Maintaining information awareness in a dynamic environment : assessing animation as a communication mechanism
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2000-05) -
Maker-Oriented Curriculum for Human-Centered Design and Prototyping Instruction
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2020-10-16)As the role of human-centered design and human-computer interaction continues to expand its role in undergraduate and graduate computer science and engineering programs, the demand for tools and technologies to study these ... -
Making Crypto Libraries Robust Against Physical Side-channel Attacks
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2019-10-30)The connection between theoretical and applied cryptography is often not well established due to difficulties in translating the theoretical security proofs to real world software and hardware implementations. Physical ... -
Making infrastructure visible: a case study of home networking
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2011-06-24)In this dissertation, I examine how making infrastructure visible affects users' engagement with that infrastructure, through the case study of home networking. I present empirical evidence of the visibility issues that ... -
Making Multiple Monitors More Manageable
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2006-07-06)After introducing the concept of multiple monitors, which is a computer system with a physically partitioned but virtually contiguous display space (a single computer with many monitors attached), we discuss open Human-Computer ... -
Making novelty normal : a theory of sentence processing
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 1996) -
Managing learning interactions for collaborative robot learning
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2019-09-11)Robotic assistants should be able to actively engage their human partner(s) to generalize knowledge about relevant tasks within their shared environment. Yet a key challenge is not all human partners will be proficient at ... -
Manipulating state space distributions for sample-efficient imitation-learning
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2020-03-16)Imitation learning has emerged as one of the most effective approaches to train agents to act intelligently in unstructured and unknown domains. On its own or in combination with reinforcement learning, it enables agents ... -
Map-centric visual data association across seasons in a natural environment
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2019-11-01)Vision is one of the primary sensory modalities of animals and robots, yet among robots it still has limited power in natural environments. Dynamic processes of Nature continuously change how an environment looks, which ... -
Markov chains and emergent behavior for problems from discrete geometry
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2018-07-02)The problem of generating random samples from large, complex sets is widespread across the sciences, where such samples provide one way to begin to learn about the sets' typical properties. However, when the samples generated ... -
Markov chains for weighted lattice structures
Markov chains are an essential tool for sampling from large sets, and are ubiquitous across many scientific fields, including statistical physics, industrial engineering, and computer science. To be a useful tool for ... -
Markovian analysis and optimization of database recovery protocols
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 1986) -
Master/worker parallel discrete event simulation
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2008-12-16)The execution of parallel discrete event simulation across metacomputing infrastructures is examined. A master/worker architecture for parallel discrete event simulation is proposed providing robust executions under a ... -
Measurement and resource allocation problems in data streaming systems
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2010-04-26)In a data streaming system, each component consumes one or several streams of data on the fly and produces one or several streams of data for other components. The entire Internet can be viewed as a giant data streaming ... -
Measurements and analysis of the Net/One local area network
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 1983) -
Measures of inexact diagnosability
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 1990-12) -
Measuring the effect of user experience and engagement on learning using interactive simulations
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2020-07-21)Previous studies have explored the best methods to measure emotional, cognitive, and physical engagement, but these methods have not been applied to fully understand the impact of multimodal interactive simulations on ... -
Measuring User-Perceived Internet Performance in Multiple Locations
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2004-08-27)Measurement studies of Internet performance are critical for validating or refuting widely held beliefs about Web behavior, and for shedding light on unknown behaviors. Results from these studies can guide Internet ... -
Meeting Data Sharing Needs of Heterogeneous Distributed Users
(Georgia Institute of Technology, 2007-01-16)The fast growth of wireless networking and mobile computing devices has enabled us to access information from anywhere at any time. However, varying user needs and system resource constraints are two major heterogeneity ... -
Memory hierarchy management through off-line computational learning
