description: Presentación de los trabajos recogidos en este volumen de la editorial Comares, que proporcionan una perspectiva amplia y detallada sobre el dominio complejo de la investigación en terapias avanzadas. Se destaca la relevancia de los resultados de investigación de varios integrantes del Proyecto de Excelencia SEJ-1558, financiado por la Consejería de Innovación, Ciencia y Empresa de la Junta de Andalucía, así como las aportaciones de varios ponentes invitados en el curso del Centro Mediterráneo-Universidad de Granada denominado Perspectivas en la investigación con células troncales: Aspectos científicos, éticos y legales (Granada, oct. 2009). Las contribuciones combinan rigor académico en la presentación de resultados/estado de la cuestión y responden a la exigencia de adoptar un lenguaje comprensible para un público no especializado, proporcionando cierta perspectiva sobre la evolución del problema y elementos para situarse de manera informada y crítica en el debate actual.

El enfoque interdisciplinar queda garantizado por la procedencia institucional y profesional diversa de los autores, la mayoría con una trayectoria dilatada en su terreno (medicina, biología, filosofía, ética, sociología, derecho, etc.). Sólo así parecía posible articular una aproximación coherente a la complejidad de las tecnologías que convergen en el dominio de las terapias avanzadas y de la investigación con células troncales. Sobre esta base se introducen los diversos aspectos en los que el debate ético, social y jurídico se ha ido desglosando.

description: We present spatially resolved infrared spectra of V723 Cas (Nova Cassiopeia 1995) obtained over four years with the integral field spectrograph OSIRIS on Keck II. Also presented are one epoch of spatially unresolved spectra from the long slit spectrograph NIRSPEC on Keck II. The OSIRIS observations made use of the laser guide star adaptive optics facility that produced diffraction-limited spatial resolution of the strong coronal emission features in the nova ejecta. We remove the point-like continuum from V723 Cas data cubes to reveal details of the extended nebula and find that emission due to [Si VI] and [Ca VIII] has an equatorial ring structure with polar nodules-a strikingly different morphology than emission due to [Al IX], which appears as a prolate spheroid. The contrast in structure may indicate separate ejection events. Using the angular expansion and Doppler velocities observed over four epochs spaced at one year intervals, we determine the distance to V723 Cas to be 3.85+0.23-0.21 kpc. We present the OSIRIS three-dimensional data here in many ways: as narrowband images, one- and two-dimensional spectra, and a volume rendering that reveals the true shape of the ejecta.

Cardiac control in the Pacific hagfish (Eptatretus stoutii)
Creators: name: Wilson, Christopher Mark
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: The Pacific hagfish (Eptatretus stoutii), being an extant ancestral craniate, possesses the most ancestral craniate-type heart with valved chambers, a response to increased filling pressure with increased stroke volume (Frank-Starling mechanism), and myogenic contractions. Unlike all other known craniate hearts, this heart receives no direct neural stimulation. Despite this, heart rate can vary four-fold during a prolonged, 36-h anoxic challenge followed by a normoxic recovery period, with heart rate decreasing in anoxia, and increasing beyond routine rates during recovery, a remarkable feat for an aneural heart. This thesis is a study of how the hagfish can regulate heart rate without the assistance of neural stimulation. A major role of hyperpolarization-activated cyclic nucleotide-activated (HCN) channels in heartbeat initiation was indicated by pharmacological application of zatebradine to spontaneously contracting, isolated hearts, which stopped atrial contraction and vastly reduced ventricular contraction. Tetrodotoxin inhibition of voltage-gated Na⁺ channels induced an atrioventricular block suggesting these channels play a role in cardiac conduction. Partial cloning of HCN channel mRNA extracted from hagfish hearts revealed six HCN isoforms, two hagfish representatives of vertebrate HCN2 (HCN2a and HCN2b), three of HCN3 (HCN3a, HCN3b and HCN3c) and one HCN4. Two paralogs of HCN3b were discovered, however, HCN3a dominated the expression of HCN isoforms followed by HCN4. All HCN isoforms bar HCN3b were dominantly expressed in the atrium, likely to support greater atrial excitability ensuring synchronous contractions. Phylogenetic analysis suggested that HCN3 is the ancestral isoform supporting previous observations. Studies with β-adrenoreceptor agonists and antagonists in isolated, spontaneously beating hearts showed that the routine normoxic heart rate may involve maximal catecholamine stimulation of heart rate through cAMP stimulation of HCN channels via transmembrane adenylyl cyclase (tmAC). Loss of this tonic β-adrenorecptor cardiac stimulation during anoxia reduces heart rate, but restoring β-adrenoreceptor stimulation during normoxic recovery does not produce the previously observed increase above routine heart rate in vivo. Instead, bicarbonate-stimulated, soluble adenylyl cyclase (sAC) mediated cAMP production was found to produce this tachycardia in addition to the reinstated tmAC produced cAMP. This is the first time sAC has been implicated in heart rate control.

