Too Much or Too Little Messaging? Situational Determinants of Guilt About Mobile Messaging
2021
Abstract Mobile messaging has been associated with guilt. Guilt about too much messaging may result from self-control failures during goal conflicts. Conversely, guilt about too little messaging may result from violating the salient norm to be available. This research considers both boundary conditions of guilt about mobile communication—goal conflicts and availability norm salience—simultaneously for the first time. We conducted two preregistered experiments to investigate their interplay. Results from a vignette experiment, but not from a laboratory experiment, support the hypotheses that goal conflicts trigger guilt about using messengers and that guilt about not using messengers arises …
Slacking with the Bot: Programmable Social Bot in Virtual Team Interaction
2021
Nonhuman communicators are challenging the prevailing conceptualizations of technology-mediated team communication. Slackbot is a social bot that can be configured to respond to trigger words and, thus, take part in discussions on the platform. A set of 84 bot-related communication episodes were identified from a journalistic team's Slack messages (N=45,940) and analyzed utilizing both qualitative content analysis and interaction process analysis (IPA). This integrated mixed-methods analysis revealed novel insights into the micro-level dynamics of human-machine communication in organizational teams. In response to Slackbot's greetings, acclamations, work-related messages, and relational mes…
Adaptive Service Offloading for Revenue Maximization in Mobile Edge Computing With Delay-Constraint
2019
Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) is an important and effective platform to offload the computational services of modern mobile applications, and has gained tremendous attention from various research communities. For delay and resource constrained mobile devices, the important issues include: 1) minimization of the service latency; 2) optimal revenue maximization; 3) high quality-of-service (QoS) requirement to offload the computational service offloading. To address the above issues, an adaptive service offloading scheme is designed to provide the maximum revenue and service utilization to MEC. Unlike most of the existing works, we consider both the delay-tolerant and delay-constraint services i…
BELM: Bayesian Extreme Learning Machine
2011
The theory of extreme learning machine (ELM) has become very popular on the last few years. ELM is a new approach for learning the parameters of the hidden layers of a multilayer neural network (as the multilayer perceptron or the radial basis function neural network). Its main advantage is the lower computational cost, which is especially relevant when dealing with many patterns defined in a high-dimensional space. This brief proposes a bayesian approach to ELM, which presents some advantages over other approaches: it allows the introduction of a priori knowledge; obtains the confidence intervals (CIs) without the need of applying methods that are computationally intensive, e.g., bootstrap…
Practical considerations for acoustic source localization in the IoT era: Platforms, energy efficiency, and performance
2019
The rapid development of the Internet of Things (IoT) has posed important changes in the way emerging acoustic signal processing applications are conceived. While traditional acoustic processing applications have been developed taking into account high-throughput computing platforms equipped with expensive multichannel audio interfaces, the IoT paradigm is demanding the use of more flexible and energy-efficient systems. In this context, algorithms for source localization and ranging in wireless acoustic sensor networks can be considered an enabling technology for many IoT-based environments, including security, industrial, and health-care applications. This paper is aimed at evaluating impo…
