Download or read book Uncertainty Management in Information Systems written by Amihai Motro and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 473 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As its title suggests, "Uncertainty Management in Information Systems" is a book about how information systems can be made to manage information permeated with uncertainty. This subject is at the intersection of two areas of knowledge: information systems is an area that concentrates on the design of practical systems that can store and retrieve information; uncertainty modeling is an area in artificial intelligence concerned with accurate representation of uncertain information and with inference and decision-making under conditions infused with uncertainty. New applications of information systems require stronger capabilities in the area of uncertainty management. Our hope is that lasting interaction between these two areas would facilitate a new generation of information systems that will be capable of servicing these applications. Although there are researchers in information systems who have addressed themselves to issues of uncertainty, as well as researchers in uncertainty modeling who have considered the pragmatic demands and constraints of information systems, to a large extent there has been only limited interaction between these two areas. As the subtitle, "From Needs to Solutions," indicates, this book presents view points of information systems experts on the needs that challenge the uncer tainty capabilities of present information systems, and it provides a forum to researchers in uncertainty modeling to describe models and systems that can address these needs.

Download or read book Logics for Databases and Information Systems written by Jan Chomicki and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 442 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Time is ubiquitous in information systems. Almost every enterprise faces the problem of its data becoming out of date. However, such data is often valu able, so it should be archived and some means to access it should be provided. Also, some data may be inherently historical, e.g., medical, cadastral, or ju dicial records. Temporal databases provide a uniform and systematic way of dealing with historical data. Many languages have been proposed for tem poral databases, among others temporal logic. Temporal logic combines ab stract, formal semantics with the amenability to efficient implementation. This chapter shows how temporal logic can be used in temporal database applica tions. Rather than presenting new results, we report on recent developments and survey the field in a systematic way using a unified formal framework [GHR94; Ch094]. The handbook [GHR94] is a comprehensive reference on mathematical foundations of temporal logic. In this chapter we study how temporal logic is used as a query and integrity constraint language. Consequently, model-theoretic notions, particularly for mula satisfaction, are of primary interest. Axiomatic systems and proof meth ods for temporal logic [GHR94] have found so far relatively few applications in the context of information systems. Moreover, one needs to bear in mind that for the standard linearly-ordered time domains temporal logic is not re cursively axiomatizable [GHR94]' so recursive axiomatizations are by necessity incomplete.

Download or read book Graph Transformations in Computer Science written by Hans J. Schneider and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 1994-03-28 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The research area of graph grammars and graph transformations dates back only two decades. But already methods and results from the area of graph transformation have been applied in many fields of computer science, such as formal language theory, pattern recognition and generation, compiler construction, software engineering, concurrent and distributed systems modelling, and database design and theory. This volume contains 24 selected and revised papers from an international seminar held in Dagstuhl, Germany, in 1993. The papers cover topics in the following areas: foundations of graph grammars and transformations; and applications of graph transformations to concurrent computing, specification and programming, and pattern generation and recognition.

Download or read book Local Area Network Applications written by Douglas R. Vogel and published by North Holland. This book was released on 1993 with total page 292 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A rapid expansion in the use and reliance upon Local Area Networks (LANs) has occurred during the last decade. LANs represent a significant investment for an organization but can result in the achievement of direct productivity increases and other less tangible benefits for the enterprise. To date, the most common LAN application has been e-mail, though researchers are now exploring how installed systems can be better utilized to enable organizations to capitalize further on their investments. Unfortunately, vendor claims of connectivity are not always matched by the performance of systems on-site and progress towards industry-wide standards for hardware, software and communications remains problematic. This volume contains papers from researchers and practitioners interested in promoting the more effective utilization of LAN technology and also concerned with addressing current and potential difficulties. Topics considered include: the use of CSCW in environmental scanning; group decision support for information strategic planning; the impact of task type and communication medium on the effectiveness and efficiency of group decision support system supported meetings; social forces influencing computer supported meetings outcomes; prototyping tools for the development of distributed applications; optimizing negotiable call accesses for broadband communication networks; linking organizational networks with future telecommunications carrier and equipment industry directions; video and audio communications over LANs; distributed notebooks for LANs; development tools in multidatabase application environments; developing organizational information systems; implementation of company-wide office automation; use of a LAN in controlling the development of large information systems projects; an itinerant computational server for a personal computer network; and knowledge awareness on asynchronous information sharing.
