Dorronzoro-Zubiete, Enrique (author), Rivera-Romero, Octavio (author), Giunti, Guido (author), Sevillano, José Luis (author)The lifespan of older people is growing together with their proportion in the population growth in the older population. This leads to an increasing need for support services for older adults who will inevitably experience a significant decrease in their cognitive capabilities and mental health conditions. Cognitive functions, including...book chapter 2022

Wenk, Nicolas (author), Buetler, Karin A. (author), Penalver-Andres, Joaquin (author), Müri, René M. (author), Marchal Crespo, L. (author)Background: The relearning of movements after brain injury can be optimized by providing intensive, meaningful, and motivating training using virtual reality (VR). However, most current solutions use two-dimensional (2D) screens, where patients interact via symbolic representations of their limbs (e.g., a cursor). These 2D screens lack depth...journal article 2022

Cardaioli, Matteo (author), Conti, M. (author), Tricomi, Pier Paolo (author), Tsudik, Gene (author)Ideally, secure user sessions should start and end with authentication and de-Authentication phases, respectively. While the user must pass the former to start a secure session, the latter's importance is often ignored or underestimated. Dangling or unattended sessions expose users to well-known Lunchtime Attacks. To mitigate this threat, the...conference paper 2022

(author)Non-profit organisations (NPOs) are one type of open data intermediaries connecting different actors in the open data ecosystem. They perform a number of activities, from requesting the government to open up the data to application development. Such activities can have an effect on open data usability barriers that other actors in the open data...conference paper 2022

Faber, Robin (author)Agent-based simulation models are rising in popularity recently due to their ability to model real-world problems in a wide range of domains. Inherent to these types of simulations is the fact that an enormous amount of data can be generated, which needs to be analysed in order to make the simulation useful. At the moment, the available tools to...master thesis 2021

Steenbergen, Merel (author)Self-sovereign identity (SSI) provides users of the internet control over their own data by letting them store it on their own device or in a decentralized way, such as on a blockchain. The Super App is an SSI application currently under development by the Delft Blockchain Lab, but it still lacks one of the core features of SSI, which is...bachelor thesis 2021

Li, Wenting (author), Cheng, Haibo (author), Wang, Ping (author), Liang, K. (author)Multi-factor authentication (MFA) has been widely used to safeguard high-value assets. Unlike single-factor authentication (e.g., password-only login), t-factor authentication (tFA) requires a user always to carry and present t specified factors so as to strengthen the security of login. Nevertheless, this may restrict user experience in...journal article 2021

Jansen, Celine (author)Nowadays, lots of geo-information (GI) is openly available. The value of this information lies in its use. Geoportals play an important part in allowing users to discover and access suitable data for their use cases. However, the user-friendliness of these geoportals is not as it should be. As the communicational layer between a system and its...master thesis 2020

Olsthoorn, Mitchell (author)For decades the idea of re-usable software has been seen as the holy grail of software development. But up until recently, there was more discussion about software re-use than actual software re-use. Even though most software uses the same blocks of code over and over again, almost all software is built from the ground up. Today, this situation...master thesis 2020

Carter, Celine (author)Baggage handling systems (BHS) are unknown to most people, but play a vital role at airports. A BHS is a system that consists of different subsystems, each with its own functions. It is important to make well-informed decisions about the BHS as early as the conceptual design phase, which is the part of the design where the basic solution, such...master thesis 2019
