In this paper, a restricted domain question answering (QA) system is described. The design architecture of this QA system and the features that allow the adaptation of the QA system to the medical domain are also presented. The advantages of…

L’objectif de ce mémoire est de faire un état des lieux des connaissances produites sur les risques environnementaux et la vulnérabilité et appliquer ces connaissances à la ville de Kigali (Rwanda). Après avoir présenté différentes approches, nous avons retenu le…

In this paper an adaptive fuzzy decentralized
control algorithm for trajectory tracking of robot manipulators is developed. The proposed decentralized control algorithm allows the overall closed-loop system to be stabilized while making the tracking error to be uniformly ultimately bounded…

Using the underlying idea of the current-mode control, a new dynamical, sliding-mode control for the boost dc-dc converter is proposed. Such controller is easy to design, robust under load and input voltage variations, exhibits fast response, does not depend on…

The ambiguity, robustness and performance of systems becomes increasingly evident as the complexity and size increase in industrial processes. Under these circumstances, conventional control techniques such as PID control, nonlinear feedback control, LQG control and H∞ control have several disadvantages…

This document describes a general structure for the implementation of virtual tools for remote calculation through Internet. Two virtual tools for mathematical analysis
(Analys) and simulation of dynamic systems (SimWeb), supported by the Matlab c, are described. These virtual tools,…

Žinių samprata yra sudėtinga, įvairi ir daugiaprasmė. Moksliniu požiūriu žinių prigimtį ir esmę jau keletą dešimtmečių tyrinėja įvairių sričių mokslininkai, tačiau iki šiol nėra sukurtos visuotinai pripažintos žinių potencialo vertinimo metodikos, vartojamos skirtingos sąvokos, nesutariama, kokie veiksniai yra esminiai vertinant…

Emerging international research suggests that
enhancing teacher-student assessment for learning
(AfL) interactions is a key to enhancing student
learning. Planning frameworks that make explicit the
multiple dimensions of technology can be used to
extend teacher knowledge and focus interaction.
Effective…

With this article, we wish to make a contribution to the
ongoing debate about the nature of technological literacy,
by sharing our views of what goals are important to strive
for within technology as a school subject in compulsory
school,…