A Robustness Test for Estimating Total Effects with Covariate Adjustment

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Suppose we want to estimate a total effect with covariate adjustment in a linear structural equation model. We have a causal graph to decide what covariates to adjust for, but are uncertain about the graph. Here, we propose a testing procedure, that exploits the fact that there are multiple valid adjustment sets for the target total effect in the causal graph, to perform a robustness check on the graph. If the test rejects, it is a strong indication that we should not rely on the graph. We discuss what mistakes in the graph our testing procedure can detect and which ones it cannot and develop two strategies on how to select a list of valid adjustment sets for the procedure. We also connect our result to the related econometrics literature on coefficient stability tests.

description: Cichorek et al. [Phys. Rev. Lett. 94, 107002 (2005)] reported enhancements of the lower critical field Hc1(T) and critical current in superconducting PrOs4Sb12 below a transition temperature Tc3 ~ 0.6 K, and speculated that this reflects a transition between superconducting phases. Features have been observed near Tc3 in other properties, but not in the specific heat. We report muon spin rotation measurements of the penetration depth in the vortex state of PrOs4Sb12 near Hc1(T), that to high accuracy exhibit no anomaly Tc3 and therefore cast doubt on the putative phase transition.

description: The device-independent framework constitutes the most pragmatic approach to quantum protocols that does not put any trust in their implementations. It requires all claims, about e.g. security, to be made at the level of the final classical data in hands of the end-users. This imposes a great challenge for determining attainable key rates in device-independent quantum key distribution (DIQKD), but also opens the door for consideration of eavesdropping attacks that stem from the possibility of a given data being just generated by a malicious third-party. In this work, we explore this path and present the convex-combination attack as an efficient, easy-to-use technique for upper-bounding DIQKD key rates. It allows verifying the accuracy of lower bounds on key rates for state-of-the-art protocols, whether involving one-way or two-way communication. In particular, we demonstrate with its help that the currently predicted constraints on the robustness of DIQKD protocols to experimental imperfections, such as the finite visibility or detection efficiency, are already very close to the ultimate tolerable thresholds.

Effects of dissipation in an adiabatic quantum search algorithm

description: We consider the effect of two different environments on the performance of the quantum adiabatic search algorithm, a thermal bath at finite temperature, and a structured environment similar to the one encountered in systems coupled to the electromagnetic field that exists within a photonic crystal. While for all the parameter regimes explored here, the algorithm performance is worsened by the contact with a thermal environment, the picture appears to be different when considering a structured environment. In this case we show that, by tuning the environment parameters to certain regimes, the algorithm performance can actually be improved with respect to the closed system case. Additionally, the relevance of considering the dissipation rates as complex quantities is discussed in both cases. More particularly, we find that the imaginary part of the rates can not be neglected with the usual argument that it simply amounts to an energy shift, and in fact influences crucially the system dynamics.

description: We introduce Hyperbard, a dataset of diverse relational data representations derived from Shakespeare's plays. Our representations range from simple graphs capturing character co-occurrence in single scenes to hypergraphs encoding complex communication settings and character contributions as hyperedges with edge-specific node weights. By making multiple intuitive representations readily available for experimentation, we facilitate rigorous representation robustness checks in graph learning, graph mining, and network analysis, highlighting the advantages and drawbacks of specific representations. Leveraging the data released in Hyperbard, we demonstrate that many solutions to popular graph mining problems are highly dependent on the representation choice, thus calling current graph curation practices into question. As an homage to our data source, and asserting that science can also be art, we present all our points in the form of a play.

description: For a system of two measures supported on a starlike set in the complex plane, we study asymptotic properties of associated multiple orthogonal polynomials $Q_{n}$ and their recurrence coefficients. These measures are assumed to form a Nikishin-type system, and the polynomials $Q_{n}$ satisfy a three-term recurrence relation of order three with positive coefficients. Under certain assumptions on the orthogonality measures, we prove that the sequence of ratios $\{Q_{n+1}/Q_{n}\}$ has four different periodic limits, and we describe these limits in terms of a conformal representation of a compact Riemann surface. Several relations are found involving these limiting functions and the limiting values of the recurrence coefficients. We also study the $n$th root asymptotic behavior and zero asymptotic distribution of $Q_{n}$.

