The Least Increasing Aversion (LIA) Protocol: Illustration on Identifying Individual Susceptibility to Cybersickness Triggers

This paper introduces the Least Increase aversion (LIA) protocol to investigate the relative impact of factors that may trigger cybersickness. The protocol is inspired by the Subjective Matching methodology (SMT) from which it borrows the incremental const ...

Enabling inter-area reserve exchange through stable benefit allocation mechanisms *

Maryam Kamgarpour, Gabriela Hug, Orcun Karaca

The establishment of a single European day-ahead market has accomplished the integration of the regional day-ahead markets. However, reserve provision and activation remain an exclusive responsibility of regional operators. This limited spatial coordinatio ...

Prism-based path set restriction for solving Markovian traffic assignment problem

Yuki Oyama

This paper deals with a main limitation of Markovian traffic assignment (MTA) models: when the network includes cyclic structures and the link costs are small enough, the fact that the MTA models assign traffic flows to all feasible paths causes computatio ...

On Two Unicast Wireless Networks with Destination-to-Source Feedback

I-Hsiang Wang

In this paper we study the role of feedback in layered two unicast wireless networks with arbitrary number of nodes and connectivity. The feedback model allows destinations to feedback their received signals to their respective sources. In the case of line ...

Minimum d-blockers and d-transversals in graphs

Dominique de Werra

We consider a set V of elements and an optimization problem on V: the search for a maximum (or minimum) cardinality subset of V verifying a given property a"similar to. A d-transversal is a subset of V which intersects any optimum solution in at least d el ...

Preserving Privacy in Collaborative Filtering through Distributed Aggregation of Offline Profiles

Jean-Pierre Hubaux, Reza Shokri, Pedram Pedarsani, Georgios Theodorakopoulos

In recommender systems, usually, a central server needs to have access to users' profiles in order to generate useful recommendations. Having this access, however, undermines the users' privacy. The more information is revealed to the server on the user-it ...

High Data Rate RFID Tag/Reader Architecture Using Wireless Voltage Regulation

Catherine Dehollain, Michel Declercq, Nicolas Pillin

This paper discusses a novel tag/reader system, based on the passive, far-field RFID principle, with megabits per second read capability at operating ranges of several centimeters. The system operates in the ISM band at 2.45 GHz. A maximum data rate of 4 M ...
