Despite this interdisciplinary nature of service concept, existing methodologies for building service-oriented systems provide limited support to include a complete coverage of various engineering phases for a unified development and are therefore not directly applicable to service-oriented architectures. In particular, the design of coordination mechanisms between service providers and customers as well as the design of a common vocabulary in an inter-organizational setting is not adequately addressed. To face these shortcomings, in this position paper, we present an interdisciplinary approach integrating recently proposed methodologies into one coherent engineering methodology. The methodology aims to build a system that extends the basic find-bind-execute paradigm of Web services on an electronic market platform.","PeriodicalId":184263,"journal":{"name":"2009 24th International Symposium on Computer and Information Sciences","volume":"98 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117218255","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}

Therefore, various range scanners, based on different working principles are developed. Among these, scanners using stripe based triangulation are the most promising ones. Unfortunately, these scanners have problems in obtaining the range data of shiny objects (having highlights) under ambient light. In this study, we develop a stripe projection based range scanner to solve this problem. Our main contribution is on detecting the stripe using a color invariant in a robust manner. We developed a projector based scanner using this color invariant. Our scanner has also the advantage of flexibly changing stripe color for different colored objects. We test the performance of our novel stripe detection method under various controlled experiments. We also test the overall performance of our scanner in extracting the range data of several objects having highlights. Extensive testings indicate the success of our range scanner, especially for scanning objects having highlights under ambient light.","PeriodicalId":184263,"journal":{"name":"2009 24th International Symposium on Computer and Information Sciences","volume":"38 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121143595","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}

An alternative widely discussed is the use of randomized search techniques. Several previous researches have been showed that the use of randomized sampling in query optimization permits to find, in average, near optimal plans in polynomial time. However, due to their random components, the quality of yielded plans for the same query may vary a lot, making the response time of a submitted query unpredictable. On the other hand, the use of heuristic optimization may increase stability of response time. This characteristic is essential in environments where response time must be predicted. In this paper, we will compare a randomized algorithm and a heuristic algorithm applied to large join query optimization. We used an open source DBMS as experimental framework and we compared the quality and stability of these algorithms.","PeriodicalId":184263,"journal":{"name":"2009 24th International Symposium on Computer and Information Sciences","volume":"6 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121268062","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}

In the present work, we propose a method for prediction of protein-protein interactions in Yeast. Our proposal is based on the well-known classification paradigm called Support Vector Machines and a well-known feature selection method (Relief) using Ge-nomics/Proteomics information. In order to obtain higher values of specificity and sensitivity in predicting PPIs, we use a high reliable set of positive and negative examples from which to extract a set of proteomic/genomic features. We also introduce a similarity measure for pairs of proteins to calculate additional features from well-known databases, that allow us to improve the prediction capability of our approach. After applying a feature selection method, we construct SVM classifiers that obtain a low error rate in the prediction for each pair of proteins. Finally, we analyse and compare the prediction quality of the method proposed with other high-confidence datasets from other works.","PeriodicalId":184263,"journal":{"name":"2009 24th International Symposium on Computer and Information Sciences","volume":"136 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115093467","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 security of a database may be risked when it is made public as is: because the data mining tools are so sophisticated that the sensitive knowledge can easily be surfaced by receivers. This gives rise to a sanitization process which transforms the original database into another database, the released one, which does not hold the sensitive knowledge but can substitute the original otherwise. In case the sensitive knowledge is of the form frequent itemsets, the resulting concrete problem is called frequent itemsets hiding. A number of algorithms, exploiting different approaches and techniques, for frequent itemsets hiding problem is proposed in the literature. Since finding optimal solutions is NP-Hard, algorithms resort to certain heuristics having different levels of sophistication, complexity, efficiency and effectiveness. This paper presents an evaluation framework which implements recent algorithms belonging to different approaches and a set of metrics to gauge the performance and problem difficulties. The current work also presents an experimental study and its results where four algorithms and seven datasets are involved. Our results indicate that data distortion levels and runtime requirements are quite high, especially for difficult problem instances. Our conclusion is that there are new rooms for more sophisticated and tuneable (w.r.t. effectiveness/efficiency tradeoff) algorithms.","PeriodicalId":184263,"journal":{"name":"2009 24th International Symposium on Computer and Information Sciences","volume":"9 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2009-10-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124226860","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}
