In the EU funded MARIO project, specific technological tools are adopted for people living with dementia (PLWD). final stage of a validation companion robot was performed from August to October 2017. The aims present study are: 1) illustrate key results and evidence obtained in evaluation phase project across three different pilot sites; 2) assess engagement dimensions PLWD who interacted robot; 3) acceptability efficacy on clinical, cognitive, neuropsychiatric, affective social aspects,...
The current study focuses on the short-term effect of MARIO, a social robot, quality life, depression, and perceived support in persons with dementia (PWD) evaluates their acceptability MARIO. Ten PWD one nursing home took part 4-week pilot study, where each participant had up to 12 sessions Sessions comprised engagement music, news, reminiscence, games, calendar applications. Standardized questionnaires were administered before after period. Participants sustained interest MARIO during...
Collective intelligence has emerged as a powerful mechanism to boost decision accuracy across many domains, such geopolitical forecasting, investment, and medical diagnostics. However, collective been mostly applied relatively simple tasks (e.g., binary classifications). Applications in more open-ended with much larger problem space, emergency management or general diagnostics, are largely lacking, due the challenge of integrating unstandardized inputs from different crowd members. Here, we...
This study aimed to identify and describe the fundamental characteristics of spoken dialogue systems, their role in supporting human-robot interaction enabling communication between socially assistive robots patients with dementia. First, this work provides an overview systems by considering underlying technologies, approaches, methods, general issues. Then, analysis focuses on studies, approaches that have investigated conversational agents elderly people dementia presenting results a...

The peer-to-peer communication paradigm is changing the way Internet works, and perspective network service providers are looking at telecommunication business. P2P applications networks taking foot by day, new systems proposed continuously with ever novel features better performances. In spite of attention success, however, there still a lack fundamental analysis understanding elementary properties these systems. this paper we consider class protocols suitable both for content delivery...
P2P video streaming is receiving enormous attention, and when involved, the efficient use of network becomes a very important issue, specially if live applications are addressed. In this work we study properties Push/Pull protocols for exchange chunks in non-structured systems. broad class chunk mechanisms where peers alternate phases they actively send to other peers, with seek missing from peers. We focus on protocol, trying gain insight distributed mechanism itself. Then, explore how...
It is well known that Deng Xiaoping made his first steps in post– Cultural Revolution strategy during a time of fierce controversy with Mao Zedong 1975–1976. Recent analyses have introduced some new elements afford us better understanding biennium as key passage China after the Revolution. However, most singular feature dispute between and Deng, its theoretical-political content, remains unexplored or largely ignored. This article reviews major issues at stake dispute, which was launched by...
Process Management Systems (PMSs, a.k.a. Workflow - WfMSs) are currently more and used as a supporting tool to coordinate the enactment of processes. In real world scenarios, environment may change in unexpected ways so prevent process from being successfully c
In the healthcare domain, a wide range of processes with different characteristics and requirements are executed, ranging from highly standardised procedures to less structured ones that reflect knowledge-intensive nature clinical decision making. Healthcare is thus widely recognised as one most promising, yet challenging, domains for adoption process-oriented models solutions able support organisational processes. this paper, we provide an up-to-date overview presents discusses application...

Abstract This dialogue develops a series of reflections on contemporary Chinese politics starting from Wang Hui's analysis the role that repression spring 1989 movement played in acceleration China's neoliberalist economic policies, and more general about peculiar forms intervention party-state implementation capitalist economy. Four major issues are discussed: some probings political value Tiananmen movement; suppression agricultural people's communes; parallel transformation industrial...
Providing operational support to clinicians during their daily activities in hospital wards is a challenge for information technologies. In particular, solutions should provide very usable user interfaces, possibly deployed on mobile devices, and be able enact monitor the execution of clinical guidelines. this paper, we present preliminary outcomes TESTMED project, small project which vocal touch interfaces are being experimented as viable solution clinicians' interaction with system,...
