The Windows Registry often contains key data that help determine the activities performed on a computer. While some forensic tools format Registry data for common questions that are required to be answered in digital investigations, their output is geared for standalone use, not for indexable content. This paper describes RegXML, an XML syntax designed to represent Windows Registry hive files. ...

Bee Colony (Karaboga, 2005). In this part we will describe a specialization of our model (Navrat, 2006A) to optimisation of mathematical functions. This model is very general and does not define the behaviour of the bee outside the hive. It means that before applying the model to specific problems this behaviour has to be defined. This generality brings an opportunity to fine-tune the behaviour...

This article presents benchmarking results of two benchmarking sets (run on small clusters of 6 and 9 nodes) applied to Hive and Pig running on Hadoop 0.14.1. The first set of results were obtainted by replicating the Apache Pig benchmark published by the Apache Foundation on 11/07/07 (which served as a baseline to compare major Pig Latin releases). The second results were obtained by applying ...

In recognition, discriminators use sensory information to make decisions. For example, honeybee (Apis mellifera) entrance guards discriminate between nest-mates and intruders by comparing their odours with a template of the colony odour. Comb wax plays a major role in honeybee recognition. We measured the rejection rates of nest-mate and non-nest-mate worker bees by entrance guards before and a...

The Scaffolded Sound Beehive is an immersive multi-media installation which provides viewers an artistic visual and audio experience of activities in a beehive. Data were recorded in urban beehives and processed using sophisticated pattern recognition, AI technologies, and sonification and computer graphics software. The installation includes an experiment in using Deep Learning to interpret th...

Eusocial honey bee populations (Apis mellifera) employ an age stratification organization of egg, larvae, pupae, hive bees and foraging bees. Understanding the recent decline in honey bee colonies hinges on understanding the factors that impact each of these different age castes. We first perform an analysis of steady state bee populations given mortality rates within each bee caste and find th...
