As a contribution to consider software projects to be risk investments, it is important the full standardization of either the planning methodology (as a subset of project management methodology) and the effort estimation method. We think there is important and…

In this paper, the two-dimensional strip packing problem with 3-stage level patterns is tackled using genetic algorithms (GAs). We evaluate the usefulness of a greedy seeding procedure for creating the initial population, incorporating problem knowledge. This is motivated by the…

A re-design process implies dealing with complex interactions between stakeholders, especially if we are talking about a personalization re-engineered process, which can be applied to an existing web application. In this context, knowledge becomes a main factor of influence, but…

La Gestión del Conocimiento abarca un conjunto de procesos que administra el conocimiento de las organizaciones. Logra aumentar la creatividad y garantizar el éxito organizacional, ya que se fundamenta en el recurso más valioso con que actualmente cuentan las instituciones:…

The appearance and continuous growth of virtual communities on the web imposes the challenge of coping with the large amount of information and knowledge these communities produce. The Semantic Web with its set of standards and technologies provides the basic…

In this work two declarative approaches based on the BDI theory are studied, an agent programming language 3APL and an agent architecture that uses defeasible argumentation for knowledge representation and reasoning. Based on that study and considering that in 3APL…

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…

There are many areas in Computer Science where time plays an important role. Artificial Intelligence is one of them. In this particular area Defeasible Logic Programming (DeLP) was developed to cope with incomplete and potentially inconsistent information. This formalism combines…

En esta comunicación presentaremos el trabajo que estamos realizando, centrado en la creación de entornos que permitan la construcción conjunta del conocimiento mediante herramientas informáticas, en concreto la herramienta Knowledge Forum como elemento mediador en el proceso de discusión y…

Hoy en día, se puede afirmar, que las organizaciones que son innovadoras son aquellas que construyen y gestionan efectivamente sus recursos intangibles. Así, aparece la necesidad ineludible de proporcionar a las organizaciones los conocimientos que necesitan, donde los necesiten, cómo…
