP), Radial basis function (RBF) and Rough Set (RS) models are developed and combined through majority voting to form a committee. The MLP performs better that the RBF and the RS is terms of classification accuracy. The RBF is the fasted to train. The committee performs better than the individual models. The diversity of models is measured to evaluate their similarity when used in the committee.

Applications to Real Case Studies
|
This chapter is mainly devoted to practical applications. In particular we present an application concerning the facial expression of emotion along with a case study aimed at analyzing aortic valve morphology. We also introduce two innovative topics: biometric morphing and nonparametric iterated combination for paired data. In practice, the result of the application of the NPC tests described in the previous chapters depends also on the choice of the combining function. Every combining function has its own characteristics and can be preferable to others in specific situations. As a consequence, results may differ slightly depending on which combining function is used. Sometimes, especially with categorical variables, different combining functions may lead to different results in terms of statistical significance. To remove these differences and assess the useful properties of many different types of combinations, the iterated combining procedure can be applied.

Human Microbiota of the Argentine Population- A pilot study
|
Here we present the first dataset based on human microbiota samples of an urban middle-income population in South America. We characterized the microbiota of six different body habitats: palatine tonsils, saliva, buccal mucosa, throat, anterior nares and gut from samples of healthy individual living in a metropolitan area in Argentina. Our initial findings revealed differences in the structure and composition of the microbial communities compared to the US urban population. By sharing our data, we want to actively encourage its reuse for comparison purposes. This will hopefully result in novel biological insights on the variability of the microbiota of healthy individuals across populations worldwide. Moreover, the understanding of the human microbiota ecosystem in a health-associated state will help to answer questions related to the role of the microbiota in disease.

Recent studies have stressed the importance of disseminating behavior analysis to a more diverse audience and have provided ways to do so effectively. General science publications offer an attractive venue for communicating with a scientifically educated public. The present study examines behavior analysis research published in Science Today and Research Fapesp, monthly general science publications published by the Brazilian Society for the Advancement of Science and Sao Paulo Research Foundation, respectively. Behavior analytic terms were searched in issues published from 2003 to 2014, along with psychoanalytic terms as a comparative measure. Only 13 behavior analysis articles were found, while psychoanalytic articles totaled 150. Six of the behavior analysis articles misconstrue fundamental concepts of behavior analysis. The study recommends that behavior analysis researchers extend the dissemination of their findings outside the box.

This paper summarizes models of estimation and analysis for the measure of consumer food preferences originally derived by Manly et al. (1972) and further developed by Chesson (1978). Unlike many alternative measure this measure of preference does not change with changes in food densities unless consumer behavior also changes. This measure is shown to relate in a simple way to parameters, such as clearance and attack rates, which appear in certain commonly used models of foraging behavior. See full-text article at JSTOR

Pavlovian influences on goal-directed behavior in mice: The role of cue-reinforcer relations
|
Two experiments refined procedures to study Pavlovian influences on goal-directed behavior in mice and studied the effects of CS–US relations in Pavlovian-instrumental interactions. Independent groups of mice underwent Pavlovian training to associate either a 10-sec or 2-min auditory stimulus (CS) with reward. We next assessed the ability of the response-contingent CS presentations to reinforce novel instrumental responding (conditioned reinforcement; CRf) or the ability of noncontingent CS presentations to increase ongoing instrumental responding (Pavlovian-instrumental transfer; PIT). Whereas 10-sec training conditions produced strong CRf (and no PIT), 2-min training conditions produced robust PIT (but no CRf).

By contrast, factors easing the transition to divorce have a negative impact on marital duration. We draw on a sample of 313 wives and mothers in an upstate New York community interviewed in 1956 and reinterviewed thirty years later. We find that structural factors (marital duration and previous marriage) and factors that increase women's options outside of marriage, such as self-esteem and returning to school, are more important than attitudinal factors in hastening the transition to divorce. Factors that ease the transition to marriage (similarity in religious beliefs and educational level) may not necessarily affects its duration.

To evaluate the impact of actual and perceived similarity on interpersonal attraction, we meta-analyzed 460 effect sizes from 313 laboratory and field investigations. Results indicated that the associations between interpersonal attraction and both actual similarity (r = .47) and perceived similarity (r = .39) were significant and large. The data also indicate that (i) actual similarity was important in no-interaction and short-interaction studies, (ii) there was a significant reduction in the effect size of actual similarity beyond no-interaction studies, and (iii) the effect of actual similarity in existing relationships was not significant. Alternatively, perceived similarity predicted attraction in no-interaction, short-interaction, and existing relationship studies. The implications of perceived similarity, rather than actual similarity, being predictive of attraction in existing relationships are discussed.

