Farmers’ preference for adoption of organic farming in Bihar
Authors: . Nidhi , Singh S. P.
Published: May 2017

Social scientists pursue sincere efforts to identify the preferential variables of cultivators responsible for adoption of modern cultivation practices. The present paper attempts to identify the important variables of preference towards organic farming. The farmers were categorized on the basis of land holdings and their preferences for adoption were recorded. Different constraints in adopting organic farming were treated as attitude statement and their agreement with these statements were recorded on 5-point Likert scale. Differences in agreement towards various constraints as well as differences in ranks of criteria for adopting organic farming across different groups of farmers were assessed using Kruskal Wallis ANOVA followed by Wilcoxon’s procedure to analyze pairwise differences .Factors like low yield, high labour requirement, unavailability of proper market were observed to play deterrent role in adoption. Some of the advantages associated with organic farming like less contamination of nutrients, environment friendly, value addition etc. were observed to be relatively less important motivating factors to adopt organic farming, specially by small and medium farmers which indicates that the profitability is of much higher concern for them to sustain organic farming as compared to its other environmental and health benefits.
Maize Production under Abiotic Stress Conditions: An Empirical Analysis
Authors: Kumar Amalendu , SIngh K. M.
Published: May 2017

Maize in Samastipur is grown during kharif season at 22% of cropped area, during Rabi season on less than 12% area, as sole crop and 26% as intercrop. However summer maize occupies only 6 percent of the cropped area in the region. The district frequently faces problems of abiotic stress due to flash floods and drought conditions. Keeping in view frequent abiotic stress faced by farmers, the present study was planned and data solicited from 120 farmers under different categories from six villages selected from Patori and Vidhyapatinagar blocks of, Samastipur district, Bihar. The study finds that farmers save Open Pollinated Variety (OPV) maize seeds for future use but buy hybrid seeds through input dealers. The estimated total cost of production per hectare in case of hybrid varieties during, Kharif, Rabi and Summer seasons worked out to be Rs 8689.46, Rs.20918.43 and Rs.16126.63 respectively. However, in case of OPVs it was lower at Rs 9956.57 in Kharif, Rs 6797.44 in Rabi and Rs 11907.87 in summer season. Use of human labour and chemical fertiliser had higher share in the cost structure across the seasons and varieties. So far as the disposal of produce was concerned, 64 to 72 % was sold at price ranging from Rs 789 to Rs 854 per quintal. The study found that adoption of OPVs was a strategy by farmers to counter the abiotic stress conditions, as it was more tolerant. The hybrid variety is mostly cultivated for selling in the market and not for home consumption. The study suggests that suitable varieties and technologies should be developed for abiotic stress situations so that area and productivity could increase in future. The increase in productivity will have a positive impact on food and nutrition security. Improvement in marketing support to the crop was essential to ensure so that income and remuneration will increase and finally uplift the socio- economic conditions in the study area.

KEBIJAKAN PENGEMBANGAN KONSEP SEA GATE INTERNATIONAL (SGI) GUNA MEWUJUDKAN KEMANDIRIAN MARITIM INDONESIA
Authors: Kumalasari Galuh Wahyu
Published: May 2017

The idea of the Indonesian Autonomy of maritime shows that Indonesia is not yet self-sufficient in the maritime sector. This simple statement is a major issue that must be resolved. Indonesia has ratified the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) through Act No. 17 of 1985, but there has been no significant progress to outperform the competition with countries in the world. The concept of Sea Gate International (SGI) to implement the development and improvement of both quantity and quality is the main port to adjust international standards should be a realistic and optimistic step in order to realize the independence of maritime in Indonesia. Foreign ships will be more and more anchored in Indonesia and will improve the optimization of human resource development, science and technology as well as product quality and service the maritime sector. Narrates deeper, the existence of Indonesia as SGI will be one important factor to improve the position of Indonesia in world geoeconomic and geopolitical map. Policy Planning seriously need to be realized in the long term development plan, making clear the direction and the benchmark every year running
Application of electronic total stations for survey of metal towers designs of cellular communications
Authors: Vinogradov A.V. , Pushchak O.N.
Published: May 2017

