Classification of reusable software components is essential to successful software reuse initiatives and a critical feature of library development. This paper provides a survey of storage and retrieval methods and highlights the main characteristics of each class of methods. The work focuses on information retrieval methods with emphasis on Component Rank and Latent Semantic Analysis models tha...

the two terms information and communication have some ambiguities. yet, there is not a consensus on their definitions. but they have some common characteristics, which make them be used interchangeably, information is the basic element for communication. information, inevitably. does net end to communication while when there is communication, there is information 100. communication is the natur...

This paper proposes an identity management system model which will ensure secure storage and retrieval of the IDs information in the scalable identity database. The proposed model uses the distributed database technology for information storage and retrieval to make the system more reliable. The IDs information storage is secured by using cryptography mechanism of data conversion in the identit...

Memory is thought to be sparsely encoded throughout multiple brain regions forming unique memory trace. Although evidence has established that the amygdala is a key brain site for memory storage and retrieval of auditory conditioned fear memory, it remains elusive whether the auditory brain regions may be involved in fear memory storage or retrieval. To investigate this possibility, we systemat...

This article proposes the introduction of emerging technologies based on semantics, combined with multi-agent systems, information retrieval techniques and reasoning processes, to automate and facilitate the processes of identification, extraction, storage and retrieval of personal graduate information associated with an educational institution, oriented to obtain accreditation. Thereby impleme...

In this paper, PANORAMA, an integrated system for digitization, annotation, storage and retrieval of audiovisual data and their associated description is presented. The information model has been heavily influenced by the evolving MPEG-7 standard for description of multimedia content. XML schema has been used for defining the data structures and XML for representation of content – related infor...

As more and more applications in both the commercial and scientific field make routine use of pictorial data, it has become increasingly apparent that the problems involved in organizing image collections for efficient storage and retrieval are far from trivial. Hence interest in research into image content retrieval has grown rapidly over the last few years. The field has provided a rich varie...

Neuroimaging studies of normal subjects and studies of patients with focal lesions implicate regions of parietal cortex in verbal working memory (VWM), yet the precise role of parietal cortex in VWM remains unclear. Some evidence (; ) suggests that the parietal cortex mediates the storage of verbal information, but these studies and most previous ones included encoding and retrieval processes a...

Software components have played an important role in modern software and system development. The main contribution of software components is reuse which helps reduce development cost and time and increase productivity. While libraries of Unified Modeling Language (UML) diagrams do exist, one of the challenges that still remain is to locate suitable diagrams and adapt them to meet the specific r...
