Introduction

From its creation, AxIS has developed several softwares validated experimentally on various applications::

• Data Mining and Web Usage Mining

  • Clustering and Classification toolbox (cf. 5.2.1 ),

  • SMDS, SCDS and ICDS, three clustering softwares for mining sequential patterns in data streams (cf. 5.2.2 ).

  • AWLH (AxIS Web Log House) for preprocessing Web logs (cf. 5.2.3 )

  • Cluster&Divide and Divide&Cluster, two methods for extracting Sequential Patterns with Low Support from Web logs (cf. 5.2.4 )

  • ATWUEDA (Axis Tool for Web Usage Evolving Data Analysis) (cf. 5.2.5 )

• Information Retrieval

  • CBR*Tools, an object-oriented platform for reusing experiences (requiring the management of historical data) (cf. 5.3.1 ),

  • Broadway*Tools for designing adaptive Web-based recommendation systems and collaborative information retrieval support (cf. 5.3.2 ).

• Other softwares (cf. 5.4 ): a) K-MADe, Kernel of Model for Activity Description environment, b) CLF for generating efficient parsers and c) Bibadmin for the management of a collection of publications.

In the context of the FocusLab platform (CPER Télius 8.1.2 ), we are studying the architecture of the software part and as a starting point the integration of relevant AxIS softwares and different ways to fund human ressources for the development..
