Development of spatial density maps based on geoprocessing web services: application to tuberculosis incidence in Barcelona, Spain
Background, health professionals and authorities strive to cope with heterogeneous data, services, and statistical models to support decision making on public health. Sophisticated analysis and distributed processing ...
A model-based approach to gamify the learning of modeling
Conceptual modeling is an essential activity in the development of any information system. But at the same time, it is a difficult one which may discourage some professionals that may be tempted to skip it altogether in ...
Cybercrime and cybercriminals: A comprehensive study
The increasing expansion and diversification in the strategies and practices of cybercrime has become a difficult obstacle in order both to understand the extent of embedded risks and to define efficient policies of ...
Software modernization revisited: Challenges and prospects
Organizations undertake more and more software modernization projects every day, mostly owing to rapid changes in the technological landscape pushing them to evolve their systems before those systems become obsolete. Such ...
A feature-based survey of model view approaches
When dealing with complex systems, information is very often fragmented across many different models expressed within a variety of (modeling) languages. To provide the relevant information in an appropriate way to different ...
Implementació de l'avaluació de competències transversals i específiques
En el marc de l'EEES el procés d'aprenentatge dels estudiant s'avalua per mitjà de l'assoliment de competències. La transició d'un model docent basat en el professor vers un model centrat en l'estudiant té una certa ...
An Application Framework to Systematically Develop Complex Learning Resources Based on Collaborative Knowledge Engineering
This contribution proposes software infrastructure to support new types of learning methodologies and resources based on collaborative knowledge engineering by means of an innovative application framework called the ...
Energy-and Spectrum-Efficient User Association in Millimeter-Wave Backhaul Small-Cell Networks
Macrocells are expected to be densely overlaid by small cells (SCs) to meet increasing capacity demands. Due to their dense deployment, some SCs will not be connected directly to the core network, and thus, they may forward ...
A simheuristic algorithm for solving an integrated resource allocation and scheduling problem
Modern companies have to face challenging configuration issues in their manufacturing chains. One of these challenges is related to the integrated allocation and scheduling of resources such as machines, workers, energy, ...
Explaining teaching uses of Wikipedia through faculty personal and contextual features
The aim of this study is to explore which personal and contextual factors affect the use of Wikipedia as a teaching resource in higher education institutions. This research question is approached by investigating faculty ...
A review of simheuristics: extending metaheuristics to deal with stochastic combinatorial optimization problems
Many combinatorial optimization problems (COPs) encountered in real-world logistics, transportation, production, healthcare, financial, telecommunication, and computing applications are NP-hard in nature. These real-life ...
A simheuristic approach for freight transportation in smart cities
In modern society, sustainable transportation practices in smart cities are becoming increasingly important for both companies and citizens. These practices constitute a global trend, which affects multiple sectors resulting ...
Simulation education in the Internet age: some experiences on the use of pure online and blended learning models
In this paper we analyze several cases related to three different Spanish universities that make use of the World Wide Web to teach simulation courses online. These universities are the Open University of Catalonia, the ...
Promoting green Internet computing throughout simulation-optimization scheduling algorithms
This work introduces an application of simulation-optimization techniques to the emerging field of green internet computing. The paper discusses the relevance of considering environmental factors in modern computing and ...
Robust Detection of Incumbents in Cognitive Radio Networks Using Groups
Cognitive radio is a wireless technology aimed at improving the efficiency use of the radio-electric spectrum, thus facilitating a reduction in the load on the free frequency bands. Cognitive radio networks can scan the ...
On dating Hero of Alexandria
The dating of Hero of Alexandria has been linked with the lunar eclipse of March 13, ad 62, since Otto Neugebauer discovered that this eclipse is the only one that can fit the one described in Hero's Dioptra 35. Although ...
