Od razvoja tehnologije veriženja blokov ter pristopov, kot so pametne pogodbe, je zanimanje za vključitev tovrstnih pristopov v obstoječe arhitekture računalništva v oblaku v vzponu. Pametne pogodbe so v splošnem porazdeljene aplikacije, ki omogočajo prenos digitalnih sredstev med pogodbenimi strankami po vnaprej dogovorjenih pogojih, so se izkazale kot obetavne zlasti zaradi transparentnega izvajanja med različnimi deležniki. S povečanjem algoritmičnih kompleksnosti funkcionalnosti, kot v našem primeru metoda za izvajanje sporazuma na ravni storitve v pametnih pogodbah, lahko postane vprašljiva smortnost izvedljivosti predvsem s stroškovnega stališča, zato je mogoče uporabiti sodoben pristop komunikacije pametnih pogodb z zunanjimi viri, ki ga imenujemo pametni preroki. Poenostavitev pametnih pogodb je mogoča, če del jedra funkcionalnosti ali algoritma izvajamo zunaj verige. V tem prispevku predlagamo novo metodo za izvajanje sporazuma na ravni storitve na pametni pogodbi s prenosom operacij z verige na namenske storitve zunaj verige z uporabo pametnih prerokov. Predlagana metoda dokazuje, da je mogoče zmanjšati skupne stroške izvajanja pametne pogodbe in hkrati izboljšuje raven distribucije rešitve.

Stock prediction has always been attractive area for researchers and investors since the financial gains can be substantial. However, stock prediction can be a challenging task since stocks are influenced by a multitude of factors whose influence vary rapidly through time. This paper proposes a novel approach (Word2Vec) for stock trend prediction combining NLP and Japanese candlesticks. First, we create a simple language of Japanese candlesticks from the source OHLC data. Then, sentences of words are used to train the NLP Word2Vec model where training data classification also takes into account trading commissions. Finally, the model is used to predict trading actions. The proposed approach was compared to three trading models Buy & Hold, MA and MACD according to the yield achieved. We first evaluated Word2Vec on three shares of Apple, Microsoft and Coca-Cola where it outperformed the comparative models. Next we evaluated Word2Vec on stocks from Russell Top 50 Index where our Word2Vec method was also very successful in test phase and only fall behind the Buy & Hold method in validation phase. Word2Vec achieved positive results in all scenarios while the average yields of MA and MACD were still lower compared to Word2Vec.

Na spletu je veliko podatkov, ki so objavljeni na različnih mestih v različnih, nezdružljivih oblikah. Zaradi tega nad njimi ne moremo izvajati poizvedb. Iskanje odgovora na specifično vprašanje ponavadi terja iskanje po ključnih besedah, branje in tolmačenje vsebine. To lahko rešimo tako, da uporabimo povezane podatke. Problem pri tem je dostopnost in učinkovitost poizvedovanja. V tem članku predstavimo obstoječo rešitev, ki omogoča poizvedovanje po povezanih podatkih tako, da je delo porazdeljeno med strežnikom in odjemalcem. Poleg tega predstavimo obstoječo razširitev, ki poveča učinkovitost in ne nazadnje našo lastno razširitev, s katero poskušamo učinkovitost še izboljšati. Našo razširitev primerjamo z že obstoječo razširitvijo in z osnovno različico omenjene rešitve.

Today, container-based virtualization is very popular due to the lightweight nature of containers and the ability to use them flexibly in various heterogeneously composed systems. This makes it possible to collaboratively develop services by sharing various types of resources, such as infrastructures, software and digitalized content. In this work, our home made video-conferencing (VC) system is used to study resource usage optimisation in business context. An application like this, does not provide monetization possibilities to all involved stakeholders including end users, cloud providers, software engineers and similar. Blockchain related technologies, such as Smart Contracts (SC) offer a possibility to address some of these needs. We introduce a novel architecture for monetization of added-value according to preferences of the stakeholders that participate in joint software service offers. The developed architecture facilitates use case scenarios of service and resource offers according to fixed and dynamic pricing schemes, fixed usage period, prepaid quota for flexible usage, division of income, consensual decisions among collaborative service providers, and constrained based usage of resources or services. Our container-based VC service, which is based on the Jitsi Meet Open Source software is used to demonstrate the proposed architecture and the benefits of the investigated use cases.

