During plant-transpiration, water molecules having the lighter stable isotopes of oxygen and hydrogen evaporate and diffuse at a faster rate through the stomata than molecules having the heavier isotopes, which cause isotopic enrichment of leaf water. Although previous models have assumed that leaf water is well-mixed and isotopically uniform, non-uniform stomatal closure, promoting different e...

C. X. Li, H. Li, H. Lu, W. W. Mao: State key laboratory of advanced Metallurgy, University of Science and Technology Beijing, China This work examined phosphorus enrichment in different micro areas of the earlier slag and the final slag in converter double-slag technology. The results show that: phosphorus has high enrichment in the micro-area the basictity of which is between 2 to 2,5; the pho...

In semi-structured information systems, generally, the adaptation of documents is essential to give the user the feeling that the query result is adapted to his need. The user’s needs can be defined in a user profile. But, in the literature the adaptation systems are designed for a particular domain and are oriented towards either navigation adaptation or content adaptation. Adaptation takes pl...

The Personal Reader1 provides a framework for designing, implementing and maintaining web content readers, which provide personalized enrichment of web content for each individual user. The idea of the the Personal Reader is based on a rigorous approach for applying Semantic Web technologies: A modular framework of components / services for visualizing the Personal Reader and providing the user...

The Semantic Sensor Web (SSW) will eventually revolutionize how we perceive and query information about the physical world. Currently, there is an ongoing effort to develop a searchable web of things that sense and control the world. As this new internet of things expands, there will be an explosion of available raw data that may not always be reachable by users. Bridging this gap between what ...

During live events like conferences or exhibitions, people nowadays share their opinions, mutimedia contents, suggestions, related materials, and reports through social networking platforms, such as Twitter. However, live events also feature inherent complexity, in the sense that they comprise multiple parallel sessions or happenings (e.g., in a conference you have several sessions in different...

This paper explains Linked Television, a concept for interlinked TV and Web content within a shared digital ecosystem under the control of the content owner. An end to end platform is being developed to ingest, analyse and annotate TV programmes, and generate links to related Web content from the TV programme itself. We focus on a highly automated system available as a Web service to help lower...
