Mathematical literacy in Portugal is very unsatisfactory in what concerns international standards. Even more disturbingly, the Azores archipelago ranks as one of the worst regions of Portugal in this respect. We reason that the popularisation of Mathematics through interactive exhibitions and activities can contribute actively to disseminate mathematical knowledge, increase awareness of the importance of Mathematics in today’s world and change its negative perception by the majority of the citizens. Although a significant investment has been undertaken by the local regional government in creating several science centres for the popularisation of Science, there is no centre for the popularisation of Mathematics. We present our first steps towards bringing Mathematics to unconventional settings by means of hands-on activities. We describe in some detail three activities. One activity has to do with applying trigonometry to measure distances in Astronomy, which can also be applied to Earth objects. Another activity concerns the presence of numerical patterns in the Azorean flora. The third activity explores geometrical patterns in the Azorean cultural heritage. It is our understanding that the implementation of these and other easy-to-follow and challenging activities will contribute to the awareness of the importance and beauty of Mathematics.

A investigação em curso visa compreender a influência da implementação de um conjunto de tarefas no desenvolvimento do conceito de ângulo em alunos do 5.º ano de escolaridade, procurando responder às seguintes questões: a) Que conceções revelam alunos do 5.º ano de escolaridade relativamente ao conceito de ângulo?; b) Que estratégias utilizam os alunos do 5.º ano de escolaridade na exploração das tarefas utilizadas?; e c) Que aspetos do conceito de ângulo são desenvolvidos pelos alunos através da realização das tarefas propostas? A presente comunicação incide na primeira questão do estudo. Optou-se por uma abordagem metodológica qualitativa de paradigma interpretativo com a modalidade de experiência de ensino. Selecionou-se quatro alunos para constituir o grupo-alvo. Procedeu-se à avaliação diagnóstica das conceções de ângulo dos quatro alunos através da realização, no 1.º Período do ano letivo de 2011/12, de entrevistas clínicas semiestruturadas individuais, gravadas em vídeo. Além das entrevistas, foram usadas, como técnicas de recolha de dados, a observação participante das aulas, videogravadas, bem como a análise de documentos. Para analisar os dados, foram elaboradas categorias analíticas. Os resultados relativos à avaliação diagnóstica evidenciam conceções erradas de ângulo e respetiva amplitude: (a) os ângulos são os lados de polígonos (1 aluna); (b) o comprimento dos segmentos representativos dos lados está relacionado com o tamanho dos ângulos (2 alunos); (c) o comprimento do arco marcando o ângulo está relacionado com o tamanho dos ângulos (3 alunos); (d) nos polígonos côncavos, sãoângulos apenas os de amplitude inferior a 1800 (3 alunos); (e) em figuras que não são polígonos, os ângulos são os espaços entre os segmentos de reta e as linhas curvas (1 aluno); (f) o ângulo é a área entre dois segmentos representativos dos lados (4 alunos); e (g) os ângulos retos são apenas os posicionados na posição usual horizontal/vertical (1 aluna).

In this paper, we discuss the mathematical aspects of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle within local fractional Fourier analysis. The Schrödinger equation and Heisenberg uncertainty principles are structured within local fractional operators.

Transdermal biotechnologies are an ever increasing field of interest, due to the medical and pharmaceutical applications that they underlie. There are several mathematical models at use that permit a more inclusive vision of pure experimental data and even allow practical extrapolation for new dermal diffusion methodologies. However, they grasp a complex variety of theories and assumptions that allocate their use for specific situations. Models based on Fick's First Law found better use in contexts where scaled particle theory Models would be extensive in time-span but the reciprocal is also true, as context of transdermal diffusion of particular active compounds changes. This article reviews extensively the various theoretical methodologies for studying dermic diffusion in the rate limiting dermic barrier, the stratum corneum, and systematizes its characteristics, their proper context of application, advantages and limitations, as well as future perspectives.

It is generally challenging to determine end-to-end delays of applications for maximizing the aggregate system utility subject to timing constraints. Many practical approaches suggest the use of intermediate deadline of tasks in order to control and upper-bound their end-to-end delays. This paper proposes a unified framework for different time-sensitive, global optimization problems, and solves them in a distributed manner using Lagrangian duality. The framework uses global viewpoints to assign intermediate deadlines, taking resource contention among tasks into consideration. For soft real-time tasks, the proposed framework effectively addresses the deadline assignment problem while maximizing the aggregate quality of service. For hard real-time tasks, we show that existing heuristic solutions to the deadline assignment problem can be incorporated into the proposed framework, enriching their mathematical interpretation.

Fieldbus communication networks aim to interconnect sensors, actuators and controllers within distributed computer-controlled systems. Therefore they constitute the foundation upon which real-time applications are to be implemented. A potential leap towards the use of fieldbus in such time-critical applications lies in the evaluation of its temporal behaviour. In the past few years several research works have been performed on a number of fieldbuses. However, these have mostly focused on the message passing mechanisms, without taking into account the communicating application tasks running in those distributed systems. The main contribution of this paper is to provide an approach for engineering real-time fieldbus systems where the schedulability analysis of the distributed system integrates both the characteristics of the application tasks and the characteristics of the message transactions performed by these tasks. In particular, we address the case of system where the Process-Pascal multitasking language is used to develop P-NET based distributed applications

Consider the problem of determining a task-toprocessor assignment for a given collection of implicit-deadline sporadic tasks upon a multiprocessor platform in which there are two distinct kinds of processors. We propose a polynomialtime approximation scheme (PTAS) for this problem. It offers the following guarantee: for a given task set and a given platform, if there exists a feasible task-to-processor assignment, then given an input parameter, ϵ, our PTAS succeeds, in polynomial time, in finding such a feasible task-to-processor assignment on a platform in which each processor is 1+3ϵ times faster. In the simulations, our PTAS outperforms the state-of-the-art PTAS [1] and also for the vast majority of task sets, it requires significantly smaller processor speedup than (its upper bound of) 1+3ϵ for successfully determining a feasible task-to-processor assignment.