This study demonstrated how Multisample Structural Equation Modeling can be used to statistically test the generaliability of findings across lab and field studies. This study is embedded in the context of attribution theory, as previous research has substantiated a model of cognition-emotion-behavior responses. The statistical test of generalizability serves as a companion to "practical" significance tests forwarded by others.

This study identifies why conflict reactions vary, focusing on the role attributions play on the relationship between conflict and anger within executive teams. Two attributions were examined: intentionality and controllability. Intentionality was a significant moderator between cognitive conflict and anger, whereas controllability marginally moderated the relationship between affective conflict and anger. These findings provide further evidence that attributions about the actions or comments of an individual can contribute to subsequent conflict. They also help understand prior mixed results about conflict effects. Cognitive conflict had a favorable outcome when it was attributed as being constructive and dysfunctional when attributed as destructive.

What field studies the relationship between emotion and learning?
|
Many different disciplines have produced work on the emotions. Human sciences study the role of emotions in mental processes, disorders, and neural mechanisms. In psychiatry, emotions are examined as part of the discipline's study and treatment of mental disorders in humans. Nursing studies emotions as part of its approach to the provision of holistic health care to humans. Psychology examines emotions from a scientific perspective by treating them as mental processes and behavior and they explore the underlying physiological and neurological processes. In neuroscience sub-fields such as social neuroscience and affective neuroscience, scientists study the neural mechanisms of emotion by combining neuroscience with the psychological study of personality, emotion, and mood. In linguistics, the expression of emotion may change to the meaning of sounds. In education, the role of emotions in relation to learning is examined.

Dogs show less fear and what as opposed to wolves?
|
Unlike other domestic species which were primarily selected for production-related traits, dogs were initially selected for their behaviors. In 2016, a study found that there were only 11 fixed genes that showed variation between wolves and dogs. These gene variations were unlikely to have been the result of natural evolution, and indicate selection on both morphology and behavior during dog domestication. These genes have been shown to have an impact on the catecholamine synthesis pathway, with the majority of the genes affecting the fight-or-flight response (i.e. selection for tameness), and emotional processing. Dogs generally show reduced fear and aggression compared to wolves. Some of these genes have been associated with aggression in some dog breeds, indicating their importance in both the initial domestication and then later in breed formation.

Walter Bradford Cannon agreed that physiological responses played a crucial role in emotions, but did not believe that physiological responses alone could explain subjective emotional experiences. He argued that physiological responses were too slow and often imperceptible and this could not account for the relatively rapid and intense subjective awareness of emotion. He also believed that the richness, variety, and temporal course of emotional experiences could not stem from physiological reactions, that reflected fairly undifferentiated fight or flight responses. An example of this theory in action is as follows: An emotion-evoking event (snake) triggers simultaneously both a physiological response and a conscious experience of an emotion.

what the approach to skinners theory?
|
Through his study and research, Skinner found that the theory of behaviorism could be applied in natural selection in the broadest context of organism behavior. In his work, Skinner designed some tools and equipment to use in his experiments and study.
|
The primary tenet of methodological behaviorism, as expressed in the writings of John B. Watson and others, is that psychology should have only concerned itself with observable events. Behaviorist philosophies shifted somewhat during the 1940s and 1950s and again since the 1980s. Radical: Skinner 's behaviorism expands behavioral principles to processes within the organism. 2 It acknowledges the presence of private events such as thoughts and feelings, and suggests that environmental variables control these internal events just as they control observable behaviors.

|
What do you do when you know you're right, but the rest of the group disagrees with you? Do you bow to group pressure? In a series of famous experiments conducted during the 1950s, psychologist Solomon Asch demonstrated that people would give the wrong answer on a test in order to fit in with the rest of the group. In Asch's famous conformity experiments, people were shown a line and then asked to select the line of a matching length from a group of three. Asch also placed confederates in the group who would intentionally select the wrong lines.

Sept. 26, 2007 -- HDL cholesterol is often nicknamed good cholesterol, and a new study shows just how good HDL cholesterol can be for people with heart disease. Here's the take-home message: The higher HDL cholesterol levels were, the better, even when LDL (bad) cholesterol levels were very low.
|
What cholesterol is: Cholesterol is a fat (lipid) in your blood. High-density lipoprotein (HDL) (good cholesterol) helps protect your heart, but low-density lipoprotein (LDL) (bad cholesterol) can clog the arteries of your heart.ome cholesterol tests also measure triglycerides, another type of fat in the blood. What type of test this is: This is a quantitative testâyou find out the amount of total cholesterol present in your sample.

