The semantic web – ISWC 2005 ; 4th International semantic web conference, ISWC 2005, Galway, Ireland, November 6-10, 2005, Proceedings
A little over a decade has passed since the release of the frst Netscape browser. In 1995,the World Wide Web was viewedlargelyas an academiccuriosity.Now, of course, the Web is an integral part of the fabric of modern society. It is impossible to imagine science, education, commerce, or government functioning without the Web. We take the Web for granted, and often assume that Internet connectivity is guaranteed to all of us as a birthright. Although the Web indeed has become “world wide” and has lost a bit of its original aura as a consequence of its ubiquity, a burgeoning community of researchers and practitioners continues to work toward the next generation of the Web—a Web where information will be stored in a machine-processable form and where intelligent computer-based agents will access and automatically combine myriad services on the Internet of the kind that are now available only to people interacting directly with their Web browsers.

The Network(ed) Economy : The Nature, Adoption and Diffusion of Communication Standards
In an increasingly globalized and networked world modern communication channels and new electronic media standards are constantly changing traditional interaction patterns of humans and even machines. Communication-based interaction is of pivotal economic importance and the availability of generally accepted electronic communication standards is essential in order to decrease communication-related transaction costs.This book combines the theories of diffusion and network effects and presents a new goods classification model to explore the dissemination of IT and e-business standards. On this basis it designs two applications that support and improve firms' electronic interlaced communication by means of automation and standardization effects.

Telecommunications Modeling, Policy, and Technology
With rapid advances in telecommunications technology there are many new innovative applications. These advances in technology spawn new research problems. This volume is motivated by these advances in technology. Topics range from free-space optical networks to vehicular ad-hoc networks. The research contained in these papers cover a broad spectrum of issues. They range from the design of business models, tools for spectrum auctions, Internet charging schemes, Internet routing policies, and network design problems. Together, they address issues dealing both with engineering design and policy, and it is hoped that these papers will foster new ideas and research in their respective domains.

Supply Chain Management : Models, Applications, and Research Directions
Brings together some of the most up to date research in the application of operations research and mathematical modeling te- niques to problems arising in supply chain management and e-Commerce. While research in the broad area of supply chain management enc- passes a wide range of topics and methodologies, we believe this book provides a good snapshot of current quantitative modeling approaches, issues, and trends within the field. Each chapter is a self-contained study of a timely and relevant research problem in supply chain mana- ment. The individual works place a heavy emphasis on the application of modeling techniques to real world management problems. In many instances, the actual results from applying these techniques in practice are highlighted. In addition, each chapter provides important mana- rial insights that apply to general supply chain management practice. The book is divided into three parts. The first part contains ch- ters that address the new and rapidly growing role of the internet and e-Commerce in supply chain management. Topics include e-Business applications and potentials; customer service issues in the presence of multiple sales channels, varying from purely Internet-based to traditional physical outlets; and risk management issues in e-Business in B2B m- kets.
