A ironia de Geni e o Zepelim: sujeitos, poderes e mundos no tempo da suspensão

The purpose of this article is to analyze the song "Geni e o Zepelim", by Chico Buarque, from the point of view of the social voices present and orchestrated by the narrator. The hypothesis is that the image of the song uncovers the nation´s prejudice by criticizing the hypocrisy conducted by the narrator. In order to do so the song is used as the corpus of analysis, which is taken as a discursive arena where social voices discuss and combat. Therefore, it is possible to analyze the criticism regarding prostitution prejudice and Geni a transvestite inflicted ironically by the narrator’s voice – projected by the authorship in the song. Based on the dialogism present in the subjects voices in the lyrics, considering Bakhtin´s Circle perspectives. The center of analysis is the ironic relationships of power because the subjects position symbolize distinct social power spheres, which by irony are relativized. Therefore, thinking about these relations means reflecting about the construction of a certain speech in time and space, which collaborates with the reconstruction of subjects and social realities.

Imagens aéreas multiespectrais na identificação de zonas de manejo em áreas de algodão para aplicação localizada de insumos

Crop yield is influenced by several factors with variability in time and space that are associated with the variations in the plant vigor. This variability allows the identification of management zones and site-specific applications to manage different regions of the field. The purpose of this study was the use of multispectral image for management zones identification and implications of site-specific application in commercial cotton areas. Multispectral airborne images from three years were used to classify a field into three vegetation classes via the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI). The NDVI classes were used to verify the potential differences between plant physical measurements and identify management zones. The cotton plant measurements sampled in 8 repetitions of 10 plants at each NDVI class were Stand Count, Plant Height, Total Nodes and Total Bolls. Statistical analysis was performed with treatments arranged in split plot design with Tukey’s Test at 5% of probability. The images were classified into five NDVI classes to evaluate the relationship between cotton plant measurement results and sampling location across the field. The results have demonstrated the possibility of using multispectral image for management zones identification in cotton areas. The image classification into three NDVI classes showed three different zones in the field with similar characteristics for the studied years. Statistical differences were shown for plant height, total nodes and total bolls between low and high NDVI classes for all years. High NDVI classes contained plants with greater height, total nodes and total bolls compared to low NDVI classes. There was no difference in Stand Count between low and high NDVI classes for the three studied years. The final plant stand was the same between all NDVI classes for 2001 and 2003 as it was expected due to the conventional seeding application with the same rate of seeds for the entire field.

Spatio-Temporal Event Model for Cyber-Physical Systems

The emerging Cyber-Physical Systems (CPSs) are envisioned to integrate computation, communication and control with the physical world. Therefore, CPS requires close interactions between the cyber and physical worlds both in time and space. These interactions are usually governed by events, which occur in the physical world and should autonomously be reflected in the cyber-world, and actions, which are taken by the CPS as a result of detection of events and certain decision mechanisms. Both event detection and action decision operations should be performed accurately and timely to guarantee temporal and spatial correctness. This calls for a flexible architecture and task representation framework to analyze CP operations. In this paper, we explore the temporal and spatial properties of events, define a novel CPS architecture, and develop a layered spatiotemporal event model for CPS. The event is represented as a function of attribute-based, temporal, and spatial event conditions. Moreover, logical operators are used to combine different types of event conditions to capture composite events. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first event model that captures the heterogeneous characteristics of CPS for formal temporal and spatial analysis.

Metamorfosi temporali e spaziali: dal “Revisore” di Nikolaj Gogol’ alla “Morte accidentale di un anarchico” di Dario Fo.

La tesi si propone di tracciare un confronto tra due autori molto distanti tra loro sia nel tempo che nello spazio: Nikolaj Gogol’ e Dario Fo; in particolare si analizzano le commedie Il Revisore di Gogol’ (1836) e Morte accidentale di un anarchico di Fo (1970). Il nesso tra le due opere è stato individuato dalla critica italiana (Franco Quadri, Ferdinando Taviani, Paolo Puppa). Tuttavia gli spunti interpretativi e comparativi non sono mai stati sviluppati appieno della critica. Nonostante le grandi distanze temporali e spaziali, l’analisi si propone dunque di evidenziare i numerosi motivi di consonanza tra le due opere e i due autori, che peraltro testimoniano anche della grande fortuna arrisa all’estero all’autore ucraino, attraverso la mediazione del teatro russo-sovietico del XX secolo. L’approccio metodologico adottato si fonda sui testi dei formalisti russi, di Lotman, sulla Stilkritik di Aurbach, sugli studi di Frye sulla Bibbia intesa come “grande canone” della letteratura occidentale, e soprattutto sull’analisi della cultura carnevalesca e popolare condotta da Bachtin. Lo studio è indirizzato su alcuni elementi precisi: la trama, lo scambio della personalità, l’impostura, la paura e il riso. Per ciascun di questi elementi è stata svolta l’analisi comparativa delle due opere, situandole in un contesto letterario e culturale che va all’antichità e al Medio Evo, dal quale entrambi gli autori mutuano molte suggestioni.

