Um Método para a Utilização de Ontologias na Indexação Automática

The indexing process aims to represent synthetically the informational content of documents by a set of terms whose meanings indicate the themes or subjects treated by them. With the emergence of the Web, research in automatic indexing received major boost with the necessity of retrieving documents from this huge collection. The traditional indexing languages, used to translate the thematic content of documents in standardized terms, always proved efficient in manual indexing. Ontologies open new perspectives for research in automatic indexing, offering a computer-process able language restricted to a particular domain. The use of ontologies in the automatic indexing process allows using a specific domain language and a logical and conceptual framework to make inferences, and whose relations allow an expansion of the terms extracted directly from the text of the document. This paper presents techniques for the construction and use of ontologies in the automatic indexing process. We conclude that the use of ontologies in the indexing process allows to add not only new feature to the indexing process, but also allows us to think in new and advanced features in an information retrieval system.

O uso das TIC nas aulas de matemática na perspectiva do professor

The objective of this research is to understand whether the mathematics lessons teachers use ICT and how they see their use. For this, we prepared a questionnaire with four questions for the subjects of our research, which are ex - students of Bachelor in Mathematics FEG / UNESP, in exercise of the profession. The questionnaire data were analyzed following the procedures of phenomenological research. This approach enabled us to draw up three open categories. The first Recourse to boost student learning and school, leads us to interpret that for the interviewees, ICT resources are leading students to do research making them responsible for their learning and providing them with conditions respond the issues raised by the teacher, which generates greater interactivity. The second, Possibility to use software related to mathematical content shows that the subject sees ICT as resources that allow the study of mathematical content, especially geometry and functions, so that student learning is leverage. The third, Obstacles to the use of technology in the classroom shows that even if the subjects recognize the importance of ICT use, they do not use it as often as they would like because of the difficulties that are related to infrastructure and didactic and pedagogical conditions

Efeito modulador da estratégia vacinal BCG/DNAhsp65 na encefalite autoimune experimental(EAE)

Tanto o BCG (Bacilo de Calmette-Guérin) quanto a DNAhsp65 são vacinas contra tuberculose, porém além da atividade protetora desejável ambas apresentam atividade imunomoduladora. Seguindo a linha de pesquisa de nosso laboratório que investiga a atividade da DNAhsp65 sobre doenças autoimunes, avaliamos o efeito da associação destas vacinas sob a forma de uma estratégia vacinal tipo prime-boost (priming com BCG seguida de booster com DNAhsp65), sobre o desenvolvimento da Encefalite Autoimune Experimental (EAE), que é modelo animal de esclerose múltipla. Ratos Lewis fêmeas foram divididos em grupos de 5 a 6 animais (salina, BCG, EAE, BCG/EAE, BCG/vetor/EAE e BCG/vacina/EAE) e imunizados em intervalos de 15 dias. Os animais receberam um primming com 2 - 10 x 105 unidades formadoras de colônias de BCG subcutâneo seguido de dois boosters com 300 g de pVAXhsp65 numa solução de sacarose 25% por via intramuscular. A EAE foi induzida 15 dias após a última imunização, por inoculação de 25 g de proteína básica de mielina (MBP) associada ao Adjuvante Completo de Freund contendo Mycobacterium butyricum. Aqueles que não receberam os inóculos descritos foram injetados com salina, exceto o grupo BCG/vetor/EAE que recebeu 300 g de pVAX (vetor plasmidial vazio) também em solução de sacarose. Os animais foram acompanhados diariamente até serem submetidos à eutanásia, 3 semanas mais tarde, durante a fase de recuperação da doença para avaliação da resposta imune, escore clínico e presença de infiltrado inflamatório no SNC. A evolução clínica da EAE foi similar entre animais vacinados e não vacinados, mas a análise histopatológica revelou que a imunização prévia com BCG ou BCG/DNAhsp65 diminui o processo inflamatório. No cérebro foi observada redução acentuada do processo inflamatório nos grupos BCG/EAE, ...(Resumo completo, clicar acesso eletrônico abaixo)

Avaliação de Desempenho de Aplicações Paralelas Utilizando MPI e PETSc

This work presents a study about the use of standards and directions on parallel programming in distributed systems, using the MPI standard and PETSc toolkit, performing an analysis of their performances over certain mathematic operations involving matrices. The concepts are used to develop applications to solve problems involving Principal Components Analysis (PCA), which are executed in a Beowulf cluster. The results are compared to the ones of an analogous application with sequencial execution, and then it is analized if there was any performance boost on the parallel application

