Saint: a lightweight integration environment for model annotation

UNLABELLED Saint is a web application which provides a lightweight annotation integration environment for quantitative biological models. The system enables modellers to rapidly mark up models with biological information derived from a range of data sources. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION Saint is freely available for use on the web at http://www.cisban.ac.uk/saint. The web application is im...

Using a Lightweight Multimedia Content Model for Semantic annotation

In this paper we discuss the use of a multimedia content model for automatic extraction of semantic metadata from multimedia content. We developed a modular and extensible framework to model the content feature of multimedia data and also describe the way it can be integrated with other existing vocabularies. The goal of this model is to generate sufficient understanding of media content, its c...

Data Lineage Model for Taverna Workflows with Lightweight Annotation Requirements

The provenance, or lineage, of a workflow data product can be reconstructed by keeping a complete trace of one workflow execution. This lineage information, however, is likely to be both imprecise, because of the black-box nature of the services that compose the workflow, and noisy, because of the many trivial data transformations that obscure the intended purpose of the workflow. In this paper...

Comparison of two integration schemes for a micropolar plasticity model

Micropolar plasticity provides the capability to carry out post-failure simulations of geo-structures due to microstructural considerations and embedded length scale in its formulation. An essential part of the numerical implementation of a micropolar plasticity model is the integration of the rate constitutive equations. Efficiency and robustness of the implementation hinge on the type of int...
