Abstract. We show how to specify and use the metadata for a virtual and relational data integration system under the local-as-view (LAV) approach. We use XML and RuleML for represe...
A novel description of protein structure in terms of the generalized secondary structure elements (GSSE) is proposed. GSSE's are defined as fragments of the protein structure...
In the minimum energy broadcasting problem, each node adjusts its transmission power to minimize the total energy consumption while still guaranteeing the full coverage of the net...
In this paper, we present a series of distributed algorithms for coverage verification in sensor networks with no location information. We demonstrate how, in the absence of locali...
This paper describes SKIMA, a mediation system that gives transparent access to heterogeneous and distributed sources considering their semantics and the semantics of application ...
