As peer-to-peer networks are proving capable of handling huge volumes of data, the need for effective search tools is lasting and imperative. During the last years, a number of research studies have been published, which attempt to address the problem of search in large, decentralized networks. In this article, we mainly focus on content and concept-based retrieval. After providing a useful discussion on terminology, we introduce a representative sample of such studies and categorize them according to basic functional and non-functional characteristics. Following our analysis and discussion we conclude that future work should focus on information filtering, re-ranking and merging of results, relevance feedback and content replication as well as on related user-centric aspects of the problem. 相似文献

Enterprises increasingly recognize the compelling economic and operational benefits from virtualizing and pooling IT resources in the cloud. Nevertheless, the significant and valuable transformation of organizations that adopt cloud computing is accompanied by a number of security threats that should be considered. In this paper, we outline significant security challenges presented when migrating to a cloud environment and propose PaaSword – a novel holistic framework that aspires to alleviate these challenges. Specifically, the proposed framework involves a context-aware security model, the necessary policies enforcement mechanism along with a physical distribution, encryption and query middleware. 相似文献

Moments constitute a well-known tool in the field of image analysis and pattern recognition, but they suffer from the drawback
of high computational cost. Efforts for the reduction of the required computational complexity have been reported, mainly
focused on binary images, but recently some approaches for gray images have been also presented. In this study, we propose
a simple but effective approach for the computation of gray image moments. The gray image is decomposed in a set of binary
images. Some of these binary images are substituted by an ideal image, which is called “half-intensity” image. The remaining
binary images are represented using the image block representation concept and their moments are computed fast using block
techniques. The proposed method computes approximated moment values with an error of 2–3% from the exact values and operates
in real time (i.e., video rate). The procedure is parameterized by the number m of “half-intensity” images used, which controls the approximation error and the speed gain of the method. The computational
complexity is O(kL
2), where k is the number of blocks and L is the moment order. 相似文献

ABSTRACT Studies of urban energy transitions place less attention to governance dynamics in diversified contexts. This paper thus focuses on an ordinary city, Philadelphia, and its place-based policy innovations in commercial energy efficiency. It develops an analytical framework at the intersection of multi-level governance and socio-technical urban energy change, which applies for a set of key policy initiatives in Philadelphia. The analysis demonstrates the importance of local and broader economic conditions, as well as actor political orientations, for the city’s transformative capacity. It also offers a fine-grained view of transition actors, stressing the key role of third-sector entities for systemic change. 相似文献

This paper describes a binary image representation scheme, called Image Block Representation and presents new algorithms for a number of basic binary image processing and analysis operations, which are rapidly implemented on block-represented binary images. The main purpose of the Image Block Representation is to provide an efficient binary image representation that permits the execution of operations on image areas instead of image points. 相似文献

The main objective of the work presented herein is to assess the effect of different electron donors (butyric acid and methanol) on the dechlorinating activity of two microbial cultures where active methanogenic populations are present, in an effort to evaluate the importance of the electron donor selection process. The ability of each anaerobic culture to dechlorinate TCE, when enriched with either butyric acid or methanol, was verified based on the results of gas chromatography. In addition, the fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) and the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) methods gave positive results for the presence of Dehalococcoides spp. According to results of the batch tests conducted in this study, it appears that the selection of the electron donor for stimulating TCE dechlorination depends on microbial culture composition; therefore, the decision on the appropriate electron donor should be based on site-specific microcosm studies. 相似文献

The requirements for effective search and management of the WWW are stronger than ever. Currently Web documents are classified based on their content not taking into account the fact that these documents are connected to each other by links. We claim that a pages classification is enriched by the detection of its incoming links semantics. This would enable effective browsing and enhance the validity of search results in the WWW context. Another aspect that is underaddressed and strictly related to the tasks of browsing and searching is the similarity of documents at the semantic level. The above observations lead us to the adoption of a hierarchy of concepts (ontology) and a thesaurus to exploit links and provide a better characterization of Web documents. The enhancement of document characterization makes operations such as clustering and labeling very interesting. To this end, we devised a system called THESUS. The system deals with an initial sets of Web documents, extracts keywords from all pages incoming links, and converts them to semantics by mapping them to a domains ontology. Then a clustering algorithm is applied to discover groups of Web documents. The effectiveness of the clustering process is based on the use of a novel similarity measure between documents characterized by sets of terms. Web documents are organized into thematic subsets based on their semantics. The subsets are then labeled, thereby enabling easier management (browsing, searching, querying) of the Web. In this article, we detail the process of this system and give an experimental analysis of its results.Received: 16 December 2002, Accepted: 16 April 2003, Published online: 17 September 2003 相似文献

Different configurations of gearbox, generator and power converter exist for offshore wind turbines. This paper investigated the performance of four prominent drive train configurations over a range of sites distinguished by their distance to shore. Failure rate data from onshore and offshore wind turbine populations was used where available or systematically estimated where no data was available. This was inputted along with repair resource requirements to an offshore accessibility and operation and maintenance model to calculate availability and operation and maintenance costs for a baseline wind farm consisting of 100 turbines. The results predicted that turbines with a permanent magnet generator and a fully rated power converter will have a higher availability and lower operation and maintenance costs than turbines with doubly fed induction generators. This held true for all sites in this analysis. It was also predicted that in turbines with a permanent magnet generator, the direct drive configuration has the highest availability and lowest operation and maintenance costs followed by the turbines with two‐stage and three‐stage gearboxes.
