This study, conducted in south-east Benin, aims to provide practical information on the optimal conditions for successful propagation of stem cuttings of Pterocarpus erinaceus Poir. (Fabaceae), a real alternative to its regeneration and domestication. A trial was conducted to evaluate the effect of different doses of Acid Naphthalene Acetate (ANA) (0; 500; 750; 1000 and 1500 mg/l), the type of substrate (black forest sand and fine sand) and the size of the cuttings used ([1.5-2] and [2.5-3] cm of diameter) on the recovery of these cuttings. To evaluate the effect of different treatments on budding rate, bud burst rate and degenerate cuttings rate, Generalized Linear Mixed Models and Generalized Linear Models of the binomial family with the lme4 and nlme packages were used with the R.3.2.4 statistical software. The results showed that the application of ANA does not significantly improve the cuttings recovery. The probability of budding and budding with 0 mg / l of ANA is similar to that of 500 mg/l, and 750 mg/l of ANA ; doses of 1000 and 1500 mg/l of ANA significantly reduce the probability of budding and bud burst. The diameter of the stems of Pterocarpus erinaceus does not affect the recovery of the cuttings while the substrate has a marginal effect. Levels of degenerate cuttings during the trial do not vary with the treatments.

This paper focuses on identifying the most common taekwondo hits and kicks used by players at the 23rd Asian taekwondo championships, Vietnam 2018. A lot of researchers attended the 23rd Asian taekwondo championships and they analyzed the quarterfinals, semifinals, and finals for all weights classes for both males and female players. 111 matches (55 for male and 56 for females) were analyzed in this study. A form was used to process and analyze the matches. The results of this study showed that the turn kick attack with the rear leg at the abdominal level was the most commonly used kick, with the highest rate among male and female players (41.4% males and 46.3% females). Also, the percentage of the offensive kicks and strategies among males and females was very high compared with the defensive kicks and strategies. In this regard, the percentage of the offensive kicks among the males was 91%, whereas the rate of the defensive kicks reached 9%. On the other hand, the rate of the offensive kicks among the females was 88%, whereas the rate of the defensive kicks reached 12%. It was concluded that the offensive kicks at the abdominal level was the most commonly used kick among the players. In addition, there was a significant increase in the rate of the face kicks after the regulations amendments.

Published: October 2018

The community structure and diversity of land snail fauna in Ekiti State was investigated in two protected and one unprotected tropical rainforest ecosystems. Twelve (12) plots measuring 20m x 20m each were surveyed in each forest area, using direct search and leaf-litter filtering techniques. A total of 1095 specimens representing 43 species in 9 molluscan families were collected. Each forest area yielded between 190 and 584 individuals. Alpha diversity ranged from 27 to 32 species, with species richness highest in Ogbesse Forest Reserve and least in the unprotected forest area at Ipole Iloro. The herbivorous Subulinidae and carnivorous Streptaxidae were the most represented families as regards species richness, with family Subulinidae (45.20%) being the most abundant numerically. The most abundant species was Thapsia oscitan of the family Urocyclidae, contributing almost 15% of the total number of individuals. Six (6) species occurred as singleton while 4 species occurred as doubleton. There was considerable variation in species richness between the three sampled forest areas, Cluster analysis formed two groups, Analysis of similarity (ANOSIM) between clusters using the BrayCurtis similarity index gave values of R=1, P=0.34, indicating that the study areas were well separated. The high diversity and abundance recorded from this study reveal the study area is rich in land snails, thus, efforts should be made to maintain the ecological integrity of the protected areas as well as improve biodiversity conservation and management in the unprotected areas.

