A framework for responsive content adaptation in electronic display networksWest, Philip January 2006 (has links)
Recent trends show an increase in the availability and functionality of handheld devices, wireless network technology, and electronic display networks. We propose the novel integration of these technologies to provide wireless access to content delivered to large-screen display systems. Content adaptation is used as a method of reformatting web pages to display more appropriately on handheld devices, and to remove unwanted content. A framework is presented that facilitates content adaptation, implemented as an adaptation layer, which is extended to provide personalization of adaptation settings and response to network conditions. The framework is implemented as a proxy server for a wireless network, and handles HTML and XML documents. Once a document has been requested by a user, the HTML/XML is retrieved and parsed, creating a Document Object Model tree representation. It is then altered according to the user’s personal settings or predefined settings, based on current network usage and the network resources available. Three adaptation techniques were implemented; spatial representation, which generates an image map of the document, text summarization, which creates a tree view representation of a document, and tag extraction, which replaces specific tags with links. Three proof-of-concept systems were developed in order to test the robustness of the framework. A system for use with digital slide shows, a digital signage system, and a generalized system for use with the internet were implemented. Testing was performed by accessing sample web pages through the content adaptation proxy server. Tag extraction works correctly for all HTML and XML document structures, whereas spatial representation and text summarization are limited to a controlled subset. Results indicate that the adaptive system has the ability to reduce average bandwidth usage, by decreasing the amount of data on the network, thereby allowing a greater number of users access to content. This suggests that responsive content adaptation has a positive influence on network performance metrics.

Design of a generic client-server messaging interface using XMLRimer, Suvendi Chinnappen 21 September 2005 (has links)
Applications that use directory services or relational databases operate in client-server mode where a client requests information from a server, and the server returns a response to the client. Communication between each client-server application is achieved by using separate custom built front-ends with non-portable data formats. A need exists to access information from different heterogeneous client-server systems in a standard message request-response format. This research proposes a generic XML document that presents a common request-response interface to the client from which they can access network protocol or database information. The XML component is easily adaptable to accessing any new client-server type protocol or database data that may be added to a server. The approach in determining the XML elements is, firstly review each systems command and data structure separately, and then determine if there are any commonalities within each protocol that would allow for a common representation of both the data and command structure. For the purposes of this project, three different data sources that are typically used in an Internet application were analysed, namely: -- a TCP based server program; -- a relational type database; and -- a directory service. The solution was implemented using Linux as the operating system, Java as the programming language, MySQL as the relational database, openLDAP as the directory server and a proprietary TCP based server application. Initially the complete system was developed for the proprietary TCP-based application. The other systems were added with minimum additional work. The result of the implementation was that it is relatively easy to add new protocols (for e.g. LDAP) on an as needed basis with minimal changes required on the server side. A client will receive XML responses that the client can either adapt (typically using a separate style-sheet) to their specific needs or use the existing front-ends if they are suitable. After the design was implemented and tested, the performance of XML and non-XML messages was evaluated. As expected the increased verbosity of XML results in a larger footprint that requires more processing time and resources. This means that any implementation using XML has to carefully weight the benefits of flexibility, extensibility and standard message formats against reduced performance. After evaluating XML type messages in an Internet type environment that involved human-computer interaction, it was concluded that the slower response times is not that significant to negate the benefits of a common message interface provided by using XML. / Dissertation (M Eng (Computer Engineering))--University of Pretoria, 2006. / Electrical, Electronic and Computer Engineering / unrestricted

An XML-based mission command language for autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs)Van Leuvan, Barbara C., Hawkins, Darrin L. 03 1900 (has links)
Approved for public release, distribution is unlimited / Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs) are now being introduced into the fleet to improve Mine Warfare capabilities. Several AUVs are under government-contracted development. Mission planning and data reporting vary between vehicles and systems. This variance does not pose an immediate problem, as only one AUV is currently in production. However, as more AUVs are put into production, commands will begin to get multiple AUVs. Without a single mission command language, multiple systems will require familiarity with multiple languages. Extensible Markup Language (XML) and related technologies may be used to facilitate interoperability between dissimilar AUVs and extract and integrate mission data into Navy C4I systems. XML makes archive maintenance easier, XML documents can be accessed via an http server, and, in root form, XML is transferable on the fly by stylesheet. This thesis presents an XML-based mission command for the command and control of AUVs. In addition, this thesis discusses XML technology and how XML is a viable means of achieving interoperability. Furthermore, this thesis provides an example mission file using existing software, and demonstrates the future of XML in AUV technology. Finally, this work ends with a compelling argument for the use of an XML-based mission command language to command all AUVs. / Ensign, United States Navy / Captain, United States Air Force

