This paper addresses the problem of contour line extraction from scanned topographic maps in poor condition. A novel method is developed, using knowledge of cartography and graphics to extract contours by removing other layers which overlay the contours, and reconstructing…

The knowledge imperfections should be considered when modeling complex problems. A solution is to develop a model that reduces the complexity and another option is to represent the imperfections: uncertainty, vagueness and incompleteness in the knowledge base. This paper proposes…

El presente artículo trata la aplicación de un sistema experto capaz de determinar la factibilidad de funcionamiento de una máquina térmica desde el punto de vista termodinámico, mediante el análisis del diseño de un ciclo de potencia, el ciclo Joule…

In a production system it is usual to stress minimum tardiness to achieve higher client satisfaction.
According to the client relevance, job processing costs and requirements, and various other considerations, a weight is assigned to each job. An important, non-trivial,…

Our research project intends to build knowledge about HPC problems to be able to help local researchers. In order to advise users in choosing parallel machines to run their applications, we want to establish a general methodology, requiring as shallow…

Over the last several years, multidimensional data modeling has had several proposals for its formalisation; on the other hand, the incorporation of fuzzy logic in databases has increased the need to represent uncertainty.
However, to our knowledge, so far projects…

Presentation of a web collection platform designed to relate and unify information available on different standard web sources with a view to creating a userbrowseable thematic repository. The platform will be used at the Intellectual Creation Diffusion Service combined with…

In a defeasible argumentation formalism, an argument is used as a defeasible reason for supporting conclusions. A conclusion q will be considered valid only when the argument that supports it become a justification. Building a justification involves the construction of…

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…
