Scientific names are ambiguous as identifiers for biological taxa: their context and definition are required for accurate data integration (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kennedy, J., Kukla, R., & Paterson, T. (2005, July). Scientific names are ambiguous as identifiers for biological taxa: their context and definition are required for accurate data integration. Presented at Second International Workshop, DILS 2005, San Diego, CA, USA

Biologists use scientific names to label the organisms described in
their data; however, these names are not unique identifiers for taxonomic entities.
Alternative taxonomic classifications may apply the same name, associated
with alternative defi... Read More about Scientific names are ambiguous as identifiers for biological taxa: their context and definition are required for accurate data integration.

Peer-to-peer networks for scalable grid landscapes in social agent simulations. (2005)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Craenen, B. G. W., & Paechter, B. (2005, April). Peer-to-peer networks for scalable grid landscapes in social agent simulations. Presented at AISB’05 Convention Social Intelligence and Interaction in Animals, Robots and Agents, Hatfield, UK

Recently, peer-to-peer networks have been proposed as the underlying architecture of large scale distributed social agent simulations. A number of problems arise when grid landscapes are used to represent the landscape in these simulations, primarily...
