AbstractDue to aspect-oriented mechanisms explosion, their concepts arrive to distributed systems tackling concepts as security, persistence, or synchronization, especially in middleware approaches. Regarding distributed databases, the research has been focused mainly on object-oriented databases. Based on the great impact of…

The k nearest neighbor (k-NN) classifier has been extensively used in Pattern Recognition because of its simplicity and its good performance. However, in large datasets applications, the exhaustive k-NN classifier becomes impractical. Therefore, many fast k-NN classifiers have been developed;…

The aim of this work was to identify the characteristics of the drug information provided by the Drug Information Center (DIC) of a university hospital. A cross-sectional study was conducted, identifying the profile of information requests (IRs) from January 2008…

Bilayer vesicles, such as liposomes and niosomes, are widely known as efficient delivery systems for drugs. Spherical vesicles consisting of amphipatic non-ionic surfactants named niosomes are arranged in one or more concentric bilayers. They can entrap both water and oil…

E-mail texts are hard to process due to their short length. In this article, the use of a diffuse neural network that is capable of identifying the most relevant terms in a set of e-mails is proposed. The associations between…

Power systems monitoring is particularly challenging due to the presence of dynamic load changes in normal operation mode of network nodes, as well as the presence of both continuous and discrete variables, noisy information and lack or excess of data.…

Peer reinforcement in the classroom offers advantages. Research in this area suggests that peer reinforcement can be powerful tool to control nonacademic classroom behaviors. No evidence was found concerning the importance of some variables, such as "popularity" and positive social…
