Mobile technology is becoming increasingly widespread in museums and cultural heritage sites, and many institutions have already developed applications that can be downloaded on mobile phones. Amongst these, iPhone Applications are certainly the most popular. The research briefly presented here describes the phases of the development of an iPhone application to interactively present the story of the people and places depicted on the Summer War of Osaka byo̅bu (traditional Japanese wooden folding screens) currently displayed at Osaka Castle Museum, Osaka City, Japan. The iPhone application will also be integrated with the Tiled Display Wall system of the Knowledge Creating Communication Research Center of NICT (Kyoto) to test various interaction functionalities.

The calculation of short-circuit currents in DC auxiliary systems of power plants and substations is essential for design and application of distribution and protective devices used in these systems. Because of differences between DC and AC auxiliary systems, DC system protection designers should be take into account that important fact in calculation and dimensioning of DC auxiliary system. There are several mathematical models that are usually used for calculation of short-circuit currents in DC auxiliary system. In this paper, the authors performed short-circuit currents calculation for one real DC auxiliary system of power plant using three different, well-known, mathematical models. The results of calculations were compared with results given by testing of selectivity of DC auxiliary system on the site. Based on comparison results of different calculations and testing on the site conclusion related to choice one of three the most often used mathematical models as the most suitable has deduced.
In recent years, computer-generated interactive virtual characters, called Embodied Conversational Agents (ECAs), are subjects of considerable ongoing research. Nevertheless, their conversational abilities are mediocr...

This document proposes an approach for financial statements' anomalies detection by using on-line evolving clustering. Official records of the financial activities of a business are called financial statements and they are recorded in journals and general ledger in a supervised process. Anomalies in financial statements are caused by human mistakes during forming of financial statements, or as a result of changes in the software that produced un-expected errors, or as possible financial fraud.

Data migration within storage cloud is complicated due to the necessity of scaling the cloud. Dividing migration is proposed to speed up scaling. Migration is divided into scaling and residual migration. The problem of data migration within storage cloud is defined as a multi-criterion optimization problem of data relocation plan. The main criterion of the optimization is scaling speed. The second criterion is residual migration speed. In general, the problem of data migration is NP-hard. Polynomial time approximation algorithm is presented in this article. The another result of this work is a prove of optimality algorithm by the first criterion.

In this paper we describe our approach to realize a pervasive (computing) learning environment for children based on augmented toys: traditional toys that are equipped with pervasive computing technologies and can thus be linked with virtual information such as educational content. We report on our experiences building and deploying the Augmented Knight's Castle, an augmented toy environment that allows for learning about the Middle Ages in a playful way. We demonstrate and discuss how educational content is provided in such an environment and describe the design of the underlying infrastructure.