Published: October 2018

Social norms are depriving Agni communities of Bongouanou in central-eastern Côte d’Ivoire of certain foods adding to a state of food insecurity. Based on significant cases of food restrictions, this study analyzed nutritional practices that position individuals and groups in social normative frameworks. This work focused on institutional frameworks where health and food taboo aspects were most shared. This study aims to analyze the social imaginaries associated with food restriction and their link to health in a context of food insecurity. More particularly, it aims at exploring beliefs and representations associated with health risks due to food restrictions. Based on a qualitative approach using data collection techniques as direct observation, semi-structured interviews and focus group discussions, this study was conducted in four villages where the consumption of catfish by local populations is totally prohibited. Social identity theory and the cultural materialism perspective were used for analysis and interpretation of knowledge and beliefs associated with food restrictions. The non-consumption of catfish from the Socotè Lake participated to sociability and the preservation of the indigenous "Agni of Bongouanou" identity. Additionally, food restrictions are determinants of physical and reproductive health of members of the social group. In fact, the collective imaginary of Agni from Bongouanou establishes a causal link between the consumption of this restricted food and health problems. Finally, it has emerged that this food practice could impact the cultural well-being of the community while contributing to the conservation of biodiversity.

Published: October 2018

Software configuration management is one of the first requirements to achieve quality in the software process. However, these activities are very difficult to be introduced, mainly in small software companies. This work proposes a software configuration management plan for small software business. In order to accomplish this goal, an empirical research was carried out, using the Goal/ Question/ Metric method (GQM), to identify how small software companies perform software configuration management. Because the result showed that these software companies do not perform software configuration management, the IEEE standard 828-1990 activities were considered as base for the proposed plan. The plan details the management and technical procedures needed to the accomplishment of the (a) identification, (b) status report and (c) version and change control tasks. This plan is a first step to improve software processes quality.
Performance Evaluation of Load-Balanced Routing via Bounded Randomization
Authors: Bak Sangman , Cobb Jorge A. , Leiss Ernst L.
Published: October 2018

Future computer networks are expected to carry bursty traffic. Shortest -path routing protocols such as OSPF and RIP have t he disadvantage of causing bottlenecks due to their inherent single -path routing. That is, the uniformly selected shortest path between a source and a destination may become highly congested even when many other paths have low utilization. We propose a family of routing schemes that distribute data traffic over the whole network via bounded randomization; in this way, they remove bottlenecks and consequently improve network performance. For each data message to be sent from a source s to a destination d, each of the proposed routing protocols randomly choose an intermediate node e from a selected set of network nodes, and routes the data message along a shortest path from s to e. Then, it routes the data message via a shortest path from e to d. Intuitively, we would expect that this increase the effective bandwidth between each source -destination pair. Our simulation results indicate that the family of proposed load -balanced routing protocols distribute traffic evenly over the whole network and , in consequenc e, increases network performance with respect to throughput, message loss, message delay and link utilization. Moreover, implementing our scheme requires only a simple extension to any shortest-path routing protocol.
México y el TLCAN: escenarios de política comercial. Simulaciones con un modelo de equilibrio general aplicado
Authors: Dávila Flores Alejandro , Sobarzo Fimbres Horacio Enrique , Valdés Ibarra Miriam
Published: October 2018

Antecedentes: el desempeño de la estructura de la economía mexicana, especialmente la de su sector manufacturero, es muy dependiente del mercado norteamericano. Las dificultades del proceso de renegociación del Tratado de Libre Comercio de América del Norte (tlcan) han alimentado la incertidumbre acerca del futuro de las relaciones comerciales entre los países participantes en el mismo. En estas circunstancias resulta indispensable evaluar los impactos potenciales sobre la economía mexicana de diferentes escenarios posibles de política comercial.Metodología: se emplea un modelo de equilibrio general aplicado (mega) como base de las estimaciones, el cual está sustentado en una matriz de contabilidad social (mcs), valuada a precios de mercado (2008). Se trata de la primera mcs con esta característica que se produce en México.Resultados: en el modelo a corto plazo, en el cual se consideran únicamente los efectos de las variaciones esperadas en los aranceles, se observa un impacto reducido en el producto interno bruto (pib) agregado y de mayor consideración en algunos sectores exportadores. En el modelo de largo plazo, que adicionalmente contempla una contracción en los montos de inversión extranjera directa (ied), las consecuencias serían de mayor magnitud, incluso a nivel global, con una caída superior a 3.5% en el pib, una contracción más significativa en las exportaciones e impactos sectoriales considerables en las actividades productivas con mayor orientación al mercado externo. Estos impactos adversos se magnifican si México responde con la imposición de aranceles de nación más favorecida (nmf) a las importaciones provenientes de los Estados Unidos.Conclusiones: si se consideran únicamente las variaciones en los aranceles, la eventual cancelación del tlcan tendría efectos económicos moderados sobre la economía mexicana, pues entrarían en vigencia los aranceles de nmf, acordados por cada país ante la omc (Organización Mundial de Comercio), los cuales, en su mayoría, son reducidos. Por desgracia, un cambio de esta relevancia puede afectar sensiblemente los flujos de la inversión extranjera directa (ied), en cuyo caso las repercusiones serían de mayor envergadura.
ESPACIALIDADE E EVOLUÇÃO DA INCISÃO DE VALES FLUVIAIS A PARTIR DA DISSECAÇÃO DO RELEVO NOS DEGRAUS ESCALONADOS DO SUDESTE DE MINAS GERAIS - BRASIL

