Parallel machine scheduling, involves the allocation of jobs to the system resources (a bank of machines in parallel). A basic model consisting of m machines and n jobs is the foundation of more complex models. Here, jobs are allocated according…

El Noreste de la provincia de Buenos Aires corresponde a un ambiente llano con pendientes muy bajas, donde tienen gran relevancia los movimientos verticales del agua, resultando de especial interés los procesos de recarga ya que constituyen la principal fuente…

El campo de la glicobiología incluye el estudio de los glicoconjugados, las enzimas que catalizan su síntesis y las lectinas que los reconocen. Los monosacáridos, que intervienen en su composición, pueden combinarse en varios puntos y form ar estructuras lineales…

A re-design process implies dealing with complex interactions between stakeholders, especially if we are talking about a personalization re-engineered process, which can be applied to an existing web application. In this context, knowledge becomes a main factor of influence, but…

Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are merely blind search algorithms, which only make use of the relative fitness of solutions, but completely ignore the nature of the problem. Their performance can be improved by using new multirecombinative approaches, which provide a good…

The goal of this work involves the developing of an argumentation-based formalism that an agent could use for constructing plans. In this formalism, agents will have certain knowledge about the world, and a set of actions that they will be…

This work extends the semantics and implementation of fuzzy prolog presented in [VGM02] in order to include Default Knowledge capability. The new semantic allows non-uniform default assumptions and has Closed World Assumption (CWA) and Open World Assumption (OWA) as particular…

El objetivo central de esta línea de investigación consiste en proponer distintas metodologías formales para representar el conocimiento en diversos sistemas argumentativos.
Como todo sistema simbólico, los sistemas argumentativos emulan el proceso de razonamiento como una manipulación dediversos símbolos. Esto…

In this article we will introduce certain considerations that must be taken into account while implementing the change operations of the belief change theory. The abstract models of bellief change make no considerations in respecto to the internal structures of…

Knowledge-intensive processes are widely used to recover from errors, handle exceptional cases and complaints, and to improve or adapt a process itself. In this context, evolved Business-Process Reengineering (BPR) techniques are changing to give some answers to this reality. In…
