Data base management evolved during the sixties and seventies. The evolution period was protracted. Many driving forces impacted the evolution and it is the aim of this paper to analyze these driving forces (some technical and some political) and to…

This paper shows models of data description that incorporate uncertainty like models of data extension EER, IFO among others. These database modeling tools are compared with the pattern FuzzyEER proposed by us, which is an extension of the EER model…

In cases of extremely imbalanced dataset with high dimensions, standard machine learning techniques tend to be overwhelmed by the large classes. This paper rebalances skewed datasets by compressing the majority class. This approach combines Vector Quantization and Support Vector Machine…

Most information in science, engineering and business has been recorded in form of text. This information can be found online in the World-Wide-Web. One of the major tools to support information access are the search engines which usually use information…

Since huge amounts of spatial data can be easily collected from various applications, ranging from remote sensing technology to geographical information system, the extraction and comprehension of spatial knowledge is a more and more important task. Many excellent studies on…

Este artículo describe el diseño de tratamientos para pacientes contagiados con virus de inmunodeficiencia humana (VIH), usando técnicas de control robusto. La dinámica de la respuesta del sistema inmune ante la infección se mo-dela por medio de un sistema no…

Rinovirus y Enterovirus (polio, coxsackie, echovirus) son los dos tipos de picornavirus responsables del alto número de infecciones virales en humanos como el resfrío (o la gripe). Datos de Relación Estructura Actividad sobre antivirales indica que los heterociclos nitrogenados están…

Vertical partitioning, in which attributes of a relation are
assigned to partitions, is aimed at improving database
performance. We extend previous research that is based on
a single relation to multi-relation database environment,
by including referential integrity constraints, access time

This paper is an attempt to define how a
specific data structure might be used to
store, in a persistent manner, temporal
information during a computer simulation.
In particular, it considers the sort of
temporal information generated during a
discrete…

Este informe describe los resultados de un estudio in vitro en el que fueron evaluados comprimidos de nevirapina (200 mg) de diferentes laboratorios brasileros. El producto roiginal fue la refencia, en comparación con cinco productos similares (A, B, C, D…
