The exam is open notes and books without sharing so no computer/Internet access. They will write on plain paper. Actually, they could bring in the textbook Yu and if they have other books and papers. They won't be able to find a ready answer anywhere, perhaps they'd like docs to check up on an idea or to refresh their knowledge on a specific topic. Obviously, there will not be enough time in the exam to write long texts or to study the questions from books during the exam! So, books and papers won't be much use if one does not study beforehand.
Thank you again for your intermediation and helping to administer the exam.

Dear Sir,
Students taking CMPE 583 have learned that I will be invigilating their exam and because they are not able to reach you some of them have asked me if they may bring laptop computers with them to use in the exam?, because the exam is open notes. I have told them that I can answer this question only after getting a reply from the you. Can you please let me know what they may bring with them when they come to exam?
Kind Regards,

Well, you'll recall me suggesting to hold the exam tomorrow, Tuesday 11 Dec at 4:30. It seems this may not be too suitable for some of you and I'm approached for a change of date. I had told you that I would be away Thursday-Friday this week and if you don't mind having the exam in my absence I propose to hold it on Friday the 14th December during class hours.
I will probably need additional time to cover course material so we can get together during the following weeks instead of this Friday.
If there is no objection, we're having the exam on Friday at 8:30. This is open books and papers but no borrowing of material during the exam. I will prepare and leave the question sheets and I'll tell you who's coming to invigilate.
Hi,
Last night there was a virtual conference where Mark Musen of Stanford
introduced their new initiative. The BioPortal is the tool they developed
and fostering as a means to establish a quality assurance approach to
biomedical ontology evolution. We're not too concerned with biomedicine but
the tool is for ontology editing, visualization, annotation, and sourcing so
it may be better if you took a look at the presentation.
Do visit the conference page at Ontolog. Abstract and speaker bios are
there. And at the bottom of the page, you'll find the PPT file of the slides
and, currently not there but it will be inserted, the recorded version of
the talk. you can listen to the talk and simultaneously watch the slides.
Presentation is about 1 hour and there were Q&A for almost another hour at
the end.
Greetings,
Have a good day. / Iyi gunler dilerim.

Journal News
Over the last decade, it has become clear that empirical studies are a fundamental component of software engineering research and practice: Software development practices and technologies must be investigated by empirical means in order to be understood, evaluated, and deployed in proper contexts. This stems from the observation that higher software quality and productivity have more chances to be achieved if well-understood, tested practices and technologies are introduced in software development.

