Grosof http://citeseer.ist.psu.edu/551089.html Abstract: We show how to interoperate, semantically and inferentially, between the leading Semantic Web approaches to rules (RuleML Logic Programs) and ontologies OWL/DAML+OIL Description Logic) via analyzing their expressive intersection. To do so, we define a new intermediate knowledge representation (KR) contained within this intersection: Description Logic Programs (DLP), and the closely related Description Horn Logic (DHL) which is an expressive fragment of first-order logic (FOL). DLP provides a significant degree of expressiveness, substantially greater than the RDFSchema fragment of Description Logic.

Hanneman, and Mark Riddle http://faculty.ucr.edu/~hanneman/nettext/ This on-line textbook introduces many of the basics of formal approaches to the analysis of social networks. The text relies heavily on the work of Freeman, Borgatti, and Everett (the authors of the UCINET software package). The materials here, and their organization, were also very strongly influenced by the text of Wasserman and Faust, and by a graduate seminar conducted by Professor Phillip Bonacich at UCLA. Many other users have also made very helpful comments and suggestions based on the first version. Errors and omissions, of course, are the responsibility of the authors.

Extrasearch.com Classifieds offer classified ads in 1225 categories and 196 countries. In recent years the term classified advertising has expanded from merely the sense of print advertisements in periodicals to include similar types of advertising on computer classifieds services. Like most forms of printed media, the ad has found its way to the Internet. Printed ads are typically just a few column lines in length, and they often filled with abbreviations to save space and money. Internet ads don't typically use per line pricing models so they tend to be longer. They are also searchable, unlike their offline brethren. Example: Entering the keywords Jobs by language would return all ads that contain the keywords Jobs by language. In 2003, the market for classified ads in the United States was $15.9 billion (newspapers), $14.1 billion (online) according to market researcher Classified Intelligence. The worldwide ad market in 2003 was estimated at $100 billion.

Thirty-two percent of American adults, or about 65 million people, do not go online, and it is not always by choice. Those who are currently offline have had varying levels of exposure to the online world. One in five American adults say they have never used the internet or email and do not live in an internet-connected household. At the other end of the spectrum, 53% of home internet users have high-speed access, creating a new divide among internet users. posted by Marcus | 4:00 AM Tuesday, November 29, 2005   Online Research Tools White Paper Link Compilation Online Research Tools http://zillman.blogspot.com/2004/09/online-research-tools.html I have just updated my Online Research Tools White Paper Link Compilation with lots of new research tools.

Fully half of all teens and 57% of teens who use the internet could be considered Content Creators. They have created a blog or webpage, posted original artwork, photography, stories or videos online or remixed online content into their own new creations. Teens are often much more enthusiastic authors and readers of blogs than their adult counterparts. Teen bloggers, led by older girls, are a major part of this tech-savvy cohort. Teen bloggers are more fervent internet users than non-bloggers and have more experience with almost every online activity in the survey. Teens continue to actively download music and video from the internet and have used multiple sources to get their files. Those who get music files online believe it is unrealistic to expect people to self-regulate and avoid free downloading and file-sharing altogether.

What is Gopher? (Gopher-hosted, via the Public Proxy). As the Gopher protocol enters its first decade of existence, its support among many major browsers has declined (Netscape and other Mozilla-derived browsers), or has been expunged entirely (Microsoft Internet Explorer), if the browser even ever supported it at all (Opera never has). To allow Gopherspace to continue to be usefully accessible in the coming years, since it's still definitely a viable and useful (not to mention lightweight and efficient) information distribution protocol, the Public Proxy offers a standards-based, effective Gopher<->HTTP gateway to facilitate access even when your web browser doesn't. My first Linkseries Internet MiniGuides were created in 1993 that listed all the major academic gopher sites located throughout the world!

To gain a better understanding of the key algorithms of the protocol, we have instrumented a client and run experiments on a large number of real torrents. Our experimental evaluation is peer oriented, instead of tracker oriented, which allows us to get detailed information on all exchanged messages and protocol events. In particular, we have explored the properties of the two key algorithms of BitTorrent: the choke and the rarest first algorithms. We have shown that they both perform remarkably well, but that the old version of the choke algorithm, that is still widely deployed, suffers from several problems. We have also explored the dynamics of a peer set that captures most of the torrent variability and provides important insights for the design of realistic models of BitTorrent. Finally, we have evaluated the protocol overhead. We have found in our experiments a small protocol overhead and explain under which conditions it can increase.

