This paper presents a comprehensive study to find the most efficient bitrate requirement to deliver mobile video that optimizes bandwidth, while at the same time maintains good user viewing experience. In the study, forty participants were asked to choose the lowest quality video that would still provide for a comfortable and long-term viewing experience, knowing that higher video quality is more expensive and bandwidth intensive. This paper proposes the lowest pleasing bitrates and corresponding encoding parameters for five different content types: cartoon, movie, music, news and sports. It also explores how the lowest pleasing quality is influenced by content type, image resolution, bitrate, and user gender, prior viewing experience, and preference. In addition, it analyzes the trajectory of users’ progression while selecting the lowest pleasing quality. The findings reveal that the lowest bitrate requirement for a pleasing viewing experience is much higher than that of the lowest acceptable quality. Users’ criteria for the lowest pleasing video quality are related to the video’s content features, as well as its usage purpose and the user’s personal preferences. These findings can provide video providers guidance on what quality they should offer to please mobile users.

A partir del 2010, el sector cementero en Colombia experimentó un crecimiento en sus ventas que lo ha posicionado como uno de los sectores más rentable en el país. Esta oportunidad de crecimiento ha permitido que Cementos Argos de Colombia se convirtiera en la empresa líder del sector. Expandiéndose así a mercados internacionales teniendo presencia en países de Centroamérica y Estados Unidos. Por lo tanto es necesario indagar las implicaciones que han tenido los cambios en el sector en las finanzas de la empresa. Para tal fin, se realiza el presente trabajo, que busca determinar de qué manera Cementos Argos de Colombia usa sus recursos para ser una de las empresas del sector mejor posicionada a pesar del crecimiento del mismo y la fuerte competencia que existente. Para esto, se estableció el análisis financiero de Cementos Argos de Colombia, diferentes herramientas e indicadores financieros que ayudaron a identificar, analizar, describir y evaluar los aspectos claves que garantizan el éxito de la empresa.

Fruit size and quality are major problems in early-season stonefruit cultivars grown in Australia and South-East Asia. In Australia, Thailand and Vietnam, new training and trellising systems are being developed to improve yield and fruit quality. Australian trials found that new training systems, such as the Open Tatura system, are more productive compared with standard vase-trained trees. We established new crop-loading indices for low-chill stonefruit to provide a guide for optimum fruit thinning based on fruit number per canopy surface and butt cross sectional area. Best management practices were developed for low-chill stonefruit cultivation using growth retardants, optimizing leaf nitrogen concentrations and controlling rates and timing of irrigation. Regulated deficit irrigation (RDI) improved fruit sugar concentrations by restricting water application during stage II of fruit growth. New pest and disease control measures are also being developed using a new generation of fruit fly baits. Soft insecticides such as (Spinosad) are used at significantly lower concentrations and have lower mammalian toxicity than the organophosphates currently registered in Australia. In addition, fruit fly exclusion netting effectively eliminated fruit fly and many other insect pests from the orchard with no increase in diseases. This netting system increased sugar concentrations of peach and nectarine by as much as 30%. Economic analyses showed that the break-even point can be reduced from 12 to 6 years Open Tatura trellising and exclusion netting.

Proponer matrimonio no es cualquier cosa, por lo cual la manera en la que se entrega el anillo es un momento que nunca se olvida y tiene que ser perfecto. Es a partir de esto que en los últimos años, se ha venido fortaleciendo una tendencia en la que las propuestas de matrimonio se han tornado mucho más creativas, llamativas y ostentosas, por lo cual cada vez más personas buscan de una manera creativa proponer matrimonio a su pareja, sin embargo aunque esta tendencia está en auge en otros países, en Colombia la gente no se esfuerza para proponer matrimonio de una forma creativa Say Yes es una empresa del sector de servicios ubicada en Bogotá que se encarga de crear, desarrollar y planear las propuestas de matrimonio soñadas para las parejas. La empresa nace de la idea de 3 jóvenes emprendedores que lo que se quieren lograr con este proyecto es brindarle a la comunidad una forma fácil y segura de planear y desarrollar su propuesta de matrimonio, creando y uniéndose a las tendencias mundiales que hay hoy en día, ayudando a elaborar, planear y tener éxito en la propuesta de matrimonio soñada para la pareja. Para la conformación de la compañía se debe hacer una inversión de alrededor de 28 millones, la cual se espera recuperar en un plazo de cuatro años con una tasa de interna retorno del 5,37% y en adelante generar ganancias, adicionalmente se espera lograr alcanzar el punto de equilibrio para finales del segundo año de funcionamiento.

We study the Schwinger model at finite temperature and show that a temperature dependent chiral anomaly may arise from the long distance behavior of the electric field. At high temperature this anomaly depends linearly on the temperature T and is present not only in the two point function, but also in all even point amplitudes. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.

The study assessed the economic efficiency of the pacu with the piacu cultivation in fishponds hollowed in the Middle Paranapanema region, State of São Paulo, 2007/08 crop. It was used the structures of the effective operational cost (EOC) and total operational cost (TOC) and five profitability indicators economic. The TOC per cycle ha(-1) were US$ 12,182.90. The production cost of the pacu and of the piaucu it was US$ 1.20 kg(-1) and US$ 1.40 kg(-1), respectively. The gross income were US$ 17,077.30 ha(-1), operational profit US$ 4,894.30 ha(-1), gross margins 43.8% and profitability rate 30.3%. The break even point 6,125.40 kg ha(-1) for the pacu and 805.90 kg ha(-1) for the piaucu. The viable minimum module corresponded to 0,5 ha of mirror of water. Considering that in the Medium Paranapanema region the medium area of mirror of water for producer is of 0,6 ha, it was ended that this policulture is an alternative of income for enterprising rural regional.

Neste trabalho iremos estudar os efeitos do potencial químico em (1 + 1) dimensões em modelos de teoria de campos a temperatura finita. Em particular, consideraremos férmions não massivos em um campo de fundo de calibre abeliano e calcularemos a ação efetiva por meio da função de n-pontos. Escreveremos a estrutura das amplitudes correspondentes e generalizaremos cálculos já existentes na literatura sem o potencial químico. Mostraremos através dos cálculos que a anomalia quiral não e afetada pela presença do potencial químico a temperatura finita. Entretanto, na ausência desse potencial as funções ímpares são nulas. Já na presença dele a temperatura finita, a função tem contribuições pares e ímpares. Mostraremos que a origem da estrutura das amplitudes e melhor vista a partir da formulação alternativa da teoria em termos dos espinores left- e right-handed. Os cálculos são também mais simples nessa formalação e alguns aspectos da teoria ficam mais claros.
