El objetivo del proyecto Portal da Língua Portuguesa es construir, con un doble
objetivo, un juego de recursos léxicos. En primer lugar, estos recursos sirven como fuente de
información para una página web sobre la lengua portuguesa para el público…

DATA QUALITY IS DEGRADED DURING THE PROCESS OF EXTRACTING AND MERGING DATA FROM MULTIPLE HETEROGENEOUS SOURCES. BESIDES, USERS HAVE NO INFORMATION REGARDING THE QUALITY OF THE ACCESSED DATA. THIS DOCUMENT PRESENTS THE METHODS UTILIZED TO ASSESS DATA QUALITY AT MULTIPLE…

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…

Similarity search is a fundamental operation for applications that deal with unstructured data sources. In this paper we propose a new pivot-based method for similarity search, called Sparse Spatial Selection (SSS).
The main characteristic of this method is that it…

The metric spaces model formalizes the similarity search concept in nontraditional databases. The goal is to build an index designed to save distance computations when answering similarity queries later. A large class of algorithms to build the index are based…

Se realizó el estudio termoanalítico del atenolol puro y de comprimidos comerciales utilizando técnicas de termogravimetría (TG) y calorimetría diferencial de barrido (DSC). El método no isotérmico fue empleado para determinar los datos cinéticos del proceso de descomposición. Para evaluar…

In situ hybridization (ISH) method allows to reveal specific genes expression, identify specific cell types and detect areas or tissues, displaying differential gene expression. This work describes a standardized procedure of digital image processing that allows detailed analyses of ISH…

Durante la preparación de la selección junior autonómica de remo (Comunidad Valenciana, España), se recogieron las características antropométricas de 18 remeros junior masculinos de edad 17,83±3,83 años. A los remeros se le realizaron una valoración anthropometry mediante la técnica basadas…

THE DISASTERS CAUSED BY NATURAL PHENOMENA HAVE BEEN PRESENT ALL ALONG HUMAN HISTORY; NEVERTHELESS, THEIR CONSEQUENCES ARE GREATER EACH TIME. THIS TENDENCY WILL NOT BE REVERTED IN THE COMING YEARS; ON THE CONTRARY, IT IS EXPECTED THAT NATURAL PHENOMENA WILL…
