Ontology languages for the semantic web: A never completely updated review
2006
This paper gives a never completely account of approaches that have been used for the research community for representing knowledge. After underlining the importance of a layered approach and the use of standards, it starts with early efforts used for artificial intelligence researchers. Then recent approaches, aimed mainly at the semantic web, are described. Coding examples from the literature are presented in both sections. Finally, the semantic web ontology creation process, as we envision it, is introduced.
OGC-to-W3C Services: A Wrapper-Based Solution for Geospatial Metadata Exchange
2018
When trying to compose services that are developed according to different standards, interoperability issues arise that are often faced by developing ad-hoc solutions. A typical example is represented by the composition of W3C and OGC services, which were developed more or less concurrently by independent organizations. In such a context, developing a wrapper that abstracts as much as possible the inner details and logic of a wrapped service well embraces the low-coupled nature of the general Service Oriented Computing paradigm. This paper focuses on the proper management of geospatial metadata into a W3C-based environment and is based on the development of a wrapper that exposes OGC functi…
Complete Genome Sequence of the Enterobacter cancerogenus Bacteriophage Enc34
2012
ABSTRACT Enterobacter cancerogenus is widely distributed in nature and is generally recovered from environmental or vegetal sources. In some cases, it has also been associated with human infections. In this study, the complete genomic sequence of virulent E. cancerogenus bacteriophage Enc34 was determined. The Enc34 genome is 60,364 bp in length and contains 80 open reading frames. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a bacteriophage infecting E. cancerogenus .
WiSHFUL : enabling coordination solutions for managing heterogeneous wireless networks
2017
The paradigm shift toward the Internet of Things results in an increasing number of wireless applications being deployed. Since many of these applications contend for the same physical medium (i.e., the unlicensed ISM bands), there is a clear need for beyond-state-of-the-art solutions that coordinate medium access across heterogeneous wireless networks. Such solutions demand fine-grained control of each device and technology, which currently requires a substantial amount of effort given that the control APIs are different on each hardware platform, technology, and operating system. In this article an open architecture is proposed that overcomes this hurdle by providing unified programming i…
Nietzsche o la voluntad de poder: una lectura
2018
This brief article suggests a reading of the nietzschean concept of Will to Power. First, starting from Heidegger and Deleuze¿s interpretations, an analysis on the differences between Schopenhauer¿s concept of Will and Nietzsche¿s Will to Power is developed, followed by a contrast between Nietzsche¿s Will to Power and Darwin¿s assumptions on the Theory of Evolution. Finally, Will to Power as a key concept in Nietzsche¿s ontology and epistemology is highlighted.
N-Daļiņu Simulācija
2015
Elvja Egles kvalifikācijas darbā „N-Daļiņu Simulācija” tika izstrādāta simulācijas programma, kura attēlo lādētu daļiņu kustības savā starpā. Tika izmantota OpenGL bibliotēka, lai varētu izveidot daļiņu attēlojumu 3-D simulācijā. OpenGL piedāvāja vairākus veidus, kā daļiņas tiek uzzīmētas un kā tās tiek apgaismotas. Fizikas moduļi, sadursmes un animācija tika implementēta kopā ar OpenGL bibliotēku, lai lādēto daļiņu simulācija būtu pietiekami saprotama fizikas skolniekiem, kuri mācās par Kulona likumu. Visa programma tika izstrādāta caur Microsoft Visual Studio uz Windows vides.
La teoría del sujeto de Otto Weininger y su influencia en la filosofía de Wittgenstein
2013
Esta investigación persigue fundamentalmente dos objetivos: El primero es ofrecer una interpretación de la obra de Weininger, Sexo y carácter, que considere su contexto y su conexión con los principales problemas de la historia de la filosofía occidental. Con ello pretendemos, por un lado, contribuir a una más profunda comprensión de la vida intelectual de la Viena finisecular y, por otro, mostrar la relevancia filosófica de las tesis que se defienden en la obra. Sin embargo, aunque la obra de Weininger por sí sola es lo suficientemente estimulante como para dedicar este trabajo íntegramente a su estudio – pues es una obra ambiciosa que ofrece una comprensión global del mundo y del ser huma…

Connections Between Topology and Macroscopic Mechanical Properties of Three-Dimensional Open-Pore Materials
2018
This work addresses a number of fundamental questions regarding the topological description of materials characterized by a highly porous three-dimensional structure with bending as the major deformation mechanism. Highly efficient finite-element beam models were used for generating data on the mechanical behavior of structures with different topologies, ranging from highly coordinated bcc to Gibson–Ashby structures. Random cutting enabled a continuous modification of average coordination numbers ranging from the maximum connectivity to the percolation-cluster transition of the 3D network. The computed macroscopic mechanical properties–Young's modulus, yield strength, and Poisson's ratio–co…
Effect of different aqueous solutions of pure salts and salt mixtures in reverse electrodialysis systems for closed-loop applications
2018
Abstract Reverse Electrodialysis (RED) in a closed-loop arrangement is a viable way to convert low-grade heat into electric power. The present work experimentally investigates the use of pure salt- and equimolar two salts-water solutions as feeds in a lab-scale RED unit. RED performances were analysed in terms of Open Circuit Voltage (OCV), stack resistance and corrected power density. The pure salts and the mixtures employed were chosen via a computational analysis. Effect of feed solution velocity and concentration was investigated. Results concerning the pure salt-water experiments show that NH4Cl is the most performing salt in the concentration range probed, while higher power density v…