Crucible-free Pulling of Germanium Crystals

Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)

description: Commonly, germanium crystals are grown after the Czochralski (CZ) method. The crucible-free pedestal and floating zone (FZ) methods, which are widely used for silicon growth, are hardly known to be investigated for germanium. The germanium melt is more than twice as dense as liquid silicon, which could destabilize a floating zone. Additionally, the lower melting point and the related lower radiative heat loss is shown to reduce the stability especially of the FZ process with the consequence of a screw-like crystal growth. We found that the lower heat radiation of Ge can be compensated by the increased convective cooling of a helium atmosphere instead of the argon ambient. Under these conditions, the screw-like growth could be avoided. Unfortunately, the helium cooling deteriorates the melting behavior of the feed rod. Spikes appear along the open melt front, which touch on the induction coil. In order to improve the melting behavior, we used a lamp as a second energy source as well as a mixture of Ar and He. With this, we found a final solution for growing stable crystals from germanium by using both gases in different parts of the furnace. The experimental work is accompanied by the simulation of the stationary temperature field. The commercially available software FEMAG-FZ is used for axisymmetric calculations. Another tool for process development is the lateral photo-voltage scanning (LPS), which can determine the shape of the solid-liquid phase boundary by analyzing the growth striations in a lateral cut of a grown crystal. In addition to improvements of the process, these measurements can be compared with the calculated results and, hence, conduce to validate the calculation.

title: The local origins of industrialisation
title: the case of the Derbyshire lead industry, c.1700-1830
titleType: Subtitle
Creators: name: Pawelski, Matthew Richard
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2019

description: This thesis explores the relationship between household and community ties
      and the process of industrialisation in Derbyshire during the eighteenth
      and early nineteenth centuries. Using a series of closely examined
      archival sources linked mainly to the local lead industry, it endeavours
      to provide new insights into the way in which households and communities
      operated, and contributed to processes of industrial and economic change.
      Networks of credit and trust are seen to have been particularly important
      in financing and organising industrial and commercial ventures. By
      reconstructing these local networks and retracing the webs of personal,
      familial and kinship relations, this thesis considers the continuing
      importance of sociability, community and reputation – usually studied in
      the context of the early modern era – in laying the foundations for
      precocious change in industrialising Derbyshire. Historical accounts of
      the Derbyshire lead industry have emphasised the long decline of the free
      mining community owing to the rise of capital-intensive mining in the late
      seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. In contrast, this thesis
      identifies the Derbyshire lead miners more as ‘middling’ artisans than as
      proletariats, and shows their continuing prominence in local society,
      their role as employers and entrepreneurs, and their monopoly of knowledge
      and skill in the mining trade even in the face of challenges from
      enlightenment knowledge. Based on the case of Derbyshire, this thesis
      argues therefore that far from suffering at the hands of industrialists
      and capitalists, household and community structures and relationships
      played a crucial role in processes of industrialisation and economic
      growth, helping to establish a degree of stability and regularity in an
      otherwise tumultuous and unpredictable period.

description: KEK electron positron injector LINAC initiated the injection operation into Photon Factory (PF) light source in 1982. Since then for 39 years, it has served for multiple projects, namely, TRISTAN, PF-AR, KEKB, and SuperKEKB. Its total operation time has accumulated 200 thousand hours on May 7, 2020. We are extremely proud of the achievement following continuous efforts by our seniors. The construction of the injector LINAC started in 1978, and it was commissioned for PF with 2.5 GeV electron in 1982. In parallel, the positron generator linac was constructed for the TRISTAN collider project. The slow positron facility was also commissioned in 1992. After the KEKB asymmetric-energy collider project was commissioned in 1998 with direct energy injections, the techniques such as two-bunch acceleration and simultaneous injection were developed. As the soft structure design of the LINAC was too weak against the great east Japan earthquake, it took three years to recover. Then the construction and commissioning for the SuperKEKB project went on, and the simultaneous top-up injection into four storage rings contributes to the both elementary particle physics and photon science.

