The data required for automatic optimization of user services usually exists in current systems, but that data is not modelled or linked in a way that facilitates automation. knowledgeengineering is a promising approach for managing the disparate communication service quality management information data sets and the links across those data sets. Once a knowledge base is in place, semantic techniques can be used to analyse and suggest optimizations to service quality. This paper describes our work in building, populating and evaluating a knowledge base for an IPTV service in Home Area Networks. Population of the knowledge base was implemented using terminal reports. The characteristics of the approach were evaluated through experimentation and the evaluation results are presented in this paper.

A key challenge facing curators and providers of digital cultural heritage across Europe and Worldwide is to instigate, increase and enhance engagement with cultural archives. To achieve this, a fundamental change in the way cultural resources are experienced and contributed to by communities is required. Furthermore, it is of central importance to create systems which can support the full spectrum of the user community - from professional researchers engaged in answering complex queries, to supporting novice students or members of the public in finding their way through the vast collection of resources. This paper presents CULTURA, a personalisation environment for navigating digitised cultural heritage archives. An initial description of a case study surrounding the 1641 Depositions Archive is followed by an analysis of the results of trials with students in the humanities.

An ontology-based approach to deal with data and management procedure integration in home-based scenarios is presented in this paper. The proposed ontology not only provides a means to represent exchanged data but also to unify the way of accessing, controlling, evaluating and transferring information remotely. The structure of this ontology has been inspired by the autonomic computing paradigm, thus it describes the tasks that comprise the MAPE (Monitor, Analyze, Plan and Execute) process. Furthermore the use of SPARQL (Simple Protocol and RDF Query Language) is proposed in this paper to express conditions and rules that determine the performance of these tasks according to each situation. Finally two practical application cases of the proposed ontology-based approach are presented.

After having been a term of reflection in philosophy as well as psychology for ages, the fascination with human wisdom finally reaches the realms of computer science. In comparison to the first philosophical definition attempts, that date back to Aristotle (384BC-322BC), the efforts in information science during the late 1980s seem quite recent. Nevertheless have there been astonishing new insights provided by cognitive science since those first formal modelizations were designed - findings that strongly suggest a reconsideration of our current formalization of wisdom in the computer science domain. We suggest to establish a new, integrated view on the concept of wisdom, using the insights of cognitive sciences. Furthermore, we discuss possible measures that are able to cover at least fundamental properties of wisdom including its vague aspects.