Atomistic simulations of 2D bicomponent self-assembly: from molecular recognition to self-healing

Supramolecular two-dimensional engineering epitomizes the design of complex molecular architectures through recognition events in multicomponent self-assembly. Despite being the subject of in-depth experimental studies, such articulated phenomena have not been yet elucidated in time and space with atomic precision. Here we use atomistic molecular dynamics to simulate the recognition of complementary hydrogen-bonding modules forming 2D porous networks on graphite. We describe the transition path from the melt to the crystalline hexagonal phase and show that self-assembly proceeds through a series of intermediate states featuring a plethora of polygonal types. Finally, we design a novel bicomponent system possessing kinetically improved self-healing ability in silico, thus demonstrating that a priori engineering of 2D self-assembly is possible.

Spatio-temporal Rho GTPase signaling - where are we now?

Rho-family GTPases are molecular switches that transmit extracellular cues to intracellular signaling pathways. Their regulation is likely to be highly regulated in space and in time, but most of what is known about Rho-family GTPase signaling has been derived from techniques that do not resolve these dimensions. New imaging technologies now allow the visualization of Rho GTPase signaling with high spatio-temporal resolution. This has led to insights that significantly extend classic models and call for a novel conceptual framework. These approaches clearly show three things. First, Rho GTPase signaling dynamics occur on micrometer length scales and subminute timescales. Second, multiple subcellular pools of one given Rho GTPase can operate simultaneously in time and space to regulate a wide variety of morphogenetic events (e.g. leading-edge membrane protrusion, tail retraction, membrane ruffling). These different Rho GTPase subcellular pools might be described as 'spatio-temporal signaling modules' and might involve the specific interaction of one GTPase with different guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs), GTPase-activating proteins (GAPs) and effectors. Third, complex spatio-temporal signaling programs that involve precise crosstalk between multiple Rho GTPase signaling modules regulate specific morphogenetic events. The next challenge is to decipher the molecular circuitry underlying this complex spatio-temporal modularity to produce integrated models of Rho GTPase signaling.

Major element composition of phenocrysts from the volcanic basement of ODP Hole 125-786B, Izu forearc region, Philippine Sea

Early arc volcanism during Eocene to Oligocene in the Izu forearc region was investigated during ODP Legs 125 and 126 in 1989, and effusive and intrusive volcanics were recovered from Leg 125 Site 786. These rocks were all classified into boninites and associated rocks by Leg 125 Shipboard Scientific Party, and they concluded that boninitic volcanism had occurred before 40 Ma, and arc tholeiitic volcanism began after 40 Ma. In this study, lava flows and breccias that classified into boninite series are divided into two groups, tholeiite and boninite, based on petrographical and petrological properties. Both series are also distinguished by bulk rock composition. It is considered that the sources of both rock types have similar depleted compositions because of their similar, very low bulk HFSE concentrations. We suggest that boninitic and tholeiitic volcanism occurred closely in time and space, and reflected different temperature and water condition.

Modelo de indicadores ambientales : observatorio ambiental

Los indicadores ambientales son una herramienta para efectuar el monitoreo de la biodiversidad a través de la recolección sistemática de datos obtenidos mediante mediciones u observaciones en series de tiempo y espacio. Se entiende por indicador ambiental a una variable o suma de variables que proporciona una información sintética sobre un fenómeno ambiental complejo que permite conocer y evaluar el estado y variación de la calidad ambiental. Para la caracterización y detección de indicadores ambientales del litoral de Río Negro se identifican y jerarquizan los conflictos o problemáticas del ambiente, a partir de lo cual se seleccionan las principales variables que componen el sistema de indicadores y por último, se recopilan los niveles de información existentes y los que requieren ser relevados e incorporados a bases de datos relacionales. Los requisitos que deben tener los indicadores seleccio nados son: ser medibles (cuali y cuantitativamente), compresibles, fáciles de usar e interrelacionar, tener dimensión espacial y temporal, ser objetivos sensibles a los cambios y permitir el diagnóstico y pronóstico en función de la detección de situaciones de alerta ambiental. Se realiza una aproximación a la selección de variables e indicadores con el fin de definir el modelo de datos y categorías de agrupamiento. El sistema de indicadores generados se agrupa en función de la disponibilidad de datos existentes y la posibilidad de recopilación para un correcto funcionamiento del prototipo del Observatorio. El modelo adoptado incorpora 3 subsistemas (ambiental, social y económico) interrelacionando con 3 nodos institucionales (que proveen y/o precisan estos datos para la toma de decisiones). Cada indicador se describe en una ficha metodológica, cuyo diseño es normalizado para un correcto funcionamiento del Observatorio. La implementación del modelo de indicadores exige contar con una infraestructura que permita la aplicación de mediciones, observaciones y registros y contar además, con personal idóneo para una correcta manipulación y análisis.

