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…

Quand le E-learning a émergé il ya 20 ans, cela consistait simplement en un texte affiché sur un écran d'ordinateur, comme un livre. Avec les changements et les progrès dans la technologie, le E-learning a parcouru un long chemin, maintenant…

A re-design process implies dealing with complex interactions between stakeholders, especially if we are talking about a personalization re-engineered process, which can be applied to an existing web application. In this context, knowledge becomes a main factor of influence, but…

A Gestão Social, como campo de conhecimento científico, vem se consolidando na última década do século XXI no Brasil. Existem cursos (extensão, graduação, especialização e mestrado) sobre o tema e periódicos especializados, tais como os Cadernos de Gestão Social e…

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…

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,…

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…

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…

Over the past decade, several prominent U.S.
organizations have suggested Americans – particularly
American students – should be more knowledgeable
about technology to be successful, well-rounded
citizens. However, these urgings have been made
largely in the absence of data about…

In questo articolo viene descritto un componente del sistema Anagrafe Nazionale delle Ricerche che consente l’integrazione dei dati dei brevetti EPO esportati dal software MIMOSA dell’European Patent Office (EPO). Il componente permette una migliore conoscenza dei soggetti iscritti all’anagrafe sotto…
