La protection des données personnelles en Suisse trouve son fondement dans la constitution et se concrétise avant tout dans une loi fédérale adoptée avant l'avènement d'Internet et la généralisation de la transmission d'informations personnelles sur des réseaux numériques. Cette réglementation est complétée par les engagements internationaux de la Suisse et notamment la Convention européenne des Droits de l'Homme du Conseil de l'Europe. L'article délimite tout d'abord le champ d'application de la législation, qui joue un rôle pour le traitement de données personnelles par des particuliers comme par les autorités de l'administration fédérale. Suit une brève analyse des principes fondamentaux (licéité, bonne foi, proportionnalité, finalité, exactitude, communication à l'étranger, sécurité, droit d'accès) et de leur application sur Internet. Enfin, la protection du contenu des messages électroniques privés est brièvement abordée sous l'angle du secret des télécommunications et à la lumière d'une jurisprudence récente du Tribunal fédéral.

La technique d’empreinte génétique par rep-PCR, qui utilise des séquences d’ADN répétitives, a été utilisée pour mettre en évidence la présence de groupes d’Escherichia coli signatures pour divers poulaillers et d’évaluer leur évolution suite au détassement. L’amorce (GTG)5 a été utilisée pour générer des empreintes d’ADN de 522 isolats provenant de 7 poulaillers échantillonnés deux fois : juste avant et 5 jours après le détassement. Les empreintes d’ADN ont été analysées selon l’algorithme de correspondance de bandes de Jaccard. Les analyses de Jackknife des coefficients de similitude ont révélé qu’entre 73% et 93% des isolats ont pu être correctement regroupés selon leur poulailler d’origine. Un dendrogramme construit à partir des coefficients de similitude de Jaccard a groupé les isolats dans 42 grappes avec près de la moitié dans une seule grappe. Environ 80% des isolats ont été groupés dans les 6 plus grosses grappes. Quatre de ces grappes été constituées majoritairement d’isolats provenant d’un seul site. Ces grappes pourraient être des grappes signatures qui permettraient d’identifier des poulaillers en particulier. La comparaison des nombres de grappes présentes avant et après le détassement a révélé une variabilité de l’impact du détassement sur les populations fécales d’E. coli. Pour certains sites, il y avait peu d’agrégats présents tant avant qu’après le détassement alors que pour d’autres sites c’était le contraire. Quoique plus de recherches soient nécessaires afin de valider les conclusions, nos résultats suggèrent la présence de sous-populations signatures d’E. coli pour certains poulaillers et une réponse variable à l’effet du détassement.

Abstract 1: Social Networks such as Twitter are often used for disseminating and collecting information during natural disasters. The potential for its use in Disaster Management has been acknowledged. However, more nuanced understanding of the communications that take place on social networks are required to more effectively integrate this information into the processes within disaster management. The type and value of information shared should be assessed, determining the benefits and issues, with credibility and reliability as known concerns. Mapping the tweets in relation to the modelled stages of a disaster can be a useful evaluation for determining the benefits/drawbacks of using data from social networks, such as Twitter, in disaster management.A thematic analysis of tweets’ content, language and tone during the UK Storms and Floods 2013/14 was conducted. Manual scripting was used to determine the official sequence of events, and classify the stages of the disaster into the phases of the Disaster Management Lifecycle, to produce a timeline. Twenty- five topics discussed on Twitter emerged, and three key types of tweets, based on the language and tone, were identified. The timeline represents the events of the disaster, according to the Met Office reports, classed into B. Faulkner’s Disaster Management Lifecycle framework. Context is provided when observing the analysed tweets against the timeline. This illustrates a potential basis and benefit for mapping tweets into the Disaster Management Lifecycle phases. Comparing the number of tweets submitted in each month with the timeline, suggests users tweet more as an event heightens and persists. Furthermore, users generally express greater emotion and urgency in their tweets.This paper concludes that the thematic analysis of content on social networks, such as Twitter, can be useful in gaining additional perspectives for disaster management. It demonstrates that mapping tweets into the phases of a Disaster Management Lifecycle model can have benefits in the recovery phase, not just in the response phase, to potentially improve future policies and activities. Abstract2: The current execution of privacy policies, as a mode of communicating information to users, is unsatisfactory. Social networking sites (SNS) exemplify this issue, attracting growing concerns regarding their use of personal data and its effect on user privacy. This demonstrates the need for more informative policies. However, SNS lack the incentives required to improve policies, which is exacerbated by the difficulties of creating a policy that is both concise and compliant. Standardization addresses many of these issues, providing benefits for users and SNS, although it is only possible if policies share attributes which can be standardized. This investigation used thematic analysis and cross- document structure theory, to assess the similarity of attributes between the privacy policies (as available in August 2014), of the six most frequently visited SNS globally. Using the Jaccard similarity coefficient, two types of attribute were measured; the clauses used by SNS and the coverage of forty recommendations made by the UK Information Commissioner’s Office. Analysis showed that whilst similarity in the clauses used was low, similarity in the recommendations covered was high, indicating that SNS use different clauses, but to convey similar information. The analysis also showed that low similarity in the clauses was largely due to differences in semantics, elaboration and functionality between SNS. Therefore, this paper proposes that the policies of SNS already share attributes, indicating the feasibility of standardization and five recommendations are made to begin facilitating this, based on the findings of the investigation.

