Mobile computing applications are required to operate in environments in which the availability for resources and services may change significantly during system operation. As a result, mobile computing applications need...

This study investigates an approach of knowledge discovery and data mining in insufficient databases. An application of Computational Taxonomy analysis demonstrates that the approach is effective in such a data mining pr...

In this work we analyze existing complexity results in the area of non-monotonic reasoning in general and argumentation in particular. Even though the area of argumentation is based on solid theoretical foundations, its ...

Subjectivity, and in particular dynamic subjectivity, is a desirable feature in programming languages, so as to allow the implementation of different views in order to enhance the reusability and integration of the key a...

Protein Folding is an important open problem in the eld of Computational Biology Due to its com binatorial nature exact polynomial algorithms to solve it could not exist and so approximation algorithms and heurist...

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 ...

A d-dimensional cellular automaton with sequential input mode is a d-dimensional grid of interconnected interacting finite automata. The distinguished automaton at the origin, the communication cell, is connected to th...

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 ...

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 ...

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...

Both established and emergent business rely heavily on data, chiefly those that wish to become game changers. The current biggest source of data is the Web, where there is a large amount of sparse data. The Web, where th...

La localización de servicios (“Facility location” en inglés) pretende encontrar el emplazamiento de uno o más centros (servicios) de modo que se optimice una determinada función objetivo. Dicha función objetivo pu...

Argumentation systems have substantially evolved in the past few years, resulting in adequate tools to model some forms of common sense reasoning. This has sprung a new set of argument-based applications in diverse are...

A atividade de teste constitui uma fase de grande importância no processo de desenvolvimento de software, tendo como objetivo garantir um alto grau de confiabilidade nos produtos desenvolvidos. Com o advento do paradigm...

Currently, the telecommunications management systems are powerful, however, maintain centralized and proprietary platforms, limiting this way, the growth of these telecommunications networks. This factor generates the ne...

Patterns are powerful tools to document software problems and their solutions, as well as when and how to use them. They can help improve software reuse. The implementation of non functional requirements, such as atomici...
