Owl Concept Overview

As a series of 8to 10-m class telescopes come into operation worldwide, the scientific challenges these instruments do already address, together with their space-based counterparts, imply that the increase in lightgathering power and resolution of the next generation of telescopes will have to exceed conventional scaling factors. Indeed, it seems unavoidable that the same progress in telescope ...

Concept Map Generation from Owl Ontologies

The paper is dedicated to concept map generation from OWL ontologies. This is an important issue because creation of concept maps for knowledge assessment tools are time and effort consuming. During last years since ontology description language OWL is developed amount of created ontologies have been extremely increased. A lot of ontologies written in OWL are freely available on Internet and co...

The Sensor Web: A New Instrument Concept

The confluence of the rapidly expanding sensor, computation, and telecommunication industries has allowed for a new instrument concept: the Sensor Web. A Sensor Web consists of intra-communicating, spatially-distributed sensor pods that are deployed to monitor and explore environments. It is capable of automated reasoning for it can perform intelligent autonomous operations in uncertain environ...