description: We compute spectra of symmetric random matrices describing graphs with general modular structure and arbitrary inter- and intra-module degree distributions, subject only to the constraint of finite mean connectivities. We also evaluate spectra of a certain class of small-world matrices generated from random graphs by introducing short-cuts via additional random connectivity components. Both adjacency matrices and the associated graph Laplacians are investigated. For the Laplacians, we find Lifshitz type singular behaviour of the spectral density in a localised region of small $|λ|$ values. In the case of modular networks, we can identify contributions local densities of state from individual modules. For small-world networks, we find that the introduction of short cuts can lead to the creation of satellite bands outside the central band of extended states, exhibiting only localised states in the band-gaps. Results for the ensemble in the thermodynamic limit are in excellent agreement with those obtained via a cavity approach for large finite single instances, and with direct diagonalisation results.

Bivariate least squares linear regression: towards a unified analytic formalism

description: Concerning bivariate least squares linear regression, the classical approach pursued for functional models in earlier attempts is reviewed using a new formalism in terms of deviation (matrix) traces. Within the framework of classical error models, the dependent variable relates to the independent variable according to the usual additive model. Linear models of regression lines are considered in the general case of correlated errors in X and in Y for heteroscedastic data. The special case of (C) generalized orthogonal regression is considered in detail together with well known subcases. In the limit of homoscedastic data, the results determined for functional models are compared with their counterparts related to extreme structural models. While regression line slope and intercept estimators for functional and structural models necessarily coincide, the contrary holds for related variance estimators even if the residuals obey a Gaussian distribution, with a single exception. An example of astronomical application is considered, concerning the [O/H]-[Fe/H] empirical relations deduced from five samples related to different stars and/or different methods of oxygen abundance determination. For selected samples and assigned methods, different regression models yield consistent results within the errors for both heteroscedastic and homoscedastic data. Conversely, samples related to different methods produce discrepant results, due to the presence of (still undetected) systematic errors, which implies no definitive statement can be made at present. A comparison is also made between different expressions of regression line slope and intercept variance estimators, where fractional discrepancies are found to be not exceeding a few percent, which grows up to about 20% in presence of large dispersion data.

description: Recently, it has been demonstrated that neutrinos in a supernova oscillate collectively. This process occurs much deeper than the conventional matter-induced MSW effect and hence may have an impact on nucleosynthesis. In this paper we explore the effects of collective neutrino oscillations on the r-process, using representative late-time neutrino spectra and outflow models. We find that accurate modeling of the collective oscillations is essential for this analysis. As an illustration, the often-used "single-angle" approximation makes grossly inaccurate predictions for the yields in our setup. With the proper multiangle treatment, the effect of the oscillations is found to be less dramatic, but still significant. Since the oscillation patterns are sensitive to the details of the emitted fluxes and the sign of the neutrino mass hierarchy, so are the r-process yields. The magnitude of the effect also depends sensitively on the astrophysical conditions - in particular on the interplay between the time when nuclei begin to exist in significant numbers and the time when the collective oscillation begins. A more definitive understanding of the astrophysical conditions, and accurate modeling of the collective oscillations for those conditions, is necessary.

