Cloud computing is a technology that uses the internet and central remote servers to keep up data and applications. As becomes more mature, many organizations and individuals are attracted in storing more accessible data e.g. personal data files, company related information in the cloud. This technology allows for much more efficient computing by centralizing storage, memory, processing and ban...

We introduce lemonUby, a new lexical resource integrated in the Semantic Web which is the result of converting data extracted from the existing large-scale linked lexical resource UBY to the lemon lexicon model. The following data from UBY were converted: WordNet, FrameNet, VerbNet, English and German Wiktionary, the English and German entries of OmegaWiki, as well as links between pairs of the...

What makes a good consistency ? Depending on the constraint, it may be a good pruning power or a low computational cost. By “weakening” arc-consistency, we propose to define new automatically generated solvers which form a sequence of consistencies weaker than arc-consistency. The method presented in this paper exploits a form of regularity in the cloud of constraint solutions: the density of s...

News monitoring is of interest to detect current news and track developing stories, but also to explore what is being talked about. In this article, we present an approach to monitoring live feeds of news articles and detecting significant (co-)occurrences of terms compared to a learning background corpus. We visualize the result as a graph-structured semantic word cloud that uses a stochastic ...

The present study describes recent developments of Chinese Wordnet, which has been reformatted using the lemon model and published as part of the Linguistic Linked Open Data Cloud. While lemon suffices for modeling most of the structures in Chinese Wordnet at the lexical level, the model does not allow for finergrained distinction of a word sense, or meaning facets, a linguistic feature also at...

Cloud-based services are an attractive deployment model for user-facing applications like word processing and calendaring. Unlike desktop applications, cloud services allow multiple users to edit shared state concurrently and in real-time, while being scalable, highly available, and globally accessible. Unfortunately, these benefits come at the cost of fully trusting cloud providers with potent...

Nowadays, the necessity of rendering reliable services to the customers in business markets is assumed as a crucial matter for the service providers, and the importance of this subject in many fields is undeniable. Design of systems with high complexity and existence of different resources in network cloud leads the service providers to intend to provide the best services to their customers. On...