Averiguar las razones de la disminución, desde la promulgación de la LODE en 1985, del número de profesores candidatos al puesto de director o directora escolar. Analizar el desajuste entre las caracterÃsticas personales, administrativas y profesionales que el profesorado desea para esta figura y su imagen real. Descubrir los motivos de la mayor inhibición femenina hacia dicho puesto. Hipótesis: 1.La discrepancia entre la definición legal de la dirección y los problemas de su desenvolvimiento cotidiano, fomenta su rechazo. 2.La escasez de directoras se debe a la sobrecarga profesional y doméstica de las mujeres y al prejuicio social sexista. 383 profesores y profesoras y directores y directoras de EGB y BUP en Madrid capital y las localidades distantes menos de 30 kilómetros. 1.Estudio previo de la situación de la dirección escolar en España, comparada con otros paÃses, análisis de la caracterización socio-profesional de la figura del director y justificación del enfoque de investigación elegido, desde la PsicologÃa Cognitiva y de la Personalidad. 2.Trabajo de campo, a partir de 5 protocolos abiertos, con las variables del tipo de centro, sexo y situación docente. Las respuestas se sometieron a un análisis de contenido para obtener una plantilla de evaluación. Protocolos abiertos, producción libre de atributos, esquemas de codificación lingüÃstico y semántico-conceptual, modelos de PsicologÃa de la Personalidad (Big Five). Matriz nxr (tablas de contingencia), tablas 2x2, corrección de Jaccard, Ãndices de dispersión, Ãndices de concordancia, Ãndice de Kaiser-Meyer-Olkin, estadÃstico de esfericidad de Barlett, medidas de asociación, análisis de distribución, reescalamiento. Se considera que los rasgos personales son los que deben definir la figura del director o directora escolar, frente a sus competencias, funciones o formación. Las principales causas del rechazo de los profesores y profesoras a presentarse a director o directora son la complejidad del rol (exceso de responsabilidad y trabajo, problemas de relación con los compañeros/as) y los motivos personales (falta de capacidad). La escasez de directoras responde al doble turno doméstico-familiar de la mujer y al estereotipo sexual asociado al cargo de director. Se confirma que los profesores y las profesoras no quieren asumir la dirección, sin aducir entre las razones ninguna de las competencias asignadas en la LODE y aceptando pasivamente el modelo legal de dirección. Existe una gran distancia entre la representación mental de la figura actual del director o directora (bastante negativa) y la de su figura ideal (casi utópica). La escasa representación de la mujer en la dirección escolar es un reflejo de lo que ocurre en otros ámbitos sociales..

