A solution of problems in multiagent systems involves representing beliefs of agents immersed in dynamic environments. Observation-based Defeasible Logic Programming (ODeLP) is an argument-based logic programming language that is used to represent an agent’s knowledge in the context of a…

In the last decade several ways to formalize defeasible reasoning have been studied. A particular approach, defeasible argumentation, has been particularly successful to achieve this goal.
The inference process of argument-based systems is based on the interaction of ar- guments…

The notion of context and its importance in knowledge representation and nonmonotonic reasoning was first discussed in Artificial Intelligence by John McCarthy.
Ever since, contexts have found many applications in developing knowledge-based reasoning systems.
Defeasible argumentation has gained wide acceptance…

The problem of speeding up ínference has proved to be important in argumentative systems. When computing dialectical structures, several paths are searched (called argumentation lines), many of which will eventually prove useless. Morover, the performance of backward chainers degrades quickly…

This study aimed to trace the development of the implementation of knowledge management initiatives in the public sector institutions in Jordan. The study was compared with precedent study had been conducted in 2004. The results showed there is very little…

Even though knowledge in itself is nothing new, but how to effectively management it is a concern of all organizations, inclusive of university. In Iraq, there is concern by universities to manage knowledge scientifically in order to keep pace with…

For a more concrete analysis of the quantification of knowledge, one must normalize the quantification of data and information. One must, without entering into excessive detail, resort to the information theory, recognizing three features that data, information and knowledge have…

This research aims to test and analyze the impact of Information Technology Capability, Organizational Learning, and Knowledge Management Capability on Organizational Performance, as well as to provide academic horizon for  academics and practicing, and applicable references for  banking offices in…

Sustainability of natural resources has been an important part of people’s culture since creation. Managing these natural resources, particularly land, has been a major concern for a majority of peoples and governments in Sub-Saharan Africa. Land control and use as…

On a national (Australia) scale, there is limited rigorous research investigating and comparing the types of Web 2.0 (Social Media) technologies Australian university students and their lecturers are interacting with and using to communicate, collaborate, deliver, and retrieve course content.…
