This work is a study in the Local Productive Arrangement of confections from Agreste of Pernambuco, as a relevant sector in economic and social aspect. This research has as central aim to understand how the inter-organizational relations influence the collective efficiency of arrangement. The theoretical framework employed highlights the approaches that deal with the benefits of business agglomeration for the develop­ment of firms and regions. It has discussed the approach of small and medium enter­ prises and industrial districts (SCHMITZ, 1997), which introduce the concept of col­ lective efficiency, explaining that only those externalities explained by Marshall (1996) are not sufficient to explain the competitive advantage of enterprises, expand­ing the idea that organizations achieve competitive advantage not acting alone. To examine the influences of relations in the collective efficiency, it has been taken as analytical perspective theory of social networks (GRANOVETTER, 1973, 1985; BURT, 1992; UZZI, 1997) because it has believe that this approach provides subsi­ dies for a structural analysis of social relationships in face the behavior of human ac­tion. By examining the organizations in a social network, you should understand the reason of this establishment of the relationship, their benefits, and as the information flow takes place and density of links between the actors (Powell; SMITH-DOERR, 1994). As for the methods, this study is characterized as a case study, in according to the purposed objectives, in addition to qualitative method. Also, due to recovering of the historical milestones of the arrangement, it is used a sectional approach with longitudinal perspective (VIEIRA, 2004). The primary and secondary data were used in order to understand the evolutionary process of the sector and their inter-actors re­ lationships in the arrangement for the promotion of development, for both, was used the contend and documentary analysis technique, respectively (DELLAGNELO ; SIL­VA, 2005). The approach of social networks has permitted understand that social re­lationships may extend the collective efficiency of the arrangement, and therefore need to develop policies that encourage the legalization of informal companies in ar­rangement, by showing up themselves representative. Thus, the relations estab­ lished in LPA of confections from Agreste of Pernambuco need for more effective mechanisms to broaden the collective efficiency. Therefore, this way as take place has directly benefited only a group of companies that are linked in some way the sup­portive institutions. So we can conclude that the inter-actor relations have limited the collective efficiency of LPA, being stimulated by the institutions in support only to groups of entrepreneurs, even those that produce external relations for all clustered companies

Com o passar dos anos, as obras mais sublimes, começam a mostrar marcas subtis ou profundas de deterioração, como por exemplo: fissurações e defeitos associados à humidade. Estes são reflexo de fatores externos, como fungos, a própria atmosfera reativa, mudanças climatéricas e, até mesmo, a ação do homem. Neste seguimento pretende-se estudar as principais argamassas utilizadas na reabilitação de edifícios antigos, principalmente, as argamassas utilizadas no decorrer das obras ao longo do estágio, com o objetivo de comparar as suas caraterísticas, sendo estas argamassas tradicionais e pré-fabricadas. Foram feitos vários ensaios para determinar as suas resistências mecânicas, nomeadamente, o ensaio de resistência à flexão e compressão em diferentes idades após a confeção das argamassas, e ensaios para determinar a sua durabilidade como o ensaio de absorção da água por capilaridade; ensaio de absorção de água por imersão às 48horas (pressão atmosférica); ensaio para determinação do teor de água às 48horas e o ensaio de arrancamento (pull-off). A análise dos resultados mostrou que as argamassas adquirem mais resistência com o passar do tempo após a sua confeção, e que as argamassas dos provetes obtidos de forma tradicional, constituídos por argamassa de cal Hidráulica (HL5) e argamassa de cimento, apresentam melhores resultados do que a argamassa pré-fabricada (weber.cal classic).

Neste trabalho objetivou-se estudar o desempenho e a eficiência biológica de 48 bubalinos (16 Murrah - MUR, 16 Jafarabadi - JAF e 16 Mediterrâneo - MED) com média de 18 meses de idade e de peso vivo inicial de 330 kg terminados em confinamento. Quatro animais de cada grupo genético foram designados por sorteio para o abate inicial e serviram de referência para o estudo dos pesos iniciais de corpo vazio e de carcaça. Os 12 animais restantes de cada grupo genético foram divididos aleatoriamente em três subgrupos de quatro animais e submetidos aos seguintes tratamentos: Maturidade 1 (400 kg PV ao abate); Maturidade 2 (450 kg PV ao abate); Maturidade 3 (500 kg PV ao abate). Foi fornecida uma ração única, ad libitum, para todos os animais, composta por 50% de feno de coastcross na MS e 50% de concentrado à base de fubá de milho, uréia e farelo de soja, devidamente suplementado com minerais. Após os abates pré-fixados, determinou-se o peso corporal vazio (PCVZ) dos animais, por meio do somatório das partes integrantes do corpo. Os consumos médios diários de MS e MO não diferiram entre grupos genéticos, embora animais JAF tenham apresentado os maiores valores numéricos. Animais MUR, JAF e MED não diferiram quanto aos ganhos de peso corporal vazio e de carcaça. Não houve diferenças quanto à eficiência biológica (ganho de peso corporal vazio e ganho de carcaça por unidade de energia metabolizável ingerida) entre os grupos genéticos, embora animais Murrah tenham apresentado os maiores valores. Bubalinos abatidos aos 400 e 450 kg apresentaram melhor eficiência de ganho de peso corporal vazio e ganho de carcaça que os abatidos aos 500 kg.

