WebDAV extends the web communication protocol HTTP/1.1 to provide a distributed authoring and versioning across the Internet. A property management, the principal ability of WebDAV, has many advantages for managing and utilizing additional information of server resources as well as supports a role of storage. Most WebDAV Application systems currently available are using WebDAV for providing simple storage space, not for the functionality of property management. However, to develop an advanced application such as a collaborative system based on WebDAV, it is very important to design and utilize user-defined WebDAV properties. In this paper, we propose DavSUDP(WebDAV Simple User-defined Property Definition Protocol) that describes XML-based configurations representing WebDAV user-defined properties and their processing steps. DavSUDP enables WebDAV servers to effectively manage user-defined properties in developing WebDAV-based applications. To show this, we extended the Apache mod_dav module to support DavSVDP and developed the OpenSpace in the iPlace collaborative system using the extended Apache web server.

Our study is focused on a multiple-agent system to provide efficient collaborative work by automating the conference calling process with the help of intelligent agents. Automating the meeting scheduling requires a careful consideration of the individual official schedule as well as the privacy and personal preferences. Therefore, the automation of conference calling needs the distributed processing task where a separate calendar management process is associated for increasing the reliability and inherent parallelism. This paper describes in detail the design and implementation issues of a multiple-agent system for conference calling that allows the convener and participants to minimize their efforts in creating a meeting. Our system is based on the client-sewer model. In the sewer side, a scheduling agent, a negotiating agent, a personal information managing agent, a group information managing agent, a session managing agent, and a coordinating agent are operating. In the client side, an interface agent, a media agent, and a collaborating agent are operating. Agents use a standardized knowledge manipulation language to communicate amongst themselves. Communicating through a standardized knowledge manipulation language allows the system to overcome heterogeneity which is one of the most important problems in communication among agents for distributed collaborative computing. The agents of our system propose the dates on which as many participants as possible are available to attend the conference using the forward chaining algorithm and the back propagation network algorithm.

Although a number of container terminal simulators have been developed for various purposes, none of the existing simulators allow the system structure to reuse the system structure depending on application. Our goal is to develop highly reusable, highly inter-operable and flexible container terminal simulation system. The High Level Architecture(HLA) is an architecture for reuse and inter-operation of simulation. It is based on premise that no simulation can satisfy all use and users. An individual simulation or set of simulations developed for one purpose can be applied to another application under the HLA concept of the federation : a composable set of interacting simulations. The intent of the HLA is a structure which will support reuse of capabilities available in different simulations, ultimately reducing the cost and time required to create a synthetic environment for a new purpose, and the possibility of distributed collaborative development of complex simulation applications. In this paper, we discuss the design of a HLA-based port container terminal simulation system. Furthermore, we describe various technical motivations for HLA, the key elements of the architecture and how they are minimum and essential to the goal of reuse and interoperability.

With the fast development of Internet environment, e-Commerce is rapidly increasing. n the expanding e-Commerce environment, the need for a new e-Commerce systems what will deliver products to the customer rapidly and increase sales is growing bigger. Recently, these requirements brought many researches on recommender systems. However, until now, those recommender systems have a limit because it takes too much time for recommender systems to give customers the recommendations in real time, if the number of purchase data of customers is large. So this paper concerns on the recommender systems using collaborative filtering as one of the solutions to increase the competitive power. We proposed and experimented the more improved recommender systems which could decrease the data size to shorten the recommending time by using the representative category of the product which customers want to buy. Also, we design and implement a recommender system using Enterprise JavaBeans.

Recently, distributed collaborative development environment has been recognized an alternative environment for product development in which multidisciplinary participants are naturally involving. Reuse of Product design information has long been recognized as one of core requirements for efficient product development. This paper addresses an image-based retrieval system to support product design information reuse. In the system, product images obtained from multi-modal devices are utilized to reuse design information. The proposed system conducts the segmentation of a product image by using a labeling method and generates an attributed relational graph (ARG) that represents properties of segmented regions and their relationships. The generated ARG is extended by integrating corresponding part/assembly information. In this manner, the reuse of assembly design information using a product image has been realized. The main advantages of the presented system are following. First, the system is not dependent to specific design tools, because it utilizes multimedia images that can be obtained easily from peripheral devices. Second ratio-based features extracted from images enable image retrievals that contain various sizes of parts. Third, the system has shown outstanding search performance, because we applied various information of segmented part regions and their relationships between parts.

