Chapter
As a promising alternative to the fundamental device structure, the gate-all-around silicon nanowire transistor (GAA SNWT) has been studied extensively for decades. In this chapter, the device physics, compact...

The first challenge of accomplishing the goals of any successful instructional system depends on accurately identifying characteristics of a particular learner or group of learners – such as the type and level...
Chapter
Television signals have been broadcast around the world for many decades. More flexibility was introduced with the arrival of the VCR. PVR (personal video recorder) devices such as the TiVo further enhanced th...
Chapter and Conference Paper
A novel diagnosis method named SeCED-FS is proposed in this paper. The method combines the clusterer ensemble and feature selection technique to improve the diagnosis performance. At first, selective clusterer...

Chapter and Conference Paper
KSORD(Keyword Search Over Relational Databases) is an easy and effective way for casual users or Web users to access relational databases. In recent years, much research on KSORD has been done, and many protot...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Wireless sensor networks are demonstrating the valuable potential in a variety of settings, e.g. data analysis and statistics. How to minimize energy consumption and prolong network lifetime become one of the ...
Chapter and Conference Paper
The abundance of ontology data is very crucial to the emerging semantic web. This paper proposes a framework that supports the generation of ontology data in a ptop environment. It not only enables users to co...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Recent research has focused on density queries for moving objects in highly dynamic scenarios. An area is dense if the number of moving objects it contains is above some threshold. Monitoring dense areas has a...
Chapter and Conference Paper
This paper proposes a method based on Probability Latent Semantic Analysis (PLSA) to analyze web pages that are of interest to the user and the user query co-occurrence relationship, and utilize the latent fac...
Chapter and Conference Paper
While active rules have been applied in many areas including active databases, XML documentation and Semantic Web, current methods remain largely uncertain of how to terminate active behaviors. Some existing m...
Chapter and Conference Paper
An XML publish/subscribe algorithm needs to store large numbers of XPath or XQuery subscriptions and match subscriptions with published XML documents. Since the number of the subscriptions may be very large, t...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Using index to process structural queries on XML data is a natural way. F&B-Index has been proven to be the smallest index which covers all branching path queries. One disadvantage which prevents the wide usag...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Recently, mining compact frequent patterns (for example closed patterns and compressed patterns) has received much attention from data mining researchers. These studies try to address the interpretability and ...
Chapter and Conference Paper
The key points of the semi-supervised learning problem are the label smoothness and cluster assumptions. In graph-based semi-supervised learning, graph representations of the data are so important that differe...
Chapter and Conference Paper
The spectral graph theories have been widely used in the domain of image clustering where editing distances between graphs are critical. This paper presents a method for spectral edit distance between the grap...
Chapter and Conference Paper
In peer-to-peer (P2P) systems, peers often must interact with unknown or unfamiliar peers without the benefit of trusted third parties or authorities to mediate the interactions. Trust management through reput...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Data protection is widely deployed in database systems, but the current technologies (e.g. backup, snapshot, mirroring and replication) can not restore database systems to any point in time. This means that da...
Chapter and Conference Paper
Previous work for finding patterns only focuses on grou** objects under the same subset of dimensions. Thus, an important bio-interesting pattern, i.e. time-shifting, will be ignored during the analysis of t...
