Background and Context: In this project, we wish to develop multi-rate multicast schemes for heterogeneous (3STV) receivers. This is desirable form several points of view. Due to high bandwidth requirement of multimedia applications, multicasting is strongly demanded to reduce the network load. Multicasting, however, cannot solve the receiver heterogeneity problem. We propose the combination of...

Analysing and understanding the evolution of historic artefacts requires the crossexamination of indications ranging from specific pieces of data (remains of the edifice, archival materials, etc.), to generic pieces of knowledge (historical context, comparable cases, theory of architecture, etc.). This research is based on the premise that the artefact’s acts as a media allowing the integration...

This article presents a survey of authorization models and considers their 'fitness-for-purpose' in facilitating information sharing. Network-supported information sharing is an important technical capability that underpins collaboration in support of dynamic and unpredictable activities such as emergency response, national security, infrastructure protection, supply chain integration and emerg...

Due to diversified and frequently changing demands from customers, technological advances and global competition, manufacturers rely on collaboration with their business partners to share costs, risks and expertise. How to take advantage of advancement of technologies to effectively support operations and create competitive advantage is critical for manufacturers to survive. To respond to these...

To see is to know. When you understand what you see, then you can trust what you are seeing. In this paper we present ThemeMountain, an SVG-based Visual Data Mining tool. ThemeMountain is inspired by ThemeRiver [Hav02], a tool that identifies sequential patterns, trends and temporal relationships within large collections of documents and analyzes them over time. A collection of documents or oth...

SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is expected to be a new standard for graphic data on the Internet. In the near future, many maps on the Internet will be formatted as SVG. SVG-formatted maps are relatively easy to be understood by machines because of their internal design structures compared with image-formatted maps which have been mainly used as graphics on the Web. This paper introduces backgr...

TikZ is a system which can be used to specify graphics of very high quality. For example, accurate placement of picture elements, use of TEX fonts, ability to incorporate mathematical typesetting, and the possibility of introducing macros can be viewed as positive factors of this system. The syntax uses an amalgamation of ideas from METAFONT, METAPOST, PSTricks, and SVG, allowing its users to “...

The dawn of new technologies on the horizon, such as telecommunication, mobile internet, and handheld computing devices, offers new chances to the discipline of cartography. However, existing approaches to mobile cartography mostly have a commercial background and are rather technology centred. This quite narrow view ignores many relevant problems and does not fully profit from the new possibil...
