This compilation opens with a study wherein state of the art publications on Big Data Analytics are analyzed in order to create an updated classification scheme with several orthogonal dimensions of classification. These dimensions include stages of application, challenges, solution origins, specialization of technologies, purpose, ownership, data processing, data types applied and intended user types. The authors propose that we need an effective data extraction method to gather required data and present it in a meaningful form for further analysis. Next generation interactive data analysis with real time responses requires scalable complex data processing methods to generate meaningful insights. Thus, powerful visualization methods should be designed to allow users to generate reports based on various parameters in a comprehensible way. The authors also outline highly modular framework for the generation and realization of multimodal natural communication incorporating embodied conversational agents, male or female. The personification of the machine responses is achieved through automatic generation and visualization of co-verbal behavior, based on the behavior generation engine, and the physical realization via behavior realization engines based on Unity Game engines core. When a designer is confronted with multi-stakeholders scenarios of use in which the needs of one user group may clash with, compete or be orthogonal to others, the responsibility of sorting, prioritising and including user needs in the user interface solely remains within designers domain. As such, this collection proposes that in an integrated technology ecosystem, user interface designers must have the ability to to uncover user needs that may make an impact on peoples digital experience. The following paper analyzes the basic forms of the legal protection of graphical user interfaces in the European Union, describing the basic principles of protecting registered community designs. The authors deal with the copyright protection of graphical user interfaces, highlighting the advantages and disadvantages of such regimes of protection and their possible overlap. The penultimate chapter outlines the need, terminology, features, types, architecture, uses, and security tools available for data warehouse. The importance of security tools for data warehouse is greater than ever before, so the strategies, and economics of security measures are discussed and the types and effectiveness of security measures are evaluated. Lastly, the authors consider the problem of auto speed scaling scheme optimization for elastic cloud computing platforms. It is observed that there is a tradeoff between performance and cost, i.e., the highest performance and the lowest cost cannot be achieved simultaneously. To analyze this, a queueing model to study a vertically scalable cloud platform, i.e., a multiserver system with variable speed, where both the performance and cost can be characterized effectively.
We understand the importance of accessibility for all of our customers, including those with disabilities. While our website may not currently meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, Level AA, we are actively working towards compliance and constantly seeking ways to improve the user experience for all of our customers.
To that end, we have implemented a variety of accessibility tools provided by third-party app, AppifyCommerce. These tools include features such as keyboard navigation, high contrast mode, font resizing, and alternative text for images read focus, various cursor sizes. We have also incorporated tools to help with visual impairments, such as screen readers and text-to-speech functionality.
In addition to these technical solutions, we have also made a commitment to providing clear and easy-to-understand information on our website. This includes using simple and straightforward language, providing alternative text for images and videos, and including clear and detailed product descriptions.
We understand that accessibility is an ongoing effort and that there may be areas of our website that are not fully accessible. If you have any difficulty accessing our website or have any suggestions for improvements, please contact us at [email or phone number]. We will make every effort to respond to your request as soon as possible and work towards resolving any issues you may have encountered.
We also strive to provide equal access to our products and services, including our online store and customer service channels. So, we are always open to feedback, suggestions, and ideas on how we can continue to improve accessibility on our website and in all aspects of our business.
Our ultimate goal is to ensure that all of our customers, regardless of ability, have a positive and seamless experience when visiting our website and purchasing from our store. Thank you for visiting our store and for your patience as we continue to work towards full compliance with the WCAG guidelines.