The availability and stability of cellular communication can be achieved with areas coverage by base stations. Base station cellular (metal tower) is a complex and massive engineering structure which is usually installed on different buildings. Weight of tower with equipment exceeds 1000 kg. For security purposes of objects with installed cellular base stations you need constantly determine the operating characteristics of towers. One of the important characteristics is the deviation of the tower from the vertical. In the regulations for the operation of towers various ways of determining the deviation of the tower from the vertical are discussed. In the instructions it is proposed to determine the deviation of the tower based on observations with three or four starting points, between which there must be mutual visibility. After all dimensions processing we will receive a deviation of the tower from the vertical. The paper proposes a more simple method of determining deviations of the tower from the vertical with the use of electronic total station. The software of the instrument will improve the quality of the work. Measurements are performed from one point in topocentric coordinates system. Independent observations from a different point improve accuracy and serve as a control. Error of the results does not exceed 5–7 mm.

Doença celíaca e introdução do glúten na dieta infantil: avaliação dos riscos e benefícios
Authors: Cavinatto José Nélio
Published: May 2017

Doença celíaca (DC) é uma doença sistêmica, imunomediada, provocada pela ingestão de glúten e que
ocorre em indivíduos geneticamente suscetíveis. O risco de indução de DC pela dieta infantil contendo
glúten, aplica-se exclusivamente a estes indivíduos, isto é, aqueles que apresentam pelo menos um
alelo de risco para essa doença. Como normalmente não se sabe se a criança se enquadra neste
critério, no momento da introdução das papinhas de cereais, as recomendações em relação aos riscos
e benefícios, decorrentes do modo de introdução de glúten se aplicam para todas elas.
Em 2008, o Committee on Nutrition of the European Society for Pediatric Gastroenterology, Hepatology
and Nutrition (ESPGHAN) recomendava evitar a introdução de glúten na dieta infantil, antes de 4 meses
e após 7 meses de idade, e introduzir glúten enquanto a criança estava sendo amamentada. Novas
evidências fizeram a ESPHIGAN revisar estas recomendações.
Embora o aleitamento materno deva ser estimulado devido a outros grandes benefícios, nem ao
aleitamento materno, nem a introdução de glúten durante a amamentação, parece diminuir o risco de DC
na infância. Glúten pode ser introduzido na dieta infantil entre 4 e 12 meses de idade. Dados de estudos
observacionais apontam a associação entre quantidade de glúten ingerida e risco de DC. Consumo de
grandes quantidades de glúten deve ser evitado nas primeiras semanas, após sua introdução na dieta,
bem como durante a infância. A quantidade ideal, entretanto, não está estabelecida.
Impacto do microbioma intestinal no Eixo Cérebro-Intestino
Authors: Zorzo Renato Augusto
Published: May 2017

Base teórica: O microbioma intestinal exerce influência vital não somente no funcionamento do Trato
Gastrointestinal, mas também na modulação do sistema imune, na sinalização intercelular neuro-endócrina
e na comunicação entre o Sistema Nervoso Entérico e o Sistema Nervoso Central, conjunto
conhecido como Eixo Cérebro-Intestino.
Metodologia: Através de levantamentos nas bases de dados PubMed, Scielo e Google Scholar, este
estudo teve por objetivo levantar o conhecimento científico atual acerca das relações entre o microbioma
intestinal e o funcionamento do Eixo Cérebro-Intestino.
Achados: O microbioma intestinal é estabelecido desde os primeiros dias de vida, e sofre influência
de vários fatores externos. Na primeira infância, uma relação de simbiose com o hospedeiro é estabelecida,
e a partir de então, o microbioma intestinal exerce intima influência na comunicação do
Eixo Cérebro-Intestino, e alterações no seu perfil estão implicadas na gênese de morbidades mentais,
como esquizofrenia, depressão, transtorno do espectro autista, além de resposta exacerbada ao
stress.
Conclusões: Estímulos na vida precoce exercem forte influência na formação do perfil do microbioma
intestinal, cujos desdobramentos se estendem por toda a vida do indivíduo. Alterações no perfil
do microbioma podem resultar em prejuízo no desenvolvimento em vários sistemas corporais, e em
especial no neurodesenvolvimento, aumentando risco de morbidades mentais na vida adulta.