Esta dissertação desenvolve uma plataforma de controlo interactiva para edifícios inteligentes através de um sistema SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition). Este sistema SCADA integra diferentes tipos de informações provenientes das várias tecnologias presentes em edifícios modernos (controlo da ventilação, temperatura, iluminação, etc.). A estratégia de controlo desenvolvida implementa um controlador em cascada hierárquica onde os "loops" interiores são executados pelos PLC's locais (Programmable Logic Controller), e o "loop" exterior é gerido pelo sistema SCADA centralizado, que interage com a rede local de PLC's. Nesta dissertação é implementado um controlador preditivo na plataforma SCADA centralizada. São apresentados testes efectuados para o controlo da temperatura e luminosidade de salas com uma grande área. O controlador preditivo desenvolvido tenta optimizar a satisfação dos utilizadores, com base nas preferências introduzidas em várias interfaces distribuídas, sujeito às restrições de minimização do desperdício de energia. De forma a executar o controlador preditivo na plataforma SCADA foi desenvolvido um canal de comunicação para permitir a comunicação entre a aplicação SCADA e a aplicação MATLAB, onde o controlador preditivo é executado. ABSTRACT: This dissertation develops an operational control platform for intelligent buildings using a SCADA system (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition). This SCADA system integrates different types of information coming from the several technologies present in modem buildings (control of ventilation, temperature, illumination, etc.). The developed control strategy implements a hierarchical cascade controller where inner loops are performed by local PLCs (Programmable Logic Controller), and the outer loop is managed by the centralized SCADA system, which interacts with the entire local PLC network. ln this dissertation a Predictive Controller is implemented at the centralized SCADA platform. Tests applied to the control of temperature and luminosity in huge­area rooms are presented. The developed Predictive Controller tries to optimize the satisfaction of user explicit preferences coming from several distributed user-interfaces, subjected to the constraints of energy waste minimization. ln order to run the Predictive Controller at the SCADA platform a communication channel was developed to allow communication between the SCADA application and the MATLAB application where the Predictive Controller runs.

Verifica-se um crescimento no interesse do uso de materiais de construção amigos do ambiente, tais como o betão de cânhamo, devido à necessidade de minimizar o impacto ambiental do sector da construção nas mudanças climáticas. O betão de cânhamo possui reduzida energia incorporada durante o processo de fabrico devido à sua composição: elevado teor de fibras de cânhamo, um ligante e água que formam uma pasta que aglutina as fibras. Este material de construção pode ser utilizado em elementos de alvenaria leves ou, geralmente, em placas de revestimento e isolamento. É muito higroscópico, podendo trazer vantagens a nível de economia energética, bem como da saúde e conforto térmico dos habitantes do espaço onde é aplicado. Apresenta-se um estudo experimental que teve como objetivo comparar a higroscopicidade de três tipos de betões de cânhamo e a correspondente capacidade de contribuírem para a regulação da humidade relativa (HR) no interior dos edifícios. Os betões diferem fundamentalmente no tipo de ligante utilizado nas suas formulações: cal aérea (PF70), cal hidráulica (Calco) e um ligante não identificado produzido pelo Grupo Parex (NL). Pretendeu-se ainda avaliar a contribuição da espessura de material nessa função de regulação passiva da HR. Provetes com distintas espessuras dos três betões foram sujeitos ao ensaio de determinação do Moiture Buffering Value (MBV), com ciclos diários de variação de HR: 8h a 75% de HR e 16h a 33% de HR em condições isotérmicas (23°C). Registou-se um bom MBV e não foi detetada uma diferença significativa na capacidade higroscópica dos diferentes betões, formulados com os distintos ligantes. A análise dos resultados, feita com o auxílio de modelos teóricos, permitiu destacar que a espessura envolvida na regulação da HR se mantém, na generalidade, limitada a 5cm em todas as formulações em estudo. Contudo, algumas irregularidades da superfície podem ter um forte impacto sobre a espessura ativa.

