The pipeline for macro- and microarray analyses (PMmA) is a set of scripts with a web interface developed to analyze DNA array data generated by array image quantification software. PMmA is designed for use with single- or double-color array data and to work as a pipeline in five classes (data format, normalization, data analysis, clustering, and array maps). It can also be used as a plugin in the BioArray Software Environment, an open-source database for array analysis, or used in a local version of the web service. All scripts in PMmA were developed in the PERL programming language and statistical analysis functions were implemented in the R statistical language. Consequently, our package is a platform-independent software. Our algorithms can correctly select almost 90% of the differentially expressed genes, showing a superior performance compared to other methods of analysis. The pipeline software has been applied to 1536 expressed sequence tags macroarray public data of sugarcane exposed to cold for 3 to 48 h. PMmA identified thirty cold-responsive genes previously unidentified in this public dataset. Fourteen genes were up-regulated, two had a variable expression and the other fourteen were down-regulated in the treatments. These new findings certainly were a consequence of using a superior statistical analysis approach, since the original study did not take into account the dependence of data variability on the average signal intensity of each gene. The web interface, supplementary information, and the package source code are available, free, to non-commercial users at http://ipe.cbmeg.unicamp.br/pub/PMmA.

Verkkopalveluiden ylläpitovaiheessa halutaan varmistua, etteivät palveluun tehdyt muutokset aiheuta verkkopalvelussa virhetilanteita ja palvelu toimii moitteetta. Muutoksen hyväksyntätestaus voidaan tehdä regressiotestauksena vertaamalla palvelun tilaa ennen ja jälkeen muutoksen. Sisältöpainotteisessa verkkopalvelussa testaaminen keskittyy loppukäyttäjälle esitetyn sivun semanttiseen sekä visuaaliseen oikeellisuuteen sekä erilaisiin toiminnallisiin testeihin. Työssä tarkastellaan etenkin suositulla WordPress-julkaisujärjestelmällä toteutettujen verkkopalveluiden ylläpitoa. Keskeisenä osana julkaisujärjestelmillä toteutettujen verkkopalveluiden ylläpitoa on julkaisujärjestelmän ja sitä täydentävien lisäosien päivittämistä ajantasaisiin versioihin. Nämä päivitykset paitsi tuovat uusia ominaisuuksia verkkopalvelun kehittäjille, myös paikkaavat järjestelmän tietoturvahaavoittuvuuksia sekä korjaavat aiemmissa versioissa esiintyneitä virheitä. Tässä työssä kehitettiin kohdeyrityksen aiempia verkkopalveluiden ylläpitoprosesseja niissä tunnistettujen kehityskohteiden perusteella. Uudistettu kokonaisuus jakautuu kahteen kokonaisuuteen: päivitystarpeen seurantaan sekä päivitysten tekemiseen. Päivitystarpeen seurantaa varten kehitettiin uusi työkalu helpottamaan kokonaiskuvan hahmottamista. Päivitysten tekemisen osalta työssä keskityttiin automatisoidun regressiotestauksen kehittämiseen, missä tärkeimpänä testauskeinona käytetään verkkopalvelusta tallennettujen kuvankaappausten vertailuun perustuvaa visuaalista testausta. Uusien ylläpitoprosesseille määriteltiin myös seurannan kohteet uudistuksen onnistumisen ja jatkokehityksen arviointia varten.

