OntoStudyEdit: a new approach for ontology-based representation and management of Metadata in clinical and epidemiological research.
Journal of biomedical semantics, 2015Co-Authors: Alexandr Uciteli, Heinrich HerreAbstract:Background The specification of Metadata in clinical and epidemiological study projects absorbs significant expense. The validity and quality of the collected data depend heavily on the precise and semantical correct representation of their Metadata. In various research organizations, which are planning and coordinating studies, the required Metadata are specified differently, depending on many conditions, e.g., on the used study management software. The latter does not always meet the needs of a particular research organization, e.g., with respect to the Relevant Metadata attributes and structuring possibilities.

Management of evolving semantic grid Metadata within a collaborative platform
Information Sciences, 2010Co-Authors: Michael Hartung, Frank Loebe, Heinrich Herre, Erhard RahmAbstract:Grid environments, providing distributed infrastructures, computing resources and data storage, usually show a high degree of heterogeneity and change in their Metadata. We propose a platform for collaborative management and maintenance of common Metadata for grids. As the conceptual foundation of this platform, a meta model is presented which distinguishes structured descriptions and classification structures that both are modifiable. On this basis, the system allows for the creation and editing of grid Relevant Metadata and provides various search and navigation facilities for grid participants. We applied the platform to the German D-Grid initiative by establishing the D-Grid Ontology (DGO).

carbon domain independent automatic web form filling
International Conference on Web Engineering, 2010Co-Authors: Samur Araujo, Qi Gao, Erwin Leonardi, Geertjan HoubenAbstract:Web forms are the main input mechanism for users to supply data to web applications. Users fill out forms in order to, for example, sign up to social network applications or do advanced searches in search-based web applications. This process is highly repetitive and can be optimized by reusing the user's data across web forms. In this paper, we present a novel framework for domainindependent automatic form filling. The main task is to automatically fill out a correct value for each field in a new form, based on web forms the user has previously filled. The key innovation of our approach is that we are able to extract Relevant Metadata from the previously filled forms, semantically enrich it, and use it for aligning fields between web forms.

soil and informatics science combine to develop s map a new generation soil information system for new zealand
Geoderma, 2012Co-Authors: Linda Lilburne, Allan Hewitt, T W WebbAbstract:Abstract Upgrading from a traditional soil spatial database, consisting of a single GIS layer of polygons and basic attributes, to a modern soil information system has required significant informatics resourcing. This paper describes the design criteria of New Zealand's new soil mapping system, and the IT infrastructure required for its support. The hybrid design incorporates both traditional soil survey techniques and data, and newer digital soil mapping techniques and information, to (eventually) achieve full coverage of New Zealand at 1:50 000 scale. Full advantage has been taken of recent advances in informatics science in the area of integrated database tools, modelling, remote sensing and web technologies. A number of in-house modules have been developed for functionality including: 1. Data entry, storage and validation of soil data and photos 2. Dynamic generation of spatial data, maps and factsheets highly customised for a range of end-users 3. Automated generation of Relevant Metadata reports 4. Running pedo-transfer functions (PTFs) and other digital soil mapping operations 5. Managing and simulating soil uncertainty information
