Information Retrieval Systems normally deal with keywordbased technologies. Although those systems reach satisfactory results, they aren’t able to answer more complex queries done by users, especially those directly in natural language. To do that, there are the KnowledgeBased Systems, which…

We propose a framework for studying the effect of KDD on CRM in the Egyptian banking sector. We believe that the KDD process and applications may perform a significant role in Egyptian banks to improve CRM, in particular for customer…

We discuss how data mining, patternbases and databases can be integrated into inductive databases, which make data mining an inductive query process. We propose a software architecture for such inductive databases, and extend this architecture to support the clustering of…

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…

In the information age, knowledge leads to profits, power and success. As an ancestor of data mining, machine learning has concerned itself with discovery of new knowledge on its own. This paper presents experiment results produced by genetic algorithms in…

La historia del conocimiento que el mundo mediterráneo, primero Grecia y luego Roma,
tuvo de la India, comienza en forma paulatina con la llegada, por ejemplo, de objetos de
marfil. A partir de la expedición de Alejandro, tiempo en el…

This paper discusses questions about communication of probabilistic knowledge in the light of current theories of agent communication. It will argue that there is a semantic gap between these theories and research areas related to probabilistic knowledge representation and communication,…

Performance of parallel programs is one of the reasons of their development. The process of designing and programming a parallel application is a very hard task that requires the necessary knowledge for the detection of performance bottlenecks, and the corresponding…

El traspaso de la Modernidad a la Modernidad tardía ha supuesto sustanciales cambios en la economía y en la sociedad toda, que se han traducido en el traspaso de una sociedad incluyente a otra excluyente. Paralelamente, en el ámbito criminológico,…

In the software world portability means power. The more operating environments you can support out of the same code tree means more potential users for your software. If done right, additional platforms can be supported with little extra maintenance cost.…