The theme of the thesis is centred around one important aspect of wireless sensor networks; the energy-efficiency.The limited energy source of the sensor nodes calls for design of energy-efficient routing protocols. The schemes for protocol design should try to minimize the number of communications among the nodes to save energy. Cluster based techniques were found energy-efficient. In this method clusters are formed and data from different nodes are collected under a cluster head belonging to each clusters and then forwarded it to the base station.Appropriate cluster head selection process and generation of desirable distribution of the clusters can reduce energy consumption of the network and prolong the network lifetime. In this work two such schemes were developed for static wireless sensor networks.In the first scheme, the energy wastage due to cluster rebuilding incorporating all the nodes were addressed. A tree based scheme is presented to alleviate this problem by rebuilding only sub clusters of the network. An analytical model of energy consumption of proposed scheme is developed and the scheme is compared with existing cluster based scheme. The simulation study proved the energy savings observed.The second scheme concentrated to build load-balanced energy efficient clusters to prolong the lifetime of the network. A voting based approach to utilise the neighbor node information in the cluster head selection process is proposed. The number of nodes joining a cluster is restricted to have equal sized optimum clusters. Multi-hop communication among the cluster heads is also introduced to reduce the energy consumption. The simulation study has shown that the scheme results in balanced clusters and the network achieves reduction in energy consumption.The main conclusion from the study was the routing scheme should pay attention on successful data delivery from node to base station in addition to the energy-efficiency. The cluster based protocols are extended from static scenario to mobile scenario by various authors. None of the proposals addresses cluster head election appropriately in view of mobility. An elegant scheme for electing cluster heads is presented to meet the challenge of handling cluster durability when all the nodes in the network are moving. The scheme has been simulated and compared with a similar approach.The proliferation of sensor networks enables users with large set of sensor information to utilise them in various applications. The sensor network programming is inherently difficult due to various reasons. There must be an elegant way to collect the data gathered by sensor networks with out worrying about the underlying structure of the network. The final work presented addresses a way to collect data from a sensor network and present it to the users in a flexible way.A service oriented architecture based application is built and data collection task is presented as a web service. This will enable composition of sensor data from different sensor networks to build interesting applications. The main objective of the thesis was to design energy-efficient routing schemes for both static as well as mobile sensor networks. A progressive approach was followed to achieve this goal.

Die Technologie dienstorientierter Architekturen (Service-oriented Architectures, kurz SOA) weckt große Visionen auf Seiten der Industrie wie auch der Forschung. Sie hat sich als derzeit ideale Lösung für Umgebungen, in denen sich die Anforderungen an die IT-Bedürfnisse rapide ändern, erwiesen. Heutige IT-Systeme müssen Managementaufgaben wie Softwareinstallation, -anpassung oder -austausch erlauben, ohne dabei den laufenden Betrieb wesentlich zu stören. Die dafür nötige Flexibilität bieten dienstorientierte Architekturen, in denen Softwarekomponenten in Form von Diensten zur Verfügung stehen. Ein Dienst bietet über seine Schnittstelle lokalen wie entfernten Applikationen einen Zugang zu seiner Funktionalität. Wir betrachten im Folgenden nur solche dienstorientierte Architekturen, in denen Dienste zur Laufzeit dynamisch entdeckt, gebunden, komponiert, verhandelt und adaptiert werden können. Eine Applikation kann mit unterschiedlichen Diensten arbeiten, wenn beispielsweise Dienste ausfallen oder ein neuer Dienst die Anforderungen der Applikation besser erfüllt. Eine unserer Grundvoraussetzungen lautet somit, dass sowohl das Dienstangebot als auch die Nachfrageseite variabel sind. Dienstorientierte Architekturen haben besonderes Gewicht in der Implementierung von Geschäftsprozessen. Im Rahmen des Paradigmas Enterprise Integration Architecture werden einzelne Arbeitsschritte als Dienste implementiert und ein Geschäftsprozess als Workflow von Diensten ausgeführt. Eine solche Dienstkomposition wird auch Orchestration genannt. Insbesondere für die so genannte B2B-Integration (Business-to-Business) sind Dienste das probate Mittel, um die Kommunikation über die Unternehmensgrenzen hinaus zu unterstützen. Dienste werden hier in der Regel als Web Services realisiert, welche vermöge BPEL4WS orchestriert werden. Der XML-basierte Nachrichtenverkehr und das http-Protokoll sorgen für eine Verträglichkeit zwischen heterogenen Systemen und eine Transparenz des Nachrichtenverkehrs. Anbieter dieser Dienste versprechen sich einen hohen Nutzen durch ihre öffentlichen Dienste. Zum einen hofft man auf eine vermehrte Einbindung ihrer Dienste in Softwareprozesse. Zum anderen setzt man auf das Entwickeln neuer Software auf Basis ihrer Dienste. In der Zukunft werden hunderte solcher Dienste verfügbar sein und es wird schwer für den Entwickler passende Dienstangebote zu finden. Das Projekt ADDO hat in diesem Umfeld wichtige Ergebnisse erzielt. Im Laufe des Projektes wurde erreicht, dass der Einsatz semantischer Spezifikationen es ermöglicht, Dienste sowohl im Hinblick auf ihre funktionalen als auch ihre nicht-funktionalen Eigenschaften, insbesondere die Dienstgüte, automatisch zu sichten und an Dienstaggregate zu binden [15]. Dazu wurden Ontologie-Schemata [10, 16], Abgleichalgorithmen [16, 9] und Werkzeuge entwickelt und als Framework implementiert [16]. Der in diesem Rahmen entwickelte Abgleichalgorithmus für Dienstgüte beherrscht die automatische Aushandlung von Verträgen für die Dienstnutzung, um etwa kostenpflichtige Dienste zur Dienstnutzung einzubinden. ADDO liefert einen Ansatz, Schablonen für Dienstaggregate in BPEL4WS zu erstellen, die zur Laufzeit automatisch verwaltet werden. Das Vorgehen konnte seine Effektivität beim internationalen Wettbewerb Web Service Challenge 2006 in San Francisco unter Beweis stellen: Der für ADDO entwickelte Algorithmus zur semantischen Dienstkomposition erreichte den ersten Platz. Der Algorithmus erlaubt es, unter einer sehr großenMenge angebotener Dienste eine geeignete Auswahl zu treffen, diese Dienste zu Dienstaggregaten zusammenzufassen und damit die Funktionalität eines vorgegebenen gesuchten Dienstes zu leisten. Weitere Ergebnisse des Projektes ADDO wurden auf internationalen Workshops und Konferenzen veröffentlicht. [12, 11]

