En este trabajo analizamos primeramente algunos de sus problemas fundantes y las proyecciones de tales tópicos en las…

The development of systems with the ability to reason about change notion and actions has been of great importance for the artificial intelligence community. The definition and implementation of systems capable of managing defeasible, incomplete, unreliable, or uncertain information has…

El presente artículo trata la aplicación de un sistema experto capaz de determinar la factibilidad de funcionamiento de una máquina térmica desde el punto de vista termodinámico, mediante el análisis del diseño de un ciclo de potencia, el ciclo Joule…

In this paper, we present a novel model of an artificial immune system (AIS), based on the process that suffers the T-Cell. The proposed model is used for solving constrained (numerical) optimization problems. The model operates on three populations: Virgins,…

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…

Objective – To investigate whether African American students’ computer attitudes predict levels of library anxiety.

Design – A user study in which two instruments were administered to a group of graduate students to measure computer attitudes and library anxiety.

Artificial neural networks (ANN) are very efficient in solving various kinds of problems But Lack of explanation capability (Black box nature of Neural Networks) is one of the most important reasons why artificial neural networks do not get necessary interest…

Objective – To describe critical care nurses’ on-duty information-seeking behavior.

Design – Participatory action research using ethnographic methods.

citizens. However, these urgings have been made
largely in the absence of data about…

This review discusses the present trends in studies on the impacts of climate change on plant diseases. Firstly, the approaches used for studying the potential effects of altered temperature, water availability, CO2 and O3 air concentrations, and UV-B radiation on…
