Efficient resource and energy management is a key research and business area in todays IT markets. Cyber-physical ecosystems, like smart homes (SHs) and smart Environments (SEs) get interconnected, the efficient allocation of resources will become essential. Machine Learning and Semantic Web techniques for improving resource allocation and management are the focus of our research. They allow machines...
A smart space is a physical space with heterogeneous smart objects that collaborate and share information to perform tasks desired by users. Interoperability among smart objects is the key challenge in smart spaces. In this paper, we discuss a semantic interoperability approach for smart spaces introduced by the SOFIA (Smart Objects for Intelligent Applications) project. A semantic interoperability...
This paper investigates an extension to description logic based knowledge reasoning by means of decomposing and rewriting complicated hybrid concepts into partitions. An approach which automatically decomposes the whole knowledge base into description logic compatible and constraints solver, is presented. System architecture for knowledge reasoning is two-fold. First, complex description logics with...
As the abundance of web services on the World Wide Web increase, designing effective approaches for web service selection and recommendation has become more and more important. In this paper we focus on an approach dynamically offering services that fit the end-users' interests. To this end, we present a hybrid approach, coupling pure and classic collaborative-filtering methods and a semantic content-based...
Recent advances in the Semantic Web community have enabled processing and exploitation of semantically annotated data by a variety of modern reasoning methods. However, there is still a deep mismatch between the requirements for reasoning on a Web scale and the existing efficient reasoning algorithms over restricted subsets. Fulfilment of those requirements can be greatly achieved by applying special...
