Abstract

The article describes semiotic models representing convergence of the natural and the artificial in communications in the Internet of Things. The Internet of Things is considered to be a breakthrough stage of the World Wide Web development, when a special importance is attached to semiotic processes, which are the key processes while deploying new information technologies.

Key words: Internet of Things, semiotics, communication, sign dynamics, Homo significans, communication event.

Abstract

The article considers citizen engagement in solving the problems of regional and municipal management and presents the approach based on modern geo-information technologies, such as Volunteered Geographic Information (VGI). The authors describe best practice in this area, provide examples of efficient use of VGI technologies for practical implementation of regional and municipal management tasks. Experience of creating Place, I Care VGI platform that can be used as the foundation for a number of applied GISs to enable citizen-authority interaction is also analyzed.

Key words: Geo information systems, geo-design, regional management, spatial data infrastructure.

Abstract

The article considers possibilities of using information parameters of phase-frequency characteristics of reflected seismic waves to solve structural problems and to forecast properties of a geologic profile. The article presents R&D results for a number of phase-frequency methods of analysis of complex wave fields. The authors demonstrate high efficiency of phase- frequency methods and provide examples of their use for data processing.

Key words: Phase spectrums, seismic signals, information parameters, phase- frequency methods, complex wave fields.

Abstract

Efficiency of data visualization methods application is rooted in reasonable and predictable use of the input data. The work considers main peculiarities of visualization of arbitrary data in the context of enhancing cognitive properties of visual models and points out some aspects of visual perception. The understanding of their principles can considerably enhance impact of visualization on solving the tasks related with diverse data sources.

Key words: Data visualization, visualization metaphor, data mining, cognitive systems, perception of information.

Abstract

Creation of a single information space (SIS) of modern industrial companies involves a number of issues, among which the most important is the challenge of integrating the companies’ information systems by production data. The article offers approach to solving this task through using industry-related instrumental systems designed to integrate production data. Every production data integration system must take into account specific features of an industry and function as an adaptable tool for creating single information space of certain companies of the industry. The author enunciates principles of building and proposes the generalized architecture of developing an instrumental production data integration system, as well as basic integration model of production data. The basic software was underlying the development of a production data integration system for oil and gas industry. The system has successfully passed beta testing in a number of companies.

Key words: Single IT space, industrial company, information systems, end-to-end management information system, corporate single information space.
