The first one is combined with concepts derived from the second one. The emphasis of the paper is on the process of integration and its result: the integrated framework. The combined framework that emerges from the integration process provides a better description, not only of the project management processes, but also of the technical and support processes which are proper of the software development endeavor. The proposed framework is expected to provide a better guidance to software development teams, since it mixes managerial and technical processes into a unique framework.","PeriodicalId":184399,"journal":{"name":"2013 XXXIX Latin American Computing Conference (CLEI)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123743012","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The purpose of this problem is to determine the sequence of the groups and the sequence of the jobs within each group in order to minimize the total flow time. The FSDGS problem is classified as NP-hard, thus, efficient heuristics are needed to obtain near-optimal solutions in reasonable computational time. In this work, we propose a hybrid heuristic based on Variable Neighborhood Descent (VND) and Iterated Local Search (ILS) metaheuristic. Our heuristic operates with three neighborhood structures and new starting solutions are obtained by applying a perturbation procedure on the current best solution. The computational results show that our heuristic outperforms, in terms of solution quality, an algorithm proposed in the literature. The results are confirmed by a statistical analysis.","PeriodicalId":184399,"journal":{"name":"2013 XXXIX Latin American Computing Conference (CLEI)","volume":"81 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122999263","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These developments have expanded the functionality of some existing relational DBMS (PostgreSQL, Oracle, Firebird, SQL Server, MySQL and DB2) to handle queries with vague terms. The three approaches presented are based on three different methods of integration known as weak, medium and strong coupling strategies. These developments are based on evaluation mechanisms that give good behavior in terms of time spent for query processing. In addition, this paper also presents two user experiences of these fuzzy DBMS, which show a high acceptance by users. To do so, are some applications developed using our fuzzy DBMS. These experiences show that fuzzy DBMS are appropriate and necessary in real-world applications.","PeriodicalId":184399,"journal":{"name":"2013 XXXIX Latin American Computing Conference (CLEI)","volume":"50 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117145578","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work evaluates the efficiency of the protection method based on p-cycles or pre-configured protection cycles, with a multi-objective approach, optimizing simultaneously network resources as well as the amount of needed reconfigurations in the nodes when working capacity changes. With this purpose we have developed a new multi-objective genetic algorithm which calculates both objectives. We also show experimental results, analyzing the effects of the small-batch size of requirements in each network reconfiguration, and the stability of p-cycles, i.e. the variation of these parameters in each time period.","PeriodicalId":184399,"journal":{"name":"2013 XXXIX Latin American Computing Conference (CLEI)","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2013-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125489289","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