The Triennial Evaluation of Coordination for the Improvement of Higher Education Personnel (CAPES) is made according to several indicators, divided into several issues and items, and their weights. In these it is evident the importance of scientific periodicals. This study aims to evaluate the relative efficiency of post-graduate students in Business Administration, Accounting and tourism evaluated by CAPES in Brazil. The methodology used the data envelopment analysis - DEA (Data Envelopment Analysis). The data were obtained from the site and organized by the CAPES Qualis score. The analysis was performed by the DEA variable returns to scale, product-oriented (BCC-O), with data from the three-year periods 2004-2006 and 2007-2009. Among the main results are the average increase significantly the relative efficiency of the programs in the period 2007-2009 compared to 2004-2006 period, the highest average efficiency of programs linked to public institutions in relation to private, doctoral programs with the present average efficiency sharply higher than those only with masters, and senior programs in general were more efficient. There is also moderate and significant correlation between the efficiency scores and concepts CAPES. The Malmquist index analysis showed that more than 85% of programs had increased productivity. It is noteworthy that the main effect that influences the increase of the Malmquist index is the displacement of the border (Frontier-shift)

This research aims to investigate the Hedge Efficiency and Optimal Hedge Ratio for the future market of cattle, coffee, ethanol, corn and soybean. This paper uses the Optimal Hedge Ratio and Hedge Effectiveness through multivariate GARCH models with error correction, attempting to the possible phenomenon of Optimal Hedge Ratio differential during the crop and intercrop period. The Optimal Hedge Ratio must be bigger in the intercrop period due to the uncertainty related to a possible supply shock (LAZZARINI, 2010). Among the future contracts studied in this research, the coffee, ethanol and soybean contracts were not object of this phenomenon investigation, yet. Furthermore, the corn and ethanol contracts were not object of researches which deal with Dynamic Hedging Strategy. This paper distinguishes itself for including the GARCH model with error correction, which it was never considered when the possible Optimal Hedge Ratio differential during the crop and intercrop period were investigated. The commodities quotation were used as future price in the market future of BM&FBOVESPA and as spot market, the CEPEA index, in the period from May 2010 to June 2013 to cattle, coffee, ethanol and corn, and to August 2012 to soybean, with daily frequency. Similar results were achieved for all the commodities. There is a long term relationship among the spot market and future market, bicausality and the spot market and future market of cattle, coffee, ethanol and corn, and unicausality of the future price of soybean on spot price. The Optimal Hedge Ratio was estimated from three different strategies: linear regression by MQO, BEKK-GARCH diagonal model, and BEKK-GARCH diagonal with intercrop dummy. The MQO regression model, pointed out the Hedge inefficiency, taking into consideration that the Optimal Hedge presented was too low. The second model represents the strategy of dynamic hedge, which collected time variations in the Optimal Hedge. The last Hedge strategy did not detect Optimal Hedge Ratio differential between the crop and intercrop period, therefore, unlikely what they expected, the investor do not need increase his/her investment in the future market during the intercrop

Building design is an effective way to achieve HVAC energy consumption reduction. However, this potentiality is often neglected by architects due to the lack of references to support design decisions. This works intends to propose architectural design guidelines for energy efficiency and thermal performance of Campus/UFRN buildings. These guidelines are based on computer simulations results using the software DesignBuilder. The definition of simulation models has begun with envelope variables, partially done after a field study of thirteen buildings at UFRN/Campus. This field study indicated some basic envelope patterns that were applied in simulation models. Occupation variables were identified with temperature and energy consumption monitoring procedures and a verification of illumination and equipment power, both developed at the Campus/UFRN administration building. Three simulation models were proposed according to different design phases and decisions. The first model represents early design decisions, simulating the combination of different types of geometry with three levels of envelope thermal performance. The second model, still as a part of early design phase, analyses thermal changes between circulation halls lateral and central and office rooms, as well as the heat fluxes and monthly temperatures in each circulation hall. The third model analyses the influence of middle-design and detail design decisions on energy consumption and thermal performance. In this model, different solutions of roofs, shading devices, walls and external colors were simulated. The results of all simulation models suggest a high influence of thermal loads due to the incidence of solar radiation on windows and surfaces, which highlights the importance of window shading devices, office room orientation and absorptance of roof and walls surfaces

This research consists in studying the influence of the various type of construction systems of roofs with their energy efficiency as well as on the cost benefit for the commercial buildings on the temperatures condition of the city of Natal/RN. The main goal of this research is to analyze the cost benefit of the construction systems of roofs available on the market, taking into consideration the energy efficiency of the commercial buildings artificially air conditioned in order to be used by the projectors and to be adequated to the temperatures condition of the city of Natal/RN. The method of valuation of the cost benefit of roof systems consists in six steps: Features and simulation of the reference building; Analyze of sensitivity; Analyzes, features and simulation of alternatives of roof construction systems; Analyze of the cost of implementation; Analyze of the benefits of the alternatives comparing to the base case; And finally the analyze of the cost benefit. The model type chosen as reference was stores with pre molded buildings and system of roof with fiber ciment and ceiling . The thermal results showed the influence of the roof system on the energy efficiency of the building. The Final results of the simulations of the alternatives comes to a conclusion that the absortance is the variable that presents the best cost benefit relation and the reduction on the thermal transmittance still has limitations because of the high cost
