Their vision for an architecture able to provide instant services, automation and comfort, through cybernetic interfaces and robotized systems, seems to meet today the Ambient Intelligence (AmI) vision, applied in the so-called intelligent environments (IEs). Although outside the architecture discipline, these applications are able to proactively enhance and cater for people's life and needs either through autonomous/adaptive or user-driven control. This paper examines analogies and dissimilarities between Archigram's work and IEs looking at both their intentions and projects. It is argued that mainstream intelligent environments involve a functionalist flexibility paradigm, unlike Archigram's proposals. On the other hand, alternative types of intelligent environments, i.e. the so-called user-driven, seem to near Archigram's vision for indeterminately flexible spaces. Yet, the apparent potential of Archigram's experimental projects and hardware, especially those that are kinetically driven, is far from that vision and the capacities of user-driven IEs. The paper further examines contemporary attempts to combine user-driven control, indeterminacy and kinetics in architecture concluding that, apart from research in engineering systems and novel materials, conceptual guidelines toward this end are also needed.","PeriodicalId":207140,"journal":{"name":"2011 Seventh International Conference on Intelligent Environments","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126149383","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The saturation of the peripheral oxygen (SPO2) is one of the crucial monitoring parameters on these babies. It is necessary that these fragile neonates feel most comfortable as possible during the monitoring. The current solutions for these SPO2 oximeters can be uncomfortable for use and hampers parent-child interaction. In this paper we propose an innovative solution for reflectance pulse oximeter based on Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) techniques that will lead into more comfortable use in a long term monitoring. Prototypes with the reflectance sensors embedded in soft foam and fabric materials are built to enhance a comfortable non-invasive yet reliable monitoring. These monitoring units give the opportunity of integration into a snuggle and mattress where the baby lays on most of the time. In this paper we report the integration of the prototype monitoring units into a snuggle. To evaluate the comfort as well as performance of the final prototype, we first conduct tests on adults. The prototype monitoring units are tested on various body locations of adult participants. Signal quality on different body locations is reported and questionnaires for comfort assessment are analyzed. Experiments on the premature babies will be carried out at NICU of Máxima Medical Centre (MMC) in Veldhoven, the Netherlands.","PeriodicalId":207140,"journal":{"name":"2011 Seventh International Conference on Intelligent Environments","volume":"99 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134576508","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This usually results in undelivered discovery requests either requiring the requests to be issued again or the services remaining undiscovered. One of the principle courses of such message loss is the queuing mechanism used by the intermediate routers and/or any control points required to manage devices. This paper presents a significant analysis of the relationships between the different network devices to try to understand the causes of such message loss. In particular it will examine the different causes and how they influence each other. We present a formula which shows the relationship between the different causes of undelivered messages. This formula has been applied to the Universal Plug and Play (UPnP) protocol using simulated client and service applications written in C++. This paper provides researchers and network designers a mechanism for analyzing the potential performance of a network. It allows the impact of the relationships between the different causes for then on-delivery of messages to be taken into consideration when designing a network and applying protocols to that network.","PeriodicalId":207140,"journal":{"name":"2011 Seventh International Conference on Intelligent Environments","volume":"3 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114109403","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On the hardware side, the system controls hotplates by regulating the temperature of heated regions to turn the attention to the food actually being heated instead of the hotplate. Furthermore, the user interaction with the computer system is adapted to the requirements in a kitchen. On the work flow side, MAMPF converts a recipe into a task tree which is used to guide the user through the cooking process. By knowing the recipe, based on a formal description specially developed for this system, the optimal sequence of actions can be calculated. The system is designed to support the user without limiting spontaneity or creativity and can - if necessary - be used just like any usual stove. Consequentially, the user always retains control over the system, all settings can be overwritten at any point, and the order of the tasks can be dynamically rearranged. In order to prove the correctness of this concept, a prototype has been implemented.","PeriodicalId":207140,"journal":{"name":"2011 Seventh International Conference on Intelligent Environments","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121259106","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