Estudo das políticas de obtenção dos assentamentos de reforma agrária no Brasil entre 1985 e 2009

Understanding the territorial transformations is important to the geographic knowledge, especially when it is related to structural questions as agrarian one. In this way, the land acquisition to agrarian reform enables us to understand some of these transformations, represented by territorialization of landless workers in rural settlements, that are concrete results of the struggle for land that boost the policies of agrarian reform in our country. The renewal of the agrarian structure is fundamental to the concept of land reform and also provides that advances social, political, cultural, economic, etc. Classified as a country with rates of the highest land concentration in the world, Brazilian government attempts to base his actions to take in the expropriation of land the main character of the land reform. However, new policies have been gradually used to obtaining the rural settlements, in a process that Fernandes (2010) called the reconceptualization of land reform. Starting in 1985, Brazil has 63% of the beneficiaries of land reform policies settled on expropriated land, the rest is a result of incorporation policies such as land regularization, of land reform and land purchase. Such policies generate changes in agrarian structure, that is the goal of land reform, but don´t concentrate to the land ownership. This attitude of the state in coping with the agrarian question is his response to the pressures of capitalist agriculture represented by landowners and agribusiness, coping catching an intense and uneven territorial dispute with peasant agriculture, in an attempt to impose its model of development for the field. The aimed of this present study is to understand better the land reform acquisition and its implications in the Brazilian territory, in order to understand it in their multiplicity.

Breve análise discursiva em três dicionários de fraseologia

In the current context of Metalexicography several types of studies have been conducted in order to better understand the organization of existing dictionaries and, thus, constitute a knowledge base that would support the development of new works. Regarding specifically the dictionaries of Phraseology, although there are many researchers who engage in this domain, there is still much to study in order to optimize and boost production as much monolingual as bilingual works. The aim of this paper is to present a brief discursive analysis of three phraseological dictionaries considering the pedagogical aspect.

Correlation between pH and surface structural changes on human enamel submitted to different tooth whitening agents

The intense valuation of an esthetic pleasant smile guided the dentistry to bleached tooth due the popularity of whitening treatments. The consequence of it is an increasing interest in searching the effect of peroxides in hard dental tissues. The aim of this work was to analyze qualitatively in vitro the human enamel after three different bleaching treatments: Opalescence PF 10%, White Class 7.5% and Opalescence Xtra Boost 38%, correlating the structural changes in the surface of the enamel with its respective pH. A total of 40 sound human pre-molars were randomly divided into four groups of 10 elements, which had been immersed in artificial saliva during all the experiment. Bleaching protocols followed the recommendations of the respective manufacturers. Each bleached sample and control group were submitted to a scanning electronic microscopy analysis and compared with one another. Bleaching agents used in this experiment had modified the morphologic aspect of the surface of the dental enamel; however, it did not have correlation between the degrees of severity of the alterations and pH. There is a correlation between hydrogen peroxide concentration and changes in the enamel, where G4 showed more severe alterations, followed for G3 and G2.

Influence of standard load micro and nanopatterned in surface roughness of bleached teeth and submitted to different surface treatments?

The aim of this study was evaluate the dental enamel after whitening treatment with Opalescence Boost PF® 38%, correlating the structural alterations in the surface of the enamel with its respective pH and verify if whitened teeth submitted to different finishing and polishing techniques show similar surface texture to healthy teeth (control group). Sixty premolars were divided in 6 groups (n = 10), which had been immersed in artificial saliva during all the experiment. Protocol whitening was performed according to the manufacturer recommendations, and then the specimens were submitted to different polishing technique with Sof-Lex Pop On® disks, Flex Diamond® felt disks using two different micrometric polishing pastes (Enamelize® and Diamond Polish®) and two nanometric polishing pastes (Lummina-E Diamond and Lummina-E Alumina), according to the groups. Representative specimens were analyzed in scanning electronic microscopy (SEM). Whitening gel used in this experiment had modified the morphologic aspect of the enamel surface. It was found that two nanometric polishing pastes (G5 and G6) promoted a less rough surface compared to control group even after the whitening process.