In this thesis was conducted to propose a method for efficient information retrieval using concept lattices. Since this thesis designed a new system based on ordinary concept lattices, it has the same approach method as ontology, but this thesis proposes new concept lattices to be used by establishing collaborative relations between objects and concepts that users are likely to search information more efficiently. The system suggested by this thesis can be summarized as below. Firstly, this system leads to a collaborative search by using Three kinds of concepts, such as keyword concept lattices, which focus on input key words, expert concept lattices recommended by experts and theme concept lattices, and based on these 3 concept lattices, it will help users search information they want more efficiently. Besides, as the expert concept and the keyword concept become combined, further providing users with the frequency of keyword and the frequency of category, this system can function to recommend key words related to search words entered by users. Another function of this system is to inform users of key words and categories used in users' interested themes by using the theme concept lattices. Secondly, when there is not keyword entered by a user, it is possible for users to achieve the goal of search through the secondary search when this system provides them with key words related to the input keyword. Thirdly, since most of the information is managed while being dispersed, such dispersed and managed information not only has different expression methods but changes as time goes. Accordingly, By using XMDR for efficient data access and integration of distributed information, this thesis proposes a new technique and retrieval system to integrate dispersed data.

Objective: The objective of this study was to investigate the net micromineral (Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn) requirements for maintenance and growth of Dorper×Jinzhong crossbred ewe lambs at their latter fattening period. Methods: Thirty 1/2 Dorper × 1/2 Jinzhong crossed F1 ewe lambs (35±0.5 kg of body weight [BW]) were used and divided into five groups in a randomized design for a comparative slaughter trial. At the beginning of the experiment, six lambs were randomly selected and slaughtered at 35 kg BW to determine their initial body composition. When their BWs reached 43 kg, another six lambs fed ad libitum were slaughtered to serve as an intermediate slaughter group. The retained eighteen lambs were randomly distributed into three groups and offered one type of feed at 100%, 65%, and 40% of the ad libitum intake. When the lambs fed ad libitum reached a BW of 50 kg, the three groups were slaughtered. The body composition (muscle, fat, bone, blood with viscera, skin, and wool) were weighted, ground, mixed, and subsampled for mineral content analysis. Results: The net maintenance requirements of Cu, Fe, Mn, and Zn were 0.017, 0.160, 0.004, and 0.067 mg/kg BW/d, respectively, and the net growth requirements per 100 grams of average daily gain ranged from 0.48 to 0.51 mg of Cu, 2.63 to 2.17 mg of Fe, 0.12 to 0.15 mg of Mn, and 2.07 to 2.00 mg of Zn, respectively, for Dorper × Jinzhong crossed ewes from 35 to 50 kg BW. Conclusion: Our results suggest that the micromineral requirements for both maintenance and growth of Dorper × Jinzhong crossbred ewe lambs were quite different from the recommendations of NRC (2007), except for Zn.

Today's Internet which provides communication channels with best-effort end-to-end performance is rapidly evolving into an autonomic global computing platform. Achieving autonomicity in the Future Internet will require a performance architecture that (a) allows users to request and own 'slices' of geographically-distributed host and network resources, (b) measures and monitors end-to-end host and network status, (c) enables analysis of the measurements within expert systems, and (d) provides performance intelligence in a timely manner for application adaptations to improve performance and scalability. We describe the requirements and design of one such "Future Internet performance architecture" (FIPA), and present our reference implementation of FIPA called 'OnTimeMeasure.' OnTimeMeasure comprises of several measurement-related services that can interact with each other and with existing measurement frameworks to enable performance intelligence. We also explain our OnTimeMeasure deployment in the global environment for network innovations (GENI) infrastructure collaborative research initiative to build a sliceable Future Internet. Further, we present an applicationad-aptation case study in GENI that uses OnTimeMeasure-enabled performance intelligence in the context of dynamic resource allocation within thin-client based virtual desktop clouds. We show how a virtual desktop cloud provider in the Future Internet can use the performance intelligence to increase cloud scalability, while simultaneously delivering satisfactory user quality-of-experience.

Existing application systems of enterprises can process and collect a lot of information within enterprises, but it could be difficult to share validated information with partners and other system in the process of contacting to other legacy systems required in cooperation environment. For solving these problems, EAI systems are introduced in cooperation environment so that data sharing and integration can be achieved. The integration based on EAI is not limited to particular business system but all systems of an enterprise so that standard of suitable metadata level is needed for forwarding consistently between each business of systems. Therefore this paper maintains consistency of data sharing and integrating among legacy systems in cooperative environment for proposing message exchanging based on bridge XMDR.
