The region of Huatusco, in Veracruz, Mexico, is an area of high coffee production. Coffee trees are sensitive to temperature and precipitation variations. Those climatic elements are related to the altitude, aspect and slope it? the agroecological shadow system. A…

Intelligent computing systems comprising microprocessor cores, memory and reconfigurable user-programmable logic represent a promising technology which is well-suited for applications such as digital signal and image processing, cryptography and encryption, etc. These applications employ frequently recursive algorithms which are particularly…

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…

In this paper a new conception of science is defined, which opposes apocalyptic points of view —science is a perverse knowledge leading to world destruction—, to irenist points of view —science is an armonic knowledge, as a puzzle where we…

The knowledge imperfections should be considered when modeling complex problems. A solution is to develop a model that reduces the complexity and another option is to represent the imperfections: uncertainty, vagueness and incompleteness in the knowledge base. This paper proposes…

En los últimos años han adquirido gran protagonismo en la enseñanza los conceptos de “redes de aprendizaje”, “trabajo cooperativo”, “trabajo colaborativo”, y otros tantos que hacen referencia a la importancia de las comunidades (con las negociaciones, acuerdos y desacuerdos, metas…

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…

The knowledge that consumers have of products and services as well as other factors serves as an indicator as to which product or store to “pick”. The products and store location add to the ease with which consumers are able…
