Current interactive multimedia learning software can not be accessed by learners with disabilities. This is the case for students with vision disabilities. Modeling techniques are necessary to map real world experiences to virtual worlds by using 3D auditory representations of…

About 10 years ago informatics teacher training did not seem to be too productive. Even though many students graduated, most of them chose well paid jobs as IT specialists rather than underpaid teacher positions in Hungary. What is then the…

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…

The success of personal information agents depends on their capacity to both identify relevant information for users and proactively recommend context-relevant information. In this paper, we propose an approach to enable proactive context-aware recommendation based on the knowledge of both…

Our research project intends to build knowledge about HPC problems to be able to help local researchers. In the general case, researchers who consult us do not own the sources to the parallel programs they run. In order to advise…

This paper presents a proposal for an architecture that integrates knowledge discovery systems (automatic acquisition) and knowledge based systems (experts systems). This work formulates considerations over the viability of the implementation of this architecture according to the advance of the…

In the last few years, several studies have emphasized the use of ontologies as an alternative to organization of the information.
The notion of ontology has become popular in fields such as intelligent information integration, information retrieval on the Internet,…

Since huge amounts of spatial data can be easily collected from various applications, ranging from remote sensing technology to geographical information system, the extraction and comprehension of spatial knowledge is a more and more important task. Many excellent studies on…

Universidad Nacional de La Plata (UNLP) Intellectual Creativity Diffusion Service (SeDiCI) was formed mainly to publicise the knowledge acquired at the different academic areas of our university, having the goal of restoring to the community the efforts expended on public…

This work describes the ontology construction process for the development of an Intelligent System for the Organization and Retrieval of Knowledge in Biodiversity – SISBIO. The system aims at the production of strategic information for the biofuel chain Two main…
