Effective Integration

Embracing inapt infrastructure technology is a major threat in developing extensive and efficient Web-based systems. The architectural strength of all business models demands an effective integration of various technological components. And middleware, the center of all applications, becomes the driver—everything works if middleware does. In the recent times, the client/server environment has experienced sweeping transformation and led to the notion of the “Object Web”. Web browser is viewed as a universal client that is capable of shifting flawlessly and effortlessly between various applications over the Net. This paper presents an overview of middleware and the facilitating technologies and point toward the latest developments, taking into account the functional potential of the on-market middleware solutions as well as their technical strengths and weaknesses. The paper classifies and describes various types of middleware technologies such as database middleware, Remote Procedure Call (RPC), application server middleware, message-oriented middleware (MOM), Object Request Broker (ORB), transaction-processing monitors, and Web middleware etc., with on-market technologies.

The architectural strength of all business models demands an effective integration of various technological components. Middleware, the center of all applications, becomes the driver—everything works if middleware does. In the recent times, the client/server environment has experienced sweeping transformation and led to the notion of the “Object Web.” Web browser is viewed as a universal client that is capable of shifting flawlessly and effortlessly between various applications on the Internet. This paper attempts to investigate middleware and the facilitating technologies, and point toward the latest developments, taking into account the functional potential of the on-market middleware solutions, as well as their technical strengths and weaknesses. The paper would describe various types of middleware, including database middleware, Remote Procedure Call (RPC), application server middleware, message-oriented middleware (MOM), Object Request Broker (ORB), transaction-processing monitors and Web middleware, etc., with on-market technologies.

The SWAN platform is an integrated suite of online resources and tools for assessing industrial symbiotic opportunities based on solid industrial waste reuse. It has been developed as a digital solid waste reuse platform and is already applied in four countries (Greece, Bulgaria, Albania and Cyprus). The SWAN platform integrates a database with the spatial and technical characteristics of industrial solid waste producers and potential consumers, populated with data from these countries. It also incorporates an inventory of commercially implemented best practices on solid industrial waste reuse. The role of the SWAN platform is to facilitate the development of novel business cases. Towards this end, decision support services, based on a suitable matching algorithm, are provided to the registered users, helping them to identify and assess potential novel business models, based on solid waste reuse, either for an individual industrial unit (source/potential receiver of solid waste) or a specific region.

The Way

The low business capacity of SMEs is the result of the majority of SMEs (93.33%) still being managed traditionally. The limited capacity of SMEs can be overcome if SMEs are willing and able to change the way their business is managed, which is still traditionally replaced with web-based information technology, which is able to manage business and transaction processing without limits on space and time, such as the Prestashop back office application system. This application provides 2 types of modules, namely Back Office which consists of purchasing, sales, inventory, cash and bank modules, Front Office which functions as cash sales, so it is very easy to use by SMEs.

Diagnostic Condition

In this paper, a web-based remote ENT diagnosis system is proposed. This service model encourages busy modem office workers to frequently understand their health conditions using a convenient manner. The software and hardware components are developed for patients and physicians. At the patient site, the EDH is implemented to acquire patients' symptoms and signs, and these symptoms and signs are recorded as video and audio files using a SDRS program. The SDRS program further transmits hese files and data to the VHS. Physicians may review the EPR through conventional web browser. Finally, tentative diagnostic reports are made for patients’ references. Two case studies are tested to verify the quality of remote diagnosis. Experiment results demonstrated that the proposed remote ENT diagnosis systems successful establish similar ENT diagnostic condition compared to face-to-face diagnoses.

<p>Ecological research like wildlife censuses increasingly relies on data on the scale of Terabytes. For example, modern camera trap datasets contain millions of images that require prohibitive amounts of manual labour to be annotated with species, bounding boxes, and the like. Machine learning, especially deep learning [3], could greatly accelerate this task through automated predictions, but involves expansive coding and expert knowledge.</p><p>In this abstract we present AIDE, the Annotation Interface for Data-driven Ecology [2]. In a first instance, AIDE is a web-based annotation suite for image labelling with support for concurrent access and scalability, up to the cloud. In a second instance, it tightly integrates deep learning models into the annotation process through active learning [7], where models learn from user-provided labels and in turn select the most relevant images for review from the large pool of unlabelled ones (Fig. 1). The result is a system where users only need to label what is required, which saves time and decreases errors due to fatigue.</p><p><img src="https://contentmanager.copernicus.org/fileStorageProxy.php?f=gnp.0402be60f60062057601161/sdaolpUECMynit/12UGE&app=m&a=0&c=131251398e575ac9974634bd0861fadc&ct=x&pn=gnp.elif&d=1" alt=""></p><p><em>Fig. 1: AIDE offers concurrent web image labelling support and uses annotations and deep learning models in an active learning loop.</em></p><p>AIDE includes a comprehensive set of built-in models, such as ResNet [1] for image classification, Faster R-CNN [5] and RetinaNet [4] for object detection, and U-Net [6] for semantic segmentation. All models can be customised and used without having to write a single line of code. Furthermore, AIDE accepts any third-party model with minimal implementation requirements. To complete the package, AIDE offers both user annotation and model prediction evaluation, access control, customisable model training, and more, all through the web browser.</p><p>AIDE is fully open source and available under https://github.com/microsoft/aerial_wildlife_detection.</p><p> </p><p><strong>References</strong></p>

Share Information

The recent technological advancements have significantly redefined the context in which organizations do business processes including the processes used to acquire, process, and share information. The transformations that emerged across the organizational and institutional landscapes have led to the emergence of new organizational forms of design and new business models. Within this context, the new business patterns, platforms, and architectures have been developed to enable for the maximization of benefits from data through the adoption of collaborative work practices. The main focus of such practices is oriented towards the improvement of responsiveness, building of alliances, and enhancing organizational reach. The use of global networks and Web-based systems for the implementation of collaborative work has been accompanied with a wide range of computer-supported collaborative systems. This chapter examines the context of collaboration, collaborative work, and the development of agent-supported collaborative work system. It also examines the implications of the ontological positions of sociomateriality on agent-supported collaborative work domains in terms of the multi-agent architecture and multi-agent evaluation.

Support Decision Making

Data warehouse and OLAP systems are tools to support decision-making. Geographic information systems (GISs) allow memorizing, analyzing and visualizing geographic data. In order to exploit the complex nature of geographic data, a new kind of decision support system has been developed: spatial OLAP (SOLAP). Spatial OLAP redefines main OLAP concepts: dimension, measure and multidimensional operators. SOLAP systems integrate OLAP and GIS functionalities into a unique interactive and flexible framework. Several research tools have been proposed to explore and the analyze spatio-multidimensional databases. This chapter presents a panorama of SOLAP models and an analytical review of research SOLAP tools. Moreover, the authors describe their Web-based system: GeWOlap. GeWOlap is an OLAP-GIS integrated solution implementing drill and cut spatio-multidimensional operators, and it supports some new spatio-multidimensional operators which change dynamically the structure of the spatial hypercube thanks to spatial analysis operators.
