Creació d’un visor web basat en software lliure per al Consorci d’Ardenya-Cadiretes

En aquest treball es pretén explicar el procés metodològic que s'ha seguit per a crear una eina informàtica de visualització de dades "online" per al Consorci d'Ardenya – Cadiretes. Inicialment s'explica el context en el que es desenvolupa el projecte, com a conveni de col·laboració en pràctiques, per a realitzar el treball de final del Màster en Tecnologies de la Informació Geogràfica, en la seva tretzena edició. S'explica també la situació de l'entitat col·laboradora del projecte, el consorci d'Ardenya – Cadiretes. Els objectius que es fixen al projecte són els de generar aquest visor amb eines de software lliure, de manera que el cost de producció sigui el menor possible. També es pretén crear una aplicació de senzill ús i que resulti atractiva per al client web. Es repassen els diferents aspectes tècnics i funcionals que ha de tenir en compte el projecte, per tal que aquest es pugui desenvolupar de forma correcte. Es tracten temes com el tipus de programari que s'ha de fer servir i per que unes aplicacions es consideren més oportunes que d'altres per a treballar tasques concretes del propi projecte. A través de la metodologia seguida en el projecte es repassa el dia a dia que s'ha anat seguint durant el projecte, des de l'inici en el que s'instal·laven els diferents programes necessaris fins al final de l'escriptura del codi de programació, passant per l'edició de les dades geogràfiques o la càrrega d'aquestes al servidor de mapes

Natural genetic variation of root system architecture from Arabidopsis to Brachypodium: towards adaptive value.

Root system architecture is a trait that displays considerable plasticity because of its sensitivity to environmental stimuli. Nevertheless, to a significant degree it is genetically constrained as suggested by surveys of its natural genetic variation. A few regulators of root system architecture have been isolated as quantitative trait loci through the natural variation approach in the dicotyledon model, Arabidopsis. This provides proof of principle that allelic variation for root system architecture traits exists, is genetically tractable, and might be exploited for crop breeding. Beyond Arabidopsis, Brachypodium could serve as both a credible and experimentally accessible model for root system architecture variation in monocotyledons, as suggested by first glimpses of the different root morphologies of Brachypodium accessions. Whether a direct knowledge transfer gained from molecular model system studies will work in practice remains unclear however, because of a lack of comprehensive understanding of root system physiology in the native context. For instance, apart from a few notable exceptions, the adaptive value of genetic variation in root system modulators is unknown. Future studies should thus aim at comprehensive characterization of the role of genetic players in root system architecture variation by taking into account the native environmental conditions, in particular soil characteristics.

Virtualización y cloud computing en la PYME

El presente documento introduce a las pequeñas y medianas empresas en el mundo de la virtualización y el cloud computing. Partiendo de la presentación de ambas tecnologías, se recorren las diferentes fases por las que atraviesa un proyecto tecnológico consistente en la instalación de una plataforma virtualizada que alberga los sistemas informáticos básicos en una PYME.

A construção de um software educativo sobre ausculta dos sons respiratórios

O estudo objetivou relatar a experiência da construção de um software educativo sobre a ausculta dos sons respiratórios. Nesse processo, aplicou-se o referencial pedagógico de Lev Semenovic Vygotsky, e delimitou-se o conteúdo de modo a abarcar o método da ausculta passo a passo, as finalidades, a classificação dos sons normais e adventícios e as respectivas características estetoacústicas. Para o desenvolvimento do sistema, foi utilizada a tecnologia 3D, incluindo avatares (personificações virtuais do paciente, do enfermeiro e dos objetos) e ambiente virtual para a ausculta, usando procedimentos de simulação. Ao final do processo, concluiu-se que iniciativas dessa natureza, embora sejam permeadas de dificuldades, trazem contribuições importantes ao ensino-aprendizagem de conteúdos relativos à área da Enfermagem.

Propuesta para incorporar evaluación y pruebas de usabilidad dentro de un proceso de desarrollo de software

Usability is critical to consider an interactive software system successful. Usability testing and evaluation during product development have gained wide acceptance as a strategy to improve product quality. Early introduction of usability perspectives in a product is very important in order to provide a clear visibility of the quality aspects not only for the developers, but also for the testing users as well. However, usability evaluation and testing are not commonly taken into consideration as an essential element of the software development process. Then, this paper exposes a proposal to introduce usability evaluation and testing within a software development through reuse of software artifacts. Additionally, it suggests the introduction of an auditor within the classification of actors for usability tests. It also proposes an improvement of checklists used for heuristics evaluation, adding quantitative and qualitative aspects to them

The role of transcription factories-mediated interchromosomal contacts in the organization of nuclear architecture.

Using numerical simulations, we investigate the underlying physical effects responsible for the overall organization of chromosomal territories in interphase nuclei. In particular, we address the following three questions: (i) why are chromosomal territories with relatively high transcriptional activity on average, closer to the centre of cell's nucleus than those with the lower activity? (ii) Why are actively transcribed genes usually located at the periphery of their chromosomal territories? (iii) Why are pair-wise contacts between active and inactive genes less frequent than those involving only active or only inactive genes? We show that transcription factories-mediated contacts between active genes belonging to different chromosomal territories are instrumental for all these features of nuclear organization to emerge spontaneously due to entropic effects arising when chromatin fibres are highly crowded.

Plastinated Ethmoidal Region : II. The Preparation and Use of Radio-Opaque Artery Casts in Clinical Teaching.

In endoscopic sinus surgery, knowledge of the course of the internal ethmoida and orbital arteries is crucial.The maxillary and the internal carotid arteries of cadavers were injected with radio-opaque , red colorede silicone. The ethmoidal regions were perpared and plastinated using the standard S10 technique. On some specimens, the ophtalmic and ethmoidal arteries were dissected prior to plastination. The plastinated specimens of the ethmoidal blocks were successfullyintroduced into clinical teaching of sinus anatomy and surgery as an aid to study vaascularization an dits relationship to surgical procedures. Among the advantages of this method are the long-lasting preservation of dissected tissue, visualization of arteries during endoscopic and radiological examinations, and invaluable teachjing and training resources for endoscopic sinus surgery.
