Abstract With the development of computer network technology, the means of foreign language teaching have changed. Computer aided spoken English test is a new test method, and there is a great advantage compared with the traditional oral test. In order to further understand the superiority of the computer aided spoken English test, this study took the sophomores of Foreign Language Department in Henan University of Chinese Medicine, China, as the subjects and carried out the traditional interview-type spoken English test and computer-assisted spoken English test. The score system based on Hidden Markov Model (HMM) was used, and then the two tests… More >

Abstract In this paper we present a qualitative spatial relation formalism capable to represent spatio-temporal knowledge. To this aim, we have added the notion of time within the formalisation of spatial relations in order to describe moving graphical objects. As a case study, we exploited this augmented formalism to support a qualitative specification of gestures, which are an increasingly relevant issue in the human-computer interaction field. The resulting technique provides gesture specification with a systematic and formal foundation. More >

Abstract This study proposes an efficient algorithm for improving flattening result of triangular mesh surface patches having a convex shape. The proposed approach, based on barycentric mapping technique, incorporates a dynamic virtual boundary, which considerably improves initial mapping result. The dynamic virtual boundary approach is utilized to reduce the distortions for the triangles near the boundary caused by the nature of convex combination technique. Mapping results of the proposed algorithm and the base technique are compared by area and shape accuracy metrics measured for several sample surfaces. The results prove the success of the proposed approach with respect to the base… More >

Abstract The cloud computing paradigm facilitates a finite pool of on-demand virtualized resources on a pay-per-use basis. For large-scale heterogeneous distributed systems like a cloud, scheduling is an essential component of resource management at the application layer as well as at the virtualization layer in order to deliver the optimal Quality of Services (QoS). The cloud scheduling, in general, is an NP-hard problem due to large solution space, thus, it is difficult to find an optimal solution within a reasonable time. In application layer scheduling, the tasks are mapped to logical resources (i.e., virtual machines), aiming to optimize one or more… More >
