El proceso contra Jato Tello (Vitoria 1485): ¿Error judicial o empleo de la justicia penal en la política antijudía?

[ES]El objeto de este artículo es saber hasta qué punto pudo emplearse la justicia penal como un instrumento más de la política de carácter antijudío desarrollada por las autoridades cristianas de la España medieval a finales del siglo XV, concretamente en los momentos previos a la expulsión. Para indagar sobre esta cuestión se tendrá presente el proceso penal por blasfemia al que fue sometido el judío de Vitoria (Álava) Jato Tello.

Dialog Systems based on Markov decision processes over two real tasks

In this work the state of the art of the automatic dialogue strategy management using Markov decision processes (MDP) with reinforcement learning (RL) is described. Partially observable Markov decision processes (POMDP) are also described. To test the validity of these methods, two spoken dialogue systems have been developed. The first one is a spoken dialogue system for weather forecast providing, and the second one is a more complex system for train information. With the first system, comparisons between a rule-based system and an automatically trained system have been done, using a real corpus to train the automatic strategy. In the second system, the scalability of these methods when used in larger systems has been tested.

Evaluating governance and participatory processes in Natura 2000: lessons learned and guidance for future prospects

In recent years, participatory approaches have been incorporated in decision-making processes as a way to strengthen the bonds between diverse areas of knowledge and social actors in natural resources management and environmental governance. Despite the favourable context, this paradigm shift is still in an early stage within the development of the Natura 2000 in the European Union, the largest network of protected areas in the world. To enhance the full scope of participatory approaches in this context, this article: (i) briefly reviews the role of participatory approaches in environmental governance, (ii) develops a common framework to evaluate such participatory processes in protected area management, (iii) applies this framework to a real case study, and (iv) based on the lessons learned, provides guidance to improve the future governance of Natura 2000 sites.

Perfiles lingüísticos en la nueva oficina judicial: planificación lingüística en la administración de la Administración de Justicia

[ES]La adaptación de la Administración de Justicia al estatus de doble oficialidad lingüística exige la adopción de importantes medidas estructurales y organizativas que, hasta la fecha, no han resultado suficientemente efectivas. Este trabajo profundiza en los retos que en materia de lenguas se plantean a la Administración de Justicia, sobre la base del hilo conductor del sistema de planificación lingüística diseñado por la CAPV y su análisis desde la perspectiva de la jurisprudencia más reciente.

TRANSFER OF ANALYTICAL METHODS FOR THE CHARACTERISATION OF NATURAL PRODUCTS TO R&D PROCESSES OF IDOKI

IDOKI SCF Technologies S.L. is a technology-based company, set up on September 2006 in Derio (Biscay) with the main scope of developing extraction and purification processes based on the use of supercritical fluid extraction technology (SFE) in food processing, extraction of natural products and the production of personal care products. IDOKI¿s researchers have been working on many different R&D projects so far, most of them using this technology. However, the optimization of a SFE method for the different matrices cannot be performed unless we have an analytical method for the characterisation of the extracts obtained in each experiment. The analytical methods are also essential for the quality control of the raw materials that are going to be used and also for the final product. This PhD thesis was born to tackle this problem and therefore, it is based on the development of different analytical methods for the characterisation of the extracts and products. The projects that we could include in this thesis were the following: the extraction propolis, the recovery of agroindustrial residues (soy and wine) and the dealcoholisation of wine.On the one hand, for the extraction of propolis, several UV-Vis spectroscopic methods were used in order to measure the antioxidant capacity and the total polyphenol and flavonoid content of the extracts. A SFC method was also developed in order to measure more specific phenolic compounds. On the other hand, for the recovery of agroindustrial residues UV-Vis spectroscopy was used to determine the total polyphenol content and two SFC methods were developed to analyse different phenolic compounds. Extraction methods such as MAE, FUSE and rotary agitation were also evaluated for the characterisation of the raw materials.Finally, for the dealcoholisation of wine, the development of a SBSE-TD-GC-MS and DHS-TD-GC-MS methods for the analysis of aromas and a NIR spectroscopic method for the determination of ethanol content with the help of chemometrics was necessary. Most of these methods are typically used in IDOKI¿s lab as routine analyses apart from others not included in this PhD thesis.

Properties of convergence of a class of iterative processes generated by sequences of self-mappings with applications to switched dynamic systems

This article investigates the convergence properties of iterative processes involving sequences of self-mappings of metric or Banach spaces. Such sequences are built from a set of primary self-mappings which are either expansive or non-expansive self-mappings and some of the non-expansive ones can be contractive including the case of strict contractions. The sequences are built subject to switching laws which select each active self-mapping on a certain activation interval in such a way that essential properties of boundedness and convergence of distances and iterated sequences are guaranteed. Applications to the important problem of stability of dynamic switched systems are also given.

Análisis de las principales novedades del Reglamento (UE) 1215/2012 en la conquista de la libre circulación de las resoluciones en el espacio judicial europeo

El objetivo principal de este trabajo fin de grado es resaltar las novedades que ha incorporado el Reglamento 1215/2012 en el objetivo de un avance en la consecución de un verdadero espacio judicial europeo con el objeto de potenciar la libre circulación de las resoluciones judiciales en materia civil y mercantil en el ámbito de la Unión Europea. Los dos grandes objetivos de la reforma, la eliminación del exequátur y la extensión de las reglas unificadas de competencia con el propósito de suprimir la remisión a las reglas nacionales cuando el demandado no está domiciliado en un estado miembro, son objeto de estudio y crítica en este trabajo.

La técnica del interrogatorio judicial

[ES]Al escuchar la palabra interrogatorio, lo que normalmente sucede es que las personas asocien dicho término con el interrogatorio realizado por parte de la policía, debido a la gran cantidad de películas basadas en este tipo de interrogatorio. Lo que se ha pretendido a través de este trabajo es el estudio y análisis de las características y funciones que generalmente invaden el interrogatorio judicial, así como el examen de las distintas técnicas posibles a llevar a cabo para la consecución de su fin: la verdad sobre los hechos probados. Además, se ha querido subrayar la importancia e influencia que tiene la ciencia de la psicología en este campo, estableciendo y exponiendo diferentes claves psicológicas para realizar de una mejor manera el trabajo del abogado en el acto del interrogatorio judicial, ya que, aun siendo imprescindible el conocimiento de la ciencia del Derecho, ha de tenerse muy en cuenta y de hecho, no olvidarse de la ciencia de la Psicología.

Quantum Simulation of Dissipative Processes without Reservoir Engineering

We present a quantum algorithm to simulate general finite dimensional Lindblad master equations without the requirement of engineering the system-environment interactions. The proposed method is able to simulate both Markovian and non-Markovian quantum dynamics. It consists in the quantum computation of the dissipative corrections to the unitary evolution of the system of interest, via the reconstruction of the response functions associated with the Lindblad operators. Our approach is equally applicable to dynamics generated by effectively non-Hermitian Hamiltonians. We confirm the quality of our method providing specific error bounds that quantify its accuracy.
