  • A 3-Tier Application for Topic Map Technology
    Proceedings of the 6th WSEAS International Conference on Applied Computer Science, Tenerife, Canary Islands, Spain, December 16-18, 2006 356 A 3-tier Application for Topic Map Technology A. PAPASTERGIOU, G. GRAMMATIKOPOULOS*, A. HATZIGAIDAS, G. TRYFON Department of Electronics, (*) Department of Esthetics Alexander Technological Educational Institute of Thessaloniki, EPEAEK II Sindos, 57400, Thessaloniki, Macedonia, GREECE Abstract: In the context of this paper the design and construction of a 3-tier application system for topic map technology is presented in detail. The proposed system employs Enterprise Topic Map Server (ETMS) that manages topic maps (TM) and establishes communication with client applications and persistent database. Yellow Web Services have been customized in order to achieve communication issues and exchange of TM. A client application is addressed to TM developers for editing and visualization of TM. Furthermore, the definition of TM Schema as well as the possibility to process rules and queries are supported. Another key aspect of the present paper is to analyze how different technologies utilized to formulate such a system. Key-words: Topic map, Server, Web services, Client, 3-tier, TM schema, Retrieval 1 Introduction definition of TM Schema as well as the possibility to The Topic Map model describes a mechanism for process rules and queries are also supported.

  • Mapping Topic Maps to Common Logic
    MAPPING TOPIC MAPS TO COMMON LOGIC Tamas´ DEMIAN´ Advisor: Andras´ PATARICZA I. Introduction This work is a case study for the mapping of a particular formal language (Topic Map[1] (TM)) to Common Logic[2] (CL). CL was intended to be a uniform platform ensuring a seamless syntactic and semantic integration of knowledge represented in different formal languages. CL is based on first-order logic (FOL) with a precise model-theoretic semantic. The exact target language is Common Logic Interchange Format (CLIF), the most common dialect of CL. Both CL and TM are ISO standards and their metamodels are included in the Object Definition Metamodel[3] (ODM). ODM was intended to serve as foundation of Model Driven Architecture (MDA) offering formal basis for representation, management, interoperability, and semantics. The paper aims at the evaluation of the use of CL as a fusion platform on the example of TM. II. The Topic Maps TM is a technology for modelling knowledge and connecting this structured knowledge to relevant information sources. A central operation in TMs is merging, aiming at the elimination of redundant TM constructs. TopicMapConstruct is the top-level abstract class in the TM metamodel (Fig. 1). The later detailed ReifiableConstruct, TypeAble and ScopeAble classes are also abstract. The remaining classes are pairwise disjoint. Figure 1: The class hierarchy and the relation and attribute names of the TM metamodel. TopicMap is a set of topics and associations. Topic is a symbol used within a TM to represent exactly one subject, in order to allow statements to be made about that subject.

PUB TYPE Reports Evaluative (142) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC03 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Access to Information; Computer Oriented Programs; *Electronic Libraries; *Information Retrieval; Library Automation; Online Catalogs; *Preservation; Standards IDENTIFIERS Digital Technology; *SGML ABSTRACT This report explores the suitability of Standard Generalized Markup Language (SGML) as a framework for building, managing, and providing access to digital libraries, with special emphasis on preservation and access issues. SGML is an international standard (ISO 8879) designed to promote text interchange. It is used to define markup languages, which can then encode the logical structure and content of any so-defined document. The connection between SGML and the traditional concerns of preservation and access may not be immediately apparent, but the use of descriptive markup tools such as SGML is crucial to the quality and long-term accessibility of digitized materials. Beginning with a general exploration of digital formats for preservation and access, the report provides a staged technical tutorial on the features and uses of SGML. The tutorial covers SGML and related standards, SGML Document Type Definitions in current use, and related projects now under development. A tiered metadata model is described that could incorporate SGML along with other standards to facilitate discovery and retrieval of digital documents.

  • Semantic Mapping in ROS XAVIER GALLART DEL BURGO
    Semantic Mapping in ROS XAVIER GALLART DEL BURGO Master’s Thesis at CVAP/CAS, The Royal Institute of Technology, Stockholm, Sweden Supervisor: Dr. Andrzej Pronobis Examiner: Prof. Danica Kragic August, 2013 Abstract In the last few years robots are becoming more popular in our daily lives. We can see them guiding people in museums, helping surgeons in hospitals and autonomously cleaning houses. With the aim of enabling robots to cooperate with humans and to perform human-like tasks we need to provide them with the capability of understanding human envi- ronments and representing the extracted knowledge in such a way that humans can interpret. Semantic mapping can be defined as the process of building a representation of the environment, incorporating semantic knowledge obtained from sensory information. Semantic properties can be extracted from various sources such as objects, topology of the envi- ronment, size and shape of rooms and room appearance. This thesis proposes an implementation of semantic mapping for mo- bile robots which is integrated in a framework called Robot Operat- ing System (ROS). The system extracts spatial properties like rooms, objects and topological information and combines them with common- sense knowledge into a probabilistic framework which is capable of in- ferring room categories. The system is tested in simulations and in real-world scenarios and the results show how the system explores an unknown environment, creates an accurate map, detects objects, infers room categories and represents the results in a map where each room is labelled according to its functionality. Acknowledgements First and foremost, I would like to express my gratitude to my super- visor, Andrzej Pronobis, for giving me the opportunity to develop my thesis in one of my passions, the robots.

(August 2011) Rhonda Thayer Dunn, B.S., Xavier University of Louisiana; M.C.S., Howard University; M.U.P., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. John J. Leggett A griotte in West African culture is a female professional storyteller, responsible for preserving a tribe‘s history and genealogy by relaying its folklore in oral and musical recitations. Similarly, Griotte is an interdisciplinary project that seeks to foster collaboration between tradition bearers, subject experts, and computer specialists in an effort to build high quality digital oral history collections. To accomplish this objective, this project preserves the primary strength of oral history, namely its ability to disclose ―our‖ intangible culture, and addresses its primary criticism, namely its dubious reliability due to reliance on human memory and integrity.

  • The Impact of XML on Library Procedures and Services
    The impact of XML on library procedures and services Eric van Herwijnen January 16, 2000 CERN, Geneva, Switzerland Contents 16/01/2000 1. Introduction open-2000-067 2. XML and its family 3. XML as the lingua franca for electronic document delivery 4. XML as a general purpose exchange language 5. XML as a language for describing data 6. Conclusions Notes Introduction In recent years, digital technologies such as the World Wide Web have revolutionized the way that libraries are used and organized. For example, in the High Energy Physics world, the omnipresence of the TeX text processing system and the availability of the Internet have achieved that all preprints are now electronically distributed and retrieved via the Internet. This development took both publishers and libraries by surprise. Now that the distribution of information is being taken care of by the HEP community, scientific publishers are forcing themselves out of this market by continuing to increase their journal prices. The organization of peer review is the only role left for the publisher and even this role could soon be taken away from them. Paul Ginsparg already claimed in 1994 that "certain physics journals currently play NO role whatsoever for physicists. Their primary role seems to be to provide a revenue stream to publishers, a revenue stream invisibly siphoned from overhead on research contracts through library systems..." If there are no more printed journals to store on shelves, the role of the library in the preprint publication process also becomes less clear. Since preprints are stored in full-text form, servers offer very good search capabilities, as good as those of a conventional library.
