Rough Sets Theory has opened new trends for the development of the Incomplete Information Theory. Inside this one, the notion of reduct is a very significant one, but to obtain a reduct in a decision system is an expensive computing…

El proceso de Educción de Requisitos para Proyectos de Explotación de Información, contempla la realización de un conjunto de plantillas que se utilizan para documentar los conceptos educidos durante las primeras fases del proyecto. Por otro lado, la Ingeniería del…

Frequently we become amazed with the increasing number of problems to be solved that fiourish while facing daily activities. Often, related to these problems we llave also an incredible amount oí data. Since we cannot allways afford time and resources…

About fifteen years ago, the Electronic Engineering Department of the National Technological University of Buenos Aires was structured grouping the curricula in Knowledge Areas. One of them was the Digital Area. It was assumed that its contents should be changing…

The area of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning has been enriched during the past two decades with the addition of Argument-Based Reasoning Systems. In formal systems of defeasible argumentation, arguments for and against a proposition are produced and evaluated to test…

Las perspectivas para la Ingeniería del Software (IS) y del Conocimiento (IC) conducen hacia un desarrollo conjunto que permita la construcción de sistemas que integren software convencional (SC) y software basado en conocimientos.

Alcanzado este punto, los desarrolladores de…

Los modelos de ciclo de vida actuales tienden a presentar, normalmente, cierta linealidad en su dinámica asociada. El presente trabajo tiene por objetivo, a través de interrelacionar diversas áreas del conocimiento, mostrar que el continuum, casi siempre, no se corresponde…

In the last few years, several studies have emphasized the use of ontologies as an alternative to organization of the information.
The notion of ontology has become popular in fields such as intelligent information integration, information retrieval on the Internet,…

In the restricted single-machine common due date problem the goal is to find a schedule for the n jobs which jointly minimizes the sum of earliness and tardiness penalties, while for the weighted tardiness problem the goal is to find…

Evolutionary algorithms (EAs) are merely blind search algorithms, which only make use of the relative fitness of solutions, but completely ignore the nature of the problem. Their performance can be improved by using new multirecombinative approaches, which provide a good…
