AutoGest, aplicació de gestió per a empresaris autònoms

L’ objectiu principal d’ aquest projecte és dissenyar una aplicació o una base de dades que permeti: gestionar els diferents objectes que interaccionen en una empresa, gestionar els serveis o productes que s’ofereixen a la venda, gestionar la facturació de l’ empresa, gestionar les compres a empreses externes, controlar els estocs dels diferents articles i poder fer consultes sobre les dades i obtenir-ne llistats, per comprovar si l’empresa té beneficis o dèficit

Speculative parallelization of multipath radiosity algorithm

In computer graphics, global illumination algorithms take into account not only the light that comes directly from the sources, but also the light interreflections. This kind of algorithms produce very realistic images, but at a high computational cost, especially when dealing with complex environments. Parallel computation has been successfully applied to such algorithms in order to make it possible to compute highly-realistic images in a reasonable time. We introduce here a speculation-based parallel solution for a global illumination algorithm in the context of radiosity, in which we have taken advantage of the hierarchical nature of such an algorithm

Point sampling with uniformly distributed lines

In this paper we address the problem of extracting representative point samples from polygonal models. The goal of such a sampling algorithm is to find points that are evenly distributed. We propose star-discrepancy as a measure for sampling quality and propose new sampling methods based on global line distributions. We investigate several line generation algorithms including an efficient hardware-based sampling method. Our method contributes to the area of point-based graphics by extracting points that are more evenly distributed than by sampling with current algorithms

Reuse of paths in light source animation

In this paper we extend the reuse of paths to the shot from a moving light source. In the classical algorithm new paths have to be cast from each new position of a light source. We show that we can reuse all paths for all positions, obtaining in this way a theoretical maximum speed-up equal to the average length of the shooting path

Cancer mortality inequalities in urban areas: a Bayesian small area analysis in Spanish cities

Intra-urban inequalities in mortality have been infrequently analysed in European contexts. The aim of the present study was to analyse patterns of cancer mortality and their relationship with socioeconomic deprivation in small areas in 11 Spanish cities

Eina per a generar l'assignació docent d'un centre

Aquest projecte de final de carrera està basat en la problemàtica que suposa l'assignació de professors sobre un horari docent ja definit. Donat que hi ha diferents limitacions tant per disponibilitat, nombre de crèdits a impartir o perfil docent de la persona, s'ha treballat en una aplicació que permeti la introducció de dades d'una manera simple i intuitiva i l'utilització de diferents resoledors per calcular solucions a partir de les dades inicials

Cancer mortality inequalities in urban areas: a Bayesian small area analysis in Spanish cities [correcció]

After publication of this work in 'International Journal of Health Geographics' on 13 january 2011 was wrong. The map of Barcelona in Figure two (figure 1 here) was reversed. The final correct Figure is presented here
