Leveraging Presence in the Design of Mobile Services: Challenges, Opportunities, and Value Creation | 2006-02-24 01:01:25 |
University of Southern California |
| |
The growing interest in presence stems from the enormous success of instant messaging and its natural evolution toward presence-based applications which leverage real-time information about user, system, or device to enable users and applications to make more intelligent decisions about information and request routing. The cumulative research on presence has failed to consider the implications of presence in the mobile environment and as such presence has been largely misunderstood and misapplied in the industry practices. This paper addresses this problem by explaining what presence is, how it relates to the mobile environment, and how it can increase value to the users of mobile services and applications.

Using VRML and Collaboration Tools to Enhance Feedback and Analysis of Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) Exercises | 2006-09-15 01:00:16 |
ThoughtLink |
| |
Military training exercises using Distributed Interactive Simulation (DIS) are often recorded and played back so trainees can visualize the 3D exercise and receive feedback in the form of an After Action Review (AAR). This paper discusses the capability of converting DIS exercises into virtual worlds accessible over the Internet using the Virtual Reality Modeling Language (VRML). The Internet accessibility of VRML, combined with other network-based collaboration tools supports the implementation of a "Remote expert" where geographically dispersed teams of trainers can provide feedback to trainees in other locations. The VRML exercise file can be annotated with multi-media collaboration input and analytical information.

Routing: Transitioning to IPv6 Now | 2005-12-20 16:04:06 |
|
| |
Of all the benefits that IPv6 promises for next-generation networking—autoconfiguration, limitless addresses, mobility—its ability to recreate end-to-end communications will be among its greatest contributions. By re-enabling direct peer-to-peer communications, IPv6 will be the catalyst for a new generation of shared-experience applications—virtual concerts, video meetings, online video classes, and real-time gaming—using voice, video, and presence-based technology that far transcend today's early-stage applications.
