Abstract:

This licentiate thesis focuses on how to design a robust and flexible environment for net-based learning. The environment is required to be scalable for large groups, robust over lossy networks, flexible to meet different learning scenarios, and support interactivity. The mStar environment presented in this thesis has been developed to meet these requirements. The environment is scalable through the use of IP multicast and a server-less design. Robustness is achieved by separating traffic by loss tolerance, where traffic that accept no loss uses a reliable multicast protocol and traffic that c

Abstract:

Television is moving towards Internet-based services with an increasing popularity of online streaming and connected TV sets. However, the lean-back viewing experience is often forgotten in the design of such services – traditional broadcasted television is still the source for relaxed entertainment in the living room. In this study, a concept of a new TV service is proposed. The aim is to create a solution where the qualities in traditional television are preserved in an online environment. The decisions that were taken when shaping this concept are based on a literature study, a market analy

However, these chatbots do not consider long-term memory, which in turn motivates further research. In this study, short-term memory is develo

The amount of notifications we receive from our digital devices is higher today than ever, often causing distress in users constantly having to move their devices into the center of attention, digesting the information received visually. By using earcons, a sonic abstraction of the underlying information, we can give the users an understanding of what information is received by allowing them to digest in auditorily. This can be seen as a potential part of a concept called calm technologies, allowing users to keep one thing in the center of attention, while simultaneously monitoring others in t

Abstract:

College faculty members are often inadequately prepared to use technology in their classrooms. They often learn technology without institutional support, and without understanding technology's impact on student learning. As a result of these shortcomings, the use of technology in the college classroom is often not systematic or focused on improving learning. This study used a conceptual framework based on Wenger's learning community or community of practice idea.

Abstract:

A thesis report that investigates if there is a connection between the gamification attribute called Assessment and the learning outcome called Motivation. Furthermore, we investigate the existing research to find out what is the best way to go when you are putting togeather a Serious Game. This along with explainations of some common terms and concepts makes up the bulk of the report.

Abstract:

In our urban environment we are surrounded by strangers, observed via surveillance cameras and connected to millions via the global digital infrastructure. Our media is pervasive and immersive, implicit in everything we do, as the distinction between the real and virtual becomes increasing blurred. Whilst pervasive screens are becoming an essential personal tool, large format public screens form part of the furniture of our urban architecture. This study will ask how we can maximise opportunities for cultural engagement using urban screens and how this can impact on our culture. In the last te

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis is to develop web-based modules for enhancing instruction of the geometry sections of the Virginia Standards of Learning in the seventh and eighth grades. While all of Virginia's seventh and eighth grade Standards of Learning strands are certainly worthy of these types of modules, geometry appeals to me most because of the vast amount of web-based resources that will be valuable when organized into modules. It is my hope that teachers of these grades will find this useful in their instruction of geometry.

Abstract:

The main purpose of this paper’s research aims to evaluate the effectiveness of a Media Sharing Network (MSN) in building small businesses. The effectiveness is measured by means of raising the website traffic numbers. Due to its’ novelty, there is a lack of research on TikTok, creating a research gap requiring further investigation for this MSN. Therefore this social media is used as a tool for data collection for this paper’s investigation. In addition, the effectiveness of the various features is evaluated to identify the one most fit for the set task of raising brand awareness through MSNs

Abstract:

The purpose of this thesis was to find and implement an adaptive method, based on given data and hardware, for selecting different level-of-detail whilst preserving visual quality to the best extent possible. Another important aspect of the new method was that it had to be performance effective, since the target platform was an interactive direct volume rendering application. The project was targeted towards memory restricted systems in which it has previously been impossible to render large-scale volumetric datasets. The previous state of the target platform supports two detail levels: full a

Abstract:

Recent advancements in mobile phone technology have al- lowed mobile augmented reality (MAR) to become feasible. Today’s mobile phones have enough computing power to dis- play augmented reality content and new frameworks make MAR development more accessible. It is no surprise that one of the most popular areas of applications are city tours as this has been a target field since the early days of aug- mented reality (AR) [8]. Without altering the appearance of the city, virtual content can be placed to bring hidden information, such as the city’s history, closer to tourists. The most common cho

Abstract:

In a world that is moving towards more mobile viewing, and shorter ad formats –the filmmaker must adapt. A lot of advertisers now ask for video which is originally created for a longer format, to be adapted into a shorter format. But how much of the emotional impact is lost when adapting an emotionally based narrative commercial? This study aims to find out what the difference in emotional response is regarding different lengths of the same emotionally based narrative video. The author edited an already finished emotionally based narrative commercial video into two new, shorter versions. The p

Through our smartphones, the access to information is higher than ever before. Social media has revolutionized the communication landscape in how we share information and communicate to each other. Social media has significantly impacted marketing communication, therefore organizations in B2B are exploring and trying to identify ways in how to make a profitable use of social media. Despite this interest, there seems to be insufficient understanding of how to properly manage social media in the B2B context. Furthermore, branding and brand equity through social media communication creates opport

Abstract:

As datasets in general grow in size and complexity over time while the human cognitive ability to interpret said datasets essentially stays the same, it becomes important to enable intuitive visualization methods for analysis. Based on previous research in the field of information visualization and visual analytics, a dashboard visualization prototype handling real-time event based traffic was implemented and evaluated. The real-time data is collected by a script and sent to a self-implemented web server that opens up a websocket connection with the dashboard client where the data is then visu