Published: May 2017

A conferência de abertura do 49th Annual Meeting of The European Society for Paediatric Gastroenterology,
Hepatology and Nutrition (ESPGHAN 2016) foi ministrada pelo Professor George P. Chrousos. Ele
é um dos 250 mais proeminentes cientistas pesquisadores do mundo em sua área de atuação. O
Professor George P. Chrousos explanou sobre as mais variadas situações em que potenciais causas
de stress determinam condições inflamatórias. Os processos inflamatórios e as alterações da condição
nutricional estão relacionados a significantes modificações metabólicas. A subnutrição (caquexia) e
a obesidade estão relacionadas com a inflamação e consequente risco aumentado de alterações
imunológicas, infecção, Diabetes Mellitus tipo II, Síndrome Metabólica e doenças cardiovasculares. Os
biomarcadores tem potencial para diagnóstico, monitorização, estratificação e como prognóstico em
várias síndromes. O exemplo mais conhecido é a síndrome da resposta inflamatória sistêmica que pode
impactar na condição nutricional. Os biomarcadores podem avaliar as duas condições e vários deles
são frequentemente utilizados na prática clínica: albumina, proteína C-reativa, 25-hidroxivitamina D,
cálcio, magnésio, proteínas totais, transferrina, triglicérides e zinco. Novos estudos serão necessários
para estabelecer o valor dos biomarcadores quanto ao prognóstico (morbimortalidade).
On reduction of automata in labyrinths
Authors: Kilibarda Goran
Published: May 2017

It is shown that every automaton acceptable for rectangular labyrinths can be
reduced to an automaton that behaves according to either the left-hand rule
or the right-hand rule, or does not move at all, in every plane rectangular
labyrinth without leaves. This enables us to approach certain fundamental
problems of the theory of automata in labyrinths in a quite different way.
The cycle index of the automorphism group of Zn
Authors: Bozovic Vladimir , Kovijanic-Vukicevic Zana
Published: May 2017

We consider the group action of the automorphism group Un = Aut(Zn) on the
set Zn, that is the set of residue classes modulo n. Clearly, this group
action provides a representation of Un as a permutation group acting on n
points. One problem to be solved regarding this group action is to find its
cycle index. Once it is found, there appears a vast class of related
enumerative and computational problems with interesting applications. We
provide the cycle index of specified group action in two ways. One of them is
more abstract and hence compact, while another one is basically a procedure
of composing the cycle index from some building blocks. However, those
building blocks are also well explained and finally presented in a very
detailed fashion.

A d-hypercube of order n is an n x ... x nd (d times) array with nd
elements from a set Q of cardinality n. We recall several connections
between d-hypercubes of order n and d-ary operations of order n. We give
constructions of orthogonal d-ary operations that generalize a result of
Belyavskaya and Mullen. Our main result is a general construction of
d-orthogonal d-ary operations from d-ary quasigroups.
On weakly clean and weakly exchange rings having the strong property
Authors: Danchev Peter
Published: May 2017

We define two classes of rings calling them weakly clean rings and weakly
exchange rings both equipped with the strong property. Although the classes
of weakly clean rings and weakly exchange rings are different, their two
proper subclasses above do coincide. This extends results due to W. Chen
(Commun. Algebra, 2006) and Chin-Qua (Acta Math. Hungar., 2011). We also
completely characterize strongly invo-regular rings, thus somewhat extending
results due to Danchev-McGovern (J. Algebra, 2015). Some other principal
results concerning weakly clean and weakly exchange rings are discussed as
well.

On Matsumoto change of m-th root finsler metrics
Authors: Tayebi Akbar , Nia Shahbazi
Published: May 2017

We consider Matsumoto change of Finsler metrics. First, we find a condition
under which the Matsumoto change of a Finsler metric is projectively related
to it. Then, considering the subspace of m-th root Finsler metrics, if ?F is
the Matsumoto change of F, we prove that ?F is locally projectively flat if
and only if it is locally dually flat. In this case, F and ?F reduce to
locally Minkowskian metrics.

each nonnegative integer n ? N, denote by FPn(X) the subset of FP(X)
consisting of all words of reduced length at most n, and in by the natural
mapping from (X ? X?1 ? {e})n to FPn(X). We prove that the natural mapping
i2:(X ? X?1 d ?{e})2 ? FP2(X) is a closed mapping if and only if every

quasi-uniformity on X, where X is a T1-space and Xd denotes X when equipped
with the discrete topology in place of its given topology.

