Essential to an audience driven website design philosophy is the organization of information and functionality according to the requirements of the different audience classes. However, at design time, it is often difficult to correctly assess the different needs and requirements…

Most current web engineering approaches don’t have clear criteria for personalization, nor a clear strategy that designers can use to classify users and formulate a personalization strategy for the web site at design time. In this paper, we present a…

Personalization of web sites has become an important issue in web modeling methods. Many of these methods use similar approaches to specify personalization. However even with similar (personalization) requirements the resulting implementations differ. The consequence is that we cannot reuse…

Web engineering software development is facing continuous changes in technology implementation. This involves analysts, developers and designers to provide extra effort in the design and maintenance of Web applications in order to adapt them to changes in requirements and implementation…

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…

Presentation of existing curricula connected with usability and accessibility at the University of Alicante for the Leonardo da Vinci project "GUI Usability and Accessibility: Exchanging Knowledge and Experiences" (Grenoble, France, 27 November 2012)., Presentación del currículo actual relacionado con la…

Data mining is at the core of the knowledge discovery process. However, an initial preprocessing step is crucial for assuring reliable results within this process. Preprocessing of data is a time-consuming and non-trivial task since data quality issues should be…

Obtaining an implementation of a data warehouse is a complex task that forces designers to acquire wide knowledge of the domain, thus requiring a high level of expertise and becoming it a prone-to-fail task. Based on our experience, we have…

In this paper, we present SEDiL, a Software for Edit Distance Learning. SEDiL is an innovative prototype implementation grouping together most of the state of the art methods that aim to automatically learn the parameters of string and tree edit…

El objetivo de KNOW2 es avanzar en el desarrollo de un entorno integrado que permita la implantación a bajo coste de portales verticales de acceso a la información para dominios concretos. El proyecto tiene una duración de tres años y…
