“…We combine the models of information geometry and the methods of computational geometry. At present, computational geometry algorithms are an active, widely used, and integrated research field [11,37,40,47,46]. Many difficult problems can be solved by computational geometric methods if provided with well-designed and efficient algorithms [1,3,20,21,22,23,24,25,26,27,28,29].…”

The superactivation of zero-capacity quantum channels makes it possible to use two zero-capacity quantum channels with a positive joint capacity for their output. Currently, we have no theoretical background to describe all possible combinations of superactive zero-capacity channels; hence, there may be many other possible combinations. In practice, to discover such superactive zero-capacity channel-pairs, we must analyze an extremely large set of possible quantum states, channel models, and channel probabilities. There is still no extremely efficient algorithmic tool for this purpose. This paper shows an efficient algorithmical method of finding such combinations. Our method can be a very valuable tool for improving the results of fault-tolerant quantum computation and possible communication techniques over very noisy quantum channels.

“…The main objective in the elicitation stage is to establish effective mechanisms to gather the bibliographic sources needed in the formalization phase, where the information is established using formalisms or a knowledge model; the information is converted into knowledge at this stage . In classification, the formalized knowledge must be properly indexed and organized in order to distribute and share the information effectively or retrieve for reuse .…”

SUMMARY Software process improvement in software development organizations is a complex task that can be solved using knowledge management strategies. The definition and use of process patterns is a proven approach to apply knowledge management strategies in software engineering organizations. One of the main problems for the effective application of process patterns is the difficulty of formalizing the knowledge about the development process using these approaches. In this paper, a framework to manage software project patterns is presented. This framework is composed of a model called reusable project pattern (RPP) and a tool called sdpReuser. It is able to formalize the knowledge on software development projects from software development methodologies, reference frameworks, best practices and also tacit knowledge, useful to software engineers. The authors carried out a case study at the University Carlos III of Madrid, where junior software engineers used RPP. This study shows that the quality of pattern formalization correlates with experience in specific software engineering methods, the quality of the references in software engineering practices and the collaboration among software engineers to develop an RPP. It also analyzed the usefulness of RPP information elements to help software engineers to identify the most appropriate RPP and how to adapt it to project restrictions.

“…The product patterns facilitates the understanding of the organization assets and the knowledge representation, due to these correspond to a generalization or reusable abstraction that may be used as a starting point for future solutions (Medina-Dominguez, Sanchez-Segura, Mora-Soto, & Amescua, 2009;Sánchez-Segura, Medina-Dominguez, Amescua, & Mora-Soto, 2010).…”

Knowledge elicitation process allows acquiring and transferring the knowledge. This process presents difficulties to select the appropriate elicitation technique. This paper presents a classification of the elicitation techniques used in software engineering and the relationship between the elicitation techniques and some elements of knowledge management as assets knowledge, epistemological dimension of knowledge and the knowledge creation phases. This classification provides a guideline to select a technique or a set of techniques for knowledge elicitation based on phases of Nonaka’s model.