Published: October 2018

A configuração geomorfológica do sudeste de Minas Gerais é marcada por degraus escalonados em nítida conformação com a rede hidrográfica regional. A organização em planta destes degraus acompanha a distribuição espacial das bacias hidrográficas que drenam a área investigada. As bacias do interior continental, Paraná e São Francisco, localizam-se em degrau superior, enquanto as bacias costeiras se situam em distintos níveis topográficos, de tal modo que a bacia do rio Doce ocupa patamar intermediário e a do Paraíba do Sul degrau inferior. É atribuída a estas últimas maior capacidade denudacional em razão de sua maior amplitude altimétrica e por estarem elas diretamente atreladas ao nível de base geral do oceano. O presente trabalho investigou a dissecação e evolução espacial dos vales fluviais nos distintos compartimentos geomorfológicos em que se inserem esses conjuntos de bacias. Foi aqui empregado método de investigação da dissecação do relevo e da incisão dos vales fluviais apoiado em técnicas de geoprocessamento e na análise de atributos geocartográficos. Essas técnicas consistiram no uso de dados de elevação altimétrica para se calcular a declividade, a curvatura vertical das vertentes e a densidade de drenagem, parâmetros quantitativos fundamentais na elaboração de mapa de incisão dos vales fluviais. Os resultados demostraram que a evolução dos vales fluviais está fortemente condicionada aos diferentes graus de incisão da rede hidrográfica, evidenciando maior incisão nas bacias costeiras em comparação às bacias interiores. Nas bacias costeiras a incisão vertical mais efetiva da rede hidrográfica resultou no significativo encaixamento dos vales e, consequentemente, no seu gradiente e amplitude altimétrica mais elevados e no estreitamento de seus flancos. Tal condição geomorfológica, na área investigada, favorece a instalação de processos desestabilizadores das vertentes, uma vez que sua dinâmica se vincula no espaço e no tempo ao ritmo e vigor da dissecação fluvial. Por outro lado, naquelas bacias interiores a menor amplitude altimétrica dos vales favorece o seu entulhamento por sedimentos que transitam nas calhas fluviais.

É importante ressaltar a importância dos trabalhos de campo para a execução desse trabalho, onde o levantamento fotográfico e a conferência do comportamento do relevo, serviram para uma caracterização detalhada da área, pois o relevo e a geomorfologia possuem um papel de extrema relevância para o planejamento ambiental aliado ao ordenamento territorial
EROSÃO DE MARGENS EM RIOS SEMIÁRIDOS: ESTUDO NA SUB-BACIA DO BAIXO JAGUARIBE – CEARÁ – BRASIL
Authors: Andrade José Hamilton Ribeiro , Maia Celsemy Eleutério
Published: October 2018

