The idea of grand unification in a minimal supersymmetric SU(5) x SU(5) framework is revisited. It is shown that the unification of gauge couplings into a unique coupling constant can be achieved at a high-energy scale compatible with proton decay constraints. This requires the addition of minimal particle content at intermediate energy scales. In particular, the introduction of the SU(2)(L) triplets belonging to the (15, 1)+((15) over bar, 1) representations, as well as of the scalar triplet Sigma(3) and octet Sigma(8) in the (24, 1) representation, turns out to be crucial for unification. The masses of these intermediate particles can vary over a wide range, and even lie in the TeV region. In contrast, the exotic vector-like fermions must be heavy enough and have masses above 10(10) GeV. We also show that, if the SU(5) x SU(5) theory is embedded into a heterotic string scenario, it is not possible to achieve gauge coupling unification with gravity at the perturbative string scale.

We consider the quark sector of theories containing three scalar SU(2)(L) doublets in the triplet representation of A(4) (or S-4) and three generations of quarks in arbitrary A(4) (or S-4) representations. We show that for all possible choices of quark field representations and for all possible alignments of the Higgs vacuum expectation values that can constitute global minima of the scalar potential, it is not possible to obtain simultaneously nonvanishing quark masses and a nonvanishing CP-violating phase in the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa quark mixing matrix. As a result, in this minimal form, models with three scalar fields in the triplet representation of A(4) or S-4 cannot be extended to the quark sector in a way consistent with experiment.

Esta investigación relaciona el margen de solvencia que normativamente deben acreditar los aseguradores de vida con los recursos propios que cualquier empresa debe poseer para poder ejercer su actividad. Analizaremos la incidencia que la remuneración de esos recursos tiene en la propia actividad de comercialización de los seguros demostrando su relación inversa con el tipo de interés garantizado en los contratos. Analizaremos asimismo la incidencia que los eventuales cambios en los tipos de interés pueden tener en la remuneración que puede ofrecerse a esos recursos y propondremos una ecuación que incorpore todos estos aspectos, comprobando que las relaciones que actualmente ofrece la disciplina académica son casos particulares de la ecuación general, casos que demostraremos que incorporan unas hipótesis implícitas bastante restrictivas.

L'objectiu principal d'aquest treball ha estat buscar i valorar les diferents opcions que hi ha en la gestió de projectes per a estimar-ne els costos relacionats. La primera de les tasques que s'ha fet és definir el terme 'projecte' per esbrinar quins tipus de projectes són susceptibles de ser valorats; aquesta tipificació ha portat a dividir els projectes en dues branques molt diferenciades, tot i que relacionades, durant el seu desenvolupament.

A wide range of numerical models and tools have been developed over the last decades to support the decision making process in environmental applications, ranging from physical models to a variety of statistically-based methods. In this study, a landslide susceptibility map of a part of Three Gorges Reservoir region of China was produced, employing binary logistic regression analyses. The available information includes the digital elevation model of the region, geological map and different GIS layers including land cover data obtained from satellite imagery. The landslides were observed and documented during the field studies. The validation analysis is exploited to investigate the quality of mapping.

The general perspective of M-technologies and M-Services at the Spanish universities is not still in a very high level when we are ending the first decade of the 21st century. Some Universities and some of their libraries are starting to try out with M-technologies, but are still far from a model of massive exploitation, less than in some other countries. A deep study is needed to know the main reasons, study that we will not do in this paper. This general perspective does not mean that there are no significant initiatives which start to trust in M-technologies from Universities and their libraries. Models based in M-technologies make more sense than ever in open universities and in open libraries. That's the reason why the UOC's Library began in late 90s its first experiences in the M-Technologies and M-Libraries developments. In 1999 the appropriate technology offered the opportunity to carry out the first pilot test with SMS, and then applying the WAP technology. At those moments we managed to link-up mobile phones to the OPAC through a WAP system that allowed searching the catalogue by categories and finding the final location of a document, offering also the address of the library in which the user could loan it. Since then, UOC (and its library) directs its efforts towards adapting the offer of services to all sorts of M-devices used by end users. Left the WAP technology, nowadays the library is experimenting with some new devices like e-books, and some new services to get more feedback through the OPAC and metalibrary search products. We propose the case of Open University of Catalonia, in two levels: M-services applied in the library and M-technologies applied in some other university services and resources.

Gene expression data from microarrays are being applied to predict preclinical and clinical endpoints, but the reliability of these predictions has not been established. In the MAQC-II project, 36 independent teams analyzed six microarray data sets to generate predictive models for classifying a sample with respect to one of 13 endpoints indicative of lung or liver toxicity in rodents, or of breast cancer, multiple myeloma or neuroblastoma in humans. In total, >30,000 models were built using many combinations of analytical methods. The teams generated predictive models without knowing the biological meaning of some of the endpoints and, to mimic clinical reality, tested the models on data that had not been used for training. We found that model performance depended largely on the endpoint and team proficiency and that different approaches generated models of similar performance. The conclusions and recommendations from MAQC-II should be useful for regulatory agencies, study committees and independent investigators that evaluate methods for global gene expression analysis.

