The appearance and continuous growth of virtual communities on the web imposes the challenge of coping with the large amount of information and knowledge these communities produce. The Semantic Web with its set of standa...

The network society (Van Dijk, 2020) has completely blurred the traditional difference between virtual and real life, Our day to day is increasingly characterised by our continuous connection to the Internet, Multiple da...

Natural language understanding systems require a knowledge base provided with formal representations reflecting the structure of human beings' cognitive system. Although surface semantics can be sufficient in some other ...

Discover the potential of "Digital Technologies in English Studies and Research," exploring the use of digital tools in this academic field. Learn about databases and electronic libraries, start using bibliographic manag...

Progress towards gender equality in Europe has been very significant over the last century, however, there is still room for improvement in some of the key dimensions. The EU Gender Equality Strategy 2020-2025 calls for ...

In light of today's extensive use of digital communication, this volume focuses on how to understand and manage the various types of linguistically-based products that facilitate the use and extraction of information. In...

The present volume represents a compilation of international teacher education practice and research with a focus on Teacher Education for Contemporary Contexts. It draws upon the diverse educational perspectives, teachi...

Abstract How has Japan become a major economic power, a world leader in the automotive and electronics industries? What is the secret of their success? The consensus has been that, though the Japanese are not particularl...

Se realiza una reseña del libro capítulo por capítulo. Los títulos de los capítulos son (en inglés): Chapter 1 - The Risky Promises and Promising Risks of New Information Technologies for Education Chapter 2 -...

Information Retrieval Systems normally deal with keywordbased technologies. Although those systems reach satisfactory results, they aren’t able to answer more complex queries done by users, especially those directly in...

Classical knowledge production is an author-centered process. The emergence of cooperative internet technologies such as wikis or blogs shows a shift towards stronger cooperative production and communication of knowledge...

Most of the current wireless sensor networks are built for specific applications, with a tight coupling between them and the underlying communication protocols. We present a more flexible architectural approach for build...

This paper presents a proposal for an architecture that integrates knowledge discovery systems (automatic acquisition) and knowledge based systems (experts systems). This work formulates considerations over the viability...

This paper examines the dynamics of allocation under increasing returns within a model where agents choose between technologies competing for adoption and where each technology improves as it gains in adoption. It shows ...

Collaborative systems are becoming a widely used tool particularly among professional communities and research groups. They provide a suitable context for distributed people working on the same subject to concentrate the...

The use of new technologies does not mean that the applied education model is modern. New technologies can be used in a way that follows the traditional education model, with all its deficiencies. The collaborative educa...

Los robots se han convertido en colaboradores habituales de nuestra vida diaria. Los sistemas robóticos son cada vez más complejos y, como consecuencia, crece la necesidad de aplicar nuevas técnicas ingenieriles a su ...

Robots have become usual collaborators in our daily life. While robotic systems grow to be more and more complex, the need to engineering their software development process grows as well. Traditional approaches that are ...

Distance learning courses need intensive planning that, in turn, requires the integration of knowledge and expertise in different areas and levels such as curriculum, ICTs and course management. This paper presents an in...

This paper presents a group of elements to improve the teaching and learning in technological education, applied to Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). These elements are based on some contributions issued ...

In these days most robotic systems tend to be complex to maintain and reuse because existing frameworks are based mainly on code-driven approaches. This means the software development process is reduced to the implementa...

The following research proposes a first approximation to the Dynamic Hypermedial Device modeling based on the analysis of interactions. In addition, the DEVS (Discrete EVents dynamic Systems) formalism is employed, which...

Nowadays information circulates quickly in a human organization, what generates an internal difficulty in preserving inside the organization essential information to support decision-making. Decision Support Systems (DSS...

"The aim of this project is to study the use of energy surplus from local renewable sources at isolated places in Argentina, to produce electrolytical hydrogen as clean fuel for electricity generation. Furthermore, the h...
