This paper shows models of data description that incorporate uncertainty like models of data extension EER, IFO among others. These database modeling tools are compared with the pattern FuzzyEER proposed by us, which is an extension of the EER model…

The structured techniques for systems analysis and design are still the most widely known. One of the alternatives of this technique is the JAD methodology (Joint Application Design). This methodology is an improvement with respect to the existing ones -…

Most search methods in metric spaces assume that the topology of the object collection is reasonably regular. However, there exist nested metric spaces, where objects in the collection can be grouped into clusters or subspaces, in such a way that…

Numerical Taxonomy aims to group in clusters, using so-called structure analysis of operational taxonomic units (OTUs or taxons or taxa) through numerical methods.
These clusters constitute families. Structural analysis, based on their phenotypic characteristics, exhibits the relationships, in terms of…

The Standardization of a development process for systems of medium complexity, entirely supported by an integrated development environment, could mean a double contribution to the industry of systems development. On the one hand it would contribute to the reduction of…

This document describes a research and development project - Semantic Web and Cooperative Problem Solving for Online Communities of Practice. The aim of the project is to build a system supporting Cooperative Problem Solving within the framework of online Communities…

This paper describes an approach to On Line Analytical Processing (OLAP), expresed in the declarative programming paradigm.
We define a collection of functions that capture some of the functionality currently provided by multidimensional database product. This is done by defining…

La obtención de conocimiento a partir de la información existente es un proceso no trivial que consiste en identificar patrones válidos, novedosos, potencialmente útiles y comprensibles a partir de los datos disponibles. La Minería de Datos es el área de…

Ensuring the correctness of a given software component has become a crucial aspect in Software Engineering and the Model Checking technique provides a fully automated way to achieve this goal. In particular, the usage of Model Checking in formal languages…

Electronic Government applications aim to deliver efficient, seamless, customer-focused services to the public using various distribution channels. One of challenges in building such applications is the requirement to rely upon preexisting, often heterogeneous government applications. In order to enable communication…