The diversity of social bees was assessed at 15 sites across five locations of the Nilgiri Biosphere Reserve, Western Ghats, India, from January to December 2007. We also conducted floristic analyses of local vegetation in each site using one-hectare sample plots. All woody species with a dbh (diameter at breast height) : 30 cm were recorded within the plots. A total area of 9.72 ha was assessed for floristic composition. Similarity of floristic composition between sites was determined using the Jaccard's distance measure and a dendrogram constructed based on the hierarchical clustering of floristic dissimilarities between sites. A Bee Importance Index (BII) was developed to give a measure of the bee diversity at each site. This index was a sum of the species richness of bee species in a site and their visitation frequencies to flowers, calculated as mean flower visits hour 1 within 2 focal patches within one hectare plots. The visits of bee species to flowers were also recorded. The Jaccard distance measure indicated that the montane sites were quite dissimilar to the low elevation sites in floristic diversity. The BII was 7-9 for the wet forest sites and ranged from 4-6 for drier forest sites. Seventy three plant species were identified as social bee plants and of them 45% were visited by one species of bee, 37% by two bee species and 18% by more than two bee species, indicating a certain degree of floral specialization among bees.

Amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) genetic fingerprinting of 14 accessions of Chara curta and Chara aspera Willd., sampled across a range of habitats and morphologies in Britain, suggests that these taxa are part of the variation within a single species complex. Two primer combinations generating 397 fragments (97% of which were polymorphic), analysed by Jaccard's similarity coefficient and principal co-ordinate analysis, did not recover groups which reflect the current taxonomy. By contrast with the genetic study, a Gower general similarity coefficient and principal co-ordinate analysis of 52 morphological characters recovered the currently recognized species groups. A Mantel test showed no significant correlation between the genetic data and the morphological data, supporting the hypothesis that phenotypic variability in Chara L. is either to some extent environmentally induced or represents developmental stages. Implications for the conservation status of C. curta in Britain are discussed. (c) 2007 The Linnean Society of London, Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 2007, 155, 467-476.

The putative virulence and antimicrobial resistance gene contents of extended spectrum β-lactamase (ESBL)-positive E. coli (n=629) isolated between 2005 and 2009 from humans, animals and animal food products in Germany, The Netherlands and the UK were compared using a microarray approach to test the suitability of this approach with regard to determining their similarities. A selection of isolates (n=313) were also analysed by multilocus sequence typing (MLST). Isolates harbouring blaCTX-M-group-1 dominated (66%, n=418) and originated from both animals and cases of human infections in all three countries; 23% (n=144) of all isolates contained both blaCTX-M-group-1 and blaOXA-1-like genes, predominantly from humans (n=127) and UK cattle (n=15). The antimicrobial resistance and virulence gene profiles of this collection of isolates were highly diverse. A substantial number of human isolates (32%, n=87) did not share more than 40% similarity (based on the Jaccard coefficient) with animal isolates. A further 43% of human isolates from the three countries (n=117) were at least 40% similar to each other and to five isolates from UK cattle and one each from Dutch chicken meat and a German dog; the members of this group usually harboured genes such as mph(A), mrx, aac(6’)-Ib, catB3, blaOXA-1-like and blaCTX-M-group-1. forty-four per cent of the MLST-typed isolates in this group belonged to ST131 (n=18) and 22% to ST405 (n=9), all from humans. Among animal isolates subjected to MLST (n=258), only 1.2% (n=3) were more than 70% similar to human isolates in gene profiles and shared the same MLST clonal complex with the corresponding human isolates. The results suggest that minimising human-to-human transmission is essential to control the spread of ESBL-positive E. coli in humans.

