The paper presents a case study illustrating a collaborative problem solving process in Virtual Communities of Practice. The process relies on the existence of an underlying shared knowledge base – a repository of resources, and is carried out collaboratively by…

James Reinders (Chief Evangelist of Intel® Software at Intel) and Jim Jeffers (Principal Engineer at Intel)
have gathered in this book the working knowledge of the people involved to prototype and productize the Intel® Xeon Phi coprocessor. This include…

La explotación de información es un elemento fundamental de un proceso más amplio que tiene como objetivo el descubrimiento de conocimiento en grandes bases de datos [Fayyad et al., 1996; Britos et al., 2005], en inglés “Knowledge Discovery in Databases”…

Most of the search engines available over the Web are based on mathematical approaches | classical techniques in the Information Retrieval area. Thereby, they are suitable for the retrieval of documents containing some or all the terms of a query,…

When using tableaux algorithms to reason about Description Logics (DLs), new information is inferred from the models considered while trying to achieve knowledge satisfiability. By focusing the ontology change problem, we consider an environment where DLs are the logical formalization…

Desde el Laboratorio Pericial Informático del Poder Judicial del Neuquén se impulsan actividades de I+D orientadas a la gestión del conocimiento aplicada al peritaje informático.
Se pretende generar un cuerpo de conocimientos que sea útil para la formación de profesionales…

In these days most robotic systems tend to be complex to maintain and reuse because existing frameworks are based mainly on code-driven approaches. This means the software development process is reduced to the implementation of systems using specific programming languages.…

Although current literature on learning styles shows that matching a teacher’s instructional style with the learning styles of students affects performance in a classroom environment, little is known about the influence of learning styles in online interaction. The paper argues…

Given an instance of an optimization problem together with an optimal solution, we consider the scenario in which this instance is modified locally. In graph problems, e. g., a singular edge might be removed or added, or an edge weight…

Decision making models for autonomous agents are recently receiving increased attention, particularly in the feld of intelligent robots. This work presents a Defeasible Logic Programming approach to decision making in an environment with single and multiple robots. We will show,…
