There exists a large amount of knowledge representation models. But most of them have significant limitations at the epistemic level. They do not have explanatory power. Most of them do not have means to represent some functional needs to work…

Este artigo descreve alguns princípios para a produção de objetos educacionais ergonômicos, os quais possibilitam a maximização do processamento dos conhecimentos propostos, evitando-se a sobrecarga cognitiva.
Nesse sentido, os educadores precisam ser capazes de apropriar-se das novas tecnologias para poderem…

A multi-agent system is made up of multiple interacting autonomous agents. It can be viewed as a society in which each agent performs its activity cooperating to achieve common goals, or competing for them. They establish dialogues via some kind…

The aim of this work is to relate two apparently independent concepts as belief revision and relevance. We propose a formal characterization for the notion of (ir)relevance by means of a set of postulates. Then we define (ir)relevance using change…

The matrix connection method (MCM) is an alternative procedure for theorem proving than the usual resolution technique. We already have used the MCM for finding models in a real-time knowledge-based system generator. In this paper, we adapt the MCM to…

Robotic soccer is a way of putting different developments in intelligent agents into practice, including not only problems such as multi-agent planning and coordination, but also physical problems related to vision and communication subsystems. In this work, we present the…

We faced with a society identified as a knowledge society, characterized by the rapid development of scientific and technological knowledge, the trends to new ways of working, studying, creating and sharing knowledge, is seen in organizations, and particularly in the…

The following research proposes a first approximation to the Dynamic Hypermedial Device modeling based on the analysis of interactions. In addition, the DEVS (Discrete EVents dynamic Systems) formalism is employed, which is particularly suitable for the modeling of discrete event…

El objeto de este trabajo es mostrar dos problemas básicos que obstaculizan la producción
de didácticas para las ciencias jurídicas. El primero de estos problemas lo constituyen los
usos de la ética, y la conciencia, definitorios tanto de la enseñanza…

Ontology integration is the problem of combining data sources in the SemanticWeb. Concepts in source ontologies are captured in terms of concepts de ned in a global ontology. When some of these ontologies are inconsistent, the knowledge engineer often has…
