Distributed applications are a necessity in most central application sectors of the contemporary information society, including e-commerce, e-banking, e-learning, e-health, telecommunication and transportation. This results from a tremendous growth of the role that the Internet plays in business, administration and our everyday activities. This trend is going to be even further expanded in the context of advances in broadband wireless communication. New Developments in Distributed Applications and Interoperable Systems focuses on the techniques available or under development with the goal to ease the burden of constructing reliable and maintainable interoperable information systems providing...
Business Intelligence (BI) promises an organization the capability of collecting and analyzing internal and external data to generate knowledge and value, providing decision support at the strategic, tactical, and operational levels. Business Intelligence is now impacted by the Big Data phenomena and the evolution of society and users, and needs to take into account high-level semantics, reasoning about unstructured and structured data, and to provide a simplified access and better understanding of diverse BI tools accessible trough mobile devices. In particular, BI applications must cope with additional heterogeneous (often Web-based) sources, e.g., from social networks, blogs, competitorsâ...
Annotation. The book captures the latest developments in the areas of knowledge engineering and software engineering. Particular emphasis is placed upon applying knowledge-based methods to software engineering problems. The Conference, from which the papers are coming, originated in order to provide a forum in which the latest developments in the field of knowledge-based software engineering could be discussed. Although initially targeting scientists from Japan, the CIS countries and countries in Central and Eastern Europe, the authors come from many countries throughout the world. JCKBSE 2002 continues with this tradition and is anticipating even wider international participation. Furthermore, the scope of the conference as indicated by its topics has been updated to reflect the recent development in all the three covered areas, i.e. knowledge engineering, software engineering, and knowledge based software engineering.
This volume contains the proceedings of the Fourth International Conference on Advances in Information Systems (ADVIS) held in Izmir, Turkey, October, 18-20, 2006. This is the fourth conference dedicated to the memory of Professor Esen Ozkarahan, who was one of the pioneers of database machine research and a founder of database systems in Turkey. The main goal of the conference is to bring together researchers from all around the world working in di?erent areas of information systems to share new ideas and represent their latest results. This time we received 120 submissions from 27 countries.The Program Committee selected 38 papers for presentation at the conference. The invited and accepte...
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed conference proceedings of the 6th International Workshop on Business Intelligence for the Real-Time Enterprise, BIRTE 2012, held in Istanbul, Turkey, in August 2012, in conjunction with VLDB 2012, the International Conference on Very Large Data Bases. The BIRTE workshop series provides a forum to discuss and advance the science and engineering enabling real-time business intelligence and the novel applications that build on these foundational techniques. This volume contains ten research papers, which were carefully reviewed and selected from 13 submissions.
This book contains the best papers of the 8th International Conference on Enterprise Information Systems (ICEIS 2006), held in the city of Paphos (Cyprus), organized by the Institute for Systems and Technologies of Information, Control and Communication (INSTICC) in collaboration with the University of Cyprus, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki and Athens University of Economics and Business. ICEIS has become a major point of contact between research scientists, engineers and practitioners in the area of business applications of information systems. This year, five simultaneous tracks were held, covering different aspects related to enterprise computing, including: “Databases and Informa...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Model and Data Engineering, MEDI 2019, held in Toulouse, France, in October 2019. The 11 full papers and 7 short papers presented in this book were carefully reviewed and selected from 41 submissions. The papers cover broad research areas on both theoretical, systems and practical aspects. Some papers include mining complex databases, concurrent systems, machine learning, swarm optimization, query processing, semantic web, graph databases, formal methods, model-driven engineering, blockchain, cyber physical systems, IoT applications, and smart systems.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 10th IEEE International Conference Beyond Databases, Architectures, and Structures, BDAS 2014, held in Ustron, Poland, in May 2014. This book consists of 56 carefully revised selected papers that are assigned to 11 thematic groups: query languages, transactions and query optimization; data warehousing and big data; ontologies and semantic web; computational intelligence and data mining; collective intelligence, scheduling, and parallel processing; bioinformatics and biological data analysis; image analysis and multimedia mining; security of database systems; spatial data analysis; applications of database systems; Web and XML in database systems.
The purpose of the 7th International Conference on Enterprise Information Systems (ICEIS) was to bring together researchers, engineers and practitioners interested in the advances and business applications of information systems. ICEIS focuses on real world applications, therefore authors were asked to highlight the benefits of Information Technology for industry and services. Papers included in the book are the best papers presented at the conference.
