The aim of this paper is to present an historical compendium of ISTEC’s activities in the region, highlighting its core ideas and principles, and how these have been successfully applied for the benefit of many higher education institutions. These aim…

The field of machine learning (ML) is concerned with the question of how to construct algorithms that automatically improve with experience. In recent years many successful ML applications have been developed, such as datamining programs, information-filtering systems, etc. Although ML…

There are many areas in Computer Science where time plays an important role. Artificial Intelligence is one of them. In this particular area Defeasible Logic Programming (DeLP) was developed to cope with incomplete and potentially inconsistent information. This formalism combines…

Nuestro trabajo parte de proyectos de Extensión Universitaria en el territorio costero de Berisso, a 15 km. de la Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias y Forestales de La Plata. La finalidad del proceso de intervención fue mejorar las condiciones socio-económicas de…

Argumentation systems have substantially evolved in the past few years, resulting in adequate tools to model
some forms of common sense reasoning. This has sprung a new set of argument-based applications in diverse
areas.
In previous work, we defined how…

Most of the current wireless sensor networks are built for specific applications, with a tight coupling between them and the underlying communication protocols. We present a more flexible architectural approach for building WSNs, in which application-specific features are decoupled from…

Current interactive multimedia learning software can not be accessed by learners with disabilities. This is the case for students with vision disabilities. Modeling techniques are necessary to map real world experiences to virtual worlds by using 3D auditory representations of…

Information systems play an ever-increasing key role in our society. In particular, data intensive applications are in constant demand and there is need of computing environments with much more intelligent capabilities than those present in today’s Data-base Management Systems (DBMS).…

Se describe con un modelo orientado a objetos la estructura de la Lógica Descriptiva ALCN, junto a esta formalización se plantea un diseño que determina la satifactibilidad de conceptos. Un concepto C es satifactible en una A (ABox), si A…

The ecological camp as a university extension project emerged in 2001 from the subject Sociology and Environmental Education in the course Environmental Engineering in the Agronomic Engineering School at National University of the East. It was designed as an environmental…
