31032010 we bbt workshop assertiveness
The document discusses assertiveness and effective communication techniques. It defines different communication styles like passive, aggressive, and assertive. It then outlines Marshall Rosenberg's model of non-violent communication, which involves observing objectively, identifying feelings, expressing underlying needs, and making requests to have needs met. The document provides examples of feelings associated with satisfied and unsatisfied needs. It concludes by emphasizing self-evaluation after communicating to improve future interactions.
Tr@Ins7 Heterogeneous Access Daan Pareit
This document discusses interworking in a train network. It describes the use of Mobile IP (MIP) and Mobile Multi-Path SCTP (MMP-SCTP) for handover protocols between different wireless networks in a moving train. MMP-SCTP provides multihoming and built-in reliability, while MIP has a lower overhead but no multihoming. A policy decision function determines which interfaces to use based on factors like signal quality, location, and load balancing. Quality of service classes are mapped to outgoing links to prioritize applications like voice calls and crew communications.
Kathleen Heireman - Maple
BLCC presents on their Mobile Adaptive Personalised Learning Experience (Maple) project. BLCC is a business that provides language training to companies. They believe in mobile learning to make learning more flexible and accessible. Through Maple, BLCC explored how to develop an adaptive mobile learning system using tracking and logging data. This provided insights into user expectations. It resulted in two demonstrators, including one focusing on adaptive content selection and delivery based on a user's device. Next steps involve exploring new business models and content partnerships to further develop Maple.

Conditional Sentences
There are three main types of conditional patterns in conditional sentences: Pattern A is used for probable conditions, Pattern B is used for improbable conditions, and Pattern C is used for imaginary conditions. Pattern A uses present tense in the if-clause and future tense in the main clause. Pattern B uses past tense in the if-clause and would/should + verb in the main clause. Pattern C uses past perfect in the if-clause and perfect conditional ("would have" + past participle) in the main clause.
Grid07 4 Tzannetakis
This document discusses the role of grids in engineering simulation. It summarizes the key business challenges in manufacturing industries and how grids can help address them by enabling collaboration and optimizing processes. It provides an example from the automotive industry where grids reduced a simulation task from 22 hours to 1 hour. While grids provide opportunities, challenges remain around business models, legal frameworks, middleware standards, and deployment environments. The document argues that grids must move innovation beyond just applications to truly unlock their value through expanded use of applications.

Ecrea3h Shameen Mahmud Paper
This document discusses interactivity in online newspapers in Bangladesh. It finds that while Bangladeshi online newspapers have been available for over 10 years, they provide very limited interactive features and follow a traditional one-way information delivery model, despite the potential of the internet to enable more discussion and debate. In contrast, online portals created by the Bangladeshi diaspora tend to be more interactive. Over half the users of Bangladeshi online newspapers come from outside the country, mainly Bangladeshis living abroad. The document provides background information on internet usage and the large Bangladeshi expatriate population before analyzing specific online newspapers.
Brokerage 2007 presentation distributed

The DEUS project aims to develop an easy to deploy and use versatile wireless network infrastructure for dynamic environments. It identifies four network domains: a wireless backbone, wireless sensor networks, access points, and backend servers. The backbone mesh provides a secure, self-organizing transport network between components. Wireless sensor networks share features with the mesh but support multiple routing protocols. Global routing optimizes paths between sensors and connects different network domains in a transparent way. Access points deployed on the mesh provide seamless client mobility. The architectural concept forms the basis for DEUS proof of concept implementations across different use cases.
I Minds2009 Health Decision Support Prof Bart De Moor (Ibbt Esat Ku Leuven)

Crsm 1 2009 Andrea Lorelli Etsi Towards Standardization Of Cognitive Radio
This document discusses ETSI's work towards standardizing cognitive radio technologies. It provides background on ETSI as a standards organization and describes its RRS Technical Committee, which has four working groups studying different aspects of cognitive radio standardization. The working groups have produced several technical reports on topics like cognitive radio system concepts, spectrum usage, radio architectures, and applying cognitive radio to public safety networks. The document concludes that standardization is needed for cognitive radio to allow cooperation between stakeholders and improve spectrum efficiency, network capacity, and access to services.
iMinds-iLab.o, Open Innovation in ICT
The document discusses a living lab for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to involve users in the product development process from an early stage. Some key benefits mentioned include detecting unintended problems or opportunities through active user involvement, conducting multi-method research to enrich products academically, and allowing technologies to be domesticated by users rather than just consumed. The living lab offers services to SMEs to help fast track the process from ideation to demonstration through co-creation with various user types and extra funding and support opportunities.
Accio presentation closing event
This document discusses the iterative process of co-creating an ontology with stakeholders. Researchers conducted contextual inquiries through documentation analysis, observations, and interviews across multiple healthcare sites. Scenarios were developed and used in workshops with various stakeholders including medical professionals, engineers, and social scientists. The workshops introduced ontologies and involved role playing, decision making, and concept evaluation. A proof of concept was developed using a personal electronic device to demonstrate the ontology. The document reflects on further refining the process and developing the research.
PRoF+ Patient Room of the Future
PRoF is a living lab that builds very life-like environments using state-of-the-art products to enable early testing and concept validation. It provides an ecosystem for innovation and business across companies, academia, users, and care actors. PRoF has a long history of collaboration and has had a big impact on innovation in healthcare.
Results of the Apollon pilot in homecare and independent living
The document summarizes the results of the Apollon pilot project evaluating the use of living lab networks for testing homecare and independent living services across borders. The pilot involved transferring three such services between four living labs in different countries. A key finding was that a common cross-border ecosystem model for living labs in healthcare was not feasible due to differences between countries in areas like value networks, organization of healthcare, regulations, and infrastructure. However, living labs could still effectively serve as brokers and matchmakers to enable cross-border collaboration by addressing issues around stakeholders, access to users, liability, ethics, rules, and safety. Based on this pilot, the document advocates for a domain-specific network of smart care living labs to facilitate knowledge