Stock prediction is a challenging and chaotic research area where many variables are included with their effects being complex to determine. Nevertheless, stock value prediction is still very appealing for researchers and investors since it might be profitable, yet the number of published research papers remains to be relatively small. The employment of advanced data analysis techniques has already been suggested by previous researches, such as the use of neural networks for stock price prediction, but practical implications of the the majority of approaches are limited as they are concerned mainly with a prediction accuracy and less with the success in real trading with consideration of trading fees. We propose a novel approach for stock trend prediction that combines Japanese candlesticks (OHLC trading data) and neural network based group of models Word2Vec. Word2Vec is usually utilized to produce word embeddings in natural language processing tasks, while we adopt it for acquiring semantic context of words in candlesticks’ sequence, where clustered candlesticks represent stock’s words. The approach is employed for the extraction of useful information from large sets of OHLC trading data to improve prediction accuracy. In evaluation of our approach we define a trading strategy and compare our approach with other popular prediction models – Buy & Hold, MA and MACD. The evaluation results on Russell Top 50 index are encouraging – the proposed Word2Vec approach outperformed all compared models on a test set with a statistical significance.

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the impact of cooperative principle on the information quality (IQ) by making objects more relevant for consumer needs, in particular case Wikipedia articles for students. Design/methodology/approach: The authors performed a quantitative study with participants being invited to complete an online survey. Each rater evaluated three selected and re-written articles from Wikipedia by four IQ dimensions (accuracy, completeness, objectivity, and representation). Grice’s maxims and submaxims were used to re-write articles and make them more relevant for student cognitive needs. The results were analyzed with statistical methods of mean, standard deviation, Cronbach’s α, and ICC (two-way random model of single measure). Findings: The study demonstrates that Wikipedia articles can be made more relevant for student needs by using cooperative principle with increase in IQ and also achieving higher consistency of students’ scores as recent research. In particular, students in the research perceived the abstract, constructed with cooperative principle, more objective and complete as reported in recent research. Practical implications: The work can benefit encyclopedia editors to improve IQ of existing articles as well as consumers that would obtain more relevant information in less reading time. Originality/value: This is one of the first attempts to empirically investigate the application of cooperate principle to make objects more relevant for consumer needs and impact of this on IQ. IQ improvement evidence is provided and impacts on IQ dimensions such as objectivity, completeness, accuracy, and representation for research community to validate and compare results.

Efficient data manipulation and retrieval is a fundamental part of many business processes in the majority of todays’ companies. SQL, as a standard, is widely adopted and well accepted in this area. Students who set out to learn SQL frequently face difficulties. The learning process is to some extent inefficient, as the student’s knowledge is afterwards often inadequate. Several computer-aided systems have been developed to alleviate the problem. However, most of them are static and rigid, because the system’s knowledge is encoded manually. We propose a new system based on past attempts and solutions to SQL exercises. The proposed system is flexible and dynamic, as it adapts to the individual student and requires minimal intervention from domain experts. We show that the system is beneficial, in particular to students with low prior knowledge.

Today’s software industry requires individuals who are proficient in as many programming languages as possible. Structured query language (SQL), as an adopted standard, is no exception, as it is the most widely used query language to retrieve and manipulate data. However, the process of learning SQL turns out to be challenging. The need for a computer-aided solution to help users learn SQL and improve their proficiency is vital. In this study, we present a new approach to help users conceptualize basic building blocks of the language faster and more efficiently. The adaptive design of the proposed approach aids users in learning SQL by supporting their own path to the solution and employing successful previous attempts, while not enforcing the ideal solution provided by the instructor. Furthermore, we perform an empirical evaluation with 93 participants and demonstrate that the employment of hints is successful, being especially beneficial for users with lower prior knowledge.

