The Broadband Wireless Access (BWA) technology has been proposed to support different traffic classes with distinct quality of service (QoS) requirements in broadband metropolitan area networks. Therefore, as part of its specifications, such a system must properly address the combined requirements of wireless communications and multimedia applications. We propose in this paper an extension to the MAC protocol presented in [1, 2], by assigning variable priorities to the network stations sharing access to the communication channel. An analytical model to evaluate the performance of the proposed protocol is also developed and results obtained for the messages waiting times at different stations are presented. In addition, simulation data are used to compare the results obtained from the analytical model presented previously. It is concluded that the proposed variable priority MAC protocol is able to improve channel utilization and provide throughput and queueing delay fairness among the stations in the network.
OBJECTIVE – The objective of this paper is to determine under what circumstances individual organisations would be able to rely on cross-company based estimation models. METHOD – We performed a systematic review of ...

Broadband wireless access (BWA) systems offer a solution for broadband access and high data rate transmission of multimedia services with distinct quality-of-service (QoS) requirements through a wireless medium, IEEE 802.16 standard specifies the PHY and MAC layers for BWA systems. However, in spite of including the possibility for QoS support, the standard does not define how to schedule different types of traffic. This article propose a new MAC protocol for BWA systems that incorporates a traffic scheduling mechanism based on messages and/or stations priorities. An analytical model to evaluate the performance of the proposed protocol is also developed and results obtained for the messages waiting times of different traffic classes are presented.

This paper presents MODENA, an architecture for scientific models management using Computational Grid platform. This architecture is comprised of two systems: ModManager and ModRunner. ModManager deals with knowledge management about scientific models, acting as a scientific models library allowing for cataloguing, searching, reutilization and generation of new models. To achieve this, a metamodel is proposed to classify models, in order to support the organization, searching and retrieving of models. ModRunner manages the execution of models in a Grid environment allowing for model composition to generate a scientific Grid Workflow to be executed by distributed services offered by Grid Services. An initial prototype of ModManager is presented.

We present the WebComposer tool for the automatic composition and execution of Web service-based workflows. We use ontologies to describe and browse workflows. We associate messages and operations with workflow domain concepts using WSDL extensibility. The automatic workflow implementation through WebComposer enables the full separation of the workflow logic and the implementation technology. WebComposer provides the execution of ad-hoc programs by users and the automatic maintenance of these programs, as the available Web services are altered.

The semantic Web technology and the Web services description language extensibility may be combined to describe services in an unambiguous and machine interpretable way, automating Web services discovery, selection and invocation. In this paper, we present an algorithm and a prototype for the automatic composition of Web services that implement workflows described in a high level language. Our approach has many advantages comparing to the manual creation of a simple program composition, such as smaller implementation time and cost, reliability with the generation of contingency plans, greater capacity to evolve with the dynamic service discovery, and faster execution time with the use of heuristics. We use the OWLS ontology to semantically describe Web services metadata and indexes to help selecting them. The proposed algorithm considers that equivalent services may have different interfaces and also respects preferences of the users.

The paper presents a comparison between two unsupervised neural network models: (i) the well-known fuzzy ART, and (ii) AUTOWISARD, a new unsupervised version of the classic WISARD weightless neural network model. It is shown that AUTOWISARD is simple, fast and stable, whilst keeping compatibility with the original WISARD architecture. Experimental test results over binary patterns benchmarks have shown that, although both unsupervised learning models are remarkably simple, AUTOWISARD consistently exhibits better classification skills than fuzzy ART. It is also shown that such superiority happens thanks to AU-TOWISARD's richer internal representation of the trained patterns and the training methods employed by the algorithm, such as the learning window and partial training strategies.
