Combining OWL ontologies usingE-Connections
2006
The standardization of the Web Ontology Language (OWL) leaves (at least) two crucial issues for Web-based ontologies unsatisfactorily resolved, namely how to represent and reason with multiple distinct, but linked ontologies, and how to enable effective knowledge reuse and sharing on the Semantic Web. In this paper, we present a solution for these fundamental problems based on E-Connections. We aim to use E-Connections to provide modelers with suitable means for developing Web ontologies in a modular way and to provide an alternative to the owl:imports construct. With such motivation, we present in this paper a syntactic and semantic extension of the Web Ontology language that covers E-Conn…
Unifying Access to Heterogeneous Document Databases through Contextual Metadata
2011
Document databases available on the Internet carry massive information resources. To a person needing a piece of information on a specific domain, finding the piece, however, is often quite problematic even though there were a representative collection of databases available on the domain. The languages used in the content, the names of document types, their structures, the ways documents are organized and their retrieval techniques often vary in the databases. The databases containing legal information on the Internet offer a typical example. For finding relevant documents and for being able to interpret the content of the documents correctly, the user may need information about the contex…
Comprehension effects of signalling relationships between documents in search engines
2010
A key task for students learning about a complex topic from multiple documents on the web is to establish the existing rhetorical relations between the documents. Traditional search engines such as Google(R) display the search results in a listed format, without signalling any relationship between the documents retrieved. New search engines such as Kartoo(R) go a step further, displaying the results as a constellation of documents, in which the existing relations between pages are made explicit. This presentation format is based on previous studies of single-text comprehension, which demonstrate that providing a graphical overview of the text contents and their relation boosts readers' comp…
A Web Centric Semantic Mediation Approach for Spatial Information Systems
2006
International audience; Semantic mediation is increasingly at the heart of the design of emerging webbased information systems, particularly spatial information systems thatrequire the integration or interoperation of a collection of heterogeneousdata sources. Ontologies are increasingly used to represent agreed semantic ofapplications by providing formal description models and related tools toexplicitly specify the conceptual entities of an application. Past research intraditional database integration has identified key issues in the resolution ofvarious structural and semantic conflicts. Recent research effort has extendedthis early research to address the interoperability of spatial info…
E@: Art Education 3.0
2012
Utilizando un modo de expresión disruptivo y poco académico se pretende interesar a los profesores-artistas por el uso de las tecnologías de la información y comunicación para la Enseñanza Artística. Se presenta un espacio web, con formato de red social. Creada en 2009 por el grupo de investigación UAM-PR:007 “Recursos digitales para la Educación Artística”, pretende facilitar el desarrollo de actitudes abiertas y críticas ante la sociedad actual desdoblada entre el mundo real y el virtual, facilitar el aprendizaje continuo y a la actualización permanente que requiere el ejercicio de nuestra profesión.
E@: using internet as an artistic living space
2013
Abordando la red social denominada “E@” (www.arteweb.ning.com) como obra artística, nos preguntamos ¿Qué vemos? ¿Qué nos parece? ¿Qué es?. Los miembros de esta red trabajan en ella como artistas (creadores de imágenes) y también como docentes (arquitectos del conocimiento). Utilizan Internet para crear y exponer sus trabajos artísticos y docentes. Sus usuarios son invitados a implicarse en su propia formación como ciudadanos críticos y comprometidos, para el desarrollo de sus propias competencias culturales y artísticas. Se explicará dicha Red entendida como CASA, sin ubicación geográfica determinada, usada como espacio artístico habitable. Como casa-cimiento, respondiendo a unas caracterís…
Multimedia Retrieval by Means of Merge of Results from Textual and Content Based Retrieval Subsystems
2010
The main goal of this paper it is to present our experiments in ImageCLEF 2009 Campaign (photo retrieval task). In 2008 we proved empirically that the Text-based Image Retrieval (TBIR) methods defeats the Content-based Image Retrieval CBIR "quality" of results, so this time we developed several experiments in which the CBIR helps the TBIR. The TBIR System [6] main improvement is the named-entity sub-module. In case of the CBIR system [3] the number of low-level features has been increased from the 68 component used at ImageCLEF 2008 up to 114 components, and only the Mahalanobis distance has been used. We propose an ad-hoc management of the topics delivered, and the generation of XML struct…

Virtual learning environment and academic outcomes: Empirical evidence for the teaching of Management Accounting
2014
ResumenEl objetivo fundamental de este trabajo consiste en contrastar empíricamente si el uso de un entorno virtual de aprendizaje (EVA) afecta positivamente a los resultados académicos de los estudiantes. El EVA desarrollado ha sido aplicado en la asignatura Contabilidad de Gestión, del Grado en Finanzas y Contabilidad de la Universitad de València. Esta experiencia de innovación docente, fundamentada en la teoría constructivista, combina diversos objetos de aprendizaje en el contexto de la plataforma Moodle. Su diseño implica un incremento de la motivación, el interés y la autogestión del aprendizaje de los estudiantes, al mismo tiempo que proporciona al profesorado instrumentos para eval…
Incorporación de Internet de las Cosas (IoT) en la docencia universitaria en dos etapas: hardware y software
2018
[EN] IoT is a concept referred to a network of common objects interconnected through the Internet. This is one of the main areas with growing interest and also necessary for the Telecommunication and Telematics Engineering students. The main constraints which face the students with IoT are the integration of the hardware as well as the need for management systems to handle the amount of data they generate by specific software. This work shows some experiences done by a group of students in the Telematics Engineering Degree and the Master of Telecommunications.
