The problem of records retention is often viewed as simply deleting records when they have outlived their purpose. However, in the world of relational databases there is no standardized notion of a business record and its retention obligations. Unlike physical documents such as forms and reports, information in databases is organized such that one item of data may be part of various legal recor...

Secure provenance that records the ownership and process history of data objects is vital to the success of data forensics in cloud computing. In this paper, we propose a new secure provenance scheme based on group signature and attribute-based signature techniques. The proposed provenance scheme provides confidentiality on sensitive documents stored in a cloud, unforgeability of the provenance...

Many methods for XML processing have been proposed in the last few years. One popular approach is to process XML documents by using existing programming languages. Another popular approach is to create a new programming language specialized to the domain of XML processing. We propose a new approach of constructing XML processors: embedding XML processing language on Lisp. Owing to this approach...

Future digital libraries will not only contain pure text documents, but increasingly hold massive amounts of compound documents which comprise many multimedia objects, e.g. texts, images, audio, and video. Already existing collections of documents, e.g. all electronic health records of one clinic can form a digital library with millions of multimedia objects and a total storage of several terab...

Segmenting documents into discrete, sentence-like units is usually a first step in any natural language processing pipeline. However, current segmentation tools perform poorly on text that contains markup. While stripping markup is a simple solution, we argue for the utility of the extra-linguistic information encoded by markup and present a scheme for normalising markup across disparate format...

Web Data Mining is an important area of Data Mining which deals with the extraction of interesting knowledge from the World Wide Web. It defines the application of data mining techniques to extract knowledge from web data, including web documents, hyperlinks between documents, usage logs of web sites, etc. Therefore, the process of extracting useful information from the contents of web document...

One important problem of information systems in healthcare is the localisation and access to electronic patient records across healthcare institute boundaries, especially in an international setting. The Integrating the Healthcare Enterprise initiative proposes the Retrieve Information for Display integration profile that enables a user to retrieve and display patient related documents on syste...

The most cumbersome aspect of health care is the extensive documentation which is legally required for each patient. For these reasons, physicians and their assistants spend about 30% of their time documenting encounters. Paper charts are slowly being phased out due to inconvenience, inability to mine data, costs and safety concerns. Many practices are now investing in electronic medical record...