The prevalence of different kinds of electronic devices and the volume of content on the Web have increased the amount of plagiarism, which is considered an unethical act. If we want to be efficient in the detection and prevention of these acts, we have to improve today’s methods of discovering plagiarism. The paper presents a research study where a framework for the improved detection of plagiarism is proposed. The framework focuses on the integration of social network information, information from the Web, and an advanced semantically enriched visualization of information about authors and documents that enables the exploration of obtained data by seeking of advanced patterns of plagiarism. To support the proposed framework, a special software tool was also developed. The statistical evaluation confirmed that the employment of social network analysis and advanced visualization techniques led to improvements in the confirmation and investigation stages of the plagiarism detection process, thereby enhancing the overall efficiency of the plagiarism detection process.

Relational database to ontology mapping and ontology matching techniques are mostly addressed separately, even though it is known that the real power of semantic data lies in data interconnection. The latter is especially important when designing a new ontology, which often includes at least some of the concepts that already exist in the linked open data cloud. Thus, in this paper we describe a new end-to-end tool LogMap+ for transformation of relational data into an ontology and matching it against a pre-existent semantic source. Apart from offering the efficient web-based application, the main contributions are the improvements of the domain specific LogMap system. We evaluate our general tool against OAEI 2014 challenge datasets and achieve comparable results to the top performing algorithms and also outperform the domain specific LogMap tool.

Jezik SQL je danes standard na področju poizvedovanja in manipulacije s podatki. Večina podjetij aktivno uporablja jezik SQL za podporo delovanja informacijskih sistemov, zato so potrebe po usposabljanju velike. Sam proces učenja jezika SQL je težaven, saj pogosto prihaja do napačnega razumevanja temeljnih konceptov jezika. V okviru naše raziskave smo se lotili razvoja adaptivnega sistema za generiranje namigov kot pomoč pri procesu učenja. Sistema uporablja informacije iz zgodovinskih podatkov, iz preteklih poskusov reševanja nalog iz jezika SQL. Za odkrivanje znanja, skritega v podatkih, smo uporabili odločitvene procese Markova, ki omogočajo napovedovanje v negotovih razmerah. Poleg sistema smo razvili tudi komponento za procesiranje jezika SQL ter preprost spletni vmesnik. Preprosta evalvacija je pokazala, da je sistem zmožen generirati namige, prilagojene posameznemu študentu.

The traditional approach used to implement a business process (BP) in today’s information systems (IS) no longer covers the actual needs of the dynamically changing business. Therefore, a necessity for a new approach of dynamic business process (DBP) modelling and simulation has arisen. To date, existing approaches to DBP modelling and simulation have been incomplete, i.e. they lack theory or a case study or both. Furthermore, there is no commonly accepted definition of BDP. Current BP modelling tools are suitable almost solely for the modelling and simulation of a static BP that strictly prescribes which activities, and in which sequence, to execute. Usually, a DBP is not defined strictly at the beginning of its execution, and it changes under new conditions at runtime. In our paper, we propose six requirements of DBP and an approach for rule- and context-based DBP modelling and simulation. The approach is based on changing BP rules, BP actions and their sequences at process instance runtime, according to the new business system context. Based on the proposed approach, a reference architecture and prototype of a DBP simulation tool were developed. Modelling and simulation were carried out using this prototype, and the case study shows correspondence to the needs of dynamically changing business, as well as possibilities for modelling and simulating DBP.

This article will discuss on going research about Information Quality (IQ). Raters evaluating various IQ dimensions (accuracy, completeness, objectivity …) of same object showed low agreement level, therefore making IQ not measurable. Increase of IQ measurability to sufficient level would present an opportunity for guidelines to replace information of low with high quality. Speculations why IQ dimensions are not measurable have been made but at the same time mechanisms that improve agreement level have been proposed by researchers for validation. Moreover context in which information is being evaluated has not been yet addressed by existing research. This article will describe and explain a study that aims to create a robust model that will validate and measure effect of three different IQ aspects. Although this article is still work in progress, current results regarding research construction and preliminary testing will be presented as well as future steps.

