Building a Polyglot Data Access Layer for a Low-Code Application Development Pl...

Low-code application development as proposed by the OutSystems Platform enables fast mobile and desktop application development and deployment. It hinges on visual development of the interface and business logic but also on easy integration with data stores and services while delivering robust applications that scale. Data integration increasingly means accessing a variety of NoSQL stores. Unfortunately, the di...

Mapping Enabling Technologies for Supply Chains with Future Scenarios

<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Driven by the current digital transformation, European companies rely on accurate forecasting of future trends and prediction of most useful technologies in order to maintain their competitive edge. For this purpose, the mapping of enabling technologies to future scenarios becomes a valuable tool for practitioners and researchers alike, especially when considering the di...

Spanish coal royal decree: An energy security measure

National governments sometimes introduce policies that modify energy markets to achieve other social and political goals. These policies, created with the best of intentions, often have unintended consequences. Here we present a case study of one such policy, the Royal Decree in Spain that mandates the use of the Spanish-Indigenous Coal (IC). © 2013 IEEE.

The mobile context framework: Providing context to mobile applications

The spread of mobile devices in modern societies has forced the industry to create software paradigms to meet the new challenges it faces. Some of these challenges are the huge heterogeneity of devices or the quick changes of users' context. In this scenario, context becomes a key element, enabling mobile applications to be user centric and adapt to user requirements. The Mobile Context Framework, proposed in t...

MobILive 2014 - Mobile Iris Liveness Detection Competition

Biometric systems based on iris are vulnerable to several attacks, particularly direct attacks consisting on the presentation of a fake iris to the sensor. The development of iris liveness detection techniques is crucial for the deployment of iris biometric applications in daily life specially in the mobile biometric field. The 1st Mobile Iris Liveness Detection Competition (MobILive) was organized in the conte...

On the efficient implementation of mode-directed tabling

Mode-directed tabling is an extension to the tabling technique that supports the definition of modes for specifying how answers are inserted into the table space. In this paper, we focus our discussion on the efficient support for mode-directed tabling in the YapTab tabling system, which uses tries to implement the table space. We discuss 7 different modes and explain how we have extended and optimized YapTab's...
