The Open Data movement has gained momentum among governments, in the business world, and in the public sector in recent years. This movement has resulted in a growing number of open and accessible datasets that have established a solid basis for enhanced service offerings and improved experiences for citizens and businesses. Statistical data, which embodies a big portion of Open Data, comprises a wide range of domains including finance, demographics, transportation, employment, etc. Statistical data plays an important role in public policy formation and as a facilitator for informed decision-making in the private sector. Linked Statistical Data is an evolving concept that combines the richness of Linked Data (a set of best practices for publishing and connecting structured data on the Web) with the descriptiveness of statistical data to integrate data from multiple sources and put it in a semantic context. In this short paper, Linked Statistical Data limitations and challenges are explored before introducing Linked Widgets as an innovative approach. Copyright 2014 ACM.
Semantic Web and Linked Data are widely considered as effective and powerful technologies for integrating heterogeneous data models and data sources. However, there is still a gap between promising research results an...

The original REA accounting model (McCarthy, 1982) has been extended in previous years into a business modeling language. Apart from its conceptual model, academic effort has been put into the definition of a formal description language, based on standards such as UML or OWL. The specification of a generic data model from a software engineering point of view for domain independent use of REA for business model specification and execution has been touched only briefly in the past. Thus, we present a data model concept for runtime-configurable REA business model definition and execution.
Today, business processes are modeled without taking into deeper consideration the context of the business environment where they will be later executed. As a consequence, initiation, management, and delayed adjustmen...

Sharing research data is becoming increasingly important as it enables peers to validate and reproduce data driven experiments. Also exchanging data allows scientists to reuse data in different contexts and gather new knowledge from available sources. But with increasing volume of data, researchers need to reference exact versions of datasets. Until now access to research data often based on single archives of data files where versioning and subsetting support is limited. In this paper we introduce a mechanism that allows researchers to create versioned subsets of research data which can be cited and shared in a lightweight manner. We demonstrate a prototype that supports researchers in creating subsets based on filtering and sorting source data. These subsets can be cited for later reference and reuse. The system produces evidence that allows users to verify the correctness and completeness of a subset based on cryptographic hashing. We describe a replication scenario for enabling scalable data citation in dynamic contexts.
The discordance of the available Building Performance Evaluation Tools with the capabilities and expectations of the design community and complexities related to data availability and accessibility are among the most ...

Machine-readable datasets that have increasingly become available in open formats in recent years have great potential as a foundation for innovative applications and services. Linked Data in particular-a set of best practices for publishing and connecting structured data on the Web-has facilitated significant progress in evolving the Web of documents into a Web of Data. However, although this concept has opened up many opportunities for data sharing and collaboration, integrating data is still a challenging task that requires considerable technical expertise and a profound understanding of the underlying datasets. In this paper, we introduce a novel approach to provide knowledge workers with the necessary tools to leverage the fast growing Linked Data Cloud by creating semantic-aware dataflow processes. To this end, we introduce the “Linked Widget” concept as an enhancement of standard Web Widgets. These widgets are based on a semantic data model that facilitates powerful mechanisms for gathering, processing, integration, and visualization of data in a user-friendly Mashup environment. By allowing knowledge workers to easily create complex Linked Data applications in an adhoc manner, our approach should contribute towards reducing existing barriers of Linked Data adoption.
This work presents a method to determine rotor oscillations during a three-phased sudden short-circuit test of a synchronous generator. To our best current knowledge, no such similar method is yet published in the tec...
