Comparison of Approaches for Gathering Data from the Web for Technology Trend Analysis

Ayse Kaya Firat, Wei Lee Woon, Stuart E. Madnick
2008 Social Science Research Network  
Background Cameleon# Cameleon# [1] is a generic web wrapper developed by the MIT Context Interchange (COIN) group.  ...  By using a web query file 2 , we can include SQL queries directed to web sites (which have Cameleon# spec files) and import the Cameleon# results into Excel.  ...

Querying Web-Sources within a Data Federation

Lynn Wu, Aykut Firat, Tarik Alatovic, Stuart E. Madnick
2006 Social Science Research Network  
IBM WebSphere uses the "request-reply-compensate" protocol to communicate with wrappers in a data federation.  ...  We offer a practical middle-ground solution to querying web-sources, using IBM's data federation system as an example.  ...  Cameleon web wrapper is one such engine that can be used for data extraction purpose.  ...

Global Comparison Aggregation Services

Harry Zhu, Stuart E. Madnick, Michael Siegel
2003 Social Science Research Network  
Global aggregation services can bring efficiency to the global market and can be useful for market research and other business uses.  ...  As an example, using multiple regional comparison aggregators, we analyze the global prices for a Sony camcorder, which differ by more than three times.  ...  Acknowledgement The study has been supported, in part, by BSCH, Fleet Bank, Merrill Lynch, MITRE Corporation, the Singapore-MIT Alliance, and Suruga Bank  ...

Flexible re-engineering of web sites

Laurent Bouillon, Jean Vanderdonckt, Kwok Chieu Chow
2004 Proceedings of the 9th international conference on Intelligent user interface - IUI '04  
Re-engineering is used to adapt a UI to another context.  ...  To support this process, we have developed a reverse engineering tool that allows a flexible recovery of the presentation model from Web sites, adapting the reverse engineering to the target platforms,  ...  We gratefully acknowledge the support of the EU IST 5 Project « Cameleon » (http://giove.cnuce.cnr.it/ cameleon.html) and the other members of the project.  ...

General Strategy for Querying Web Sources in a Data Federation Environment [chapter]

Aykut Firat, Lynn Wu, Stuart Madnick
Web Technologies  
We use IBM DB2 federation engine to demonstrate the challenges of incorporating Web sources into a data federation.  ...  Wrapper development for Web sources, however, is a convolution of code with extraction and query planning knowledge and becomes a daunting task.  ...  Aykut Firat is an assistant professor in the information, operations, and analysis group at Northeastern University.  ...

Ontologies as Background Knowledge to Explore Document Collections

Nathalie Aussenac-Gilles, Josiane Mothe
2004 Open research Areas in Information Retrieval  
A given context is described through its vocabulary organised along hierarchies that structure the information space.  ...  First, hierarchies (extracted from the ontology) provide with a language and synthetic representation to be explored by the users to express their information need.  ...  These views can interactively be changed in particular using different levels of aggregation that corresponds to the levels of detail the data is viewed with.  ...

2005 Lecture Notes in Computer Science  
We propose the use of the COIN strategy to solve context disparity and ontology interoperability problems in the emerging Semantic Web -both at the ontology level and at the data level.  ...  COIN has used its own notation and syntax for representing ontologies. More recently, the OWL Web Ontology Language is becoming established as the W3C recommended ontology language.  ...  The research reported herein has been supported, in part, by the Singapore-MIT Alliance (SMA).  ...
