We define a novel structure called Path Stream Group Level (PSGL) node for streaming XML data and selective download of XML document. A XML document may contain many elements with same name. But each element having same name with different XML tree path information can have various meaning in XML document. Therefore, our encoding scheme uses Location Path information of XML document to uniquely identify a node and groups its elements having same name and location path into PSGL node. Each PSGL node structure includes Level Number, Node Name, Location Path, Child Index, Sibling Index, Attribute Value List, Text Value List, Select Bit String (SBS) coding and SBS count. Level number helps in tuning into particular level of XML document tree where the result node of query or first predicate condition resides in Xpath expression for selective download of XML document. The indices and Value Lists helps in an efficient XML query processing. Thus PSGL encoding scheme exploits the XML document object model in terms of depth and level order tree traversals for XML parsing and streaming. Simple path query and twig pattern queries can be processed efficiently due to parent-child and siblings relationship coded in SBS coding.","PeriodicalId":113531,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Recent Trends in Information Technology (ICRTIT)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128509381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The typical lexical matching technique works by matching the sequence of tokens between the texts to recognize paraphrases, and fails when different words are used to convey the same meaning. We can improve this simple method by combining lexical with syntactic or semantic representations of the input texts. The present work makes use of syntactical information in the texts and computes the similarity between them using word similarity measures based on WordNet and lexical databases. The texts are converted into a unified semantic structural model through which the semantic similarity of the texts is obtained.

MANET is focused in the field of applications such as military, disaster recovery situations where it is difficult to establish a fixed network. The network systems that schedule database transactions in MANET need to focus additional issues such as energy limitation and scheduling constraints. This paper proposes a solution for scheduling database transactions that reduces the number of transaction missing deadlines while balancing the energy consumption by the TMNs in the system. The proposed solution is setting up reasonable concurrency control when guaranteeing isolation. This paper then reports the simulation experiments that were conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed system in terms of number of transaction missing deadlines, total energy consumption and distribution of energy consumption among TMNs.","PeriodicalId":113531,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Recent Trends in Information Technology (ICRTIT)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121901826","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed Efficient Dynamic Traffic Control System (EDTCS) has Traffic Control Unit (TCU), Monitor Unit (MU) and Road Side Unit (RSU). RSU contains RFID reader which reads the unique RFID code for an emergency vehicle and send it to MU. MU uses sensors such as proximity switch and RFID tags to get the count of normal and emergency vehicles respectively and sensed information is sent to TCU. TCU receives the count of normal and emergency vehicles and changes the signal dynamically by comparing the count obtained from different lanes. The proposed EDTCS saves travel time and gives a special priority to emergency vehicles like ambulance.","PeriodicalId":113531,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Recent Trends in Information Technology (ICRTIT)","volume":"1991 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125518179","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The great challenge of the information retrieval system is to retrieve the related relevant information from the heterogeneous web resources. This paper aims for the retrieval of the relevant geo-spatial concepts from the geo-spatial ontology which aids application in quality testing of water and flood prediction. In the geo-spatial concept space, the retrieval of relevant geo-spatial concepts depends on the distance separating the two geo-spatial concepts and the context of the concepts. Research in geo-spatial information retrieval has used either the semantic distance between the geo-spatial concepts or the context of the concepts for computing the relevancy. This paper proposes HCC (Hybrid Conceptual Context) algorithm which aims at retrieving relevant geo-spatial concepts by considering both the semantic distance and the context on which the concepts occur in the geo-spatial space. This work computes the semantic similarity by measuring the semantic distance using Euclidean and Manhattan distance measure. This computation is carried out in two steps such as retrieval of semantically similar geo-spatial concepts and the retrieval of context dependent geo-spatial concepts. Semantic similarity computation in HCC algorithm retrieves contextually and semantically similar relevant geo-spatial concepts using Euclidean distance and Manhattan distance measures. Experiments have been done using Ordnance Survey Master Map datasource and geo-spatial ontology. The precision and recall show Manhattan based semantic similarity computation improves relevancy by 10%.","PeriodicalId":113531,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Recent Trends in Information Technology (ICRTIT)","volume":"125 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"114594229","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Traditional approaches require applying a battery of different classifiers to the image with a large number of complex features used to detect the objects. Specialized detectors usually excel in performance, while the class-specific features increase detection accuracy, but at the expense of complexity. In this paper, an efficient method of human face and car detection using cascaded structure of independent object classifiers is proposed. The approach is based on background elimination using statistical features, followed by foreground detection using Principal component analysis (PCA) and Histogram of Gradients (HoG) with SVM classifier. For detecting the object of interest from the image, the system primarily filters the potential object area by analyzing the local histogram distribution. After background elimination, the trained classifier detects foreground using higher order parameters like PCA for human faces and HOG for cars. In this paper, the kernel function for SVM classifier, suitable for individual object classifier is analysed based upon ROC-AUC parameter. The proposed system is implemented in Matlab. The system is validated with performance metrics like precision, recall and accuracy.","PeriodicalId":113531,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Recent Trends in Information Technology (ICRTIT)","volume":"89 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122211315","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While progress has greatly benefited the broader “able” population, those with disabilities are largely ignored, and must often force-fit available solutions or wait for add-on features that only partially solve usability issues. Given the diversity of disabilities, a person-centered rather than human-centered approach is needed. Previously, we proposed enriching the design philosophy of HCMC by considering perspectives from disabilities. More recently, we have proposed Person-Centered Multimedia Computing (PCMC) to emphasize individual user needs and co-adaptive systems. In this paper, we present an interdisciplinary approach to realizing person-centered accessible technologies. The basis of the approach is three complementary research thrusts: human-centered design, socio-personal dynamics, and socio-technological practices. These research thrusts are interconnected through three perspectives of disability research: technology, adaptation and policy. The results of several case studies will be presented to highlight how this approach has aided the development of person-centered accessible technologies from early conceptualization to commercialization.","PeriodicalId":113531,"journal":{"name":"2013 International Conference on Recent Trends in Information Technology (ICRTIT)","volume":"164 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123264766","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
