Personal ontologies have been proposed as a means to support the semantic management of user information. Assuming that a personal ontology system is in use, new tools have to be developed at user interface level to exploit the enhanced…
There is growing acknowledgement within the software engineering community that a theory of software development is needed to integrate the myriad methodologies that are currently popular, some of which are based on opposing perspectives.…
Semantic web information is at the extremities of long pipelines held by human beings. They are at the origin of information and they will consume it either explicitly because the information will be delivered to them in a readable way, or…
We describe an intermediate language designed as a medium-level internal representation of programs of the interactive music system Antescofo. This representation is independent both of the Antescofo source language and of the architecture…
Open source software is a rapidly evolving center for distributed work, and understanding the characteristics of this work across its different contexts is vital for informing policy, economics, and the design of enabling software. The…
This paper introduces a ROS Multi Ontology References (ARMOR) service, a general-purpose and scalable interface between robot architectures and OWL reasoners. ARMOR addresses synchronisation and communication issues among heterogeneous and…
The semantic mapping problem is probably the main obstacle to computer-to-computer communication. If computer A knows that its concept X is the same as computer B's concept Y, then the two machines can communicate. They will in effect be…
Semantic communication has shown great potential in boosting the effectiveness and reliability of communications. However, its systems to date are mostly enabled by deep learning, which requires demanding computing resources. This article…
As mobile devices have become the preferred tool for communication, work, and entertainment, traffic at the edge of the network is growing more rapidly than ever. To improve user experience, commodity servers are deployed in the edge to…
Intelligent Personal Assistants (IPAs) are software agents that can perform tasks on behalf of individuals and assist them on many of their daily activities. IPAs capabilities are expanding rapidly due to the recent advances on areas such…
The MMT language has been developed as a scalable representation and interchange language for formal mathematical knowledge. It permits natural representations of the syntax and semantics of virtually all declarative languages while making…
Over the last years, there has been a change of perspective concerning the management of information systems, since they are no longer isolated and need to communicate with others. However, from a semantic point of view, real communication…
Scalable user- and application-aware resource allocation for heterogeneous applications sharing an enterprise network is still an unresolved problem. The main challenges are: (i) How to define user- and application-aware shares of…
Since long, corporations are looking for knowledge sources which can provide structured description of data and can focus on meaning and shared understanding. Structures which can facilitate open world assumptions and can be flexible enough…
Understanding large, structured documents like scholarly articles, requests for proposals or business reports is a complex and difficult task. It involves discovering a document's overall purpose and subject(s), understanding the function…
In the Internet of Things (IoT) domain, various heterogeneous ubiquitous devices would be able to connect and communicate with each other seamlessly, irrespective of the domain. Semantic representation of data through detailed standardized…
Towns and cities are currently equipping themselves with a host of connected devices, with a view to transforming themselves into ''smart cities''. To manage this mass of connected objects, autonomous software entities, known as agents, can…
Use of web pages providing unstructured information poses variety of problems to the user, such as use of arbitrary formats, unsuitability for machine processing and likely incompleteness of information. Structured data alleviates these…
Enterprises want their in-cloud services to leverage the performance and security benefits that middleboxes offer in traditional deployments. Such virtualized deployments create new opportunities (e.g., flexible scaling) as well as new…
We present DISco, a storage and communication middleware designed to enable distributed and task-centric autonomic control of networks. DISco is designed to enable multi-agent identification of anomalous situations -- so-called "challenges"…
