Ontologies: Principles, methods and applications

by Mike Uschold, Michael Gruninger - KNOWLEDGE ENGINEERING REVIEW , 1996
"... This paper is intended to serve as a comprehensive introduction to the emerging field concerned with the design and use of ontologies. We observe that disparate backgrounds, languages, tools, and techniques are a major barrier to effective communication among people, organisations, and/or software s ..."

systems. We show how the development and implementation of an explicit account of a shared understanding (i.e. an `ontology') in a given subject area, can improve such communication, which in turn, can give rise to greater reuse and sharing, inter-operability, and more reliable software. After

MediaBench: A Tool for Evaluating and Synthesizing Multimedia and Communications Systems

by Chunho Lee, Miodrag Potkonjak, William H. Mangione-smith
"... Over the last decade, significant advances have been made in compilation technology for capitalizing on instruction-level parallelism (ILP). The vast majority of ILP compilation research has been conducted in the context of generalpurpose computing, and more specifically the SPEC benchmark suite. At ..."

. At the same time, a number of microprocessor architectures have emerged which have VLIW and SIMD structures that are well matched to the needs of the ILP compilers. Most of these processors are targeted at embedded applications such as multimedia and communications, rather than general-purpose systems

The Ontolingua Server: a Tool for Collaborative Ontology Construction

by Adam Farquhar, Richard Fikes, James Rice - International Journal of Human-Computer Studies , 1996
"... Reusable ontologies are becoming increasingly important for tasks such as information integration, knowledge-level interoperation, and knowledgebase development. We have developed a set of tools and services to support the process of achieving consensus on common shared ontologies by geographically ..."

Ontology Mapping: The State of the Art

by Yannis Kalfoglou, Marco Schorlemmer , 2003
"... Ontology mapping is seen as a solution provider in today's landscape of ontology research. As the number of ontologies that are made publicly available and accessible on the Web increases steadily, so does the need for applications to use them. A single ontology is no longer enough to support t ..."

the tasks envisaged by a distributed environment like the Semantic Web. Multiple ontologies need to be accessed from several applications. Mapping could provide a common layer from which several ontologies could be accessed and hence could exchange information in semantically sound manners. Developing

Equation-based congestion control for unicast applications

by Sally Floyd , Mark Handley , Jitendra Padhye , Jörg Widmer - SIGCOMM '00 , 2000
"... This paper proposes a mechanism for equation-based congestion control for unicast traffic. Most best-effort traffic in the current Internet is well-served by the dominant transport protocol, TCP. However, traffic such as best-effort unicast streaming multimedia could find use for a TCP-friendly cong ..."

A Metrics Suite for Object Oriented Design

by Shyam R. Chidamber , Chris F. Kemerer , 1994
"... Given the central role that software development plays in the delivery and application of information technology, managers are increasingly focusing on process improvement in the software development area. This demand has spurred the provision of a number of new and/or improved approaches to softwa ..."

Imagenet: A large-scale hierarchical image database

by Jia Deng, Wei Dong, Richard Socher, Li-jia Li, Kai Li, Li Fei-fei - In CVPR , 2009
"... The explosion of image data on the Internet has the potential to foster more sophisticated and robust models and algorithms to index, retrieve, organize and interact with images and multimedia data. But exactly how such data can be harnessed and organized remains a critical problem. We introduce her ..."

Statistical pattern recognition: A review

by Anil K. Jain, Robert P. W. Duin, Jianchang Mao - IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON PATTERN ANALYSIS AND MACHINE INTELLIGENCE , 2000
"... The primary goal of pattern recognition is supervised or unsupervised classification. Among the various frameworks in which pattern recognition has been traditionally formulated, the statistical approach has been most intensively studied and used in practice. More recently, neural network techniques ..."

. New and emerging applications, such as data mining, web searching, retrieval of multimedia data, face recognition, and cursive handwriting recognition, require robust and efficient pattern recognition techniques. The objective of this review paper is to summarize and compare some of the well

A Measurement Study of Peer-to-Peer File Sharing Systems
