In this poster, we propose the framework of BizCQ, a system to apply Continual Queries [7][8] on Web-based content to manage information exchanges between two business partners. In this poster, we describe ways to leverage previous research in Web monitoring techniques applied to the everyday problem of managing change within a business environment, and focus on the difficulties of managing changes that are caused by external parties in business-Tobusiness (B2B) information exchanges.

Over the last ten years, our department's breadth-first introductory course has evolved independently of other survey courses in computer science. Due to its success, we duplicated the ideas into our course for non-majors, and this has also proven successful. None of the published resources match our vision for these courses, and so the department has developed its own. In this paper, we describe the design of the majors course, and we introduce a variety of resources developed for both courses. These resources, which could be useful in many other courses also, are freely available through the Web.

Component-based programming is a methodology for designing software systems as assemblages of components with a low degree of coherence and a high degree of orthogonality. Decoupling and orthogonality, however, require coupling and assembling on the side of the component's client. This paper addresses performance problems that occur in the composition specifically of library components. We discuss the design and implementation of a composer, which assembles library components based on a classification of their declarative performance descriptions. Employing an off-the-shelf decision-tree procedure for selecting, and the C++ technique of traits for propagating the desired behavior throughout the whole library, our system allows for rapid performance predictions. It is applied to FFTL, an "STL-like" C++ library for the Fast Fourier Transform.

In the design of chip carriers, appropriate analysis tools can shorten the overall production cycle and reduce costs. Among the functions to be performed by such computer-aided engineering software tools are self and mutual capacitance calculations. Since the method of moments is slow when applied to large multi-conductors systems, a fast approximate method, the average potential method (APM), can be employed for capacitance calculations. This paper describes the improved average potential method, which can further reduce the computational complexity and achieve more accuracy than the APM.

This paper introduces the concept of rationality-based computing (RBC) and a preliminary design of middleware, GameMosix, that implements the concept. Millions of computers and mobile devices over the Internet play rationality-based games in sharing computational resources. Researchers in computer systems communities are becoming more interested in game theory and evolutionary computing. First, we discuss previous work on game theory and evolutionary game theory applied to computer systems. Then we introduce the design of a preliminary version of RBC middleware architecture and some results from the simulation of the architecture.

AI techniques have been applied in games since the beginning of the field. Fuzzy measures and fuzzy integrals, a powerful tool for decision making, have potentiality in games for the evaluation of strategies. In this paper we will explore the use of such soft computing techniques and show their interest in decision making and modeling auctions. The paper describes the role of fuzzy measures and integrals in decision making and reviews some computational aspects that are important for the application of such methods in real applications. The paper also gives a short overview on the methods for learning the parameters for these integrals from examples.

We are given an unknown polynomial f ∈ Z[x] by a black box which on input a returns a value ra · f(a) for some unknown nonzero rational numbers ra. If we have appropriate upper bounds on the numerator and denominator of ra and the degree of f, then the coefficients of f can be computed in probabilistic polynomial time.

To make practical ubiquitous computing environment for everyday activities especially for house and home, the environment has to be proactively managed by the users at home themselves. This paper introduces an "Our Ubiquitous computing Home Inside Project" and outlines some of our user-centered information architecture and interaction technique to provide practical ubiquitous computing environment at home. We have implemented two prototype systems called Coordi and Collenda to demonstrate our approach, and applied these to clothing coordination task. The result shows that the systems were proven to be useful for managing information and for decision-making.

Ubiquitous computing and Software Agents allow a high degree of decentralization, the capability to process an increasing amount of information and the ability to react in real-time on changes in the environment. They are thus capable to support highly dynamic environments like logistics processes in hospitals. However, giving up centralized control means also a dependency upon common rule sets and the question how decentralized entities can be enforced to adhere to regulations and definitions which are deemed imperative by the human systems designer and to assure acceptability. The paper shows the methods and concepts applied in EMIKA and their reflection regarding the specific requirements of the hospital application.
