Rendering symbolic music notation is a common component of many MIR applications, and many tools are available for this task. There is, however, a need for a tool that can natively render the Music Encoding Initiative (MEI) notation encodings that are increasingly used in music research projects. In this paper, we present Verovio, a library and toolkit for rendering MEI. A significant advantage...

We investigate if and how open source retrieval engines can be deployed in a grid environment. When comparing grids to conventional distributed IR, the lack of a-priori knowledge about available nodes is one of the most significant differences. On top of that, it is also unknown when a particular node has time and resources available and starts a submitted job. Therefore, conventional methods s...

We introduce an inquisitive semantics for a language of propositional logic, where the interpretation of disjunction is the source of inquisitiveness. Indicative conditionals and conditional questions are treated on a par both syntactically and semantically. The semantics comes with a new logical-pragmatical notion which judges and compares the compliance of responses to an initiative in inquis...

the lut block (eastern iran) extends over 900 km in a north-south direction and is only 200 km wide in an east-west direction. it is confined by the nayband fault and shotori range on the west. the eastern edge is bordered by the sistan suture zone and nehbandan fault. the northern termination of lut block is the depression of kavir-e-namak and the great kavir fault. the makran arc, including t...

Rooted in the recognition that emerging infectious diseases occur at the interface of human, animal, and ecosystem health, the Southern African Centre for Infectious Disease Surveillance (SACIDS) initiative aims to promote a trans-sectoral approach to address better infectious disease risk management in five countries of the Southern African Development Community. Nine years after SACIDS' incep...

We describe the usefulness of Wiktionary, the freely available web-based lexical resource, in providing multilingual extensions to catalogues that serve content-based indexing of folktales and related narratives. We develop conversion tools between Wiktionary and TEI, using ISO standards (LMF, MAF), to make such resources available to both the Digital Humanities community and the Language Resou...

This paper discusses the SCORE data format, a graphically oriented music representation developed in the early 1970’s, and how such a representation can be converted into sequential descriptions of music notation. The graphical representation system for the SCORE editor is presented along with case studies for parsing and converting the data into other symbolic music formats such as Dox, Humdru...

the study discusses the traditional and online procedures and outlines of sdi service. the paper has also taken an initiative to formulate an exact matching technique between user’s subject interest and document profile with exploration along with electronic delivery of voluminous information technique. it also discusses some standard features and model of user profile. finally, the paper explo...