In today's society it is becoming more and more important with direct marketing. Some of the direct marketing is done through e-mail, in which companies see an easy way to advertise himself. I did this thesis work at WebDoc Systems. They have a product that creates web documents directly in your browser, also called CMS. The CMS has a module for sending mass e-mail, but this module does not function properly and WebDoc Systems customers are dissatisfied with that part of the product. The problem with the module was that sometimes it didn't send the e-mail, and that it was not possible to obtain some form of follow-up information on the e-mail. The goal of this work was to develop a Web service that could easily send e-mail to many receivers, just as easily be able to view statistics on how mailing has gone. The first step was to do a literature review to get a good picture of available programming platforms, but also to be able create a good application infrastructure. The next step was to implement this design and improve it over time by using an iterative development methodology. The result was an application infrastructure that consists of three main parts and a plugin interface. The parts that were implemented were a Web service application, a Web application and a Windows service application. The three elements cooperate with each other and share a database, and plugins.

Scientific workflows are becoming a valuable tool for scientists to capture and automate e-Science procedures. Their success brings the opportunity to publish, share, reuse and repurpose this explicitly captured knowledge. Within the myGrid project, we have identified key resources that can be shared including complete workflows, fragments of workflows and constituent services. We have examined the alternative ways these can be described by their authors (and subsequent users), and developed a unified descriptive model to support their later discovery. By basing this model on existing standards, we have been able to extend existing Web Service and Semantic Web Service infrastructure whilst still supporting the specific needs of the e-Scientist. myGrid components enable a workflow life-cycle that extends beyond execution, to include discovery of previous relevant designs, reuse of those designs, and subsequent publication. Experience with example groups of scientists indicates that this cycle is valuable. The growing number of workflows and services mean more work is needed to support the user in effective ranking of search results, and to support the repurposing process.