The goal of the journal is to provide a lively forum for the communications of original research papers and timely review articles on the use of supercomputers to solve complex modeling problems in a spectrum of disciplines. The emphasis will be on experiences with the use of supercomputers rather than on the exposition of computational results peculiar to a specific research topic. Software techniques that apply to classes of problems often cross disciplines; articles should focus on the exchange of such techniques, as well as present methods for analyzing, measuring and applying algorithms and solution schemes related to particular application areas. The scope of the journal is reflected by the specialties of the board of contributing editors. Sample topic areas include aerospace engineering, artificial intelligence and knowledge processing, astro physics, atmospheric research and meteorological forecasting, automotive design and production, computational aerodynamics, computer graphics and imaging, cryptographic analysis, economic modeling, implementation techniques and pragmatic software and architectural considerations, integrated circuit design, molecular biology, motion-picture graphics, nuclear fusion research, performance studies, petroleum reservoir engineering and hydrology simulations, pharmaceutical research structural analysis and computer-aided design, and theoretical and experimental physics.

Authors want to share new findings with all their colleagues, while researchers, students, and other readers want access to all of the relevant literature. However, the traditional system of scholarly communication is not working. Libraries and their institutions worldwide can no longer keep up with the increasing volume and cost of scholarly resources. Authors communicate with only those of their peers lucky enough to be at an institution that can afford to purchase or license access to their work. Readers only have access to a fraction of the relevant literature, potentially missing vital papers in their fields. Involvement by the academic community is critical in ensuring that efforts to reclaim scholarly communication for scholars and researchers succeed. Together we can develop a new system that meets your needs and those of future scholars and students.

MPMI publishes both fundamental and advanced applied research. In MPMI, 'microbe' encompasses viruses, viroids, prokaryotes, fungi, oomycetes, nematodes, and insects. The term molecular biology includes studies on biochemical or biophysical mechanisms, genetics, genomics, and advanced microscopy. Molecular analysis of relevant factors in the plant alone, the microbe alone, or molecular analysis of components that affect or modulate plant-microbe interactions may be the subject of a MPMI paper. Although most research papers report original, in-depth research, the journal also publishes short reviews that focus on rapidly developing areas of the molecular aspects of plant-microbe interactions. Now in its 18th year, MPMI covers the fastest growing area of plant pathology research. The online version of MPMI includes e-Xtras that provide supplemental material in tables and/or as additional figures and photos as well as color versions of illustrations that show in black and white in the print journals. Intended Readership: Agronomists, bacteriologists, biochemists, biologists, botanists, cell biologists, chemists, ecologists, entomologists, foresters, geneticists, horticulturists, microbiologists, molecular biologists, mycologists, nematologists, botanists, plant pathologists, plant physiologists, seed pathologists, soil scientists, virologists, and weed scientists.

QEMU has two operating modes: a) Full system emulation. In this mode, QEMU emulates a full system (for example a PC), including a processor and various peripherials. It can be used to launch different Operating Systems without rebooting the PC or to debug system code; b) User mode emulation (Linux host only). In this mode, QEMU can launch Linux processes compiled for one CPU on another CPU. An optional proprietary QEMU Accelerator Module is available to optimize the case where a PC is emulated on a PC. This module enables QEMU to run most of the target application code directly on the host processor to achieve near native performance. The supported host and target CPUs are listed in the status page. For full system emulation, the supported Operating Systems are listed here.

The general focus is on advances in computational solutions, techniques, and resulting discoveries in understanding biological and medical information that have applications in biomedical and pharmaceutical research and clinical/medical decision-making. While spanning the broad definition of these disciplines, the journal places particular emphasis on the growing areas of commonality and convergence occurring across the wide spectrum of biomedical data management and interpretation. In recognition that this convergence is in a state of evolution, the journal encourages well-reasoned extension of findings and discussion from one part of the informatics spectrum to other parts. More specifically, the scope of Applied Bioinformatics encompasses issues relating to acquisition, storage, retrieval and analysis of biological and clinical information, including: * Genomics databases and methodologies, with a focus on representation and integration of data sources, and presentation for biomedical and pharmaceutical researchers and/or clinicians; * Biomedical informatics relating to structural and functional genomics and proteomics; * Clinical informatics, including automation of protocol-based care and development of systems for the acquisition, processing, and interpretation of patient data; * Clinical outcomes analysis, including econometric and statistical models used to conduct medical outcomes research; * Informatics in pharmaceutical research, including computer-aided drug design and identification of drug targets; * Informatics associated with medically significant computational molecular biology; * Data modelling, with relevance to enhanced standardisation and sharing of data models across the informatics continuum; * Developments in computing methods and software, especially those with potential interest across multiple segments of the informatics spectrum. These areas will be addressed through: * original research (full papers and short communications) * reviews * application notes * professional commentaries. Applied Bioinformatics is targeted to informatics professionals, science and medical researchers, teachers and students interested in optimal management of biological and biomedical data through the bioscience and clinical informatics continuum.