Cone-beam computed tomography evaluation on the condylar displacement following sagittal split ramus osteotomy in asymmetric setback patients: Comparison between conventional approach and surgery-first approach
Authors: Oh Min-Hee , Hwang Hyeon-Shik , Lee Kyung-Min , Cho Jin-Hyoung
Published: May 2017

Objective:

To compare the condylar displacement following sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) in asymmetric setback patients between the conventional approach and surgery-first approach and to determine whether the condylar displacement is affected by asymmetric setback in SSRO patients.

Materials and Methods:

This was a retrospective study. The subjects consisted of patients with facial asymmetry who underwent SSRO and had cone-beam computed tomography taken before and 1 month after surgery. They were allocated into the conventional (n = 18) and surgery-first (SF) groups (n = 20). Descriptive, independent t-tests and Pearson correlation analysis were computed.

Results:

The amount of condylar displacement in x-, y-, and z-directions and Euclidean distance showed no statistically significant differences between the conventional and SF groups. Comparing the postoperative condylar position with the preoperative position, the condylar displacement occurred in posterior (P < .05) and downward (P < .05) directions in both groups except on the deviated side in the conventional group. The condylar displacement occurred in a posterior (P < .05) direction on the deviated side of the conventional group. However, the condylar displacement in three dimensions showed no statistically significant differences between the two groups. In the correlation analysis, the condylar displacement in both the deviated and contralateral sides showed no significant correlation with asymmetric setback in either group.

Conclusion:

The condylar displacement in three dimensions and the distance of condylar displacement in SSRO patients with facial asymmetry showed no significant difference between conventional and SF groups. Condylar displacement was not associated with asymmetric setback.
Remote laser welding of zinc coated steels in a zero-gap lap joint configuration
Authors: Yang Shanglu , Tao Wu
Published: May 2017

Zinc coated steels have been increasingly used in the automotive industry due to their excellent corrosion resistance. However, the presence of zinc coating on the steel sheet poses significant challenges in the laser welding process. Zinc has a lower boiling point (906 °C) than the melting point of steel (>1300 °C). When zinc coated steels are laser welded in a zero-gap lap joint configuration, a highly pressurized zinc vapor is readily produced at the faying interface. Without special precaution, a large amount of spatter and blowholes can be produced, which can degrade the weld quality and mechanical performance of the welds. The state-of-the art approach to mitigate the negative impact of zinc vapor is to employ a series of dimples having an approximate height of 0.1–0.2 mm to provide a channel along the faying interface for the resulting zinc vapor to escape. In this study, an innovative remote laser welding process has been developed to directly weld zinc coated steels in a zero-gap lap joint configuration without the use of dimples. Experimental results show that high-integrity welds can be achieved with excellent mechanical performance. The new process can dramatically reduce the cycle time and manufacturing cost by eliminating the dimpling process.

Authors: Zhang Yongzhi , Liu Furong , Chen Jimin , Yuan Yanping
Published: May 2017

The corrosion behavior of 316L stainless steel parts manufactured via selective laser melting (SLM) was investigated in this study. In order to explain the relationship of corrosion resistance and surface quality, several examples were made by SLM with different processing parameters (including laser power and scanning speed) and potentiodynamic polarization curve were measured. The results indicated that surface quality varied with different processing parameters and good surface quality contributed high corrosion resistance. In addition, when the laser power was 100 W while scanning speed was 1050 mm/s, the products possess high surface quality and corrosion resistance with corrosion potential −198 mV, corrosion current 0.556 μA.

