For hybrid systems which incorporate both dynamical and discrete event models in process industries, the mass balance models will be changed because of discrete scheduling events. The redundancy degree of whole sensor network is time variant so that the conventional data reconciliation is very difficult to be implemented. In this paper a new approach of data reconciliation for hybrid system is ...

■ Abstract Sociality is favored by natural selection because it enhances group members’ access to valued resources or reduces their vulnerability to predators, but group living also generates conflict among group members. To enjoy the benefits of sociality, group living animals must somehow overcome the costs of conflict. Nonhuman primates have developed an effective mechanism for resolving con...

INTRODUCTION Medication reconciliation improves congruence in cross sectional patient courses. Our regional electronic medical record (EMR) integrates the shared medication record (SMR) which provides full access to current medication and medication prescriptions for all citizens in Denmark. We studied whether our SMR integration could facilitate medication reconciliation. MATERIAL AND METHOD...

Multicore main-memory database performance can collapse when many transactions contend on the same data. Contending transactions are executed serially—either by locks or by optimistic concurrency control aborts—in order to ensure that they have serializable effects. This leaves many cores idle and performance poor. We introduce a new concurrency control technique, phase reconciliation, that sol...

Providing automatic integration solutions is the key to the success of applications managing massive amounts of data. Two main problems stand out in the major studies: i the management of the source heterogeneity ii the reconciliation of query results. To tackle the first problem, formal ontologies are used to explicit the semantic of data. The reconciliation problem consists in deciding whethe...

Semantic reconciliation is an important step in determining logical connectivity between a data source (databcise) and a data receiver (application). Semantic reconciliation is used to determine if the semantics of the data provided by the source is meaningful to the receiver. In this paper we describe a rule-bzised approach to semantic specification and demonstrate how this specification can b...
