Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are gaining visibility due to several sophisticated applications in which they play a key role, such as in pervasive computing and context-aware systems. However, the evolution of WSN capabilities, especially regarding their ability to provide information, brings complexity to their development, in particular for those application developers that are not familiar...

Conflicting health information is one of the primary barriers of self-management of chronic diseases. This problem is growing with the prevalence of pervasive digital health care applications. Increasing number of people now rely on mobile health apps and online health websites to meet their information needs and often receive conflicting health advice from these sources. This problem is more p...

In the present paper we expound a methodology for the development of terminology systems and the construction of semantically founded knowledge systems. This method is based on ontological mappings using reference top-level ontologies, and is inspired by rigorous logico-philosophical principles. We outline a framework consisting of a system of formal tools designed to support the development of...

We propose a long-term memory design for artificial general intelligence based on Solomonoff’s incremental machine learning methods. We use R5RS Scheme and its standard library with a few omissions as the reference machine. We introduce a Levin Search variant based on stochastic Context Free Grammar together with four synergistic update algorithms that use the same grammar as a guiding probabil...

Throughout history, man has been presented to us, on the one hand, as a barbarian, and other being endowed with reason, capable of carrying out actions for benefit his fellows etc. Man is only moral being, rational therefore often subject most controversial situations that history could register over time. In this paper we will analyze situation natural person in international law (Barbu, 2015a...
