Download or read book Semantic Grid Model Methodology and Applications written by Zhaohui Wu and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-11-16 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Semantic Grid: Model, Methodology, and Applications introduces to the science, core technologies, and killer applications. First, scientific issues of semantic grid systems are covered, followed by two basic technical issues, data-level semantic mapping, and service-level semantic interoperating. Two killer applications are then introduced to show how to build a semantic grid for specific application domains. Although this book is organized in a step by step manner, each chapter is independent. Detailed application scenarios are also presented. In 1990, Prof. Wu invented the first KB-system tool, ZIPE, based on C on a SUN platform. He proposed the first coupling knowledge representing model, Couplingua, which embodies Rule, Frame, Semantic Network and Nerve Cell Network, and supports symbol computing and data processing computing. His current focus is on semantic web, grid & ubiquitous computing, and their applications in the life sciences.

Download or read book EA based Problem Solving Environment Over the GRID written by Mohamed Wahib and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This chapter presented a grid based problem solving environment that uses EAs and other algorithms all falling under the meta heuristics category to offer black box global optimization for the user. The chapter first highlighted the grid computing technology and then discussed with reasons behind using the grid for MHGrid, Meta Heuristics Grid, and the benefits of the grid technology compared to other distributed paradigms. Then a comparison of MHGrid with related work was discussed, to imply the concepts behind the design of optimization solving grid applications. The design and implementation of MHGrid was explained, including the layered architecture, the workflow inside the framework and explanation of MHAPI, a library that allows the solver developers to integrate their solvers with MHGrid. MHGrid as a model was expanded in both the vertical and horizontal directions in order to widen the base of MHGrid to be a general framework rather than being tailored to one problem type. The expansion strategies reformed the architecture of MHGrid into a SOA, the main impact for MHGrid adopting SOA was the representation of solvers and objective functions as services and thus having the service oriented grid application mostly affecting the application layer whilst using OGSA and Web services at the middleware layer. A sample example case was demonstrated to acknowledge the reader with the user perspective of MHGrid. For the future work, modifications and extensions will cover different aspects. Major points will include adopting a more sophisticated SLA mechanism, defining new interfaces that allow one solver to use another solver, for example pBOA algorithm can internally use Tabu search for candidate offspring selection, and one more important point is to conduct more study on the dynamic grain size in EAs to reach the best formulation of parallelization models adopted. Other minor points will include enchantments on the portlets to auto generate the MHML files on behalf of the users.

This book was released on 2004-10-14 with total page 905 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A special mention for 2004 is in order for the new Doctoral Symposium Workshop where three young postdoc researchers organized an original setup and formula to bring PhD students together and allow them to submit their research proposals for selection. A limited number of the submissions and their approaches were independently evaluated by a panel of senior experts at the conference, and presented by the students in front of a wider audience. These students also got free access to all other parts of the OTM program, and only paid a heavily discounted fee for the Doctoral Symposium itself. (In fact their attendance was largely sponsored by the other participants!) If evaluated as successful, it is the intention of the General Chairs to expand this model in future editions of the OTM conferences and so draw in an audience of young researchers to the OnTheMove forum. All three main conferences and the associated workshops share the d- tributed aspects of modern computing systems, and the resulting applicati- pull created by the Internet and the so-called Semantic Web. For DOA 2004, the primary emphasis stayed on the distributed object infrastructure; for ODBASE 2004, it was the knowledge bases and methods required for enabling the use of formalsemantics;andforCoopIS2004themaintopicwastheinteractionofsuch technologies and methods with management issues, such as occurs in networked organizations. These subject areas naturally overlap and many submissions in factalsotreatenvisagedmutualimpactsamongthem.