A erosão de margens de rio é um processo natural que pode ser intensificado pelas atividades humanas, produzindo efeitos catastróficos para o ambiente fluvial. O entendimento deste processo é fundamental, para os estudos relacionados a geomorfologia fluvial, pois além de proporcionar desequilíbrios ambientais, podem acarretar problemas de ordem social e econômica.  O presente estudo teve como objetivo analisar a dinâmica dos processos de erosão de margens no rio Jaguaribe, no seu baixo curso, precisamente no município de Quixeré. O rio Jaguaribe é um dos principais mananciais do Estado do Ceará, sendo um rio semiárido e tendo suas vazões controladas por açudes. Para o monitoramento das margens foram selecionadas ao longo de um trecho de 10 km do rio nove seções, que foram agrupadas em três tipos áreas, Área Conservada (AC), Área Parcialmente Conservada (APC) e Área Degradada (AD). Para quantificar as taxas erosivas foi utilizado a metodologia dos pinos de erosão. Os resultados obtidos mostram que as áreas degradadas apresentaram valores de recuo de 13,5 cm ano-1 e volume erodido de 7,77 m3, sendo os maiores valores observados, já as conservadas apresentaram valores de recuo de 3,05 cm ano-1 e volume de 1,39 m3 ano-1, acompanhado das áreas parcialmente conservadas que obtiveram valores de recuo de 4,85 cm ano-1 e volume de 1,52 m3 ano-1. Para o período avaliado (junho/2014 a maio/2015), a principal condicionante responsável pela erosão marginal foram as precipitações, mesmo sendo um ano de chuvas abaixo da média histórica.

Na região Oeste do Paraná, a expansão urbana e a agrícola apontam para a necessidade de mapeamentos detalhados de solos, assim como em grande parte do território brasileiro. O decreto n. 9.414, de 20 de junho de 2018, que instituiu o Programa Nacional de Levantamento e Interpretação de Solos do Brasil-Pronasolos é uma das consequências políticas desse processo. Indispensável ao planejamento do uso e manejo urbano e rural do solo que, no município de Quatro Pontes-PR, ocorre, em teoria, sob o amparo da legislação ambiental e municipal, o mapa detalhado dos solos é um documento cartográfico essencial. Assim, foi proposta a elaboração do mapeamento digital do solo (MDS), em escala 1:50.000, do alto curso do córrego Quatro Pontes. O objetivo foi avaliar a correspondência espacial das classes de solos em relação ao Mapeamento Convencional de Solos (MCS) do referido setor. Os dados do SRTM (Shuttle Radar Topography Mission) auxiliaram no MDS. A partir destes foram gerados os atributos topográficos de altimetria, declividade, curvatura da vertente e o Índice de Capacidade de Transporte de Sedimentos. A álgebra dos atributos topográficos primários e secundários foi utilizada para realizar o MDS da sub-bacia. Verificou-se que os LATOSSOLOS VERMELHOS (LV) dominam os segmentos estáveis dos interflúvios com declividade <3 % e curvatura retílinea-divergente. Nos segmentos médios e inferiores das vertentes, com declividade entre 3 e 20%, ocorrem os NITOSSOLOS VERMELHOS (NV). Nos segmentos mais dissecados e nos fundos de vale (>20% de declividade), ocorre a associação de NEOSSOLO REGOLÍTICO (RR) + NEOSSOLO LITÓLICO (RL) + CAMBISSOLO HÁPLICO (CX), enquanto que, próximos aos canais fluviais e alguns setores sujeitos a hidromorfia ocorrem os GLEISSOLOS HÁPLICOS (GX). A álgebra entre o MCS e o MDS indicou uma correspondência espacial com exatidão global de 66% entre as classes de solos mapeadas. Os resultados mais precisos no MDS estão relacionados aos LATOSSOLOS VERMELHOS, NITOSSOLOS VERMELHOS e GLEISSOLOS HÁPLICOS.

