The active use and manipulation of visual representations makes many complex and intensive cognitive tasks feasible. A visual representation is able to convey relationships among many elements in parallel and it provides...

Defeasible Logic Programming (DeLP) is a suitable tool for knowledge representation and reasoning. Its operational semantics is based on a dialectical analysis where arguments for and against a literal interact in order ...

Modeling is one of the most crucial activities during all the phases in any software development life cycle. Typically, system development is a very complex task, and working with models helps to handle this complexity i...

Constraints add to the semantics to UML models in the form of statements which are expected to hold for the model to be considered correct, i.e., to satisfy system requirements. Constraints are considered in the UML met...

Statecharts and Duration Calculus are two formalisms used in the development of reactive systems. Statecharts provide a powerful visual formalism to specify systems. Duration Calculus is a formal logic to specify and rea...

A successful visualization allows the user to gain insight into the data in an effective way. Even with today’s visualization systems that give the user a considerable control over the visualization process, it can be ...

This thesis defines Defeasible Logic Programming and provides a concrete specification of this new language through its operational semantics. Defeasible Logic Programming, or DeLP for short, has been defined based on th...

Fuzzy rule-based systems have proved to be a convenient tool for modeling complex systems. This is due to their capacity to capture their typical imprecision, which makes classical methods inefficient. At present, Fuzzy...

Defeasible argumentation is one of the approaches that attempt to address the challenges arising when we reason defeasibly, with several formalisms in the literature reaching a mature state. Nowadays, several of them sta...

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 ...

The long-standing view that idioms are formally and thus also semantically fixed has been challenged and many studies have shown that idioms are indeed flexible both structurally and semantically to varying degrees. We o...

Este texto describe el contexto teórico y clínico de la terapia lingüística de evaluación, desarrollada por la autora a partir de la teoría de la Semántica General de A. Korzybski. Sus elementos principales se rel...

English linguistics is the scientific study of the English language, encompassing its structure, use, and evolution. The most traditional branches of study are phonetics and phonology, morphology, syntax, and semantics. ...

This book contributes to the field of pragmatic variation in World Englishes by analysing the pragmatic markers 'kind of' and 'sort of'. After a general review of their history and current use, the book offers a contrast...

"Online Analytical Processing (OLAP) comprises tools and algorithms that allow querying multidimensional databases. It is based on the multidimensional model, where data can be seen as a cube, where each cell contains on...

The Semantic Web is a project intended to create a universal medium for information exchange by giving semantics to the content of documents on the Web through the use of ontology definitions. Problems for modelling com...
