- Comparing OWL Semantics
- The OWL Web Ontology Language is endowed with two model theories, reflecting its origins as a compromise between two different communities. By design these model theories give rise to very similar semantics, and a precise statement of the correspondence between the model theories is conjectured with a sketch proof at...

- SNZI: Scalable NonZero Indicators
- This paper introduces the SNZI shared object, which is related to traditional shared counters, but has weaker semantics. The paper also introduces a resettable version of SNZI called SNZI-R. The paper presents implementations that are scalable, linearizable, nonblocking, and fast in the absence of contention, proper-ties that are difficult or...

- A deeper look at Windows Vista's integrated search feature
- Next Level Needed - Users' SemanticsNow that this nice search engine and interface is present in Vista, what is needed next is either a Microsoft or a third party Semantics Inventory (which I've also called an Intelligence Inventory - II for short, in my work). I submitted this suggestion...

- Typed Parametric Polymorphism for Aspects
- This paper studies the incorporation of generic types in aspect languages. Since advice acts like method update, such a study has to accommodate the subtleties of the interaction of classes, polymorphism and aspects. Indeed, simple examples demonstrate that current aspect compiling techniques do not avoid runtime type errors. The paper...

- GNU make problem with foreach construct
- I've been having difficulties using the "foreach" construct in GNU make, and I'm hoping someone has some insight to help me understand why I can't get consistently productive behavior from it. In the Make manual section 8.8 it says the "eval" function may be used to create new rules,...

- LBase: A tool to generalize the Semantic Web
- The Semantic Web is a vision for the future of the Web in which information is given explicit meaning, making it easier for machines to automatically process and integrate information available on the Web. The Semantic Web will build on XML's ability to define customized tagging schemes and the resource...

- A Calculus of Untyped Aspect-Oriented Programs
- Aspects have emerged as a powerful tool in the design and development of systems, allowing for the encapsulation of program transformations. The dynamic semantics of aspects is typically specified by appealing to an underlying object-oriented language via a compiler transformation known as weaving. This treatment is unsatisfactory for several reasons....

- The Yin/Yang Web: A Unified Model for XML Syntax and RDF Semantics
- XML is the W3C standard document format for writing and exchanging information on the Web. RDF is the W3C standard model for describing the semantics and reasoning about information on the Web. Unfortunately, RDF and XML - although very close to each other - are based on two different paradigms....

- Computing Semantic Similarity Using Ontologies
- Determining semantic similarity of two sets of words that describe two entities is an important problem in web mining search and recommendation systems, targeted advertisement and domains that need semantic content matching. Traditional Information Retrieval approaches, even when extended to include semantics by performing the similarity comparison on concepts instead...

- The JCilk Language for Multithreaded Computing
- JCilk extends the Java language to provide call-return semantics for multithreading, much as Cilk does for C. Java's built-in thread model does not support the passing of exceptions or return values from one thread back to the "parent" thread that created it. JCilk imports Cilk's fork-join primitives spawn and sync...

- Data Semantics in Location-Based Services
- This paper analyzes and registers the data semantics of Location-based Services LBS. A careful look across the different LBS described by the GSM Group, shows that objects position, location, movement, as well as time characterize all of them, whether, for example, one talks about a tourist LBS or a traffic...

- Towards a Semantic Event-Based Service-Oriented Architecture
- Service-Oriented Architecture SOA is commonly lauded as a silver bullet for Enterprise Application Integration, inter-organizational business processes implementation, and even as a general solution for the development of all complex Web-oriented applications. However, SOA without semantic descriptions of its data, processes and messaging models fails to achieve a truly flexible...

- Credential Based Access Control for Semantic Web Services
- With the advent of the Semantic Web, Web services have gained even more importance. Semantic Web techniques, especially ontologies, allow to describe Web services with more machine understandable semantics, thus enabling new features like automatic composition, simulation and discovery of Web services. This paper makes a contribution to the proof...

- Access Control Policies in (Semantic) Service-Oriented Architecture
- There is a huge amount of projects and research groups that try to elaborate the Service-Oriented Architecture SOA to a more advanced level by applying the vision and standards of Semantic Web. The industrial adoption of semantic Web services SWSs is most likely to fail without sufficient security solutions. In...

- Network Intrusion Detection: Evasion, Traffic Normalization, and End-to-End Protocol Semantics
- A fundamental problem for network intrusion detection systems is the ability of a skilled attacker to evade detection by exploiting ambiguities in the traffic stream as seen by the monitor. This paper discusses the viability of addressing this problem by introducing a new network forwarding element called a traffic normalizer....

- A Process Ontology for Business Intelligence
- This paper presents oXPDL, a process interchange ontology based on the standardised XML Process Definition Language XPDL. XPDL was introduced to allow process model exchange between information systems, most of which are based on proprietary workflow models. In its current form, XPDL allows only syntactic vendor-specific extensions without clear semantics,...

- Master the basics of Cascading Style Sheets
- HTML markup can be used to indicate both the semantics of a documents and its presentation. However, it's best to use markup predominantly for indicating the semantics of documents and to use a separate mechanism to determine exactly how information contained in the document should be presented. Style...

- Toward Engineered, Useful Use Cases
