Guided-based systems are an alternative to natural language systems regarding the query construction method. We present a new solution that bridges the gap between these two types of systems by providing a hybrid interface which combines a graphical query interface for query construction withthe correspondent natural language expression automatically generated by the system.
We describe a decision-support tool that optimizes the energy services of residential end-users by scheduling the operation of available distributed energy resources. We discuss the application of the tool to a 's...

In this paper, we expose the results of an experimental study of acoustic properties of geminated consonants in Arabic language. We aim to determinate the temporal relationship between doubled consonant and the length of the vowel preceding them in a VCCV sequence. We compare these values withthose measured for a VCV sequence. the results proved that the duration of simple consonant was sensibly different from the geminated one and same for the duration of the vowel preceding it. this work was undertaken to determinate the consonant duration characteristics to distinguish between a simple consonant and the geminated one in standard Arabic speech recognition.

Semantic search importance is growing each day as millions of people around the world need to obtain objective and concrete information. Guided-based systems are an alternative to natural language systems regarding the query construction method. However, current guided-based systems perform query validation only at a syntactical level. In this paper we address the semantic validation of queries in order to avoid redundancy and incoherency, therefore preventing the formulation of queries that do not make sense.

Information on the ratings of several features of items can be deployed to improve the quality of recommendations in recommender systems by incorporating them into similarity calculation between any two users or two items. However, the incremental information of these features has important impacts on recommender systems. For example, the complexity of similarity calculation is increased and more resources are consumed during the process for generating recommendations. In this paper, we propose several techniques by using this information to provide relevant recommendations and to reduce the complexity in similarity computation by directly matching between preferences of user and the strength of item features.

the continuous decentralisation and distribution of software, hardware, and human resources depends on a number of fundamental factors including the ability to provide desired Quality of Service (QoS) on resources assembled dynamically from enterprises, service providers and customer systems. Despite recent developments there are still many challenges in efficient information delivery and management services for distributed architectures. In this work we are particularly interested withthe use of intelligent decision making mechanisms for the management of distributed architectures. Our research aims at designing and developing an intelligent decision making mechanism for the management, distribution, control and optimisation of systems resources within large distributed systems which allows dynamic system architecture configuration and provisioning.

A new paradigm to design computer systems called evolving reconfigurable architecture (ERA) is proposed. Several holistic principles are introduced and pursued through the ERA design cycle. We show how reconfigurability is implemented at the level of hardware elements and system software structure. Two new models: (i) graph-logic and (ii) control-data-predicate are introduced and applied in the ERA. We propose a scheme to transform sequential programs for execution on ERA, we also show that ERA has exceptional flexibility and reconfigurability and fits embedded, high performance and safety critical applications. Finally, further progress of ERA is discussed.
