Computing with Instinct: Rediscovering Artificial Intelligence
ISBN: 9783642197567 / Angielski / Miękka / 163 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Simplicity in nature is the ultimate sophistication. The world's magnificence has been enriched by the inner drive of instincts, the profound drive of our everyday life. Instinct is an inherited behavior that responds to environmental stimuli. Instinctive computing is a computational simulation of biological and cognitive instincts, which influence how we see, feel, appear, think and act. If we want a computer to be genuinely secure, intelligent, and to interact naturally with us, we must give computers the ability to recognize, understand, and even to have primitive instincts. This... Simplicity in nature is the ultimate sophistication. The world's magnificence has been enriched by the inner drive of instincts, the profound drive... |

The Politics of Usability: A Practical Guide to Designing Usable Systems in Industry
ISBN: 9783540761815 / Angielski / Miękka / 194 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Why This Book, Why Now? It is now widely recognized that in the development of IT systems, the technology driven focus of the past has been eclipsed by a concern for user satisfaction and user productivity. It is well known that usability engineering helps make systems easier to use and more relevant to business needs. The benefits of producing usable computer systems have been proven in careful dollar or pound calculations and any computer user who has interacted with a system designed for usability will enthuse about the benefits and refuse to go back to the bad old days. More and more...

User Interfaces for Wearable Computers: Development and Evaluation
ISBN: 9783835102569 / Angielski / Miękka / 273 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Looking at mobile solutions or wearable computing, it immediately becomes apparent that their user interfaces call for di?erent solutions than the desktop paradigm. This is not only due to the very small size of the displays but also predominantly to the need for a much stronger dependency on the applications. In addition, they feature a use of environmental sensors which has never been seen before enabling applications to run in an Ambient Intelligence Environment. This development requires new solutions and constitutes new research questions. With this book, Dr. Witt contributes to the goal...
