With the vast amount of immunological data available, immunology research is entering the big data era. These data vary in granularity, quality, and complexity and are stored in various formats, including publications, technical reports, and databases. The challenge is to make the transition from data to actionable knowledge and wisdom and bridge the knowledge gap and application gap. We report...

Many databases in life sciences have been provided in Resource Description Framework (RDF) with their SPARQL endpoints. To support a user in constructing SPARQL queries, we developed a service called SPARQL Builder. Although SPARQL Builder makes a user write a query for obtaining data from LOD, empty results or incorrect data might be retrieved by the query if the SPARQL endpoint for the query ...

This paper describes a natural language-based CASE tool called CM-Builder which aims at supporting the Analysis stage of software development in an Object-Oriented framework. CM-Builder uses robust Natural Language Processing techniques to analyse software requirements texts written in English and build an integrated discourse model of the processed text, represented in a Semantic Network. This...

Consider a game played on the edge set of the infinite clique by two players, Builder and Painter. In each round, Builder chooses an edge and Painter colours it red or blue. Builder wins by creating either a red copy of G or a blue copy of H for some fixed graphs G and H. The minimum number of rounds within which Builder can win, assuming both players play perfectly, is the on-line Ramsey numbe...

Consensus Builder is a vision for an internet application that can organize and facilitate political discussion involving large numbers of participants. Consensus Builder will invite people to speak about what they know and care about. To fully participate, speakers will need to engage in interpretive processes that yield ontological models of statements like those used for the Semantic Web. An...

We introduce CD++Builder, an open-source environment that aims at providing easy-to-use graphical modeling tools to simplify the construction of models and the execution of simulations of complex Discrete Event System Specification (DEVS) models. The architecture and implementation of CD++ Builder focuses on providing simple definition and reuse of components, offering easy extensibility to sup...
