An educational tool for understanding MPEG‐2 video compression and coding techniques
Computer Applications in Engineering Education, Volume 31, Issue 5, Page 1219-1233, September 2023., 2023 Abstract The understanding of the video encoding/decoding processes is a key skill for students of computer science, engineering, or telecommunications, especially those specialized in multimedia. The special characteristics of the video signals, and how such features are leveraged to compress the video frames using coding theory, are hard to ...

Boosting computer‐aided design pedagogy using interactive self‐assessment graphical tools
Computer Applications in Engineering Education, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 26-46, January 2023., 2023 Abstract Computer‐aided design (CAD) tools are essential for any engineer and, thus, many researchers have focused on developing the most suitable method for acquiring CAD competences. In recent years, efforts have been devoted to designing new, innovative and helpful methodologies to improve the CAD pedagogy. The presented research aims at showing the

Journal of Engineering Education, Volume 111, Issue 4, Page 813-851, October 2022., 2022 Abstract Background Recent advances in technology and computer simulation have expanded the use of virtual manipulatives in engineering education. However, especially in disciplines in which tactile concepts (e.g., force) are included, it has been claimed that learning could be compromised by substituting physical materials with computer simulations ...

Participant Observation to Apply an Empirical Method of Codesign with Children
Advances in Human-Computer Interaction, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 Dental anxiety in children is a well‐documented problem in the scientific literature. Tools mediated by Information Technology have been shown to positively influence children’s mood based on distraction as well as relaxing activities. We propose an empirical method of codesign with children to generate app content for reducing dental anxiety.

Wireless Communications and Mobile Computing, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 This paper illustrates the impact of wavelength on the Optical Line of sight (OLOS) link working in the Visible Light Communication (VLC) spectrum. The extension of work is based on previous outcomes given by researchers. It has been elaborated with different determinants based on the color factor of LED available in the Visible Light (VL) spectrum. In

EEG Feature Extraction Using Evolutionary Algorithms for Brain‐Computer Interface Development
Computational Intelligence and Neuroscience, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022 Brain–computer interfaces are systems capable of mapping brain activity to specific commands, which enables to remotely automate different types of processes in hardware devices or software applications. However, the development of brain–computer interfaces has been limited by several factors that affect their performance, such as the characterization ...

Using semantic annotations on political debate videos for building open government based lawmaking
Expert Systems, Volume 38, Issue 8, December 2021., 2021 Abstract The traditional concept and practice of lawmaking is being transformed by the open government paradigm. It involves a new digital model that links three principles: transparency, participation and collaboration. However, the information system‐enabled solutions in this context are still in their infancy, which none available that address the ...