Subject: Call for Papers - 2008 IEEE International Conference on Services
Computing (SCC 2008)
2008 IEEE International Conference on Services Computing (SCC 2008)
===================================================================
Services: Business, Technology, and Application
Celebrating the 2008 IEEE Congress on Services!
http://conferences.computer.org/scc/2008
July 8-11, 2008, Hawaii, USA
Sponsored by IEEE Computer Society
Technical Committee on Services Computing (tab.computer.org/tcsc)
Services now account for more than half of the U.S. economy. Services
Computing, as a new cross discipline, addresses how to enable IT technology
to help people perform business services more efficiently and effectively.
Building on its great success in 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, the 2008 IEEE
International Conference on Services Computing (SCC 2008) continues to
bridge the gap between Services Computing and Business models with an
emerging suite of ground-breaking technology that includes service-oriented
architecture (SOA), business process integration and management, services
engineering and grid/utility computing, and Web 2.0. The theme of SCC 2008
is "Services: Business, Technology, and Application". From technology
foundation perspective, Services Computing has become the default discipline
in the modern services industry.
SCC 2008 will be co-located with and strategically part of the 2008 IEEE
Congress on Services (SERVICES 2008) (Part A: Hawaii) to explore "Services"
(Science and Technology), which has been formally promoted by IEEE Computer
Society since 2003! IEEE Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) Industry
Summit, IEEE International Services Computing Contest, IEEE SOA Standards
Symposium, IEEE Services Computing Workshops, Services University, and IEEE
Services Computing Ph.D. Student Symposium will be featured at this joint
event in Hawaii, USA.
Services Computing, as a new cross discipline, addresses how to enable IT
and computing technology to help people perform business processes,
services, and applications more efficiently and effectively. At the core of
a business model is a set of processes that jointly help yield a profit in
an organization. As we can see, Services Computing currently shapes the
thinking of business modeling, business consulting, solution creation,
service delivery, and software architecture design, development and
deployment. The global nature of Services Computing leads to many
opportunities and few challenges and creates a new networked economic
structure for supporting different business models. SCC 2008 has the
following major research tracks: Foundations of Services Computing,
Services- Centric Business Models, Business Process Management and
Integration, and SOA Tools, Solutions and Services.
SCC 2008 is sponsored by the IEEE Computer Society Technical Committee on
Services Computing. SCC 2004 was held in Shanghai, China, September 15-18,
2004 . SCC 2005 was co-located with ICWS 2005 on July 11-15, 2005 in
Orlando, Florida, USA. SCC 2006 was co-located with ICWS 2006 on September
18-22, 2006 in Chicago, Illinois, USA.
SCC 2007 was co-located with ICWS 2007 on July 9-13, 2007 in Salt Lake City,
Utah, USA. The SCC Proceedings has been included in EI Compendex.
SCC 2008 will concentrate on the science and technology of Business/
Application Services and the bridging technologies such as Business Strategy
and Design, Business Process Integration and Management, Grid and Utility
Computing, and SOA Services and Solutions; while ICWS 2008 will continue to
put its focus on all aspects of Web services from Computer Science and
Engineering perspectives.
Authors are invited to submit original, UNPUBLISHED research papers that are
not being considered in another forum. Please note that the same paper
should not be submitted to SCC 2008 and ICWS 2008 simultaneously. Such
duplicate submissions will be rejected from both conferences without review.
Manuscripts will be limited to 8 (IEEE Proceeding style) pages and be
printed on 10 or 11 size font. Please follow the IEEE Computer Society Press
Proceedings Author Guidelines to prepare your papers. Electronic submission
of manuscripts (in PDF or Word format) is required. Detailed Instructions
for electronic paper submission, panel proposals, tutorial proposals, and
review process can be found at http://conferences.computer.org/scc/2008/. At
least one author of each accepted paper is required to attend the conference
and present the paper. The enhanced version of the selected papers published
in SCC 2008 will be invited for publication in the International Journal of
Business Process Integration and Management (IJBPIM), the International
Journal of Web Services Research (JWSR), the International Journal of Grid
and Utility Computing (IJGUC), and possibly other reputable journals. One
Best Paper Award and one Best Student Paper Award will be presented by SCC
2008. The first author of the best student papers should be full-time
student.
Review Policy:
"IEEE Policy and professional ethics requires that referees treat the
contents of papers under review as privileged information not to be
disclosed to others before publication. It is expected that no one with
access to a paper under review will make any inappropriate use of the
special knowledge, which that access provides. Contents of abstracts
submitted to conference program committees should be regarded as privileged
as well, and handled in the same manner. The Conference Publications Chair
shall ensure that referees adhere to this practice. Organizers of IEEE
conferences are expected to provide an appropriate forum for the oral
presentation and discussion of all accepted papers. An author, in offering a
paper for presentation at an IEEE conference, or accepting an invitation to
present a paper, is expected to be present at the meeting to deliver the
paper. In the event that circumstances unknown at the time of submission of
a paper preclude its presentation by an author, the program chair should be
informed on time, and appropriate substitute arrangements should be made. In
some cases it may help reduce no-shows for the Conference to require advance
registration together with the submission of the final manuscript."

