The purpose of pervasive applications is to be invisible and to require a minimal amount of
user attention. But invisibility raises lots of hard challenges, blocking the long-awaited …

In this paper, we describe the work that has been realized in order to add autonomic
features to Cilia, an open source mediation framework developed jointly by the LIG/Adele …

Federated Learning has been introduced as a new machine learning paradigm enhancing
the use of local devices. At a server level, FL regularly aggregates models learned locally on …

In our daily lives we are witnessing a proliferation of digital devices including tablets,

Multimodal interaction can play a dual key role in pervasive environments because it
provides naturalness for interacting with distributed, dynamic and heterogeneous digitally …

Heterogeneity and dynamicity of pervasive environments require the construction of flexible
multimodal interfaces at run time. In this paper, we present how we use an autonomic …

In the context of pervasive environments, multimodal interaction plays a pivotal role because
multimodality provides flexibility and naturalness for interaction. The challenge of multimodal …

The highly evolutionary aspect of new application domains, such as pervasive computing,
demands new and more adaptable integration solutions. Those solutions should be flexible …

The Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) model fosters dynamic interactions of