As matas ribeirinhas no rio Camaquã constituem os maiores remanescentes da Floresta Estacional Semidecidual Ribeirinha no Estado, sendo muito pouco conhecidas florÃstica e fitossociologicamente. Em um fragmento de mata ribeirinha na margem esquerda do baixo rio Camaquã, municÃpio de Cristal (31°01’01.7’’S e 51°56’42.0’’W, em torno de 14 m.n.m.) realizou-se um estudo do componente arbóreo, com o intuito de se determinar sua estrutura e relacionar os resultados obtidos com outras florestas no Estado. O clima da região é do tipo Cfa de Köppen, com médias anuais de temperatura de 18,9 °C, e de precipitação de 1.234 mm. Os solos são do tipo Planossolo Hidromórfico Eutrófico (Sge), de textura média/siltosa. O levantamento fitossociológico foi realizado em uma área de 1 ha, dividida em 100 parcelas de 10 x 10 m, onde foram amostradas todas as árvores com DAP maior ou igual a 5 cm. Foram calculados os parâmetros fitossociológicos empregados usualmente, além das estimativas de diversidade de Shannon (H’) e equabilidade de Pielou (J’). Relações florÃsticas com outras áreas foram feitas através da análise de coordenadas principais e de agrupamento, utilizando os Ãndices de similaridade de Jaccard e Dice. No levantamento florÃstico foram encontradas 68 espécies arbóreas, a maioria caracterÃsticas de ambientes ribeirinhos. Na fitossociologia foram amostrados 2.179 indivÃduos, pertencentes a 29 espécies, 25 gêneros e 14 famÃlias. As famÃlias Myrtaceae, Euphorbiaceae, Fabaceae, Sapindaceae e Salicaceae apresentaram as maiores riquezas. Os valores de importância mais elevados foram registrados para espécies tÃpicas de sub-bosque, que apresentam grande densidade (Sebastiania commersoniana, Allophylus edulis e Eugenia schuechiana). As espécies ocupantes do dossel, com densidades baixas ou intermediárias (Luehea divaricata e Nectandra megapotamica) destacam-se pela dominância. O Ãndice de diversidade foi estimado em 2,342 nats.ind.-1 (J’= 0,695), sendo intermediário entre os menores valores estimados para as matas de restingas e os maiores para Florestas Estacionais Semideciduais na região. O predomÃnio de espécies zoocóricas demonstra ser uma floresta madura, embora se tenha encontrado uma grande participação de indivÃduos com sÃndrome de dispersão abióticas. Por sua localização na PlanÃcie Costeira Interna, a área apresentou, floristicamente, uma grande influência de espécies provenientes das matas de encosta da Serra do Sudeste, havendo uma maior similaridade com as matas do rio Piratini e outras Florestas Estacionais Semideciduais.

Neste estudo foram investigadas a diversidade, a composição, e as diferenças no uso do espaço (hábitat e microhábitat) e do alimento em uma comunidade de lagartos habitantes da serapilheira de um fragmento de Mata Atlântica, do Estado de Alagoas, Brasil. Para a observação e/ou coleta dos espécimes, foram utilizados os métodos de busca ativa e armadilhas de queda (pit-fall traps) sem cerca-guia. Para análises de diversidade e da existência de diferenças de diversidade entre os hábitats e microhábitats, utilizou-se o Ãndice de Shannon. A largura dos nichos espacial (hábitat e microhábitat) e alimentar foi avaliada, utilizando-se o Ãndice de diversidade de Simpson. A similaridade entre as áreas foi averiguada utilizando-se o Ãndice de Jaccard. Para avaliar o grau de sobreposição quanto ao uso do espaço (hábitats e microhábitats) e do alimento pelas espécies, foi utilizada uma versão da equação de MarcArthur & Levis. Foram obtidas vinte e três espécies de lagartos, pertencentes a nove famÃlias; destas, dezenove foram obtidas no interior da mata e nove na borda. Para o interior da mata as espécies mais abundantes foram Kentropyx calcarata, Dryadosaura nordestina, Enyalius catenatus e Gymnodactylus darwinii. Na borda da mata as espécies mais abundantes foram Tropidurus hispidus, T. semitaeniatus, Ophiodes striatus e Ameiva ameiva. Quanto à utilização dos recursos, os resultados mostraram que espécies filogeneticamente próximas nem sempre utilizam de maneira semelhante os recursos disponÃveis. A dieta em geral foi composta por artrópodes. Tropidurus hispidus e T. semitaeniatus se mostraram especialistas no consumo de Himenoptera (Formicidae), que estiverem presentes em 100% dos seus estômagos. Ophiodes striatus teve como principal alimento caramujos (Gastropoda) e aranhas com 60% cada; sendo Gastropoda mais abundante para esta espécie

Flavobacterium columnare is a cosmopolite bacteria and it is one of the main problem in Brazilian aquaculture, causing high mortalities index and economic damage. The main factors that contribute to columnaris disease are inadequate water quality, excess handling, high density of fish and temperature variations. For a successful epidemiological study and disease control, it is essential to differentiate the F. columnare from other yellow pigmentation bacteria. The present study used molecular techniques to characterize, by RAPD-PCR, two strains of F. columnare isolated from Oreochromis niloticus and Brycon orbignyanus. Data were analyzed as binary (0 and 1) and a genetic similarity matrix was generated by Jaccard's coefficient. Cluster analysis was performed by the neighbor joining method. The RAPD-PCR technique confirmed to be a usefull tool to obtain genetic profiles from F. columnare isolates based on the oligonucleotides used and to verify genetic similarity.

