New Routes to HCI - A transdisciplinary approach
… helps elucidate the human computer interaction(HCI) debate. It chooses transdisciplinarity as the methodology best able to mobilize new ideas and generate a different approach to HCI, one that will develop fresh insights and produce critical ways of thinking about the problems of contemporary …

HCI gesture tracking using wearable passive tags
In this thesis. a wearable system is developed to track hand gestures with passive RFID sensor tags. This system was composed of an ultra-high frequency reader and small, passive, finger-worn tags powered by scavenged RFID energy equipped with a variety of sensors that could be used to detect …

New HCI techniques for better living through technology
In the Human Computer Interaction community, researchers work on many projects that investigate the efficacy of new technologies for better living, but unlike other research fields, these researchers must have an approach that is typically multi-disciplinary. Technology is always developing thus …

Creating an Interactive Learning Environment with Reusable HCI Knowledge
… environment for Human Computer Interaction (HCI) to facilitate access to, and learning of, important design knowledge. By encapsulating HCI knowledge into reusable claims stored in a knowledge repository, or claims library, this learning environment aims at allowing students to effectively …

An Empirical Exploration of Countermeasures in HCI-Based Deception Research
… this theory-based framework in the context of an HCI-based deception detection system based on tracking mouse movements and Attentional Control Theory (ACT) in an empirical experiment. The experiment was designed to learn more about what happens when users are aware they are being monitored and …

IN VITRO ΚΑΙ IN VIVO ΜΕΛΕΤΗ ΤΗΣ ΑΠΟΔΕΣΜΕΥΣΗΣ ΤΗΣ ΘΕΟΦΥΛΛΙΝΗΣ, HCI - ΜΕΘΑΔΟΝΗΣ, HCI - ΠΡΟΠΟΞΥΦΑΙΝΗΣ, ΝΙΦΕΔΙΠΙΝΗΣ ΚΑΙ 2HCI - ΥΔΡΟΞΥΖΙΝΗΣ ΑΠΟ ΔΙΑΦΟΡΕΣ ΣΤΕΡΕΕΣ ΚΑΙ ΗΜΙΣΤΕΡΕΕΣ ΦΑΡΜΑΚΟΤΕΧΝΙΚΕΣ ΜΟΡΦΕΣ
THIS PH.D THESIS DEALS WITH THE STUDY OF SOME PHYSICOCHEMICAL AND FORMULATING FACTORS THAT AFFECT THE DRUG RELEASE FROM SOLID (ORAL) AND SEMI-SOLID (TOPICAL) DOSAGE FORMS. REGARDING THE SOLID FORMS THESE FACTORS WERE EXAMINED WITH CONVENTIONAL TABLETS AND WITH SUSTAINED RELEASE FORMULATIONS. IN THE …

Towards an activity-oriented design method for HCI research and practice
… the field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI), this situation led to a search for appropriate theories for conceptualising these design concerns. Whilst Activity Theory has been identified as a suitable framework for conceptualising these user perspectives, the lack of a standard …

A transdisciplinary study of embodiment in HCI, AI and New Media.
… agents in human¿computer interaction (HCI) in a learning context using a comparative meta-analysis. Meta-analysis was applied because most of the studies for evaluating embodiment are experimental. A learning context was selected because the number of studies is suitable for …

A Bayesian Fusion Approach and Its Application to Integrating Audio and Visual Signals in HCI
Finally, kernel canonical correlation analysis (CCA) is developed to model nonlinear or high-order correlations between signals from two sources. Kernel CCA uses kernel principal component analysis (PCA), which elegantly combines a nonlinear transformation and linear PCA into a one-step …

Developing HCI technology to aid in communication research for individuals with impairments: a language and linguistic perspective
… Specifically, this work will examine how HCI and CS techniques can impact language development , empathy and the role communication impairment has on linguistic patterns and conversation quality. Each of these broad themes (language development, linguistic patterns, and …

Music education software : an HCI evaluation of existing software and prototype implementation of an ear training programme based on a proposed approach
… research paper uses Human Computer Interaction(HCI) evaluation methods, namely questionnaires and interviews, to obtain information about the kind of music software currently in common use in music departments, and the level of satisfaction of the students with this software. The evaluation …

Digital technologies and environmental change : examining the influence of social practices and public policies
… repairers and human-computer interaction (HCI) academics— two communities whose practices influence the footprint of digital technologies—as well as environmental public policies that influence HCI practitioners. By drawing on secondary data and semi-structured qualitative interviews with 7 …

The effect of oxidative stress in lymphocytes from patients with inflammatory bowel disease and various cancer states compared with healthy control individuals.
… lymphocytes from healthy control individuals (HCI) treated in the same way and measured in the Comet assay. For inflammatory bowel disease, patient¿s responses in IBD patients treated with H2O2 were higher than in HCI and crohn¿s patients (CD) were found to have higher responses than Ulcerative …

Affective Design In Technical Communication
Traditional human-computer interaction (HCI) is based on 'cold' models of user cognition; that is, models of users as purely rational beings based on the information processing metaphor; however, an emerging perspective suggests that for the field of HCI to mature, its practitioners must adopt …

Representing the user: a sociological study of the discourse of human computer interaction
The discipline of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) was established in the early 1980's on the foundations of cognitive psychology, computer science and ergonomics. In recent years however, claims have been made for the relevance of forms of sociology to this avowedly multidisciplinary field, and a …

Experimental Analysis on Aging of Integrated Circuits
… instability (NBTI), hot carrier injection (HCI), time dependent dielectric breakdown (TDDB), and electromigration (EM) are coming up as potential threats to superior performance in the field. All these reliability issues cause intermittent failures and finally cause the performance of the …

Rover@Home : computer mediated remote interaction between humans and dogs
… significant because by systematically applying HCI design principles to non-humans, we include animals in the HCI community. This creates an opportunity for the evaluation of the generality of much HCI literature, as well as increasing the sources from which we can draw inspiration.
