Dominance hierarchy in different stages of development in colonies of the primitively eusocial wasp Mischocyttarus cerberus styx (Hymenoptera, Vespidae)

In primitively eusocial insect societies, reproductive division of labor is established by dominance-submission interactions which determine a linear dominance hierarchy. As previously observed for other species, in Mischocyttarus cerberus styx (Hymenoptera, Vespidae), the dominant female is the main egg layer. Most of her attacks were to the females directly beneath in the rank establishing a hierarchy. During the pre-emergence stage, the hierarchy was already defined and in the post-emergence stage, pre-male substage, the frequency of dominance interactions were strong but the hierarchy was still maintained by the first-ranked female. In the decline stage there were many neutral individuals which could be the reproductives of a new colony.

Evaluating interaction with websites: Case study of a government website of the Brazilian Ministry of labor and employment

This paper presents a usability evaluation of the MTE (Ministry of Labor e Employment) website in order to measure the effectiveness, efficiency and user satisfaction regarding the website. The participants were 12 users (07 users were female and 05 male). The results indicate that although the education level of all participants and computing experience, many of them have had difficulty in finding information and do not recommend the site. © 2013 Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg.

El proyecto para el desarrollo de las capacidades de los paises en el area de documentacion en poblacion constituye la segunda fase de las actividades del DOCPAL (1978-1980) y tiene como objetivos centrales: a).ayudar a las instituciones comprometidas en actividades de poblacion, en alrededor de 4 paises anualmente, a mejorar sus capacidades e infraestructura; b).posibilitar a aquellos paises mejor dotados para que se constituyan en centros miembros de DOCPAL; c).mejorar, extender y continuar la entrega de servicios de nivel regional a los paises; d).mejorar y mantener los sistemas computarizados de procesamiento de la informacion. La descripcion detallada de estas actividades constituye el fundamento para la solicitud de fondos al IDRC durante el periodo senalado
