Our interest is to define evolutionary algorithms to solve Constraint Satisfaction Problems (CSP), which indlude benefits of taditional resolution methods of CSPs as well as inherent characteristics of these kind of problems. In this paper we propose a criterion to…

Standard hardware, dedicated microcontroller or application specific circuits can implement fuzzy logic or neural network controllers. This paper presents efficient architecture approaches to develop controllers using specific circuits. A generator uses several tools that allow translating the initial problem specification…

The objective of this research is to develop a tool for the generation of 3D objects modeled with flexible materials, with visco-elastic or inelastic characteristics, similar to the plasticine. It is desirable to prioritize the simplicity of the interface with…

Implicitly exploitable parallelism for Logic Programming has received ample attention. Defeasible Argutmentation is specially apt for this optimizing technique. Defeasible Logic Programming (DLP), which is based on a defeasible argumentation formalism, could take full advantage of this type of parallel…

Interactive visualisation of triangulated terrain surfaces is still a problem for virtual reality systems. A polygonal model of very large terrain data requires a large number of triangles. The main problems are the representation rendering efficiency and the transmission over…

Niche formation allows evolutionary algorithms to be used when the location and maintenance of multiple solutions appertaining to diverse areas of the phenotypic space is required. Consequently the application field can be extended to multiobjective optimization, simulation of complex systems…

Negotiation is a basic mechanism for interaction that allows the members in a Multiagent System to coordinate their actions and to reach a favorable agreement. When agents are collaborative, the negotiation process progresses through a dialogue in which proposals and…

An updated edition of the classic book on computer architecture by J. L. Hennessy and D. A. Patterson.
Authors show their high level standards for technological ideas, writing style, and teaching methodologies, all in one book. In fact, they maintain…

The TTIGHa model has been developed to model
and predict the performance of parallel applications
run over heterogeneous architectures.
In addition, the task assignment algorithm was
implemented to MATEHa processors based on the
TTIGHa model.
This paper analyzes the assignment…

C# for Programmers (Second Edition) focuses on explaining the characteristics of this language through the development of desktop applications –and in some cases, web forms– with the step-by-step technique, developing study cases such as: • Basic application for an automatic…
