Navigating the Glass Labyrinth of Web Development
ISBN: 9783838318196 / Angielski / Miękka / 68 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Recently, the Internet has become a new and exciting method of information exchange. Unfortunately, it has also become the most ambiguous medium to measure effectively. Many Web developers miss the overall understanding of how Web sites could be more successful and beneficial for the users. Essentially, they miss the opportunity to use the Web as a public relations tool. This is especially true for institutions of higher education. Even when institutions use various public relations methods they are not guaranteed successful Web ventures. Therefore, research must be done to understand...

ISBN: 9783838301402 / Angielski / Miękka / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The amount of information available on the World Wide Web is growing exponentially and with this growth comes difficulty for users to find desired information. This difficulty lies in two areas: the lack of relevant results, and the insufficient sorting of the relevant results from the irrelevant results. User interfaces of major Web search engines currently do not guide users to construct less ambiguous (i.e., better) search queries and do not sort results in useful methods. Long serial lists of query results are not always enough for a satisfying user experience. This book provides new...

Enhancing Tagging Systems
ISBN: 9783838370354 / Angielski / Miękka / 56 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Searching through bulks of information that are currently present on the web is difficult, therefore mechanisms such as tagging are used in order to facilitate browsing through this content. Current tagging systems do not address any common issues that arise by tagging. We aim to analyze and improve the process of tagging, specially in the field of blogging systems. We propose a novel approach for creating an intelligent tagging tool based on semantic technologies, that is able to facilitate the categorization of the content of a community student blog portal.

Transport Services for Converged IP Networks
ISBN: 9783838351292 / Angielski / Miękka / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Providing a transport service over IP that meets the timeliness and availability requirements of soft real-time applications has turned out to be a complex task. Although network solutions such as IntServ, DiffServ, MPLS, and VRRP have been suggested, these solutions many times fail to provide a transport service for soft real-time applications end to end. Additionally, they have so far only been modestly deployed. In light of this, this thesis considers transport protocols for soft real-time applications. Part I of the thesis focuses on the design and analysis of transport protocols...

We have developed a complaints ontology with which the complaints of the citizens can be...

Information and Communication Technologies (ICT)
ISBN: 9783838330693 / Angielski / Miękka / 64 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book explores the issue of "digital divide" - the gap between countries that have highly developed technologies, measured by the Internet adoption, and those which do not - by utilizing a classical approach towards convergence estimation across countries. The estimated results suggest that there exists both an absolute and conditional convergence, implying that the "digital divide" bridges over time so that inequality between countries in terms of the Internet development vanishes over time, or that the extent of inequality does not become larger. The main factors stipulating the...
