Report
on IRI'2004
The 2004 IEEE International Conference on Information
Reuse and
Integration (IRI'2004) was held at the Las Vegas Hilton
on November 8-10,
2004. This second annual IRI conference was a very successful
event with
more than 110 participants. The conference received
168 submissions from 28 countries spread across five
continents. Among the submissions, 104 papers were selected
for publication and presented during the conference.

Application
of Advanced Control Strategy in Processing Industry
Continuous
processes in power plant and power station are complex
systems characterized by nonlinearity, uncertainty and
load disturbance. These factors, which usually make
the conventional PID control ineffective, need to be
taken into account in the design, development and tuning
of a distributed control system(DCS), or recently developed
field-bus control system(FCS).

Randomized
Techniques for Design Under Uncertainty
Engineering
design problems can often be cast as numerical optimization
prgrams where the designer goal is to minimize a cost
index (or maximize a utility index), subject to a set
of constraints on the decision variables. In particular,
a class of design problems that have both a theoretical
and a practical relevance are those where the minimization
objective and the constraints are convex functions of
the variables.

Extraction
and Grouping of the Visual Information from One or Multiple
Images
A central issue in computer vision and image analysis
areas is the grouping of visual content into meaningful
assemblies, extracted from one (image segmentation)
or multiple images (motion segmentation, image registration,
image retrieval). Here are presented some considerations
that arise in this context and the proposed solutions.
