UI mashups enable non-experts to create rich web applications. In this paper, we propose SmartComposition to enable local developers to create environment-aware multi-screen mashups. We facilitate WebComponent technologies to build SmartComponents – the building blocks for mashups. For achieving environment-awareness, our approach integrates functi...

While cloud computing has improved many workflows that deal with collaboration, the cloud is rarely used in the sector of e-Health applications. Therefore, we propose a scenario that can benefit from an introduction of cloud computing in e-Health. Based on this scenario we identified several challenges a system needs to deal with, such as protectio...

The overall objective of UI mashups is to enable non-experts to create rich web applications. While current approaches focus on creating UI mashups running on a single screen, we propose SmartCompositionto enable local developers to create multi-screen mashups. We present our enhanced SmartComponents, which are based on the latest developments of t...

An in-house crowd is composed of persons with different skills, where they can be assigned to different projects on demand. Persons forming an in-house crowd have to meet for different purposes, such as planning the project or distributing objectives. While scheduling meetings is an important task in a knowledge worker’s daily business, the problem...

Storing business sensitive data in the cloud is a huge challenge. Since disclosures of Edward Snowden, the trust in encryptions of the cloud provider decreased enormously. While this problem exists in many domains, like financial data, we identified a scenario in the e-Health sector. It is an important issue to preserve the patients’ privacy when s...

WebID is a new identification approach of the W3C. It enables managing profile data associated to persons and services at self-defined places in the cloud. By relying on RDF vocabularies like FOAF for describing user profile data, WebID contributes to the Semantic Web vision. While access to user profiles can be controlled with existing security me...

Recently, user interface mashups have become a popular approach for covering the long tail of end-user needs. The simple composition paradigm and rich tool support aim at enabling even non-programmers to aggregate data and application logic to solve situational business tasks. Despite of existing assistance mechanisms, both development and usage of...

The spread and usage of mobile devices, such as smartphones or tablets, increases continuously. While most of the applications developed for these devices can only be used on the device itself, mobile devices also offer a way to create a new kind of applications: multi-screen applications. These applications run distributedly on multiple screens, l...

Novice users often need support to become familiar with a new mashup. The most common problem is that mashups offer a high grade of personalization, such as the user's choice which widgets she wants to use. This problem becomes more difficult in multi-screen mashups, because the user has to decide additionally on which screen the widgets should run...

The opportunities of the Internet combined with new devices and technologies change the end users' habits in media consumption. While end users often search for related information to the currently watched TV show by themselves, we propose to improve this user experience by automatically enriching media using semantic extraction. In our recent work...

The Internet offers a wide range of information and media content. Currently, users who are watching a video and look for related information have to search for it by themselves. In our recent work we focused on how to enrich video content with additional related information. This paper presents an approach to extend media enrichment to support the...

The Internet has become an important source for media content. Content types are not limited to text and pictures but also include video and audio. Currently audiovisual media is presented as it is. However, these media do not integrate the huge amount of related information, which is available on the Web. In this paper we present the Chrooma+ appr...