Improving nursing methods by using thermal imaging: Observations by CAT S60 mobile phone
Authors: Alametsä Jarmo , Oikarainen Markku , Viik Jari , Perttunen Jarmo
Published: May 2017

The purpose of this preliminary study was to examine, how thermal imaging could help in advancing nursing methods and offer some new usage targets of thermal imaging for the behoof of a patient. By using CAT S60 cellular phone with an inbuilt Flir thermal camera, thermal pictures were taken from voluntary subjects in order to find out if thermal imaging with CAT S60 phone could help in treatment of a patient. Thermal camera images were taken in order to find out temperature changes in whole body, limbs and extremities. By using thermal imaging in nursing the beginning of treatment could be hastened and the monitoring of the state of a patient would be more efficient thus improving the prognosis of a patient. The benefit of the method is, that it is non-invasive, cheap and easy to use (inside a cellular phone) thus being a clear advantage.

 The results of different usage methods seen in thermal images suggest that thermal imaging with CAT S60 phone could be used to improve nursing methods and may also for its part to help in diagnosis. The present preliminary observations via thermal images showed, that the resolution of CAT S60 phone was sufficient to detect changes in human body temperature in home life. This may suggest the usage of the CAT S60 phone in home care services.

Compared to patient satisfaction, less research has focused on patient experience, which is a complex phenomenon by nature, thereby challenging to define and measure. Today, healthcare organizations are short of appropriate instruments surveying patient experiences. Satisfaction questionnaires are used to evaluate the quality of hospital care from the viewpoint of adult patients. However, questions remain whether the hospitals should use these results to support their development activities. 

This article describes the development process of a patient experience survey instrument targeted for the parents of pediatric patients, introduces the first versions of the questionnaire, and the plan for further development. The development process included several phases: interviews with 17 families, identification of aspects which influence patient experiences (5 themes), description of related potential metrics (22 metrics), formulation of the first version of the questionnaire (67 statements) and pilot testing, data gathering at a pediatric outpatient clinic (106 respondents), and based on exploratory factor analysis development of the second version of the questionnaire (22 statements). The further development includes validation with a second round data gathering and statistical analysis. The aim is to condense the number of statements into about 10 and implement the survey in an electronic format.

In the Lapsus project similar patient experience questionnaires will be developed for all relevant phases of patients paths. The development work will utilize the reported process and the first version of the questionnaire. The plan is take the instruments in use in the New Children’s hospital in Helsinki and in other similar hospitals.
Design science research towards resilient cyber-physical eHealth systems
Authors: Rajamäki Jyri , Pirinen Rauno
Published: May 2017

Most eHealth systems are cyber-physical systems (CPSs) making safety-critical decisions based on information from other systems not known during development. In this design science research, a conceptual resilience governance framework for eHealth CPSs is built utilizing 1) cybersecurity initiatives, standards and frameworks, 2) science of design for software-intensive systems and 3) empowering cyber trust and resilience. According to our study, a resilient CPS consists of two sub-systems: the proper resilient system and the situational awareness system. In a system of CPSs, three networks are composed: platform, software and social network. The resilient platform network is the basis on which information sharing between stakeholders could be created via software layers. However, the trust inside social networks quantifies the pieces of information that will be shared - and with whom. From citizens’ point of view, eHealth is wholeness in which requirements of information security hold true. Present procedures emphasize confidentiality at the expense of integrity and availability, and regulations/instructions are used as an excuse not to change even vital information. The mental-picture of cybersecurity should turn from “threat, crime, attack” to “trust” and “resilience”. Creating confidence in safe digital future is truly needed in the integration of the digital and physical world’s leading to a new digital revolution. The precondition for the exchange of information “trust” must be systematically built at every CPS’ level. In health sector, increasingly interconnected social, technical and economic networks create large complex CPSs, and risk assessment of many individual components becomes cost and time prohibitive. When no-one can control all aspects of CPSs, protection-based risk management is not enough to help prepare for and prevent consequences of foreseeable events, but resilience must be built into systems to help them quickly recover and adapt when adverse events do occur.
Tones and traits - experiments of text-based extractions with cognitive services
Authors: Gain Ulla , Hotti Virpi
Published: May 2017

Cognitive services mimic brain mechanisms by the algorithms, for example, extracting emotions, language styles, and social tendencies from text. The cognitive services offer the inferred insights that are even more detailed than the observation-based ground-truth data. In this paper, the text-based extractions are utilized by the cognitive services (i.e., Microsoft’s Text Analytics and IBM’s AlchemyLanguage, Natural Language Understanding, Personality Insights and Tone Analyzer). The tones (i.e., emotions, language styles and social tendencies) and personality traits (i.e., social tendencies, needs and values) are extracted from a web-site document with no time by the cognitive services the algorithmic functionality of which are exemplified. Both the tones and personality traits are the inferred insights that can be used to assess the personality. Finally, 47 personality traits are tabulated to illustrate the trait-based questions that can be used in the interventions.

