abstract = {<p>Since the power consumption of different electrical appliances in a household can be recorded by individual smart meters, it becomes possible to start considering in more detail the interactions of the residents with those devices throughout the day. Appliancestextquoteright usages should not be considered as independent events, but rather as enablers for activities. Leveraging activity knowledge over time will allow us to design personalized energy efficient measures. We envision the design of future ambient intelligence systems, where the smart home can optimize the energy consumption in regards to the lifestyles of its residents and the smart gridtextquoterights needs. In this work, we propose an automated method for determining when an electrical device is triggered by householdstextquoteright residents solely from its power trace. Knowing when an appliance is in use is required for identifying recurrent patterns that could later be understood as activities.</p>},

abstract = {<p>While tasks such as segmenting images or determining the sentiment expressed in a sentence can be assigned to regular users, some others require background knowledge and thus, the selection of expert users. In the case of energy datasets, acquiring data represents an obstacle to develop data-driven methods, due to prohibitive monetary and time costs linked to the instrumentation of households in order to monitor the energy consumption. More so, most datasets only contain pure power time series, despite labels being required to determine when a device is in use from when it is idle (incurring stand-by consumption or being off), and by extension to separate human activities triggering the consumption from the baseline consumption. We build upon our Collaborative Annotation Framework for Energy Datasets (CAFED) to evaluate and distinguish the performance of expert users against that of regular users. Through a user study with curated benchmark annotation tasks, we provide data-driven and efficient techniques to detect weak and adversarial workers and promote users when the contributorstextquoteright user-base is limited. Additionally, we show that if carefully selected, the seed gold standard tasks can be reduced to a small number of tasks that are representative enough to determine the usertextquoterights expertise and predict crowd-combined annotations with high precision.</p>},

abstract = {<p>Attaining energy efficiency requires understanding human behaviors triggering energy consumption within households. In conjunction to providing appliance-level feedback, targeting human activities that involve the usage of electrical appliances can provide a higher abstraction level to bring awareness to the electricity wastage. In this paper, we make use of a large dataset with appliance- and circuit-level power data and provide a framework for determining temporal sequential association rules. Sequences of time intervals where the appliances are in usage can vary in their order, duration and the time elapsed between these events. Our contribution consists in providing a full pipeline for mining frequent sequential itemsets and a novel way to discover the time windows during which these sequences of events occur and to capture their variance in terms of duration and order. Our method is data-driven and relies on the datatextquoterights statistical properties and allows us to avoid an exhaustive search for the time windowstextquoteright sizes, by relying instead on machine learning techniques to identify and predict those time windows.</p>},

Traditional cinema offers an immersive experience through surround sound technology and high definition screens. However, in 360textordmasculine IVR the audience is in the middle of the action, everything is happening around them. The immersiveness and freedom of choice brings new challenges into narrative creation, hence the need for a tool to help the process of evaluating user experience.

abstract = {<p>The development of Web-based Information Systems is crucial in the quest to maintain and develop the enterprise competiveness. However, capturing requirements from Business Processes (BP) is still an issue, as existing methods mostly focus, or on human aspects and the user interface, or on business concerns as rules and workflow coordination, and therefore do not specify all the Software Architectural components which are relevant for software development. We present the Goals Approach, which analyzes BPs and User Tasks and details them in the process of methodically designing and structuring the User Interface, the Business Logic and the Database of the Information System given a Model-View-Controller (MVC) architectural pattern. In this paper we focus on how to obtain the Goals business model of requirements based on the DEMO method. The approach can be used for in-house software development, and the method is straightforward fitting Small and Medium Enterprises agility needs.</p>},

abstract = {<p>Cloud services are changing the software development context and are expected to increase dramatically in the forthcoming years. Within the cloud context, platform-as-a-service tools emerge as an important segment with an expected yearly growth between 25 to 50 % in the next decade. These tools enable businesses to design and deploy new applications easily, thereby reducing operational expenses and time to market. This is increasingly important due to the lack of professional developers and it also raises a long standing issue in computer-aided software engineering: the need for easy to learn (low-threshold), functional (high-ceiling) tools enabling non-experts to create and adapt new cloud services. Despite their importance and impact, no research to date addressed the measurement of toolstextquoteright ceiling and threshold. In this paper we describe a first attempt to advance the state of the art in this area through an in-depth usability study of platform-as-a-service tools in terms of their threshold (learnability) and ceiling (functionality). The measured learnability issues evidenced a strong positive correlation with usability defects and a weaker correlation with performance. Remarkably, the fastest and easiest to use and learn tool falls into the low-threshold/low-ceiling pattern.</p>},
