University patenting, licensing and technology transfer: how organizational context and available resources determine performance.
Get PDFThe paper assesses the performance of the technology licensing offices (TLO) and technology transfer offices (TTO) which have been active in Portuguese higher education institutions. Data stemming from a survey of these entities was analyzed in successive steps through factor analysis, cluster analysis and estimation of a model using the Partial-Least Squares methodology. It is shown that the institutional nature of each of the surveyed organizations implies different behaviours and outcomes. Further it has also became clear that the type of resources and activities in the surveyed organizations determine both their “primary outcome” (patent applications and technology transfer processes) and their “final outcome” (technology licensing contracts and technology-based spin-offs). The results of this paper might be particularly relevant for other similar economies as Portugal where high-tech and knowledge-intensive industries have not been dominant.technology transfer; university-industry relationships; university patenting; university spin-offs

Finding K shortest and dissimilar paths
Get PDFThe purpose of the (Formula presented.) dissimilar paths problem is to find a set of (Formula presented.) paths, between the same pair of nodes, which share few arcs. The problem has been addressed from an application point of view, and integer programming formulations have also been introduced recently. In the present work, it is assumed that each arc is assigned with a cost, and the goal is then to find (Formula presented.) dissimilar paths while simultaneously minimizing the total cost. Some of the previous formulations: one minimizing the number of repeated arcs, another one minimizing the number of arc repetitions, as well as modifications that bound the number of paths in which the arcs appear, are extended with a cost function. Properties of the resulting biobjective problems are studied and the (Formula presented.) -constraint method is adapted to solve them using a decreasing and an increasing strategy for updating (Formula presented.). These methods are tested for finding sets of 10 paths in random and grid instances to assess the efficiency of the (Formula presented.) -constraint methods and the performance of the formulations to calculate shortest and dissimilar paths. Results show that minimizing the number of arc repetitions produces efficient solutions with higher dissimilarities faster than minimizing the number of repeated arcs. The cost range of the solutions is similar in both approaches. Additionally, bounding the number of paths in which each arc appears improves the quality of the solutions as to the dissimilarity while worsening its cost
Modern factories. Januário Godinho and the coloured concrete of the hydroelectric central of Venda Nova
Get PDF[EN] Januário Godinho’s work, carried out in the late 1940s, introduces new perspectives in the reading of modernity in Portugal. The size, quantity and quality of production, helps to verify the ability of expression and commitment to international language without losing continuity with tradition arsenal and without hiding the confrontation between nature and artifice. The building of the hydroelectric plant of Venda Nova, far removed from large urban centers, is associated with a mature tradition in the use of reinforced concrete in Portugal and the ability of formal synthesis in the compositional elements of the design and construction of architecture. Technique, form, decorative elements and the invention of new landscapes are integrated and visible components in an exemplary architecture designed by Januário Godinho in 1947.[ES] La obra de Januário Godinho, realizada a finales de los años 40, introduce nuevas perspectivas de lectura de la modernidad en Portugal. La dimensión, cantidad y calidad de la producción, permite constatar la capacidad de expresión y adhesión al lenguaje internacional sen perder la continuidad con una tradición aresanal y sin ocultar el confrontamiento entre naturaleza y artificio.
El edificio de la central hidroeléctrica de Venda Nova, lejano de los grandes centros urbanos, se relaciona con una madura tradición del uso del hormigón armado en Portugal y con la capacidad de síntesis formal de los elementos compositivos del proyecto y de la construcción de la arquitectura. Técnica, forma, elementos decorativos e invención de nuevos paisajes son las componentes integradas y visibles de una arquitectura ejemplar proyectada por Januário Godinho en 1947.Cannatà, M. (2013).

Finding K dissimilar paths: Single-commodity and discretized flow formulations
Get PDFWhile finding a path between two nodes is the basis for several applications, the need for alternative paths also may have various motivations. For instance, it can be of interest to ensure reliability in a telecommunications network, to reduce the consequences of possible accidents in the transportation of hazardous materials or to decrease the risk of robberies in money distribution. All these applications involve the search for a set of paths that are as dissimilar as possible, with respect to the arcs in them. In this work, we present linear integer programming formulations that intend to find K dissimilar paths. The new models derive from a straightforward single-commodity flow formulation of the K paths problem, to which extra constraints are added to account for the concept of dissimilarity. In particular, in each formulation a different measure of the similarity between the K paths is minimized: the number of repeated arcs, the number of arc reuses and the number of pairwise arc overlaps. The third measure originates a non-linear model that is linearized through a discretized model reformulation technique. These formulations are complemented by a polynomial algorithm that allows to extract K loopless paths from the solutions output by each of them.The formulations are tested for random and grid networks with respect to the solutions' average and minimum dissimilarity and the run time. Two of them stand out in terms of both those measures, when compared to an iterative approach from the literature. The best one regarding the average dissimilarity finds 20 paths with average dissimilarity of 99.5% in about 168 s for random networks of 5 000 nodes and 100 000 arcs. The same approach finds 20 paths for grid instances of size 100 x 100 in less than 18 s. The other formulation requires about 11 s for the same random instances, with a 0.7% deviation from the best known average dissimilarity; while it requires less than 7 s to compute 20 paths in 100 x 100 grids with a 0.6% deviation to the optimal dissimilarity

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
Get PDFWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods
