In this paper, we review the technological foundations of the current Blogosphere. The review is primarily based on a largescale evaluation of active blogs. The extensive list of examined technologies enables commenting on a range of widely adopted standards and potential trends in the Blogosphere

We have witnessed great interest and a wealth of promise in content-based image retrieval as an emerging technology. While the last decade laid foundation to such promise, it also paved the way for a large number of new techniques and systems, got many new people involved, and triggered stronger

the applicability of current workflow (WF) technology. On the other hand, to support dynamic deviations from premodeled task sequences must not mean that the responsibility for the avoidance of consistency problems and run-time errors is now completely shifted to the (naive) end user. In this paper we present a

-Enhanced Linux (SELinux) prototype, to make the technology available to a wider community and to enable further research into secure operating systems. NAI Labs has developed an example security policy configuration to demonstrate the benefits of the architecture and to provide a foundation for others to use

The technology for building large knowledge bases (KBs) is yet to witness a breakthrough so that a KB can be constructed by the assembly of prefabricated knowledge components. Knowledge components include both pieces of domain knowledge (for example, theories of economics or fault diagnosis) and KB

. The findings suggest that interest in KMS across a variety of industries is very high, the technological foundations are varied, and the major

” with only few weblogs achieve very high level of readership while most weblogs garner little attention by the wide community. Furthermore, according to current research, such exponential distribution of popularity leads to popular weblogs becoming even more popular while less popular ones lose further

’. Information in the Blogosphere differs significantly from the traditional web content, hence requiring specialized technology. We present BlogScope (www.blogscope.net), a system for online analysis of high volume temporally ordered text sources, currently applied to the analysis of the Blogosphere. We

). In the military, moving objects database applications arise in the context of the digital battlefield, and in the civilian industry they arise in transportation systems. Currently, moving objects database applications are being developed in an ad hoc fashion. Database Management System (DBMS) technology provides

as expected remains quite limited. Foundational technologies that make routine the engineering of biology are needed. Vibrant, open research communities and strategic leadership are necessary to ensure that the development and application of biological technologies remains overwhelmingly constructive. P lease
