Inversion Analytics: Análisis sobre rentabilidad de inversiones mediante VAN y TIR

Inversion Analytics es una herramienta para facilitar el análisis en inversiones que se planteen en pequeñas, medianas y grandes empresas, en el que se plasmará toda la información necesaria para determinar los valores que entran en juego en la inversión. La aplicación realiza esta función mediante el cálculo de VAN (Valor Actual Neto) y TIR (Tasa Interna de Rentabilidad) de una inversión determinada, a partir de la información introducida por el usuario y teniendo en cuenta los distintos métodos de amortización de la inversión inicial, así como los distintos enfoques o supuestos en el que clasificaremos el horizonte temporal de la misma.

La Inspiració de Van Gogh

La Inspiració de Van Gogh ofereix una reflexió entre les similituds i coincidències de dues societats (la societat de finals del sXIX, i la societat actual) separades pel temps, però unides per la necessitat de trobar una sortida a tanta incomprensió artística i social.

A cartography of the Van der Waals territory

The distribution of distances from atoms of a particular element E to a probe atom X (oxygen in most cases), both bonded and intermolecular non-bonded contacts, has been analyzed. In general, the distribution is characterized by a maximum at short EX distances corresponding to chemical bonds, followed by a range of unpopulated distances the van der Waals gap and a second maximum at longer distances the van der Waals peak superimposed on a random distribution function that roughly follows a d3 dependence. The analysis of more than five million interatomic"non-bonded" distances has led to the proposal of a consistent set of van der Waals radii for most naturally occurring elements, and its applicability to other element pairs has been tested for a set of more than three million data, all of them compared to over one million bond distances.

Superstars need social benefits: an experiment on network formation

We investigate contributions to the provision of public goods on a network when efficient provision requires the formation of a star network. We provide a theoretical analysis and study behavior is a controlled laboratory experiment. In a 2x2 design, we examine the effects of group size and the presence of (social) benefits for incoming links. We find that social benefits are highly important. They facilitate convergence to equilibrium networks and enhance the stability and efficiency of the outcome. Moreover, in large groups social benefits encourage the formation of superstars: star networks in which the core contributes more than expected in the stage-game equilibrium. We show that this result is predicted by a repeated game equilibrium.

Cap a on van els programes de garantia social

En el present estudi es descriu l'experiència de la implantació dels PGS en la comunitat de Castella-La Manxa, partint d'un marc conceptual en el que es descriuen les modalitats i característiques de programes. Es detallen les dades obtingudes mitjançant d'un estudi empíric que ofereix informació sobre els diferents agents (professorat, alumnes, famílies) que concurreixen en tals Programes de Garantía Social.

Ellis-Van Creveld Syndrome. Case report and literature review

Ellis-van Creveld syndrome is a genetic disorder that was first described by Richard Ellis and Simon van Creveld in 1940. The four principal characteristics are chondrodysplasia, polydactyly, ectodermal dysplasia and congenital heart defects. The orofacial manifestations include multiple gingivolabial musculofibrous fraenula, dental anomalies, hypodontia and malocclusion. The disease can be diagnosed at any age, even during pregnancy. The differentiation should be made between Jeune syndrome and other orofaciodigital syndromes

New biogeographical and morphological information on Physaloptera ngoci Le-Van-Hoa, 1961 (Nematoda: Physalopteridae) in South-east Asian rodents

During a study of the helminth fauna of 1,643 rodents trapped along the Mekong River (Thailand, LaoPeople"s Democratic Republic and Cambodia) in 2008-2011, the spirurid nematode Physaloptera ngoci Le-Van-Hoa,1961 was recovered with an overall prevalence of 2.8%. Based on the original description, it was identified in nine of 23 different Murinae host species and is here reported for the first time from these three countries. A scanning electron microscopy study provides additional morphological data.

DOMINIQUE VALÉRIAN (ed.) (Cyrille Aillet, Sophie Gilotte, AnnelieseNef, Christophe Picard, Jean-Pierre Van Staëvel, Élise Voguet):Islamisation et arabisation de l’Occident musulman médiéval (VIIe–XIIesiècle)

This book is the result of a one-year seminar series"Islam médiéval d"Occident (VIIe-XVe)", held at the Colegio de España in Paris in 2006-07 by the Association des doctorants en histoire des mondes musulmans médievaux (Diwan http://diwan.hypotheses.org), and a second volume focusing on Arabization is expected (p. 33). The contributors" experience, alongside their university and research backgrounds, have led to the publication of articles of an outstandingly high level throughout this book. This scholarly achievement is combined with a thought-provoking theoretical framework, where Arabization and Islamization give a common theme to the proceedings, which are developed in four parts.

Els mamuts es van extingir per falta de diversitat genètica

Els mamuts han sigut els mamífers més grans que hi ha hagut a terra ferma, i han esdevingut una icona de la prehistòria. També són un paradigma de les extincions. Últimament, la possibilitat d'analitzar el genoma d'espècies extingides ha obert una nova porta per estudiar els mecanismes que porten a l'extinció. Un equip de recerca, internacional i multidisciplinari, ha analitzat i comparat el genoma de diversos mamut llanuts ( Mammuthus primigenius ). Segons l'estudi, publicat a Current Biology, la pèrdua de diversitat genètica va ser clau per a la seva extinció.
