  • The necessity of Information integration has emphasized by advancement of internet and change of enterprise environment. In enterprises, it usually integrates the multi-database constructing by M&A. For this integration of information it must guarantee interpretation and integration which is stabilized with solving heterogeneous characteristic problem. In this paper, we propose the method that change the global XML query to local XML query for interpretation. It is based on XMDR(eXtended Meta-Data Registry) which expresses the connection between the standard and the local for solve the interoperability problem in heterogeneous environment. Thus, we propose the legacy model that can search and modify by one Query with creating global XML Query by XMDR. and for his, we use the 2PC technique which is the distributed transaction control technique of existing.

  • E-learning objects should be appropriately described and classified using standard metadata for facilitating the processes of e-learning resource description, discovery and reuse. These metadata need to be published in a registry to reduce duplication of effort and enhance semantic interoperability. This paper describes how standard ebXML registries can be used for annotating, storing, discovering and retrieving e-learning object metadata. For semantic annotation of e-learning objects, IEEE LOM is adopted as the metadata ontology. In order to support the e-learning metadata ontology in interoperable ebXML registries, a mapping scheme between LOM and ebXML information model is proposed. The usefulness of standard ebXML registries for sharing e-learning metadata is demonstrated by prototyping an e-learning registry called ebRR4LOM based on the scheme.

  • Information Retrieval System aims towards providing fast and accurate information to users. However, current search systems are based on plain svntactic analysis which makes it difficult for the user to find the exact required information. This paper proposes the SW-IRS (Semantic Web-based Information Retrieval System) using an Ontology Server. The proposed system is purposed to maximize efficiency and accuracy of information retrieval of unstructured and semi-structured documents by using an agent-based automatic classification technology and semantic web based information retrieval methods. For interoperability and easy integration, RDF based repository system is supported, and the newly developed ranking algorithm was applied to rank search results and provide more accurate and reliable information. Finally, a new ranking algorithm is suggested to be used to evaluate performance and verify the efficiency and accuracy of the proposed retrieval system.

  • This study delves into the National Archives of Korea's service that provides information on changes in records-creating agencies, identifying the problems in an organizational relationship structure and exploring potential enhancements using the RiC-O. Drawing insights from the French PIAAF project, we applied RiC-O to integrate information on records and records creators, elucidating relationships between data entities. Our analysis demonstrated that leveraging RiC-O, coupled with technologies like linked data, amplifies the interoperability of authority records, substantially enhancing the service providing information on changes in records-creating agencies. Based on these findings, we propose an authority record service based on RiC-O, presenting a prototype designed to improve the National Archives of Korea's change information service and enhance user experience.

  • Related incidents and accidents are frequent after 2000 years, such as the outbreak of the Taian peninsula crude oil spillage and Gumi hydrofluoric acid leakage accident. In the wake of such environmental pollution accidents, Consensus has been formed to enact legislation on liability for the compensation of environmental pollution in 2014 and the rescue, and has been in force since January 2016. Therefore, in the domestic insurance industry, the introduced environmental liability insurance system needs to be managed through the standardization formula of a new insurance model for managing the environmental risk. This study has been carried out by the emergence of a safe insurance model with a risky nature of the risk type, which is one of the services of the knowledge base. The verification of the six assurance media on the occurrence of environmental pollution such as chemical, waste, marine, soil, etc. is expressed through semantic interoperability through this possible ontology. The insurance model was designed and presented by deducing the relationship between the amount of money and the amount of money that was written in the area of existing expertise, In order to exclude the possible consequences, the concept of abstract is conceptualized in the form of a customer, and a plan for the future development of an ontology-based decision support system is proposed to reduce the cost and resources consumed every year. It is expected that standardization of the verification standard of the mass of mass will minimize errors and reduce the time and resources required for verification.

  • 웹 서비스 기반의 비즈니스 프로세스 관리 시스템은 트랜잭션에 대한 신뢰도의 확보를 위하여 트랜잭션 관리가 필요하다. 트랜잭션 관리를 위한 여러 트랜잭션 프로토콜들이 제시되었지만, 다양한 프로토콜들은 서로간의 이질성으로 인해 비즈니스 프로세스 관리 시스템들 간의 상호호환을 저해한다. 이를 해결하기 위하여 본 연구에서는 시맨틱스 기반의 트랜잭션 프로토콜을 제안한다. 시맨틱스 기반의 트랜잭션 프로토콜은 상태와 메시지에 대한 정적 시맨틱스(Static Semantics)와 상태 전이에 관한 동작 시맨틱스(Operational Semantics)로 구성된다. 정적 시맨틱스는 프로토콜의 상태와 메시지를 Web Ontology Language(OWL)을 사용하여 온톨로지 기반으로 정의한 모델로서, 트랜잭션 프로토콜에 대한 상호 이해도를 높일 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 동작 시맨틱스는 비즈니스 트랜잭션의 상태전이를 Abstract State Machine(ASM)으로 정의한 모델로서, 트랜잭션 실행에 대한 자동화와 체계적인 모니터링을 지원할 것으로 기대된다. 트랜잭션 프로토콜들간의 상호호환을 위하여 이러한 정적 시맨틱스와 동작 시맨틱스를 기반으로 하여 각 트랜잭션 프로토콜 및 중립 트랜잭션 프로토콜의 시맨틱스를 정의한다. 정의된 각 트랜잭션 프로토콜의 정적 시맨틱스는 중립 트랜잭션 프로토콜의 정적 시맨틱스와 온톨로지 기반의 매핑 관계를 형성한다. 중립 트랜잭션 프로토콜의 정적 시맨틱스를 매개로 한 온톨로지 매핑은 각 트랜잭션 프로토콜들 간의 상호호환을 지원할 것으로 기대된다.

