Everything You Wanted To Know About Licensing Agreements, Gordon C. Tibbitts
Everything You Wanted To Know About Licensing Agreements, Gordon C. Tibbitts
Gordon C. Tibbitts III
This presentation explores the intricacies of licensing agreements to help develop strategies for negotiating the broadest possible access to electronic content for a library. Issues such as inter-library loan restrictions, archiving, duplication among aggregator databases, and withdrawal of content are discussed. The process of negotiating licensing agreements and how to identify those clauses that are particularly important or sensitive are described. How to draft library-friendly agreements and collaborative ways librarians and information providers can work together to find solutions to the evolving problems of content access and delivery are described.
Adaptive Agents For Supply Networks, Gavin Finnie, Jeffrey Barker
Adaptive Agents For Supply Networks, Gavin Finnie, Jeffrey Barker
Jeffrey Barker
Dynamic information flow in esupply networks requires that buyers and suppliers have the ability to react rapidly when needed. Using intelligent agents to automate the process of buyer/seller interaction has been proposed by a number of researchers. One problem in providing intelligent automated collaboration is incorporating learning capability i.e. an agent should be capable of adapting its behaviour as conditions change. This paper proposes a scalable multi-agent system which uses case-based reasoning as a framework for at least part of its intelligence. Tests with a simulated system show that such an agent is capable of learning the best supplier and …
Removing Excess Topology From Isosurfaces, Zoë J. Wood, Hugues Hoppe, Mathieu Desbrun, Peter Shröder
Removing Excess Topology From Isosurfaces, Zoë J. Wood, Hugues Hoppe, Mathieu Desbrun, Peter Shröder
Zoë Wood
Many high-resolution surfaces are created through isosurface extraction from volumetric representations, obtained by 3D photography, CT, or MRI. Noise inherent in the acquisition process can lead to geometrical and topological errors. Reducing geometrical errors during reconstruction is well studied. However, isosurfaces often contain many topological errors in the form of tiny handles. These nearly invisible artifacts hinder subsequent operations like mesh simplification, remeshing, and parametrization. In this article we present a practical method for removing handles in an isosurface. Our algorithm makes an axis-aligned sweep through the volume to locate handles, compute their sizes, and selectively remove them. The algorithm …

Necessity of adaptation the Polish law in the field of the environment protection to the European Union law caused to adopt new criterions and methods of the air quality assessment. One of the methods of the air quality assessment is modeling of the substance levels in the air based on the calculation of the air pollutant dispersion in the atmosphere. Thus necessary changes also encompassed the basic methodology applied in our country for many years that had made possible calculation of the air pollution caused by existing and new emission sources. After some modifications the computation method was adopted as …

In the paper some differences between various computational models applied to the atmospheric dispersion modeling were presented. These models each other were compared as regards the expanse-time scale of computation, description way of the wind field and the frame of reference for the air particle moves. Particular attention was paid to the Gauss plume model that was a base for a modeling method of the pollutant levels in the air accepting in Poland as the reference methodology. A general description, applications and limitations of this methodology were presented, as well data essential to the computation, way of the data preparing …

Dynamic Semantic Web, Rudolf Kaehr

Dynamic Semantic Web (DSW) is based at first on the techniques, methods and paradigms of the emerging Semantic Web movement and its applications. DSW is advancing one fundamental step further from a static to a dynamic concept of the Semantic Web with extended flexibility in the navigation between ontologies and more profound transparency of the informational system. Web Services are now redefinded by Semantic Web. To proof the advantages of DSW, it is the main aim of this project to develop the tools and methods necessary to develop a DSW based Web Service (DSW business application). The existing framework of …

BACKGROUND: Integral membrane proteins constitute about 20-30% of all proteins in the fully sequenced genomes. They come in two structural classes, the alpha-helical and the beta-barrel membrane proteins, demonstrating different physicochemical characteristics, structure and localization. While transmembrane segment prediction for the alpha-helical integral membrane proteins appears to be an easy task nowadays, the same is much more difficult for the beta-barrel membrane proteins. We developed a method, based on a Hidden Markov Model, capable of predicting the transmembrane beta-strands of the outer membrane proteins of gram-negative bacteria, and discriminating those from water-soluble proteins in large datasets. The model is trained …

An Introduction To Artificial Intelligence And Legal Reasoning: Using Xtalk To Model The Alien Tort Claims Act And Torture Victim Protection Act, Eric A. Engle
Eric A. Engle
This paper presents an introduction to artificial intelligence for legal scholars and includes a computer program that determines the existence of jurisdiction, defences, and applicability of the Alien Tort Claims Act and Torture Victims Protection Act. The paper includes a discussion of the limits and implications of computer programming in formal representations of the law. Concluding that formalization of the law reveals implicit weaknesses in reductionist legal theories, this paper emphasizes the limitations in practice of such theories.