The objective of the present study was to develop a data-driven framework for MMI (multimodal interaction) system development. In the area of software engineering, data-driven development methods have proven to be reusable and extensible in the object-oriented paradigm. We have designed an object-oriented data modeling language for MMI systems and an extended elements of HTML for interaction description. The proposed framework uses the extended Rails framework as a generator of the MVC (Model-View-Controller) elements from the proposed objectoriented data modeling language. As the generated view code is written in extended HTML, we also implemented a speech browser for the extended HTML. We evaluated the framework by rapidly implementing a messaging system and examined its extensibility by a functionality expansion test.

The home is becoming a complex and hard to manage collection of computers and digital lifestyle devices. The work to setup and maintain a network of digital living devices in the home is similar to the work of IT professionals. Indeed the growing complexity of interconnected digital devices results in more and more time spent solving problems with those devices and their configurations, an important part of computer use that we call "IT@Home". This workshop explores the complexity of framing the right problems, methods for studying those problems, and designing to support users' IT@Home.

Home networking continues to expand into a collection of computers and networked devices that are becoming more complex to setup and manage. Research indicated that new techniques were needed to help people set up a secure home network. The techniques should satisfy the expectations of advanced users, without requiring technical knowledge on the part of novice users. A central design theme influenced the software solution: If a networking expert was advising a user on how to set up, configure, and secure a home network, what would this person tell the user to do?. In this case study, insights about creating a new home networking program to solve the challenges are discussed. Results indicated animations, good default settings and a network map increased the user success rate for network setup.

We propose a cooking system that operates in an open environment. The system cooks a meal by pouring various ingredients into a boiling pot on an induction heating cooker and adjusts the heating strength according to the user's instructions. We then describe how the system incorporates robotic- and human-specific elements in a shared workspace so as to achieve a cooperative rudimentary cooking capability. First, we use small mobile robots instead of built-in arms to save space, improve flexibility and increase safety. Second, we use detachable visual markers to allow the user to easily configure the real-world environment. Third, we provide a graphical user interface to display detailed cooking instructions to the user. We hope insights obtained in this experiment will be useful for the design of other household systems in the future.

By Tony Martini, Economics ::: Advisor: Michael Jones ::: Presentation ID: AM_D39 ::: Abstract: This study suggests new methods of measuring the effectiveness of universities in protecting students from the impact of automation on the labor market. Using US government data on occupational activities and traditional measures of university outcomes, we produce a ranking of college majors by their susceptibility to automation and determine correlations between predicted traditional and automation-based outcomes. These are combined into a complete metric for the "automation resistance" of a university. Using an approach centered on distinctly human skills, occupational activities can be ranked by their automation resistance. Institutions which develop student skills with a focus on automation resistance should likewise demonstrate greater long-term viability. We demonstrate this methodology through a case study using data from the University of Cincinnati.

Study and implementation of a multimodal system to support virtual prototyping
|
Multimodal sensory stimulation is one of the most important challenges in human-computer interaction. When we want to play a virtual system it is important that the reproduced signals to stimulate the different sensory channels are synchronized with each other. This paper presents the study and implementation of a multimodal stimulation system. The proposed system is a step forwards a previous developed tactile platform (called Ipertouch 1.0). Main novelties regard the introduction of audio and visual feedbacks and signals synchronization. For acoustic stimulation, an auralization algorithm is applied on records of rubbing finger on a given class of material. For visual stimulation, a 3D rendering software is developed. Tests are performed to evaluate the degree of synchronism among the three different sensory channels.

Acoustic user interfaces for ambient-assisted living technologies
|
This contribution discusses technologies for acoustic user interaction in ambient-assisted living (AAL) scenarios. Acoustic user interfaces allow for a natural and convenient way to interact with technical systems e.g. via sound or speech presentation or via speech input by means of automatic speech recognition (ASR) as well as by detection and classification of acoustic events. Older persons targeted by AAL technologies especially need more easy-to-use methods to interact with inherently complex supporting technology. As an example we designed and evaluated an application for acoustic user interaction with a multi-media reminder and calendar system. For this purpose, mainly older participants were involved in user studies to continuously evaluate and support the development strictly following a user-centred design process. The results suggest a wide acceptance of acoustic user interfaces by older users either for controlling inherently complex AAL systems by using robust ASR technologies or as a natural ...

Can We Recognize Atmosphere as an Agent
|
There are many environment control systems such as air conditioning systems for providing suitable environment to users. However, there are significant individual differences in the sense of suitable environments among users. Hence, a recommendation system indicating personally suitable environments for each user is extremely important. For this purpose, we are now developing an interactive human–machine interface system that dynamically recommends a suitable room environment for users. In this study, we investigated how the anthropomorphic appearance of the recommending system affected the satisfaction of the users. The results showed that the intellectual impression of the appearance was more important than the emotional impression when using the recommendation system.

