This paper describes a distributed calculation scheme for scoring relationship among documents. This scheme categorizes documents by using an algorithm which calculates a score value for the relationship between a category and a word in a document. The longer calculation time becomes when increasing the number of documents. Therefore, our scheme uses multiple machines. A master node divides a document set into several subsets, and it distributes them to each calculation nodes. Using this distributed calculation makes the calculation time short, and also makes the memory usage low.

In an university, students take an oral exam to check the understanding level. Especially, in a programming class, a student writes a program source code to solve a practice. Then, the student takes an oral exam. To support the ordering of the oral exam and the checking source code, this paper proposes a reservation system for oral exam. A student uploads source code files to the system. Then, the student is registered to a queue of the oral exam. The student can check the own turn because the own student ID is highlighted. A teacher checks the source code files and asks some questions to the student. Finally, the teacher grades the student and registers the grade to the system.

In this paper, we propose a location registration scheme using location-based Social Networking Services. Our system provides schedules of a teacher on a Web page. The schedule includes the classes, the meetings, and the official trips. However, the teacher might not have any time to register schedules or forget to register the schedule. Therefore, we need a scheme to register the schedule easily. One of approaches is the location registration. If a student knows a location of the teacher, the student knows whether the teacher is in the room or not. Our system register the location information by collaborating with location-based SNSs.

In this paper, we propose a method that estimates new tags from user comments on videos on the Nico Nico Douga website. On Nico Nico Douga, users can post tags and comments on videos. However, users cannot post more than 12 tags on a video; therefore, there are some important tags that could be posted but are sometimes missed. We present a technique to acquire some of these missing tags by choosing new tags that score well in a scoring method developed by us.

It is an important information that whether a person is in a room or not. In this paper, we propose a system for confirming attendance at work as a Web application. This system provides a information whether a presence is in a room or not. In addition, we can get a schedule of classes, meetings, official trips beforehand. This system also provides information about these schedules. However, it is insecure for us to open these information to the public. Therefore, our system limits a public range of the information. It changes the contents to provide according to the origin of access attempt.

In our previous work, we proposed a dynamic data reallocation method for Web-based multiserver Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game(MORPG) systems. This method handles the data allocation as a combinational optimization problem. It is solved by using a tabu search that is a well-known meta-heuristic algorithm. Our system has some Web servers and an additional computation server. The computation server solves algorithm and decides the data allocation. However, each load of server is not completely balanced. This means that some Web server might have free computing resources. We aim to use these resources effectively. Therefore, our system handles a Web server that has free resources as a computation server. In this paper, we propose a selection method of a computation server in the Web servers. The server loads might be predicted because the data allocation is decided according to the last server loads and the user requests. Therefore, our system predicts the load of each server and selects a Web server. This selected server acts the computation server and decides the data allocation for the next term. After that, the computation server predicts the server load and selects the next computation server. We evaluates the performance of our system by measuring the latency values for game users and the server loads.

This paper proposes a remote control system of Sphero using a web browser. Sphero is a robotics ball that is controlled by using a smartphone. A user can control Sphero using Android or iOS application. However, the user is supposed to be with the Sphero. We provides a remote control system as a web application. The user can control Sphero using a web browser. The Sphero connects to a smartphone and the smartphone connects to the web server. The smartphone is a relay station. The user sends operation commands to the web server using the web browser. The smartphone receives the commands from the web server and forwards it to the Sphero. The smartphone also sends camera images to the web server. The web browser receives the image from the web server and displays it. This means that the user can observe the state of the Sphero and control Sphero at a different place from a place that the Sphero exists. We confirm the behavior of our system and clarify some problems.

In our previous work, we proposed a load distribution technique and a dynamic data reallocation method for web-based Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MORPG) systems. Our proposed approach reduced the average server latency for game players. However, latency values varied widely resulting in some game players gaining an advantage over others. In this paper, we deal with data allocation and consider latency fairness in the form of a combinational optimisation problem. We develop an optimisation model in which the objective function minimises the differences in latency values and we solve instances from this model using an exact algorithm. Our model improved latency fairness and more stable server loads than the previous data reallocation method. Furthermore, it provides more stable gameplay using ten web servers instead of five.

This paper describes a near-optimal allocation method for web-based multi-player online role-playing games (MORPGs), which must be able to cope with a large number of users and high frequency of user requests. Our previous work introduced a dynamic data reallocation method. It uses multiple web servers and divides the entire game world into small blocks. Each ownership of block is allocated to a web server. Additionally, the ownership is reallocated to the other web server according to the user's requests. Furthermore, this block allocation was formulated as a combinational optimization problem. And a simulation based experiment with an exact algorithm showed that our system could achieve 31% better than an ad-hoc approach. However, the exact algorithm takes too much time to solve a problem when the problem size is large. This paper proposes a meta-heuristic approach based on a tabu search to solve a problem quickly. A simulation result shows that our tabu search algorithm can generate solutions, whose average correctness is only 1% different from that of the exact algorithm. In addition, the average calculation time for 50 users on a system with five web servers is about 25.67 msec while the exact algorithm takes about 162 msec. An evaluation for a web-based MORPG system with our tabu search shows that it could achieve 420 users capacity while 320 for our previous system.

Our interactive animation software is written in JavaScript, and is serial execution. However, it has a problem, which is related to drawing intervals. In case the software has to process a number of animation objects, it takes a long time. The longer drawing intervals are, the slower speed of animation playing is. So, we parallelize interactive animation software with Web Workers that is one part of HTML5. We partition drawing animation with some approaches, and parallelize their process. This time, we report the parallelization approach that takes into consideration the property of Web Workers and the interactive animation software. © 2013 IEEE.

Target documents are clustered with a result of k-means clustering method, in which cosine similarity is used to calculate a distance. This paper uses this algorithm to cluster twitter users. However, the twitter users have different characteristics from the research documents. Therefore, we investigate problems of the using our algorithm for twitter users and propose some ideas to resolve it. © 2013 IEEE.

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to propose a load distribution technique for a web server. It utilizes Web Workers, which is a new feature of Javascript. Design/methodology/approach: The authors have been implementing a web-based MORPG as an interactive, real-time web application
previously, the web server alone was responsible for manipulating the behavior of all the game characters. As more users logged in, the workload on the server was increased. Hence, the authors have implemented a technique whereby the CPU load of the server is distributed among the clients. Findings: The authors found that some caching mechanism is useful for utilizing client-side calculation. The caching suppresses the increase of communication load. A performance evaluation reveals that the technique plays a role in decreasing the CGI latency of both low-end server and high-end server. The average latency is reduced to 59.5 percent of the original system. Originality/value: Web Workers allows scripts to be executed with keeping the page response on a web browser. It is intended to be used for raising user experience. This technique utilizes Web Workers for a web server to distribute the load to its clients. © Emerald Group Publishing Limited.

In recent times, the web-based applications has grown rapidly and there has been an explosive increase in the number of users. Hence, it is necessary to develop technique to deal with several users. In this study, we particularly focus on web-based multiplayer online role-playing games (MORPGs), which have a large number of users and deal with high frequency of user requests. In our previous work, we introduced a method to deal with a large number of users using multiple web servers and a dynamic data allocation method to deal with dynamic change in the user request. Using our method, we achieved a user capacity of 320 for the web-based MORPG system as opposed to 200 user capacity of the single server MORPG system. However, we found some cases in which our dynamic data allocation role was not effective. In this paper, we propose three rules for our dynamic data allocation method to address various situations. We evaluate these rules using four web servers and investigate their properties and effectiveness.