Kognitiivinen aikakausi lisää ihmisten aivokuntoa eli kognitiivista suorituskykyä sekä kognitiivisten palvelujen että niitä hyödyntävien sovellusten avulla. Kognitiivisten palvelujen kehittäminen kuuluu kognitiiviseen laskentaan, jossa pyritään algoritmien avulla matkimaan aivomekanismeja. Jotta aivomekanismeja opitaan matkimaan, on tunnettava kognitiiviset toiminnallisuudet. Tässä artikkelissa kognitiiviset palvelut (IBM:ltä neljä ja Microsoftilta seitsemän) kohdennetaan kognitiivisiin prosesseihin 14 kohdentamisäännön avulla. Koska kohdentaminen edellytti kognitiivisten palvelujen tuotosten yksityiskohtaista tarkastelua, niin myös tuotosten hyödyntämiseen muodostettiin kohdentamismalli.

In this paper, we describe an indoor positioning system designed to provide data on the movement patterns of hospital personnel. The data collection is ongoing and part of a larger study project, which aims to evaluate the impact of an information system implemented in a hospital setting. The indoor positioning system was designed to be non-intrusive and straightforward to deploy in multiple hospitals, while requiring minimal existing infrastructure. To this end, the system is based on battery-powered Bluetooth beacons, and mobile phones measuring the signal strength of the beacons to position their bearers. This paper describes the design and implementation of the system. We analyze the positioning accuracy of the system in order to evaluate its fitness for purpose. Based on the results, the system is suitable for short-term deployments due to its low cost and ease of installation.
SoTe-tieto ekosysteemissä: MORFEUS-näkymät asiakaslähtöisen yhteistyön ja palveluohjauksen työkaluina

Published: May 2017

Sote-uudistus haastaa alan toimijat julkisella, yksityisellä ja kolmannella sektorilla kehittämään yhteistyötään asiakkaan parhaaksi. Monitoimijaisessa verkostossa tarvitaan paitsi kokonaiskuvaa palveluekosysteemin toimijoista rooleineen myös saumatonta tiedonkulkua toimijoiden välillä. Kehitettävien tietojärjestelmien tulee olla yhteentoimivia, mutta myös erityisiä tarpeita omaavien asiakkaiden palvelutarpeet täytyy huomioida. Vuosina 2015–2017 toteutettavassa MORFEUS-hankkeessa on kehitetty ja testattu kansallista palveluväylää hyödyntävä näkymäprototyyppi, joka mahdollistaa tietojen koostamisen eri toimijoiden tietovarannoista kolmeen eri käyttäjänäkymään: asiakkaan, sote-ammattilaisen sekä päätöksentekijän. Näkymät mahdollistavat erityistä tukea ja erityisen runsaasti erilaisia sote-palveluita tarvitsevien ns. VIP-asiakkaiden palvelupaletin koostamisen ja palveluohjauksen. Käyttäjätestausten pohjalta voidaan todeta, että prototyypin idea toimii; se auttaa koostamaan tietoa eri lähteistä ja muodostamaan kokonaiskuvan asiakkaan tilanteesta sekä asiakkaalle itselleen että sote-ammattilaiselle, mistä on erityistä hyötyä palveluohjaajalle. Käyttäjätestauksen pohjalta voidaan todeta, että näkymäprototyypin jatkokehitystä täytyy tehdä vielä fokusoiden erityisesti testaukseen käyttäjäasiakkaiden kanssa, tiedon rakenteiseen kirjaamiseen ammattilaisten näkymässä sekä tiedon esittämiseen visuaalisessa muodossa kaikissa näkymissä. Erityisesti asiakkaan näkymässä visuaalisuudella tavoitellaan asiakkaan voimaantumista, motivoitumista sekä houkuttelevuutta ja ei-leimaavuutta.
UNIVERSIDAD Y GLOBALIZACIÓN EN COLOMBIA
Authors: Acevedo Tarazona Álvaro
Published: May 2017

