En un contexto educativo, hay esencialmente dos modos de aprovechar la capacidad de proceso y almacenamiento de una computadora: a) producir sistemas basados en el conocimiento (tales como servicios de Internet WWW, enciclopedias multimedia, etc.) en los que el usuario…

La Gestión del Conocimiento abarca un conjunto de procesos que administra el conocimiento de las organizaciones. Logra aumentar la creatividad y garantizar el éxito organizacional, ya que se fundamenta en el recurso más valioso con que actualmente cuentan las instituciones:…

Effective document retrieval using domain knowledge and semantics is one of the major challenges in Information Retrieval. Over the last years, there has been a growing interest in ontologies as an artifact for human knowledge representation and a critical component…

A fuzzy controller is usually designed by formulating the knowledge of a human expert into a set of linguistic variables and fuzzy rules. As it is well known, the use of prior knowledge can dramatically improve the performance and quality…

Este artigo descreve alguns princípios para a produção de objetos educacionais ergonômicos, os quais possibilitam a maximização do processamento dos conhecimentos propostos, evitando-se a sobrecarga cognitiva.
Nesse sentido, os educadores precisam ser capazes de apropriar-se das novas tecnologias para poderem…

There exists a large amount of knowledge representation models. But most of them have significant limitations at the epistemic level. They do not have explanatory power. Most of them do not have means to represent some functional needs to work…

Metrics used on development of expert systems is not a well investigated problem area. This article suggests some metrics to be used to measure the maturity of the conceptualization process and the complexity of the decision process in the problem…

Defeasible Logic Programming (DeLP) is an extension of Logic Programming capturing common-sense reasoning features. The DeLP language can manage defeasible reasoning, allowing the representation of defeasible and non- defeasible knowledge. Since DeLP syntax is based on a PROLOG-like notation, the…

En los últimos años han adquirido gran protagonismo en la enseñanza los conceptos de “redes de aprendizaje”, “trabajo cooperativo”, “trabajo colaborativo”, y otros tantos que hacen referencia a la importancia de las comunidades (con las negociaciones, acuerdos y desacuerdos, metas…

There are many areas in Computer Science where time plays an important role. Artificial Intelligence is one of them. In this particular area Defeasible Logic Programming (DeLP) was developed to cope with incomplete and potentially inconsistent information. This formalism combines…
