Las siguientes páginas apuntan a marcar la incidencia de otros modos discursivos de la narrativa a partir de una dupla de narradoras que han producido un cierto impacto en la creación literaria de la última década del siglo XX. Estos…

Options have been shown to be a key step in extending
reinforcement learning beyond low-level reactionary systems
to higher-level, planning systems. Most of the options
research involves hand-crafted options; there has been only very limited work in the automated discovery…

In this paper a slightly modification is proposed to the original Wong and Gotos ATA method for the computation of elementary functions in IEEE 754 single precision. The identification of a trade-off leads to the proposition of a different chunk…

This paper presents the Adesso, a computational environment for the development of scientific software. The Adesso environment leverages the reusable software component programming model to support the development and integration of components to several scientific programming platforms. The Adesso system…

Object-oriented software development has proven effective for systems development, but the creation of reusable and changeable software architectures is still a challenging task. Design patterns capture the expertise for reusable design solutions, but there is no methodical approach to providing…

Multiwavelets are new addition to the body of wavelet theory. There are many types of symmetric multiwavelets such as Geronimo-Hardin-Massopust (GHM) and Chui-Lian (CL) multiwavelets. However, the matrix filter generating the GHM system multiwavelets does not satisfy the symmetric property.…

Cache-coherent, nonumiform memory acces or cc-NUMA is an attractive architecture for building a spectrum of shared memory multiprocessors (whic are socing widespread use in commercial, technical and scientific applications). Unfortunately, there are some factors which limit the maximun number of…

This paper describes the advances obtained with the XPVM-W95 2.0, a novel monitoring tool for parallel applications that employ PVM-W95 (PVM for Windows) as well as PVM for Linux. The tool provides, at runtime, the appropriate information about parallel virtual…

Deadlock detection is one of the most discussed problems in the literature. Although several al- gorithms have been proposed, the problem is still open. In general, the correct operation of an algorithm depends on the requirement model being considered. This…

In this work an application of image enhancement techniques in fingerprints is presented. Digital Image-processing technology was applied to restored fingerprints with non-uniform contrast. These fingerprints corresponded to unidentified persons who were murdered by Military Forces in 1976. In 1997,…
