“…Museums are places that materialize and display knowledge, fostering the collection, preservation and sharing of that knowledge with the public [1]. Museums are changing the way they engage the audience, by turning the visitors from passive to active participants [2,3]. Technological solutions have been fostered to improve the experience of visitors, incorporating multimedia elements and AR [4,5].…”

Informal learning can have an important role in today's Education but, to be effective, it should be contextualized individually for each learner, and situated to enhance experience. Museums have invaluable collections of assets that are in display and curators use their knowledge to engage the audience. Museums are places where informal learning can be fostered to engage the students and provide opportunities for situated learning. Pervasive systems, that take into account context, from both the learner and the location, have a good potential to promote this effectiveness in a gamified process that transforms the regular museum exploration into an engaging experience that provides learning opportunities at the appropriate time and place.In this paper, we propose a gamified approach based on the concept of sticker album collection and its integration in an Augmented Reality (AR) mobile application. The concept of sticker album collection is quite familiar to most people, mainly from their youth, and is the main dynamic of the gamification design, engaging the learner to collect more stickers and progress in the exploration of the museum. As a pervasive solution, we do not use physical support, but instead, a mobile application to provide the learning experiences by uncovering the stickers using AR over the museum collection, in order to enhance the knowledge transfer and rewarding. We present a prototype developed for a boat museum where, digital stickers are obtained by overcoming challenges in the context of the exploration of the boats in the museum.Furthermore, we provide two evaluations fromexperts: a preliminary evaluation of user experienceand a gamification evaluation using the Octalsysframework.

“…Many traditional services such as telemarketing, television and advertisement are evolving into digitized formats. As smart devices are gaining popularity and usage, the exchange of information is no longer limited to just desktop computers, but instead, information is transferred through portable smart devices [3,4], so that humans can receive prompt and up-to-date information anytime. Due to the above reasons, data of all types and forms are constantly being produced, leaving the mass of uncorrelated or unrelated information, causing conventional databases to not be able to handle the workload in a big data environment.…”

HBase, a master-slave framework, and Cassandra, a peer-to-peer (P2P) framework, are the two most commonly used large-scale distributed NoSQL databases, especially applicable to the cloud computing with high flexibility and scalability and the ease of big data processing. Regarding storage structure, different structure adopts distinct backup strategy to reduce the risks of data loss. This paper aims to realize high efficient remote cloud data center backup using HBase and Cassandra, and in order to verify the high efficiency backup they have applied Thrift Java for cloud data center to take a stress test by performing strictly data read/write and remote database backup in the large amounts of data. Finally, in terms of the effectiveness-cost evaluation to assess the remote datacenter backup, a cost-performance ratio has been evaluated for several benchmark databases and the proposed ones. As a result, the proposed HBase approach outperforms the other databases.

“…Object pose estimation has been studied over the past several decades and a wide range of technologies have been explored (Kyriakoulis and Gasteratos, 2010;You, Neumann, and Azuma, 1999;Kelly and Sukhatme, 2011;Ligorio and Sabatini, 2013;Satoh, Uchiyama, and Yamamoto, 2004;Faessler et al, 2014;Huang et al, 2011;Zhang, Fronz, and Navab, 2002;Zhou, Duh, and Billinghurst, 2008;Föckler et al, 2005;Höllerer and Feiner, 2004;Kovavisaruch et al, 2012;Schall et al, 2009;Fiala, 2005;ARToolKit 2010;Gómez et al, 2013;Jamal, 2012;Wagner et al, 2010;Olson, 2011;Klein and Drummond, 2004;Henry et al, 2012;Newcombe et al, 2011;Bruns et al, 2007;Chen, Chang, and Huang, 2014;Feldman et al, 2005), such as GPS, inertial sensors, magnetic sensing, and optics. Until now, determining the position and orientation of an object is still a complex problem with no single best solution.…”

“…Let us imagine the following application scenario: "In a museum, a curator wants to augment the exhibits with virtual contents, to be available for visitors through an application installed in their mobile devices. The objective is to provide a better visitor experience, an enhanced presentation of the visual information compared to traditional audio, location-aware guides (e.g., Föckler et al (2005), Kovavisaruch et al (2012), Bruns et al (2007), and Chen, Chang, and Huang (2014)), simpler content selection, and interaction. The service interaction flow is designed to be as follows.…”

“…In particular, in recent years, an attractive application area requiring accurate pose estimation is Augmented Reality (AR) (Höllerer and Feiner, 2004;You, Neumann, and Azuma, 1999;Zhou, Duh, and Billinghurst, 2008;Föckler et al, 2005;Schall et al, 2009;Gómez et al, 2013;Wagner et al, 2010;Klein and Drummond, 2004;Bruns et al, 2007;Chen, Chang, and Huang, 2014). AR has been widely explored in training, entertainment, education, and tourism (Höllerer and Feiner, 2004) to facilitate a novel way for the users to interact with their surroundings.…”