El present treball de recerca és una primera aproximació teòrico-metodològica a l'estudi de “l’entrevista filmada” per a la recerca social. En ell s'analitza la tensió conceptual entre els dos termes: "l'entrevista" i el "filmar". Així mateix, es posen a prova els conceptes plantejats en diferents contextos i pràctiques de recerca, atenent específicament als models de col•laboració i els rols aquí sorgits, amb l'objectiu de formular un marc interpretatiu de les qüestions a les quals s'enfronta l'investigador a l'hora de planejar, filmar i usar l'entrevista en una recerca social

First, we examine the context of creation of special collection units in libraries, and the reasons why libraries compile archive materials and collections. Second, we focus on the techniques used in library environments to describe archive materials and collections and to guarantee their accessibility. We examine the models used in the United States and the United Kingdom to describe and access these materials, and the cooperative projects launched in these two countries in the past few years. Finally, we offer a preliminary analysis of how these types of materials are currently dealt with in Catalan libraries, and issue some recommendations to improve their archiving and access.

In 1991 was brought to light a collection of architectural terracottas from the villa of the Vilarenc and some pieces from Tarraco that were identified as lastre Campana. Five years later, in the excavations of the Plaza de la Font of Tarragona, a collection of six pieces was discovered. Altogether, the collection is based in 14/15 lastre and 4 different topics: “Women flanking a candelabra”, “Theseus known by his father”, “Adornment of a hermes” and “Scene of portico of palestra”. The interest of these finds lies in several factors: Their absolute exceptionality (it is very rare to find them outside of Italy); the geographical concentration, the topics, and their chronological relation and precise culture, since the finds are concentrated in a provincial capital and its territory, and they come from contexts of the beginning of first century AD. The physicochimique analyses make possible to assign an origin from Latium to some pieces and a local manufacture to others. These finds make possible to talk about the area and the provincial impact of certain iconographic and cultural models of Augustus’ time.

Spectrum scarcity demands thinking new ways tomanage the distribution of radio frequency bands so that its use is more effective. The emerging technology that can enable this paradigm shift is the cognitive radio. Different models fororganizing and managing cognitive radios have emerged, all with specific strategic purposes. In this article we review the allocation spectrum patterns of cognitive radio networks andanalyse which are the common basis of each model.We expose the vulnerabilities and open challenges that still threaten the adoptionand exploitation of cognitive radios for open civil networks.

Aquest estudi sorgeix de la hipòtesis de la existència d’una relació entre l’estructura del paisatge i l’ocurrència d’incendis. Per a modelitzar aquesta relació i establir models predictius, s’analitza en primer lloc l’estructura del paisatge de l’Espanya peninsular i les Illes Balears, utilitzant eines SIG i un conjunt d’índexs d’ecologia del paisatge, aplicats sobre una malla regular de 10x10 km. Per a modelitzar els incendis d’origen humà ocorreguts durant el període 1989 – 1993, ambdós inclosos, s’utilitza la regressió logística binària, amb la prèvia reducció del nombre de variables mitjançant anàlisi de conglomerats.

En este documento se formula un modelo de predicción de la insolvencia a través de la combinación de diferentes variables cuantitativas extraídas de los estados contables de una muestra de empresas para los años 1994-1997. Partiendo del modelo de flexibilidad financiera de Donaldson, que es adaptado por Van Frederikslust a la predicción de la insolvencia, lo que aquí se expone es una aplicación a una muestra de empresas de los sectores textil y confección. Aunque los resultados no son alentadores, lo más importante es destacar cómo a través de una modelización de este tipo, probamos una formulación teórica del problema.

La comunicación entre los enfermeros y los pacientes oncológicos es fundamental en la construcción de la relación profesional y terapéutica y esencial para administrar unos cuidados realmente enfocados en la persona como ser holístico y no como entidad patológica. Diferentes estudios han demostrado la influencia positiva de la comunicación en la satisfacción del paciente e incluso se ha encontrado relación entre una comunicación efectiva y una mayor adherencia al tratamiento, mejor control del dolor y estado psicológico. La comunicación, como herramienta para establecer una relación terapéutica eficaz, a su vez básica para el cuidado de cualquier paciente, es entonces “la herramienta” y prerrequisito indispensable para cuidar estos pacientes desde una perspectiva holística. Pese a la centralidad en el cuidado enfermero, la comunicación no se emplea en modo correcto en muchos casos. Objetivos: Este trabajo tiene como objetivo individuar las principales habilidades (skills) para lograr una comunicación terapéutica eficaz y cómo emplearlas en la construcción y mantenimiento de la relación terapéutica con el paciente y su familia. Método: búsqueda bibliográfica con las siguientes palabras clave: comunicación, paliativos, enfermería. Se han incluido en la revisión 27 artículos de 17 revistas distintas. Resultados: Las habilidades y factores encontrados en la literatura han sido clasificados en: a. barreras a la comunicación terapéutica b. condiciones y habilidades facilitadoras de la comunicaciónvi c. habilidades de relación d. habilidades para solicitar información e. estrategias y modelos de comunicación Conclusiones: La comunicación es la herramienta principal del cuidado enfermero en cuidados paliativos, difiere de la comunicación social y tiene como objetivo aumentar la calidad de vida del paciente. La habilidad en comunicación no es un don innato sino que es el resultado de un proceso de aprendizaje continuo. Entre las habilidades más citadas y efectivas hay que recordar la escucha activa (entendida como conjunto de técnicas), el tacto terapéutico, el contacto visual, la empatía y la importancia fundamental de la comunicación no verbal. El modelo de comunicación COMFORT es el único centrado en el paciente y a la vez en su familia. Palabras clave: Habilidades comunicación, paliativos, enfermería
