A Probabilistic Framework for Semantic Similarity and Ontology Mapping

April 1, 2007
Author(s)
Boonserm Kulvatunyou, Nenad Ivezic, Albert W. Jones, Yun Peng, Zhongli Ding, Rong Pan, Yang Yu, Hyunbo Cho
We propose a probabilistic framework to address uncertainty in ontology-based semantic integration and interopera-tion. This framework consists of three main components: 1) BayesOWL that translates an OWL ontology to a Bayes-ian network, 2) SLBN

A Validation Architecture for Advanced Interoperability Provisioning

August 1, 2006
Author(s)
Nenad Ivezic, Edward J. Barkmeyer Jr., Boonserm Kulvatunyou, Albert W. Jones, Pat Snack, Zuran Marjanovic, Hyunbo Cho
We describe an architecture to validate new tools in support of interoperability provisioning processes that take place within industrial communities. We start from a best-practices standards development process where an industry community develops

An Infrastructure to Support Performance Analysis in Complex Systems

August 1, 2006
Author(s)
Man-Sze Li, A S. Deshmukh, Albert T. Jones
Systems research efforts have increased in a variety of disciplines. Despite these efforts, it is still difficult to predict long-term performance and to understand the relationship between the performance of the parts and the performance of the whole. The

Evaluating Suitability for Replacement of an Integrated Software Component

August 1, 2006
Author(s)
Boonserm Kulvatunyou, B Jeong, Hyunbo Cho, Nenad Ivezic, Albert W. Jones
An evaluation of the compatibility of a software component is based typically only on a vendor?s presentation. This means that end users select a software component only based on high-level matches of functional requirements. This can result in an

Manufacturing Interoperability

May 1, 2006
Author(s)
Steven R. Ray, Albert T. Jones
National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, MD 20899, USA ABSTRACT: As manufacturing and commerce become ever more global in nature, companies are increasingly dependent upon the efficient and effective exchange of information with their

Semantic Enterprise Application Integration Standards

April 1, 2006
Author(s)
Nenad Anicic, Zuran Marjanovic, Nenad Ivezic, Albert T. Jones
This paper investigates the potential of the Semantic Web technologies to support a semantic-based Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) standards architecture. We give a detailed information of the support that these technologies and the underlying

Towards Semantic-Based Supply Chain Integration

July 1, 2005
Author(s)
Nenad Ivezic, Nenad Anicic, Albert T. Jones, Zuran Marjanovic
We describe a novel Enterprise Application Integration (EAI) architecture based on existing B2B standards. We show how such an EAI architecture can use automated reasoning tools to provide application integration support and validation capabilities. We

An Architecture for Semantic Enterprise Application Integration Standards

April 1, 2005
Author(s)
Nenad Anicic, Nenad Ivezic, Albert T. Jones
Large, industry-wide interoperability projects use syntax-based standards approaches to accomplish interoperable data exchange among enterprise applications. We are investigating Semantic Web to advance these approaches. In this paper, we describe an

Content-Level Conformance Testing: An Information Mapping Case Study

March 1, 2005
Author(s)
Boonserm Kulvatunyou, Nenad Ivezic, Albert T. Jones
Content-level conformance testing is a key to achieving interoper-able data exchange among applications deployed across collaborating, yet in-dependent enterprises. In this paper, we identify four types of content-level conformance tests to support

Test Beds for Complex Systems

January 1, 2005
Author(s)
Albert T. Jones, A S. Deshmukh
Global competition requires major manufacturers to increase productivity, quality, and responsiveness while simultaneously decreasing costs and time to market. To achieve these seemingly conflicting requirements, they have expanded the outsourcing trends

Enterprise Simulation: A Hybrid System Approach

April 1, 2004
Author(s)
Luis C. Rabelo, M Helal, Hyeung-Sik Min, Albert T. Jones
Manufacturing enterprise decisions can be classified into four groups: business decisions, design decisions, engineering decisions, and production decisions. Numerous physical and software simulation techniques have been used to evaluate specific decisions