Scope: Ontologies represent a shared meaning of domain knowledge and act as enabler for many applications such as data integration, agent communication, peer-to-peer systems, e-commerce, and semantic web services. With an increase in the development of ontologies comes the need for tools and techniques for solving heterogeneity problems among different ontologies.
Currently, we cannot guarantee that the results from ontology alignment algorithms will always be accurate. In general, a user interacting with an ontology alignment tool, must check the candidate alignments produced by the tool, indicate which ones are correct and which ones are not, and create additional matches that the tool may have missed. This is a difficult task, especially when dealing with large, complex ontologies.
Target Group: This workshop aims at providing a place of discussion for researchers interested in the field of ontology alignment and ontology visualization in order to analyze current shortcomings, identify users' needs and future research challenges, present exciting ideas, and find new solutions for effective and qualitative data integration in the semantic web. Researchers interested in discussing new techniques for understanding and presenting ontology alignment results are encouraged to participate. This also includes researchers with a general interest in ontology visualization techniques.
Topics of interest include (but are not limited to): Ontology Alignment Ontology Mapping Automated and Human-mediated Tasks of the Alignment Process User Interfaces for Ontology Alignment Visual Metaphors in Alignment Ontology Visualization User-specific and Task-oriented Ontology Alignment Definition and Manipulation of Alignment Targets Ontology Adaptation Quality in Ontology Alignment and Mapping Alignment Meta-Data Alignment Vocabularies Standardization of Alignment Data Industry applications of ontology alignment Navigation in Alignment and Information Spaces Similarity Measures for Ontology Alignment Relatedness of Ontologies
Submission Guidelines & Publication: The papers should be prepared using the IEEE CS format, two columns layout, single-spaced, 10-point, and using page numbers. The length should not exceed 6 pages (including figures and tables). For submission the paper should not contain the names of the authors or any references that may point to them as the authors of the paper. The papers should be submitted electronically via CISIS'08 website. If there is any problem with the electronic submission, please contact Monika Lanzenberger.
Submitted papers will be carefully evaluated based on originality, significance to workshop topics, technical soundness, clarity, and presentation quality. Each submission will receive at least three double-blind reviews. Proceedings of the workshop will be published by IEEE Computer Society Press. The best papers presented at the workshop will be selected for publication in an international journal.

Sciences and Software Engineering [SCSS 2007]
(http://www.cisse2007online.org/) is in one week (October 22, 2007). The
Conference organizing committee has decided to extend the paper submission
deadline due to numerous deadline extension requests from potential SCSS
2007 authors. SCSS 2007 is part of the Third International Joint Conferences
on Computer, Information, and Systms Sciences, and Engineering (CISSE 2007).
CISSE 2007 has received more than 350 paper submissions so far from over 65
countries and we are looking forward to your quality paper contributions.
Please note that this is a hard deadline, so that the technical committees
can perform their paper reviewing duties in a timely manner.
You are invited to submit full papers electronically through the website of
the conference at http://www.cisse2007online.org
Accepted papers must be presented in the virtual conference by one of the

