Bulas e Cartelas de Medicamentos: Possíveis soluções de leiturabilidade através do Design Gráfico

The package inserts for drugs represent the main source of written information provided to patients, but the deficiency in the page layouts of informational texts (readability), the excess of information and use of techno-scientific language hamper the effectiveness of communication between the author (manufacturer) and player (patient) in addition to the physiological conditions of patients are often elderly. This article discusses these issues from theoretical predictions, and proposes solutions to the adequacy of information graphics package inserts of drugs and facilitating the identification of drug cards.

Procedimentos metodológicos em design gráfico voltados a jornais diários impressos: estudos e relatos de experiência

This paper summarizes a research that has been developed from the concern about a company’s strategic planning, once regarding the product development process and its methodological guidelines. Our goal was to check if there is an ideal methodology, peculiar to the graphic design, which could be applied to a printed newspaper condition. And then, we could deduce, according to the design practices in newspapers, its relevance. We did not intend to create a specific graphic design methodology for daily newspapers, nor the analysis of methods, but we wanted to emphasize that the familiarization with acknowledged methods in the field of visual communication, during the process of professional formation, might ease good choices in the work practice on design. The understanding of the gradual introduction of graphic design on printed daily newspapers brings about, thus, not only their visual improvement, but also allows that this kind of journalism (which depends on a graphic interface in order to make their product come true) reconsider the newspaper as a whole.

Analog circuit synthesis performing fast Pareto frontier exploration and analysis through 3D graphs

This paper presents a technique for performing analog design synthesis at circuit level providing feedback to the designer through the exploration of the Pareto frontier. A modified simulated annealing which is able to perform crossover with past anchor points when a local minimum is found which is used as the optimization algorithm on the initial synthesis procedure. After all specifications are met, the algorithm searches for the extreme points of the Pareto frontier in order to obtain a non-exhaustive exploration of the Pareto front. Finally, multi-objective particle swarm optimization is used to spread the results and to find a more accurate frontier. Piecewise linear functions are used as single-objective cost functions to produce a smooth and equal convergence of all measurements to the desired specifications during the composition of the aggregate objective function. To verify the presented technique two circuits were designed, which are: a Miller amplifier with 96 dB Voltage gain, 15.48 MHz unity gain frequency, slew rate of 19.2 V/mu s with a current supply of 385.15 mu A, and a complementary folded cascode with 104.25 dB Voltage gain, 18.15 MHz of unity gain frequency and a slew rate of 13.370 MV/mu s. These circuits were synthesized using a 0.35 mu m technology. The results show that the method provides a fast approach for good solutions using the modified SA and further good Pareto front exploration through its connection to the particle swarm optimization algorithm.

Engorde de pulpo común Octopus vulgaris en jaulas en la comunidad Canaria [Material gráfico] [Recurso electrónico] : efecto de la dieta y la densidad inicial

Octopus vulgaris on-growing in floating cages is a promising activity implemented in Spain at industrial level, with productions of 16-32 tons/year from 1998. Nevertheless, some aspects of the culture system need to be evaluated to warrantee its profitability. In the present work absolute growth rate (AGR, g/day) and mortality (%) under two initial rearing densities, 10 and 17 kg/m3, were compared under two feeding regimes over 15 weeks. One diet was composed by bogue, supplied as ?discarded? species from local fish farms. The other diet was based on a 40-60% discarded bogue-crab Portunus pelagicus. Half of the reared octopuses were PIT-tagged and two sampling points were established along the experimental period. Regardless of dietary treatment, up to the 11th week, growth was 19 and 13 g./day for the low and high rearing density. On the other hand, up to the 11th week mortality was higher in the control diet fed group (30%), reaching 74-84% by the end of the experiment regardless of rearing density and dietary treatment, which could suggest some nutritional imbalance of the tested diets.

Gráfico interactivo de las relaciones derivativas entre palabras del español

[ES] La aplicación Gráfico interactivo de las relaciones derivativas entre palabras del español se centra en realizar un tratamiento a la información recabada en la tesis Sistema computacional de la gestión morfológica del español, de toda la información que contiene esta tesis este proyecto hace uso recogiendo cualquier palabra introducida por el usuario, buscando su forma canónica y devolviendo en forma gráfica la familia de palabras relacionada con esta, mediante un grafo. Esta aplicación web tiene como objetivo hacer amena la legibilidad y consulta de la información mencionada. Para lograr este objetivo se ha desarrollado una interfaz muy sencilla para el usuario, en la que éste solo tiene que introducir una palabra y relacionarla mediante un click. Una vez realizada la búsqueda, la aplicación permite al usuario interactuar con el grafo, pudiendo moverlo por la pantalla a su antojo, también tiene la función de mostrar los hijos de un nodo hoja al pasar el puntero por encima de éste y al hacer doble click sobre un nodo hoja, sea hijo o nieto de la raíz, devolviendo un nuevo grafo con el nodo seleccionado como raíz del mismo y mostrando sus hijos y nietos si los tuviera.
