This paper presents AdaChain, a learning-based blockchain framework that adaptively chooses the best permissioned blockchain architecture in order to optimize effective throughput for dynamic transaction workloads. AdaChain addresses the…
Trust models are essential components of networks of any nature, as they refer to confidence frameworks to evaluate and verify if their participants act reliably and fairly. They are necessary to any social, organizational, or computer…
Blockchain technology is a distributed, decentralized, and immutable ledger system. It is the platform of choice for managing smart contract transactions (SCTs). Smart contracts are self-executing codes of agreement between interested…
The circular economy has the potential to increase resource efficiency and minimize waste through the 4R framework of reducing, reusing, recycling, and recovering. Blockchain technology is currently considered a valuable aid in the…
Machine learning models offer the capability to forecast future energy production or consumption and infer essential unknown variables from existing data. However, legal and policy constraints within specific energy sectors render the data…
This paper introduces a method to extract a hierarchical tree representation from 3D unorganized polygonal data. The proposed approach first extracts a graph representation of the surface, which serves as the foundation for structural…
Data driven approaches to problem solving are, in many regards, the holy grail of evidence backed decision making. Using first-party empirical data to analyze behavior and establish predictions yields us the ability to base in-depth…
We consider the problem of representing multidimensional data where the domain of each dimension is organized hierarchically, and the queries require summary information at a different node in the hierarchy of each dimension. This is the…
Graph domain adaptation has gained significant attention in label-scarce scenarios across different graph domains. Traditional approaches to graph domain adaptation primarily focus on transforming node attributes over raw graph structures…
$\textbf{Motivation:}$ Hierarchical data structures are prevalent across several fields of research, as they represent an organised and efficient approach to study complex interconnected systems. Their significance is particularly evident…
The cybersecurity of modern systems has dramatically increased attention from both industrial and academia perspectives. In the recent era, the popularity of the blockchain-based system has traditionally been emergent among various…
The shift from monolithic applications to composition of distributed software initiated in the early twentieth, is based on the vision of software-as-service. This vision, found in many technologies such as RESTful APIs, advocates globally…
The Semantic Web, an extension of the current web, provides a common framework that makes data machine understandable and also allows data to be shared and reused across various applications. Resource Description Framework (RDF), a…
In our today's information society more and more data emerges, e.g.~in social networks, technical applications, or business applications. Companies try to commercialize these data using data mining or machine learning methods. For this…
Large-scale production is always associated with more and more development and interaction among peers, and many fields achieve higher economic benefits through project cooperation. However, project managers in the traditional centralized…
Edge computing is a distributed computing paradigm that relies on computational resources of end devices in a network to bring benefits such as low bandwidth utilization, responsiveness, scalability and privacy preservation. Applications…
Blockchain is an incrementally updated ledger maintained by distributed nodes rather than centralized organizations. The current blockchain technology faces scalability issues, which include two aspects: low transaction throughput and high…
One of the biggest challenges associated with connected and autonomous vehicles (CAVs) is to maintain and make use of vehicles health records (VHR). VHR can facilitate different entities to offer various services in a proactive,…
We discuss long-term preservation of and access to relational databases. The focus is on national archives and science data archives which have to ingest and integrate data from a broad spectrum of vendor-specific relational database…
In many modern applications, including analysis of gene expression and text documents, the data are noisy, high-dimensional, and unordered--with no particular meaning to the given order of the variables. Yet, successful learning is often…
