The performance of smartphone applications are usually constrained in user interactions due to resource limitation and it promises great opportunities to improve the performance by exploring the smartphone built-in and embedded sensing techniques. However, heterogeneity in techniques, semantic gap between sensor data and usable context, and complexity of contextual situations keep the techniques from seamless integration. Relevant studies mainly focus on feasibility demonstration of emerging sensing techniques, which rarely address both general architectures and comprehensive technical solutions. Based on a proposed functional model, this investigation provides a general architecture to deal with the dynamic context for context-aware automation and decision support. In order to take advantage of the built-in sensors to improve the performance of mobile applications, an ontology-based method is employed for context modelling, linguistic variables are used for heterogeneous context presentation, and semantic distance-based rule matching is employed to customise functions to the contextual situations. A case study on mobile application authentication is conducted with smartphone built-in hardware modules. The results demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed solutions and their effectiveness in improving operational efficiency.

본 연구에서는 온톨로지를 이용한 SW-IQS(Semantic Web based Information Query System)를 제안한다. 제안한 시스템은 자동 분류 기술과 정보 검색 기법들을 이용하여 반구조(semi-structured) 문서 뿐만 아니라 비구조(unstructured) 문서의 처리를 극대화 시키고자 한다. 또한 상호 운용성 및 데이터 통합을 위해 RDF(S) 방식의 문서 저장 서버를 지원하며 웹 페이지들간에 검색 순위를 두어 보다 신속하고 정확한 정보 검색이 가능하도록 하고자 한다. 마지막으로 새로운 순위 측정 알고리즘을 제안하고 이를 이용한 성능 평가를 실시하여 그 효율성과 정확성을 검증해 보이고자 한다.

The Web Services descriptions such as DAML-S/OWL-S, BPEL4WS and WSMF focusing on the functional aspects of Web Services have limitations for the representation of the conceptual and semantic capabilities of Web Services, although WSMF is based on ontology and can represent the goal of Web Services. This paper proposes the new description formalism based on the competence ontology that can represent both functional and semantic aspects of Web Services. This paper also presents the integration and the composition of Web Services by means of Data Mediator(D-Mediator) and Control Mediator(C-Mediator) to mediate compositional in compatibility between heterogeneous Web Services.

In recent years, the research of 3D mapping technique in urban environments obtained by mobile robots equipped with multiple sensors for recognizing the robot's surroundings is being studied actively. However, the map generated by simple integration of multiple sensors data only gives spatial information to robots. To get a semantic knowledge to help an autonomous mobile robot from the map, the robot has to convert low-level map representations to higher-level ones containing semantic knowledge of a scene. Given a 3D point cloud of an urban scene, this research proposes a method to recognize the objects effectively using 3D graph model for autonomous mobile robots. The proposed method is decomposed into three steps: sequential range data acquisition, normal vector estimation and incremental graph-based segmentation. This method guarantees the both real-time performance and accuracy of recognizing the objects in real urban environments. Also, it can provide plentiful data for classifying the objects. To evaluate a performance of proposed method, computation time and recognition rate of objects are analyzed. Experimental results show that the proposed method has efficiently in understanding the semantic knowledge of an urban environment.

In this study, a system to increase the expressiveness of existing standard terminology using three-dimensional (3D) data is designed. We analyze the existing medical terminology system by searching the reference literature and perform an expert group focus survey. A human body image is generated using a 3D modeling tool. Then, the anatomical position of the human body is mapped to the 3D coordinates' identification (ID) and metadata. We define the term to represent the 3D human body position in a total of 12 categories, including semantic terminology entity and semantic disorder. The Blender and 3ds Max programs are used to create the 3D model from medical imaging data. The generated 3D human body model is expressed by the ID of the coordinate type (x, y, and z axes) based on the anatomical position and mapped to the semantic entity including the meaning. We propose a system of standard terminology enabling integration and utilization of the 3D human body model, coordinates (ID), and metadata. In the future, through cooperation with the Electronic Health Record system, we will contribute to clinical research to generate higher-quality big data.

Database integration is a common and growing challenge with the proliferation of database systems, data warehouses, data marts, and other OLAP systems in organizations. Although there are many methods of sharing data between databases, true interoperability of database integration system that improves in the database federation architecture by allowing domain administrators to simply and efficiently capture database semantics. The semantic information is combined using a tool for producing a global view. Building the global view is the bottleneck in integration because there are few tools that support its construction, and these tools often require sophisticated knowledge and experience to operate properly. The technique and tool presented is simple and powerful enough to be used by all database administrators, yet expressive enough to support the majority of integration queries.

Recently, the need for integration of military-related information is increasing. The fundamental problem for integrating existing information systems is semantic inconsistency. To solve this problem, the use of metadata is essential, because metadata is a key component for effective information integration. In this paper, we present a metadata-based data grid system for integrating military data sources. First, we investigate federated database approach and data grid approach for information integration, and deal with metadata-based data grid. Then we present a data grid system for the integration of military information.

The Semantic Web and its related technologies have been opening the era of information sharing via the Web. There are, however, several huddles still to overcome in the new era, and one of the major huddles is the issue of information integration, unless a single unified and huge ontology could be built and used which could address everything in the world. Particularly in the e-business area, the problem of information integration is of a great concern for product search and comparison at various Internet shopping sites and e-marketplaces. To overcome this problem, we proposed an ontology-driven mapping algorithm between heterogeneous product classification and description frameworks. We also peformed a comparative evaluation of the proposed mapping algorithm against a well-Down ontology mapping tool, PROMPT.

In a mediator based information integration system that integrates information distributed on various data sources as a common data model, there are many researches on a common data mode providing a reservation of integrated data semantic, and on a resolution for a conflict caused by integrating various data modes. This paper proposes the DataBlender system that minimizes the semantic losses and provides an easy resolution for a conflict using the XML technology like as XML Schema, XQuery. Futhermore, it provides an integrated query facility usable in the mobile environment. So it becomes a foundation for a next Internet business environment.

This paper describes a framework for multimodal object manipulation in virtual environments. The gist of the proposed framework is the semantic integration of multimodal input using spatial ontology and user context to integrate the interpretation results from the inputs into a single one. The spatial ontology, describing the spatial relationships between objects, is used together with the current user context to solve ambiguities coming from the user's commands. These commands are used to reposition the objects in the virtual environments. We discuss how the spatial ontology is defined and used to assist the user to perform object placements in the virtual environment as it will be in the real world.