The reasons for "opening" copyright, as well as the specific license agreements under which they are opened, are as varied as our authors. Perhaps a book was outdated enough to be put out of print, yet some people still had an urgent need for the information it covered. Perhaps the author or subject of the book felt strongly that books should be published under a particular open copyright. Or maybe the book was written collectively by a particular community, as in the case of our Community Press books. O'Reilly holds the copyright to some of its books; individual authors hold the copyright to others. Regardless of who holds the copyright, the decision to apply an open copyright, and the choice of license, is left to the author or authors of the work. Some of the licenses include the GNU Free Documentation License, the Open Publication License, and the GNU General Public License. The content of these "Open Books" is posted here.

Here is a sustained investigation into the human contexts of Information and Communication Technologies(ICTs), covering both research and theory in this emerging field. Authors Kling, Rosenbaum, and Sawyer demonstrate that the design, adoption, and use of ICTs are deeply connected to people’s actions as well as to the environments in which they are used.

Research based on qualitativemethods, and methodological commentary on such research, have expandedexponentially in the past decades. This is the case across a number ofdisciplines including sociology, social anthropology, health and nursing,education, cultural studies, human geography, social and discursivepsychology, and discourse studies. As the degree of internet in qualitative research is global, the scope ofthe journal is truly international as well as interdisciplinary,capitalizing on the current popularity of qualitative research methodsacross all of the social and cultural disciplines. The distinctive mission of Qualitative Research is to promote and debatequalitative methods in a broad intellectual framework.

The convergence of inventions in these disciplines, while welcomed by most, has led to some degree of trepidation of nearly all. Fear of the unknown emerges as we struggle to create meaning to the familiar tune, Red, brown, yellow, black, and white, all are precious. Does the all now include that which is quietly dividing outside the home of a warm uterine lining? Does the all include those who need, but cannot afford to have the transplant, implant, or new identity? Are the all those who affirm choice? Or, does the all exclude those who exercise choice? Do we say hello or goodbye to Dolly? At what point does the gray turn to the more comforting zones of white and black for us? Or, will it ever? And, perhaps more importantly, should gray disappear? These and other issues are but tips of a burgeoning field of ethical issues for which health care providers, philosophers, scientists, theologians, politicians, attorneys, academicians, and other professionals, in addition to the public are forced to grapple with. Hence, it is the purpose of this on-line ethical journal to provide a forum to inform ethical debates from a holistic worldview. Clearly, this approach demands a multicultural, multidisciplinary team of scholars open to challenges of their ontologies. While editors do not purport that readers will be left without a reasonable doubt regarding one's ethical quandaries, what is promised is the presentation of scholarly works known for their veracity and challenges to the commonly believed and generally accepted notions of truth and right. This philosophy demands the presentation of works which are not just expedient for the hour, but which form the basis of principles for the future. Works presented consist of clinical cases studies, poems, songs, art, dilemmas, ethical papers from renown experts and novices, and electronic bulletin board interactive chats, to name a few. Collectively, these varied forms of expression, while endorsed by some, will not be agreeable to all. What is promised though is a forum wherein expression of ideas is valued and encouraged.

These applications range from current awareness type of settings in keeping up-to-date with new information, table of contents alerts of journal articles, feeds based on a research query in electronic databases, and news alerts from different subject areas. Other library related use of blogs and RSS feeds may include availability of new books based on selected keywords, feeds based on new subject guides, creating simple blog entries for course related useful information, and announcing library related events such as the Scholarly Communications Speaker series. This presentation provides information on these applications and recommendations on how they can be implemented in any library setting. A particular emphasis on the Engineering Resources blog created for the College of Engineering and the School of Biomedical Engineering, Science and Health Systems is given to highlight a variety of information published so far.

The project's three-strand approach to its investigation included a survey, focus groups and user testing. The investigation revealed that there is much interest in the idea of using Internet search tools through institutional environments, although this interest is tinged with some uncertainty on the part of end-users about the exact purpose or need for presenting search tools this way. Presentation of search tools through institutional environments does, though, increase end-user awareness of what search tools are available and potentially draws them into using new resources. posted by Marcus | 4:00 AM Tuesday, November 15, 2005   phpDocumentor http://www.phpdoc.org/index.php phpDocumentor is sometimes referred to as phpdoc or phpdocu and is the current standard auto-documentation tool for the php language.