An XML document representation method based on structure and content : application in technical document classification / An XML document representation method based on structure and content : application in technical document classificationChagheri, Samaneh 27 September 2012 (has links)
L’amélioration rapide du nombre de documents stockés électroniquement représente un défi pour la classification automatique de documents. Les systèmes de classification traditionnels traitent les documents en tant que texte plat, mais les documents sont de plus en plus structurés. Par exemple, XML est la norme plus connue et plus utilisée pour la représentation de documents structurés. Ce type des documents comprend des informations complémentaires sur l'organisation du contenu représentées par différents éléments comme les titres, les sections, les légendes etc. Pour tenir compte des informations stockées dans la structure logique, nous proposons une approche de représentation des documents structurés basée à la fois sur la structure logique du document et son contenu textuel. Notre approche étend le modèle traditionnel de représentation du document appelé modèle vectoriel. Nous avons essayé d'utiliser d'information structurelle dans toutes les phases de la représentation du document: -procédure d'extraction de caractéristiques, -La sélection des caractéristiques, -Pondération des caractéristiques. Notre deuxième contribution concerne d’appliquer notre approche générique à un domaine réel : classification des documents techniques. Nous désirons mettre en œuvre notre proposition sur une collection de documents techniques sauvegardés électroniquement dans la société CONTINEW spécialisée dans l'audit de documents techniques. Ces documents sont en format représentations où la structure logique est non accessible. Nous proposons une solution d’interprétation de documents pour détecter la structure logique des documents à partir de leur présentation physique. Ainsi une collection hétérogène en différents formats de stockage est transformée en une collection homogène de documents XML contenant le même schéma logique. Cette contribution est basée sur un apprentissage supervisé. En conclusion, notre proposition prend en charge l'ensemble de flux de traitements des documents partant du format original jusqu’à la détermination de la ses classe Dans notre système l’algorithme de classification utilisé est SVM. / Rapid improvement in the number of documents stored electronically presents a challenge for automatic classification of documents. Traditional classification systems consider documents as a plain text; however documents are becoming more and more structured. For example, XML is the most known and used standard for structured document representation. These documents include supplementary information on content organization represented by different elements such as title, section, caption etc. We propose an approach on structured document classification based on both document logical structure and its content in order to take into account the information present in logical structure. Our approach extends the traditional document representation model called Vector Space Model (VSM). We have tried to integrate structural information in all phases of document representation construction: -Feature extraction procedure, -Feature selection, -Feature weighting. Our second contribution concerns to apply our generic approach to a real domain of technical documentation. We desire to use our proposition for classifying technical documents electronically saved in CONTINEW; society specialized in technical document audit. These documents are in legacy format in which logical structure is inaccessible. Then we propose an approach for document understanding in order to extract documents logical structure from their presentation layout. Thus a collection of heterogeneous documents in different physical presentations and formats is transformed to a homogenous XML collection sharing the same logical structure. Our contribution is based on learning approach where each logical element is described by its physical characteristics. Therefore, our proposal supports whole document transformation workflow from document’s original format to being classified. In our system SVM has been used as classification algorithm.

Martial Arts as a markup languageUnknown Date (has links)
This thesis describes the modeling of Martial Arts as a markup language. Up until now Martial Arts has already been documented in books, videos, tradition and other methods. Though to represent Martial Arts knowledge consistently and uniformly in a digital era, we introduce the Martial Arts Markup Language (MAML), which is based on XML. Because XML provides a standardized, serializable and portable format, MAML also enables sharing among students, teachers and their peers across different platforms, media and networks. MAML provides the ability, with appropriate XML tools, to document a Martial Arts style in a structured way. To achieve this, we first analyze the aspects that comprise Martial Arts; and how its states and processes relate to one another. We model in MAML describing the stances, transitions, punches, blocks, techniques, combinations, reactions and patterns used in Martial Arts. We discuss the implementation of MAML by observing and extracting the definable aspects in existing Martial Art Instructive Documents. The MAML Schema assures that the details of a Martial Arts Style’s elements are consistent. Current simulation efforts will be explained as well as areas for future development. We have described Martial Arts by observing what has already been done and creating a structured standard to document them. We hope to enable practitioners’ abilities to learn from and develop their arts by providing a resource in which they can interact with. / Includes bibliography. / Thesis (M.S.)--Florida Atlantic University, 2014. / FAU Electronic Theses and Dissertations Collection

Discovering and Tracking Interesting Web ServicesRocco, Daniel J. (Daniel John) 01 December 2004 (has links)
The World Wide Web has become the standard mechanism for information distribution and scientific collaboration on the Internet. This dissertation research explores a suite of techniques for discovering relevant dynamic sources in a specific domain of interest and for managing Web data effectively. We first explore techniques for discovery and automatic classification of dynamic Web sources. Our approach utilizes a service class model of the dynamic Web that allows the characteristics of interesting services to be specified using a service class description.
To promote effective Web data management, the Page Digest Web document encoding eliminates tag redundancy and places structure, content, tags, and attributes into separate containers, each of which can be referenced in isolation or in conjunction with the other elements of the document. The Page Digest Sentinel system leverages our unique encoding to provide efficient and scalable change monitoring for arbitrary Web documents through document compartmentalization and semantic change request grouping.
Finally, we present XPack, an XML document compression system that uses a containerized view of an XML document to provide both good compression and efficient querying over compressed documents. XPack's queryable XML compression format is general-purpose, does not rely on domain knowledge or particular document structural characteristics for compression, and achieves better query performance than standard query processors using text-based XML.
Our research expands the capabilities of existing dynamic Web techniques, providing superior service discovery and classification services, efficient change monitoring of Web information, and compartmentalized document handling. DynaBot is the first system to combine a service class view of the Web with a modular crawling architecture to provide automated service discovery and classification. The Page Digest Web document encoding represents Web documents efficiently by separating the individual characteristics of the document. The Page Digest Sentinel change monitoring system utilizes the Page Digest document encoding for scalable change monitoring through efficient change algorithms and intelligent request grouping. Finally, XPack is the first XML compression system that delivers compression rates similar to existing techniques while supporting better query performance than standard query processors using text-based XML.
