La introducción del inglés en la docencia y su influencia en los contenidos de las asignaturas de Derecho Financiero y Tributario
A pesar de que numerosos juristas (jueces, notarios, registradores de la propiedad...) puedan desarrollar/nsu carrera profesional sin necesitar conocer lenguas extranjeras, el dominio del inglés es una competencia/nimprescindible ...
Example-driven web API specification discovery
REpresentational State Transfer (REST) has become the dominant approach to design Web APIs nowadays, resulting in thousands of public REST Web APIs offering access to a variety of data sources (e.g., open-data initiatives) ...
Solving the Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem with Environmental Criteria Based on Real Estimations in Road Transportation: A Case Study
One of the most important objectives in company logistics is the optimization of goods distribution considering the whole value chain. There are many algorithms to optimise the capacitated vehicle routing problems (CVRP) ...
Who else are they? Conceptualizing intersectionality for childhood and youth research
Intersectionality has been seen as a useful and relevant concept for the study of childhood and youth geographies, as it allows research that takes into account who else children and young people are. However, there is a ...
Voice quality modelling for expressive speech synthesis
This paper presents the perceptual experiments that were carried out in order to validate the methodology of transforming expressive speech styles using voice quality (VoQ) parameters modelling, along with the well-known ...
A Virtual Laboratory Structure for Developing Programming Labs
Virtual Laboratories are an indispensable space for developing practical activities in a Virtual Environment. In the field of Computer and Software Engineering different types of practical activities have to be performed ...
Product Perfect Codes and Steganography
A new coding technique to be used in steganography is evaluated. The performance of this new technique is computed and comparisons with the well-known theoretical upper bound, Hamming upper bound and basic LSB are established.
Learnheuristics: hybridizing metaheuristics with machine learning for optimization with dynamic inputs
This paper reviews the existing literature on the combination of metaheuristics with machine learning methods and then introduces the concept of learnheuristics, a novel type of hybrid algorithms. Learnheuristics can be ...
Difficulties and challenges of anomaly detection in smart cities: a laboratory analysis
Smart cities work with large volumes of data from sensor networks and other sources. To prevent data from being compromised by attacks or errors, smart city IT administrators need to apply attack detection techniques to ...
A multi-agent based cooperative approach to scheduling and routing
In this paper, we propose a general agent-based distributed framework where each agent is implementing a different metaheuristic/local search combination. Moreover, an agent continuously adapts itself during the search ...
Multilevel processes and cultural adaptation: examples from past and present small-scale societies
The last two decades have seen a proliferation of research frameworks that emphasise the importance of understanding adaptive processes that happen at different levels. We contribute to this growing body of literature by ...
ZERO: Probabilistic Routing for Deploy and Forget Wireless Sensor Networks
As Wireless Sensor Networks are being adopted by industry and agriculture for large-scale and unattended deployments, the need for reliable and energy-conservative protocols become critical. Physical and Link layer efforts ...
SeVEP: Secure and Verifiable Electronic Polling System
Electronic polling systems promise benefits to voters such as accessibility and convenience that enable them to cast their votes at any time, from any Internet-connected computing device anywhere in the world. However, ...
Gamification: a systematic review of design frameworks
Learner's motivation difficulties are recognized as a problem in diverse educational scenarios, reaching up to university degrees. Among other techniques that are often applied by instructors to counteract this issue, those ...
Review: Liquid power: contested hydro-modernities in twentieth-century Spain, by Erik Swyngedouw
Liquid power traces the political-ecological dynamics and theemergence of networks and imaginaries that resulted in thetumultuous transformation of the Spanish hydro-social landscape throughout the 20th and early 21st ...
Water infrastructure and the making of financial subjects in the South East of England
Over the last four decades the locus of economic power has shifted from industry to finance. As part of this trend, the 'financialisation' of the water sector has added a new layer of complexity to the hydrosocial cycle, ...
Experimental energy consumption of frame slotted ALOHA and distributed queuing for data collection scenarios
Data collection is a key scenario for the Internet of Things because it enables gathering sensor data from distributed nodes that use low-power and long-range wireless technologies to communicate in a single-hop approach. ...
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 ...
Potential and pitfalls of multi-armed bandits for decentralized spatial reuse in WLANs
Spatial Reuse (SR) has recently gained attention to maximize the performance of IEEE 802.11 Wireless Local Area Networks (WLANs). Decentralized mechanisms are expected to be key in the development of SR solutions for ...
