Template semantics is a template-based approach to describing the semantics of model-based notations, where a pre-defined template captures the notations' common semantics, and parameters specify the notations' distinct semantics.

We describe a fully automated translator that takes as input a specification written in template semantics syntax, and a set of template parameters, encoding the specification's semanti

HCI designers are rarely trained in sound design, and may not make the most effective use of sound in the design of interactions. Even when sound is at the centre of a design it is rarely evaluated to compare the experiences of designers and listeners.

To achieve this goal, the prior probability of completion between two particular regions of interest is modelled by a 3D directional random walk, which is representative of the ensemble anisotropic disp

A global map is formed from a set of local maps for sub-regions of the environments. Each local map contains quantitative environment information used to define a local reference frame. These maps are referred to as islands of reliability because they are associated with the sub-regions whose local structure is best matched to the sensors we are using. The connectivity of these islands is represented topologically. The key mapping problem we consider is w

Abstract:
DNA molecules are sequences of characters over a four letter alphabet. Determining the text of the DNA sequence contained in human cells is the goal of the Human Genome Project. The structure of a DNA sequence is reconstructed from a set of shorter fragments sampled from it at unknown locations, as it is usually too long to be determined directly. We consider the problem when the the fragments are very long, and each fragment has a fingerprint consisting of the presence of two or three pre-selected, smaller sequences called probes within it. These probes have a unique location along the origin
