Flooding based P2P system basically provides anonymity and under the anonymity circumstances user and provider exchange information. Most of packets transferred from node to node do not contain identity information on node that sent packet. And these packets are transmitted to the destination through the routing systems dynamically composed of intermediate nodes. Therefore it is impossible to know who transmitted it for the first and who the designated recipient is. But since downloading and uploading host's IP address is exposed it does not provide anonymity. This study introduces techniques to provide anonymity for protecting identification of users and resource Providers by replacing QueryHit Packets in systems where anonymity can cause trouble.

Information retrieval systems for structured documents which are written in SGML or XML support partial retrieval of document. In order to efficiently process queries based on document structures, low memory overhead for indexing, quick response time for queries, supports to powerful types of user queries, and minimal updates of index structure for document updates are required. This paper suggests the Global Document Instance Tree(GDIT) and proposes an effective indexing scheme and query processing algorithms based on the GDIT. The indexing scheme keeps up indexing and retrieval effciency and also guarantees minimal updates of the index structure when document structures are updated.

This Paper suggests a new feature for shot detection, using the proposed robust feature from the DC image constructed by DCT DC coefficients in the MPEG video stream, and proposes the characterizing value that reflects the characteristic of kind of video (movie, drama, news, music video etc.). The key frames are pulled out from many frames by using the local minima and maxima of differential of the value. After original frame(not do image) are reconstructed for key frame, indexing process is performed through computing parameters. Key frames that are similar to user's query image are retrieved through computing parameters. It is proved that the proposed methods are better than conventional method from experiments. The retrieval accuracy rate is so high in experiments.

Internet users are often frustrated when they try to find“right”piece of information quickly. The reason is that the discovery of available and quality based-resources becomes more difficult to end users while the Internet continues to expand rapidly. Not only incorrect keywords and query expression but word sense ambiguation are the cause of dropping-off in efficiency on Internet search. In this paper, studies were conducted to analyze dropping off in efficiency fir Internet search and discussed reducing user s frustration of the Internet and improving their search strategies.

This paper surveys the design of the adaptive information filtering agents to retrieve the useful information within a large scale database. As the information retrieval through the Internet is generalized, it is necessary to extract the useful information satisfied the user's request condition to reduce the seeking time. For the first, this module is designed by the Rough reduct to generate the reduced minimal knowledge database considered the users natural query language in a large scale knowledge database, and also it is executed the soft computing by the fuzzy composite processing to operate the uncertain value of the reduced schema domain.

Caching in meta-search engines can improve the response time of users' request. We describe the cache scheme in our meta-search engine in terms of its architecture and operational flow. In particular, we propose a popularity-driven cache algorithm that utilizes popularities of queries to determine cached data to be purged. The popularity is a value that represents the normalized occurrence frequency of user queries. This paper presents how to collect popular queries and how to calculate query popularities. An empirical performance evaluation of the popularity-driven caching with the traditional schemes (i.e., least recently used (LRU) and least frequently used (LFU)) has been carried out on a collection of real data. In almost all cases, the proposed replacement policy outperforms LRU and LFU.

In this article we address some system characteristics and challenging issues in developing Context-aware Middleware for Ubiquitous Computing. The functionalities of a Context-aware Middleware includes gathering context data from hardware/software sensors, reasoning and inferring high-level context data, and disseminating/delivering appropriate context data to interested applications/services. The Middleware should facilitate the query, aggregation, and discovery for the contexts, as well as facilities to specify their privacy policy. Following a formal context model using ontology would enable syntactic and semantic interoperability, and knowledge sharing between different domains. Moddleware should also provide different kinds of context classification mechanical as pluggable modules, including rules written in different types of logic (first order logic, description logic, temporal/spatial logic, fuzzy logic, etc.) as well as machine-learning mechanical (supervised and unsupervised classifiers). Different mechanisms have different power, expressiveness and decidability properties, and system developers can choose the appropriate mechanism that best meets the reasoning requirements of each context. And finally, to promote the context-trigger actions in application level, it is important to provide a uniform and platform-independent interface for applications to express their need for different context data without knowing how that data is acquired. The action could involve adapting to the new environment, notifying the user, communicating with another device to exchange information, or performing any other task.

Image annotations allow users to access a large image database with textual queries. But since the surrounding text of Web images is generally noisy. an efficient image annotation and retrieval system is highly desired. which requires effective image search techniques. Data mining techniques can be adopted to de-noise and figure out salient terms or phrases from the search results. Clustering algorithms make it possible to represent visual features of images with finite symbols. Annotationbased image search engines can obtains thousands of images for a given query; but their results also consist of visually noise. In this paper. we present a new algorithm Double-Circles that allows a user to remove noise results and characterize more precise representative annotations. We demonstrate our approach on images collected from Flickr image search. Experiments conducted on real Web images show the effectiveness and efficiency of the proposed model.

The emerging of cloud data sharing can create great values, especially in multi-cloud environments. However, "data island" between different cloud service providers (CSPs) has drawn trust problem in data sharing, causing contradictions with the increasing sharing need of cloud data users. And how to ensure the data value for both data owner and data user before sharing, is another challenge limiting massive data sharing in the multi-cloud environments. To solve the problems above, we propose a Uniform Encoding and Parsing Framework (UEPF) with blockchain to support trustworthy and valuable data sharing. We design namespace-based unique identifier pair to support data description corresponding with data in multi-cloud, and build a blockchain-based data encoding protocol to manage the metadata with identifier pair in the blockchain ledger. To share data in multi-cloud, we build a data parsing protocol with smart contract to query and get the sharing cloud data efficiently. We also build identifier updating protocol to satisfy the dynamicity of data, and data check protocol to ensure the validity of data. Theoretical analysis and experiment results show that UEPF is pretty efficient.

Since the amount of information on the internet is growing rapidly, it is not easy for a user to find relevant information for his/her query. To tackle this issue, the researchers are paying much attention to Document Summarization. The key point in any successful document summarizer is a good document representation. The traditional approaches based on word overlapping mostly fail to produce that kind of representation. Word embedding has shown good performance allowing words to match on a semantic level. Naively concatenating word embeddings makes common words dominant which in turn diminish the representation quality. In this paper, we employ word embeddings to improve the weighting schemes for calculating the Latent Semantic Analysis input matrix. Two embedding-based weighting schemes are proposed and then combined to calculate the values of this matrix. They are modified versions of the augment weight and the entropy frequency that combine the strength of traditional weighting schemes and word embedding. The proposed approach is evaluated on three English datasets, DUC 2002, DUC 2004 and Multilingual 2015 Single-document Summarization. Experimental results on the three datasets show that the proposed model achieved competitive performance compared to the state-of-the-art leading to a conclusion that it provides a better document representation and a better document summary as a result.
