Gestió dels arxius duplicats distribuïts

El treball diari en diferents entorns, tant pel que fa a sistemes operatius, com maquinariscom llocs físics diferents fa que la informació hagi d'estar a tot arreu. Aquesta informacióha d'estar actualitzada. A més a més, hi ha la possibilitat de l'ús de les diferentspossibilitats d'emmagatzematge (local, disc extern, núvol...).Tot i que les eines de treball al núvol (per exemple, Google Docs, EyeOS...) són moltcompletes, el fet d'utilitzar els programaris instal·lats als ordinadors encara segueix sentnecessari, per les seves capacitats i rapidesa. Més quan, estem treballant amb gransvolums d'informació (com grans documents, imatges, audio...).

Approaches to OER Development

OER development is becoming more sophisticated as instructors and course specialists become more familiar with the environment. Most OER development approaches for online courses have been developed from those that were appropriate in the face-to-face context. However, the OER online environment opens up new possibilities for learning as well as holding particular limitations. This paper presents some approaches that OER implementers should bear in mind when initiating and supporting OER course development projects.1. Beg, borrow, or steal courseware. Don't reinvent the wheel.2. Take what exists and build the course around it.3. Mix and match. Assemble. Don't create.4. Avoid the "not invented here" syndrome. 5. Know the content -garbage in and garbage out.6. Establish deadlines. Work to deadlines, but don't be unrealistic. 7. Estimate your costs and then double them. Double them again. 8. Be realistic in scheduling and scoping.9. The project plan must be flexible. Be prepared for major shifts.10. Build flexibly for reuse and repurposing -generalizability reduces costs 11. Provide different routes to learning. 12. Build to international standards.There are necessary features in every OER, including introduction, schedule etc. but it is most important to keep the course as simple as possible. Extreme Programming (XP) methodology can be adapted from software engineering to aid in the course development process.

LHMC : un centre multimèdia Linux

En aquest projecte es desenvolupa el maquinari i el programari d'un centre multimèdia. Aquest és un sistema elemental, capaç de reproduir i copiar fitxers d'imatge, so i vídeo provinents del mateix sistema, d'un dispositiu extern com per exemple un disc òptic o una memòria flash, i també d'altres sistemes connectats en xarxa. El programari és de codi obert, està desenvolupat per funcionar amb el sistema operatiu Linux i està implementat amb Java. Es realitza una aplicació escalable per facilitar l’addició de funcionalitats.

Artrodesis posterior C1-C2. Resultados y comparación de la fijación transarticular e interarticular en una serie de 36 pacientes

Objetivo. Analizar los resultados de la fijación transarticular e interarticular en dos series de pacientes. Métodos. Se analizaron 36 pacientes con inestabilidad C1-C2, 20 tratados mediante fijación transarticular, y 15 con fijación interarticular. Se obtuvieron datos sobre las complicaciones, evolución radiológica y resultados clínicos. Resultados. De los tratados con fijación transarticular se obtuvieron resultados buenos en 17 casos, regular en 2 y malo en 1. En la fijación interarticular en 14 se obtuvieron un buen resultado, y regular en 2. Conclusiones. La fijación C1-C2 transarticular e interarticular resulta segura, con presentando altas tasas de buenos resultados con pocas complicaciones.

Bristle pattern formation in the thorax formation of Drosophila: a systems level approach

A fundamental question in developmental biology is how tissues are patterned to give rise to differentiated body structures with distinct morphologies. The Drosophila wing disc offers an accessible model to understand epithelial spatial patterning. It has been studied extensively using genetic and molecular approaches. Bristle patterns on the thorax, which arise from the medial part of the wing disc, are a classical model of pattern formation, dependent on a pre-pattern of trans-activators and –repressors. Despite of decades of molecular studies, we still only know a subset of the factors that determine the pre-pattern. We are applying a novel and interdisciplinary approach to predict regulatory interactions in this system. It is based on the description of expression patterns by simple logical relations (addition, subtraction, intersection and union) between simple shapes (graphical primitives). Similarities and relations between primitives have been shown to be predictive of regulatory relationships between the corresponding regulatory factors in other Systems, such as the Drosophila egg. Furthermore, they provide the basis for dynamical models of the bristle-patterning network, which enable us to make even more detailed predictions on gene regulation and expression dynamics. We have obtained a data-set of wing disc expression patterns which we are now processing to obtain average expression patterns for each gene. Through triangulation of the images we can transform the expression patterns into vectors which can easily be analysed by Standard clustering methods. These analyses will allow us to identify primitives and regulatory interactions. We expect to identify new regulatory interactions and to understand the basic Dynamics of the regulatory network responsible for thorax patterning. These results will provide us with a better understanding of the rules governing gene regulatory networks in general, and provide the basis for future studies of the evolution of the thorax-patterning network in particular.
