The work of quantifying the problems of abandoned mines is the first step towards the rehabilitation of these mines. As the result, in all countries that have many abandoned mines, researchers and different organizations have been making efforts to develop decision-making tools, methods, and techniques for rehabilitation of abandoned mines. This paper describes the work conducted to incorporate the method for ranking the problems of abandoned mine entries into a rule-based expert system. This is done using the web-based expert system platform provided by expert system (ES)-Builder Shell. The ES is tested by applying it to the case study of the problems of abandoned mine entries in the areas of Giyani and Musina, Limpopo Province of South Africa. This paper gives details of the procedure followed in creating the production rules of the ES for ranking problems of abandoned mine entries (ES-RAME), its attributes, and the results of its application to the selected case study. The use of the ES-RAME is found to be important for setting the objectives and priorities of the rehabilitation of abandoned mine entries. In addition, the incorporation of the ranking method into the expert system ensured that the procedure of the tanking method is clearly communicated and preserved as the rules of the ES. The expert system also has the advantages of being consistent in its guidance, and it gives the user an opportunity to go through the ranking process of the system using any possible fictitious information; this gives the user a feel for the ranking process and the data required when using the ES-RAME.

Sistem pakar secara umum adalah sistem yang mengadopsi kemampuan seorang pakar atau ahli untuk dimasukkan ke dalam komputer sehingga mampu menyelesaikan masalah seperti yang dilakukan oleh pakar. Sistem pakar saat ini banyak digunakan pada beberapa bidang salah satunya bidang kesehatan. Jerawat merupakan penyakit radang yang dapat terjadi pada bagian wajah, leher, dada dan punggung. Pengetahuan mengenai jenis jerawat pada masyarakat masih kurang sehingga dalam pengobatannya dilakukan dengan penangan yang tidak sesuai. Diperlukan pengetahuan pakar yang dapat membantu dalam melakukan diagnosis jenis penyakit jerawat. Web merupakan sebuah sistem yang disajikan dalam bentuk teks, gambar dan suara yang tersimpan dalam sebuah server web. Sistem pakar berbasis web dapat menjadi sebuah alternatif diagnosis awal penyakit jerawat. Pada penelitian ini metode pengembangan sistem pakar berbasis web menggunakan exrime programming. Berdasarkan hasil dari pengujian kuesioner terhadap sistem pakar diagnosis web jerawat berbasis web yang dilakukan sebanyak 61% setuju bahwa sistem pakar ini dapat membantu dalam melakukan diagnosis jerawat.The Application of a Web-Based Expert Acne Diagnosis System (Case Study: Navagreen Citra Raya)The expert system is a system that adopts the ability of an expert or expert to be entered into a computer so that it is able to solve problems as is done by experts. The expert system is currently widely used in several fields one of which is the health sector. Acne is an inflammatory disease that can occur on the face, neck, chest, and back. Knowledge about the types of acne in the community is still lacking so that the treatment is done with inappropriate handling. Expert knowledge is needed that can help in diagnosing the type of acne. The web is a system that is presented in the form of text, images, and sounds stored in a web server. A web-based expert system can be an alternative for early diagnosis of acne. In this research, the method of developing a web-based acne expert system uses extreme programming. Based on the results of the questionnaire testing of the expert system of web-based acne diagnosis conducted as many as 61% agree that this expert system can help in making a diagnosis of acne.

<p><strong>Abstract.</strong> In this article, we present a method for visualizing multi-dimensional spatio-temporal data in an interactive web-based geovisualization. Our case study focuses on publicly available weather data in Germany. After processing the data with Python and desktop GIS, we integrated the data as web services in a browser-based application. This application displays several weather parameters with different types of visualisations, such as static maps, animated maps and charts. The usability of the web-based geovisualization was evaluated with a free-examination and a goal-directed task, using eye-tracking analysis. The evaluation focused on the question how people use static maps, animated maps and charts, dependent on different tasks. The results suggest that visualization elements such as animated maps, static maps and charts are particularly useful for certain types of tasks, and that more answering time correlates with less accurate answers.</p>

Using XML as the source format for authoring technical publications creates opportunities to develop tools that provide analysis, author guidance, and visualization. This case study describes two web applications that take advantage of the XML source format of documents. The applications provide a browser-based tool for technical writers and editors in a 100-person documentation department of a software company. Compared to desktop tools, the web applications are more convenient for users and less affected by hard-to-predict inconsistencies among users' computers. One application analyzes file dependencies and produces custom reports that facilitate reorganizing files. The other helps authors visualize their network of topics in their documentation sets. Both applications rely on the XQuery language and its RESTXQ web API. The visualization application also uses JavaScript, including the powerful jQuery and D3 libraries. After discussing what the applications do and why, this paper describes some architectural highlights, including how the different technologies fit together and exchange data.

Intelligent Tutoring Systems (ITS) include interactive applications with some intelligence that supports the learning process. Some of ITS have had a very large impact on educational outcomes in field tests, and they have provided an important ground for artificial intelligence research. This chapter elaborates on recent advances in ITS and includes a case study presenting an ITS called EduTutor. This system was created for the Web-Based Aulanet Learning Management System (LMS). It focuses on subjects for the first cycle of studies of the Portuguese primary education system, between the first and the fourth year. It facilitates the perception of the learning process of each student, individually, in a virtual environment, as a study guide. Moreover, EduTutor has been designed and its architecture prepared for being easily integrated into higher levels of studies, different subjects, and several languages. Currently, it is used in the Aulanet LMS platform.

An assessment consists of questions addressing the required learning outcomes of a course. If a pool of questions of various types is made available then assessment design reduces to selection of questions, one by one, from the pool. Since the number of possible questions for a course may be quite large, and several preferences have to be matched, manual selection of a suitable question is not possible. This paper presents an enhanced implementation of a previously presented idea of a methodology for assessment design with an application to a course of Hydraulics with an initial pool of 1,000 questions. Each question is tagged with a set of attributes. The rules are generated by the expert system itself. The idea of a score of relevance has been introduced. The enhanced implementation displays a set of questions with their relevance scores rather than a single question to let the instructor choose from them. An instance of MS SQL Server at Azure database is used for the web-based cloud implementation.
