Technology-mediated social-participation systems, such as Wikipedia and TopCoder, allow a vast user base to collaborate to solve difficult problems.

Our main contribution is that we have integrated models from previous work in sensemaking and information seeking behavior to present a canonical social model of user activities before, during, and after a search episode, suggesting where in the search process both explicitly and implicitly shared information may be valuable to individual searchers.

Using research from several fields, we can learn how to design better TMSP systems and to better integrate lessons learned in practice back into theory.

We have demonstrated, prototyped, and benchmarked against commercial systems a new optical detection approach that delivers high signal-to-noise discrimination without complex optics or bulky excitation sources.

Inkjet printing was used to pattern ferroelectric field effect transistors (feFETs) and addressing thin film transistors (TFTs).

This paper offers a systematic approach to NPI licensing in temporal clauses based on a uniform analysis of temporal connectives as relations between times and relying on appropriate type shifting for compositional build-up.

Our goal in this paper is to document the methods and outcomes of using social resources to help with exploratory search tasks.

These symposia explore a common theme of how biological and soft material properties may be harnessed to build new structural features or elicit useful structural responses, either to understand the fundamental chemistry and mechanical principles, or to design practical sensors and metrology tools.

This technical document is a tutorial meant for novice users of FST who are familiar with the basic finite-state tool, publicly available XFST, documented in the 2003 Beesley & Karttunen book on “Finite State Morphology” but who are not yet familiar with the additional capabilities of FST, the PARC-internal version, such as speed/size optimization and…

The guest editors see the potential of TMSP systems to revolutionize personal communications, organizational work life, and online communities.

In this report, the fabrication of inkjet-printed complementary organic inverters was demonstrated.
