Whether P2D/D2P systems aim at defining an interaction between the two involved figures crossing the boundaries of the hospital, D2D systems foster a professional interaction between physicians, typically for a second opinion or for a collaborative approach to the treatment. In this paper we present a collaborative extension of a system for telerehabilitation (patent pending), belonging to the P2D category, in order to include also some D2D features. The proposed extension promotes a collaborative scenario involving several actors with different roles and privileges on the system: the patient, the physiotherapist, the physiatrist, a consulting specialist and the administrator. All the involved figures interact through the telehealth system thanks to an expressly designed software infrastructure. The main P2D information How is ensured by the telerehabilitation kit, able to record and send over the internet the statistics on the main performance parameters extracted during the home rehabilitation sessions. Beyond the administrator, the system enables the interactions between the other figures (D2D) in order to propose, validate and comment possible rehabilitation protocol modifications in response to the performance trend of the patient, taking into account the possible effect of different systemic treatments the patient is subjected to. The design of such a collaborative framework descends from an engineering analysis of the experience gained in the context of the ongoing experimental trials about hand rehabilitation of rheumatic patients with the P2D system.","PeriodicalId":256633,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS)","volume":"55 3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128451291","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}

These innovations represent a new frontier for transformative innovation on a societal level. They hold the promise of breakthroughs in how people can collaborate through dynamically coordinated, efficient and reciprocal service transactions to improve the quality of life for all. I fix your car, you do a neighbor's taxes, she designs my new kitchen, and so on. Existing organizations, which are already pursuing the goal of leveraging untapped community potential, do exist. These are known as as timebanks and community exchanges and have been around and increasing in number for quite some time, but they have grown only slowly in relation to the need for their services. This is partly due to a lack of adequate resources devoted towards setting up and running them and also to constraints in the design of the systems that they rely on to coordinate the transactions between community participants. This paper highlights the possibilities for today's researchers and innovators to turbocharge community collaboration by developing the required technologies. It is based on past research and our own ongoing research conducted towards building a mobile app for timebanking. The guiding vision is to develop more intelligent and context-aware systems to support on-the-fly service brokering that will greatly increase the scope and efficiency of acts of reciprocal altruism.","PeriodicalId":256633,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129162399","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}

Hadoop-MapReduce is a common software framework processing parallelizable problem across big datasets using a distributed cluster of processors or stand-alone computers. Cloud Hadoop-MapReduce can scale incrementally in the number of processing nodes. Hence, the Hadoop-MapReduce is designed to provide a processing platform with powerful computation. Network traffic is always a most important bottleneck in data-intensive computing and network latency decreases significant performance in data parallel systems. Network bottleneck is caused by network bandwidth and the network speed is much slower than disk data access. So that, good data locality can reduces network traffic and increases performance in data-intensive HPC systems. However, Hadoop's scheduler has a defect of data locality in resource assignment. In this paper, we present a locality-aware scheduling algorithm (LaSA) for Hadoop-MapReduce scheduler. Firstly, we propose a mathematical model of weight of data interference in Hadoop scheduler. Secondly, we present the LaSA algorithm to use weight of data interference to provide data locality-aware resource assignment in Hadoop scheduler. Finally, we build an experimental environment with 3 cluster and 35 VMs to verify the LaSA's performance.","PeriodicalId":256633,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS)","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121771039","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}

Heterogeneous data file formats, data structure formats, and data storage schemas are prevalent in the scientific research community. This poses a great challenge for collaboration between researchers due to data interoperability issues. In our prior work, we have addressed these challenges by proposing a web-enabled approach for generating data processors initially intended for environmental science researchers. This paper takes the solution one step further, and describes the software that enables generating and running data processors on local user computers. The paper details the design of the software solution and presents the steps that the users need to follow for running processors for a variety of data conversion needs. The solution presented is powerful and flexible as it can be applied to a large variety of data conversion needs and to practically any type of data-intensive scientific research. It also facilitates collaboration as scientists can share their custom created data processors, thus increasing efficiency in research activities. Researchers can benefit from the software engineering principles used in creating and generating data processors, and can take advantage of the reusability of numerous data processors create by end users who do not necessarily have software development expertise.","PeriodicalId":256633,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129356072","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}

Historically the emphasis has been to educate and support individual “Renaissance scholars”. In today's world, most of the significant problems are systemic problems that transcend not only the individual human mind but cannot be addressed by any one specialty discipline. To cope with these problems requires not only “Renaissance Scholars” but “Renaissance Communities” in which stakeholders coming from different disciplines can collaborate. Our research at the Center for Lifelong Learning & Design (L3D) over the past two decades has been focused on creating a new understanding of learning, new media, and new learning organizations. Our co-evolutionary perspective explores the dialectical relationship between: (1) how a deep understanding of learning creates innovative demands and design criteria for future generations of social-technical environments; (2) how the unique potential of computational media impacts and transforms learning by transcending \"giftwrapping\" and “technology-centered” approaches; and (3) how new learning organizations contribute to reconceptualizing and reinventing learning and education in the 21st century. The conceptual framework is illustrated by specific developments of social-technical environments that we have designed and evaluated including: collaborative, domain-oriented design environments, environments created by mass collaboration, and courses-as-seeds.","PeriodicalId":256633,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115259124","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}

For example, if designer A is creating a design for a helicopters hydraulics system and this is dependent on electrical power (EP) from a sub-system from designer B then how can the workflows, decisions and options of the two designers be managed so that each can understand the implications of their own design decisions and more importantly the implications and design decisions they force on others? The proposed CAPS system employs two dependency reasoning engines one handles quantitative values and other qualitative values. The quantitative engine identifies that a motor with an output of 3000rpm allows a generator to output 100V whereas the qualitative engine could rule out several motors options if the overall design states that the weight of a helicopters transmission needs to be comparable to that of the engine or the positioning of a sensor makes it susceptible to an EM process that could affect its function. A mapping capability is provided allowing analysis to be passed between the two engines. The proposed CAPS architecture has been evaluated against a large collaborative design task involving the design of the electrical, hydraulic, structural and mechanical aspects of a helicopter.","PeriodicalId":256633,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Collaboration Technologies and Systems (CTS)","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-05-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115303895","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}
