Finding their way: How public library users wayfind
2013
Library & Information Science Research
discuss their views on wayfinding in the Library; and an expert review with library staff and a library wayfinding and signage expert to validate research findings. ...
A multi-method case study research design, guided by Passini's conceptual framework of wayfinding, was employed to investigate library user wayfinding behavior within the entry area of a medium-sized public ...
While such research has occurred in academic libaries, public library users differ from academic library users in important ways, such as being a more heterogenous population comprised of people of varying ...

Realizing an Open Ubiquitous Environment in a RESTful Way
2008
2008 IEEE International Conference on Web Services
Web services have been widely used to support context-aware applications for context information retrieval in a ubiquitous environment. ...
We also discuss an example context-aware application developed for the environment and show how REST style services can contribute in moving ubiquitous computing technologies into the real world. ...

Optimizing Multi-Way Spatial Joins of Web Feature Services
2017
ISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information
In a heterogeneous GIS application, a user can issue a query that relates two or more spatial datasets at different WFS servers. ...
In this paper, we examine the problems of multi-way spatial joins of WFSs, and we present a client-side optimization approach to generate good execution plans for such queries. ...
In heterogeneous spatial data applications, the answers to some queries may often involve integrating and analyzing data from a number of services [10] [11] [12] . ...

Genomics and proteomics—the way forward
2005
Annals of Oncology
Secondly, it is not always easy to select the way forward in Genomics and Proteomics. Therefore emerging technologies are updated and the hallmarks of cancer cells briefly discussed. ...
This will only increase in the future when more will become known about proteins, which not only outnumber the genes, but also can be functionally altered in various ways. ...
One may ask, how do we grasp this unfolding knowledge? This article will attempt to give a short overview of where we are and how the way forward might be chosen. ...

Towards a Novel Way to Predict Deficits After a Brain Lesion: A Stroke Example
2019
2019 IEEE 19th International Conference on Bioinformatics and Bioengineering (BIBE)
The aim of the present study is the development of a user-friendly desktop application to predict the induced cognitive deficits in patients who have suffered a brain lesion. ...
In addition, we have embedded two types of visualization methods: One to present the slices of the brain mask and another to show the 3D volume of the mask into 3D semitransparent human brain. ...

MilkyWay@home: Harnessing volunteer computers to constrain dark matter in the Milky Way
2013
Proceedings of the International Astronomical Union
AbstractMilkyWay@home is a volunteer computing project that allows people from every country in the world to volunteer their otherwise idle processors to Milky Way research. ...
We will add additional spatial dimensions as well as kinematic measures in a piecemeal fashion, with the eventual goal of fitting the orbit and parameters of the Milky Way potential (and thus the density ...
The result is stored in a database, and another work unit (with a new set of parameters to try) is sent out. ...

HydroBlocks v0.2: enabling a field-scale two-way coupling between the land surface and river networks in Earth system models
2021
Geoscientific Model Development
The results show (1) the implementation of the two-way coupling between the land surface and the river network leads to appreciable differences in the simulated spatial heterogeneity of the surface energy ...
The resulting routing scheme provides an effective and efficient path forward to enable a two-way coupling between the high-resolution river networks and state-of-the-art tiling schemes in ESMs. ...
We would like to dedicate this article to Peter Metcalfe, who passed away due to a climbing accident in 2018. Peter's help in developing the original HydroBlocks model was instrumental. ...

Toward Information Infrastructure Studies: Ways of Knowing in a Networked Environment
[chapter]
2009
International Handbook of Internet Research
We move from a definition of infrastructure to the exploration of a historical context for its development. ...
Introduction It is rare enough in human history that fundamentally new ways of working are developed, which changed the way in which information was gathered, processed, stored, and reused. ...
We show in Fig. 1 how their definitions can be ordered along two axes, one explicitly non-spatial and the other spatial: the social/technical and the individual/group or local/global. ...
