Design Principles for Internal Domain-Specific Languages: A Pattern Catalog illustrated by Ruby

by Thomas Cleenewerck - In 17th Conference on Pattern Languages of Programs (PLoP
"... Dynamic programming languages offer an infrastructure for the construction of in-ternal domain-specific languages (DSL). DSLs inherit the facilities of their host language such as the availability of libraries, frameworks, tool support, and other DSLs. When de-veloping an internal DSL, there are two ..."

Domain-Specific Languages: An Annotated Bibliography

by Arie Van Deursen, Paul Klint, Joost Visser - ACM SIGPLAN NOTICES , 2000
"... We survey the literature available on the topic of domain-specific languages as used for the construction and maintenance of software systems. We list a selection of 75 key publications in the area, and provide a summary for each of the papers. Moreover, we discuss terminology, risks and benefits, e ..."

Computing semantic relatedness using Wikipedia-based explicit semantic analysis

by Evgeniy Gabrilovich, Shaul Markovitch - In Proceedings of the 20th International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence , 2007
"... Computing semantic relatedness of natural language texts requires access to vast amounts of common-sense and domain-specific world knowledge. We propose Explicit Semantic Analysis (ESA), a novel method that represents the meaning of texts in a high-dimensional space of concepts derived from Wikipedi ..."

Ontology Development 101: A Guide to Creating Your First Ontology

by Natalya F. Noy, Deborah L. Mcguinness , 2001
"... In recent years the development of ontologies—explicit formal specifications of the terms in the domain and relations among them (Gruber 1993)—has been moving from the realm of Artificial-Intelligence laboratories to the desktops of domain experts. Ontologies have become common on the World-Wide Web ..."

A translation approach to portable ontology specifications

by Thomas R. Gruber - KNOWLEDGE ACQUISITION , 1993
"... To support the sharing and reuse of formally represented knowledge among AI systems, it is useful to define the common vocabulary in which shared knowledge is represented. A specification of a representational vocabulary for a shared domain of discourse — definitions of classes, relations, functions ..."

Learning and development in neural networks: The importance of starting small

by Jeffrey L. Elman - Cognition , 1993
"... It is a striking fact that in humans the greatest learnmg occurs precisely at that point in time- childhood- when the most dramatic maturational changes also occur. This report describes possible synergistic interactions between maturational change and the ability to learn a complex domain (language ..."

succeeds only when networks begin with limited working memory and gradually ‘mature ’ to the adult state. This result suggests that rather than being a limitation, developmental restrictions on resources may constitute a necessary prerequisite for mastering certain complex domains. Specifically, successful

Towards a Standard Upper Ontology

by Ian Niles, Adam Pease , 2001
"... The Suggested Upper Merged Ontology (SUMO) is an upper level ontology that has been proposed as a starter document for The Standard Upper Ontology Working Group, an IEEE-sanctioned working group of collaborators from the fields of engineering, philosophy, and information science. The SUMO provides d ..."

definitions for general-purpose terms and acts as a foundation for more specific domain ontologies. In this paper we outline the strategy used to create the current version of the SUMO, discuss some of the challenges that we faced in constructing the ontology, and describe in detail its most general concepts

The Application of Petri Nets to Workflow Management

by W.M.P. Van Der Aalst , 1998
"... Workflow management promises a new solution to an age-old problem: controlling, monitoring, optimizing and supporting business processes. What is new about workflow management is the explicit representation of the business process logic which allows for computerized support. This paper discusses the ..."
Abstract - Cited by 533 (64 self) - Add to MetaCart
the use of Petri nets in the context of workflow management. Petri nets are an established tool for modeling and analyzing processes. On the one hand, Petri nets can be used as a design language for the specification of complex workflows. On the other hand, Petri net theory provides for powerful analysis

A Survey of Approaches to Automatic Schema Matching

by Erhard Rahm, Philip A. Bernstein - VLDB JOURNAL , 2001
"... Schema matching is a basic problem in many database application domains, such as data integration, E-business, data warehousing, and semantic query processing. In current implementations, schema matching is typically performed manually, which has significant limitations. On the other hand, previous ..."
Abstract - Cited by 1351 (51 self) - Add to MetaCart
research papers have proposed many techniques to achieve a partial automation of the match operation for specific application domains. We present a taxonomy that covers many of these existing approaches, and we describe the approaches in some detail. In particular, we distinguish between schema
