Effective management of election campaigns involves dynamic decision-making under uncertainty. Traditional approaches rely heavily on pre-planned strategies that often fail to adapt to real-time changes in voter sentiment and external factors. This paper introduces the Online Election Campaign Planning...

The AI Working Group Close-Out Report was developed with the Science Council and the Society for the Environment. It recommends that: AI should be embraced as a positive opportunity but notes that risks must be considered, in particular to ethics and implications for equality, ...

Background: The everyday lives of older people are increasingly sites of datafication, monitoring and surveillance. This is especially notable with the increase in digital monitoring technologies in the context of care and as a means to enhance the independence of people as they gr...

Background: Risk factors for loneliness operate at micro, meso and macro level. Evidence about loneliness risk factors is dominated by individual level data. Evidence about meso level factors is sparse and research rarely differentiates different loneliness trajectories. We address these gaps...

The four-volume set LNCS 13350, 13351, 13352, and 13353 constitutes the proceedings of the 22ndt International Conference on Computational Science, ICCS 2022, held in London, UK, in June 2022.* The total of 175 full papers and 78 short papers presented in this book set were&#x...

In this paper, we propose an approach for enhancing the usability of Web services. Our approach is based on a set of common interaction characteristics permeating through several interaction design methodologies, such as User-Centred Design, Participatory Design, Meta-Design and Semiotic Engineer...

Deploying six-dimensional movable antenna (6DMA) systems in Internet-of-Vehicles (IoV) scenarios can greatly enhance spectral efficiency. However, the high mobility of vehicles causes rapid spatio-temporal channel variations, posing a significant challenge to real-time 6DMA optimization. In this work, we p...

This demonstration presents U-Parking, a distributed Ultra-Wideband (UWB)-assisted autonomous parking system. By integrating Large Language Models (LLMs)-assisted planning with robust fusion localization and trajectory tracking, it enables reliable automated parking in challenging indoor environments, as validated t...

Millimeter-wave (mmWave) multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) has accelerated the efficiency of modern wireless systems, yet its performance is constrained by the propagation blocking effect and the receiver analog-to-digital converters (ADC) saturation. Motivated by these, this paper first attempted to s...
