In the past decade, deep neural networks have revolutionized computer vision. High performing deep neural architectures trained for visual recognition tasks have pushed the field towards methods relying on learned image ...
Data prefetching has long been used as a technique to improve access times to persistent data. It is based on retrieving data records from persistent storage to main memory before the records are needed. Data prefetching ...
Our research aims at contributing to the evolution of modern wireless communications and to the development of software-defined radio (SDR) and cognitive radio, in particular. It promotes a general resource management ...
(English) Organisations use communication in the process of managing their commercial, institutional or social responsibility activities to form and maintain relationships with different audiences. Beyond being a way to ...
The increasing need for range-resolved aerosol and water-vapour atmospheric observation networks worldwide has given rise to multi-spectral LIDARs (Light Detection and Ranging, a synonym of laser radar) as advanced remote ...
The origin of building blocks of life and how life thrived on Earth remains a topic of high interest for researchers of the Origin of Life. In this thesis, we deal with concepts, perspectives and implications of the system ...
El sector energético se está dirigiendo hacia un nuevo paradigma, favoreciendo la aparición de procesos de conversión más eficientes, el uso de las fuentes de energía renovables y la micro-generación. La bioenergía es una ...
This Thesis addresses the systematic construction of Decision Making Models (DMMs) from the conceptualization stage to its application in specific situations, with special emphasis on !he treatment of scenarios where there ...
The doctoral thesis examines a case study (not yet investigated), which belongs to the small group of large tourism operations planned during the 60s in the Spanish Mediterranean area. The researcher studies the first ...
The principal focus of this Thesis is the development and design of promising hybrid nanocomposites based on conducting polymers with the main objective of achieving applications in the field of biotechnology and biomedicine. ...
Depletion of natural resources and non-renewable energy sources has recently accelerated due to the development of globalized economy and industrialization. During the last years, the scientific community has devoted much ...
Cone penetration test (CPT) is a fast and reliable site investigation tool for exploring soils and soft ground. While the interpretation of the test results in clay has advanced considerably from a theoretical and numerical ...
La tesis propone un nuevo conformador de haz para la recepción de señales con modulación de saltos frecuenciales "frequency hopping" (FH) basado en el conocimiento de la secuencia de frecuencias utilizada en la modulación ...
[English] In n-dimensional adaptive applications, conformal simplicial meshes must be lo cally modified. One systematic local modification is to bisect the prescribed simplices while surrounding simplices are bisected ...
In the last decades, the capability of information systems to generate and record overwhelming amounts of event data has experimented an exponential growth in several domains, and in particular in industrial scenarios. ...
This thesis is composed of two parts:<br/><br/>We have used different computer simulation techniques to investigate the impact of different chemical modifications on the conformational preferences of proline and to examine ...
This thesis develops mathematical programming models which integrate network design (ND) and line frequency setting (LFS) phases. These appear in transport planning studies that extend an existing urban public transportation ...
Internet access is still unavailable to one-third of the world population due to the lack of infrastructure, high cost, and the digital divide. Many access-limited communities opt for shared Internet access where they build ...
To analyse the current situation of the Latin American subcontinent is to speak of a process of repression, as explained by Alberto Acosta when referring to the evil of abundance: countries rich in natural resources, whose ...
The gradual integration of remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS) in civil airspace, sharing airways with commercial flights, is expected to be completed once the legal issues and those regarding the unmanned traffic ...
