  <description><![CDATA[We discuss the challenges involved in adapting the OntoSem natural
language processing system to the Web.  One set of tasks involves
processing Web documents, translating their computed meaning
representations from the OntoSem's native KR language into the
Semantic Web language OWL, and publishing the results as Web pages and
RSS feeds.  Another set of tasks works in reverse -- querying the Web
for facts needed by OntoSem, translating them from OWL into OntoSem's

  <description><![CDATA[Many intelligent agents need knowledge and information to
support their reasoning and problem solving. The World
Wide Web is a vast, open, accessible and free source of
knowledge, but virtually all of it is encoded as natural language
text � a form difficult for most agents to directly understand.
We describe initial work on adapting a mature language
understanding agent to process Web text and publish
its output in the SemanticWeb language OWL. This approach
adds knowledge on the W...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[The Platform for Privacy Preferences (P3P) is a W3C framework for web privacy 
management. It provides a standard vocabulary that websites can use to describe their privacy practices.  
The presence of website published P3P policies enable users to configure web browsers to
allow, block or warn users during access and data exchange with websites.
It's a good idea that unfortunately is rarely used. We identify three

  <description><![CDATA[The Platform for Privacy Preferences (P3P) is a W3C standard that websites can use to describe their privacy practices.  The presence of P3P policies enable users to configure web browsers to constrain what they can and cannot do when visiting websites.  It's a good idea that unfortunately is rarely used.  We identify two reasons: (i) the languages available to define a user's privacy preferences are not very expressive and (ii) most websites do not have published P3P policies.

  <description><![CDATA[The proliferation of information on the world wide web has made
the personalization of this information space a necessity. One
possible approach to web personalization is to mine typical user
profiles from the vast amount of historical data stored in access
logs. In the absence of any a priori knowledge, unsupervised
classification or clustering methods seem to be ideally suited to
analyze the semi-structured log data of user accesses. In this paper,
we define the notion of a “user s...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[In this paper, we present a proxy based system
(MOWSER) to support web browsing from mobile clients
over wireless networks. Mowser is a proxy agent between
the mobile host and the web server, which performs active
transcoding of data on both upstream and downstream traf-
c to present web information to the mobile user according
to the QoS parameters set by the user. Active transcoding is
dened as modifying the HTTP stream in situ, and it is en-
tirely transparent to the user. Furthe...]]></description>

This presentation covers key issues related to Geospatial Semantic Web: (1) extracting hidden knowledge from unstructured and structured data, (2) knowledge fusion over heterogeneous data sources, (3) ontology sharing and (4) building user-friendly Semantic Web applications.
 It also describes state-of-the-art technolog...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Ruby, a programming language written in the early 1990s in Japan, has won the attention of a growing number of developers.  This has been attributed to Ruby's "killer app", Rails.  Ruby on Rails is a web framework built on the programming biases held by rubyists and an elite group of core developers.  Convention over configuration is a mantra that continues to win developers away from their mile long XML configuration files.  One evidence of which is that attendance between the first Rails Co...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Anubhav Kale will present a synopsis of two papers in the broad area of improving web search.  Exploiting Semantic Association To Answer Vague Queries takes an approach of using "relatedness" of keywords to generate accurate search results for vague queries. Ranking Complex Relationships on the Semantic Web explores the challenges in ranking relationships on semantic web and proposes a model for the same. If time permits, he will talk in brief about his summer internship at ITA Software.]]></description>

sites like flickr,
delicious and youtube have become both a source of information and

The size of audience that these sites currently yield is already rivaling

Blogs, especially, have been reported to play a notable role in
influencing the buying patterns of consumers. Often a buyer looks for

  <description><![CDATA[Many researchers have applied text classification techniques to the ontology mapping problem. The mapping results in these researches heavily depend on the availability of highly relevant text exemplars associated with individual concepts. However, manual preparation of exemplars is costly. In this work, we propose to automatically collect text exemplars by downloading and processing web pages listed in the search results obtained by querying a search engine. Search queries are formed for eac...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Google's phenomenal success may be ascribed as much to a revolution in advertising as to its superior search results. The key to this online advertising model is an innovative auction run by the search engine companies. Advertisers' bids for search keywords determine which ads are displayed during internet searches. There are a number of algorithmic and game theoretic issues that arise in this context. In particular, the problem of maximizing revenue in such keyword auctions can be formulated...]]></description>
