The objective of this position paper is to present my research interest in participating in the workshop of the FOIS2004 and secondly, to systematise the reasoning process I undertook so far during the literature review for my PhD work. Hence, the claims r ...
This thesis presents the structural organization, theoretical foundations and basic application principles of Triune Continuum Paradigm, an original paradigm applicable to object-oriented modeling. The paradigm defines a metamodeling structure efficient in ...
Effective opportunistic search in visual interfaces for large information collections, such as documents, Web pages, and annotated images, often requires domain knowledge that the information seeker does not have. Relevant semantic information, such as met ...
We present here an explicit time-domain representation of any compactly supported dyadic scaling function as a sum of harmonic splines. The leading term in the decomposition corresponds to the fractional splines, a recent, continuous-order generalization o ...
OMGs Model Driven Architecture initiative comes at a time where information system builders and integrators have realized that application design and thus application interoperability is not primarily a technology issue but is about understanding different ...

Today the problem of semantic interoperability in information search on the Internet is solved mostly by means of centralization, both at a sys-tem and at a logical level. This approach has been successful to a certain extent. Peer-to-peer systems as a new ...
This technical report provides an evaluation of several possible languages and semantic formalisms that could be used in agent communication to play the role of a content language in the EU Agentcities.RTD project. The conclusions and background informatio ...
This paper describes a novel approach for obtaining semantic interoperability among data sources in a bottom-up, semi-automatic manner without relying on pre-existing, global semantic models. We assume that large amounts of data exist that have been organi ...
The development of business and information systems requires a significant amount of modeling. The current modeling languages and tools have difficulties supporting the modeling of systems spanning through multiple organizational levels. The use of inadequ ...
