Energy consumption has become one of the greatest challenges in the eld of High Performance Computing (HPC). Besides its impact on the environment, energy is a limiting factor for the HPC. Keeping the power consumption...

Monitoring and controlling of large power systems is becoming more challenging as a consequence of the growth of their size, increasing demand for electricity, penetration of variable renewable energy sources, uncertaint...

Educational Innovation: Tools and Practices for Effective Learning stands as a testament to the transformative power of innovative educational strategies. Directed and coordinated by a distinguished team of experts, this...

In an era of exponential technological change and deepening urban inequality, cities face an existential question: adapt or decline. Innovation Districts by Miquel Barceló offers a bold blueprint for urban transformatio...

All over the world, in all democratic States, independently of having a legal system based on the common law or on the civil law principles, the courts – special constitutional courts, supreme courts or ordinary courts...

Argues that Mediterranean society moved in cycles determined both by the environment (geological movement, etc.) and by human societies (the growth and decline of particular political/social powers, systems of government...

The industrial plants s uch as the power plant, in particular the nuclear ones, have presented important changes in the conditions during the last 20 years. This situation led to the evaluation of the emergent t echnolog...

In this paper we present the Shapley Value and Banzhaf-Coleman Index of Power with incompatibilities. There are restrictions that some groups present in formation a coalition. It is the case in many applications when the...

Evolutionary Algorithms (EAs) became a powerful tool for environments where an optimization is needed or where an adaptive behaviour of a system is necessary. Computer Systems have been evolving rapidly during the last ...

In an organization of any size, there is an organization function responsible for the technology, activities and personnel to support its technology-enabled work systems and the information and communication needs of the...

Current reasoning systems attempt to model an agent's knowledge and interaction with its environment in a symbolic manner. This environment, its world is generally dynamic and changing due to natural evolution or the act...

Artificial Intelligence has long dealt with the issue of finding a suitable formalization for reasoning with incomplete and potentially inconsistent information. Defeasible argumentation [SL92,CML00,PraVre99] has proven ...

A multiagent system (MAS) is made up of multiple interacting autonomous agents. It can be viewed as a society in which each agent performs its activity, cooperating to achieve common goals, or competing for them. Thus, e...

The growing number of control models based on combinations of neural networks, fuzzy systems and evolutionary algorithms shows that they represent a flexible and powerful approach. However, most of these models assume th...

In this paper we present a high performance real-time microcontroller (uRT51) based on an 8051 core. The uRT51 is an 8-bits processor that includes a Real-Time co-processing unit. We have implemented the speed control of...

Petri Nets are tools for the analysis and design of concurrent systems. There is a formal theory, which supports Petri Nets. We propose Petri Nets with Clocks which has a high expressive power in the concurrent and async...

Keystroke Dynamics is a powerful technique which allows to detect and identify intruders in computer systems. In order to test keystroke data pattern matching and clustering algorithms, user data collection is a mandator...

Despite the advances in wireless, energy-constrained ad hoc networks, there are still many challenges given the limited capabilities of the current hardware. Therefore, our aim is to develop a lightweight, yet powerful o...

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...

En los últimos años las organizaciones aumentaron el uso de las tecnologías de la información, y también aumentaron los riesgos asociados a ellas. La complejidad de las infraestructuras que incluyen un gran número ...

Companies are more than ever participating in so-called value networks while being confronted with an increasing need for collaboration with their business partners. In order to better perform in such value networks info...