Pervasive computing comes to provide human-centric services, facilitating user interaction. These services are essentially context-aware which require complex, heterogeneous infrastructures containing numerous sensors and actuators configured for in-door environments, called ?smart spaces?. One challenge in expanding such services is the complexity of these environments, requiring a significant amount of time to set-up and configure. In this paper we introduce an approach for providing assistance to remote users who can interface with the smart space either by using mobile devices, or by using a cut-down version of the ?smart space? with only a few simple but essential sensors. Furthermore we describe how this approach has been incorporated in a prototype non-intrusive human-centric application, providing assistance in the case of meetings, lectures and presentations called ?Memory Jog?.

In this paper, we discuss pointing gesture estimation in the context of Human Robot Interaction (HRI). Pointing gesture provides and utilizes information in Kukanchi (Interactive Human Space Design and Intelligence) more natural than other conservative method like keyboard or mouse. Therefore, we design a user interface adopting pointing gesture to manipulate objects and robot naturally in 3D space. Initially, human posture is tracked. Later, the information is used to detect the dynamic pointing gesture using our proposed method which is Hidden Markov Model (HMM). Preliminary experiment shows the average angular error of pointing direction is less than seven degrees.

In hospitals, offices and other settings, professionals face the challenge of accessing and sharing sensitive content in public areas. As tablets become increasingly adopted in work environments, it is important to explore ways to support privacy that are appropriate for tablet use in dynamic, mobile workflows. In this research we consider how spatial information can be utilized to support both individual and collaborative work in a natural way while respecting data privacy. We present a proof-of-concept implementation of a proximity-aware tablet, and a range of privacy notification and control mechanisms designed for such a tablet. Results from a user study support the idea that interpersonal distance and orientation can be used to mediate privacy management for tablet interfaces. Selecting a specific design for privacy threat notification and response is highly context-dependent-for example, in health care the first priority is to not impede the fluid exchange of information.

The 'Haptic Chair' [3] delivers vibrotactile stimulation to several parts of the body including the palmar surface of the hand (palm and fingers), and has been shown to have a significant positive effect on the enjoyment of music even by the profoundly deaf. In this paper, we explore the effectiveness of using the Haptic Chair during speech therapy for the deaf. We conducted a 24-week study with 20 profoundly deaf users to validate our initial observations. The improvements in word clarity observed over the duration of this study indicate that the Haptic Chair has the potential to make a significant contribution to speech therapy for the deaf.

Extended KLM for mobile phone interaction: a user study result
|
Facing with the fast development of mobile phones, the designers need to evaluate user performance for early responding to the potential interaction problems. Previous studies show that the original Keystroke-Level Model (KLM) has been successfully used in conventional computer-based interaction design. However, with the emphasizing of the next-generation design and new interactions in mobile phones, the existing KLM cannot fulfill all range of mobile-based tasks. This research aims to present discussions on extending KLM for mobile phone interaction. In addition to the basic operators in conventional KLM, another fourteen new operators and a new concept - operator block were proposed. This extended KLM will help designers to reach a full-fledged user performance model for mobile phone interaction.

Agent Based Simulation for Pedestrian Movement during Panic Situation
|
Evacuation is the movement of people from a dangerous to a safer location. To minimize casualties during a panic situation, building design should consider evacuation plans . An evacuation process is complicated and interrupted by irregular behavior, pedestrians’ or agents’ characteristics, time limit and the surrounding environment. The computer simulation software SimWalk was used in this study to plan for an evacuation during a panic situation. It is revealed that when the bottleneck occurred, pedestrians would collide with each other, hence increasing the friction between them.

Pervasive computing comes to provide human-centric services, facilitating user interaction. These services are essentially context-aware which require complex, heterogeneous infrastructures containing numerous sensors and actuators configured for in-door environments, called ?smart spaces?. One challenge in expanding such services is the complexity of these environments, requiring a significant amount of time to set-up and configure. In this paper we introduce an approach for providing assistance to remote users who can interface with the smart space either by using mobile devices, or by using a cut-down version of the ?smart space? with only a few simple but essential sensors. Furthermore we describe how this approach has been incorporated in a prototype non-intrusive human-centric application, providing assistance in the case of meetings, lectures and presentations called ?Memory Jog?.

This study was designed to provide an empirical comparison of three IRT calibration programs, IRTPRO, BILOG-MG, and IRTLRDIF, all of which can be used for detecting differential item functioning (DIF). The three programs were compared for each of three dichotomous IRT models, the one-parameter logistic, the two-parameter logistic, and the three-parameter logistic models. Results from each of these programs were examined using data from a test designed to predict high school graduation test results in a large Southeastern US state. Results suggested that all three programs detected DIF differently.
