NASA data show Arctic saw fastest August sea ice retreat on record

Following a record-breaking season of arctic sea ice decline in 2007, NASA scientists have kept a close watch on the 2008 melt season. Although the melt season did not break the record for ice loss, NASA data are showing that for a four-week period in August 2008, sea ice melted faster during that period than ever before.

Arctic Sea Ice Rallies a Bit

radioweather writes "Like the recent stock market rebound, Arctic sea ice is making a big rally over the record low set last year. According to the Alaskan IARC-JAXA website, satellite data which shows sea ice extent as of 10/14/08 was 7,064,219 square kilometers, when compared to a year ago 10/14/08 it was 5,487,656 square kilometers. The one-day gain between 10/13/08 and 10/14/08 of 3.8% is also quite impressive. On May 5th, The National Snow and Ice Data Center suggested the possibility of an ice-free north pole in 2008, but so far, this year has been a banner year for sea ice recovery."

Generic Data Access in XML Based Workflow Management Systems

Various kinds of data are processed in workflow management systems: from case data to control data, from internal data to access to external databases or documents exchanged in inter-organizational workflows. The paper proposes a uniform treatment of all kinds of business data in workflows. This is achieved by an abstraction mechanism which enables the transparent access to data in any source in a uniform way. The paper describes an implementation of the extendible generic data access plug-in which provides the workflow management system with updateable XML views of relational data.

Privacy-Preserving Data Mining Using Multi-Group Randomized Response Techniques

Privacy is an important issue in data mining and knowledge discovery. This paper describes a specific privacy preserving data mining problem: Company C wants to collect data from its customers to form a data set for data mining purpose. For the data collection, C sends out a survey containing a set of questions; each customer needs to answer those questions and sends back the answers. However, because the survey contains sensitive questions, not every user feels comfortable to disclose his/her answers to those questions; how could one develop a method such that C cannot find out any customer's actual answers, while still being able to derive reasonably accurate data mining results? The paper proposes to use the randomized response techniques to conduct the data collection.

Dissemination of Heterogeneous XML Data

A lot of recent research has focused on the content-based dissemination of XML data. However, due to the heterogeneous data schemas used by different data publishers even for data in the same domain, an important challenge is how to efficiently and effectively disseminate relevant data to subscribers whose subscriptions might be specified based on schemas that are different from those used by the data publishers. This paper examines the options to resolve this schema heterogeneity problem in XML data dissemination, and proposes a novel paradigm that is based on data rewriting.
