En este trabajo se propone un modelo fractal —la herramienta matemática empleada por Mandelbrot en el estudio de fenómenos naturales de nuestro entorno— para dar cuenta de la propagación de la ciencia desde una nueva perspectiva, lo que nos permite…

IP Networks, and particularly the Internet, were proposed to be a simple and robust support for heterogeneous communications. This implies that only basic controls have to be done by network elements. Connection management, along with transport, and more generally communication…

La imperiosa necesidad de abordar sistemáticamente y en forma continua acciones de evaluación (FODA), para efectos de diagnóstico en los programas de educación y conservación del ambiente, como la Misión Árbol, permite analizar los factores que tienen mayor preponderancia sobre…

Intelligent computing systems comprising microprocessor cores, memory and reconfigurable user-programmable logic represent a promising technology which is well-suited for applications such as digital signal and image processing, cryptography and encryption, etc. These applications employ frequently recursive algorithms which are particularly…

El conocimiento de los procesos que condujeron a una determinada realidad académica constituye un basamento indispensable para la elaboración de medidas tendientes a su mejora futura. En tal sentido aquí se estudian los procesos que conforman el camino que han…

The Answer Validation Exercise (AVE) is a pilot track within the Cross-Language Evaluation Forum (CLEF) 2006. The AVE competition provides an evaluation frame-
work for answer validations in Question Answering (QA). In our participation in AVE, we propose a system…

ABSTRACT: Soil compactation is problem in modern agriculture. Over cultivation, intensive cropping and inappropriate soil management leads to soil compactation. There are important factors which directly affect plant growth, such as water, oxygen, temperature and mechanical resistance to seedling emergence…

A proposta deste trabalho é utilizar técnicas de mineração de dados (data mining), também conhecida como processo de descoberta de conhecimento em bases de dados (Knowledge Discovery in Databases, KDD), para encontrar padrões em bases de dados relacionadas com a…

ABSTRACT: Insects commonly well-known as white grubs are the larval phase of beetles that belong to the Melolonthidae (Coleoptera). This family contains an expressive number of insect species that have different bioecological functions in the agroecosystems in the adult and…

Detrás de la actual crisis ambiental está nuestra limitada comprensión de los procesos ecológicos y sociales que operan a escalas espacio-temporales amplias. Esta falta de conocimiento ha desencadenado fallos en los esquemas de manejo y utilización de los servicios y…
