Semantic Web Framework for Knowledge-Centric Clinical Decision Support Systems
"... Abstract. Lately, there have been considerable efforts to computerize Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPG) so that they can be executed via Clinical Decision Support Systems (CDSS) at the point of care. We present a Semantic Web framework to both model and execute the knowledge within a CPG to develop ..."

The PRISM/PRISM++ approach consists in providing the users with a set of SQL-based Schema Modification Opera-tors (SMOs), which describe how the tables in the old schema are modified into those in the new schema. In order to sup
Effective runtime monitoring of distributed
"... devices in the Internet of Things (IoT) and other data sources are increasingly bridging the gap between the physical and digital world by providing fine-grained data about real-world events. Enterprise software systems are adopting the paradigm of event-based systems (EBS) to enable them to react t ..."

Monitoring their global state in an effective way for runtime governance remains an open research challenge: providing

Focal Treatment of Prostate Cancer with Vascular-Targeted Photodynamic Therapy
"... Epidemiologic and pathologic features of prostate cancer have given rise to an interest in focal treatment for carefully selected patients. Prostate cancer remains highly prevalent, particularly in the U.S. and Europe. As screening programs have become more aggressive and widespread, a substantial ..."

In avoiding the morbidity of treatment, they accept the rare but real possibility that the cancer will progress and become less curable at a later time. An active surveillance program attempts to minimize this risk by requiring scheduled
