Enseñanza de la escritura de Max Aub: comprensión y memoria
No full textEste texto analiza a obra testimonial de Max Aub sobre su experiencia en los campos de concentración en Francia desde una perspectiva de discursos comparados. Para destacar las estrategias de la escritura del autor recuperables por otros proyectos discursivos que persigan la sensibilización y la denuncia a través del cruce entre la comunicación y la éticaThis text analyses the testimonial work of Max Aub about his experience in the French concentration camps in France from comparative discourses approach. It emphasizes the writing strategies used by the author useful for other awareness and denounce discourses through the dialogue among communication and ethic

A Transfer Report on the Development of a Framework to Evaluate Search Interfaces for their Support of Different User Types and Search Tactics
No full textAs the understanding of search systems, user needs and seeking strategies is developing, the design of search user interfaces is evolving to support more complicated and exploratory forms of search. With the design of new search features that enable these richer modes of exploration, comes the need to better understand the support they provide. In this report a new evaluation framework is presented that analyses search features for how they a) contribute to an overall interface, b) allow users to carry out different search tactics, and c) support different types of users and their needs. The novel contributions of the framework improve on some of the limitations of typical user studies, and allow search systems to be systematically analysed in much more detail and in much less time. The presented evaluation framework is then validated in three ways. First the validity of the models used as the building blocks of the framework are investigated through related work. Second the method of integrating these building-block models is validated and strengthened by consensus of expert opinion. Third, the overall approach is validated by comparing its analyses to the results of previously carried out user studies. The validation process has shown both the value of the framework and identified areas of future work that should be addressed for the framework to be completed. This report concludes with the set of contributions that the framework makes, and why the remaining work will be challenging, but critical to the final design
More on Min-Max Allocation
No full textIn a preceding paper Jacobsen [Jacobsen, S. 1971. On marginal allocation in single constraint min-max problems. Management Sci. (July).] shows that marginal allocation solves a class of discrete, single constraint, min-max allocation problems. A dual approach, to this problem is presented, based on a generalization of Jacobsen's P condition, which should prove more efficient when many marginal improvement iterations would be required. A variant of sequential search by bisection is applied, possibly augmented by an accelerated marginal allocation scheme, in which finite convergence to an optimum solution is guaranteed.
The subzero microbiome: Microbial activity in frozen and thawing soils
No full textMost of the Earth's biosphere is characterized by low temperatures (<5 °C) and cold-adapted microorganisms are widespread. These psychrophiles have evolved a complex range of adaptations of all cellular constituents to counteract the potentially deleterious effects of low kinetic energy environments and the freezing of water. Microbial life continues into the subzero temperature range, and this activity contributes to carbon and nitrogen flux in and out of ecosystems, ultimately affecting global processes. Microbial responses to climate warming and in particular, thawing of frozen soils are not yet well understood although the threat of microbial contribution to positive feedback of carbon flux is substantial. To date, several studies have examined microbial community dynamics in frozen soils and permafrost due to changing environmental conditions, and some have undertaken the complicated task of characterizing microbial functional groups and how their activity changes with changing conditions, either in situ or by isolating and characterizing macromolecules. With increasing temperature and wetter conditions microbial activity of key microbes and subsequent efflux of greenhouse gases also increase. In this review, we aim to provide an overview of microbial activity in seasonally frozen soils and permafrost. With a more detailed understanding of the microbiological activities in these vulnerable soil ecosystems, we can begin to predict and model future expectations for carbon release and climate change.Peer reviewe
