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…

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…

Descoberta de Conhecimento em Bases de Dados" ("Knowledge Discovery in Databases", KDD) é um processo composto de várias fases iniciando com a coleta de dados para o problema e finalizando com a avaliação dos resultados finais. Este trabalho objetiva mostrar…

It is interesting and important to compare, analyze and assess the alternative tools that could be used in the area of Knowledge Representation. In this paper we present a reasearch line associated to this goal: to formally establish the relation…

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…

El rendimiento académico estudiantil ha sido definido como el cumplimiento de las metas, logros u objetivos establecidos en el programa o asignatura que está cursando el alumno.
Se puede analizar el rendimiento académico como una medida de las capacidades del…

La llegada de las Tics a la escuela, han provocado un cambio en los procesos de enseñanza y aprendizaje, como así también un cambio en el alumno que ahora es el principal protagonista de su conocimiento, y con lo cual,…

En [2] Gerhard Brewka realizó una reconstrucción de la Teoría de Disputación Formal de Nicholas Rescher [5]. En su trabajo, Brewka completó la formalización de la presentación de Dialectics:
A Controversy-Oriented Approach to the Theory 01 Knowledge. El formalismo no..monótono…
