Currently, the area of Information and Computer Technologies count with a consolidated research line included within the "Knowledge-based Intelligent Systems." Within this field, the area develops an important research work applying the obtained results to issues both in the social field, and in the industrial and services environment, in order to obtain solutions technological, economic and socially viable.

Application Areas of the Research Lines

Document Management: detection and management of inconsistencies

Detection and management of incoherencies on collections of technical and regulation documentation from various sectors (electric, civil engineering, safety, defense, etc.)

Human Factors: ePrevention, safety, risk analysis

Accident prevention: eFormation. Crisis situations simulation: eTraining.

Social skills and Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) applied to TICs.

Creation of tutors and intelligent systems for learning and training with appropriate contents and methodologies in order to improve social and cognitive skills of deprived groups and the elderly.

Intelligent preservation and maintenance of infrastructures

Application of Computer Intelligence techniques to the domain of transport infrastructures preservation, both roads and railways: knowledge extraction and intelligent modeling.

Domotics and digital home

We work on the design and development of sensor networks, middleware platforms and e-services, taking into account the interoperability, flexibility, scalability and standardization, thus creating the needed digital environment to develop the concept of “Environmental Intelligence.”

Projects

Docnor

Development of a documentation intelligentsystem, able to detect inconsistencies (incoherence between related documents) present on the documentation corpus of the company, making easier the creationof new technical and regulation documents free of these inconsistencies andfacilitating the searching.

Desica

Determination of the needs and limitations of people with Alzheimer and other dementias for the development of cognitive stimulation activities using interactive digital television (serious games.)

112

Technological advice for the 112 emergency service in Castilla y León. Application of the results obtained by the research line to issues of the 112 service (prediction of the number of received calls, number of operators needed for the service, etc.), bringing solutions with high added value.
