We develop a theory to explain the transition from stagnation to modern growth. We focus on the forces that shaped the evolution of total factor productivity in agriculture and manufacturing across history. More specifically, we build a multisector model of…

This paper describes an adaptive and autocalibrated method to track surfaces. To do so, a non time
dependent impedance control system is proposed. This method fuses visual and force information to track a
given trajectory maintaining the contact with the…

Los impactos ecológicos de las especies introducidas constituyen uno de los aspectos menos investigados de la ecología de las
invasiones, especialmente en Europa. La mayor parte de los estudios realizados se han restringido a especies que tienen un impacto
económico…

En este artículo, se presenta una propuesta con base en MDWE (Model Driven Web Engineering) para soportar trazabilidad (elemento-a-elemento) aplicando modelos weaving. El método de diseño Web A-OOH (Adaptive Object Oriented Hypermedia) es aplicado para representar el modelo de requisitos,…

El mes de diciembre de 1926 conoció una de las grandes situaciones de frío y nieve que han azotado las tierras ibéricas a lo largo del siglo XX. La nevada de las navidades de 1926-27 forma, junto a las oleadas…

Spatial data warehouses (SDW) rely on extended multidimensional (MD) models in order to provide decision makers with appropriate structures to intuitively analyse spatial data. Several SDW development approaches provide a conceptual modeling and some guidelines in order to obtain logical…

Reverse engineering is the process of discovering the technological principles of a device, object or system through analysis of its structure, function, and operation. From a device used in clinical practice, as the corneal topographer, reverse engineering will be used…

The methodology “b-learning” is a new teaching scenario and it requires the creation, adaptation and application of new learning tools searching the assimilation of new collaborative competences. In this context, it is well known the knowledge spirals, the situational leadership…

Diagnosis is an important process in patient care. A suitable diagnosis helps a physician determine a precise treatment. Physicians also have a tendency to seek collaboration from other colleagues and expert systems for better confidence in their decision. The sources…

This work presents the main theories and models formulated with the purpose of offering a global overview on the acquisition of knowledge and skills involved in the initial development of expert competence. Setting from this background, we developed an empirical…
