Semantic visualisation in design computing

چکیده
In this paper we discuss the issues of visualisation in architectural design and civil engineering in the broader sense. Usually the term "visualisation" in these fields is connected with 3D modeling and photorealism of physical objects. Another part of the research community understands visualisation as the visual representation of numerical data, popular in the field of data mining and scientific visualisation. In this paper, we present a common approach for designing visualisation schemes that leverage pre-arranged semantics. The approach is based on a combination of the models of the metaphor in cognitive linguistics and the form-semantics-function categorisation. The use and development of metaphors is still handcrafted rather than based on formal methods. Our framework includes evaluation of the metaphor mapping.

A semantic-aware role-based access control model for pervasive computing environments
Access control in open and dynamic Pervasive Computing Environments (PCEs) is a very complex mechanism and encompasses various new requirements. In fact, in such environments, context information should be used in access control decision process; however, it is not applicable to gather all context information completely and accurately all the time. Thus, a suitable access control model for PCEs...
متن کاملVisualisation of Semantic Enrichment
Automatically creating semantic enrichments for text may lead to annotations that allow for excellent recall but poor precision. Manual enrichment is potentially more targeted, leading to greater precision. We aim to support non-experts in manually enriching texts with semantic annotations. Neither the visualisation of semantic enrichment nor the process of manually enriching texts has been eva...
متن کاملVisualisation of Semantic Networks and Ontologies Using AutoCAD
This paper presents a visualisation of the ASN and ontologies using AutoCAD. The geometric coordinates of nodes are based on the semantic distances. The whole semantic network or some selected parts are visualised on the screen, similar to a cartographic “map”. Per mouse click on some node, an application may be opened, which allows reading and modifying the attributes of the corresponding obje...
متن کاملVisualisation of Linked Data - Reprise
Linked Data promises to serve as a disruptor of traditional approaches to data management and use, promoting the push from the traditional Web of documents to a Web of data. The ability for data consumers to adopt a follow your nose approach, traversing links defined within a dataset or across independently-curated datasets, is an essential feature of this new Web of Data, enabling richer knowl...
متن کاملVisualisation of the Semantic Web: Topic Maps Visualisation
Topic Maps provide a bridge between the domains of knowledge representation and information management by building a structured semantic network above information resources. Our research at LIP6 aims at visualizing this semantic layer efficiently, which is a critical issue as Topic Maps may contain millions of elements. This paper is divided into two parts. First, we depict briefly basic Topic ...
