Querying for meta knowledge
(2008)
The Semantic Web is based on accessing and reusing RDF data from many different sources, which one may assign different levels of authority and credibility. Existing Semantic Web query languages, like SPARQL, have targeted the retrieval, combination and reuse of facts, but have so far ignored all aspects of meta knowledge, such as origins, authorship, recency or certainty of data, to name but a few. In this paper, we present an original, generic, formalized and implemented approach for managing many dimensions of meta knowledge, like source, authorship, certainty and others. The approach re-uses existing RDF modeling possibilities in order to represent meta knowledge. Then, it extends SPARQL query processing in such a way that given a SPARQL query for data, one may request meta knowledge without modifying the query proper. Thus, our approach achieves highly flexible and automatically coordinated querying for data and meta knowledge, while completely separating the two areas of concern.
Geographisches Cluster-basiertes Routing ist ein aktueller Ansatz, wenn es um das Entwicklen von effizienten Routingalgorithmen für drahtlose ad-hoc Netzwerke geht. Es gibt bereits eine Anzahl an Algorithmen, die Nachrichten nur auf Basis von Positionsinformationen durch ein drahtloses ad-hoc Netzwerk routen können. Darunter befinden sich sowohl Algorithmen, die auf das klassische Beaconing setzen, als auch Algorithmen, die beaconlos arbeiten (keine Informationen über die Umgebung werden benötigt, außer der eigenen Position und der Position des Ziels). Geographisches Routing mit Auslieferungsgarantie kann auch auf Overlay-Graphen durchgeführt werden. Bisher werden die dafür benötigten Overlay-Graphen nicht reaktiv konstruiert.
In dieser Arbeit wird ein reaktiver Algorithmus, der Beaconless Cluster Based Planarization Algorithmus (BCBP), für die Konstruktion eines planaren Overlay-Graphen vorgestellt, der die benötigte Anzahl an Nachrichten für die Konstruktion eines planaren Overlay-Graphen, und demzufolge auch Cluster-basiertes geographishes Routing, deutlich reduziert. Basierend auf einem Algorithmus für Cluster-basierte Planarisierung, konstruiert er beaconlos einen planaren Overlay-Graphen in einem unit disk graph (UDG). Ein UDG ist ein Modell für ein drahtloses Netzwerk, bei dem alle Teilnehmer den gleichen Senderadius haben.
Die Evaluierung des Algorithmus zeigt, dass er wesentlich effizienter ist als die Baecon-basierte Variante. Ein weiteres Ergebnis dieser Arbeit ist ein weiterer beaconloser Algorithmus (Beaconless LLRAP (BLLRAP)), für\r\nden zwar die Planarität, aber nicht die Konnektivität nachgewiesen werden konnte.
Die Diffusionsbildgebung misst die Bewegung von Wassermolekülen in Gewebe mittelsrnvariierender Gradientenfelder unter Verwendung der Magnetresonanztomographie(MRT). Diese Aufnahmetechnik stellt eine große Chance für in vivo Untersuchung von neuronalen Bahnen dar, da das lokale Diffusionsprofil Rückschlüsse über die Position und Richtung von Nervenbahnen erlaubt. Zu den Anwendungsgebieten der Diffusionsbildgebung zählt die Grundlagenforschung in den Neurowissenschaften, in denen Nervenbahnen als Verbindungen kortikaler Areale bestimmt werden, und die neurochirurgische Operationsplanung, in der rekonstruierte Bahnen als Risikostrukturen für Interventionen angesehen werden.
Die Diffusionstensor-MRT (DT-MRT) ist aufgrund ihrer schnellen Aufnahme- und Rekonstruktionsgeschwindigkeit derzeitig klinischer Standard zur Bestimmung von Nervenbahnen. Jedoch erlaubt die DT-MRT nicht die Darstellung von komplexen intravoxel Diffusionsverteilungen. Daher etablierte sich eine weitere Modellierungstechnik, die als High Angular Resolution Diffusion Imaging (HARDI) bekannt ist. HARDITechniken erhielten wachsendes Interesse in den Neurowissenschaften, da sie großes Potential zur exakteren Darstellung der Nervenbahnen im menschlichen Gehirn besitzen.
Um die Vorteile von HARDI-Techniken gegenüber DT-MRT voll auszuschöpfen, werden fortgeschrittene Methoden zur Rekonstruktion und Visualisierung der Bahnen benötigt. In der vorliegenden Arbeit werden neue Techniken vorgestellt, welche zur aktuellen Forschung hinsichtlich der Verarbeitung und Visualisierung von Diffusionsbildgebungsdaten beitragen. Ansätze zur Klassifizierung, Traktographie und Visualisierung wurden entwickelt um eine aussagekräftige Exploration neuronaler Bahnen und deren Beschaffenheit zu ermöglichen. Des Weiteren wurde eine interaktive Software für die neurochirurgische Operationsplanung implementiert, welche Nervenbahnen als Risikostrukturen berücksichtigt.
