RCV1: A new benchmark collection for text categorization research

by David D. Lewis, Yiming Yang, Tony G. Rose, Fan Li - JOURNAL OF MACHINE LEARNING RESEARCH , 2004
"... Reuters Corpus Volume I (RCV1) is an archive of over 800,000 manually categorized newswire stories recently made available by Reuters, Ltd. for research purposes. Use of this data for research on text categorization requires a detailed understanding of the real world constraints under which the data ..."

errorful data. We refer to the original data as RCV1-v1, and the corrected data as RCV1-v2. We benchmark several widely used supervised learning methods on RCV1-v2, illustrating the collection’s properties, suggesting new directions for research, and providing baseline results for future studies. We make

Pervasive Computing: Vision and Challenges

by M. Satyanarayanan - IEEE Personal Communications , 2001
"... This paper discusses the challenges in computer systems research posed by the emerging field of pervasive computing. It first examines the relationship of this new field to its predecessors: distributed systems and mobile computing. It then identifies four new research thrusts: effective use of smar ..."

Telos: Enabling Ultra-Low Power Wireless Research

by Joseph Polastre , Robert Szewczyk , David Culler , 2005
"... We present Telos, an ultra low power wireless sensor module (“mote”) for research and experimentation. Telos is the latest in a line of motes developed by UC Berkeley to enable wireless sensor network (WSN) research. It is a new mote design built from scratch based on experiences with previous mote ..."

A survey of context-aware mobile computing research

by Guanling Chen, David Kotz , 2000
"... Context-aware computing is a mobile computing paradigm in which applications can discover and take advantage of contextual information (such as user location, time of day, nearby people and devices, and user activity). Since it was proposed about a decade ago, many researchers have studied this topi ..."

this topic and built several context-aware applications to demonstrate the usefulness of this new technology. Context-aware applications (or the system infrastructure to support them), however, have never been widely available to everyday users. In this survey of research on context-aware systems

A New Location Technique for the Active Office

by Andy Ward, Alan Jones , 1997
"... Configuration of the computing and communications systems found at home and in the workplace is a complex task that currently requires the attention of the user. Recently, researchers have begun to examine computers that would autonomously change their functionality based on observations of who or ..."

Intrinsic and extrinsic motivations: Classic definitions and new directions.

by Richard M Ryan , Edward L Deci - Contemporary Educational Psychology, , 2000
"... Intrinsic and extrinsic types of motivation have been widely studied, and the distinction between them has shed important light on both developmental and educational practices. In this review we revisit the classic definitions of intrinsic and extrinsic motivation in light of contemporary research ..."

RSVP: A New Resource Reservation Protocol

by Lixia Zhang, Stephen Deering, Deborah Estrin, Scott Shenker, et al. , 1993
"... Whe origin of the RSVP protocol can be traced back to 1991, when a team of network researchers, including myself, started playing with a number of packet scheduling algorithms on the DARTNET (DARPA Testbed NETwork), a network testbed made of open source, workstation-based routers. Because scheduling ..."

Virtual clock: A new traffic control algorithm for packet switching networks

by Lixia Zhang - In Proc. ACM SIGCOMM , 1990
"... A challenging research issue in high speed networking is how to control the transmission rate of statistical data P OWS. This paper describes a new algorithm, Virtual-Clock, for data trafic control in high-speed networks. VirtualClock maintains the statistical multiplexing flexibility of packet swit ..."

UCSF Chimera—a visualization system for exploratory research and analysis

by Eric F. Pettersen, Thomas D. Goddard, Conrad C. Huang, Gregory S. Couch, Daniel M. Greenblatt, Elaine C. Meng, Thomas E. Ferrin - J. Comput. Chem , 2004
"... Abstract: The design, implementation, and capabilities of an extensible visualization system, UCSF Chimera, are discussed. Chimera is segmented into a core that provides basic services and visualization, and extensions that provide most higher level functionality. This architecture ensures that the ..."

that the extension mechanism satisfies the demands of outside developers who wish to incorporate new features. Two unusual extensions are presented: Multiscale, which adds the ability to visualize large-scale molecular assemblies such as viral coats, and Collaboratory, which allows researchers to share a Chimera

Sequence Logos: A New Way to Display Consensus Sequences

by homas D. Schneider, Thomas D. Schneider, R. Michael Stephens - Nucleic Acids Res , 1990
"... INTRODUCTION A logo is "a single piece of type bearing two or more usually separate elements" [1]. In this paper, we use logos to display aligned sets of sequences. Sequence logos concentrate the following information into a single graphic [2]: 1. The general consensus of the sequences. ..."
