Virtual tours in museums are an ideal solution for those that not able to visit a museum or who want have small taste of what is presented the before their visit. However, these often encounter severe problems while users interact with them. In order check status virtual museums, we present implementation evaluation experiment uses combination two multi-criteria decision making theories, namely analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and fuzzy technique preference by similarity (TOPSIS). AHP has...

The evaluation of cultural websites is a complicated procedure that depends on several criteria. main contribution this paper showing how process may be implemented. For reason, different multi-criteria decision-making methods are combined and compared for processing the results evaluation. More specifically, provides criteria evaluating website heritage presents application Analytical Hierarchy Process estimating weights Then, it compares two models, fuzzy simple additive weighting weighted...

The present study discusses the design and development of a digital repository for preservation dissemination cultural natural heritage Zakynthos Island (Greece). Following crowdsourcing approach, platform allows users to actively contribute its content while aiming integrate scattered information from other relative initiatives. is based on popular Content Management System (CMS) provide core functionality, extended with use CMS’s API additional, personalized functionality end-users, such...

The rich history of the olive tree is deeply connected to heritage Mediterranean region. There are trees that still productive and their age has been calculated by use methods increment core sampling, radiocarbon dating (C14) luminescence (OSL) be over two thousand years old. However, these not usually known it easy calculate. As a result, deciding whether an monumental rather complicated task. goal this paper present design implementation intelligent system uses multi-criteria...

The quality of content and the attractiveness an environmental website can create environmentally friendly attitude before one visits a secured area. However, should be evaluated to ensure that its goal is met. For this reason, websites have been using combination AHP PROMETHEE II. More specifically, selected are national parks Italy. main contribution particular paper on comparing II with three other common MCDM models (SAW, WPM, TOPSIS) performing sensitivity analysis make comparison more...

AbstractEducation for sustainability refers to educational policies that focus on shaping a sustainable future. Mobile learning software the use of mobile applications through smart devices promoting online learning. However, effectiveness such in depends users' intention adopt it. While there is growing interest using technology education, empirical evidence how personalized can influence attitudes and behaviors toward practices limited. Thus, this study investigates factors affect...

This paper examines the utility of a multiple attribute decision making method, Simple Additive Weighting (SAW), for purposes an Intelligent Learning Environment (ILE) that provides adults with personalised e-learning. The ILE is called Web Trainer and meant to help novice users learn how manipulate file store their personal computer. generation advice makes use adaptive hypermedia techniques adapted each individual learner's needs, depending on knowledge level, age, habits difficulties. SAW...

The role of museums is very important in cultural and heritage tourism, a museum website plays an attracting visitors, both physically online. Therefore, these websites must be evaluated to ensure that their goals are met. However, the evaluation complex often omitted during website's life cycle, despite its importance. To simplify this process, paper presents framework for evaluating websites. framework, based on inspection method, called method (IEM). This uses criteria proposed by several...

Structural health monitoring (SHM) in historical buildings can be achieved through systems that rely on Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Such have the ability to acquire information fast and reliably, making them ideal for SHM applications. Historical buildings, having been exposed wear of time, are especially sensitive any kind intervention. As a result, keeping as intact possible is critical factor their integrity. In current work, low-cost WSN system synchronization algorithm developed...

Environmental awareness refers to the understanding of importance protecting natural environment. Digital technologies can play an important role in raising environmental issues. In view this compelling need, paper presents a novel way promote with use smartphones. To achieve this, it employs personalization techniques, and specifically Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) PROMETHEE II. more detail, mobile application incorporates user model that holds information, such as location (city,...

The current study aims at monitoring, measuring and evaluating the 'Safe havens for wild birds' campaign, implemented within framework of LIFE programme, in Greece more specifically Ionian Islands. detects attitude changes that occurred three target groups (pupils, local hunters residents) on islands where phenomenon illegal spring killing is intense. A questionnaire-based survey was conducted two phases, just before launch (2013) after completion campaign (2015), to enable a comparison...

Towards building a multimodal affect recognition system, we have built facial expression system and audio-lingual system. In this paper, present discuss the development evaluation process of two subsystems, concerning emotions from visual-facial modalities. Many researchers agree that these modalities are complementary to each other combination can improve accuracy in affective user models. Therefore paper modes using multi-criteria decision making theories. The resulted takes advantage...

In this paper, we present and discuss a novel approach for the integration of audio-lingual visual-facial modalities in bi-modal user interface affect recognition. As it is widely acknowledged, two or more interaction can provide complementary information to each other with respect However, satisfactory progress has not yet been achieved towards these modalities, since problem combining them effectively quite complicated. our research, combine from perspective human observer by employing...

This paper presents the development of a new Web based LiDAR (Light Detection And Ranging) 3D point cloud viewer addressing mobility and portability issues arising from remote field applications by numerous multidisciplinary collaborative scientists. Browser-based viewer, hereafter called 3DSYSTEK was developed implemented in framework the3DSYSTEK research programme that aimed to develop tools bring together all disciplines working promote our cultural heritage through laser scanning,...

This article is about a graphical user interface (GUI) that provides intelligent help to users. The GUI called IFM (Intelligent File Manipulator). monitors users while they work; if has made mistake with respect his or her hypothesized intentions, then intervenes automatically and offers advice. two underlying reasoning mechanisms: One based on an adaptation of cognitive theory human plausible the other one performs goal recognition effects users' commands. requirement analysis system been...

This paper describes the adaptation of a cognitive theory, called Human Plausible Reasoning (HPR), for purposes an intelligent graphical user interface (GUI). The GUI is file manipulator (IFM) and manages files folders in similar way as Windows 98/NT Explorer. However, IFM also incorporates intelligence, which aims at rendering interaction more human-like than standard explorer terms assistance to users' errors. constantly reasons about actions, goals, plans, possible errors, offers...

Educators in the field of Environmental Education often have difficulty identifying and selecting programs that potential to best maximize needed resources implement achieve desired outcomes. This is, part, due their lack expertise evaluation knowledge practice. The use multi-criteria decision-making models evaluating environmental education is new and, as a result, not many been used tested specific domain. Comparisons implemented various domains but for programs’ evaluation. Therefore, we...