A Serra do Mar apresenta ainda um dos maiores remanescentes contínuos de Mata Atlântica sendo caracterizada ao mesmo tempo pela recorrência dos movimentos de massa associados às chuvas intensas. No desastre da região serrana (RJ), mais de 3.600 deslizamentos foram deflagrados, dos quais 24,6% ocorreram em coberturas de gramíneas, enquanto 54,8% ocorreram em coberturas de florestas. Esse trabalho teve como objetivo analisar a influência dessas vegetações no controle da umidade do solo para o entendimento da deflagração dos deslizamentos nas chuvas intensas. Duas encostas foram selecionadas em Nova Friburgo (RJ) para o monitoramento da precipitação, interceptação e sucção nas profundidades de 5, 20, 50, 100, 150 e 220 cm, que também foram analisadas em relação a biomassa e comprimento de raízes grossas (> 2 mm) e finas (< 2 mm) e em relação as propriedades físicas do solo (granulometria, estabilidade de agregados e porosidade). Os resultados demonstraram diferenças expressivas de biomassa e comprimento de raízes grossas entre a floresta (1785,0 g.m-3 e 40,1 m.m-3) e a gramínea (121,2 g.m-3 e 6,4 m.m-3). A biomassa de raízes finas foi parecida entre as vegetações, porém na gramínea foram encontradas até 100 cm, enquanto na floresta até 200 cm. Em relação às propriedades físicas do solo, a principal diferença foi encontrada na maior estabilidade de agregados e porosidade na floresta, refletindo a melhor estruturação do solo pelas raízes. A interceptação florestal foi de 19% da precipitação, indicando a recuperação dessa função hidrológica. As raízes florestais contribuíram para a entrada e retira de umidade ao longo de todo o perfil, ao passo que na gramínea as profundidades de 100, 150 e 220 cm apresentaram conservação da umidade (-20 kPa) durante todo o monitoramento. Nas fortes chuvas, entretanto, ambas as vegetações favoreceram a saturação do solo (-3 kPa) que na gramínea ocorreu até 50 cm, enquanto na floresta ocorreu a partir de 100 cm.

Published: September 2018

The Protected Forest Area Register 22 Way Waya generally 80% of its condition has been utilized and managed by the society, where part of this area was a part of Way Seputih Hulu. This condition means that vegetation changes in land cover will occur as the time goes by. The less of vegetation means that the less of water storage in the soil so will affect the river discharge. This research was aimed to analyze changes of forest cover from 2000−2015 and its effect on Way Seputih Hulu discharge. The method used in this research is the calculation of runoff coefficient, simple regression analysis and descriptive analysis. The results showed that the change of forest cover in Way Seputih Hulu from 2000−2015 decreased (26,32% to 11,26%) its function has been changed into settlement and plantations that affected the increasing of average discharge (16,3 m3/s to 17,1 m3/s), maximum discharge (32,7 m3/s to 49,8 m3/s), fluctuation of river discharge (10,6 to 49,8), runoff coefficient (0,17 to 0,23) and the decreasing of minimum discharge (3,1 m3/s to m3/s).Kawasan Hutan Lindung Register 22 Way Waya secara umum 80% kondisinya telah dimanfaatkan dan dikelola oleh masyarakat dimana sebagian dari wilayah tersebut merupakan bagian dari Way Seputih Hulu. Kondisi demikian berarti perubahan vegetasi tutupan lahan akan terjadi seiring berjalannya waktu. Vegetasi yang semakin sedikit menunjukkan semakin berkurangnya daya simpan air di dalam tanah sehingga debit sungai ikut terpengaruh. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis perubahan tutupan lahan hutan dari tahun 2000−2015 dan hubungannya terhadap debit Way Seputih Hulu. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini yaitu perhitungan koefisien runoff, analisis regresi sederhana dan analisis deskriptif. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan perubahan tutupan hutan di Way Seputih Hulu tahun 2000–2015 menurun (26,32% menjadi 11,26%) beralih fungsi menjadi pemukiman dan perkebunan yang berpengaruh tehadap peningkatan debit rata-rata (16,3 m3/dt menjadi 17,1 m3/dt), debit maksimum (32,7 m3/dt menjadi 49,8 m3/ dt), fluktuasi debit (10,6 menjadi 49,8), koefisien aliran permukaan (0,17 menjadi 0,23) dan penurunan debit minimum (3,1 m3/dt menjadi 1,0 m3/dt).
Alice in Wonderland: Unrealized fertility and satisfaction with number of children according to couples’ point of view in a city in Brazil