Morphological stasis and genetic divergence without reproductive isolation in the Rhinichthys cataractae species complex : insights from a zone of secondary contact in the lower Fraser Valley, British Columbia
Creators: name: Ruskey, Jennifer Anne
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: The Nooksack dace (Rhinichthys cataractae putative subspecies; NSD) and longnose dace (R. cataractae; LND) form a zone of post-glacial secondary contact in three streams in British Columbia's lower Fraser River valley, providing a valuable opportunity to study contact between populations separated during the Pleistocene glaciations. They are morphologically cryptic, despite an estimated 2-3 million years of separation. The NSD is currently listed as Endangered under Canada's Species at Risk Act (SARA) and my study clarifies its taxonomic and conservation status. NSD and LND have highly divergent mitochondrial DNA types, and dace carrying each mtDNA type have been found in roughly equal numbers in the zone of secondary contact. However, it was unknown whether this represented ongoing hybridization or reproductive isolation in sympatry. I conducted a morphological analysis using 11 morphometric measurements and two meristic characters (N = 582, 23 sampling locations) to uncover any subtle variation between the two dace, as well as to test for morphological intermediacy in the zone of sympatry. I then employed a 10-locus microsatellite DNA assay (N = 374, 12 sampling locations) to test for introgression between LND and NSD in the zone of secondary contact. I found that the two dace could not be reliably distinguished: there was overlap in all morphological characters measured, and both morphological and microsatellite analyses showed a greater effect of location than mtDNA clade, even when restricted to allopatric populations. There was no evidence of population structure within the sympatric populations, indicating complete admixture. The LND and NSD provide an example of "ephemeral speciation" - two lineages which, despite long separation, have developed no apparent barriers to reproduction and have collapsed into a single interbreeding population where they come into secondary contact. The zone of secondary contact should ideally be conserved for its evolutionary significance, and is a good illustration of the complicated patterns of diversification caused by the Pleistocene glaciations. However, while the NSD should be protected as a distinct designatable unit, it should not be considered a separate species, or even subspecies.

description: Under mild hypotheses, we prove that if F is a totally real field, k is the algebraic closure of the finite field with l elements and r : G_F --> GL_2(k) is irreducible and modular, then there is a finite solvable totally real extension F'/F such that r|_{G_F'} has a modular lift which is ordinary at each place dividing l. We deduce a similar result for r itself, under the assumption that at places v|l the representation r|_{G_F_v} is reducible. This allows us to deduce improvements to results in the literature on modularity lifting theorems for potentially Barsotti-Tate representations and the Buzzard-Diamond-Jarvis conjecture. The proof makes use of a novel lifting technique, going via rank 4 unitary groups.

Algorithm for PCR primer design in the DELEAT pipeline. Starting from a proposed deletion in the genome, a pair of 1000 bp-long “margins” is defined around the start and end coordinates, with 200 bp inside of the deletion and 800 outside. Next, two conditions are checked—that the margins do not contain neither target sites of the restriction enzyme selected for cloning, nor sequences longer than 20 bp that are repeated in the genome (in order to avoid undesired homologous recombination events). If any of these conditions is violated, the affected margin is shifted “inwards” (right in the case of margin 1 and left for 2) until the problematic position falls outside it. This process is repeated until both margins comply with the primer design rules. Once the final margin coordinates are obtained, functions from the Primer3-py package are used to generate a list of the best 20 primer pairs inside the margins. The best pair of PCR products is then decided as those generated from the best primer pairs and which do not form a restriction target site when concatenated, or have a size difference larger than 400 bp. These are the PCR products that will be used for the megapriming reaction. Figure S2. Value distributions of the six computed features for all genes in the training and test sets. Figure S3.

description: Utilizing $\sim 50$ ks of Chandra X-ray Observatory imaging, we present an analysis of the intracluster medium (ICM) and cavity system in the galaxy cluster RBS 797. In addition to the two previously known cavities in the cluster core, the new and deeper X-ray image has revealed additional structure associated with the active galactic nucleus (AGN). The surface brightness decrements of the two cavities are unusually large, and are consistent with elongated cavities lying close to our line-of-sight. We estimate a total AGN outburst energy and mean jet power of $\approx 3 - 6 \times 10^{60}$ erg and $\approx 3 - 6 \times 10^{45}$ erg s$^{-1}$, respectively, depending on the assumed geometrical configuration of the cavities. Thus, RBS 797 is apparently among the the most powerful AGN outbursts known in a cluster. The average mass accretion rate needed to power the AGN by accretion alone is $\sim 1 M_{\odot}$ yr$^{-1}$. We show that accretion of cold gas onto the AGN at this level is plausible, but that Bondi accretion of the hot atmosphere is probably not. The BCG harbors an unresolved, non-thermal nuclear X-ray source with a bolometric luminosity of $\approx 2 \times 10^{44}$ erg s$^{-1}$. The nuclear emission is probably associated with a rapidly-accreting, radiatively inefficient accretion flow. We present tentative evidence that star formation in the BCG is being triggered by the radio jets and suggest that the cavities may be driving weak shocks ($M \sim 1.5$) into the ICM, similar to the process in the galaxy cluster MS 0735.6+7421.