La universidad colombiana ha sido enclave de formación ideológica estudiantil revolucionaria con el objetivo de transformar una sociedad considerada por distintas tendencias de izquierda muy injusta y muy desigual. Y en ese anhelo de transformación, algunas tendencias estudiantiles de la izquierda más radical han considerado viable la lucha armada para alcanzar la utopía revolucionaria. En este crisol de ideas y acciones de circulación planetaria desde los años sesenta del siglo pasado, es necesario abrir una puerta de reflexión para reconocer que la universidad también ha sido parte de este largo conflicto en Colombia que hoy se encuentra en la incertidumbre del punto final de la confrontación violenta o la continuidad. El proceso de paz en Colombia ha sido mediatizado ampliamente por las repercusiones que este tiene en conceptos tales como globalización, justicia, Estado, economía y sociedad.
VETORES DE DIREÇÕES OPOSTAS
Authors: Fonseca Vitória Azevedo da
Published: May 2017

Este trabalho  propõe uma análise diacrônica das diferentes gestões do sistema de ensino estadual de São Paulo, a partir de um levantamento de instrumentos normativos ao longo de 20 anos, de 1995 a 2015. Neste período, houve uma movimentação legal significativa, o que faz supor ser a área educacional valorizada ao longo desses anos. No entanto, também foi possível identificar que o discurso empresarial para a construção de uma estrutura mais eficiente não foi efetivado e, em diversos casos, as ações específicas dos diferentes secretários de educação acabavam por se anular por falta de direcionamento claro, indicando uma falta de projeto educacional de longo prazo, o que faz com que, depois de tantos anos de gestão a rede de ensino de São Paulo não se aproxima do pretendido e anunciado nos discursos políticos.
A FORMAÇÃO DE PROFESSORAS DA EDUCAÇÃO INFANTIL EM CONTEXTO NA UAC – UFSCAR
Authors: Moruzzi Andrea Braga , Rocha Maria José da Silva
Published: May 2017

Este artigo analisa a formação de professoras da educação infantil em contexto na Unidade de Atendimento a Criança da UFSCar a partir da sistematização da história registrada em seus arquivos e da realização de entrevistas e relatos de suas docentes. O escopo da análise é a discussão sobre as transformações na carreira das docentes contrabalanceando suas memórias, os arquivos e os efeitos e impactos das mudanças políticas. Observa-se que a formação das professoras é fortemente impactada pelas mudanças legislativas com diferentes exigências às suas profissionais nas últimas três décadas. A trajetória da formação das docentes em contexto, trazida à contra memória, traz inúmeras semelhanças com demais “creches universitárias” promovendo também uma visibilidade das questões que envolvem a consolidação de uma Unidade de Educação Infantil Universitária no âmbito do Ensino, da Pesquisa e da Extensão, aspectos estes exigidos pela Resolução No.1 de Março de 2011 do CNE/SEB atualmente vigente.

O presente artigo discute a atuação do governo federal para a viabilização do direito à Educação Infantil (EI), a partir do de regime de colaboração. Resultado de pesquisa bibliográfica e documental, apresenta ações e programas do governo federal para a EI, sob responsabilidade do Ministério da Educação, no Plano Plurianual 2012-2015. Tal análise indica 3 modalidades de atuação desse ente federado: 1) Ações e programas destinados à EI; 2) Ações e programas que contemplam a EI por serem direcionados à Educação Básica e 3) Consultorias: mediante contratação e pagamento a técnicos e organismos internacionais. Ainda que o governo federal seja responsável pela coordenação de ações e programas para consolidação de uma política nacional de EI, destaca-se que esta vem apresentando descontinuidade e rupturas, inviabilizando a promoção efetiva do direito de todas as crianças pequenas à educação, à infância e à cidadania.