Event-driven architecture and complex event processing have become important topics in achieving business reactivity and proactivity. Even though many technologies to support this have been developed, there is still a need for providing support for complex events based on different levels of required expressivity. On the other hand, semantic technologies and semantic-based systems have emerged and are becoming more and more used, whereas there is no recognized solution for event processing in information systems based on semantic technologies. In this paper, we address these issues. We present a framework for ontology-based support for complex events, which allows for semantically enriched event definitions and automatic recognition. In order to automatically recognize complex events, an appropriate event definition basis has to be defined. The paper represents a continuation of our previous work by enhancing this basis and developing a SPARQL-based framework to provide a richer mechanism for event definitions and more efficient event detection. As a proof-of-concept, we provide an implementation of this framework using the semantic integration platform - Information Workbench. The implementation is available as an app that runs on top of the Information Workbench platform.

Plagiarism is considered as an unethical act. Over the past few years its rate has increased considerably due to a widespread access to electronic documents on the Web. Existing tools for plagiarism detection are not efficient enough and if we want to successfully prevent these kind of acts we must improve today’s plagiarism detection approaches. The paper proposes a framework for improved detection of plagiarism, where we focus on integration of information from social networks, information from the Web and semantically enriched visualization of information about authors and plagiates. Visualization enables exploring data and seeking of advanced patterns of plagiarism. We also developed a special tool to support the proposed framework. The results of evaluation confirmed our hypothesis that employment of social network analysis and advanced visualization techniques improves plagiarism detection process.

One of the goals of every news publisher is to prolong users’ browsing sessions by convincing them to read additional content besides the initially requested. Consequently, most news publishers use recommendation engines to keep users engaged by recommending them content which they might like to read next. In this paper we present how to improve an existing news recommendation system deployed on the mobile news site of one of Zemanta’s partners. With this publisher the users are browsing news sequentially by scrolling through a continuous stream of items on their mobile devices. Our goal is to order the recommended items in a way to increase probability that the users will click one them and read them. The existing system orders the recommendations by similarity to the article that the user is currently reading. We build on top of the content-similarity approach by also estimating the probability that the recommended item will be clicked. We use click-through data, and take a Bayesian approach to estimate the probability of a click; moreover, we propose the use of hierarchical models as a way of including data from contextually similar sessions into the estimation. The recommendations are performed using a multi-armed bandit approach. We try to find a trade-off between “exploitation” of items likely to perform well and “exploration” of items where not much data is available. When evaluated on data collected from a mobile news publisher, the proposed methods showed significant improvements compared to the existing system.

Due to numerous public information sources and services, many methods to combine heterogeneous data were proposed recently. However, general end-to-end solutions are still rare, especially systems taking into account different context dimensions. Therefore, the techniques often prove insufficient or are limited to a certain domain. In this paper we briefly review and rigorously evaluate a general framework for data matching and merging. The framework employs collective entity resolution and redundancy elimination using three dimensions of context types. In order to achieve domain independent results, data is enriched with semantics and trust. However, the main contribution of the paper is evaluation on five public domain-incompatible datasets. Furthermore, we introduce additional attribute, relationship, semantic and trust metrics, which allow complete framework management. Besides overall results improvement within the framework, metrics could be of independent interest.

There are several data silos containing information about business entities and people but are not semantically connected. If in integration process of data sources trust management is also employed than we can expect much higher success rate in relations discovery among entities. Majority of current mash-up approaches that deal with integration of information from several data sources omit or don’t fully address the aspect of trust. In this paper we discuss semantic integration of personal and business information from various data sources coupled with trust layer. The resulting system has higher and more defined solidity while trust for single entity and also for data source is defined. The case study presented in the paper focuses on integration of personal information from data sources mainly maintained by government authorities who have higher trustability than information from social networks, but we also include other less trusted sources. The developed SocioLeaks system allows users traversal and further relation discovery in a graph based manner.

The lack of rapid approaches in ontology development led us to define Rapid Ontology Development (ROD) approach. The following approach includes the development process and constant evaluation of the steps in the process. The ROD approach was then applied to development of Financial Instruments and Trading Strategies (FITS) ontology. We pointed out that ontology development process does not conclude with successful definition of schematic part of ontology, but that developers should continue with post development activities where additional axiomatic information and instances with dynamic imports from various sources are defined. The result is executable ontology as part of Semantic Web application that can employ data from several data sources. The overall process of ontology development presented in this paper is suitable for users without extensive technical and programming skills.

