Knowledge-intensive processes are widely used to recover from errors, handle exceptional cases and complaints, and to improve or adapt a process itself. In this context, evolved Business-Process Reengineering (BPR) techniques are changing to give some answers to this reality. In…

When stakeholders are geographically distributed communication presents new challenges for software engineering community. In order to improve communication between stakeholders, we have previously proposed to apply learning style models to characterise the way people interact. In this work we enhance…

In omplete information is a problem in many aspe ts of a tual environments. Further- more, in many s enarios the knowledge is not represented in a risp way. It is ommon to nd fuzzy on epts or problems with…

Semantic Web is an extension of the current web in which data contained in the web documents are machine-understandable.
On the other hand, Web Services provide a new model of the web in which sites exchange dynamic information on demand.

The great advance of the communications and the importance gained by the mobile systems have increased the development of WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) applications, nevertheless at the present time do not exist methodologies specifically designed for the WAP applications development…

A Federated System is a collection of independent, cooperative, possibly heterogeneous and autonomous computer systems (usually database systems) which allows sharing all or some of its data. A Service-oriented Architecture is an application architecture whose functionalities are defined as independent…

Este artículo reporta el trabajo de investigación realizado en base a datos extraídos de la Encuesta Anual realizada por la CESSI durante el año 2007 entre organizaciones dedicadas al desarrollo de Software en Argentina. Si bien la temática de mejora…

Although researchers noted the importance of effective communication among stakeholders, it continues to be a challenge for requirements engineering. Communication can be considered as a management tool since communication allows organisation’s personnel to produce a cohesive enterprise view. In this…

Defining software requirements is a complex and difficult process, which often leads to costly project failures.
Requirements emerge from a collaborative and interactive negotiation process that involves heterogeneous stakeholders (people involved in an elicitation process such as users, analysts, developers,…

Certifying compilers use static information of a program to verify that it complies with certain security properties and to generate certified code. To do so, those compilers translate the source program into an annotated program written in some intermediate language.…
