Este artigo apresenta um algoritmo Cultural Extendido para o problema do Despacho Econômico. O Algoritmo Cultural têm cinco categorias de conhecimento. Este trabalho visa demonstrar a aplicação do conhecimento histórico, que objetiva monitorar a busca e armazenar os eventos importantes…

The Semantic Web attempts to reach a state in the future where everything on the Web will no longer be only machine-readable, but also machine-understandable. An ontology is an explicit specification of a conceptualization. A conceptualization is an abstract, simplified…

Collaborative systems are becoming a widely used tool particularly among professional communities and research groups. They provide a suitable context for distributed people working on the same subject to concentrate their work in a shared place to which everyone has…

In this paper, we present an approach to student's evaluation in a well-defined domain based on a semantic network. A similarity matrix based on the semantic memory structure of humans is used to build a semantic distance model in order…

This study investigates an approach of knowledge discovery and data mining in insufficient databases. An application of Computational Taxonomy analysis demonstrates that the approach is effective in such a data mining process. The approach is characterized by the use of…

A medida que o processo de desenvolvimento de software toma-se mais complexo, passa a ser imprescindível que os Ambientes de Desenvolvimento de Software (ADSs) ofereçam suporte inteligente para a execução das atividades do processo. Entretanto, a maioria dos ADSs com…

En el presente trabajo se presenta una propuesta de modelo de un Sistema Autónomo Inteligente (AIS) a través de una ontología sobre la base de la arquitectura LOPE-LC (Learning by Observation in Planning Environments, Life Cycle) con la incorporación de…

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,…

In this work we analyze the problem of knowledge representation in a collaborative multi-agent system where agents can obtain new information from others through communication. Namely, we analyze several approaches of belief revision in multi-agent systems. We will describe different…

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…
