La R+D en investigació literària

Aquesta ponència reflexiona sobre el concepte i l'evolució de la recerca i el desenvolupament (R+D) en investigació literària als territoris de llengua i cultura catalanes. Des de punts de vista quantitatius i qualitatius, s'examinen els agents de recerca involucrats (universitats, instituts i grups de recerca, fundacions, etc.) i els recursos invertits (humans, econòmics i materials), així com els resultats obtinguts (monografies i capítols, revistes i articles, tesis doctorals, comunicacions de congressos, etc.). Les dades s'han obtingut de diverses fonts d'informació, fet que evidencia els importants problemes metodològics en la seva recollida (manca de reculls objectius i sistemàtics, treball manual per recopilar i organitzar la informació adient, etc.). Sempre que és possible, la informació s'estudia segons les diferents àrees geogràfiques i àmbits d'especialització (literatura contemporània; literatura moderna; literatura medieval; i, finalment, estudis transversals i de teoria de la literatura i literatura comparada). Per acabar, s'extreuen algunes conclusions sobre la R+D literària i les seves perspectives de futur.

Towards a theory of the credit-risk balance sheet (II). The evolution of its structure

This article has an immediate predecessor, upon which it is based and with which readers must necessarily be familiar: Towards a Theory of the Credit-Risk Balance Sheet (Vallverdú, Somoza and Moya, 2006). The Balance Sheet is conceptualised on the basis of the duality of a credit-based transaction; it deals with its theoretical foundations, providing evidence of a causal credit-risk duality, that is, a true causal relationship; its characteristics, properties and its static and dynamic characteristics are analyzed. This article, which provides a logical continuation to the previous one, studies the evolution of the structure of the Credit-Risk Balance Sheet as a consequence of a business¿s dynamics in the credit area. Given the Credit-Risk Balance Sheet of a company at any given time, it attempts to estimate, by means of sequential analysis, its structural evolution, showing its usefulness in the management and control of credit and risk. To do this, it bases itself, with the necessary adaptations, on the by-now classic works of Palomba and Cutolo. The establishment of the corresponding transformation matrices allows one to move from an initial balance sheet structure to a final, future one, to understand its credit-risk situation trends, as well as to make possible its monitoring and control, basic elements in providing support for risk management.

Spanish unemployment : normative versus analytical regionalisation procedures

In applied regional analysis, statistical information is usually published at different territorial levels with the aim providing inforamtion of interest for different potential users. When using this information, there are two different choices: first, to use normative regions ( towns, provinces, etc.) or, second, to design analytical regions directly related with the analysed phenomena. In this paper, privincial time series of unemployment rates in Spain are used in order to compare the results obtained by applying yoy analytical regionalisation models ( a two stages procedure based on cluster analysis and a procedure based on mathematical programming) with the normative regions available at two different scales: NUTS II and NUTS I. The results have shown that more homogeneous regions were designed when applying both analytical regionalisation tools. Two other obtained interesting results are related with the fact that analytical regions were also more estable along time and with the effects of scales in the regionalisation process

Heterogeneous discounting in consumption-investment problems. Time consistent solutions

[cat] En aquest treball s'analitza un model estocàstic en temps continu en el que l'agent decisor descompta les utilitats instantànies i la funció final amb taxes de preferència temporal constants però diferents. En aquest context es poden modelitzar problemes en els quals, quan el temps s'acosta al moment final, la valoració de la funció final incrementa en comparació amb les utilitats instantànies. Aquest tipus d'asimetria no es pot descriure ni amb un descompte estàndard ni amb un variable. Per tal d'obtenir solucions consistents temporalment es deriva l'equació de programació dinàmica estocàstica, les solucions de la qual són equilibris Markovians. Per a aquest tipus de preferències temporals, s'estudia el model clàssic de consum i inversió (Merton, 1971) per a les funcions d'utilitat del tipus CRRA i CARA, comparant els equilibris Markovians amb les solucions inconsistents temporalment. Finalment es discuteix la introducció del temps final aleatori.

Topologies for poin distributions

The concepts of void and cluster for an arbitrary point distribution in a domain D are defined and characterized by some parameters such as volume, density, number of points belonging to them, shape, etc. After assigning a weight to each void and clusterwhich is a function of its characteristicsthe concept of distance between two point configurations S1 and S2 in D is introduced, both with and without the help of a lattice in the domain D. This defines a topology for the point distributions in D, which is different for the different characterizations of the voids and clusters.

Padrões nutricionais para lavouras arrozeiras irrigadas por inundação pelos métodos da CDN chance matemática

Para o arroz irrigado, poucos trabalhos utilizam métodos de diagnose foliar desenvolvidos para as condições locais de clima, solo ou cultivares. O objetivo deste trabalho foi avaliar os métodos da Diagnose da Composição Nutricional e da Chance Matemática na definição dos padrões nutricionais de lavouras arrozeiras do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Resultados de produtividade de grãos e teores foliares de N, P, K, Ca, Mg, S, B, Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn e Mo de 356 lavouras arrozeiras cultivadas sob sistema de irrigação por inundação foram utilizados para a determinação das faixas de suficiência calculadas pelo método da Chance Matemática. As faixas de suficiência foram comparadas com valores críticos propostos pela literatura e com o intervalo de confiança do teor médio dos nutrientes em lavouras consideradas nutricionalmente equilibradas, identificadas pelo método Diagnose da Composição Nutricional. Observou-se pouca concordância entre os valores das faixas de suficiência indicados pelos métodos da Chance Matemática e da Diagnose da Composição Nutricional e os respectivos valores indicados na literatura. A faixa de teores foliares adequados, consistentes com maior produtividade média das lavouras arrozeiras, foi indicada ser de 23 a 28 g kg-1 para N; 11 a 14 g kg-1 para K; 1,4 a 2,0 g kg-1 para S; 6 a 12 mg kg-1 para B; e 70 a 200 mg kg-1 para Fe. Para os teores foliares de P, Ca, Mg, B, Cu, Mn e Zn e Mo nenhuma das faixas adequadas testadas indicou capacidade para distinguir as lavouras arrozeiras quanto à produtividade média.

Positivismo e matemática escolar dos livros didáticos no advento da República

O estudo da presença da matriz positivista na história da educação brasileira vem sendo feito, muitas vezes, de forma mecânica e reducionista pela historiografia tradicional. A partir da perspectiva da história cultural, este artigo toma o livro didático como objeto cultural para mostrar que tipo de apropriação o cotidiano escolar realizou, por ocasião do advento da República, do pensamento positivista no ensino da matemática escolar. Tal análise concentra-se na resposta à questão: existiu, em algum momento da história da educação brasileira, uma matemática escolar positivista?
