A group-based semantic search method - GBSS is introduced to improve the efficiency and scalability of search in P2P systems. GBSS introduces a hybrid architecture in which the storage and search of raw data is based on DHT network, but the storage and search of meta-data are based on unstructured P2P network. With regard to search algorithm, GBSS introduces a new file grouping method requiring no users' descriptions and constructs friend group relations between nodes based on interest similarity between file groups. The forwarding of users' requests makes use of friend group relations. Simulation tests show that compared with traditional flooding algorithms, GBSS is both efficient and scalable

This paper addresses a dynamic lot-sizing model with outsourcing. All the unsatisfied demands are out-sourced without backlogging, where the inventory capacity is limited and shortages are prohibited. Costs are concave and time varying. Some new properties are obtained in an optimal solution and a dynamic programming algorithm is developed to solve the problem in strongly polynomial time

Currently, much efforts have being focused on dynamic, personalized QoS-based service selection, however, current QoS models are generally composed of static QoS parameters and haven't taken the dynamic nature of service performance into consideration. In our framework, we extend existing QoS model by adding new attributes that reflect performance of services and rely on ANN to provide client dynamic, on demand service performance prediction. Through this way, a client may be more capable of finding the best service based both on his/her preferences and on the service performance estimation

Business process management (BPM) is the approach to manage the execution of IT-supported business operations from a business expert's view rather than from a technical perspective. However, the degree of mechanization in BPM is still very limited, creating inertia in the necessary evolution and dynamics of business processes, and BPM does not provide a truly unified view on the process space of an organization. We trace back the problem of mechanization of BPM to an ontological one, i.e. the lack of machine-accessible semantics, and argue that the modeling constructs of semantic Web services frameworks, especially WSMO, are a natural fit to creating such a representation. As a consequence, we propose to combine SWS and BPM and create one consolidated technology, which we call semantic business process management (SBPM)

Introducing micro-payment mechanism into P2P systems will bring economic incentives to various P2P applications and encourage peers to share their resources. In this paper, we present a new micro-payment protocol, CPay, which exploits unique characteristics of P2P systems. The protocol establishes dynamic consistent hashing map between the set of all peers in the system and its subset of high performance peers. In each transaction, the payer's corresponding high performance peer checks the transaction to make sure that any illegal use of the e-coin would be timely detected. The protocol effectively exploits the heterogeneity of the P2P system and can achieve load balance

Optimization of execution plans in information mediators is a critical task, especially when sources are remote and semistructured, as in the case of transactional Web sites. Lack of quality of service in HTTP connections does not ease the measurement of the mediated query performance. Different solutions based on relational and hierarchical optimization techniques have been proposed, mainly in terms of time and space. This article integrates some of these techniques by using a specialized cost repository but, more importantly, defines a physical layer optimization cost model by means of a configurable pool of browsers, which improves dramatically query execution time in Web mediators

Component business modeling (CBM) is an aggregation of models, methods and techniques that are designed to organize, understand, evaluate, and ultimately, transform an enterprise. The decomposition of an enterprise into well bounded and discrete business components enables a straightforward understanding of a complex enterprise and facilitates the realization of business intent by information technology. This paper examines the use of CBM within the government sector. At more than twice the size of the world's largest commercial enterprise, the Business Management Modernization Program (BMMP) of the Department of Defense (DoD) is undertaking a dramatic and complex business transformation. Our team proposed the use of CBM to address their objectives. We first discuss how business components (referred to as business capabilities by the DoD) is used to leverage the enterprise architecture, to analyze business transformation opportunities, and to identify business services. We then describe how the results of CBM can be used to refine a service oriented view of the business

The production process of a refinery is a complicated process, which consists of immense units. For some units, the products are multiple, so does the feasible operation mode of products of certain units. Which kind of operation mode is utilized decides the production strategy of a refinery. In this paper, how to gain reasonable production strategy is focused on due to the immense benefit it can bring to, and a production strategy optimization model based on mixed bi-level programming method is presented to solve this problem. All the units included in the production process are divided into two levels, and most of the production information of them is integrated by a database system in the model. How the optimization model can be used as a viable tool is also showed by a simple case study at Daqing refinery

One of the most significant changes in the practice of marketing during the last decade is the shift in emphasis from a transaction orientation customer interaction to the customer relationship management (CRM). However, in large organizations, it is not very easy to collect, collate, and transform the customer data necessary for creating systems to support customer relationship management as the basis of the enterprise-wide customer relationship strategy. There are many reasons for this difficulty, including organizational structure and the resulting complexity in the enterprise systems. In this paper, we use the example of Cisco Systems Inc. to demonstrate how to build an effective customer relationship management system that integrates with the organization processes to help an enterprise recognize more targeted market. The new CRM system helps Cisco integrate all customers' data in a single data repository to support quantifiable and measurable needs of `knowledge marketing' functions. It led to new marketing processes that are more effective and efficient. The experience in Cisco allows us to identify successful design practices and develop recommendations for organizations that are interested in deploying a similar system
