Building a Semantic Web Search Engine: Challenges and Solutions
Harth, Andreas; Hogan, Aidan; Umbrich, Jürgen; Decker, Stefan (2008)Current web search engines return links to documents for user-specified keywords queries. Users have to then manually trawl through lists of links and glean the required information from documents. In contrast, semantic ... -
Business capability-centric management of services and processes models
Derguech, Wassim (2017-01-11)With the advent of Industry 4.0, more and more companies are actively working on digitising their assets (i.e., services, processes, etc.) for better control, collaboration, modularity, analysis, etc. By 2020 more than 80% ... -
Cache maintenance in federated query processing based on quality of service constraints
Dehghanzadeh, Soheila (2017-05-09)The Linked Open Data (LOD) Cloud forms a substantial and ever increasing portion of the global knowledge on theWorldWideWeb by contributing many distributed data sources. Due to the diversity of the knowledge that they ... -
Cartilage repair in a rabbit model: Development of a novel subchondral defect and assessment of early cartilage repair using a rabbit mesenchymal stem cell seeded scaffold
Neary, Martin (2018-02-14)Purpose: To develop a subchondral defect in a rabbit model and assess cartilage repair using a mesenchymal stem cell-seeded scaffold. Materials and Methods: To achieve this goal, a bovine explant model and two pilot ... -
Centrosome cohesion: functions of C-NAP1
Flanagan, Anne-Marie (2016-01-07)Double stranded DNA encodes the genetic material of the cell. Replication and segregation cycles are regulated in order to maintain the integrity of the DNA sequence from one cell cycle to the next. Detection of lesions ... -
Challenges of post-measurement histology for the dielectric characterisation of heterogeneous biological tissues
La Gioia, Alessandra; O'Halloran, Martin; Porter, Emily (MDPI, 2020-06-09)The dielectric properties of biological tissues are typically measured using the open-ended coaxial probe technique, which is based on the assumption that the tissue sample is homogeneous. Therefore, for heterogeneous ... -
Characterisation of LCF performance of X100 weld-joints: Mechanistic yield strength modelling, finite element analyses and DIC testing
Long, D.J.; Devaney, R.J.; O'Donoghue, P.E.; Song, H.; Barrett, R.A.; Leen, Sean B. (Elsevier, 2021-03-26)This paper is concerned with the effect of welding on the fatigue behaviour of X100 material for steel catenary risers. The methodology includes both modelling and experimental characterisation. The modelling combines (i) ... -
Comparison of radar-based microwave imaging algorithms applied to experimental breast phantoms
Elahi, Muhammad Adnan; Lavoie, B. R.; Porter, Emily; Glavin, Martin; Jones, E.; Fear, E. C.; O'Halloran, Martin (Union Radio-Scientifique Internationale, 2017-08-19)Microwave imaging is a promising imaging modality for the early detection of breast cancer. The two most important signal processing components of a radar-based microwave imaging system are the early-time artifact removal ... -
Computational Homology of Cubical and Permutahedral Complexes
Hegarty, Fintan (2012-09-28)Homology is the study of connectivity and "holes" in spaces. The aim of this thesis is to introduce and develop a theory of permutahedral complexes for computations of homology of large data sets and to compare, using ... -
A Context Lifecycle For Web-Based Context Management Services
Hynes, Gearoid; Reynolds, Vinny; Hauswirth, Manfred (2009)During the development of context aware applications a con- text management component must traditionally be created. This task re- quires specialist context lifecycle management expertise and hence can be a significant ... -
Converging Web and Desktop Data with Konduit
Dragan, Laura; Möller, Knud; Handschuh, Siegfried; Ambrus, Oszkar (2009)In this paper we present Konduit, a desktop-based platform for visual scripting with RDF data. Based on the idea of the semantic desktop, non-technical users can create, manipulate and mash-up RDF data with Konduit, and ... -
A Conversation-oriented language for B2B integration based on Semantic Web Services
Gomez, Juan Miguel; Haller, Armin; Bussler, Christoph (2005)Establishing conversations in a B2B environment has significantly eased since the advent of standards such as RosettaNet and ebXML. These standardisation efforts have maintained some flexibility in defining interactions ... -
CORAAL - Towards Deep Exploitation of Textual Resources in Life Sciences
Nováček, Vít; Groza, Tudor; Handschuh, Siegfried (Springer Verlag, 2009)Prominent biomedical literature search tools like ScienceDirect, PubMed Central or MEDLINE allow for efficient retrieval of resources based on key words. Due to vast amounts of data available in life sciences, key word ... -
Cost-Aware Processing of Similarity Queries in Structured Overlays
Karnstedt, Marcel; Hauswirth, Manfred (2006)Large-scale distributed data management with P2P systems requires the existence of similarity operators for queries as we cannot assume that all users will agree on exactly the same schema and value representations and ... -
D-FOAF - Distributed Identity Management based on Social Networks
Kruk, Sebastian Ryszard; Gzella, Adam; Grzonkowski, Slawomir (2006)Contemporary Web consists of more than just information, it provides a large number of services, which often require identi¿cation of it¿s users. Since distributed or shared identi¿cation systems are not yet widely adopted ... -
D-FOAF - Security Aspects in Distributed User Management System
Grzonkowski, Slawomir; Gzella, Adam; Kruk, Sebastian Ryszard; Woroniecki, Tomasz (IEEE, 2005)The contemporary Internet offers various services ranging from electronic newspapers to on- line social networks. To authorize themselves, users have to register to on-line services. However, most of the ... -
Data and Process Mediation Support for B2B Integration
Zaremba, Maciej; Herold, Maximilian; Zaharia, Raluca; Vitvar, Tomas (2008)In this paper we present how Semantic Web Service technology can be used to overcome process and data heterogeneity in a B2B integration scenario. While one partner uses standards like RosettaNet for product purchase and ... -
