Informationstechnische, politische und ökonomische Perspektiven}2008science business v0805 semantic ai web book social search Den wichtigsten Dienst des Internets stellen neben E-Mail die Suchmaschinen dar, die als Universalschnittstelle mit der digitalen Welt agieren. Bald aber werden nicht nur immer mehr, sondern auch ganz unterschiedliche Daten und Informationen den Weg ins Internet finden: Neben Fotos und Videos auch eingescannte Bücher, medizinische Datenbanken sowie viele von Sensoren in Realzeit generierte Daten zum Beispiel über die Umwelt, den Zustand von Produkten oder den momentanen Ort von Gegenständen und Personen. Die Suche in solchen semantisch komplexen Datenbereichen erfordert intelligente Mechanismen, die weit über heutige stichwortbasierte Verfahren hinausgehen. Wie aber sehen die Suchmaschinen der nächsten Generation aus, und wo muss dazu im Bereich der Informationstechnologie weiter geforscht werden? Was bedeutet die Suchtechnologie für die Wirtschaft, welche unternehmerischen Chancen bieten sich? Welche gesellschaftlichen Herausforderungen - etwa hinsichtlich Medienkompetenz, einseitiger Information oder des Schutzes der mitprotokollierten Nutzerdaten - bergen Suchmaschinen und welche Probleme ergeben sich aus der Marktdominanz einiger weniger Anbieter? Mit diesen und weiteren Fragen beschäftigten sich die Beiträge in diesem Band. In Zeiten von globalisierten Kommunikationskanälen und beständig wachsender Bedeutung des Internets hat sich das Themennetzwerk Informations- und Kommunikationstechnologie der Deutschen Akademie der Technikwissenschaften im Mai vergangenen Jahres mit der Bedeutung, der Ausgestaltung und ökonomischen Tragweite von Suchmaschinen in der Zukunft befasst. Der vorliegende Band ist eine Zusammenfassung der auf dem Symposium gehaltenen Vorträge und ist ein umfassender Beitrag zur Beantwortung von entscheidenden Fragestellungen rund ums Internet und der Zukunftsaussichten für Suchmaschinen im Speziellen. Welche technologischen Fortschritte können für die Gestaltung von Suchmaschinen herangezogen werden? Welche ökonomischen Potenziale hält die Entwicklung bereit? Wie kann eventuellen Monopolstellungen begegnet werden?Mon Jul 07 13:47:29 CEST 2008Berlin, HeidelbergLecture Notes in Computer ScienceThe Semantic Web -- {ISWC 2002} : First International Semantic Web Conference Sardinia, Italy, June 9--12, 2002, Proceedings23422002v0805 web springer processing ai book semantic service knowledge This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Semantic Web Conference, ISWC 2002, held in Sardinia, Italy, in June 2002.

It presents current research in ontology learning, addressing three perspectives. The first perspective looks at methodologies that have been proposed to automatically extract information from texts and to give a structured organization to such knowledge, including approaches based on machine learning techniques. Then there are evaluation methods for ontology learning, aiming at defining procedures and metrics for a quantitative evaluation of the ontology learning task; and finally application scenarios that make ontology learning a challenging area in the context of real applications such as bio-informatics. According to the three perspectives mentioned above, the book is divided into three sections, each including a selection of papers addressing respectively the methods, the applications and the evaluation of ontology learning approaches.Mon Jul 07 13:47:29 CEST 2008AmsterdamFrontiers in Artificial Intelligence and ApplicationsOntology Learning and Population: Bridging the Gap between Text and Knowledge1672008text book ontology web processing analysis ai semantic v0805 learn language The promise of the Semantic Web is that future web pages will be annotated not only with bright colors and fancy fonts as they are now, but with annotation extracted from large domain ontologies that specify, to a computer in a way that it can exploit, what information is contained on the given web page. The presence of this information will allow software agents to examine pages and to make decisions about content as humans are able to do now. The classic method of building an ontology is to gather a committee of experts in the domain to be modeled by the ontology, and to have this committee agree on which concepts cover the domain, on which terms describe which concepts, on what relations exist between each concept and what the possible attributes of each concept are. All ontology learning systems begin with an ontology structure, which may just be an empty logical structure, and a collection of texts in the domain to be modeled. An ontology learning system can be seen as an interplay between three things: an existing ontology, a collection of texts, and lexical syntactic patterns. The Semantic Web will only be a reality if we can create structured, unambiguous ontologies that model domain knowledge that computers can handle. The creation of vast arrays of such ontologies, to be used to mark-up web pages for the Semantic Web, can only be accomplished by computer tools that can extract and build large parts of these ontologies automatically. This book provides the state-of-art of many automatic extraction and modeling techniques for ontology building. The maturation of these techniques will lead to the creation of the Semantic Web.Mon Jul 07 13:47:29 CEST 2008Berlin, HeidelbergLecture Notes in Computer ScienceThe Adaptive Web: Methods and Strategies of Web Personalization43212007v0805 semantic book ai interface interaction design adaptive user requirements web information springer management Web personalization has evolved into a large research field that attracts scientists from different communities such as hypertext, user modeling, machine learning, natural language generation, information retrieval, intelligent tutoring systems, cognitive science, and Web-based education. This state-of-the-art survey provides a systematic overview of the ideas and techniques of the adaptive Web and serves as a central source of information for researchers, practitioners, and students. The volume constitutes a comprehensive and carefully planned collection of chapters that map out the most important areas of the adaptive Web, each solicited from the experts and leaders in the field. The largest part of the book focuses on personalization techniques, namely the modeling side of personalization and on adaptation. This technique-focused part is complemented by four domain-oriented chapters. The book also details recently emerging topics; it provides a prospective view to new ideas and techniques that are moving rapidly into the focus of the adaptive Web community and have to be included as a glimpse into a not so distant future.Mon Jul 07 13:47:29 CEST 2008Berlin, HeidelbergLecture Notes in Computer ScienceSemantic Multimedia: First International Conference on Semantic and Digital Media Technologies, SAMT 2006, Athens, Greece, December 6--8, 2006, Proceedings43062006springer book ai v0805 management information web knowledge processing multimedia semantic This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the First International Conference on Semantics and Digital Media Technologies, SAMT 2006, held in Athens, Greece in December 2006.

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.Mon Jul 07 13:47:29 CEST 2008Berkeley, CA, USAPro Web 2.0 Mashups: Remixing Data and Web Services2007service v0805 script application development software ajax web book The modern Web is awash with data and services just waiting to be used, but how do you make effective use of all this information?

In addition, we used diverse input modes in order to extend users' access to Web Services.Mon Jul 07 13:47:29 CEST 2008Intelligent Systems341-49The Semantic Web: Apotheosis of Annotation, but What Are Its Semantics?232008v0805 processing paper web language knowledge semantic ieee ai 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.Mon Jul 07 13:47:29 CEST 2008Computer297-100Social Networking412008interaction application community software paper web ieee v0805 user The mass adoption of social-networking websites points to an evolution in human social interaction.