Revelamos además, los estudios para la búsqueda de vías que permitieran  preparar para la escuela a los niños de 5-6 años, que vivían en zonas rurales y de montaña de difícil acceso, que constituyeron los antecedentes del Programa “Educa a tu Hijo”.
PROJETO ALFA TUNING AMÉRICA LATINA NA FACULDADE DE EDUCAÇÃO DA UNICAMP
Authors: Rueda Jurany Leite , Lima Paulo Gomes
Published: May 2017

Esta pesquisa está inferida na área de políticas públicas educacionais, tendo como orientação metodológica o quadro de análise do Ciclo de Políticas de Ball, conduzida por uma abordagem qualitativa e, por isso a necessidade de interlocução indagativa com os atores do evento ou problemática estudada, paralelamente com a utilização da análise documental e análise de conteúdo como um dos eixos de suporte ao desvelamento do objeto. O objeto da pesquisa é o Projeto Alfa-Tuning América Latina e o nível de conhecimento dos professores da Unicamp sobre a adesão e ruptura com o mesmo. O desenho da pesquisa, bem como as devolutivas dos docentes que responderam ao roteiro de questões semiestruturadas revelou que, embora a universidade seja um local privilegiado do exercício da gestão democrática, nem sempre há suficiente comunicação do planejamento sobre a adesão institucional a projetos nacionais e supranacionais.
Territorio, Poder y Sojización en el Cono Sur latinoamericano. El caso argentino
Authors: Manzanal Mabel
Published: May 2017

El presente trabajo discute la cuestión territorial de reprimarización de las economías latinoamericanas, en particular las del Cono Sur. Para ello, trabajamos con información secundaria, entrevistas a informantes calificados y resultados de investigación, vinculados esencialmente con la sojización en Argentina. Desde una perspectiva que analiza el territorio, el poder y la construcción de hegemonía se descubren variadas situaciones que afectan la subsistencia de las poblaciones que viven de los recursos que están en disputa (tierra, agua, bosques). A través de este análisis se pone en evidencia que la actual forma de acumulación, extractivista y especulativa compromete el futuro de la sociedad en su conjunto. Y desconocerlo resulta funcional a los intereses de los sectores dominantes.
Transiciones hacia una agricultura sostenible: el nicho de la apicultura orgánica en una cooperativa Argentina
Authors: Vila Seoane Maximiliano , Marín Anabel
Published: May 2017

Este artículo argumenta que es posible transformar los senderos de innovación en las industrias basadas en recursos naturales hacia modelos integralmente más sostenibles. En particular, se emplea el marco conceptual de transiciones de sistemas sociotécnicos para comprender los límites estructurales que el sistema de agricultura industrial le impone a COOPSOL, un proyecto cooperativo de apicultura orgánica en Argentina. Los datos son cualitativos y sistematizan, por un lado, las presiones para la continuidad y el cambio en el sistema de agricultura industrial. Por otro lado, revelan las principales percepciones de los actores de COOPSOL ante los límites estructurales existentes.

Published: May 2017

Pada umumnya, bus kampus beroperasi untuk mengantarkan mahasiswa ke kampus baik pada jam kerja (kuliah) maupun libur. Bus kampus akan menurunkan mahasiswa/penumpang bus pada tempat yang telah ditentukan, yang diinginkan oleh penumpangnya. Sistem yang dipilih untuk disimulasikan adalah operasi bus kampus yang tidak teratur dan pengantrian mahasiswa terjadi pada saat jam perkuliahan, sehingga terjadi keterlambatan mahasiswa. Data-data yang dikumpulkan adalah waktu kedatangan bus dan mahasiswa serta waktu keberangkatan bus. Simulasi adalah program (software) komputer yang berfungsi untuk menirukan perilaku sistem nyata (realitas) tertentu. Tujuan simulasi antara lain untuk pelatihan (training), studi perilaku sistem (behaviour) dan hiburan/permainan (game). Dengan melakukan verifikasi dan validasi, maka simulasi sistem yang dirancang dapat ditentukan apakah sesuai dengan kondisi nyatanya. Berdasarkan sistem yang ada, maka dilakukan perbaikan dengan melakukan penambahan jumlah bus sehingga antrian mahasiswa dapat diminimasi.
