As a fundamental problem of data management and application technology, schema matching has aroused the universal concern of the academic circles worldwide in recent years. In order to deepen the understandings of schema matching between spatial data and to identify its uses, the documentation method is adopted in this paper to firstly summarize and describe the foundation position and guidance...

Ontology is an important emerging discipline that has the huge potential to improve information organization, management and understanding. It has a crucial role to play in enabling content-based access, interoperability, communications, and providing qualitatively new levels of services on the next generation of Web transformation in the form of the Semantic Web. The issues pertaining to ontol...

Researches indicate that adoption of open innovation strategies in the entrepreneurships offers a promising way to face the ever increasing challenges due to globalization of entrepreneurships. However, in spite of abundance of researches, practices and case studies on adoption of open innovation strategies in relatively larger firms or corporate houses, studies are rare in the other sector of ...

The objective of this embedded tutorial is to give an overview for the state of the art of the pass-transistor logic technologies and their future prospects. The talk gives a survey summary for recent researches and developments on the pass-transistor logic technologies based on more than 100 surveyed papers that have been published after 1983. The number of publications has been rapidly increa...

This paper aims to present a short survey on two numerical functions determined by a hypergroupoid, called the fuzzy grade and the intuitionistic fuzzy grade of a hypergroupoid. It starts with the main construction of the sequences of join spaces and (intuitionistic) fuzzy sets associated with a hypergroupoid. After some computations of the above grades, we discuss some similarities and differe...

This paper will take a brief look at the usage of genetic algorithms in steganography. Steganography media which is subjected is image files. So, some of recent studies that introduce the steganography methods are listed and described in brief. As it is seen, robustness and capacity are two important factors that are considered in almost all steganography methods. Also, different methods use on...

We overview the research on interactive evolutionary computation (IEC). The IEC is an EC that optimizes systems based on human subjective evaluation. First, the definition and features of the IEC are described. Then, the overview of the IEC research follows. The overview consists of two parts: application and interface researches. The IEC application fields in this survey include graphic art an...

A great deal of researches in the area of agent-oriented software engineering focuses on proposing methodologies for agent systems, i.e., on identifying the guidelines to drive the various phases of agent-based software development and the abstractions to be exploited in these phases. However, very little attention has been paid so far to the engineering process subjacent the development activi...
