    For the Gospel of Mathew, Jesus Christ fulfils what is announced by the Scriptures, even in the minor details. Therefore, the text might be seen as a landmine for those who know the Old Testament. Indeed, the entire New Testament offers a re-reading of the Old Testament. However, Mathew is more systematic and scientific. For instance, he constantly establishes a dialogue between the Old and the New Testament like in the counterpoint of classical music. The author of the first gospel follows a precise plan in the composition of his text, as it frequently happens in different novels of the universal literature, in our case, in the writings of Gabriel García Márquez.Para el evangelio de Mateo, Jesucristo ha cumplido las Escrituras hasta en los más mínimos detalles. Por lo tanto, el texto es una mina para quien conoceel AT. En verdad todo el NT ofrece una relectura del Antiguo. Sin embargo, Mateo es más sistemático y más científico. Por ejemplo, el hace dialogar sin cesar el Antiguo con el Nuevo Testamento, como en el contrapunto de la música antigua. El autor del primer evangelio sigue un plan preciso en la composiciónde su evangelio, como ocurre con frecuencia en múltiples novelas de la literatura universal, en este caso, con escritos de Gabriel García Márquez. Para o evangelho de Mateus, Jesus Cristo cumpriu as Escrituras até nos mínimos detalhes.

    Relationship between transportation and people can also be seen when transportation is affected by major changes in society, such as the COVID-19 pandemic. Kupang City found its first case on April 9, 2020, the government has also implemented social restrictions during the pandemic. Therefore measuring traffic performance is very important for government agencies managing traffic and individuals planning trips, especially when special events occur. The purpose of this study was to obtain a model of changes in traffic movement in Kupang City. The results showed that the social restrictions imposed by the Kupang city government only had an impact on roads with educational facilities, while for others there were no significant changes. Meanwhile, for 2022, which is an endemic period or after the COVID-19 pandemic is over, traffic flows on all roads tend to increase and even exceed traffic flows in 2019 which was the period before the pandemic occurre

    How Engineers Can Care from a Distance: Promoting Moral Sensitivity in Engineering Ethics Education

    No full text
    Moral (or ethical) sensitivity is widely viewed as a foundational learning goal in engineering ethics education. We have argued in this paper is that this view of moral sensitivity cannot be readily transported from the nursing context to the engineering context on the basis of a care-analogy. The particularized care characteristic of the nursing context is decisively different from the generalized and universalized forms of care characteristic of the engineering context. Through a focus on care and maintenance, the engineering student’s moral sensitivity can be refined, opening up a perceptual awakening and affectivity towards the complex nature of the engineer’s Other. This awakening is in part promoted through an understanding of the ideology of neutrality as a moment in the history engineering. Becoming aware of this ideology as an ideology can then be seen as an activity of dividing loyalties that allows for a reflexive and critical view of the biases and presuppositions inherited within the world of engineering. This process of deepening the engineering student’s moral sensitivity is perhaps as much a process of the student becoming aware of her professional world, how it shapes her understanding of herself, and what it means to be a good engineer.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Ethics & Philosophy of TechnologyValues Technology and Innovatio

    Modeling Airport Congestion Contagion by SIS Epidemic Spreading on Airline Networks

    No full text
    We model airport congestion contagion as an SIS spreading process on an airport transportation network to explain airport vulnerability. The vulnerability of each airport is derived from the US Airport Network data as its congestion probability. We construct three types of airline networks to capture diverse features such as the frequency and duration of flights. The weight of each link augments its infection rate in SIS spreading process. The nodal infection probability in the meta-stable state is used as estimate the vulnerability of the corresponding airport. We illustrate that our model could reasonably capture the distribution of nodal vulnerability and rank airports in vulnerability evidently better than the random ranking, but not significantly better than using nodal network properties. Such congestion contagion model not only allows the identification of vulnerable airports but also opens the possibility to reduce global congestion via congestion reduction in few airports.Accepted author manuscriptMultimedia Computin

