This paper presents a data structure based on Sparse Spatial Selection (SSS) for similarity searching. An algorithm that tries periodically to adjust pivots to the use of database index is presented. This index is dynamic. In this way, it is…

Las poblaciones de altura se desarrollan en ambientes determinados por la disminución de la presión de oxígeno en el aire, a la que se suman características climáticas extremas, como intensa radiación solar, bajas temperaturas con gran amplitud térmica, extremada aridez…

Nowadays, data intensive applications are in constant demand and there is need of computing environments with better intelligent capabilities than those present in today's Database Management Systems (DBMS). To build such systems we need formalisms that can perform complicate inferences,…

An important problem in Mineralogy, is to accomplish an adequate representation of a great amount of data coming from different geological environments, in order to characterize a particular geologic region in terms of its tectonic setting. With such Databases of…

Most search methods in metric spaces assume that the topology of the object collection is reasonably regular. However, there exist nested metric spaces, where objects in the collection can be grouped into clusters or subspaces, in such a way that…

This paper focuses on prediction and prevention of seismic risk through a system for decision making. Data Warehousing and OLAP operations are applied, together with, data mining tools like association rules, decision trees and clustering to predict aspects such as…

El proyecto actual expone el diseño y la implementación de un prototipo de estación meteorológica remota, para el Observatorio Astronómico de Quito (O.A.Q.), con la finalidad de obtener información meteorológica del medio ambiente. De esta manera, esta dependencia de la…

Introduction: The nutritional registries are data bases through which we obtain the information to understand the nutrition of populations. Several main nutrition societies of the world have these types of registries, outstanding the NADYA (Home artificial and Ambulatory nutrition) group…

Este trabajo aporta nuevas evidencias sobre el impacto de las reformas comerciales sobre los salarios. En primer lugar, se introduce un modelo de comercio que combina un mecanismo de fijación de salarios no competitivo debido a la existencia de sindicatos,…
