malibu is an open-source machine learning workbench developed in C/C++ for high-performance real-world applications, namely bioinformatics and medical informatics. It. leverages third-party machine learning implementations for more robust bug free software. this workbench handles several well-studied supervised machine learning problems including classification, regression, importance-weighted classification and multiple-instance learning. the malibu interface was designed to create reproducible experiments ideally run in a remote and/or command line environment. the software can be found at: http://***/malibu/***

the practical applicability of brain-computer interface (BCI) technology is limited due to its insufficient reliability and robustness. One of the major problems in this regard is the extensive variability and inconsistency of brain signal patterns, observed especially in electroencephalogram (EEG). this paper presents a fuzzy logic (FL) approach to the problem of handling of the resultant uncertainty effects. In particular, it outlines the design of a novel type-2 FL system (T2FLS) classifier within the framework of an EEG-based BCI, and examines its on-line applicability in the presence of short- and long-term nonstationarities of spectral EEG correlates of motor imagery (imagination of left vs. right hand movement). the developed system is shown to effectively cope with real-time constraints. In addition, a comparative post hoc analysis has revealed that the proposed T2FLS classifier outperforms conventional BCI methods, like LDA and SVM, in terms of the maximum classification accuracy (CA) rates by a relatively small, yet statistically significant, margin.

Intel® threading Building Blocks (TBB) was designed to simplify programming for multi-core platforms. By introducing a new way of expressing parallelism, developers can focus on efficient scalable parallel program design and avoid dealing with low level details of threading. this talk will focus on the taskbased approach to threading of the Intel® TBB. We will show step by step what needs to be done in order to take advantage of the TBB task based programming model in your code.

In this article, we propose a model for networked artifacts inspired from molecular chemistry. It demonstrates the intrinsic complexity of the domain illustrated with unsolved problems such as mastering the semantics of networked artefacts. Based on this model, we identify similarities withthe service-oriented computing paradigm and suggest possible avenues for collaboration between Software Engineering and researchers in EUD including: semantic alignment between end-user programming languages and service descriptions, and humanservice interaction as a transversal issue in software design.

In October 2004 the University of Lugano in southern Switzerland established a new faculty of informatics. Its founding, principles are innovation in teaching and faculty participation in the research community. With respect to teaching, students spend mornings attending lectures and afternoons in ail Atelier designed to support interaction both among students and withthe instructors. In teaching the first year "programming Fundamentals" courses, we took advantage of the clean state nature of the faculty to introduce innovative teaching elements. the novel aspects include Our use of Scheme, Smalltalk, and Java, our combination of individual, pair and group projects and the integration of expert lectures to introduce useful, but slightly orthogonal elements at key points in the semester. Our very positive experience is reported along with a discussion of aspects to improve in the future.

Medical device manufacturers continuously improve instruments with more capabilities at the point of care such as the bedside, operating room, intensive care unit, or emergency room. the instruments are in turn becoming more sophisticated;however, the operation of an instrument is still expected to be locally done by authorized medical personnel. the measurements from these instruments are stored using archaic methods such as a patient history record on a paper. the access to these records is cumbersome and not available unless the medical personnel is present at the point of care. Unfortunately, each medical instrument has its unique proprietary API (application programming interface - if any) to provide automated and electronic access to monitoring data. Integration of these APIs requires an agreement withthe manufacturers towards realization of interoperable health care networking. As long as the interoperability of instruments with a network is not possible, ubiquitous access to patient status is limited only to manual entry based systems. Manual entry is being implemented to create electronic health records, HL7, and similar initiatives. However, they do not address a bottom-up automation (i.e. from instrument and patient bed side up) to leverage the mature networking technologies in a health care setting. this paper demonstrates an attempt to realize an interoperable medical instrument interface for networking using MediCAN technology suite as an open standard. We will present the approach with a comparison study of a similar initiative led by ISO/IEEE 11073 standards.

When business software fails to provide the desired functionality, users typically turn to spreadsheets to perform simple but general computational tasks. However, spreadsheets enforce a view of the world that consists mostly of tables and numbers rather than the domain concepts users have in mind. We are using wikis as a platform for empowering end-users to perform computational tasks of their choice. this paper discusses how core properties of wikis can support end-user programming. We illustrate our approach using wiki prototype software for working with business objects as made available by SAP's business application suite. Copyright 2008 ACM.

We address the problem of computing and representing answers of constraint abduction problems over the Herbrand domain. this problem is of interest when performing type inference involving generalized algebraic data types. We show that simply recognizing a maximally general answer or fully maximal answer is co-NP complete. However we present an algorithm that computes the (finite) set of fully maximal answers of an abduction problem. the maximally general answers are generally infinite in number but we show how to generate a finite representation of them when only, unary function symbols are present.
