Diversity in engineering: tinkering, tailoring, transforming
(Academica, 2009)Diversity is essential for creativity and innovation, which are at the heart of engineering. Thus engineering can benefit from the richness and varied perspectives and expertise which individuals from different ethnicity, ... -
Adaptive semantic interoperability strategies for knowledge based networking
(2007)A Knowledge Based Network is a type of ontological content based network. As Knowledge Based Networks scale, semantic interoperability becomes an important issue since larger populations of users result in more heterogeneity ... -
Adaptive technologies to address operational complexity in highly configurable value chains
(2006)Existing B2B infrastructure is primarily focussed on the secure, reliable, and scaleable transfer of information between business partners. The time and effort taken to establish these B2B connections has meant that the ... -
Semantic interoperability for an autonomic knowledge delivery service
(Springer, 2005)The development and deployment of interconnected networks is being increasingly limited by their complexity and the concomitant cost of managing the operational network. Autonomic Communication aims to reduce this cost, by ... -
Towards a Managed Extensible Control Plane for Knowledge-Based Networking
(Springer, 2006)This paper proposes an open, extensible control plane for a global event service, based on semantically rich messages. This is based on the novel application of control plane separation and semantic-based matching ... -
Managing Policies for Dynamic Spectrum Access
(Springer-Verlag, 2006)The advent of software radio technology and the resulting potential for dynamic access to the radio spectrum presents major new challenges in managing that access. These challenges arise from the likely spread of spectrum ... -
Benchmarking Knowledge-based Context Delivery System
(2006)As context-aware systems become more widespread and mobile there is an increasing need for a common distributed event platform for gathering context information and delivering to context-aware applications. The likely ... -
Adaptive architectures to support highly configurable value chains
(2006)Existing Business-to-Business (B2B) infrastructure is primarily focussed on the secure, reliable, and scaleable transfer of information between business partners. The time and effort taken to establish these B2B connections ... -
Towards the knowledge-driven benchmarking of autonomic communications
(IEEE Computer Society, 2006)Currently a wide range of different adaptive and intelligent system solutions are being proposed for use in self-managing or autonomic networks. However, there are few means by which such proposals can be compared. ... -
Policy-based management for resource-specific semantic service
(IEEE, 2006)Semantic Web Services are the subject of intense scrutiny as they promise to address problems of dynamically discovering, selecting, composing and interoperating web services for e-commerce. However, there has been ... -
A proactive approach to semantically oriented service discovery
(2006)This paper proposes a proactive approach to web service discovery which contrasts the passive approach exhibited by UDDI. The paper describes how a content based network implementation (Siena) has been extended to ... -
Runtime semantic interoperability for gathering ontology-based network context
(IEEE, 2006)The trends for pushing more operational intelligence towards network elements to achieve more context-aware and self-managing behavior often requires elements to gather network knowledge without necessarily binding ... -
Ontology-based engineering for self-managing communications
(multicon verlag, 2006)Ontology-based semantics support encoding and mapping between separately authored and thus heterogeneous knowledge, and is expressed in widely accepted standards (e.g. W3C?s OWL). It has been suggested that ontology-based ... -
Ontology-based semantics for composable autonomic elements
(2005)The complexity of modern communication networks requires an autonomic approach, where elements exhibit a degree of self-management which when combined provide a level of self-management for the network as a whole. The ... -
Trust Management in Online Social Networks
(ITB, 2007)The concept of trust has been studied significantly by researchers in philosophy, psychology and sociology; research in these fields show that trust is a subjective view that varies greatly among people, situations and ... -
User centric trust-based access control for ubiquitous computing enviroments
(IEEE, 2008)Given the diversity of information and services that an individual will want to offer and/or share in a ubiquitous computing environment, it is critical that the individual is provided with mechanisms to manage access and ... -
Multilingual Ontology Mapping: Challenges and a Proposed Framework
(The Society for the Study of Artificial Intelligence and the Simulation of Behaviour, 2009)A key problem in supporting multilingual information retrieval and digital content management is reasoning about overlapping context domains. Ontologies are currently emerging as representation techniques for overlapping ... -
Completely unanticipated dynamic adaptation of software
(Trinity College Dublin, Dublin University - Trinity College, Department of Computer Science, 2004)Dynamic adaptation of software behaviour refers to the act of changing the behaviour of some part of a software system as it executes, without stopping or restarting it. It is difficult to dynamically adapt software if ...
