A method for automating the extraction of specialized information from the web (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Lin, L., Liotta, A., & Hippisley, A. (2005). A method for automating the extraction of specialized information from the web. In Computational Intelligence and Security International Conference, CIS 2005, Xi’an, China, December 15-19, 2005, Proceedings

The World Wide Web can be viewed as a gigantic distributed database including millions of interconnected hosts some of which publish information via web servers or peer-to-peer systems. We present here a novel method for the extraction of semanticall... Read More about A method for automating the extraction of specialized information from the web.

Adaptive content for the mobile user: A policy-based approach (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Yew, A., Liotta, A., & Yang, K. (2005). Adaptive content for the mobile user: A policy-based approach. In Mobility Aware Technologies and Applications: Second International Workshop, MATA 2005, Montreal, Canada, October 17-19, 2005. Proceedings (137-148)

Service adaptation is fundamental to context-aware service provisioning and to the realization of the Virtual Home Environment concept, which is now an integral part of the 3G service framework. Although the technological means for developing advance... Read More about Adaptive content for the mobile user: A policy-based approach.

An adaptive clustering approach for the management of dynamic systems (2005)
Journal Article
Ragusa, C., Liotta, A., & Pavlou, G. (2005). An adaptive clustering approach for the management of dynamic systems. IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communications, 23(12), 2223-2235. https://doi.org/10.1109/JSAC.2005.857203

Adaptive clustering is one of the fundamental problems behind autonomic systems and, more generally, an open research issue in the area of networking and distributed systems. The problem of giving structure to large-scale, dynamic systems through clu... Read More about An adaptive clustering approach for the management of dynamic systems.

Composition of context-aware services using policies and models (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
