Knowledge-intensive processes are widely used to recover from errors, handle exceptional cases and complaints, and to improve or adapt a process itself. In this context, evolved Business-Process Reengineering (BPR) techniques are changing to give some answers to this reality. In…

When stakeholders are geographically distributed communication presents new challenges for software engineering community. In order to improve communication between stakeholders, we have previously proposed to apply learning style models to characterise the way people interact. In this work we enhance…

In omplete information is a problem in many aspe ts of a tual environments. Further- more, in many s enarios the knowledge is not represented in a risp way. It is ommon to nd fuzzy on epts or problems with…

Semantic Web is an extension of the current web in which data contained in the web documents are machine-understandable.
On the other hand, Web Services provide a new model of the web in which sites exchange dynamic information on demand.

The great advance of the communications and the importance gained by the mobile systems have increased the development of WAP (Wireless Application Protocol) applications, nevertheless at the present time do not exist methodologies specifically designed for the WAP applications development…

Se comprobó el efecto antiulcerogénico del extracto crudo hidroalcólico (70%) de las hojas de Aster squamatus (ECH) frente a úlceras inducidas por etanol, indometacina y estrés
provocado por el frío. El ECH (500 y 1000mg/kg) redujo el índice de la…

El objeto de este estudio fue el aislamiento y la caracterización de atranorina, uno de los principales constituyentes presentes en Cladina dendroides (des Abb.) y analizar su efecto antinociceptivo. La actividad antinociceptiva fue verificada por medio del ensayo en ratones…

This article describes strategies devised to improve the efficiency of two classical index data structures for parallel textual databases. The design and cost evaluation is effected on top of the bulk-synchronous model of parallel computing. This allows us to compare…

The Web has became an obiquitous resource for distributed computing making it relevant to investigate new ways of providing efficient access to services available at dedicated sites. Efficiency is an ever-increasing demand which can be only satisfied with the development…

Applying design patterns is considered a helpful technique for designing software systems.
Patterns description, however, results not sufficiently precise providing a weak understanding and making it difficult to be certain when a pattern is being used correctly. We have formally…