    Suppressing Information Diffusion via Link Blocking in Temporal Networks

    No full text
    In this paper, we explore how to effectively suppress the diffusion of (mis)information via blocking/removing the temporal contacts between selected node pairs. Information diffusion can be modelled as, e.g., an SI (Susceptible-Infected) spreading process, on a temporal social network: an infected (information possessing) node spreads the information to a susceptible node whenever a contact happens between the two nodes. Specifically, the link (node pair) blocking intervention is introduced for a given period and for a given number of links, limited by the intervention cost. We address the question: which links should be blocked in order to minimize the average prevalence over time? We propose a class of link properties (centrality metrics) based on the information diffusion backbone [19], which characterizes the contacts that actually appear in diffusion trajectories. Centrality metrics of the integrated static network have also been considered. For each centrality metric, links with the highest values are blocked for the given period. Empirical results on eight temporal network datasets show that the diffusion backbone based centrality methods outperform the other metrics whereas the betweenness of the static network, performs reasonably well especially when the prevalence grows slowly over time.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Multimedia ComputingIntelligent System

    Seroprevalence study of brucellosis in wild boar hunted for private consumption in northeast Portugal

    Get PDF
    Brucellosis is an important infectious disease caused by bacteria of the genus Brucella. In the northeast region of Portugal, infection with Brucella melitensis is endemic in small ruminants, and there are also humans’ cases. However, the epidemiological role of the wild boar in the dynamics of this disease in this region is unknown. In this study, a total of 332 blood samples were collected from wild boar hunted in thirty-six hunting areas during the 2022/2023 hunting season. All were taken by the hunters for private consumption, with no evisceration or examination in the field. Serum samples were tested by indirect ELISA (i-ELISA). It was observed that 88 wild boars were exposed to Brucella spp., pointing to a seroprevalence of 26.5% (95% CI: 21.8 – 31.3%). This high prevalence underlines the importance that wild boar may have in the dynamics of this disease in the region and its potential transmission to other animals, and to humans (for example, during the handling of carcasses). Increased awareness and knowledge of brucellosis in wild boar is essential for the implementation of effective practices and habits and, consequently, for the control and prevention of this important zoonosis. © 2024, The Author(s).This work was supported by the projects UIDP/CVT/00772/2020 and LA/P/0059/2020 funded by the Portuguese Foundation for Science and Technology (FCT).

    A negligência e a preguiça dos naturais no governo do Morgado de Mateus – aspectos discursivos e ideológicos veiculados em um ofício ascendente

    Get PDF
    This paper analyzes the discourse about the ways of life and the habits of the inhabitants of the São Paulo captaincy. The author was Morgado of Mateus, governor and captain general of that captaincy. The official letter, in which the discourse is written, was sent to his bosses in Portugal. The appraisal expressions show the semantic aspects of the discourse that reveal ideological and inter-subjective standards of the eighteenth century. Based on the philological edition of the handwritten text, the discursive analysis is supported by theoretical and methodological view of the Appraisal System Theory, a theory by Martin and White (2005). This analysis shows, therefore, the semantic level of an administrative and apparently formulaic official letter, but that expressly addresses the negligence and the laziness of the inhabitants of São Paulo captaincy.Este artigo analisa o discurso formulado pelo Morgado de Mateus, governador e capitão-general da capitania de São Paulo, sobre os modos de vida e costumes dos habitantes de sua área de governo. Tal discurso, contido em um ofício enviado a seus superiores em Portugal, contém marcas de cunho avaliativo, a partir das quais se vislumbram aspectos semânticos que revelam padrões ideológicos e intersubjetivos próprios do período setecentista. Com base no tratamento filológico de edição textual, realiza-se a análise discursiva a partir do viés teórico e metodológico da Teoria da Avaliatividade formulada por Martin e White (2005). Revela-se, desse modo, a esfera semântica de um texto administrativo aparentemente protocolar, mas que retrata de forma bastante expressiva a negligência e a preguiça dos habitantes da capitania de São Paulo
