An Extensible Component-Based Architecture for Web-Based Simulation Using Standards-Based Web Browsers
Web-based simulation (WBS) systems offer tradeoffs between user interactivity and hardware requirements striking to seek a balance between the differing concerns. Server-based systems offer little interactivity or concurrent visualization capabilities, while client-based systems have increased …

Discrete event calculus using Semantic Web technologies
… the creation of a framework that uses Semantic Web languages to implement a recently developed commonsense reasoning formalism called Discrete Event Calculus (DEC). It aims to show to what extent DEC reasoning can be applied to Semantic Web data, using the Semantic Web standards and supporting …

XML-Based Agent Scripts and Inference Mechanisms
… to be served, received and processed over the Web, or offline, in the manner similar to HTML and XML. In this thesis, we describe a system that converts the AIML scripts to Prolog clauses and reuses them as part of a knowledge processor. The inference mechanism developed in this thesis is able …

Automated analysis and validation of open chemical data
… location of chemical structures using commercial Web search engines are investigated. The IUPAC International Chemical Idenfitifer (InChI) gives almost 100% recall and precision, though is shown to be too long for present search engines. A combination of InChI and InChIKey, a shorter, fixed-length …

Semantics for the Web of Things: Modeling the Physical World as a Collection of Things and Reasoning with their Descriptions
… would provide foundations for the development of Web of Things (WoT) systems. A theory for WoT shall provide a model of the ‘things’ WoT agents relate to such that these relations determine what interactions take place between these agents. This thesis presents a knowledge-based approach in which …
