A methodology for a Very Small Data Base design

This paper proposes a design methodology for very small databases for the purpose of being hosted by portable devices. Three main differences w.r.t. the traditional design methodologies are introduced: first, the main mobility issues are considered along with data distribution; second, context awareness is included in the data design issues to allow full exploitation of context-sensitive application functionalities; and third, the peculiarities of the storage device  (s$s$) are taken into account by introducing a logistic phase after the usual conceptual and logical phases. The three aspects together determine the VSDB ambient which is the set of personal and environmental characteristics determining the portion of data that must be stored on the portable device. This paper details the design methodology in its conceptual, logical and logistic phases.     

Some Empirical Criteria for Attributing Creativity to a Computer Program

Over recent decades there has been a growing interest in the question of whether computer programs are capable of genuinely creative activity. Although this notion can be explored as a purely philosophical debate, an alternative perspective is to consider what aspects of the behaviour of a program might be noted or measured in order to arrive at an empirically supported judgement that creativity has occurred. We sketch out, in general abstract terms, what goes on when a potentially creative program is constructed and run, and list some of the relationships (for example, between input and output) which might contribute to a decision about creativity. Specifically, we list a number of criteria which might indicate interesting properties of a program’s behaviour, from the perspective of possible creativity. We go on to review some ways in which these criteria have been applied to actual implementations, and some possible improvements to this way of assessing creativity.

A Review of Approaches to Developing Service Management Systems

As service management systems are deployed in an open service market environment, the pressures on their developers to shorten development times and improve the flexibility of systems will increase. Component reuse may help in alleviating some of these pressures; however, while object-oriented reuse is used in the definition of interfaces for management systems, the systematic application of reuse to the systems' internal design is not well established. This paper examines some of the approaches applicable to service management system development from the Telecommunications, Distributed Systems, Internet and Software Engineering fields. Experience in applying some of these approaches is presented, and based on this, refined approaches to service management system development are discussed.     

RAPID ONLINE MONITORING OF A HETEROGENEOUS CATALYST BY A PULSED REACTOR COUPLED TO GC-MS

A rapid screening system for heterogeneous catalyst discovery has been developed by coupling an in-house designed and fabricated high temperature vapor phase pulse reactor on-line to a GC-MS. The incorporation of gas chromatography for separation of the products with the mass spectrometry system allowed simultaneous identification and determination of reaction products and substrate conversion. This system was employed to study the vapor phase catalytic hydride transfer reduction (CHTR) of nitrobenzene with methanol as hydrogen donor on an MgO catalyst as a model reaction. Structural information of all the by-products that were formed was useful to understand the reaction mechanism. The products obtained with the new screening technique were in good agreement with conventional bench scale experiments. The rapid online screening provided an efficient methodology for optimization of reaction conditions such as catalyst loading, reaction temperature, and mole ratios. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the conversion of reactants and selectivity of products.

为了获得海洋芽孢杆菌LJ-7发酵产酯酶的最佳条件,采用响应面法对其发酵条件进行了优化。首先,通过单因素试验选出对酯酶产量影响较显著的3个因素,即发酵温度、初始pH和发酵时间。在单因素试验的基础上,采用Box-Benhnken中心组合方法进行三因素三水平的试验设计,以酶活为响应值,利用响应面分析法进行进一步优化,确定最佳发酵条件为:发酵时间42.81h,发酵温度29.40℃,pH为6.21,此时预测的酯酶酶活为24.91 U/mL。在此最佳条件下,平行试验测得实际酶活为24.63U/mL,达到理论预测值的95%以上。该模型较好地预测了实际发酵情况,得到的优化条件具有实际应用价值。
