A P2P Architecture for Multimedia Content Retrieval
2006
The retrieval facilities of most Peer-to-Peer (P2P) systems are limited to queries based on unique identifiers or small sets of keywords. This approach can be highly labor-intensive and inconsistent. In this paper we investigate a scenario where a huge amount of multimedia resources are shared in a P2P network, by means of efficient content-based image and video retrieval functionalities. The challenge in such systems is to limit the number of sent messages, maximizing the usefulness of each peer contacted in the query process. We achieve this goal by the adoption of a novel algorithm for routing user queries. The proposed approach exploits compact representations of multimedia resources sh…
A Taxonomy as a Vehicle for Learning
2009
In this article, we describe the development of a classification system providing a framework for analysis of, and communication about, a subgroup of learning objects. The objects we consider are highly visual, animated, interactive, and mathematics-related, and we call them VaniMaps. Secondly, we discuss the use of the system. In the first phase, the development was based on literature studies and discussions on examples of VaniMaps. In the second phase, the classification system was tested by students and their responses were analyzed to identify possible improvements. Now, the system is developed further based on experience gained while using it for different purposes. We see several pos…
Crowdboard: Augmenting in-person idea generation with real-time crowds
2017
Online crowds can help infuse creativity into the design process, but traditional strategies for leveraging them, such as large-scale ideation platforms, require time and organizational effort in order to obtain results. We propose a new method for crowd-based ideation that simplifies the process by having smaller crowds join in-person ideators during synchronous creative sessions. Our system Crowdboard allows online crowds to provide real-time creative input during early-stage design activities, such as brainstorming or concept mapping. The system enables in-person ideators to develop ideas on a physical or digital whiteboard which is augmented with real-time creative input from online par…
Material multimedia para aumentar el rendimiento académico de los trabajos en grupo
2017
[EN] Multimedia can be considered a useful tool for improving the learning. In this study we analyze the marks that students get in a group activity with and without the use of a multimedia material made by teachers. The scores are obtained using a rubric previously tested for this activity and the results show an increase in the final qualification for student groups who used the multimedia material. We also analyze the scores by units following the rubric and we note that scores increase 4.0 points for a maximum of 10 in the methodology unit. Moreover, we collect the opinion of our students about the multimedia material and how it helped them to better understand the work they had to do i…

Material multimedia para la integración de contenidos en asignaturas y grados del Área de la Salud: Transporte de membrana
2021
[EN] Multimedia material supports both teachers and students in the teaching-learning process, obtaining satisfactory results. The current educational system uses a mechanical and rigid mechanism in which teaching is fragmented and disconnected by subjects. Our work aims to report a new academic proposal where a new integrative multimedia material is developed about membrane transport between different subjects and degrees in the Health Area. The results were very satisfactory because the students' opinion about the video was very positive and well-rated. This work clarified the need for a change in the educational system.