Stable-isotope records from Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica

The European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica (EPICA) includes a comprehensive pre-site survey on the inland ice plateau of Dronning Maud Land. This paper focuses on the investigation of the 18O content of shallow firn and ice cores. These cores were dated by profiles derived from dielectric-profiling and continuous flow analysis measurements. The individual records were stacked in order to obtain composite chronologies of 18O contents and accumulation rates with enhanced signal-to-noise variance ratios.These chronologies document variations in the last 200 and 1000 years.The 18O contents and accumulation rates decreased in the 19th century and increased during the 20th century.Using the empirical relationships between stable isotopes, accumulation rates and the 10m firn temperature, the variation of both parameters can be explained by the same temperature history.But other causes for these variations, such as the build-up of the snow cover, cannot be excluded. A marked feature of the 1000 year chronology occurs during the period AD 1180-1530 when the 18O contents remains below the long-term mean. Cross-correlation analyses between five cores from the Weddell Sea region and Dronning Maud Land show that 18O records can in some periods be positively correlated and in others negatively correlated, indicating a complex climatic history in time and space.

Masterchronology on Arctica islandica from Spiekeroog

Sclerochronological records of interannual shell growth variability were established for eight modern shells (26 to 163 years of age) of the bivalve Arctica islandica, which were sampled at one site in the inner German Bight. The records indicate generally low synchrony between individuals. Spectral analysis of the whole 163-yr masterchronology indicated a cyclic pattern with a period of 5 and 7 years. The masterchronology correlated poorly to time series of environmental parameters over the last 90 years. High environmental variability in time and space of the dynamic and complex German Bight hydrographic system results in an extraordinarily high noise' level in the shell growth pattern of Arctica islandica.

Regulación social del mercado de trabajo en contextos productivos flexibles : Una mirada desde la contribución de los trabajadores en la producción de cine publicitario argentino

En esta tesina presentamos los resultados de un proceso de investigación orientado a describir y analizar las influencias que tienen los mecanismos desarrollados por los trabajadores sobre la estructuración de algunas dimensiones claves del mercado de trabajo en el sector de producción de cine publicitario (PcP). La PCP se caracteriza por una modalidad de organización muy flexible y efímera, basada en proyectos individuales, que congrega a los trabajadores y recursos necesarios de forma temporaria. La transitoriedad de los proyectos plantea desafíos formidables con respeto a su coordinación y regulación en el tiempo. Sin embargo, los mismos funcionan sobre una organización permanente sustentada sobre una red de contactos sociales gestados entre los miembros. En este marco, surge nuestro interrogante acerca del papel que juegan las lógicas de los propios trabajadores en el incierto mercado de trabajo de la PCP. La perspectiva teórica adoptada en nuestro trabajo, parte de la consideración de que los mercados de trabajo son producto de construcciones sociales que se diferencian histórica y espacialmente y que por tanto, se hallan socialmente regulados por una diversidad de influencias. Por ello, hemos priorizado la investigación empírica del caso particular. Nuestro objetivo principal, ha supuesto la indagación de distintas dimensiones analíticas. Así, en primer lugar, presentamos las características socioproductivas y económicas más relevantes del sector para luego centrarnos en las cuestiones nodales de nuestro estudio que contemplaron un análisis detallado de los procesos de regulación de algunas dimensiones del mercado de trabajo, a saber: acceso, reclutamiento, calificación y movilidad. Así, esta tesina pretende ser un aporte al análisis de la dinámica de los mercados de trabajo en contextos productivos flexibles, así como una contribución al conocimiento de sectores escasamente abordados por los estudios del trabajo