In this paper rapid ontology development with emphasis on facilitating development with constant evaluation of steps in the process of ontology development is presented. The review of related work pointed out that existing methodologies for ontology development are complex and high level of technical knowledge is required. Business users and developers usually don’t pose such knowledge therefore ontology completeness indicator was introduced in this approach. The role of this indicator is to guide developer throughout the development process and constantly aid user with recommendations to progress to next step and improve the quality of ontology. While evaluating the ontology, several aspects are considered; from description, partition, consistency, redundancy and to anomaly. The approach was verified on Financial Instruments and Trading Strategies (FITS) ontology and compared to other approaches.

Traditional information extraction (IE) tasks roughly consist of named-entity recognition, relation extraction and coreference resolution. Much work in this area focuses primarily on separate subtasks where best performance can be achieved only on specialized domains. In this paper we present a collective IE approach combining all three tasks by employing linear-chain conditional random fields. The usage of probabilistic models enables us to easily communicate between tasks on the fly and error correction during the iterative process execution. We introduce a novel iterative-based IE system architecture with additional semantic and collective feature functions. Proposed system is evaluated against real-world data set, introduced in the paper, and results are better over traditional approaches on two tested tasks by error reduction and performance improvements.

V zadnjih letih so postala omrežja izjemno popularna, saj predstavljajo močno orodje za predstavitev in analizo kompleksnih sistemov, sestavljenih iz velikega števila med seboj povezanih komponent. Takšne sisteme najdemo tako v realnem kot navideznem svetu, v naravi in tehnologiji, in so trenutno predmet številnih analiz in študij. Teorija omrežij je v preteklosti ponudila že številna pomembna spoznanja kot na primer fenomen majhnega sveta, odpornost tehnoloških omrežij in obstoj komun v socialnih omrežjih. Poleg slednjega pa je omogočila razlago različnih dinamičnih procesov kot na primer gibanje ljudi v družbi, navigacija po svetovnem spletu ali pa nadzor v kompleksnih bioloških sistemih. Primere analize omrežij tako najdemo v biologiji, družbenih znanostih, ekonomiji, računalništvu in informatiki, ter še na številnih drugih področjih. Kljub zgornjemu pa je uporaba teorije omrežij še vedno v veliki meri omejena zgolj na akademske kroge. V prispevku zato predstavimo osnovne lastnosti velikih omrežij ter podamo nekatere zanimivejše primere uporabe.

Kratica NOSQL pomeni “Not Only SQL” in se jo pogosto povezuje z novo skupino podatkovnih baz, ki so se pojavile kot odgovor na težave, s katerimi se srečujemo pri uporabi relacijski baz podatkov. Za NOSQL podatkovne baze je težko podati natančno opredelitev, lahko pa trdimo, da zanje veljajo naslednje pomembne lastnosti: nimajo opredeljene sheme, prožnost, drobljenje, asinhrona replikacija, BASE pristop namesto ACID in arhitektura brez skupne rabe. Podatkovne baze NOSQL ne predstavljajo najboljše rešitve za reševanje vsakdanjih problemov povezanimi z upravljanjem s podatki. Nastale so na podlagi zahtev po visokih učinkovitosti in skalabilnosti v okolju kakršno je svetovni splet. Testirali smo več vrst NOSQL podatkovnih baz, ki se med seboj razlikujejo glede na namen uporabe. Za izbrane scenarije smo primerjali zmogljivosti ključvrednost podatkovne baze, podatkovne baze tipa razširljiv zapis in dokumentno usmerjene podatkovne baze. Rezultate smo primerjali tudi z zmogljivostmi klasične relacijske podatkovne baze MySQL. Na podlagi ugotovitev smo podali priporočila kdaj je smiselno uporabiti katero izmed naštetih rešitev.

Current practice of backing up data is based on using backup tapes and remote locations for storing data. Nowadays, with the advent of cloud computing a new concept of database backup emerges. The paper presents the possibility of making backup copies of data in the cloud. We are mainly focused on performance and economic issues of making backups in the cloud in comparison to traditional backups. We tested the performance and overall costs of making backup copies of data in Oracle database using Amazon S3 and EC2 cloud services. The costs estimation was performed on the basis of the prices published on Amazon S3 and Amazon EC2 sites.