description: We consider the Wigner equation corresponding to a nonlinear Schroedinger evolution of the Hartree type in the semiclassical limit $\hbar\to 0$. Under appropriate assumptions on the initial data and the interaction potential, we show that the Wigner function is close in $L^2$ to its weak limit, the solution of the corresponding Vlasov equation. The strong approximation allows the construction of semiclassical operator-valued observables, approximating their quantum counterparts in Hilbert-Schmidt topology. The proof makes use of a pointwise-positivity manipulation, which seems necessary in working with the $L^2$ norm and the precise form of the nonlinearity. We employ the Husimi function as a pivot between the classical probability density and the Wigner function, which -- as it is well known -- is not pointwise positive in general.

description: We study a model of fully-packed dimer configurations (or perfect matchings) on a bipartite periodic graph that is two-dimensional but not planar. The graph is obtained from $\mathbb Z^2$ via the addition of an extensive number of extra edges that break planarity (but not bipartiteness). We prove that, if the weight $λ$ of the non-planar edges is small enough, a suitably defined height function scales on large distances to the Gaussian Free Field with a $λ$-dependent amplitude, that coincides with the anomalous exponent of dimer-dimer correlations. Because of non-planarity, Kasteleyn's theory does not apply: the model is not integrable. Rather, we map the model to a system of interacting lattice fermions in the Luttinger universality class, which we then analyze via fermionic Renormalization Group methods.

description: We consider a quasi-classical version of the Alicki-Fannes-Winter technique widely used for quantitative continuity analysis of characteristics of quantum systems and channels. This version allows us to obtain continuity bounds under constraints of different types for quantum states belonging to subsets of a special form that can be called "quasi-classical".
 Several applications of the proposed method are described. Among others, we obtain the universal continuity bound for the von Neumann entropy under the energy-type constraint which in the case of one-mode quantum oscillator is close to the specialized optimal continuity bound presented recently by Becker, Datta and Jabbour.
 We obtain semi-continuity bounds for the quantum conditional entropy of quantum-classical states and for the entanglement of formation in bipartite quantum systems with the rank/energy constraint imposed only on one state. Semi-continuity bounds for entropic characteristics of classical random variables and classical states of a multi-mode quantum oscillator are also obtained.

Spectroscopy at the solar limb: I. Average off-limb profiles and Doppler shifts of Ca II H

description: We present constraints on the structure of the chromosphere from observations of the Ca II H line profile near and off the solar limb. We obtained a data set of the Ca II H line in a field of view extending 20" across the limb. We analyzed the spectra for the properties of off-limb spectra. We used tracers of the Doppler shifts, such as the location of the absorption core, the ratio of the two emission peaks H2V and H2R, and intensity images at a fixed wavelength. The average off-limb profiles show a smooth variation with increasing limb distance. The line width increases up to a height of about 2 Mm above the limb. The profile shape is fairly symmetric with nearly identical H2V and H2R intensities; at a height of 5 Mm, it changes into a single Gaussian without emission peaks. We find that all off-limb spectra show large Doppler shifts that fluctuate on the smallest resolved spatial scales. The variation is more prominent in cuts parallel to the solar limb than on those perpendicular to it. As far as individual structures can be unequivocally identified at our spatial resolution, we find a specific relation between intensity enhancements and Doppler shifts: elongated brightenings are often flanked all along their extension by velocities in opposite directions. The average off-limb spectra of Ca II H present a good opportunity to test static chromospheric atmosphere models because they lack the photospheric contribution that is present in disk-center spectra. We suggest that the observed relation between intensity enhancements and Doppler shifts could be caused by waves propagating along the surfaces of flux tubes: an intrinsic twist of the flux tubes or a wave propagation inclined to the tube axis would cause a helical shape of the Doppler excursion, visible as opposite velocity at the sides of the flux tube.

description: The process-based semantic composition of Web Services is gaining a considerable momentum as an approach for the effective integration of distributed, heterogeneous, and autonomous applications. To compose Web Services semantically, we need an ontology. There are several ways of inserting semantics in Web Services. One of them consists of using description languages like OWL-S. In this paper, we introduce our work which consists in the proposition of a new model and the use of semantic matching technology for semantic and dynamic composition of ebXML business processes.