The scheme results from classification of the papers from the CiteSeer database. The EqRank algorithm did the classification. The only input for the classification is the citation graph. The number of the levels in the hierarchy and the number of the clusters is determined by the algorithm. Generally, there is no external parameters (e.g., a preset list of clusters) in the algorithm. The algorithm creates the classification scheme, and indexes the papers by the created classification; b) A number of extra attributes for the elements of the classification; c) Accessability of the classification in responses to search requests via display options, e.g., display as Tree of Themes, and Refrerence (Citation) Tree; and d) There are marks on the links (e.g., Hub, Authority, etc).

Applications of abstract notions of design and process to engineering problem solving would certainly redefine and expand the notion of engineering itself in the 21st century. This Journal of SDPS strives to be the repository of human knowledge covering interdisciplinary notions of design and process in a rigorous fashion. We expect and encourage papers crossing the boundaries back and forth in athematical landscape as well as among mathematics, physics, economics, management science, and engineering. Journal of Integrated Design and Process Science is an archival, peer-reviewed technical journal publishing the following types of papers: a) Research papers, b) Reports on case studies, c) Reports on major design and process projects, d) Design and process standards and proposals, and e) Insightful tutorials on design and process. It has been observed that most of the work related to design and process is interdisciplinary and until recently has been scattered in journals of many diverse disciplines. The objective on this journal is to publish state-of-the-art papers in this expanding field, providing an international and interdisciplinary forum for best work in design and process related areas. The audience of this journal will have a single source to stay current on new and quality work as academic research papers and synthesis on best-practices. Consistent with SDPS philosophy, the Journal strives to maintain an international and interdisciplinary balance by relying on experts from various corners of the world. Authors whose work are in the domain of interdisciplinary no-man¹s land with a flavor of design and process are encouraged to submit their papers to this Journal.

It allows a user to run a web site that offers high performance and meets huge demand, all for the price of a $50/month cable modem. Publishing through Coral is as simple as appending a short string to the hostname of objects' URLs; a peer-to-peer DNS layer transparently redirects browsers to participating caching proxies, which in turn cooperate to minimize load on the source web server. Sites that run Coral automatically replicate content as a side effect of users accessing it, improving its availability. Using modern peer-to-peer indexing techniques, Coral will efficiently find a cached object if it exists anywhere in the network, requiring that it use the origin server only to initially fetch the object once. One of Coral's key goals is to avoid ever creating hot spots in its infrastructure. It achieves this through a novel indexing abstraction we introduce called a distributed sloppy hash table (DSHT), and it creates self-organizing clusters of nodes that fetch information from each other to avoid communicating with more distant or heavily-loaded servers. Coral is not officially affiliated by New York University in any way. It instead was developed and is managed as a research project by the Secure Computer Systems group. Coral receives funding as part of the IRIS peer-to-peer research and development project, sponsored by the National Science Foundation. A preliminary deployment of CoralCDN has been online since March 2004. As of August 2005, it receives almost 20 million requests per day from about 750,000 unique clients.

These norms and principles include, among others, sustainable urban development, adequate shelter for all, improvement in the lives of slum dwellers, access to safe water and sanitation, social inclusion, environmental protection and the various human rights. With experience and understanding also comes the recognition that urban and shelter finance mechanisms are essential to poverty reduction and, also, that very little may be achieved without collaborative effort as expressed in partnerships. With these imperatives in mind and with a sharper focus on urban poverty and, in particular, slums as the most visible manifestation of urban poverty within the overall urbanization process, the UN-HABITAT strategic vision has been further refined, giving more attention to knowledge management, the financing of housing and human settlements and, particularly, to strategic partnerships. The expanded strategic vision is both forward looking and pragmatic, being consistent with social norms and political principles as well as with UN-HABITAT mandates, capabilities and partners¹ objectives. posted by Marcus | 4:00 AM Thursday, November 03, 2005   Domain Dossier posted by Marcus | 2:19 PM   XML Processing Model Working Group Launched http://www.w3.org/2005/10/xml-processing-model-wg-charter.html http://www.w3.org/XML/Processing/ http://www.w3.org/XML/ W3C is pleased to announce the launch of the XML Processing Model Working Group.

Deskloops does this by arranging windows along a virtual horizontal loop. At any one time, you'll see window open on screen as usual, but in fact any number of other windows, set on that loop, can be rotated in from left or right. A strip of thumbnails on top of the screen maps the loop's full content. This how Deskloops solves the increasingly pressing problem of limited screen space and does so by means of a new and intuitive way of re-organizing windows and applications and effectively thereby the computer's entire work environment.
