Ontology assisted query reformulation using the semantic and assertion capabilities of OWL-DL ontologies (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

End users of recent biomedical information systems are often unaware of the storage structure and access mechanisms of the underlying data sources and can require simplified mechanisms for writing domain specific complex queries. This research aims t... Read More about Ontology assisted query reformulation using the semantic and assertion capabilities of OWL-DL ontologies.

The BPMSOA: evaluating the enactment of a business process using application domain specific grid services (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Using assertion capabilities of an OWL-based ontology for query formulation (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

This paper reports on the development of a framework to assist users in formulating relational queries without requiring a complete knowledge of the information structure and access mechanisms to underlying data sources. The emphasis here is on explo... Read More about Using assertion capabilities of an OWL-based ontology for query formulation.

Ontology-driven requirements engineering: building the ontoREM meta model (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The present paper gives an insight into the process of developing the metamodel of OntoREM, an Ontology-driven Requirements Engineering Methodology, which is currently being developed at the University of the West of England in close cooperation with...

From process-driven to knowledge driven requirements engineering using domain ontology (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

The BPMSOA: Linking utility grid services with executable business processes using the π-ADL based proxy router (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

Using BPMSOA, both structural and informational contexts of a business process model can be incorporated in its translated π-ADL script. However, this π-ADL based executable script of business process still lacks the behavioural context for specific...

Business process modelling: Coarse to fine grain mapping using metamodels (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution

One of the key objectives of Business Process Modelling is to better understand and visualise business processes in order to improve and/or enact them in some IT infrastructure. This modelling perspective becomes more complicated and challenging... Read More about Business process modelling: Coarse to fine grain mapping using metamodels.

Modelling healthcare processes using role activity diagramming (2008)
Journal Article

This paper presents an investigation into the use of Role Activity Diagramming (RAD) to model complex processes in the healthcare sector, with reference to the process of Cancer Care and Registration in Jordan. We argue that RAD models are generally... Read More about Modelling healthcare processes using role activity diagramming.

A new hybrid architecture for the discovery and compaction of knowledge from breast cancer datasets (2008)

Knowledge discovery from medical data: an empirical study with XCS (2008)
Book Chapter

In this chapter we describe the use of a modern learning classifier system to a data mining task. In particular, in collaboration with a medical specialist, we apply XCS to a primary breast cancer data set. Our results indicate more effective knowled...
