In order to evaluate the performance of information retrieval and extraction algorithms, we need test collections. A test collection consists of a set of documents, a clearly form...
This paper presents an approach for building consensus ontologies from the individual ontologies of a network of socially interacting agents. Each agent has its own conceptualizat...
Discrete-event simulation is widely used to analyse and improve the performance of manufacturing systems. The related optimization problem often includes integer design variables ...

In recent years, there has been a dramatic proliferation of research on information retrieval based on highly subjective concepts such as emotion, preference and aesthetic. Such r...
A generic stochastic model with only two input parameters is introduced to evaluate the message delay in mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) where nodes may relay messages. The Laplac...
