Clinical summarization means the collection and synthesis of a patient's significant data, undertaken in order to support health-care providers in the process of patient care. Considering that medical information comes from multiple sources, a system for the automatic generation of problem lists could prove to be very effective in terms of saving time in the analysis of large amounts of medical data...
Avionics systems, along with their internal hardware and software components interfaces, must be well defined and specified (e.g., unambiguous, complete, verifiable, consistent, and traceable specification). Such a specification is usually written in the form of an Interface Control Document (ICD), and represents the cornerstone of the avionics system integration activities. However, there is no commonly...
Venn & Euler diagrams are well-defined mathematical diagram types, which are the major representation methods of Set Theory. Although understanding of different diagram types such as charts and coordinate graphs has been addressed, no research has been done for Venn and Euler diagram interpretation from an image. Venn and Euler Diagrams exist in various media types such as printed format in books,...
The use of digital games in education is already a reality, but their use in this area has been hampered by the lack of consolidated resources for evaluation of game-based learning. This paper reports a computational architecture for learning analytics in game-based learning that is based on relational analysis and data mining of data containing evidences of learning collected during the game play...
Recently, games have started to be used in the educational field to teach different subjects. In fact, according to different research works, educational games have made learners more motivated and interested in learning. At the same time, learning analytics is gaining an increasing attention because it supports evaluating the learner, the given courses and the learning environment. This paper presents...
Music and Emotion Driven Game Engine (MEDGE) is a music game engine capable of analyzing emotional content in music real-time. As such, its emotion recognition algorithm complexity is computational intensive. This paper studies the MEDGE performance in quantitative terms when it is ported to PS3's multithreading technology — Cell BE platform. We show the experimental results of the increased performance...
Pocket Data Mining (PDM) is our new term describing collaborative mining of streaming data in mobile and distributed computing environments. With sheer amounts of data streams are now available for subscription on our smart mobile phones, the potential of using this data for decision making using data stream mining techniques has now been achievable owing to the increasing power of these handheld...
This paper presents a two-level architecture for semantic P2P service discovery, which not only supports functionality-based service discovery but also provides flexible management mechanism for domain ontology. At the first level, a backbone is constructed on the basis of a category ontology, and the management task of domain ontology is distributed to the backbone peers on a per category basis....
In this paper, we analyzed the structure of PDF files as well as the characteristics of CORBA technology. By taking the information dump from PDF files to SQL Server as an example, the paper illustrates the application of heterogeneous database synchronization.
In the search of new architecture for distributed computing, peer-to-peer is studied as a new way forward. But, its intrinsic properties like the absence of centralized topology or the dynamic reorganization of the network make it difficult to reach high performances. Furthermore, it is not trivial to execute applications on an existing testbed which brings together a sufficient number of nodes. That...
In this paper, we present a architecture of grid, and propose some grid applications in network. Grid technology provides secure, fundamental methods for advanced distributed computing and data sharing over the Internet. The popularity of the Internet as well as the availability of powerful computers and high-speed network technologies as low-cost commodity components is changing the way we use computers...
In order to solve the problems which digital mine is facing, a solution of digital mine based on grid GIS is put forward in this paper. Firstly, the paper systematically introduces the grid and its architecture, and the concept of grid GIS; then designs the digital mine system based on grid GIS. Digital mine construction is one of the important means to maintain the sustainable development of mining;...
This paper presents fast hardware algorithms for channel operations in the Residue Number System (RNS) in terms of addition, subtraction and multiplication. These algorithms compare favorably with other popular algorithms due to the use of special moduli in the form of 2n - 1. They are particularly applicable for the largest channel or redundant channels in RNS.
The purpose of this paper is to propose an effective implementation of the Ant Colony Optimization metaheuristic on actual shared-memory parallel computers. We deal with the management of multiple colonies which use a global shared-memory to exchange information. We report considerable speedups on a SMP node of multi-core processors while witnessing solution quality equal or greater than the original...
Public logistics information platform, a unified and openness information platform, has logistics information as center, network as rely, assets as tie, and market as guidance. And grid technology can integrate the information isolated islands in logist alliance, share information recourses and solve cooperative problem from system level seamlessly. So the grid application in logistics field will...
With the resurgence of virtualization technologies and the development of multi-core technologies, the combination of the two becomes a trend. Therefore, inter-VM communication becomes a key part in how to improve the performance of virtual machines (VMs) basing on multi-core platform. In this paper, we first analyze the characteristics of multi-core tasks and the properties of virtual machine environment,...
For the open architecture of application platform and security issue of attacks, a new trusted application platform architecture based on trusted platform module (TPM) is proposed, the new architecture can achieve self-recovery while the trusted bootstarp failed and provide the identity authentication below operation system level. Through integrality measurement of TPM, trusted chain pass, trusted...
We analyze the problem of Trusted Network Connection (TNC) and descript Direct Anonymous Attestation protocol (DAA). A new key distribution scheme based on host integrity and identity is taken out for identity verify, host integrity checking and group key distribution. After this, we bring forward members join protocol and members remove protocol. At Last this paper analyzes the security of this scheme.
This paper is started from addressing the common automatic method of ontology construction. Then, from viewpoint of the military intelligent processing, the two-level domain ontology architecture is designed. One level is the keyword ontology. The other level is the instance ontology. Different level has different ontology architecture. At last, the domain ontology is constructed by reusing the existing...
Implementation of recursive equations using parallel computer architecture has long been of interest because the dependency problem makes it difficult to achieve significant speed-up. In this paper, efficient implementation of recursive filtering equations on partitioned data-path SIMD (Single Instruction Multiple Data) processors is studied. Especially, three parallel computation techniques, which...
