Social knowledge is one of the key aspects of MAS in order to face complex problems in dynamical environments. However, it is usually incorporated without specific support on behalf of the platform and that does not let agents take all…

Computing is a broad discipline that crosses the boundaries between mathematics, science, and engineering. New computing disciplines emerge over time and knowledge changes rapidly in computing. Therefore, several reports that define and update guidelines for computing curricula have appeared over…

This paper outlines and exemplifies the features of Learning Study, a form of teacher action research which has the potential to create the conditions necessary for building pedagogical knowledge. Learning Study is a coalescence of lesson study, design based research…

In this paper we introduce a probabilistic approach to support visual supervision and gesture recognition. Task knowledge is both of geometric and visual nature and it is encoded in parametric eigenspaces. Learning processes for compute modal subspaces (eigenspaces) are the…

There are different approaches used by mathematics teacher educators to help pre-service primary teachers develop the useful skills and knowledge required to teach mathematics. One of these approaches is concerned to learning to notice relevant aspects in mathematics teaching. But…

Several surveys have indicated that many data warehouses fail to meet business objectives or are outright failures. One reason for this is that requirement engineering is typically overlooked in real projects. This paper addresses data warehouse design from a business…

The purpose of this study is to assess the technical-tactical knowledge of high performance soccer players. The sport performance of sixteen 14-year-olds who play for the Spanish soccer club Albacete Balompie was analysed in a modified game as “seven-a-side match”…

The development of a data warehouse (DW) system is based on a conceptual multidimensional model, which provides a high level of abstraction in accurately and expressively describing real-world situations. Once this model is designed, the corresponding logical representation must be…

Purpose – Information and communication technologies have became pervasive in people’s lives and in this changing world education cannot remain anchored in old-fashioned models which ignore the evolution through which society is going. This paper seeks to present the gamble…

In this study I deal with the conception of "elocutio" as described and explained in the "Institutio oratoria". My main point of view is the semiotic one, since the analysis of syntactic, semantic, and pragmatic aspects of this rhetorical operation…
