We present a prototype of an inductive database. Our system enables the user to query not only the data stored in the database but also generalizations (e.g. rules or trees) over ...
Comparative analysis of protein networks has proven to be a powerful approach for elucidating network structure and predicting protein function and interaction. A fundamental chall...
Abstract Sensor devices produce data that are unreliable, low-level, and seldom able to be used directly by applications. In this paper, we propose Metaphysical Data Independence (...

Many pervasive computing systems have been built for using mobile computers to interact with networked devices. To deploy a device's user-interface, several systems dynamical...
This paper proposes a multiagent based virtual community as a new means to support pervasive computing services. We give a conceptual definition of the concept of Place-Based Virt...
