This paper discusses the design of integrity and derivation rules on the basis of Rule Markup Language (RuleML) and Semantic Web Rule Language (SWRL). We propose a general markup framework for integrity and derivation rules (R2ML). Rule concepts are defined with the help of MOF/UML, a subset of the UML class modeling language proposed by the Object Management Group (OMG) for the purpose of ’met...

In this paper we introduce a programming language for Web document processing called WebL. WebL is a high level, object-oriented scripting language that incorporates two novel features: service combinators and a markup algebra. Service combinators are language constructs that provide reliable access to web services by mimicking a web surfer's behavior when a failure occurs while retrieving a pa...

Dictionary markup (encoding) is one of the concerns of TEI (Text Encoding Initiative), an international project for text encoding. In this paper, we investigate ways to use and extend TEI encoding scheme for the markup of Korean dictionary entries. Since TEI suggestions for dictionary markup are mainly for western language dictionaries, we need to cope with problems to be encountered in encodin...

Proprietary approaches for representing annotations and image markup are serious barriers for researchers to share image data and knowledge. The Annotation and Image Markup (AIM) project is developing a standard based information model for image annotation and markup in health care and clinical trial environments. The complex hierarchical structures of AIM data model pose new challenges for man...

The data in this article supports the research paper entitled "Interexaminer variation of minutia markup on latent fingerprints" [1]. The data in this article describes the variability in minutia markup during both analysis of the latents and comparison between latents and exemplars. The data was collected in the "White Box Latent Print Examiner Study," in which each of 170 volunteer latent pri...

Extensible Markup Language documents are composed of sequences of character data and embedded markup, under control of a Document Type Definition. We will show that embedded markup needs to be dealt with at a syntactic level to account for interdependencies between linguistic structure and document structure as found in style guides and Controlled Languages. Furthermore, we discuss the effect o...

Darpa Agent Markup Language (DAML) [7] is the newest effort for Semantic Web [5]. It can be used to create ontologies and markup information resource like web pages. The information resource can be read by human and understood by agent programs. We believed DAML could be used to markup agent communication content and promote knowledge sharing and exchanging between agents. This paper also sugge...

Maintaining the integrity of analytical data over time is a challenge. Years ago, data were recorded on paper that was pasted directly into a laboratory notebook. The digital age has made maintaining the integrity of data harder. Nowadays, digitized analytical data are often separated from information about how the sample was collected and prepared for analysis and how the data were acquired. T...
