  text: Service Level Agreements are essential tools enabling clients and telco operators
    to specify required quality of service. The 5GTANGO NFV platform enables SLAs
    through policies and custom service lifecycle management components. This allows
    the operator to trigger certain lifecycle management events for a service, and
    the network service developer to define how to execute such events (e.g., how
    to scale). In this demo we will demonstrate this unique 5GTANGO concept using
    an elastic proxy service supported by a high availability SLA enforced through
    a range of traffic regimes.

  text: The paper is concerned with binaural signal processing for a bimodal human-robot
    interface with hearing and vision. The two microphone signals are processed to
    obtain an enhanced single-channel input signal for the subsequent speech recognizer
    and to localize the acoustic source, an important information for establishing
    a natural human-robot communication. We utilize a robust adaptive algorithm for
    filter-and-sum beamforming (FSB) and extract speaker direction information from
    the resulting FIR filter coefficients. Further, particle filtering is applied
    which conducts a nonlinear Bayesian tracking of speaker movement. Good location
    accuracy can be achieved even in highly reverberant environments. The results
    obtained outperform the conventional generalized cross correlation (GCC) method.

  text: Portable devices come with different limitations in user interaction like
    limited display size, small keyboard, and different sorts of input and output
    capabilities. 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.

  text: This article introduces and discusses different innovative means for visual
    specification and animation of complex concurrent systems. It introduces the completely
    visual programming language Pictorial Janus (PJ) and its application in the customer-oriented
    design process. PJ implements a completely visual programming language with inherent
    animation facilities. The article outlines the transformation of purely visual
    PJ programs into textual imperative programming languages. The second part of
    the article investigates animated 3D-presentations and introduces a novel approach
    to an animated 3D programming language for interactive customer-oriented illustrations.
