Information integration is great for military operations because the range of pertinent information sources is significantly distinct and dynamic. This article develops an intelligent knowledge treasure comprised of military resource ontology and procedures, as a learning model for better interoperability of heterogeneous resources of the Indian…

This paper presents a model for conducting Internet of Things (IoT) classes based on a web-service oriented cloud platform. The goal of the designed model is to provide university students with knowledge about IoT concepts, possibilities, and business models, and allow them to develop basic system prototypes using general-purpose microdevices and…

Discussion of factors that influence a publisher's choice of electronic and media delivery techniques; assesses use of diskettes, Bernoulli removable cartridge disks, CD-ROM, modems using dial-up phone lines, leased phone lines, satellites, and FM subcarriers. Sample data sizings are evaluated, and a cost model of electronic delivery costs is…

This report describes approaches to database translation (i.e., transferring data and data definitions from a source, either a database management system (DBMS) or a batch file, to a target DBMS), and recommends a method for representing the data structures of newly-proposed network and relational data models in a form suitable for database…

Offers a model for academic libraries that bases decisions on CD-ROM cataloging, circulating, and housing on three factors: type of data on a CD-ROM, who will use the data, and how they will use it. Four types of CD-ROMs are discussed: music, reference, data, and CD-ROMs that accompany other materials. (DGM)

Describes an approximate document ranking process that uses a compact array of in-memory, low-precision approximations for document length. Combined with another rule for reducing the memory required by partial similarity accumulators, the approximation heuristic allows the ranking of large document collections using less than one byte of memory…
