Most unsupervised indigenous knowledge (IK) are known to be very useful in combating critical health issues as well as being dangerous if the administration is abused. Despite the fact that these locally prepared herbal medicine are not encouraged to be…

Las metodologías de desarrollo de sistemas de información, hacen mención de un conocimiento denominado “entendimiento del negocio”. Si bien en algunas se explicita este tipo de conocimiento, ninguna de ellas describe que información debe ser relevada para alcanzar dicho conocimiento,…

In this paper, we build on previous work on Belief Revision operators based on the use of logic programming with Answer Set semantics as a representation language. We present a set of postulates for Answer Set Revision with respect to…

In this paper, we present an approach to student's evaluation in a well-defined domain based on a semantic network. A similarity matrix based on the semantic memory structure of humans is used to build a semantic distance model in order…

Most formalisms for representing common-sense knowledge allow incomplete and potentially inconsistent information. When strong negation is also allowed, contradictory conclusions can arise. A criterion for deciding between them is needed. The aim of this paper is to investigate an inherent…

Inside an organization there is information that can only be generated by people, then, when a decision maker in any time and anywhere of an organization requires this information, he/she has to solicit it to who has the ability of…

In this work we present an approach to model an action-oriented system controlled by BDI agents using a defeasible argumentation formalism to represent its knowledge. Here, our main concern will be modelling the software agents that drive the physical robots.

Reflete sobre o papel das bibliotecas públicas na educação de usuários para o conhecimento da ciberviolência. Tal fenômeno é expresso através das Tecnologias de Informação e Comunicação (TIC), as quais são utilizadas para causar danos às vítimas. O trabalho fundamenta-se…

Over the last several years, multidimensional data modeling has had several proposals for its formalisation; on the other hand, the incorporation of fuzzy logic in databases has increased the need to represent uncertainty.
However, to our knowledge, so far projects…

The development of isolated agents involves the manipulation of components such as actions, mental attitudes and decisions. Multi-agent systems have to deal with these components from different agents, without to forget the privacy and autonomy of each agent. For programming…
