Adaptación de una aplicación RIA desarrollada en Flex a una aplicación HTML5

Babelium Project (tambi en BP de aqu en adelante), es un proyecto de c odigo abierto cuyo principal objetivo es fomentar el aprendizaje de idiomas online. Para ello, haciendo uso de distintas tecnolog as, se cre o una aplicaci on web, Rich Internet Applications (RIA), que permite a los usuarios practicar idiomas por pr actica oral. La aplicaci on dispone de varios m odulos donde, gracias al streaming de v deo, los usuarios pueden grabar o evaluar ejercicios de forma colaborativa. Babelium Project empez o siendo una aplicaci on desarrollada bajo el conjunto de tecnolog as Flex, un conjunto de tecnolog as de Adobe cuya compilaci on resultante es un aplicaci on (web en este caso) basada en Flash. Sin embargo, con la reciente llegada de HTML5, todo parece indicar que Adobe abandonar a Flex en un futuro 1 2 para centrar sus esfuerzos en el desarrollo de soluciones para esta nueva tecnolog a. Por esa raz on, naci o este proyecto, con el n de migrar Babelium Project a HTML5, conjunto de tecnolog as con gran futuro y acogida en el mundo web. Mi trabajo en este proyecto ha consistido, principalmente, en analizar la factibilidad y proceso adecuado de la migraci on de un proyecto de dimensiones considerables desarrollado bajo Flex al conjunto de tecnolog as que forman HTML5, teniendo para ello el proyecto Babelium como caso de prueba. Las fases principales del proyecto han sido: an alisis del estado de HTML5, an alisis de factibilidad, elecci on de un conjunto de tecnolog as para la migraci on, desarrollo de patrones de migraci on y, por ultimo, migraci on de Babelium utilizando dichas tecnolog as y siguiendo dichos patrones.

Improving Content Delivery Efficiency through Multi-Layer Mobile Edge Adaptation

This paper presents a novel architecture for optimizing the HTTP-based multimedia delivery in multi-user mobile networks. This proposal combines the usual client-driven dynamic adaptation scheme DASH-3GPP with network-assisted adaptation capabilities, in order to maximize the overall Quality of Experience. The foundation of this combined adaptation scheme is based on two state of the art technologies. On one hand, adaptive HTTP streaming with multi-layer encoding allows efficient media delivery and improves the experienced media quality in highly dynamic channels. Additionally, it enables the possibility to implement network-level adaptations for better coping with multi-user scenarios. On the other hand, mobile edge computing facilitates the deployment of mobile services close to the user. This approach brings new possibilities in modern and future mobile networks, such as close to zero delays and awareness of the radio status. The proposal in this paper introduces a novel element, denoted as Mobile Edge-DASH Adaptation Function, which combines all these advantages to support efficient media delivery in mobile multi-user scenarios. Furthermore, we evaluate the performance enhancements of this content- and user context-aware scheme through simulations of a mobile multimedia scenario.

Quantum Simulator for Transport Phenomena in Fluid Flows

Transport phenomena still stand as one of the most challenging problems in computational physics. By exploiting the analogies between Dirac and lattice Boltzmann equations, we develop a quantum simulator based on pseudospin-boson quantum systems, which is suitable for encoding fluid dynamics transport phenomena within a lattice kinetic formalism. It is shown that both the streaming and collision processes of lattice Boltzmann dynamics can be implemented with controlled quantum operations, using a heralded quantum protocol to encode non-unitary scattering processes. The proposed simulator is amenable to realization in controlled quantum platforms, such as ion-trap quantum computers or circuit quantum electrodynamics processors.
