    Can models of author intention support quality assessment of content?

    No full text
    Academics seek to find, understand and critically review the work of other researchers through published scientific articles. In recent years, the volume of available information has significantly increased, partly due to technological advancements and partly due to pressures on academics to 'publish or perish'. This amount of papers presents a challenge not only for the peer-review process but also for readers, particularly inexperienced readers, to find publications of high quality. Whilst one might rely on citation or journal rankings to help guide this decision, this approach may not be completely reliable due to biased peer-review processes and the fact that the citation count of an article does not per se indicate its quality. Here, we analyse how expected author intentions in a Related Work section can be used to indicate its quality. We show that author intentions can predict the quality with reasonable accuracy and propose that similar approaches could be used in other sections to provide an overall picture of quality. This approach could be useful in supporting peer-review processes and for a reader in prioritising articles to read. © 2019 CEUR-WS. All rights reserved.Peer reviewe

    Service-oriented models for audiovisual content storage

    No full text
    What are the important topics to understand if involved with storage services to hold digital audiovisual content? This report takes a look at how content is created and moves into and out of storage; the storage service value networks and architectures found now and expected in the future; what sort of data transfer is expected to and from an audiovisual archive; what transfer protocols to use; and a summary of security and interface issues

    Static Validation of WS-CDL Documents

    No full text
    This paper presents an approach to validate WS-CDL documents statically. To deal with those constraints appeared in CDL documents, which cannot be captured by its meta model (XML Schema) totally, we design a machine-based constraint language based on B Method, which uses abstract machines to represent the constraints of the relations among XML nodes. After modelling the constraints, the corresponding checking algorithm can be designed to implement the static validation of CDL documents. Meanwhile, the checking algorithm is integrated into the WS-CDL editor plug-in for Eclipse project. The case studies show that our approach is effective for real examples in practice.

    Complex Event Processing Network Usage in WS-BPEL Processes

    No full text
    Biznesa procesu pārvaldības sfērā ir parādījies jauns tirgus virziens, kas ir orientēts uz reāla laika biznesa procesu pārvaldību (RTBPM). No citas puses aktuāla sfēra ir komplekso notikumu apstrāde (angl.Complex Event Processing, CEP) ar CEP dziņiem, kas ir attīstījusies neatkarīgi no biznesa procesu pārvaldības. Diemžēl šobrīd CEP dziņi maz tiek izmantoti RTBPM realizācijai. Autors paplašina CEP dziņa abstrakciju ar CEP tīklu, kas reprezentē notikumu apstrādes infrastruktūru daudzu sistēmu vidē. Darbā tiek sniegts uz standartiem balstīts CEP tīkla un WS-BPEL (angl. WS-Business Process Execution Language, izvēlēts biznesa procesu modelis) dziņa integrēts RTBPM risinājums, kā arī praktiska šī risinājuma realizācija. Galvenā risinājuma ideja ir ietvert CEP tīkla vaicājumus WSRF (angl. WS-Resource Framework) resursos, kas ļauj WS-BPEL procesiem saņemt notikumus izmantojot WSN (angl. WS-Notification). Atslēgas vārdi: BPM, RTBPM, CEP, WSRF, WSN, integrācija.Recently a new market segment has emerged in business process management which is oriented towards real time business process management (RTBPM). On the other hand a topical area is Complex Event Processing (CEP) with CEP engines, which has developed independently of business process management. Unfortunately CEP engines are used rarely to implement RTBPM solutions. Author extends the CEP engine abstraction with a CEP network which represents an infrastructure for event processing in a multi system environment. In this paper author provides CEP network and WS-BPEL (WS-Business Process Execution Language, selected business process model) engine integrated RTBPM solution as well a practical implementation of this solution. Main solution idea is to encapsulate CEP network queries in WSRF (WS-Resource Framework) resources which then allow WS-BPEL processes to receive events using WSN (WS-Notification).

    Ontology matching evaluation : A statistical perspective

    No full text
    This paper proposes statistical approaches to test if the difference between two ontology matchers is real. Specifically, the performances of the matchers over multiple data sets are obtained and based on their performances, the conclusion can be drawn whether one method is better than one another or not. To do so, the paired t-test and Wilcoxon signed rank test are proposed and the comparisons over six recently proposed methods are reported. © 2016, CEUR-WS. All rights reserved
