With the advance of speech recognition and speech synthesis technologies, their complementary use becomes attractive for mobile devices in order to implement real multimodal user interaction. However, current systems and formats do not sufficiently integrate advanced multimodal interactions. We introduce an advanced generic multimodal interaction and rendering system (MIRS) dedicated for mobile devices. MIRS incorporates efficient processing of XML specification languages for limited, mobile devices and comes with the XML-based dialog and interface specification language (DISL). DISL can be considered as an UIML subset, which is enhanced by the means of state-oriented dialog specifications. The dialog specification is based on ODSN (object oriented dialog specification notation), which has been introduced to define user interface control by means of interaction states with transition rules.}}, author = {{Müller, Wolfgang and Schäfer, Robbie and Bleul, Steffen}}, booktitle = {{Proceedings of HICCS-37}}, isbn = {{0-7695-2056-1}}, keywords = {{User interfaces, Speech recognition, Streaming media, Specification languages, Keyboards, Speech synthesis, Rendering (computer graphics), Ambient intelligence, Humans, Displays}}, location = {{Waikoloa, HI, USA}}, title = {{{Interactive Multimodal User Interfaces for Mobile Devices}}}, doi = {{10.1109/HICSS.2004.1265674}}, year = {{2004}}, } @article{35857, author = {{Blömer, J.}}, issn = {{0178-4617}}, journal = {{Algorithmica}}, keywords = {{Applied Mathematics, Computer Science Applications, General Computer Science}}, number = {{1}}, pages = {{2--15}}, publisher = {{Springer Science and Business Media LLC}}, title = {{{Denesting by Bounded Degree Radicals}}}, doi = {{10.1007/s004530010028}}, volume = {{28}}, year = {{2002}}, } @article{45307, author = {{Mahnken, Rolf}}, issn = {{0045-7825}}, journal = {{Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering}}, keywords = {{Computer Science Applications, General Physics and Astronomy, Mechanical Engineering, Mechanics of Materials, Computational Mechanics}}, number = {{39}}, pages = {{5057--5080}}, publisher = {{Elsevier BV}}, title = {{{Strength difference in compression and tension and pressure dependence of yielding in elasto-plasticity}}}, doi = {{10.1016/s0045-7825(00)00364-9}}, volume = {{190}}, year = {{2002}}, } @article{45412, author = {{Mahnken, Rolf and Kohlmeier, M.}}, issn = {{0045-7825}}, journal = {{Computer Methods in Applied Mechanics and Engineering}}, keywords = {{Computer Science Applications, General Physics and Astronomy, Mechanical Engineering, Mechanics of Materials, Computational Mechanics}}, number = {{32-33}}, pages = {{4259--4278}}, publisher = {{Elsevier BV}}, title = {{{Finite element simulation for rock salt with dilatancy boundary coupled to fluid permeation}}}, doi = {{10.1016/s0045-7825(00)00317-0}}, volume = {{190}}, year = {{2002}}, } @article{45418, author = {{Mahnken, Rolf and Tikhomirov, D. and Stein, E.}}, issn = {{0045-7949}}, journal = {{Computers & Structures}}, keywords = {{Computer Science Applications, Mechanical Engineering, General Materials Science, Modeling and Simulation, Civil and Structural Engineering}}, number = {{2}}, pages = {{135--143}}, publisher = {{Elsevier BV}}, title = {{{Implicit integration scheme and its consistent linearization for an elastoplastic-damage model with application to concrete}}}, doi = {{10.1016/s0045-7949(99)00089-9}}, volume = {{75}}, year = {{2002}}, } @article{45422, author = {{Mahnken, Rolf}}, issn = {{0045-7949}}, journal = {{Computers & Structures}}, keywords = {{Computer Science Applications, Mechanical Engineering, General Materials Science, Modeling and Simulation, Civil and Structural Engineering}}, number = {{2}}, pages = {{179--200}}, publisher = {{Elsevier BV}}, title = {{{A comprehensive study of a multiplicative elastoplasticity model coupled to damage including parameter identification}}}, doi = {{10.1016/s0045-7949(98)00296-x}}, volume = {{74}}, year = {{2002}}, } @article{45427, abstract = {{In this work a gradient‐based optimization method is applied in order to determine material parameters for a viscoplastic model with dynamic yield surface coupled to damage as presented in 1997.

In fuzzy logic, fuzzy sets are usually defined and manipulated by means of complex mathematics, whereas the fuzzy control process is frequently outlined by visual sketches based on set diagrams in order to enhance the comprehension of the inference process. The rule based execution of this process usually follows the lines of rule based visual programming languages (VPLs), i.e., languages comparable to Agentsheets and ChemTrains. This strongly indicates that VPLs are thus well applicable for this use. We first outline the basic concepts of fuzzy logic and fuzzy control.