Matching and merging of data from heterogeneous sources is a common need in various scenarios. Despite numerous algorithms proposed in the recent literature, there is a lack of general and complete solutions combining different dimensions arising during the matching and merging execution. We propose a general framework, and accompanying algorithms, that allow joint control over various dimensions of matching and merging. To achieve superior performance, standard (relational) data representation is enriched with semantics and thus elevated towards the real world situation. Data sources are merged using collective entity resolution and redundancy elimination algorithms that are managed through the use of different contexts – user, data and also trust contexts. Introduction of trust allows for an adequate trust management and efficient security assurance which is, besides a general solution for matching and merging, the main novelty of the proposition.

Due to complexity of existing methodologies for ontology development we propose facilitating ontology development with continuous evaluation of steps in the process of ontology development. The approach is called Rapid Ontology Development (ROD) and is based on completeness indicator that helps guiding developer by constant evaluation of ontology and producing recommendations to progress to next step and improve the quality of ontology. The applicability of the approach is demonstrated on Financial Instruments and Trading Strategies (FITS) ontology. The main contribution of the paper is the suggested approach for rapid development of ontologies which brings ontology modeling closer to business users as it does not require from users to know any formal syntax.

The increasing amount of information and the absence of an effective tool for assisting users with minimal technical knowledge lead us to use associative thinking paradigm for implementation of a software solution - Panorama. In this study, we present object recognition process, based on context + focus information visualization techniques, as a foundation for realization of Panorama. We show that user can easily define data vocabulary of selected domain that is furthermore used as the application framework. The purpose of Panorama approach is to facilitate software development of certain problem domains by shortening the Software Development Life Cycle with minimizing the impact of implementation, review and maintenance phase. Our approach is focused on using and updating data vocabulary by users without extensive programming skills. Panorama therefore facilitates traversing through data by following associations where user does not need to be familiar with the query language, the data structure and does not need to know the problem domain fully. Our approach has been verified by detailed comparison to existing approaches and in an experiment by implementing selected use cases. The results confirmed that Panorama fits problem domains with emphasis on data oriented rather than ones with process oriented aspects. In such cases the development of selected problem domains is shortened up to 25%, where emphasis is mainly on analysis, logical design and testing, while omitting physical design and programming, which is performed automatically by Panorama tool.

Abstract For some decision processes a significant added value is achieved when enterprises? internal Data Warehouse (DW) can be integrated and combined with external data gained from web sites of competitors and other relevant Web sources. In this paper we discuss the agent?based integration approach using ontologies (DSS?MAS). In this approach data from internal DW and external sources are scanned by coordinated group of agents, while semantically integrated and relevant data is reported to business users according to business rules. After data from internal DW, Web sources and business rules are acquired, agents using these data and rules can infer new knowledge and therefore facilitate decision making process. Knowledge represented in enterprises? ontologies is acquired from business users without extensive technical knowledge using user friendly user interface based on constraints and predefined templates. The approach presented in the paper was verified using the case study from the domain of mobile communications with the emphasis on supply and demand of mobile phones.

Business decisions must rely not only on organisation’s internal data but also on external data from competitors or relevant events. This information can be obtained from the Web but must be integrated with the data in an organisation’s Data Warehouse (DW). In this paper we discuss the agent-based integration approach using ontologies. To enable common understanding of a domain between people and application systems we introduce business rules approach towards ontology management. Because knowledge in organisation’s ontologies is acquired from business users without technical knowledge simple user interface based on ontology restrictions and predefined templates are used. After data from internal DW, Web and business rules are acquired; agent can deduce new knowledge and therefore facilitate decision making process. Tasks like information retrieval from competitors, creating and reviewing OLAP reports are autonomously performed by agents, while business users have control over their execution through knowledge base in ontology. The approach presented in the paper was verified on the case study from the domain of mobile communications with the emphasis on supply and demand of mobile phones and its accessories.

