Challenges in enterprise search
ADC '04: Proceedings of the 15th Australasian database conference - Volume 27

Concerted research effort since the nineteen fifties has lead to effective methods for retrieval of relevant documents from homogeneous collections of text, such as newspaper archives, scientific abstracts and CD-ROM encyclopaedias. However, the triumph ...
Grand challenges in human-food interaction
Highlights
- Highlights increasing interest in combining interactive technology with food, called human-food interaction (HFI).
- Presents a set of next steps for human-food interaction (HFI) for a more fully developed HFI research agenda.

Abstract
There is an increasing interest in combining interactive technology with food, leading to a new research area called human-food interaction. While food experiences are increasingly benefiting from interactive technology, for example in the form ...
Post-silicon validation opportunities, challenges and recent advances
DAC '10: Proceedings of the 47th Design Automation Conference

Post-silicon validation is used to detect and fix bugs in integrated circuits and systems after manufacture. Due to sheer design complexity, it is nearly impossible to detect and fix all bugs before manufacture. Post-silicon validation is a major ...
