This document shows a preliminary framework for editing networked ontologies in the context of the NeOn project. The goal is to manage, in a collaborative way, multiple networked ontologies for large-scale semantic applications. This paper shows the main concepts on the editorial workflow and several lifecycle use cases. The ontologies produced with this framework will be used by the Food and A...

Offices have long been networked, but the home is becoming an increasingly electronic and networked place. As the public demands (and governments mandate) an energy-efficient home, and everything from TVs to printers and refrigerators becomes networked, the energy consumption of these devices becomes critical. Most of these networked edge devices spend the majority of their time idle, but still...

With the continuing trend towards globalization and focusing on high value with low volume, the manufacturing system architecture is evolving from traditional centralised model to the distributed model and to the recent networked model. In the modern manufacturing environment, the manufacturing systems are in networked framework via a variety of networking communication systems integrating the ...

Aim at the current status of automatic test system that focuses only on a single or the same type of weapons' performance testing, a networked automatic test system based on message-oriented middleware is proposed in this paper, and inner architecture and process of pus/sub in message-oriented middleware are described. Basing on the message-oriented middleware, the networked automatic test syst...

For distributed systems, i.e. large networked complex systems, there is a drastic diierence between a local view and knowledge of the system, and its global view. Distributed systems have local state and time, but do not possess global state and time in the usual sense. In this paper, motivated by the monitoring of distributed systems and in particular of telecommunications networks, we develop...
