At any time humans need accurate information to solve different problems. For example, how to perform a task, what happens in the news, what the hundreds of tweets say, etc. On the other hand, electronic information has ...

This thesis, entitled €High Performance Computing for solving large sparse systems. Optical Diffraction Tomography as a case of study€ investigates the computational issues related to the resolution of linear systems o...

Digital technologies have revolutionized studying, analyzing, and interpreting human culture, history, and society. Digital humanities (DH) combine traditional disciplines such as literature, history, and philosophy with...

The flow shop scheduling problem (FSSP) has held the attention of many researchers. In a simplest usual situation, a set of jobs must follow the same route to be executed on a set of machines (resources) and the main obj...

The growing processing power of standard workstations, along with the relatively easy way in which they can be available for parallel processing, have both contributed to their increasing use in computation intensive app...

Three alternatives within the method of assignment by classes are presented for the calculation of individuals lifetime in genetic algorithms with varying population size. (GAVaPS). In the proposed strategy (assignment b...

Multiobjective optimization, also known as vector-valued criteria or multicriteria optimization, have long been used in many application areas where a problem involves multiple objectives, often conflicting, to be met or...

In this article we will introduce certain considerations that must be taken into account while implementing the change operations of the belief change theory. The abstract models of bellief change make no considerations ...

Most formalisms for representing common-sense knowledge allow incomplete and potentially inconsistent information. When strong negation is also allowed, contradictory conclusions can arise. A criterion for deciding betwe...
