I have invented "Internet Fish," a novel class of resource-discovery tools designed to help users extract useful information from the Internet. Internet Fish (IFish) are semi-autonomous, persistent information brokers; users deploy individual IFish to gather and refine information related to…

Knowledge about the rates of pedogenic processes is essential to understand landscape development and history. It can be attained by the quantitative investigation of soil chronosequences. In this work, the development of Chromic Luvisols in the Mediterranean is addressed. The…

The reform of Spanish University System occurs for allow that the universities to board the needs derived from the new kinds of knowledge generation and transmission. The university’s objective is the formation of professionals capable of taking, analysing and elaborating…

This manual is intended to be a guide to the philosophy and use of the programming language CONNIVER, which is "complete," and running at the AI Lab now. It assumes good knowledge of LISP, but no knowledge of Micro-Planner, in…

The task objective is the generalization and implementation of the full power of the problem solving formalism PLANNER in the next two years. We will show how problem solving knowledge can be effectively incorporated into the formalism. Several domains will…

Current model-driven Web Engineering approaches (such as OO-H, UWE or WebML) provide a set of methods and supporting tools for a systematic design and development of Web applications. Each method addresses different concerns using separate models (content, navigation, presentation, business…

This paper presents AWAC, a prototype CAWE tool for the automatic generation of adaptive Web applications based on the A-OOH methodology. A-OOH (Adaptive OO-H) is an extension of the OO-H approach to support the modeling of personalized Websites. A-OOH allows…

Computing is a broad discipline that crosses the boundaries between mathematics, science, and engineering. New computing disciplines emerge over time and knowledge changes rapidly in computing. Therefore, several reports that define and update guidelines for computing curricula have appeared over…

Abstract: Since the discovery of conducting polymers in 1977, a new era of research work has escalated, with applications such as transistors, solar cells, logic circuits, sensors, etc. The materials can be chemically modified during their synthesis in order to…
