The Eureka project started as an artificial intelligence project we designed and built an expert system for Xerox field service technicians that would help them diagnose and solve machine problems, and which would run on their laptops.

We argue here that the unbiased solution proposed by Everett et al., however, is also biased, and under certain circumstances can also result in a serious underestimate of the FDR, especially at the protein level.

We describe a prototype system, Quadri, which answers questions about HIV treatment using the Stanford HIV Drug Resistance Database and other resources.

We describe ongoing research in using natural English text queries and automated deduction to obtain answers based on multiple structured data sources in a specific subject domain.

Abstract Transient photoconductivity measurements provide a definitive test to distinguish between geminate and non-geminate recombination in bulk heterojunction (BHJ) organic solar cells. We report the results of such measurements on BHJ solar cells fabricated with two different semiconducting polymers, and show that neither exhibits significant geminate recombination, for measurements at room temperature and 200K. The…

In this paper, we analyze factors influencing changes in privacy-related settings in the Google Buzz social network.

Abstract Brahms is an agent-based modeling and simulation environment a) for developing simulations of people, organizations, and objects such as tools, documents and systems and b) for designing, simulating and implementing multi-agent software systems. The Brahms environment includes an agent-oriented BDI-like language, a compiler and virtual machine for executing Brahms models, as well as a…

We quantify the degree of disorder in the – stacking direction of crystallites of a high performing semicrystalline semiconducting polymer.

We present capacity and delay scaling laws for random wireless ad hoc networks under all information dissemination modalities (unicast, multicast, broadcast and anycast) when nodes are endowed with multi-packet reception (MPR) capabilities.

This talk explains changes in worker attitudes and perspectives, evolutions of work practices, and adaptations in the organization of work as it is collaboratively achieved by configurations of people and technology.
