Disseny i implementació d'un sistema de detecció de recursos i topologia de xarxa per a entorns Multicluster no dedicats

Degut a la gran quantitat de problemes que requereixen grans potències de càlcul, s'empren sistemes de computació anomenats clústers, multiclústers i supercomputadors. Avui en dia aquests clústers son emprats en àrees de recerca, centres facultatius, etc. Per aconseguir optimitzar al màxim els recursos cal estudiar la interconnexió entre els sistemes per tal de determinar les possibles restriccions que es poden donar i disposar d'un mecanisme de monitorització de l'estat de la xarxa i dels nodes. Aquest treball pretén resoldre aquestes carències, aportant un estudi de la xarxa de l'àrea de treball d'un multiclúster i un programa que permeti descobrir les màquines d'un domini i la seva capacitat de comunicació amb la resta.

Questioni di pulizia: rappresentazioni e valori

In the framework of social representation, this research explores how the concept of cleanness does not refer solely to individual hygienic praxes and thoughts, but it is also linked to social and cultural aspects. In this way, the definitions of what is dirty and what is clean, what is pure and what is impure, are linked to social discrimination attitudes, based for example on the fear for contamination. Our general hypothesis is that the representations of dirt/cleanness and purity/impurity define ideas and praxes linked to personal hygiene, but refer also to the way people interact with the world and the others. Hence, we hypothesize that the representations of dirt/cleanness and purity/impurity are linked to values and political and religious orientations. A questionnaire with closed-answer questions and a free association task were distributed to 450 subjects. Results show how, in effects, the concepts of dirt/cleanness, purity/ impurity skip from their daily praxis connotations and assume a symbolic function for discriminating between individuals and social groups.

Análisis traductológico de referentes culturales en La Testa Perduta di Damasceno Monteiro de Antonio Tabucchi

Este trabajo de investigación pretende llevar a cabo un estudio exploratorio para observar cómo se resuelven los problemas traductológicos de índole cultural dentro del contexto de la autotraducción in mente. El trabajo está estructurado en dos partes: la primera abarca el marco teórico referencial como base para poder desarrollar la segunda parte, el apartado práctico, donde se llevará a cabo el análisis traductológico de referentes culturales para obtener los resultados de los objetivos e hipótesis planteados. Para llevar a cabo dicho análisis, se parte de una serie de ejemplos (rich points) de La testa perduta di Damasceno Monteiro de Antonio Tabucchi, una obra escrita en italiano que se enmarca y refleja la cultura portuguesa

Guidelines for the use and interpretation of assays for monitoring autophagy.

In 2008 we published the first set of guidelines for standardizing research in autophagy. Since then, research on this topic has continued to accelerate, and many new scientists have entered the field. Our knowledge base and relevant new technologies have also been expanding. Accordingly, it is important to update these guidelines for monitoring autophagy in different organisms. Various reviews have described the range of assays that have been used for this purpose. Nevertheless, there continues to be confusion regarding acceptable methods to measure autophagy, especially in multicellular eukaryotes. A key point that needs to be emphasized is that there is a difference between measurements that monitor the numbers or volume of autophagic elements (e.g., autophagosomes or autolysosomes) at any stage of the autophagic process vs. those that measure flux through the autophagy pathway (i.e., the complete process); thus, a block in macroautophagy that results in autophagosome accumulation needs to be differentiated from stimuli that result in increased autophagic activity, defined as increased autophagy induction coupled with increased delivery to, and degradation within, lysosomes (in most higher eukaryotes and some protists such as Dictyostelium) or the vacuole (in plants and fungi). In other words, it is especially important that investigators new to the field understand that the appearance of more autophagosomes does not necessarily equate with more autophagy. In fact, in many cases, autophagosomes accumulate because of a block in trafficking to lysosomes without a concomitant change in autophagosome biogenesis, whereas an increase in autolysosomes may reflect a reduction in degradative activity. Here, we present a set of guidelines for the selection and interpretation of methods for use by investigators who aim to examine macroautophagy and related processes, as well as for reviewers who need to provide realistic and reasonable critiques of papers that are focused on these processes. These guidelines are not meant to be a formulaic set of rules, because the appropriate assays depend in part on the question being asked and the system being used. In addition, we emphasize that no individual assay is guaranteed to be the most appropriate one in every situation, and we strongly recommend the use of multiple assays to monitor autophagy. In these guidelines, we consider these various methods of assessing autophagy and what information can, or cannot, be obtained from them. Finally, by discussing the merits and limits of particular autophagy assays, we hope to encourage technical innovation in the field.
