    The intended goal of semantic web is to provide the search results to the user with at most accuracy and good precision. To make possible, the object of semantic web is to add semantics to the existing information on the Web using semantic web languages. These web languages have been to express detail information of the content present on the web with help of Ontologies. Ontology is expressed in a knowledge representation language, which provides a formal frame of semantics. Therefore we provide a brief explanation of semantic web languages in which some of them uses description logic and frames as basis. These semantic languages used in construction and understanding of ontologies clearly. The goal of this paper is to provide a brief survey of state-of-the-art ontology languages which are used to express ontology over the Web, a basic understanding of ontologies and how the ontologies are constructed

    Providing QoS in a Cognitive Radio Network

    Abstract-We consider the problem of wireless channel allocation (whenever the channels are free) to multiple cognitive radio users in a Cognitive Radio Network (CRN) so as to satisfy their Quality of Service (QoS) requirements efficiently. The CRN base station may not know the channel states of all the users. The multiple channels are available at random times. In this setup Opportunistic Splitting can be an attractive solution. A disadvantage of this algorithm is that it requires the metrics of all users to be an independent, identically distributed sequence. However we use a recently generalized version of this algorithm in which the optimal parameters are learnt on-line through stochastic approximation and metrics can be Markov. We provide scheduling algorithms which maximize weightedsum system throughput or are throughput or delay optimal. We also consider the scenario when some traffic streams are delay sensitive

    This paper presents modeling, design and analysis of a bidirectional half-bridge DC/DC converter suitable for power electronic interface between the main energy storage system and the electric traction drive in hybrid electric vehicles. A hybrid energy storage system composed of a battery unit and an ultra-capacitor pack is considered. A parallel dc-linked multi input converter with a half-bridge bidirectional DC/DC cell topology is chosen to link the battery/ultra capacitor storage unit with the dc-link. The paper focuses on modeling the proposed converter for both dynamic and steady state analysis. Averaging and linearization techniques are applied to obtain the averaged state space models and small signal models of the converter in both boost and buck operation modes. A criterion for sizing the converter passive components based on the imposed design specifications and constraints is illustrated. Simulation results of the buck-boost converter during normal functioning and under faulty conditions are presented. In particular, short-circuit faults and open-circuit faults of diodes and transistors are analyzed

    Objective: This survey was conducted to estimate the number of cancer patients in the region of Guntur-based on sex, age and cancer groups. The data were obtained from the hospital-based registries from Bommidala Cancer Institute, NRI Hospital, Balaji Cancer Care Center, and Govt. General Hospital, which was scrutinized and analysed.Methods: The hospital registry entry was considered suitable for assessing the cancer cases in the region of Guntur. In addition, data of NCRP were utilised for comparing the obtained results.Results: The data comprehensively constitutes of 309 patients. Out of which men were 74 (23.95%), and women were 235 (76.05%) who had obtained treatment for various cancer conditions between March-May, 2016. In these hospitals, cancers pertaining to the cervix-83 (31.32%), breast-52 (19.62%), ovary–17 (6.41%), lymphoid-11 (4.15%), pharynx-10 (3.77%), endometrium-10 (3.77%), astrocytoma-08 (3.02%), colon-07 (2.64%), larynx-06 (2.26%), rectum–06 (2.26%), oesophagus–05 (1.88%), post cricoids-04 (1.50%), stomach–04 (1.50%), liver–03 (1.13%) were the leading sites in order. While among these cases, radiation therapy patients were 194 (62.78%), chemotherapy patients were 78 (25.24%), and surgery patients were 37 (11.97 %).Conclusion: Survey reports the highest incidence of cancer cases to be cervix cancer among the women while it was pharyngeal cancer which precedes lung cancer among the men. This hospital-based registry survey is a report that provided internal consistency, reliability and validity