A necessidade de se conhecer mais sobre o Bioma Cerrado torna-se cada vez mais urgente, devido à sua destruição acelerada. Este trabalho realizou o levantamento florÃstico-fitossociológico de uma área de cerrado sensu stricto na Fazenda Santa CecÃlia, municÃpio de PatrocÃnio Paulista, nordeste do Estado de São Paulo (20º 46' 2 S e 47º 14' 24 W, 836 m de altitude e Neossolo Quartzarênico). em 30 parcelas de 10 x 10 m, foram amostrados 511 indivÃduos arbustivo-arbóreos de PAP > 15 cm, pertencentes a 30 famÃlias, 38 gêneros e 53 espécies. As famÃlias com maior riqueza especÃfica foram Fabaceae (sete espécies), Myrtaceae (cinco espécies), Vochysiaceae (quatro espécies), Annonaceae (três espécies) e Caesalpiniaceae (três espécies), totalizando 45% das espécies. As espécies de maior valor de importância (IVI) foram: Qualea grandiflora (62,38), Dalbergia miscolobium (22,24), Styrax camporum (21,86), Ocotea corymbosa (18,02), Qualea parviflora (14,97) e Qualea multiflora (11,46). A comunidade arbórea apresentou densidade de 1.703 indivÃduos por hectare, Ãndice de Shannon (H') de 3,05 e Ãndice de similaridade de Jaccard (ISj) de 45% quando comparado com área próxima de cerrado.

Este estudo visou avaliar a variabilidade e distância genética dentro de uma população-base de melhoramento genético de Eucalyptus grandis. A avaliação da variabilidade genética tem como objetivos principais analisar a base genética da população-base e montar um banco de dados marcadores moleculares da população em análise. Essa população é formada por 327 indivÃduos, principalmente das procedências de Coff's Harbour, Atherton e Rio Claro. Devido à heterozigosidade natural dessa população, ela pode ser dividida em diversas subpopulações, de acordo com a latitude e longitude de origem; e dentro de subpopulações, em função do grau de melhoramento genético já realizado do material analisado no Brasil. Isso permitiu avaliar quanto da variabilidade detectada dentro da população-base foi devido a esses fatores: procedência e grau de melhoramento. A aplicação da técnica RAPD permitiu avaliar 70 locos polimórficos, que foram analisados utilizando-se o coeficiente de Jaccard, o que resultou em matrizes de similaridade genética entre os indivÃduos. Os dados de similaridade genética posteriormente foram submetidos à análise estatÃstica. Osdados indicaram que a população-base apresenta ampla base genética, com média de similaridade genética de 0,328. O subgrupo denominado Região 3, composto por material selvagem da macrorregião de Atherton, juntamente com material de APS da macrorregião de Coff's Harbour, foi um dos que mais contribuÃram para a ampla base genética da população-base. Foi possÃvel detectar diferença estatÃstica entre as populações selvagens das procedências de Atherton e Coff's Harbour, assim como entre essas procedências e a de Rio Claro.

The behavioral patterns follow to environmental changes, including area fidelity and individuals association patterns. Several techniques are used to record these behavioral patterns and the photo-identification has been suggested as a proper tool because of its various advantages. Based on this technique, this research verified, between August of 2005 and January of 2006, area fidelity and association patterns of Sotalia guianensis, at Distrito de Pipa s bays, Rio Grande do Norte State south coast. Besides, we measured the association patterns by using the Jaccard index or Half-Weight Index (HWI). According the observation, 22 individuals were not resighted, 11 were resighted, and 36 new individuals were recorded. Nowadays, 69 individuals are cataloged. The residency rate indicated heterogeneity on studied area permanence and the association patterns between photo-identified seem to be context-specific. In addiction, the comparison of associations between two different age classes showed some individuals more frequently interacting with immature individuals. We also observed fluidity on association patterns among our individuals. We suggest that S. guianensis population from Pipa shows plasticity
