Se presenta una plataforma de recolección destinada a relacionar y unificar información disponible en distintos lugares de la Web-que siguen diferentes convenciones-para crear un repositorio temático que puedan navegar los usuarios. La plataforma será usada en el Servicio de Difusión…

This paper presents a proposal for an architecture that integrates knowledge discovery systems (automatic acquisition) and knowledge based systems (experts systems). This work formulates considerations over the viability of the implementation of this architecture according to the advance of the…

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…

Component Based Software Development (CBSD) relies upon utilization of previously developed software components OTS (Off-The-Shelf), which are appropriately merged to satisfy particular system requirements. However, wide acceptance of this paradigm at industry requires efficient component identification and selection, aspects which…

The following research proposes a first approximation to the Dynamic Hypermedial Device modeling based on the analysis of interactions. In addition, the DEVS (Discrete EVents dynamic Systems) formalism is employed, which is particularly suitable for the modeling of discrete event…

The paper presents a formal model for a knowledge repository shared by members of a Virtual Community of Practice (VCPs), describes how the repository can be used to underpin collaborative problem solving, and how to build computer support for such…

This article presents a procedure for constructing a taxonomy of COTS products in the field of Requirements Engineering (RE). The taxonomy and the obtained information reach transcendental benefits to the selection of systems and tools that aid to RE-related actors…

This paper presents a neuro-fuzzy network where all its parameters can be tuned simultaneously using Genetic Algorithms. The approach combines the merits of fuzzy logic theory, neural networks and genetic algorithms. The proposed neuro-fuzzy network does not require a priori…

Complex control tasks may be solved by dividing them into a more specific and more easily handled subtasks hierarchy. Several authors have demonstrated that the incremental layered evolution paradigm allows obtaining controllers capable of solving this type of tasks. In…

In the design of activities for Web-Based Education Systems, the concept of Didactic Object or Learning Object, has appeared as the axis of a new paradigm concerned with the reusability of contents and activities, due to its organization from a…