CONFERENCE OVERVIEW
---------------------------------------------------------------------
SCSS 2007 provides a virtual forum for presentation and discussion of the
state-of the-art research on Systems, Computing Sciences and Software
Engineering. SCSS 2007 is one of the sub-confernces in the CISSE series of
international joint e-conferences. CISSE is the World's first Engineering /
Computing and Systems Research E-Conference. CISSE 2005 was the first
high-caliber Research Conference in the world to be completely conducted
online in real-time via the internet. CISSE 2005 received 255 research paper
submissions and the final program included 140 accepted papers, from more
than 45 countries. CISSE 2006 received 691 research paper submissions and
the final program included 390 accepted papers, from more than 70 countries.
The virtual conference will be conducted through the Internet using
web-conferencing tools, made available by the conference. Authors will be
presenting their PowerPoint, audio or video presentations using
web-conferencing tools without the need for travel. Conference sessions will
be broadcast to all the conference participants, where session participants
can interact with the presenter during the presentation and
(or) during the Q&A slot that follows the presentation. This international
conference will be held entirely on-line. The accepted and presented papers
will be made available and sent to the authors after the conference both on
a DVD (including all papers, powerpoint presentations and audio
presentations) and as a book publication. Springer, the official publisher
for CISSE, published the 2005 proceedings in 2 books and the CISSE 2006
proceedings in four books.
Conference participants - authors, presenters and attendees - only need an
internet connection and sound available on their computers in order to be
able to contribute and participate in this international ground-breaking
conference. The on-line structure of this high-quality event will allow
academic professionals and industry participants to contribute their work
and attend world-class technical presentations based on rigorously refereed
submissions, live, without the need for investing significant travel funds
or time out of the office.
The concept and format of CISSE is very exciting and ground-breaking. The
PowerPoint presentations, final paper manuscripts and time schedule for live
presentations over the web had been available for weeks prior to the start
of the conference for all registrants, so that the participants can choose
the presentations they want to attend and think about questions that they
might want to ask. The live audio presentations were also recorded and are
part of the permanent CISSE on-line archive - accessible to all
registrants- which also includes all the papers, PowerPoint and audio
presentations.
Potential non-author conference attendees who cannot make the on-line
conference dates are encouraged to register, as the entire joint conferences
will be archived for future viewing.
The CISSE conference audio room provides superb audio even over low speed
internet connections, the ability to display PowerPoint presentations, and
cross-platform compatibility (the conferencing software runs on Windows,
Mac, and any other operating system that supports Java). In addition, the
conferencing system allowed for an unlimited number of participants, which
in turn granted us the opportunity to allow all CISSE participants to attend
all presentations, as opposed to limiting the number of available seats for
each session.
Prospective authors are invited to submit full papers electronically in
Microsoft Word format through the website of the conference at
http://www.cisse2007online.org.
Accepted papers must be presented in the virtual conference by one of the
authors. To submit your paper, visit http://www.cisse2007online.org
The topics covered by the Third International Conference on Systems,
Computing Sciences and Software Engineering (SCSS 07) include but are not
limited to the following:
Topics: Grid Computing, Internet-based Computing Models, Resource
Discovery, Programming Models and tools, e-Science and Virtual
Instrumentation, Biometric Authentication, Computers for People of Special
Needs, Human Computer Interaction, Information and Knowledge Engineering,
Algorithms, Parallel and Distributed processing, Modeling and Simulation,
Services and Applications, Embedded Systems and Applications, Databases,
Programming Languages, Signal Processing Theory and Methods, Signal
Processing for Communication, Signal Processing Architectures and
Implementation, Information Processing, Geographical Information Systems,
Object Based Software Engineering, Parallel and Distributed Computing, Real
Time Systems, Multiprocessing, File Systems and I/O, Kernel and OS
Structures.

Safari Books Online and Safari IT Books Online are important sources of books to use in our field. Take advantage of this limited-time offer (till 27 November 2007).
The Oxford English Dictionary is the accepted authority on the evolution of the English language over the last millennium. It is an unsurpassed guide to the meaning, history, and pronunciation of over half a million words, both present and past. It traces the usage of words through 2.5 million quotations from a wide range of international English language sources, The OED covers words from across the English-speaking world, from North America to South Africa, from Australia and New Zealand to the Caribbean. It also offers the best in etymological analysis and in listing of variant spellings, and it shows pronunciation using the International Phonetic Alphabet.
As the OED is a historical dictionary, its entry structure is very different from that of a dictionary of current English, in which only present-day senses are covered, and in which the most common meanings or senses are described first. For each word in the OED, the various groupings of senses are dealt with in chronological order according to the quotation evidence, i.e. the senses with the earliest quotations appear first, and the senses which have developed more recently appear further down the entry. In a complex entry with many strands, the development over time can be seen in a structure with several 'branches'.
Oxford Reference Online: Premium Collection includes over 1 million entries across 25 subject areas ~ everything from architecture to zoology. It offers the very best in quick reference information together with authoritative, in-depth articles by world-famous authors. It also offers excellent functionality, and a wide range of additional material such as maps, illustrations and timelines.
A VAST ONLINE REFERENCE LIBRARY... * Contains the full text of over 130 dictionaries, plus an Encyclopaedia. * Offers unrivalled coverage of everything from art to accountancy, politics to physics, and computing to classics. * Offers the very best in quick-reference information plus authoritative in-depth articles by world famous authors. * Also contains a wide range of English dictionaries, and bilingual dictionaries of French, German, Spanish, Italian, and Latin. * Thesauri, and guides to English grammar and usage, are also available as part of the package. * Includes over 12,000 illustrations and 500 full-colour maps.
