Approach and Preliminary Results for Early Growth Technology Analysis
(Cambridge, MA; Alfred P. Sloan School of Management, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009-09-15)
Even experts cannot be fully aware of all the promising developments in broad and complex fields of technology, such as renewable energy. Fortunately, there exist many diverse sources of information that report new ...
Comparison of Generality Based Algorithm Variants for Automatic Taxonomy Generation
(Cambridge, MA; Alfred P. Sloan School of Management, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009-09)
We compare a family of algorithms for the automatic generation of taxonomies by adapting the Heymannalgorithm in various ways. The core algorithm determines the generality of terms and iteratively inserts them in a growing ...
Experiences and Challenges with Using Cert Data to Analyze International Cyber Security
(Cambridge, MA; Alfred P. Sloan School of Management, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009-09)
With the increasing interconnection of computer networks and sophistication of cyber attacks, it is important to understand the dynamics of such situations, especially in regards to cyber international relations. The ...
Semantic Distances for Technology Landscape Visualization
(Cambridge, MA; Alfred P. Sloan School of Management, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008-08-25)
This paper presents a novel approach to the visualization
and subsequent elucidation of research domains in science and technology.
The proposed methodology is based on the use of bibliometrics; i.e.,
analysis is conducted ...
Latent Semantic Analysis Applied to Tech Mining
(Cambridge, MA; Alfred P. Sloan School of Management, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008-09-01)
This paper presents an approach to bibliometric analysis in the context of technology mining.
Bibliometric analysis refers to the use of publication database statistics, e.g., hit counts relevant to a
topic of interest. ...
Reconciling Protocol Mismatches of Web Services by Using Mediators
(Cambridge, MA; Alfred P. Sloan School of Management. Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2008-12-01)
In the era of Global Services, Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) has been gaining momentum for
building Web-based information systems. Service composition is one of the key objectives for adopting
SOA. Unfortunately, ...
Framework for the Analysis of the Adaptability, Extensibility, and Scalability of Semantic Information Integration and the Context Mediation Approach
(Cambridge, MA; Alfred P. Sloan School of Management, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009-01-01)
Technological advances such as Service Oriented
Architecture (SOA) have increased the feasibility and
importance of effectively integrating information from
an ever widening number of systems within and across
enterprises. ...
Reconciling Semantic Heterogeneity in Web Services Composition
(Cambridge, MA; Alfred P. Sloan School of Management, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009-09)
Service Oriented Computing (SOC) is a popular computing paradigm for the development of distributed Web applications. Service composition, a key element of SOC, is severely hampered by various types of semantic heterogeneity ...
The House of Security: Stakeholder Perceptions of Security Assessment and Importance
(2007-11-30)
In this paper we introduce a methodology for analyzing differences regarding security
perceptions within and between stakeholders, and the elements which affect these
perceptions. We have designed the “House of Security”, ...
Improving National and Homeland Security through a proposed Laboratory for Information Globalization and Harmonization Technologies (LIGHT)
(2004-11-30)
A recent National Research Council study found that: "Although there are many private and public databases that
contain information potentially relevant to counter terrorism programs, they lack the ...
