Attempts by the research community to meet expectations arising from future Internet systems, and specifically to provide Quality of Service (QoS) for multimedia multi-user sessions, have resulted in mechanisms such as Multi-User Aggregated Resource Allocation (MARA). Its results have been promising, mainly because it drastically reduces signaling and processing overhead, despite its limitations in multi-ingress scenarios. In view of these benefits, this paper proposes the Multi-User Aggregated Resource Allocation - Multi-Ingress to overcome the main limitations of MARA so that it can serve as a promising tool in current and future IP-based network systems. The simulation experiments carried out for MARA-MI demonstrated the benefits in optimizing bandwidth use and networking costs while maintaining QoS over time in multiple sessions, in comparison to a relevant related work.

This paper presents the results of main part-of-speech tagging of Turkish sentences using Conditional Random Fields (CRFs). Although CRFs are applied to many different languages for part-of-speech (POS) tagging, Turkish poses interesting challenges to be modeled with them. The challenges include issues related to the statistical model of the problem as well as issues related to computational complexity and scaling. In this paper, we propose a novel model for main-POS tagging in Turkish. Furthermore, we propose some approaches to reduce the computational complexity and allow better scaling characteristics or improve the performance without increased complexity. These approaches are discussed with respect to their advantages and disadvantages. We show that the best approach is competitive with the current state of the art in accuracy and also in training and test durations. The good results obtained imply a good first step towards full morphological disambiguation.

Gestural devices have introduced new challenges to the field of user interaction. iPhone, despite the high intuitiveness of its gestural interface, raises a number of minor and major usability issues that due to its widespread usage affect a large user population. This study examines the usability of five preinstalled iPhone applications (Contacts, Clock, Camera, Calendar and Safari) by conducting testing sessions with users that have no (or limited) prior experience with iPhone, iPad and iPod and can thus be considered novices. The results of the usability assessment confirm the list of potential usability issues documented in related sources and stress the crucial importance of gestural interaction devices conforming to established fundamental principles of usable interaction design.

Smart phone application development is a very active field for both research and the market domain. This paper investigates the application of ICONIX, a use case driven, object-oriented (OO) analysis and design methodology, for the development of a smart phone personal assistant. It also studies the integration of hand-held haptic devices in daily work activities by evaluating the usability of the application using as basis test scenarios deriving from the identified use cases. The Tennis Coaching Assistant (TCA) is an iPhone application that provides management and scheduling capabilities for tennis coaches and allows a comprehensive overview of the execution of on-court drills and coaching programs. The use of ICONIX made analysis and design keep a sharp focus on user requirements, assured design and coding documentation, fostered an excellent communication among all participants and stake holders and provided the crucial advantage of high reusability in case of implementing the same application for additional smart phone platforms. The paper also describes the usability evaluation methodology applied and documents the results focusing on interaction difficulties and practical obstacles reported by the users as well as suggestions for future versions of the application, which generally received quite positive feedback.
