The Web is overcrowded with news articles, an overwhelming information source both with its amount and diversity. Assigning news articles to similar groups, on the other hand, provides a very powerful data mining and manipulation technique for topic discovery from text documents. In this paper, we are investigating the application of a great spectrum of clustering algorithms, as well as similarity measures, to news articles that originate from the Web and compare their efficiency for use in an online Web news service application. We also examine the effect of preprocessing on clustering. Our experimentation showed that k-means, despite its simplicity, accompanied with preliminary steps for data cleaning and normalizing, gives better aggregate results when it comes to efficiency.
In transparent and translucent wavelength routed optical networks the signal quality degrades due to physical layer impairments while the interference among lightpaths implies that routing decisions for one lightpath ...

In this work, we present a concrete framework, based on web services-oriented architecture, for integrating small programmable objects in the web of things. Functionality and data gathered by the Small Programmable Objects (SPO) are exposed using Web Services. Based on this, by exploiting XML encoding, SPO can be comprehensible by any web application. The architecture proposed is focused in providing secure and efficient interoperability between SPO and the web. Additionally, the proposed architecture provides management capabilities for deploying, maintaining and operating SPO applications across multiple networks. We present the multilayer architecture of our system and its implementation, which uses a combination of Java Standard and Micro Editions. Finally, we present a case study presenting our implementation. In this application we use SunSPOTs, which are wireless network motes developed by Sun Microsystems.

Mobile ad hoc networks rely on node cooperation to perform and support basic functions like packet forwarding, routing and network management. In general, nodes' misbehaviour can significantly degrade the performance of the network. Cooperation enforcement schemes are seen as a lightweight alternative to conventional security techniques, providing a "softer" security layer to protect basic networking operations. The aim of this paper is to survey representative cooperation enforcement schemes exploiting a reputation system proposed in related research literature. Their distinct features are analyzed and their relative merits and weaknesses are discussed.

In this paper, we describe a power management mechanism for wireless video transmission using the TFRC protocol that takes into account feedback about the received video quality and tries to intelligently adapt transmitting power accordingly. The purpose of the mechanism is to utilize TFRC feedback and thus achieve a beneficial balance between the power consumption and the received video quality. We use simulation in order to compare and evaluate our approach.