Ontologies as means for knowledge manipulation in IT have gained its popularity in recent years. The scenarios of successful implementation can mainly be found in the World Wide Web domain and within academia while there are only a few in business environment. This paper introduces Rapid Ontologfy Development model and accompanying intelliOnto support tool to facilitate ontology construction for inclusion in business applications. Emphasis is given to simplification of the development process of functional components by bridging the gap between formal syntax of captured knowledge and acquisition of knowledge in semi formal way. Verification of the model will be presented with running examples from the domain of financial portfolio management and organisation of a rent-a-car etc.

Decision Support in enterprises is gaining its importance in the age of Internet and e-business. While dealing with the need for fast response in the dynamic competitive environments and rapid increase of information available on various networks we propose Multi-Agent System approach to backend Decision Support. Research case study presented in the paper is from the domain of mobile communications with system’s main goal of delivering right information at the right time to the right users. We integrate several BI systems such as Data Mining and Data Warehousing with information available on the Internet. Ontologies are used to store derived knowledge, to support knowledge exchange between our MAS and other systems, to support agent-to-agent communication and enable seamless extending of MAS capabilities.

Paradigma mobilnosti programske kode in inteligentnih agentov sta se zdruţili pri mobilnih agentih. Mobilni agenti so aktivne entitete, ki se selijo iz enega izvajalnega okolja v drugega, pri tem pa srečujejo druge agente, uporabljajo storitve in vire, ki so tam na voljo, medtem ko za poslovnega uporabnika izvršujejo določeno nalogo. Zaenkrat so še vedno bolj v domeni raziskovalnih krogov, kljub temu pa so obeti uporabe tega pristopa pri razvoju programske opreme veliki. Z razvojem kvalitetnih in zanesljivih platform, ki omogočajo implementacijo mobilnih agentov, se je zanimanje zanje zelo povečalo. Njihova uporabnost in prednosti pa se izkaţejo predvsem pri večjih omreţnih sistemih in internetu. Študija primera razvoja mobilnega agenta, ki ga prispevek predstavlja, je s področja poslovnega obveščanja, zdruţuje pa koncept mobilnih agentov in koncept mobilnega uporabnika.

Jeziki za predstavitev pravil imajo čedalje pomembnejšo vlogo pri uveljavljanju semantičnega spleta. Po eni strani pravila omogočajo zapis deklarativnega znanja pri jezikih za predstavitev ontologij in izražajo omejitve ali pretvorbe, ki so povezane z opisno logiko. Po drugi strani pa lahko s pravili opredelimo uveljavljanje politik, odzivanje na spremembe, specifikacijo delovanja inteligentnih agentov in jih uporabimo še za številne druge namene. Jeziki za predstavitev pravil bodo tako igrali ključno vlogo, saj bodo kot lingua franca za izmenjavo pravil med različnimi sistemi in orodji ter bodo omogočali razvijanje, izvajanje, objavljanje in medsebojno komunikacijo pravil na semantičnem spletu. V članku je predstavljeno ogrodje za predstavitev znanja na semantičnem spletu, kjer je poudarek na integraciji ontologij in pravil. Povezovanje je izpeljano s pomočjo pretvornikov, saj trenutno ni podpore za izvajanje pravil v obliki SWRL, ki je eden najobetavnejših predlogov pravil na semantičnem spletu.

Semantično strukturiranje, ki ga dosežemo z uporabo ontologij, se razlikuje od površinskega oblikovanja informacij, ki nam jih nudijo relacijske in XML podatkovne baze, saj mora biti pri podatkovnih bazah večina semantične vsebine zajete v uporabniških programih. Ontologije predstavljajo objektivno specifikacijo informacij za določeno domeno, kjer s predstavitvijo konceptov in medsebojnih relacij prikažemo znanje. Ta specifikacija je prvi korak pri gradnji naprednejših informacijskih sistemov, ki temeljijo na souporabi obstoječega znanja. V prispevku prikažemo stopnjo inteligence, ki so jo podatki skozi čas pridobivali, se ustavimo ter podrobneje opišemo najvišjo raven, ontologije in avtomatsko sklepanje. Predstavljen je opredelitev ontologij s filozofskega stališča in uporaba na področju računalništva in informatike, kjer omenimo jezike za opis in predstavitev ontologij.
