From Image Tiles to Web-Based Interactive Measurements in One Stop

January 4, 2017
Author(s)
Antoine Vandecreme, Michael P. Majurski, Joe Chalfoun, Keana Scott, John Henry Scott, Mary C. Brady, Peter Bajcsy
This article aims at introducing readers to a web-based solution useful for interactive measurements of centimeter-sized specimens at nanoscales. Modern imaging technology has enabled nanoscale imaging to become a routine process. As the imaging technology

Event model to facilitate data sharing among services

December 12, 2016
Author(s)
Olivera Kotevska, Judith R. Gelernter
Development of smart city services is presently hindered because the data is too heterogeneous, despite the increasing availability of data in open data initiatives. We determined metadata fields and semantics for our proposed model after a survey of other

Author(s)
John S. Garofolo
This is a slide for an invited panel talk at the First IEEE/ACM Symposium on Edge Computing on the need for research in edge computing and future standards related to video analytics in safety and security video network domains such as public safety.

DIGITAL SOLUTIONS FOR INTEGRATED AND COLLABORATIVE ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING

August 23, 2016
Author(s)
Yan Lu, Paul Witherell, Felipe F. Lopez, Ibrahim Assouroko
Software tools, knowledge of materials and process models, and data provide three pillars on which Additive Manufacturing (AM) lifecycles and value chains can be supported. These pillars leverage efforts dedicated to the development of AM databases, high

Enabling Smart Manufacturing Technologies for Decision-Making Support

August 21, 2016
Author(s)
Moneer M. Helu, Don E. Libes, Joshua Lubell, Kevin W. Lyons, Katherine C. Morris
Smart manufacturing combines advanced manufacturing capabilities and digital technologies throughout the product lifecycle. These technologies can provide decision-making support to manufacturers through improved monitoring, analysis, modeling, and

A New International Data Science Program

Bonnie J. Dorr, Craig Greenberg, Peter Fontana, Mark A. Przybocki, Marion Le Bras, Cathryn A. Ploehn, Oleg Aulov, Edmond J. Golden III, Wo L. Chang
We examine foundational issues in data science including current challenges, basic research questions, and expected advances, as the basis for a new Data Science Initiative and evaluation series, introduced by the Information Access Division at the

Machine Condition Detection For Milling Operations Using Low Cost Ambient Sensors

July 27, 2016
Author(s)
Anantha Narayanan Narayanan, Alec Kanyuck, Satyandra K. Gupta, Sudarsan Rachuri
In recent years, sensor technology and data mining capabilities have advanced greatly, allowing advanced manufacturing enterprises to closely monitor their manufacturing operations. Conditions such as tool breakage and tool wear can be predicted by

Getting the units right

July 25, 2016
Author(s)
Howard S. Cohl, Moritz A. Schubotz, David Veenhuis
To understand applied physics, and physical formulae in particular, the investigation of identifier units is beneficial. However, normally the units are not given explicitly in formulae and have to be inferred. In this paper, we investigate how this

Using Category Theory to facilitate multiple manufacturing service database integration

July 20, 2016
Author(s)
Spencer J. Breiner, Albert T. Jones, David I. Spivak, Eswaran Subrahmanian, Ryan Wisnesky
The goal of this paper is to illustrate the use of category theory as a basis for the integration of manufacturing service databases. In this paper we use as our reference prior work by Kolvatunyu, et. al (2013) on the use of Ontology Web Language(OWL)

Semantification of Identifiers in Mathematics for Better Math Information Retrieval

July 17, 2016
Author(s)
Moritz Schubotz, Alexey Grigoriev, Howard Cohl, Norman Meushke, Bela Gipp, Volker Markl
Mathematical formulae are essential in science, but face challenges of ambiguity, due to the use of a small number of identifiers to represent an immense number of concepts. Corresponding to word sense disambiguation in Natural Language Processing, we

Towards a Lifecycle Information Framework and Technology in Manufacturing
