The rapid deployment of computing hardware different from the traditional CPU+RAM model in data centers around the world mandates a change in the design of event generators for the Large Hadron Collider, in order to provide economically and…
The CEDAR collaboration is extending and combining the JetWeb and HepData systems to provide a single service for tuning and validating models of high-energy physics processes. The centrepiece of this activity is the fitting by JetWeb of…
XML is a standard and universal language for representing information. XML processing is supported by two key frameworks: DOM and SAX. SAX is efficient, but leaves the developer to encode much of the processing. This paper introduces a…
While there exist approaches to integrate heterogeneous data using semantic models, such semantic models can typically not be used by existing software tools. Many software tools - especially in engineering - only have options to import and…
Many data structures support dictionaries, also known as maps or associative arrays, which store and manage a set of key-value pairs. A \emph{multimap} is generalization that allows multiple values to be associated with the same key. For…
This white paper is the product of a joint Digital Public Library of America (DPLA)-Europeana working group organized to develop minimum rights statement metadata standards for organizations that contribute to DPLA and Europeana. This white…
Computer system log data is commonly used in system monitoring, performance characteristic investigation, workflow modeling and anomaly detection. Log data is inherently unstructured or semi-structured, which makes it harder to understand…
Documenting frameworks provides its users and maintainers useful information on that software's architecture, design, and customization. Despite documentation's importance, the process of creating and maintaining it is considered to imply…
Coded caching is a technique that generalizes conventional caching and promises significant reductions in traffic over caching networks. However, the basic coded caching scheme requires that each file hosted in the server be partitioned…
Process event data is usually stored either in a sequential process event log or in a relational database. While the sequential, single-dimensional nature of event logs aids querying for (sub)sequences of events based on temporal relations…
The proliferation of modern data processing tools has given rise to open-source columnar data formats. The advantage of these formats is that they help organizations avoid repeatedly converting data to a new format for each application.…
Document-level event extraction aims to extract structured event information from unstructured text. However, a single document often contains limited event information and the roles of different event arguments may be biased due to the…
Process mining has become a cornerstone of process analysis and improvement over the last few years. With the widespread adoption of process mining tools and libraries, the limitations of traditional process mining to deal with event data…
In this paper we present the design and implementation of POSH, an Open-Source implementation of the OpenSHMEM standard. We present a model for its communications, and prove some properties on the memory model defined in the OpenSHMEM…
The WARC file format is widely used by web archives to preserve collected web content for future use. With the rapid growth of web archives and the increasing interest to reuse these archives as big data sources for statistical and…
In this paper, we introduce a scientific format for text-based data files, which facilitates storing and communicating tabular data sets. The so-called Full-Metadata Format builds on the widely used INI-standard and is based on four…
Numerous systems for dissemination, retrieval, and archiving of documents have been developed in the past. Those systems often focus on one of these aspects and are hard to extend and combine. Typically, the transmission protocols, query…
With the advent of digital transformation, organisations are increasingly generating large volumes of data through the execution of various processes across disparate systems. By integrating data from these heterogeneous sources, it becomes…
NeXus is a joint effort of both the synchrotron and neutron scattering community to devlop a common data exchange format based on HDF. In order to simplify access to NeXus-files a NeXus-API is provided. This NeXus-API has been redesigned…
XML stands for the Extensible Markup Language. It is a markup language for documents, Nowadays XML is a tool to develop and likely to become a much more common tool for sharing data and store. XML can communicate structured information to…
