\ ChatGPT, in recent months, has made a significant impact and exposure in the information world. Many studies have been conducted within a shorter timeframe about its efficiency, reliability, ethics, accuracy and acceptance. Besides, hundreds of opinions and perception-based analyses have also emerged. In this work, we look at the ChatGPT as a question-answering tool. We have used randomly generated prompts to solicit answers and analysed the results from a text analysis angle. The answers are compared with text analysers both manually and statistically. ChatGPT still needs more precision for linguistic effects and fails to meet comprehensive users{\textquoteright} requirements.

\ Information Systems and Technologies (IST) in healthcare have evolved gradually, and theories about adopting and maturing information systems and technologies are sufficiently established in organisational management literature. In this paper, we approach the evolution of IST in healthcare, introducing the concepts associated with maturity models, addressing the generic maturity model for IST management, and explicitly presenting the main maturity models focusing on the management of IST in healthcare. Relatively to the last ones, we conclude that there is still a way to go in having widespread and detailed maturity models available.

The Marching Cubes algorithm is based on the estimate of the isovalue in order to determine all the pixels that are belonging to the volume to be reconstructed. This estimation is done by the user in an interactive and way without any orientation; this is no longer an intuitive process. Solutions are proposed to detect more than one isovalue and have been used to display multiple isosurfaces and not to adjust or automatically determine isovalue. Other solutions propose to explore histogram to estimate isovalue automatically; those remain insufficient because they still require user intervention. The proposed method acts directly in the isovalue estimation phase. In fact, we propose to make this estimate by using automatic methods of sampling, which have shown their performance in estimating a threshold in several works. This paper proposes to make the use of existing automated isovalue selection methods that take into account histogram and the dynamics of the image. The automatic Marching Cubes algorithm reduces user interaction and makes the selection process more intuitive. The obtained results will show that this adaptation minimizes the computing time and that the obtained volumes are of better quality than those obtained by the classical Marching Cubes algorithm.

Today, enterprises use a variety of applications to manage day-by-day business activities using a large centralized database. Since a huge amount of data stored in this centralized database produced by the daily use of several systems, it is important to integrate decision-making tools to analyse and interpret these business data. For this purpose, Data Mining is a powerful technology that promote information and knowledge extraction from large databases. In this paper, we present an agent-based approach for extracting business association rules from centralized database systems. This approach combine paradigm of multi-agent system and the association rules as a data mining technique to build anefficient model. It is relying on the intelligent partitioning of data to make the execution of business association rules in a parallel and distributed way from a large centralized database. To validate our approach, we applied it during the realization of a real case study on ERP database at the National company of Well Services (ENSP)using JADE platform with machine learning WEKA toolbox for association rules mining. The developed system has been compared with the classic association rules algorithms and has proved it is more efficient and more scalable. The main objective of our work is to improve and accelerate the process of extracting association rules by business through centralized database systems. As a result, the decision process of these systems becomes more improved.

There are many management applications such as disaster management, air pollution management, weather management, traffic control management etc. which requires continuous attentions and prompt actions. Inclusion of theory of management support and timely decision to any un-managed system will improve the performance, usability and sustainability. Wireless Sensor Network is a self build infrastructure which deployed on the areas where there is no continuous power supply to the sensor nodes. There are many researches and approach has been proposed and protocols designed to address the network performance. We analyzed and identified the issue areas where management support and timely organized decisions improve the wireless sensor network performance. We categorized the system based on levels of management and presented our proposed protocols in all levels with process flow and performance comparisons through our simulation models.

Industry cluster is a new feature under the background of globalization, informationization and integration. Along with the development of science and technology, the competition between industry clusters is gradually changed from the traditional cost competition into the innovation ability. The ability of innovation is not only concerned with single enterprise or institution{\textquoteright}s ablity but also concerned with the relationship built up by the enterprises in the industry cluster and the innovation environment around them. This article analyzed network structure and evolution of innovation networks on the basis of complicated network theory. According to the construction principle of complex network, we simulated the evolution process of innovation network structure of different types. And, we also analyzed the features and differences of two typical complex networks. The conclusion will provide suggestions for industry cluster to build up innovation system and upgrade the competition ability.

