A multiagent system (MAS) is made up of multiple interacting autonomous agents. It can be viewed as a society in which each agent performs its activity, cooperating to achieve common goals, or competing for them. Thus, every agent has the…

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…

The design of intelligent agents is greatly influenced by the many different models that exist to represent knowledge. It is essential that such agents have computationally adequate mechanisms to manage its knowledge, which more often than not is incomplete and/or…

Much effort has been dedicated to provide a general model of agents working in complex environments. This research focuses on the high level cognition used in determining the behavior of the agent.
The language of the Situation Calculus represents a…

The field of machine learning (ML) is concerned with the question of how to construct algorithms that automatically improve with experience. In recent years many successful ML applications have been developed, such as datamining programs, information-filtering systems, etc. Although ML…

Tardiness related objectives are of utmost importance in production systems when client satisfaction is a main goal of a company. These objectives measure the system response to the client requirements and rate manager´s performance In scheduling problems with diverse single…

Modeling is one of the most crucial activities during all the phases in any software development life cycle. Typically, system development is a very complex task, and working with models helps to handle this complexity in an organized way, allowing…

About fifteen years ago, the Electronic Engineering Department of the National Technological University of Buenos Aires was structured grouping the curricula in Knowledge Areas. One of them was the Digital Area. It was assumed that its contents should be changing…

Teniendo como marco de trabajo la cátedra de “Trabajo Profesional” de la Facultad de Ingeniería de la Universidad de Buenos Aires, se presenta una experiencia de desarrollo, en la que se trató de respetar el conocimiento teórico, el modelo así…

La finalidad de este proyecto es la de generar una metodología, con las técnicas y herramientas corerspondientes; para brindar información relativa al costo de desarrollo de un Sistema Experto. En base a la propuesta, los CIO´s (Chief Information Officer) podrán…
