  • Metadata for Semantic and Social Applications
    etadata is a key aspect of our evolving infrastructure for information management, social computing, and scientific collaboration. DC-2008M will focus on metadata challenges, solutions, and innovation in initiatives and activities underlying semantic and social applications. Metadata is part of the fabric of social computing, which includes the use of wikis, blogs, and tagging for collaboration and participation. Metadata also underlies the development of semantic applications, and the Semantic Web — the representation and integration of multimedia knowledge structures on the basis of semantic models. These two trends flow together in applications such as Wikipedia, where authors collectively create structured information that can be extracted and used to enhance access to and use of information sources. Recent discussion has focused on how existing bibliographic standards can be expressed as Semantic Metadata for Web vocabularies to facilitate the ingration of library and cultural heritage data with other types of data. Harnessing the efforts of content providers and end-users to link, tag, edit, and describe their Semantic and information in interoperable ways (”participatory metadata”) is a key step towards providing knowledge environments that are scalable, self-correcting, and evolvable. Social Applications DC-2008 will explore conceptual and practical issues in the development and deployment of semantic and social applications to meet the needs of specific communities of practice.

  • Program Verification with Monadic Second-Order Logic & Languages
    Program Verification with Monadic Second-Order Logic & Languages for Web Service Development Anders Møller Ph.D. Dissertation Department of Computer Science University of Aarhus Denmark Program Verification with Monadic Second-Order Logic & Languages for Web Service Development A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of Science of the University of Aarhus in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Ph.D. Degree by Anders Møller June 12, 2002 Abstract Domain-specific formal languages are an essential part of computer science, combin- ing theory and practice. Such languages are characterized by being tailor-made for specific application domains and thereby providing expressiveness on high abstraction levels and allowing specialized analysis and verification techniques. This disserta- tion describes two projects, each exploring one particular instance of such languages: monadic second-order logic and its application to program verification, and program- ming languages for construction of interactive Web services. Both program verifica- tion and Web service development are areas of programming language research that have received increased attention during the last years. We first show how the logic Weak monadic Second-order Logic on Strings and Trees can be implemented efficiently despite an intractable theoretical worst-case com- plexity. Among several other applications, this implementation forms the basis of a verification technique for imperative programs that perform data-type operations using pointers. To achieve this, the basic logic is extended with layers of language abstractions. Also, a language for expressing data structures and operations along with correctness specifications is designed. Using Hoare logic, programs are split into loop-free fragments which can be encoded in the logic.

  • Festschrift Honoring Rick Rashid on His 60Th Birthday
    estschrift for Rick Rashid F on his 60th birthday Rich Draves Pamela Ash 9 March 2012 Dan Hart illustration for School of Computer Science, © 2009 Carnegie Mellon University, used with permission. INTRODUCTION RICH DRAVES ou’re holding a Festschrift honoring Rick Rashid on his 60th birthday. You may well ask, “What is a Festschrift?” According to Wikipedia, a Festschrift “is a book Y honoring a respected person, especially an academic, and presented during his or her lifetime.” The Festschrift idea dates back to August 2011, when a group of friends and colleagues suddenly realized that Rick’s 60th birthday was rapidly approaching. In our defense, I can only point to Rick’s youthful appearance and personality. Peter Lee suggested that we organize a Festschrift. The idea was foreign, but everyone immediately recognized that it was the right way to honor Rick. The only problem was timing. Fortunately, this is a common problem and the belated Festschrift is somewhat traditional. We set a goal of holding a colloquium on March 9, 2012 (in conjunction with Microsoft Research’s annual TechFest) and producing a volume by September 2012, within a year of Rick’s birthday. This volume has content similar to the colloquium, but some authors made a different written contribution. The DVD in the back of the book contains a recording of the colloquium. I want to emphasize that we’re celebrating Rick’s career and accomplishments to date but we are also looking forward to many more great things to come. In other words, we need not fear his retirement.

    Jason Alderman – MS IDT Project Documentation Generating Comics Narrative to Summarize Wearable Computer Data Jason Alderman Masters Project Documentation Information Design and Technology Program Department of Literature, Communication and Culture Georgia Institute of Technology April 12, 2006 Committee: Michael Mateas (Chair), Michael Nitsche, Thad Starner Abstract As people record their entire lives to disk, they need ways of summarizing and making sense of all of this data. Comics (and visual language) are a largely untapped medium for summarization, as they are already subtractive and abstract by nature (the brain fills in the blanks and the details), and they provide a way to present a series of everyday events as a memorable narrative that is easily skimmed. This research builds upon the research of Microsoft, FX Palo Alto Labs, ATR Labs, and others to further ground the procedural generation in the comics theory of Scott McCloud, et al. 1 Jason Alderman – MS IDT Project Documentation Table of Contents INTRODUCTION.................................................................................................................................................4 STATEMENT OF PROBLEM..............................................................................................................................5 WIDER CONTEXT ...............................................................................................................................................6 WHY NARRATIVE?...............................................................................................................................................6
