The teaching and learning of architectural heritage can play a vital role in engaging students in envisioning the past and nurturing their cultural identity. However, this endeavour often faces challenges stemming from limited access to heritage sites and ...

Emerging Zoned Namespace (ZNS) provides hosts with fine-grained, performance-predictable storage management. ZNS organizes the address space into zones composed of fixed-size, sequentially written, non-overwritable blocks, making it suitable for log-...

Federated learning (FL) is a promising technique for resolving the rising privacy and security concerns. Its main ingredient is to cooperatively learn the model among the distributed clients without uploading any sensitive data. In this article, we ...

In consortium applications, multiple organizations collaborate on a common goal. The complex consortium structure makes it a significant challenge to achieve the goals of both secure collaboration and preserving each organization's data confidentiality. ...

The implementation of government information systems has been a means to improve social, political, and economic conditions and the quality of life of its citizens. However, the systems of the governments are very different and even within a country ...

Simulations have long been part of hardware-centric system domains. Similarly, architecture design is a common practice for complex industrial systems, which comprise many components that can be arranged in different layouts according to given ...

This study explores a cross-regional teaching resource sharing solution based on Hadoop architecture, aiming to solve the current problem of uneven distribution of educational resources. First, the challenges of existing resource sharing solutions in ...

A calculus for the specification and verification of distributed concurrent interactive real-time systems is introduced. Systems are specified by their interface behavior formalized by interface predicates and interface assertions. System designs in terms ...

This contribution stems from research on the enhancement of museum houses through the use of augmented reality, specifically expanding the modes of viewing a space. This study involves an interdisciplinary relationship between architecture and ...

Data breaches and cyberattacks in healthcare pose substantial risks to patient information privacy, financial integrity, and institutional reputation. During rapid digitalization, the healthcare infrastructure in the Philippines faces similar ...

Virtual reality (VR) space renovation considers designing co-located virtual spaces while accounting for constraints imposed by the physical space. Such design presents distinctive challenges and differs from designing for a physical space, as physical ...

Coarse-grained reconfigurable arrays (CGRAs) are programmable hardware platforms that are a means of realizing application accelerators. A CGRA is a 2D array of configurable processing elements (PEs), that connect to one another through programmable ...

Ambient Intelligence (AmI) focuses on creating environments capable of proactively and transparently adapting to users and their activities. Traditionally, AmI focused on the availability of computational devices, the pervasiveness of networked ...

Interior design aims to create aesthetically pleasing and functional environments within an architectural space. For a simple room, the preliminary design exploration currently takes multiple meetings and days of work for interior designers to ...

Authorization mechanisms are essential for securing microservice-based applications, with Attribute Based Access Control (ABAC) being a prominent choice for fine-grained authorization. A decentralized authorization mechanism allows the transfer of ...

The notion of atmosphere has taken prominence in contemporary architecture discourse, in which it is used mainly to denote the affective characteristic of inhabitable spaces. In this paper, we employ the ecological-enactive approach to cognition to ...

As automation increases qualitatively and quantitatively in safety-critical human cyber-physical systems, it is becoming more and more challenging to increase the probability or ensure that human operators still perceive key artifacts and comprehend their ...

We propose a reference architecture of safety-critical or industry-critical human cyber-physical systems (CPSs) capable of expressing essential classes of system-level interactions between CPS and humans relevant for the societal acceptance of such ...

Given the stringent requirements of energy efficiency for Internet-of-Things edge devices, approximate multipliers, as a basic component of many processors and accelerators, have been constantly proposed and studied for decades, especially in error-...

Adversarial training suffers from poor effectiveness due to the challenging optimisation of loss with hard labels. To address this issue, adversarial distillation has emerged as a potential solution, encouraging target models to mimic the output ...

The authors’ method allows the target model to distill the most instant robust and non‐robust knowledge from the previous iteration. To avoid storing model parameters to generate AEs, an existing self‐distillation algorithm was extended, making each “...
