To predict the market trends, to improve enterprise performance, and for the smarter business outcomes, Business intelligence (BI) "an integrated set of tools, technologies and programmed products that are used to collect, integrate, analyze and make data available", become the basic need for the businesses. Due Economic, technological and human resource constraints, the SMEs are not able to achieve the benefits of BI. In this paper we proposes, firstly Bl-in-Cloud computing Model for SMEs, to meet their goals for profitability, revenue, cost reduction, and risk management, Secondly the regional telecom operator as Bl-in-Cloud platform and Service provider, under the supervision of regulatory authorities, with the support of government and concerned bodies.

Cloud computing is one of the highly researched areas today, with an objective of taking advantage of various computational resources. In this paper we have used cloud computing environment with the aim to speed up the matching process of biometric traits. We have used iris recognition, a biometric technique, as it is one of the strongest method of authentication. Also Iris recognition is stable over time. We have used Hadoop [1], an open source cloud computing environment, to develop this model. Hadoop implements Map/Reduce [1] framework in Java. Map/Reduce make easy to process large amount of data on cloud. The results shows that there is an effective speedup and efficiency gain of Iris template matching on Hadoop process over sequential process.

The widespread popularity of Cloud computing as a preferred platform for the deployment of web applications has resulted in an enormous number of applications moving to the cloud, and the huge success of cloud service providers. The data center storage management plays a vital role in cloud computing environments. Especially the PC cluster-based data storage is necessary to manage data on low cost storage servers in which storage space can be reduced. This system presents an efficient data storage approach to work out many nodes in a cluster using Cloud-based Distributed File System (CDFS) compatible file system with variable chunk size to facilitate massive data processing. This system introduces the implementation enhancement on MapReduce to improve the system throughput and the scalability to keep on working with the amount of existing physical storage capacity when the number of users and files increase. Then CDFS also reduces the storage space in the storage server using Huffman Compression.

The Open Source Software (OSS) management has attracted considerable attention in the last few years. Project management for effective software process improvement must be achieved based on quantitative data. However, because data collection for measurement requires high costs and collaboration with developers, and data dumps may require a huge effort to understand schemas and tables. It is difficult to collect coherent, quantitative data continuously and to utilize the data for practicing software process improvement. In this paper, we report our results of mining data acquired from SourceForge.net, the largest open source software hosting website. In the process we describe Mailing list Crawler (MC) which automatically collects Mailing lists repositories in widely used software development support systems. Providing integrated measurement results graphically, MC can help developers/managers keep projects under control in real time.

Mutual information (MI) is always used as the indicator of nonlinear correlation between the variables. The computation of MI can be finished only the continuous-value variables are discretized. In this paper, one new strategy of computing the MI between variables is proposed. The probability density estimation (PDE) is used to determine the density functions in our method. An approximate technology is applied to replace the computation of integral. Finally, MI based on PDE can be obtained. Through the artificially experimental simulations, the performance and rationality of our new method are demonstrated. The experimental results show that our method is feasible, effective and efficient.

When we take cognizance of the regular track of moving objects within a limited area, we put forward an improved moving objects indexing model in mobile computing environment based on Time-Parameterized R-tree (GG TPR-tree). With the GG TPR-tree, we can index moving objects which are neighbors and will run to the same direction in the future to improve the efficiency. So, we put forward the indexing model for the moving objects, and moving objects indexing maintenance algorithm and moving objects indexing update algorithm. Experimental results show that the performance of GG TPR-tree's indexing moving inexing is better than the other indexing model on managing a great capacity of moving objects within a limited area.

Cloud computing can reduce mainframe management costs, so more and more users choose to build their own cloud hosting environment. In cloud computing, all the commands through the network connection, therefore, information security is particularly important. In this paper, we will explore the types of intrusion detection systems, and integration of these types, provided an effective and output reports, so system administrators can understand the attacks and damage quickly. With the popularity of cloud computing, intrusion detection system log files are also increasing rapidly, the effect is limited and inefficient by using the conventional analysis system. In this paper, we use Hadoop's MapReduce algorithm analysis of intrusion detection System log files, the experimental results also confirmed that the calculation speed can be increased by about 89%. For the system administrator, IDS Log Cloud Analysis System (called ICAS) can provide fast and high reliability of the system.

This paper proposes and evaluates a new semantics based segmentation algorithm for scene images. This algorithm has two phases: the initial segmentation based on color-spatial information and region merging based semantics information. The initial segmentation uses an automatic region growth method without the need of seeds. It avoids the loss of detailed color information of the scene images by using non-quantized colors in region growth. This paper also innovatively includes the underlying semantics of the scene images during the region merging. The experiments show the new segmentation algorithm is very efficient and effective and could get a very accurate segmentation for scene images. The main regions also match well to people's visual perception.

The inverted pendulum is a kind of system with multi-variables, non-linearity, strong coupling and instinct instability, for which efficient and effective control strategies are needed to keep the pendulum stable at the position of dynamic balance. This paper applies memetic algorithm (MA) to obtain the optimal parameter settings for the LQR controller for the inverted pendulum system. By contrast with the results of the traditional LQR controlling system, a conclusion could be drawn that MA performs better in terms of effectiveness.

Current question answering (QA) systems usually contain named entity recognizer (NER) as a core component. NER is an important and difficult task in computational linguistics. It plays an important role in natural language processing application such as Question Answering, Machine Translation, and Information Retrieval etc. NER includes the identification and classification of certain proper nouns (like location, organization, person, data, money and others) in a text. The purpose of our study is to recognize and extract the exact Japanese sightseeing domain named entities. It is a basic step for the following processing: question analysis and keyword extraction information retrieval. As well as, through doing the named entity recognition, we consider that it can mine exact information from text document to respond to user. This paper describes how to do the Japanese sightseeing named entity recognition due to we are constructing a Japanese sightseeing question answering system. We adopt the hybrid method which combined with machine learning and rule-base method. In the experiment of Japanese sightseeing domain named entity recognition we have got excellent precision and recalling rates. It shows that our method is effective and can be used in a practical question answering system.
