JEERP: Energy Aware Enterprise Resource Planning
Ever increasing energy costs, and saving requirements, especially in enterprise contexts, are pushing the limits of Enterprise Resource Planning to better account energy, with component-level asset granularity. Using an application-oriented approach we discuss the different aspects involved in designing Energy Aware ERPs and we show a prototypical open source implementation based on the Dog Domotic Gateway and the Oratio ER
Mapping Big Data into Knowledge Space with Cognitive Cyber-Infrastructure
Big data research has attracted great attention in science, technology,
industry and society. It is developing with the evolving scientific paradigm,
the fourth industrial revolution, and the transformational innovation of
technologies. However, its nature and fundamental challenge have not been
recognized, and its own methodology has not been formed. This paper explores
and answers the following questions: What is big data? What are the basic
methods for representing, managing and analyzing big data? What is the
relationship between big data and knowledge? Can we find a mapping from big
data into knowledge space? What kind of infrastructure is required to support
not only big data management and analysis but also knowledge discovery, sharing
and management? What is the relationship between big data and science paradigm?
What is the nature and fundamental challenge of big data computing? A
multi-dimensional perspective is presented toward a methodology of big data
computing.Comment: 59 page
When Things Matter: A Data-Centric View of the Internet of Things
With the recent advances in radio-frequency identification (RFID), low-cost
wireless sensor devices, and Web technologies, the Internet of Things (IoT)
approach has gained momentum in connecting everyday objects to the Internet and
facilitating machine-to-human and machine-to-machine communication with the
physical world. While IoT offers the capability to connect and integrate both
digital and physical entities, enabling a whole new class of applications and
services, several significant challenges need to be addressed before these
applications and services can be fully realized. A fundamental challenge
centers around managing IoT data, typically produced in dynamic and volatile
environments, which is not only extremely large in scale and volume, but also
noisy, and continuous. This article surveys the main techniques and
state-of-the-art research efforts in IoT from data-centric perspectives,
including data stream processing, data storage models, complex event
processing, and searching in IoT. Open research issues for IoT data management
are also discussed
Semantic enabled complex event language for business process monitoring
Efforts are being made to enable business process monitoring and analysis through processing continuously generated events. Several ontologies and tools have been defined and implemented to allow applying general-purpose Business Process Analysis techniques to specific domains. On this basis, a Semantic Enabled Monitoring Event Language (SEMEL) is proposed to facilitate defining complex queries over monitoring data so as to interleave temporal and ontological reasoning. In this paper, the formal semantics of SEMEL is discussed, and the implementation approach of SEMEL interpreter is also briefly described, which encompasses translation into an operational language

A framework for feeding Linked Data to Complex Event Processing engines
A huge volume of Linked Data has been published on the Web, yet is not processable by Complex Event Processing (CEP) or Event Stream Processing (ESP) engines. This paper presents a frame-work to bridge this gap, under which Linked Data are first translated into events conforming to a lightweight ontology, and then fed to CEP engines. The event processing results will also be published back onto the Web of Data. In this way, CEP engines are connected to the Web of Data, and the ontological reasoning is integrated with event processing. Finally, the implementation method and a case study of the framework are presented
A Survey on IT-Techniques for a Dynamic Emergency Management in Large Infrastructures
This deliverable is a survey on the IT techniques that are relevant to the three use cases of the project EMILI. It describes the state-of-the-art in four complementary IT areas: Data cleansing, supervisory control and data acquisition, wireless sensor networks and complex event processing. Even though the deliverable’s authors have tried to avoid a too technical language and have tried to explain every concept referred to, the deliverable might seem rather technical to readers so far little familiar with the techniques it describes

Architecture for Analysis of Streaming Data
While several attempts have been made to construct a scalable and flexible
architecture for analysis of streaming data, no general model to tackle this
task exists. Thus, our goal is to build a scalable and maintainable
architecture for performing analytics on streaming data.
To reach this goal, we introduce a 7-layered architecture consisting of
microservices and publish-subscribe software. Our study shows that this
architecture yields a good balance between scalability and maintainability due
to high cohesion and low coupling of the solution, as well as asynchronous
communication between the layers.
This architecture can help practitioners to improve their analytic solutions.
It is also of interest to academics, as it is a building block for a general
architecture for processing streaming data
