Knowledge-based modelling applied to synucleinopathies
2015
International audience; The adoption of telemedicine technologies has enabled collaborative programs involving a variety of links among distributed medical structures and health officials and professionals. The use for telemedicine for transmission of medical data and the possibility for several distant physicians to share their knowledge on given medical cases provides clear benefits, but also raises several unsolved conceptual and technical challenges. The seamless exchange and access of medical information between medical structures, health professionals, and patients is a prerequisite for the harmonious development of this new medical practice. This paper proposes a new approach of sema…
Code Interoperability and Standard Data Formats in Quantum Chemistry and Quantum Dynamics: The Q5/Q5cost Data Model
2014
Code interoperability and the search for domain-specific standard data formats represent critical issues in many areas of computational science. The advent of novel computing infrastructures such as computational grids and clouds make these issues even more urgent. The design and implementation of a common data format for quantum chemistry (QC) and quantum dynamics (QD) computer programs is discussed with reference to the research performed in the course of two Collaboration in Science and Technology Actions. The specific data models adopted, Q5Cost and D5Cost, are shown to work for a number of interoperating codes, regardless of the type and amount of information (small or large datasets) …
Ontonuts: Reusable Semantic Components for Multi-agent Systems
2009
The volumes of data in information systems are growing drastically. The systems become increasingly complex in trying to handle heterogeneity of ubiquitous components, standards, data formats, etc. According to the vision of Autonomic Computing, the complexity can be handled by introducing self-manageable components able to "run themselves." Agent Technology fits this vision, whereas interoperability among autonomic components can be tackled by Semantic Technologies. The problem of efficient heterogeneous data sharing, exchange and reuse within such systems plays a key role. We present an approach of constructing semantic capabilities (self-descriptive functional components) for software ag…
Geo-visual analytics for urban design in the context of future Internet
2009
The internet, where much of the information has reference to location, together with the latest generation of geographical web services, represent a very large information space that can be used for planning and design. The wealth of information accessible, which requires new forms of interaction and management of the data available, has brought in recent year to the growth of the domain of visual analytics. In addition, the availability of 3D geobrowsers provides the technological means for interactive 3D environments which can be used to access large-scale geographical information. This technological scenario is paving the way to 3D web-based, geo-visual analytics tools for land planning …
Qualifying semantic graphs using model checking
2011
International audience; Semantic interoperability problems have found their solutions using languages and techniques from the Semantic Web. The proliferation of ontologies and meta-information has improved the understanding of information and the relevance of search engine responses. However, the construction of semantic graphs is a source of numerous errors of interpretation or modeling and scalability remains a major problem. The processing of large semantic graphs is a limit to the use of semantics in current information systems. The work presented in this paper is part of a new research at the border of two areas: the semantic web and the model checking. This line of research concerns t…
TOWARDS SEMANTIC INTEROPERABILITY FOR ENTERPRISE INFORMATION SYSTEMS
2016
International audience; In the context of globalisation, data and knowledge management, and given the need to deliver a quick response to changes in market forces, enterprises have to collaborate using information technologies to succeed in a disparate and dynamical business environment. Enterprise interoperability (EI) is a field of study that aims to improve this collaboration. Moreover, EI addresses problems related to the lack of system interoperability in organisations. In this paper, we focus on approaches which deliver semantic interoperability among enterprise information systems. We conclude by identifying the main drawbacks of such approaches to be adopted by world-wide industry a…
FOWLA, A Federated Architecture for Ontologies.
2015
International audience; The progress of information and communication technologies has greatly increased the quantity of data to process. Thus, managing data heterogeneity is a problem nowadays. In the 1980s, the concept of a Federated Database Architecture (FDBA) was introduced as a collection of components to unite loosely coupled federation. Semantic web technologies mitigate the data heterogeneity problem, however due to the data structure heterogeneity the integration of several ontologies is still a complex task. For tackling this problem, we propose a loosely coupled federated ontology architecture (FOWLA). Our approach allows the coexistence of various ontologies sharing common data…
Enhancing scientific information systems with semantic annotations
2013
International audience; Scientific Information Systems aim to produce or improve knowledge on a subject through activities of research and development. The management of scientific dat a requires some essential properties. We propose SemLab an architecture that sup ports interoperability, data quality and extensibility through a unique paradigm: semantic annotation. We present two app lications that validate our architecture.
Semantic and Multi-scale BIM/CIM/LIM
2019
Compliance checking for building models, cities and territories involve formalizing a set of model schema knowledge and constraint. The objective of our study is to propose: an information model to federate heterogeneous data sources describing an urban area (building and building environment) along with a method for formally specifying of urban rules. The overall goal we pursue is to be able to query and to verify data against different regulations and/or requirements. The purpose of this article is to describe our approach for interoperability among different data sources (e.g. IFC, CityGML) thus creating a consistent description of an urban area.