On the one hand, the heterogeneity of the sensor nodes makes share and finding data at the mobile devices and sink nodes much harder. On the other hand, nodes in Ubiquitous Computing environment are highly dynamic which means query planning in Ubiquitous Computing environment should be able to dynamically re-make their plan when the network conditions change due to intermittent connectivity. To address these two issues, this paper proposes a new service-oriented framework(called UCDS, standing for Ubiquitous Computing Data Services ) at application-level, which supports for semantic integration and querying of heterogeneous data sets distributed over the Ubiquitous Computing environment.

However, the shortest routes do not always provide the best performance, especially when there are congested nodes along these routes. In this paper, we propose an on demand delay based quality of service routing protocol (AODV-D) to ensure that delay does not exceed a maximum value. First in this paper, we compare the performance of two prominent on demand routing protocols AODV and DSR in stressful situation. As the performance of AODV has been found better in our simulation than DSR, we decided to modify AODV routing protocol to provide quality-ofservice. This protocol takes into consideration MAC layer channel contention information and number of packets in the interface queue in addition to minimum hops.

The problem of schema matching can be formulated as follows, "given two schemas, Si and Sj, find the most plausible correspondences between the elements of Si and S j, exploiting all available information, such as the schemas, instance data, and auxiliary sources" [24]. Given the rapidly increasing number of data sources to integrate and due to database heterogeneities, manually identifying schema matches is a tedious, time consuming, error-prone, and therefore expensive process. As systems become able to handle more complex databases and applications, their schemas become large, further increasing the number of matches to be performed. Thus, automating this process, which attempts to achieve faster and less labor-intensive, has been one of the main tasks in data integration. However, it is not possible to determine fully automatically the different correspondences between schemas, primarily because of the differing and often not explicated or documented semantics of the schemas. Several solutions in solving the issues of schema matching have been proposed. Nevertheless, these solutions are still limited, as they do not explore most of the available information related to schemas and thus affect the result of integration.

This geographic model allows space features to be described independently of their representation mode (text, graphics) in the documents. We have developed a prototype implementing geographic Information Extraction (IE) and geographic Information Retrieval (IR) processes. We process geographic IE with semantic techniques combined to classic IE approaches. Then, we implement geographic IR with intersections researching algorithms: these algorithms search for all geocoded entities in the documents collections indexes which intersect any entity in the user{\textquoteright}s query. This paper focuses on IR and Visualization proposals relying on the geospatial characteristics of cultural heritage corpora.}, keywords = {Cultural heritage, Digital libraries, Geographic information retrieval and visualization, Geographic model, Non-structured documents}, url = {http://www.scopus.com/inward/record.url?eid=2-s2.0-56849092298\&partnerID=40\&md5=199c3f9b17bf1a325e0c3fcc90160b17}, author = {Marquesuza{\`a}, C. and Etcheverry, P. and Sallaberry, C. and Baziz, M.} } @article {115, title = {An actor like data model for a parallel DBMS}, journal = {Journal of Digital Information Management}, volume = {6}, year = {2008}, note = {Cited By (since 1996):1Export Date: 10 July 2014}, month = {2008}, pages = {262 - 271}, abstract = {We present in this paper the new concept of "actor databases" (DB-Act) being studied at the INI institute (Act21 project) where we are developing a parallel main memory database system based on an actor like data model.

This paper analyses. approaches for XML data storage in traditional DBMS and proposes alternative solutions for GML. Every GML document structure is defined in an application schema. We propose an approach for GML storage based on the analysis of the underlying application schema. A semi-automatic mapping mechanism has been proposed for the application schema to relational schemas of standard database with the utilization of the domain ontology.

It enables identification of independent and redundant features. This approach assists in efficient selection of orthogonal features for content-based retrieval.

We propose a method, based on data mining algorithms, which allows one to infer the "normal behavior" of objects, by extracting frequent "rules" from a given dataset. These rules are described in the form of quasi-functional dependencies and mined from the dataset by using association rules. Our approach allows us to consequently analyze anomalies with respect to the previously inferred dependencies: given a quasi-functional dependency, it is possible to discover the related anomalies by querying either the original database or the association rules previously stored. By further investigating the nature of such anomalies, we can either derive the presence of erroneous data or highlight novel information which represents significant exceptions of frequent rules. Our method is independent of the considered database and directly infers rules from the data.
