    Levis, P., Brewer, E., Culler, D., Gay, D., Madden, S., Patel, N., Polastre, J., Shenker, S., Szewczyk, R. & Woo, A. The Emergence of a Networking Primitive in Wireless Sensor Networks 2008 Communications of the ACM
    Vol. 51(7), pp. 99-106 
    article URL 
    Abstract: The wireless sensor network community approached networking abstractions as an open question, allowing answers to emerge with time and experience. The Trickle algorithm has become a basic mechanism used in numerous protocols and systems. Trickle brings nodes to eventual consistency quickly and efficiently while remaining remarkably robust to variations in network density, topology, and dynamics. Instead of flooding a network with packets, Trickle uses a polite gossip policy to control send rates so each node hears just enough packets to stay consistent. This simple mechanism enables Trickle to scale to 1000-fold changes in network density, reach consistency in seconds, and require only a few bytes of state yet impose a maintenance cost of a few sends an hour. Originally designed for disseminating new code, experience has shown Trickle to have much broader applicability, including route maintenance and neighbor discovery. This paper provides an overview of the research challenges wireless sensor networks face, describes the Trickle algorithm, and outlines several ways it is used today.

    Wilde, E. & Glushko, R.J. XML Fever 2008 Communications of the ACM
    Vol. 51(7), pp. 40-46 
    article URL 
    Abstract: Don't let delusions about XML develop into a virulent strain of XML fever. he Extensible Markup Language (XML), which just celebrated its 10th birthday, is one of the big success stories of the Web. Apart from basic Web technologies (URIs, HTTP, and HTML) and the advanced scripting driving the Web 2.0 wave, XML is by far the most successful and ubiquitous Web technology. With great power, however, comes great responsibility, so while XML's success is well earned as the first truly universal standard for structured data, it must now deal with numerous problems that have grown up around it. These are not entirely the fault of XML itself, but instead can be attributed to exaggerated claims and ideas of what XML is and what it can do.

    This article is about the lessons gleaned from learning XML, from teaching XML, from dealing with overly optimistic assumptions about XML's powers, and from helping XML users in the real world recover from these misconceptions.

    Wilks, Y. The Semantic Web: Apotheosis of Annotation, but What Are Its Semantics? 2008 Intelligent Systems
    Vol. 23(3), pp. 41-49 
    article URL 
    Abstract: This article discusses what kind of entity the proposed Semantic Web (SW) is, principally by reference to the relationship of natural language structure to knowledge representation (KR). There are three distinct views on this issue. The first is that the SW is basically a renaming of the traditional AI KR task, with all its problems and challenges. The second view is that the SW will be, at a minimum, the World Wide Web with its constituent documents annotated so as to yield their content, or meaning structure, more directly. This view makes natural language processing central as the procedural bridge from texts to KR, usually via some form of automated information extraction. The third view is that the SW is about trusted databases as the foundation of a system of Web processes and services. There's also a fourth view, which is much more difficult to define and discuss: If the SW just keeps moving as an engineering development and is lucky, then real problems won't arise. This article is part of a special issue called Semantic Web Update.

    Winner, H. Mit aktiven Sensoren das Kfz-Umfeld erfassen -- Funktion und Leistungsfähigkeit von Radar & Co 2007 it -- Information Technology
    Vol. 49(1), pp. 17-24 
    article URL 
    Abstract: Aktive Umfeldsensoren senden aktiv Strahlung aus. Die Rückstreuung dieser Strahlung ermöglicht die Erkennung von Umfeldobjekten und die Messung von Abstand und Raumlage. Die spezifischen Funktionsweisen der im Kraftfahrzeugbereich eingesetzten Sensorprinzipien mit Ultraschall, Licht- und mm-Wellen werden in diesem Beitrag beleuchtet. Die Weiterverarbeitung der Signale und Konzepte für eine Sensordatenfusion werden vorgestellt. Abschließend werden einige der nichtfunktionalen, aber oftmals erfolgsentscheidenden Kriterien für den Einsatz im Automobil angesprochen.

    Detecting the Automotive Surrounding with Active Sensors -- Function and Capabilities of Radar & Co.: Active surroundings sensors emit rays actively. Back-scattering these rays enables the detection of surrounding objects and measurement of range and position. The specific kind of function of the current automotive surrounding sensors are illustrated in the course of this paper. The basics of processing and concepts for sensor data fusion are presented. Some of the non-functional criteria are discussed at the end. They are prerequisites for a successful equipment in automobiles

    Abstract: The goal of this poster is to describe our implementation of a new architecture enabling efficient integration between mobile phone applications and Web Services. Using this architecture, we have implemented a mobile shopping assistant described further. In order to build this architecture, we designed an innovative XML compression mechanism to facilitate data exchange between mobile phones and Web Services. We also designed a smart connection manager to control asynchronous communication for all possible channels of a mobile phone. In addition, we used diverse input modes in order to extend users' access to Web Services.

    Abstract: Home networked devices enable a wide range of daily activities including multiplayer gaming, movie downloading, and music streaming as well as modern conveniences such as home automation, wireless networking, and Internet access. Nevertheless, for most of us the futuristic digital home we see in movies isn't a reality. Patterns mined from home networks can support smarter applications.

    Abstract: Semantic Web services aim at enabling automatic service operations in order to keep human intervention to a minimum, enable seamless interaction between the services, reduce the risk of operation errors, and maximize the efficiency of the interactions. Current semantic Web services are functionally well-described, but behaviorally poorly-described especially for complex Web services. This defect may cause behavioral mismatches although the provider and the requester are functionally compatible. This paper presents a Web service behavioral description model with public and private processes, illuminates the importance of public process for complex Web service interactions, and proposes an approach to improve Web service behavioral description based on current proposed semantic Web services conceptual models.
