Content-based recommender/filtering systems help to appropriately distribute information among the individuals or organizations that could consider it of interest. In this paper we describe a filtering system to deal with the problem of assigning documents to members of the parliament potentially interested on them. The proposed approach exploits subjects taken from a conceptual thesaurus to create...
Simulators are an essential tool for researching and developing new systems, architectures or protocols. They have played a key role in the history of the Internet and the Web. This paper highlights the view that the simulation-based research will continue to take part in the evolution of paradigms associated with the Internet and the Web of Things. In this work, we present a simulator whose ultimate...
