The goal of the JEM thematic network is to pool together the required expertise and to contribute to the coordination of content enrichment activities in the area of mathematics, to the maintenance of agreed standards and to the delivery of powerful synoptic high-quality user information and support pages, invoked in e-learning platforms operated by the partners.
The Friend of a Friend (FOAF) project is creating a Web of machine-readable pages describing people, the links between them and the things they create and do. FOAF is about your place in the Web, and the Web's place in our world. FOAF is a simple technolo
JavaNNS is the successor of SNNS. It is based on its computing kernel, with a newly developed, comfortable graphical user interface written in Java set on top of it. Hence the compatibility with SNNS is achieved, while the platform-independence is increa
OpenNMS is the world's first enterprise grade network management platform developed under the open source model. It consists of a community supported open-source project as well as a commercial services, training, and support organization.
In early discussions within the Open Sustainability Network, it was agreed that we didn’t want Yet Another Website. So we use existing resources: We didn’t set up a separate wiki, instead using Appropedia.* We didn’t set up a new social network, instead using an existing, like-minded community of people doing serious sustainability and knowledge-sharing work: Global Swadeshi. When someone suggested that OSN should be building a knowledge base, Lonny Grafman expressed that this is a job some of us are passionate about (indeed, that’s what Appropedia is doing) - but it’s not the role of OSN. OSN is for supporting and connecting these initiatives.
The Complex Systems Registry is an Open Source federative platform that has been developed within the FET coordination action Open Network of Centres of Excellence in Complex Systems (ONCE-CS) within the framework of the Complex Systems Society.
The aims of this initiative are
* to become the main Information Hub for the Complex Systems Community,
* to offer pre-installed Web facilities to all institutions, projects, working groups, ... of the Complex Systems Community,
* to guarantee the inter-operability between all installed Web sites.
This project, funded for two years starting September 2008 by the NSF Cyber-enabled Discovery and Innovation (CDI) Program will develop a suite of tools and services to encourage formation of virtual organizations in scientific communities of various sizes, such as conference groups and departmental research groups, and allow such organizations to filter out relevant documents from various input streams, select and enhance the quality of bibliographic data associated with the organization, and attract students, teachers and researchers to contribute to activity of the organization.
Graph mining refers to extracting knowledge from massive graphs. The data sets of telephone calls we see at AT&T can be viewed as a single graph, with several hundred million phone numbers as nodes, and calls between phone numbers as edges. It is a giant social network, like an internet connections graph or a rich citation network.
Solipsis is a pure peer-to-peer system for a massively shared virtual world. There are no central servers at all: it only relies on end-users' machines. Solipsis is a public virtual territory. The world is initially empty and only users will fill it by
VAST is a light-weight network library to support scalable peer-to-peer (P2P) virtual environment / virtual world applications such as Massively Multiplayer Online Games (MMOGs). It is based on the research of Voronoi-based Overlay Network (VON) published
The Trans-European Research and Education Networking Association offers a forum to collaborate, innovate and share knowledge in order to foster the development of Internet technology, infrastructure and services to be used by the research and education community.
My advisor is Prof. Ben Shneiderman, and I am a member of HCIL. My research is in the Information Visualization area of the Human-Computer Interaction field. My current research involves Network Visualization. I developed a tool called NVSS (see NVSS project page) to visualize netwoks (citation networks, food webs, social networks, etc.) using semantic substrates.
The Datagram Congestion Control Protocol (DCCP) is a transport protocol that provides bidirectional unicast connections of congestion-controlled unreliable datagrams. DCCP is suitable for applications that transfer fairly large amounts of data and that can benefit from control over the tradeoff between timeliness and reliability.
The RNA project deals in a very practical way with methods, tools and techniques for building dynamic knowledge systems. In these systems a key role is played by reference networks, sets of reference structures (like thesauri, taxonomies, etc.) and related content metadata. The project is financed by the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs under the auspices of the Ministry of Education, Culture and Science. It is a combined effort of a group of innovative small companies, vanguard institutions in the cultural heritage field and outstanding, internationally acclaimed academics.
[updated with Tagommenders paper – thanks Shilad.] The organizers of the World Wide Web conference recently announced the list of accepted papers for this year’s event. In the Social Networks and Web 2.0 track (chaired by Elisa Bertino and Lada...
analysis and visualization of social networks
in a long-term research project, the visone project team is developing models and algorithms to integrate and advance the analysis and visualization of social networks.
A pre-relational databases datamodel. "Preceeded" by the relational model since the flexibility of this makes it hard to work with. Now re-invented in RDF :)
