Developing a computational model to understand the contributions of social learning modes to task coordination in teams
This paper reports on a computational model developed to study the effects of various modes of social learning on task coordination in teams through the mapping of distributed team competence, a significant aspect of efficient teamwork. The ...
A method to reduce ambiguities of qualitative reasoning for conceptual design applications
Qualitative reasoning can generate ambiguous behaviors due to the lack of quantitative information. Despite many different research results focusing on ambiguities reduction, fundamentally it is impossible to totally remove ambiguities with only ...
Efficient large-scale configuration via integer linear programming
Configuration of large-scale applications in an engineering context requires a modeling environment that allows the design engineer to draft the configuration problem in a natural way and efficient methods that can process the modeled setting and scale ...
Improving the link between computer-assisted design and configuration tools for the design of mechanical products
The competitive market forces companies to offer tailored products to meet specific customer needs. To avoid wasting time, design efforts generally address the configuration of existing solutions, without producing substantial design modifications. ...
Quenchml: A semantics-preserving markup language for knowledge representation in quenching
Knowledge representation KR is an important area in artificial intelligence AI and is often related to specific domains. The representation of knowledge in domain-specific contexts makes it desirable to capture semantics as domain experts would. This ...