One of the current challenges of Ubiquitous Computing is the development of complex applications, those are more than simple alarms triggered by sensors or simple systems to configure the environment according to user preferences. Those applications are hard to develop since they are composed by services provided by different middleware and it is needed to know the peculiarities of each of them, mainly the communication and context models. This thesis presents OpenCOPI, a platform which integrates various services providers, including context provision middleware. It provides an unified ontology-based context model, as well as an environment that enable easy development of ubiquitous applications via the definition of semantic workflows that contains the abstract description of the application. Those semantic workflows are converted into concrete workflows, called execution plans. An execution plan consists of a workflow instance containing activities that are automated by a set of Web services. OpenCOPI supports the automatic Web service selection and composition, enabling the use of services provided by distinct middleware in an independent and transparent way. Moreover, this platform also supports execution adaptation in case of service failures, user mobility and degradation of services quality. The validation of OpenCOPI is performed through the development of case studies, specifically applications of the oil industry. In addition, this work evaluates the overhead introduced by OpenCOPI and compares it with the provided benefits, and the efficiency of OpenCOPI s selection and adaptation mechanism

The visualization of three-dimensional(3D)images is increasigly being sed in the area of medicine, helping physicians diagnose desease. the advances achived in scaners esed for acquisition of these 3d exames, such as computerized tumography(CT) and Magnetic Resonance imaging (MRI), enable the generation of images with higher resolutions, thus, generating files with much larger sizes. Currently, the images of computationally expensive one, and demanding the use of a righ and computer for such task. The direct remote acess of these images thruogh the internet is not efficient also, since all images have to be trasferred to the user´s equipment before the 3D visualization process ca start. with these problems in mind, this work proposes and analyses a solution for the remote redering of 3D medical images, called Remote Rendering (RR3D). In RR3D, the whole hedering process is pefomed a server or a cluster of servers, with high computational power, and only the resulting image is tranferred to the client, still allowing the client to peform operations such as rotations, zoom, etc. the solution was developed using web services written in java and an architecture that uses the scientific visualization packcage paraview, the framework paraviewWeb and the PACS server DCM4CHEE.The solution was tested with two scenarios where the rendering process was performed by a sever with graphics hadwere (GPU) and by a server without GPUs. In the scenarios without GPUs, the soluction was executed in parallel with several number of cores (processing units)dedicated to it. In order to compare our solution to order medical visualization application, a third scenario was esed in the rendering process, was done locally. In all tree scenarios, the solution was tested for different network speeds. The solution solved satisfactorily the problem with the delay in the transfer of the DICOM files, while alowing the use of low and computers as client for visualizing the exams even, tablets and smart phones

Web services are computational solutions designed according to the principles of Service Oriented Computing. Web services can be built upon pre-existing services available on the Internet by using composition languages. We propose a method to generate WS-BPEL processes from abstract specifications provided with high-level control-flow information. The proposed method allows the composition designer to concentrate on high-level specifi- cations, in order to increase productivity and generate specifications that are independent of specific web services. We consider service orchestrations, that is compositions where a central process coordinates all the operations of the application. The process of generating compositions is based on a rule rewriting algorithm, which has been extended to support basic control-flow information.We created a prototype of the extended refinement method and performed experiments over simple case studies

Web services are loosely coupled applications that use XML documents as a way of integrating distinct systems on the internet. Such documents are used by in standards such as SOAP, WSDL and UDDI which establish, respectively, integrated patterns for the representation of messages, description, and publication of services, thus facilitating the interoperability between heterogeneous systems. Often one single service does not meet the users needs, therefore new systems can be designed from the composition of two or more services. This which is the design goal behind the of the Service Oriented Architecture. Parallel to this scenario, we have the PEWS (Predicate Path-Expressions for Web Services) language, which speci es behavioural speci cations of composite web service interfaces.. The development of the PEWS language is divided into two parts: front-end and back-end. From a PEWS program, the front-end performs the lexical analysis, syntactic and semantic compositions and nally generate XML code. The function of the back-end is to execute the composition PEWS. This master's dissertation work aims to: (i) reformulate the proposed architecture for the runtime system of the language, (ii) Implement the back-end for PEWS by using .NET Framework tools to execute PEWS programs using the Windows Work ow Foundation
