From SHIQ and RDF to OWL: The Making of a Web Ontology Language

by Ian Horrocks, Peter F. Patel-Schneider, Frank Van Harmelen - Journal of Web Semantics , 2003
"... The OWL Web Ontology Language is a new formal language for representing ontologies in the Semantic Web. OWL has features from several families of representation languages, including primarily Description Logics and frames. OWL also shares many characteristics with RDF, the W3C base of the Semantic W ..."

Ecology of the family as a context for human development: Research perspectives.

by Urie Bronfenbrenner , Josephine Arastah , Mavis Hetherington , Richard Lerner , Jeylan T Mortimer , Joseph H Pleck , Lea Pulkinnen , Michael Rutter , Klaus Schneewind , Diana Slaughter - Developmental Psychology, , 1986
"... This review collates and examines critically a theoretically convergent but widely dispersed body of research on the influence of external environments on the functioning of families as contexts of human development. Investigations falling within this expanding domain include studies of the interac ..."

General methods for monitoring convergence of iterative simulations

by Stephen P. Brooksand, Andrew Gelman - J. Comput. Graph. Statist , 1998
"... We generalize the method proposed by Gelman and Rubin (1992a) for monitoring the convergence of iterative simulations by comparing between and within variances of multiple chains, in order to obtain a family of tests for convergence. We review methods of inference from simulations in order to develo ..."

Homological Algebra of Mirror Symmetry

by Maxim Kontsevich - in Proceedings of the International Congress of Mathematicians , 1994
"... Mirror Symmetry was discovered several years ago in string theory as a duality between families of 3-dimensional Calabi-Yau manifolds (more precisely, complex algebraic manifolds possessing holomorphic volume elements without zeroes). The name comes from the symmetry among Hodge numbers. For dual Ca ..."

Reliable Communication in the Presence of Failures

by Kenneth P. Birman, Thomas A. Joseph - ACM Transactions on Computer Systems , 1987
"... The design and correctness of a communication facility for a distributed computer system are reported on. The facility provides support for fault-tolerant process groups in the form of a family of reliable multicast protocols that can be used in both local- and wide-area networks. These protocols at ..."

A theory for multiresolution signal decomposition : the wavelet representation

by G. Mallat - IEEE Transaction on Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence , 1989
"... Abstract-Multiresolution representations are very effective for analyzing the information content of images. We study the properties of the operator which approximates a signal at a given resolution. We show that the difference of information between the approximation of a signal at the resolutions ..."

2 ’ + ’ and 2jcan be extracted by decomposing this signal on a wavelet orthonormal basis of L*(R”). In LL(R), a wavelet orthonormal basis is a family of functions ( @ w (2’ ~-n)),,,“jEZt, which is built by dilating and translating a unique function t+r (xl. This decomposition defines an orthogonal

Consistent hashing and random trees: Distributed caching protocols for relieving hot spots on the World Wide Web

by David Karger, Eric Lehman, Tom Leighton, Matthew Levine, Daniel Lewin, Rina Panigrahy - IN PROC. 29TH ACM SYMPOSIUM ON THEORY OF COMPUTING (STOC , 1997
"... We describe a family of caching protocols for distrib-uted networks that can be used to decrease or eliminate the occurrence of hot spots in the network. Our protocols are particularly designed for use with very large networks such as the Internet, where delays caused by hot spots can be severe, and ..."

Genomic control for association studies

by B. Devlin, Kathryn Roeder , 1999
"... A dense set of single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) covering the genome and an efficient method to assess SNP genotypes are expected to be available in the near future. An outstanding question is how to use these technologies efficiently to identify genes affecting liability to complex disorders. ..."

. To achieve this goal, we propose a statistical method that has several optimal properties: It can be used with casecontrol data and yet, like family-based designs, controls for population heterogeneity; it is insensitive to the usual violations of model assumptions, such as cases failing to be strictly

Subspecies in Severe Familial Hypercholesterolemia:

"... Background: Oxidative modification of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) plays a key role in the pathophysiology of atherosclerosis. LDL-apheresis, which involves direct removal of plasma LDL from circulating blood, is an efficient treatment of homozygous familial hypercholes-terolemia (FH). Methods: We ..."
