Not all research leads to fruitful results; trying new ways or methods may surpass state of the art, but sometimes the hypothesis is not proven, the improvement is insignificant, or the system fails because of a design error done years ago in previous works. In a systems discipline like pervasive computing, there are many sources of errors, from hardware issues over communication channels to heterogeneous software environments. However, failure to succeed is not a failure to progress. It is essential to create platforms for sharing insights, experiences, and lessons learned when conducting research in pervasive computing so that the same mistakes are not repeated. And sometimes, a problem is a symptom of discovering new research challenges. Based on the collective input of the First International Workshop on Negative Results in Pervasive Computing (PerFail 2022), co-located with the 20th International Conference on Pervasive Computing and Communications (PerCom 2022), this article presents a comprehensive discussion on perspectives on publishing negative results, useful failures, and lessons learned in pervasive computing.

This article introduces the Emteq's OCOsense TM smart glasses equipped with a novel noncontact OCO TM sensor technology for measuring facial muscle activation and expressions based on high-resolution tracking of skin movement. We demonstrate that the OCO TM sensor technology based on optomyography is a sensitive and accurate approach for assessing skin movement in three dimensions, providing a means for measuring the facial expressions used to assess emotional valence such as smile, frown, and eyebrow raise. We propose that glasses-based optomyography sensing has the potential to herald a paradigm shift in real-world facial expression monitoring, thus enabling real-time emotional analytics with healthcare and research applications.

Computational law has its limits—whether these come from the very nature of the law itself or from technical limitations. By reviewing these limits, two conclusions become clear: That interdisciplinary solutions are a must, and that only a subset of law should be turned into automatically processable regulation.

Academic publishing is at a pivotal juncture. Generative AI models have fundamentally transformed the way we create, consume, and disseminate information. With the capability to produce expansive text in real time, these models demonstrate their potential to distil complex data into concise, digestible formats. Consequently, the traditional long-format academic paper seems increasingly outdated and, in some cases, redundant.
