The story details the planning, funding and construction of the telescope; the people who masterminded and contributed to the project; and the involvement of the US Department of Defense in funding the construction. It also includes the seminal scientific achievements in the three research areas to which the telescope contributed, ionospheric physics, planetary science and radio astronomy.The book continues through later upgrades made to the site, showing how the Arecibo telescope has arguably remained the world’s most versatile and productive radio science instrument for over 50 years. This historical account will fascinate astronomers and historians of science, serving as a valuable contribution to the history of 20th century astronomy.

Free Download Discovery and Selection of Semantic Web Services By Xia Wang, Wolfgang A. Halang (auth.)
2013 | 154 Pages | ISBN: 3642339379 | PDF | 3 MB
For advanced web search engines to be able not only to search for semantically related information dispersed over different web pages, but also for semantic services providing certain functionalities, discovering semantic services is the key issue. Addressing four problems of current solution, this book presents the following contributions. A novel service model independent of semantic service description models is proposed, which clearly defines all elements necessary for service discovery and selection. It takes service selection as its gist and improves efficiency. Corresponding selection algorithms and their implementation as components of the extended Semantically Enabled Service-oriented Architecture in the Web Service Modeling Environment are detailed. Many applications of semantic web services, e.g. discovery, composition and mediation, can benefit from a general approach for building application ontologies. With application ontologies thus built, services are discovered in the same way as with single domain ontologies, and the mediation problem between service ontologies is solved. Further, an ontology-based approach to improve service discovery is proposed and validated. Within the service model, a service selection approach oriented at quality criteria is proposed. It normalises diverse qualities of a service in their respective metrics and employs a service selection algorithm based on soundness.

2013 | 222 Pages | ISBN: 3642358543 | PDF | 6 MB
The recent and novel research contributions collected in this book are extended andreworked versions of a selection of the best papers that were originally presented inFrench at the EGC’2011 Conference held in Brest, France, on January 2011.EGC stands for "Extraction et Gestion des connaissances" in French, and means "Knowledge Discovery and Management" or KDM.KDM is concerned with the works in computer science at the interface between data and knowledge; such as Data Mining, Knowledge Discovery, Business Intelligence, Knowledge Engineering and Semantic Web. This book is intended to be read by all researchers interested in these fields, includingPhD or MSc students, and researchers from public or private laboratories. Itconcerns both theoretical and practical aspects of KDM.This book has been structured in two parts. The first part, entitled "Data Mining, classification and queries", deals with rule and pattern mining, with topological approachesand with OLAP.The second part of the book, entitled "Ontology and Semantic", is relatedto knowledge-based and user-centered approaches in KDM.
