The paper proposes and discusses the integration of WSN and RFID technologies in the IoT scenario. The proposed approach is based on the REST paradigm, thanks to which the two technologies can be seamless integrated by representing sensors, actuators and RFID related data as network resources globally addressable through state-of-the-art IoT protocols. The integration approach is detailed for the Smart Factory use case by proposing and developing an advanced IoT-based WSN and RFID integrated solution aiming at improving safety in industrial plants. The developed system can guarantee a safe access to factory dangerous areas in which safety equipments are required. In the paper, the system design is first presented, then, all the developed hardware and software solutions are described before presenting system performance results in a real test bed. System performance are reported in terms of response time and accuracy for authorization control and location tracking applications.

In this paper, we take a detailed look at the performance of components of an idealized question answering system on two different tasks: the TREC Question Answering task and a set of reading comprehension exams. We carry out three types of analysis: inherent properties of the data, feature analysis, and performance bounds. Based on these analyses we explain some of the performance results of the current generation of Q/A systems and make predictions on future work. In particular, we present four findings: (1) Q/A system performance is correlated with answer repetition; (2) relative overlap scores are more effective than absolute overlap scores; (3) equivalence classes on scoring functions can be used to quantify performance bounds; and (4) perfect answer typing still leaves a great deal of ambiguity for a Q/A system because sentences often contain several items of the same type.

The article discusses the role of linguistic annotation in corpus linguistics as opposed to annotation in natural language processing. In corpus linguistics, annotation is an integral part of the process of linguistic interpretation and description of the data. Tagging and parsing are discussed as the automatic counterparts of, respectively, the paradigmatic and the syntagmatic description of corpus data. The requirements for a corpus linguistic annotation system are considered. An account is given of the TOSCA analysis system as representative of such an annotation system. Performance results of the system are given, and an evaluation is made.

Performance Results

Performance of conversion plants for geopressured fluids has been predicted using realistic wellhead conditions and idealized thermodynamics. A method is developed for estimating the maximum output of a combined hydraulic-thermal recovery system. Performance of both flash and organic Rankine cycle schemes for thermal recovery is considered and the importance of hydraulic recovery is illustrated. Rankine cycle performance results for propane and isobutane are presented. Results are also given which illustrate the extreme importance of recovering dissolved methane due to its effect on both energy production and related economic viability.

The Impact

Assessing the impact of providing a decision aid on decision time, workload, and performance is critical for optimizing overall human-system performance. This paper first examines the effects of providing a decision aid on decision time and workload and then looks at the effects of decision time and decision-aid accuracy on performance. Results show that the availability of a decision aid exacts a penalty in decision time but provides a significant decrease in cognitive workload. The availability of a decision aid significantly increases operators' performance, but does not raise it to the performance level that a high accuracy decision aid would achieve. Contrary to expectation, a longer decision time has a negative effect on performance, especially with a low accuracy decision aid. The results indicate the importance of providing operators with training in use of a decision aid so they develop an accurate mental model of how it works and how to optimize the integration of its judgments with their own.
