Dynamiques du développement de la pisciculture dans deux régions du Brésil : une approche comparée

Based on a historical approach, fish farming development was compared in two differentiated Brazilian areas. This study mobilizes the concept of Innovative Local System (ILS) together with the theoretical framework of the Sociology of Innovation and of the Economies of Size. We found that all the relationships within Ribeira Valley are mainly commercial based. There is neither coordination nor linking actions among the components of ILS. Hence, the "network" was unable to create technological or organizational innovations capable of facing any economic crisis. Conversely, in the Itajai High Valley, the socio-technological fish farming network has been developed on social, commercial, and trustful relationships. All interactions among the components of the ILS were coordinated to each other which allowed this network to react when economic or climatic threats threatened the sustainability of fish farming.

Une architecture sensible au contexte pour le développement des systèmes d'administration pour l'enseignement

The increasing use of mobile devices and wireless communication technologies has improved the access to web information systems. However, the development of these systems imposes new challenges mainly due to the heterogeneity of mobile devices, the management of context information, and the complexity of adaptation process. Especially in this case, these systems should be runable on a great number of mobile devices models. In this article, we describe a context-aware architecture that provides solutions to the challenges presented above for the development of education administration systems. Copyright 2009 ACM.

Emprego e trabalho no início do século XXI: revisitando Keynes e Marx

The nature of labor in advanced economies has presented a significant change lately. The technological process has resulted in the reduction of labor without content and the expansion of labor with higher qualification or schooling, a phenomenon that can be discussed by turning to Keynes and Marx. As far as Keynes is concerned, his foresight was that technological progress would generate a huge reduction of labor time and the expansion of leisure time. Since this did not occur, the failure may be attributed to the fact of having worked with opposition between labor without content and leisure. Thus, it was not possible to capture the historical changes in labor and man's relationship with it. Marx's viewpoint is completely different, because his opposition takes place between labor without content and activity labor, the latter impregnated with content and essential to the development of individualities. Therefore, present reality has a greater identification with Marx and presents major challenges to capitalism and its critique.

Pertubation du développement d'une incisive permanente incluse due à un traumatisme de la dent primire

Les anomalies du développement des dents permanentes peuvent être dues à un traumatisme des dents primaires, étant donné la proximité de la racine des dents primaires avec les dents permanentes sous-jacentes. Nous décrivons le cas d'un garçon de 14 mois qui a été dirigé vers la clinique pédiatrique de l'École de médecine dentaire de l'Universidad Estadual Paulista d'Araçatuba, au Brésil, après avoir subi un grave traumatisme qui a causé l'intrusion de l'incisive centrale droite primaire. L'examen radiographique réalisé 4 ans après le traumatisme a révélé un changement morphologique évolutif dans le germe de la dent permanente. Au moment de son éruption, l'incisive centrale permanente présentait une malformation coronaire avec hypoplasie de l'émail. Nous avons conclu qu'un suivi radiographique est indiqué après un traumatisme afin de surveiller les séquelles qui peuvent survenir dans les dents permanentes, même avant leur éruption.