Die vorgestellten Forschungsergebnisse bieten einen erweiterten und aufgabenorientierten Einblick in neuronale Verbindungen sowohl für Neurowissenschaftler als auch für Neurochirurgen und tragen zum Einsatz von HARDI-Techniken in einer klinischen Umgebung bei.

Die hohen Infrastrukturkosten machen das Überprüfen von Theorien bezüglich großer Rechnernetze zu einer schwierigen und teuren Aufgabe. Ein möglicher Ansatz dieses Problem zu beheben ist die Verwendung von virtueller anstelle von physikalischer Infrastrukur. OPNets IT Guru ist ein Programm, das entworfen wurde zur Simulation großer Netze und zur Repräsentation relevanter Informationen. Es gestattet großflächige Änderungen zu testen oder Theorien zu überpruefen ohne den Aufwand einer physikalischen Infrastruktur.
The E-KRHyper system is a model generator and theorem prover for first-order logic with equality. It implements the new E-hyper tableau calculus, which integrates a superposition-based handling of equality into the hyper tableau calculus. E-KRHyper extends our previous KRHyper system, which has been used in a number of applications in the field of knowledge representation. In contrast to most first order theorem provers, it supports features important for such applications, for example queries with predicate extensions as answers, handling of large sets of uniformly structured input facts, arithmetic evaluation and stratified negation as failure. It is our goal to extend the range of application possibilities of KRHyper by adding equality reasoning.
Generalized methods for automated theorem proving can be used to compute formula transformations such as projection elimination and knowledge compilation. We present a framework based on clausal tableaux suited for such tasks. These tableaux are characterized independently of particular construction methods, but important features of empirically successful methods are taken into account, especially dependency directed backjumping and branch local operation. As an instance of that framework an adaption of DPLL is described. We show that knowledge compilation methods can be essentially improved by weaving projection elimination partially into the compilation phase.
This volume contains those research papers presented at the Second International Conference on Tests and Proofs (TAP 2008) that were not included in the main conference proceedings. TAP was the second conference devoted to the convergence of proofs and tests. It combines ideas from both areas for the advancement of software quality. To prove the correctness of a program is to demonstrate, through impeccable mathematical techniques, that it has no bugs; to test a program is to run it with the expectation of discovering bugs. On the surface, the two techniques seem contradictory: if you have proved your program, it is fruitless to comb it for bugs; and if you are testing it, that is surely a sign that you have given up on any hope of proving its correctness. Accordingly, proofs and tests have, since the onset of software engineering research, been pursued by distinct communities using rather different techniques and tools. And yet the development of both approaches leads to the discovery of common issues and to the realization that each may need the other. The emergence of model checking has been one of the first signs that contradiction may yield to complementarity, but in the past few years an increasing number of research efforts have encountered the need for combining proofs and tests, dropping earlier dogmatic views of their incompatibility and taking instead the best of what each of these software engineering domains has to offer. The first TAP conference (held at ETH Zurich in February 2007) was an attempt to provide a forum for the cross-fertilization of ideas and approaches from the testing and proving communities. For the 2008 edition we found the Monash University Prato Centre near Florence to be an ideal place providing a stimulating environment. We wish to sincerely thank all the authors who submitted their work for consideration. And we would like to thank the Program Committee members as well as additional referees for their great effort and professional work in the review and selection process. Their names are listed on the following pages. In addition to the contributed papers, the program included three excellent keynote talks. We are grateful to Michael Hennell (LDRA Ltd., Cheshire, UK), Orna Kupferman (Hebrew University, Israel), and Elaine Weyuker (AT&T Labs Inc., USA) for accepting the invitation to address the conference. Two very interesting tutorials were part of TAP 2008: "Parameterized Unit Testing with Pex" (J. de Halleux, N. Tillmann) and "Integrating Verification and Testing of Object-Oriented Software" (C. Engel, C. Gladisch, V. Klebanov, and P. Rümmer). We would like to express our thanks to the tutorial presenters for their contribution. It was a team effort that made the conference so successful. We are grateful to the Conference Chair and the Steering Committee members for their support. And we particularly thank Christoph Gladisch, Beate Körner, and Philipp Rümmer for their hard work and help in making the conference a success. In addition, we gratefully acknowledge the generous support of Microsoft Research Redmond, who financed an invited speaker.
The model evolution calculus
(2004)
The DPLL procedure is the basis of some of the most successful propositional satisfiability solvers to date. Although originally devised as a proof procedure for first-order logic, it has been used almost exclusively for propositional logic so far because of its highly inefficient treatment of quantifiers, based on instantiation into ground formulas. The recent FDPLL calculus by Baumgartner was the first successful attempt to lift the procedure to the first-order level without resorting to ground instantiations. FDPLL lifts to the first-order case the core of the DPLL procedure, the splitting rule, but ignores other aspects of the procedure that, although not necessary for completeness, are crucial for its effectiveness in practice. In this paper, we present a new calculus loosely based on FDPLL that lifts these aspects as well. In addition to being a more faithful litfing of the DPLL procedure, the new calculus contains a more systematic treatment of universal literals, one of FDPLL's optimizations, and so has the potential of leading to much faster implementations.
