Context: Quality of Experience (QoE) enables the description of user perceptions about the performance of a particular application or service. In the mobile computing context, it is an important measure for service providers ...

Inrobotic mapping and simultaneous localization and mapping, the ability to assess the quality of estimated maps is crucial. While concepts exist for quantifying the error in the estimated trajectory of a robot, or a ...

In practice marketing can and should play an important role in mobile applications when formulating marketing strategies. The aim of this article is to identify the main KPIs to measure the effect of marketing strategies ...

The structure and constraint of MANETS influence negatively the performance of QoS, moreover the main routing protocols proposed generally operate in flat routing. Hence, this structure gives the bad results of QoS when ...

The purpose of this paper is to define and develop a metric to estimate the selective visual attention (SVA) of an operator that teleoperates a mobile robot. Perception is the first stage of Situation Awareness which is ...

In teleoperation of mobile robots the operator is remotely located. As a result, generally the human perception of the remote environment is distorted affecting the mission negatively. Visual information can be degraded ...

Software metrics provide means to quantify several attributes of software systems. The effective measurement is dependent on appropriate metric thresholds as they allow characterizing the quality of software systems. Indeed, ...

Wireless mesh networks, WMNs, are networks with the ability to self-form, self-configure, and self-repair. These features were inherited from the ad-hoc mobile networks, MANETs. However, WMNs appear as an alternative to ...