  • In this article we address some system characteristics and challenging issues in developing Context-aware Middleware for Ubiquitous Computing. The functionalities of a Context-aware Middleware includes gathering context data from hardware/software sensors, reasoning and inferring high-level context data, and disseminating/delivering appropriate context data to interested applications/services. The Middleware should facilitate the query, aggregation, and discovery for the contexts, as well as facilities to specify their privacy policy. Following a formal context model using ontology would enable syntactic and semantic interoperability, and knowledge sharing between different domains. Moddleware should also provide different kinds of context classification mechanical as pluggable modules, including rules written in different types of logic (first order logic, description logic, temporal/spatial logic, fuzzy logic, etc.) as well as machine-learning mechanical (supervised and unsupervised classifiers). Different mechanisms have different power, expressiveness and decidability properties, and system developers can choose the appropriate mechanism that best meets the reasoning requirements of each context. And finally, to promote the context-trigger actions in application level, it is important to provide a uniform and platform-independent interface for applications to express their need for different context data without knowing how that data is acquired. The action could involve adapting to the new environment, notifying the user, communicating with another device to exchange information, or performing any other task.

  • GPM(Generic Product Model) developed by Hitachi in Japan is a common data model to integrate and share life cycle data of nuclear power plants. GPM consists of GPM core model, an abstract model, implementation language for the model and reference library written in the language. GPM core model has a feature that it can construct a semantic network model consisting of relationships among objects. Initial GPM developed and provided GPML as an implementation language to support the feature of the core model, but afterwards the GPML was replaced by GPM-XML based on XML to achieve data interoperability with heterogeneous applications accessing a GPM data model. However, data models written in GPM-XML are insufficient to be used as a semantic network model for lack of studies which support GPM-XML and enable the models to be used as a semantic network model. This paper proposes OWL as the implementation language for GPM core model because OWL can describe ontologies similar to semantic network models and has an abundant supply of technical standards and supporting tools. Also, OWL which can be expressed in terms of RDF/XML based on XML guarantees data interoperability. This paper uses OWL DL, one of three sublanguages of OWL, because it can guarantee complete reasoning and the maximum expressiveness at the same time. The contents of this paper introduce the way how to overcome the difference between GPM and OWL DL, and, base on this way, describe how to convert the reference library written in GPML into ontologies based on OWL DL written in RDF/XML.

  • It has lately been recognized that the sharing and exchanging of the research results information is the critical factor to improve the research productivity. So many institutions are planning or developing the information systems which provide the research information services for researcher. But it has very difficulty in integrating the research resources information due to the dispersion and heterogeneity in data sources, and semantic and structural difference in describing data. We propose the semantic web based methodology and conceptual framework for raising the interoperability of metadata about research results information, which will support the integration of the distributed research data for information services in the end. We first introduce the ontology which is developed based on Standard Metadata of Research Results Information published by STISC. Then to show the applicability in real-world environment, we express the metadata of research information in RDF/RDFS according to ontology. Finally we proposed the conceptual architecture of research information service system which shows the main components, the functional requirements, and the principal and design direction at implementing the system.

  • Objective: The propose of this study is to build a conceptual framework for representing clinical findings in Traditional East Asian Medicine(TEAM). As the existing standard models have been developed without considering features of Traditional Medicine, in this study we introduced unique characteristics for the TEAM. Method: This study was composed of three steps. First, we analyzed whether the existing clinical information models are suitable for representing clinical findings. Second, we analyzed ISO/TS 22789 model which is a ISO medical informatics standard, to find out the problem by applying clinical findings of TEAM into the model. Finally, we defined semantic links and a concept hierarchy in our model based on the analyzed results. The model includes the concepts for clinical findings and terms, and the semantic links can be regarded as relations between concepts, so that the representating clinical findings are completed by connecting concepts with other concepts. Results: Our framework was developed by removing unnecessary semantic links, and adding some necessary ones based on ISO/TS 22789 model. The ISO/TS 22789 model has a simple concept hierarchy, but in this study we subdivided the hierarchy and also considered interoperability with other terminological systems and standard models. Conclusions: This research needs more discussions, but is meaningful as proposing a way how to develop Traditional Medicine terminological systems. This study shows the limitations of existing models in describing clinical findings for TEAM, and what should be considered to represent Traditional Medicine knowledge, and propose a solution to improve the problem.