Dualizing marked Petri nets results in tokens for transitions (t-tokens). A marked transition can strictly not be enabled, even if there are sufficient "enabling" tokens (p-tokens) on its input places. On the other hand, t-tokens can be moved by the firing of places. This permits flows of t-tokens which describe sequences of non-events. Their benefiit to simulation is the possibility to model (and observe) causes and effects of non-events, e.g. if something is broken down.
Towards Improving the Understanding of Image Semantics by Gaze-based Tag-to-Region Assignments
(2011)
Eye-trackers have been used in the past to identify visual foci in images, find task-related image regions, or localize affective regions in images. However, they have not been used for identifying specific objects in images. In this paper, we investigate whether it is possible to assign image regions showing specific objects with tags describing these objects by analyzing the users' gaze paths. To this end, we have conducted an experiment with 20 subjects viewing 50 image-tag-pairs each. We have compared the tag-to-region assignments for nine existing and four new fixation measures. In addition, we have investigated the impact of extending region boundaries, weighting small image regions, and the number of subjects viewing the images. The paper shows that a tag-to-region assignment with an accuracy of 67% can be achieved by using gaze information. In addition, we show that multiple regions on the same image can be differentiated with an accuracy of 38%.
UML models and OWL ontologies constitute modeling approaches with different strength and weaknesses that make them appropriate for use of specifying different aspects of software systems. In particular, OWL ontologies are well suited to specify classes using an expressive logical language with highly flexible, dynamic and polymorphic class membership, while UML diagrams are much more suitable for specifying not only static models including classes and associations, but also dynamic behavior. Though MOF based metamodels and UML profiles for OWL have been proposed in the past, an integrated use of both modeling approaches in a coherent framework has been lacking so far. We present such a framework, TwoUse, for developing integrated models, comprising the benefits of UML models and OWL ontologies
Hybrid systems are the result of merging the two most commonly used models for dynamical systems, namely continuous dynamical systems defined by differential equations and discrete-event systems defined by automata. One can view hybrid systems as constrained systems, where the constraints describe the possible process flows, invariants within states, and transitions on the one hand, and to characterize certain parts of the state space (e.g. the set of initial states, or the set of unsafe states) on the other hand. Therefore, it is advantageous to use constraint logic programming (CLP) as an approach to model hybrid systems. In this paper, we provide CLP implementations, that model hybrid systems comprising several concurrent hybrid automata, whose size is only straight proportional to the size of the given system description. Furthermore, we allow different levels of abstraction by making use of hierarchies as in UML statecharts. In consequence, the CLP model can be used for analyzing and testing the absence or existence of (un)wanted behaviors in hybrid systems. Thus in summary, we get a procedure for the formal verification of hybrid systems by model checking, employing logic programming with constraints.
Die Entwicklung von Algorithmen im Sinne des Algorithm Engineering geschieht zyklisch. Der entworfene Algorithmus wird theoretisch analysiert und anschließend implementiert. Nach der praktischen Evaluierung wird der Entwurf anhand der gewonnenen Kenntnisse weiter entwickelt. Formale Verifffizierung der Implementation neben der praktischen Evaluierung kann den Entwicklungsprozess verbessern. Mit der Java Modeling Language (JML) und dem KeY tool stehen eine einfache Spezififfkationssprache und ein benutzerfreundliches, automatisiertes Verififfkationstool zur Verfügung. Diese Arbeit untersucht, inwieweit das KeY tool für die Verifffizierung von komplexeren Algorithmen geeignet ist und welche Rückmeldungen für Algorithmiker aus der Verififfkation gewonnen werden können.Die Untersuchung geschieht anhand von Dijkstras Algorithmus zur Berechnung von kürzesten Wegen in einem Graphen. Es sollen eine konkrete Implementation des Standard-Algorithmus und anschließend Implementationen weiterer Varianten verifffiziert werden. Dies ahmt den Entwicklungsprozess des Algorithmus nach, um in jeder Iteration nach möglichen Rückmeldungen zu suchen. Bei der Verifffizierung der konkreten Implementation merken wir, dass es nötig ist, zuerst eine abstraktere Implementation mit einfacheren Datenstrukturen zu verififfzieren. Mit den dort gewonnenen Kenntnissen können wir dann die Verifikation der konkreten Implementation fortführen. Auch die Varianten des Algorithmus können dank der vorangehenden Verififfkationen verifiziert werden. Die Komplexität von Dijkstras Algorithmus bereitet dem KeY tool einige Schwierigkeiten bezüglich der Performanz, weswegen wir während der Verifizierung die Automatisierung etwas reduzieren müssen. Auf der anderenrn Seite zeigt sich, dass sich aus der Verifffikation einige Rückmeldungen ableiten lassen.
