Ensaio sobre as imagens. A criação do roteiro de Blindness de Fernando Meireles, adaptado do romance: Ensaio sobre a cegueira de José Saramago para as telas de cinema

A dissertação se propõe a investigar as diferentes formas de estruturas narrativas para o desenvolvimento em um roteiro cinematográfico, adaptado de uma obra literária. Para este trabalho, vamos usar como corpus o romance Ensaio sobre a cegueira de José Saramago que foi adaptado pelo roteirista Don Mckellar, originando o filme dirigido por Fernando Meirelles, em 2008. A finalidade deste recorte é mostrar o processo de construção narrativa no audiovisual, tendo como base o livro. Nessa investigação, o suporte para análise do audiovisual será realizado com conceituados especialistas em roteiros cinematográfico como Linda Hutcheon, Robert Mckee, Jean-Claude Carriére, Flávio de Campos e David Howard. As possibilidades da criação do roteiro seguirão o mote em quatro divisões: narrativa, estrutura, ensaio sobre imagens e da palavra para imagem, procurando responder como a linguagem intervém no sentido da palavra para imagem e como ocorre o conceito de autoria nessa vertente da adaptação. A trama de Ensaio sobre a cegueira, traz elementos clássicos da estrutura dramática e amplia sua dimensão em relação ao conteúdo da estória na roteirização de Don Mckellar. Com esta pesquisa, esperamos contribuir para um melhor entendimento na construção e organização de um roteiro no processo de adaptação em si

East African Fisheries Research Organization Annual Report 1955/1956

This report covers the period 1st July, 1955, to 30th June, 1956. As printing has been delayed for various reasons, reference should be made to certain important proposals put forward since the 30th June. Just after the close of the year a meeting of the Lake Victoria Fisheries Board was held at Entebbe on 26th July. At this meeting disagreement arose between the representatives of the three East African Governments on the subject of whether or not existing restrictions on fishing in Lake Victoria should be retained. This organization holds strongly to the view that the existing restrictions on fishing should be retained, Kenya holds similar views, but Uganda and Tanganyika were in favour of a proposal to lift these restrictions. This question was discussed a month earlier by the Director with the Colonial Office Fisheries Advisory Committee and they also advised the Lake Victoria Fisheries Board against lifting the restrictions.

Modelling the evolution of uncertainty levels during design

Design work involves uncertainty that arises from, and influences, the progressive development of solutions. This paper analyses the influences of evolving uncertainty levels on the design process. We focus on uncertainties associated with choosing the values of design parameters, and do not consider in detail the issues that arise when parameters must first be identified. Aspects of uncertainty and its evolution are discussed, and a new task-based model is introduced to describe process behaviour in terms of changing uncertainty levels. The model is applied to study two process configuration problems based on aircraft wing design: one using an analytical solution and one using Monte-Carlo simulation. The applications show that modelling uncertainty levels during design can help assess management policies, such as how many concepts should be considered during design and to what level of accuracy. © 2011 Springer-Verlag.

Light and scanning electron microscopic study of Balantidium ctenopharyngodoni Chen, 1955 (Class : Litostomatea) from China

Redescription of Balantidium ctenopharyngodoni "Chen (Acta Hydrobiol Sin 1:123-164, 1955)", collected from the hindgut of grass carp (Ctenopharyngodon idella), especially the segment of 6-10 cm upstream from the anus, from Honghu Lake, Hubei Province, central China in November 2005, is presented in this paper to complete Chen's description at both light and scanning electron microscopic levels. Some revisions were done: the vestibulum is fairly symmetrical, with compactly arranged cilia rather than assembled membrane bordering on the left vestibular side; four contractile vacuoles actually exist in the latter body, three of which surround the posterior portion of the macronucleus, whereas the fourth lies antero-left to it. Somatic monokinetids were compared among the species of genus Balantidium. The cysts were described, and possible infection routes of B. ctenopharyngodoni were also discussed.
