Several authors have suggested grouping the Web pages by topics using clustering techniques. The application of these techniques involves different alternatives in different areas. Carrying out these research works could be easier and their cost lower if an experimentation hybrid system could be available that implemented the different alternatives or new ones could be added with a low cost. This work proposes an architecture of a Web information retrieval experimentation hybrid system that incorporates clustering techniques. This hybrid system is composed of different replaceable components, so that we could test different alternatives with a low cost. Later, using the proposed and the implemented system an empirical study is exposed in order to evaluate what type of clustering techniques is the most appropriate.

The personal medical can personalize each medication with the instructions for each patient by using a contactless card reader or a mobile with NFC technology. The use of RFID and NFC technology allows the identification of the patient and the application of preventative medical protocols to the patient. The proposed multi-agent system has reasoning capabilities in order to analyze the situation and achieve a high level of interaction with the patients and the personal medical. A distributed prototype system has been developed to test this multi-agent system. This system is aimed to improve health care and assistance to dependent persons in geriatric residences. Preliminary results are presented in this paper.

In this context they are necessary tools and formats like XML, to integrate these data and solve the heterogeneity problem. In this paper we proposed a new software tool called XDS. XDS (eXtensible Data Sources) is a new system to integrate data from relational databases, native XML databases and XML documents. On the other hand, the environment of libraries has also their bibliographical catalogues at different sources and formats. Therefore, we show the use and validity of the XDS system in this environment obtaining the results in a bibliographical format like MODS (Metadata Object Description Schema). Hereby the resources of different bibliographical catalogues can be consulted obtaining the results in a common format as MODS.

Hereby the resources of different bibliographical catalogues can be consulted obtaining the results in the same common format as MODS. To achieve our aim we use the XDS system, a software tool that solves the integration of heterogeneous data using XML as integration format. XDS allows integrating data from different relational and XML sources obtaining the results in the XML format specified by user. In this case the information sources store library catalogues and the output format is MODS.
