Linked Open Data (LOD) Cloud is a mesh of open datasets coming from different domains. Among these datasets, a notable amount of datasets belong to the life sciences domain linked together forming an interlinked “Life ...

Biosimulation models have been recently introduced to understand the exact causative factors that give rise to impairment in human organs. Finite Element Method (FEM) provides a mathematical framework to simulate dynamic ...

The explosion of digital content and the heterogeneity of enterprise content sources have pushed existing data integration solutions to their boundaries. Although RDF can be used as a representation format for integrated data, ...

Log files of online shared workspaces contain rich information that can be further analyzed. In this paper, log-file information is used to extract object-centric and user-centric social networks. The object-centric social ...

Data on the Semantic Web is semi-structured and does not follow one fixed schema. Faceted browsing is a natural technique for navigating such data, partitioning the information space into orthogonal conceptual dimensions. ...

Search engines focusing on particular media types face difficulties in discovering suitable URIs on the Web. Since the engines are only interested in a small fraction of the Web, a crawler should use heuristics to concentrate ...

In recent years more and more information has been made available on the Web. High quality information is often stored in dedicated databases of digital libraries, which are on their way to become expanding islands of well ...

We present an Annotation-Based Access Control model supported by a Collaboration Vocabulary (CoVoc) as a more flexible and user-centric access control approach in social platforms and shared workspaces. We present ...

Fair use policy allows legal owners to share products they bought with their acquaintance; it is based on the assumptions that the owners pass an original product and they cannot use it at the same time. In the digital ...

We present the architecture of an end-to-end semantic search engine that uses a graph data model to enable interactive query answering over structured and interlinked data collected from many disparate sources on the Web. ...
