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.

A particle swarm optimization algorithm for multiuser scheduling in HSDPA (2008)
Conference Proceeding
Aydin, M. E., Kwan, R., Leung, C., & Zhang, J. (2008). A particle swarm optimization algorithm for multiuser scheduling in HSDPA. In Ant Colony Optimization and Swarm Intelligence (395-396). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-540-87527-7_42

This paper briefs the problem of optimal multiuser scheduling in HSDPA. The modulation and coding schemes (MCSs), numbers of multicodes and power levels for all users are jointly optimized at each scheduling period, given that only limited Channel Qu...
