The first is that text and multimedia objects on the Web are easy for people to understand but difficult for machines to interpret and use.  The second is that the Web's access paradigm remains dominated by information retrieval, where keyword queries produce a ranked list of documents that must be read to find the desired information.

Tables are an integral part of documents, reports and Web pages in many scientific and technical domains, compactly encoding important information that can be difficult to express in text. Table-like structures outside documents, such as spreadsheets, CSV files, log files and databases, are widely used to represent and share information. However, tables remain beyond the scope of regular text processing systems which often treat them like free text.

Lushan Han

Developing interfaces to enable casual, non-expert users to query complex structured data has been the subject of much research over the past forty years. We refer to them as as schema-free query interfaces, since they allow users to freely query data without understanding its schema, knowing how to refer to objects, or mastering the appropriate formal query language. Schema-free query interfaces address fundamental problems in natural la...]]></description>

Data exfilteration is the unauthorized leakage of confidential data from a particular system.  It is a specific form of intrusion that is particularly hard to catch due to the most common cause: an insider entity who is responsible for the leak. That entity could be a person employed in the organization or a malicious hardware component bought from an unreliable third party. Catching such intrusions, therefore, can be extremely difficult.

  <description><![CDATA[Building flexible manufacturing supply chains requires interoperable and accurate manufacturing service capability (MSC) information of all supply chain participants. Today, MSC information, which is typically published either on the supplier’s web site or registered at an e-marketplace portal, has been shown to fall short of the interoperability and accuracy requirements. This issue can be addressed by annotating the MSC information using shared ontologies. However, ontology-based approach...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Traditional intrusion detection and prevention systems (IDPSs) have well known limitations that decrease their utility against many kinds of attacks.  Current state-of-the-art IDPSs are point based solutions that perform a simple analysis of host or network data and then flag an alert.  Only known attacks whose signatures have been identified and stored in some form can be discovered by most of these systems.  They cannot detect attacks that use low-and-slow vectors.  Many times an attack is ...]]></description>

With the increase in interest in web based e-commerce, the amount of business that is transacted on-line and the explosion in the amount of services available, the ability to
handle security and privacy is a must. Also, as computationally enabled devices (laptops, phones, PDAs, and even household appliances) become more commonplace and short range wireless connectivity improves; there...]]></description>

Acting as a record-keeper, this agent tracks a user's context by acquiring information from external sources (e.g., the context brokers in different smart spaces). Acting as an information provider, this agent shares the updated context information about a user with systems that attempt to provide services to the user.
