A decision support system for IST academic information
This article describes the Decision Support System (DSS) for Academic Information being developed at Instituto Superior Técnico, the Engineering School of the Technical University of Lisbon. In Portuguese, this project has been given the acronym SADIA (Sistema de Apoio à Decisão da Informação Académica). This paper focuses on the early phases of the DSS development process, i.e., the business requirements definition and the dimensional modelling. First, we show how the business requirements of the School drive the definition of the DSS dimensional model. Second, we detail the logical dimensional model for a selected business process, the IST Student Admission process. Third, the corresponding physical design decisions are reported. The results obtained from the three phases were successfully validated by business users
CBR and MBR techniques: review for an application in the emergencies domain
The purpose of this document is to provide an in-depth analysis of current reasoning engine practice and the integration strategies of Case Based Reasoning and Model Based Reasoning that will be used in the design and development of the RIMSAT system.
RIMSAT (Remote Intelligent Management Support and Training) is a European Commission funded project designed to:
a.. Provide an innovative, 'intelligent', knowledge based solution aimed at improving the quality of critical decisions
b.. Enhance the competencies and responsiveness of individuals and organisations involved in highly complex, safety critical incidents - irrespective of their location.
In other words, RIMSAT aims to design and implement a decision support system that using Case Base Reasoning as well as Model Base Reasoning technology is applied in the management of emergency situations.
This document is part of a deliverable for RIMSAT project, and although it has been done in close contact with the requirements of the project, it provides an overview wide enough for providing a state of the art in integration strategies between CBR and MBR technologies.Postprint (published version
Proceedings of the 15th Conference on Knowledge Organization WissOrg'17 of theGerman Chapter of the International Society for Knowledge Organization (ISKO),30th November - 1st December 2017, Freie Universität Berlin
Wissensorganisation is the name of a series of biennial conferences /
workshops with a long tradition, organized by the German chapter of the
International Society of Knowledge Organization (ISKO). The 15th conference in
this series, held at Freie Universität Berlin, focused on knowledge
organization for the digital humanities. Structuring, and interacting with,
large data collections has become a major issue in the digital humanities. In
these proceedings, various aspects of knowledge organization in the digital
humanities are discussed, and the authors of the papers show how projects in
the digital humanities deal with knowledge organization.Wissensorganisation ist der Name einer Konferenzreihe mit einer langjährigen
Tradition, die von der Deutschen Sektion der International Society of
Knowledge Organization (ISKO) organisiert wird. Die 15. Konferenz dieser
Reihe, die an der Freien Universität Berlin stattfand, hatte ihren Schwerpunkt
im Bereich Wissensorganisation und Digital Humanities. Die Strukturierung von
und die Interaktion mit großen Datenmengen ist ein zentrales Thema in den
Digital Humanities. In diesem Konferenzband werden verschiedene Aspekte der
Wissensorganisation in den Digital Humanities diskutiert, und die Autoren der
einzelnen Beiträge zeigen, wie die Digital Humanities mit Wissensorganisation
umgehen
Governance of Digitalization in Europe A contribution to the Exploration Shaping Digital Policy - Towards a Fair Digital Society? BertelsmannStiftung Study
Digital policy is a unique policy area. As a cross-cutting policy issue, it has an impact not only on individual areas
of regulation but on almost all other policy areas as well. Aspects of digital policy such as data regimes, cybersecurity
and standardization issues are relevant not only to the the future of the internet or 5G mobile communications
infrastructure, but to other areas of our lives to which they are closely linked, which range from automated driving
to digital assistance systems in education and healthcare to the digitalization of sectors such as agriculture and
construction. Nevertheless, regulation efforts have thus far been primarily sector-specific and national in their
scope. With a few exceptions, such as the EU’s controversial General Data Protection Regulation, there are few
digital policy frameworks in place for Europe that defines and integrates basic principles for broad application.
Instead, we face a situation in which a variety of approaches stand side by side, at times complementing each other
but also – all too often – competing with each other in ways that foster inconsistencies. The development of Europe’s
5G infrastructure is illustrative of this state of affairs. Despite the presence of what were originally uniform
objectives across Europe, 28 nationally distinct tendering procedures with different requirements have since
emerged. As a result, we must now find ways to manage the problems associated with having three or more networks
per country, high costs, a difficult debate over security and the threat of dependency on non-EU providers
