In the scope of this study we observe the disruptive technologies which appear in the learning material of the higher education more and more frequently from the end of the 20th century, and we also investigate what effects the disruptive technologies have on the educational environment and the methods in the higher education. This article shows a remarkably good example of CogInfoCom, as during teaching the disruptive technologies the lecturers and the students do a close cooperative work in the digital environment suiting the digital life of Z and CE generations, where the humans and ICT are not separable on cognitive level. We also investigate how the disruptive (creative destructive) effect apply to the environment in the higher education. We are seeking answers to whether the new technologies transform the present model of the higher education and whether they replace the present educational methods and scenes. In an international survey we are looking for the answer to: in which phase of the Gartners Hype Graph the disruptive technologies appearing in the field of engineering are introduced in the higher education. We are trying to reveal the connections between the background causes and effects concerning the time when they appear in the educational material.

The intent of our study, conducted on a sample of 98 psychiatric outpatients, was to explore the correlations between executive functions and traits of temperament and character. Executive functions were assessed through Frontal Assessment Battery and the traits of temperament and character using the Temperament and Character Inventory. From our sample, a significant link between certain traits of temperament and character and a lower efficiency of some specific executive functions and higher efficiency of others clearly emerge. The interpretation that we propose of the data which emerges from the study appears to be coherent with a modern vision of the mental phenomena which seem to achieve non linear interactions among the psychological, biological and relational dimensions which are characteristic of the human being. The complex system of interactions between brain, mind and relations described could be conceptualized as a process embodied and situated in a specific environment, not separable from the body and relationships. The knowledge of this embodied process is important for grounding the "affective computing" direction research. It is necessary to increase the size of the sample group in order to be able to generalize the statements, program experiments finalized at verifying the predictions of the model.

The MPT network layer multipath communication library-which was proposed to be a possible new basis for the future cognitive info-communication-is capable to use multiple communication channels to create an UDP tunnel which uses GRE tunnel protocol. On the other hand, Multipath TCP uses a special kernel module which creates multiple TCP sub-flows to aggregate network throughput. In this paper we used twelve 100Mbps speed channels to compare the aggregation capabilities of these two multipath communication techniques. Different scenarios were used: we measured both IPv4 and IPv6 as underlying and encapsulation protocols. In all cases, we used one to twelve channels to measure the aggregation capabilities with the iperf network measurement tool and also with HTTP download.

Digital videos play an important role today: they are used for entertainment, for communication and for information exchange. Within the internet, there are many sources that provide video content in different ways. Videos can be streamed in real-time or downloaded for local usage. In all these scenarios, video content is exchanged using some sort of binary serialization format. Consequently, compatible decoders are required if the binary representation is to be restored. In our work, we use an abstraction mechanism that allows for referencing and accessing digital video content in an interoperable way. As the abstraction also is supposed to be human-comprehensible, the abstraction constitutes the basis for describing the exchange of video information among humans and devices in a unified manner. In this paper, we will explain how the abstraction can be used to specify general video communication scenarios. Furthermore, we introduce a Java library that encapsulates decoding as well as transmitting functionalities in order to provide video content using our proposed abstraction, regardless of how and where the video is actually stored. We will further show how the library can be used to implement video communication scenarios in a straightforward way.

In the paper we intend to show in detail how the issue of the transition from the ‘Pisces’ into the so-called ‘Aquarius’ "World age" moves through the world view of the two major minds', Wolfgang Pauli and Carl G. Jung's world view of special scientific interpreting "Psyche and Nature" through the reinterpreted symbols of astrology in a "synchronistic way" in particular from the point of view of their last years "cooperation" of not entirely conflict-free. As far as is possible, we touch the issues of their early dreams and symbolic interpretations related to the zodiac and age of the Aquarius.

The present paper presents a unified cloud-based framework for offering Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) services to elderly with cognitive impairments aiming at prolonging and supporting their independent living, through interoperable, open, personalised and seamless ICT solutions. Through its cloud architecture that is based on the OSGi framework, the proposed framework enables easy registration and integration of AAL services to the platform and also easy, transparent, personalised and contextualised access to all the supported services to the cognitively impaired elderly end-users and their caregivers.

Physiological sensors are widely used in order to infer the mental effort of a subject during performing different tasks. Desktop or mobile applications like educational games can gain from such information in order to fine tune the difficulty or the type of a given assignment. Discussions can be found on the advantages and disadvantages of different sensor types (like EEG, ECG, pupillometry, GSR etc.). Machine learning technologies are used to find the baseline of a subject and infer the mental effort levels. In this paper we investigate and compare different types of physiological sensors and classification techniques. Real life experiments with mobile adaptive educational framework (AdaptEd) are presented to support our results.

In this paper we will report our development of digital manufacturing toolbox which supports small and medium-sized enterprises in their cognitive and practical production development processes. The toolbox - or a set of tools - is part of a more extensive toolbox of supports for companies, which is developed as an essential part of the TARGET - Making Regional Manufacturing Globally Competitive and Innovative - project and will respond on the needs of the small and medium-sized manufacturing companies facing the challenges of adopting the digitization in their functions and the barriers caused by the remote location on the northern periphery region.

These methods can be found in the PhD thesis and partially in some articles of the author. Additionally it deals with some other applications of CAS. There were used MAPLE(ver 15.0) and SAGE(several versions) systems.

In this paper, we propose a new protocol to construct ad hoc network using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE). Especially, we are focusing on using advertising packet of BLE to construct ad hoc network, since the reach of advertising packet of BLE is longer than ordinary Bluetooth. We would like to use this kind of ad hoc network to develop support tool for disaster victims or group management tool to keep safety during school trip. We designed a protocol that allows us to construct ad hoc network efficiently using advertising packet of BLE. As our experiment using iPhones, the latency of one hop in our ad hoc network was 0.3 second and feasible to send information for our purpose.
