Building Scalable and Smart Multimedia Applications on the Semantic Web

Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2009 in the subject Business economics - Information Management, grade: 1,0, University of Graz, language: English, abstract: The Semantic Web has become reality over the past couple of years. While certain practical topics-such as interoperability, etc.-have at least partially been addressed, scalability and expressivity issues regarding the utilisation of multimedia metadata on the Semantic Web are still widely neglected. However, existing Web (2.0) applications handling millions of multimedia assets are starting to take advantage of Semantic Web technologies. This work contributes to design decisions regarding scalable and smart multimedia applications on the Semantic Web. Based on an analysis of practical issues-stemming from diverse projects and activities the author has participated in over the past four years-three areas have been identified, namely (i) performance and scalability issues on the data access level, (ii) the effective and efficient representation of multimedia content descriptions, and (iii) the deployment of multimedia metadata on the Semantic Web. The three research areas have as its common base the trade-off between expressivity and scalability. We present our findings regarding scalable, yet expressive Semantic Web multimedia applications in a number of practical settings and discuss future directions, such as interlinking multimedia.

With this book, the promise of the Semantic Web -- in which machines can find, share, and combine data on the Web -- is not just a technical possibility, but a practical reality Programming the Semantic Web demonstrates several ways to implement semantic web applications, using current and emerging standards and technologies. You'll learn how to incorporate existing data sources into semantically aware applications and publish rich semantic data. Each chapter walks you through a single piece of semantic technology and explains how you can use it to solve real problems. Whether you're writing a simple mashup or maintaining a high-performance enterprise solution,Programming the Semantic Web provides a standard, flexible approach for integrating and future-proofing systems and data. This book will help you: Learn how the Semantic Web allows new and unexpected uses of data to emerge Understand how semantic technologies promote data portability with a simple, abstract model for knowledge representation Become familiar with semantic standards, such as the Resource Description Framework (RDF) and the Web Ontology Language (OWL) Make use of semantic programming techniques to both enrich and simplify current web applications
Advances in Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing

This volume contains the technical papers presented in the seven high-quality workshops associated with the European Conference on Service-Oriented and Cloud Computing, ESOCC 2015, held in Taormina, Italy, in September 2015: Third International Workshop on Cloud for IoT (CLloT 2015), 5th International Workshop on Adaptive Services for the Future Internet (WAS4FI 2015), Second Workshop on Seamless Adaptive Multi-cloud Management of Service-Based Applications (SeaClouds 2015), First International Workshop on Cloud Adoption and Migration (CloudWay 2015), First International Workshop on Digital Enterprise Architecture and Engineering (IDEA 2015), First Workshop on Federated Cloud Networking (FedCloudNet 2015). Abstracts of the presentations held at the European Projects Forum (EU Projects 2015) are included in the back matter of this volume. The 25 full papers and 6 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 48 submissions. They focus on specific topics in service-oriented and cloud computing domains such as limits and /or advantages of existing cloud solutions, Future Internet technologies, efficient and adaptive deployment and management of service-based applications across multiple clouds, novel cloud service migration practices and solutions, digitization of enterprises in the cloud computing era, federated cloud networking services.