Published: October 2018

No Brasil, o hiato entre fecundidade ideal e observada é cada vez mais comum. Paralelamente, perante as severas críticas feitas aos indicadores disponíveis sobre o tamanho desejado/ideal de família, torna-se relevante refletir sobre até que ponto as respostas das pessoas refletem adequadamente suas preferências. O objetivo deste artigo é discutir se ter menos filhos do que o desejado é fruto de uma escolha ou se representa, de fato, uma incapacidade de implementação das preferências reprodutivas e uma insatisfação com o seu comportamento de fecundidade. Utilizam-se dados de 62 entrevistas em profundidade realizadas com 31 com casais de alta escolaridade com até dois filhos, residentes em Belo Horizonte, Brasil. Pode-se verificar que a fecundidade discrepante negativa predominou para a maioria dos casais entrevistados.

The heavy rain in Northern Kyushu District on July 5, 2017 caused a sediment disaster, resulting in the loss of many lives and damage to buildings. In this study, the primary causes (topography and geology) and trigger factors (rainfall) for the sediment disaster were spatially analyzed to examine factors contributing to slope failure. As a result, it was found that the number of slope failures was highest in metamorphic rock areas and the occurrence density of the landslides was highest in plutonic rock areas. In addition, the slope angle of the slope-failure source point was sizable in volcanic rock areas and many landslides occurred in the valley-formed areas. A rainfall analysis showed that the Akatani, Shirakitani, Sozu, Kita, Naragaya, Myoken, Katsura river basins and Ono, Ohi, Sata, Inaibaru river basins are different rainfall distributions, which significantly affected the slope-failure occurrence density.

The heavy rainfall event that occurred on 5–6 July 2017 in Northern Kyushu, Japan, caused extensive flooding across several mountainous river basins and resulted in fatalities and extensive damage to infrastructure along those rivers. For the periods before and during the extreme event, there are no hydrological observations for many of the flooded river basins, most of which are small and located in mountainous regions. We used the Gridded Surface Subsurface Hydrologic Analysis (GSSHA) model, a physically based model, to acquire more detailed information about the hydrological processes in the flood-affected ungauged mountain basins. We calibrated the GSSHA model using data from an adjacent gauged river basin, and then applied it to several small ungauged basins without changing the parameters of the model. We simulated the gridded flow and generated a map of the possible maximum flood depth across the basins. By comparing the extent of flood-affected areas from the model with data of the Japanese Geospatial Information Authority (GSI), we found that the maximum flood inundation areas of the river networks estimated by the GSSHA model are sometimes less than those estimated by the GSI, as the influence of landslides and erosion was not considered in the modeling. The model accuracy could be improved by taking these factors into account, although this task would be challenging. The results indicated that simulations of flood inundation in ungauged mountain river basins could contribute to disaster management during extreme rain events.

A new method was proposed for the probabilistic projection of future climate that introduced quantile mapping to a regression method using a multi-model ensemble (QM_RMME). Results of this method were then compared with those of the traditional regression method (RMME). Six stations in Japan where 100 year observation records were available were used to evaluate the performance of the methods. An initial 50-year period (1901–1950) was used to develop the regression models and the final period (1951–2000) was used for evaluation. Results showed that the estimation errors at the 50th and 90th percentile were smaller for QM_RMME as compared to RMME at most sites. Conversely, when the model development and evaluation periods were limited to 20 years (1901–1920 and 1951–1970, respectively), the 90th percentile error was larger for QM_RMME. This was attributed to quantile mapping resulting in over-fitting of the data during the model development period. Furthermore, the QM_RMME error increased when the difference of observations between the model development and verification periods was large. Therefore, results indicated that the RMME method was more stable for relatively short data verification periods.

During the 2016 Kumamoto earthquakes, two earthquakes of seismic intensity 7 were observed in Mashiki Town, the foreshock (MJMA6.5) of April 14 and the main shock (MJMA7.3) of April 16, resulting in significant damage to structures near the fault. The distribution of damage of houses and other buildings [1] showed a tendency in which damage was concentrated in areas near the surface earthquake fault where the main shock presumably occurred. However, there were locations with slight damage even though they were immediately above the fault and locations with a relatively significant damage even though they were far from the fault. These phenomena are highly likely to be a result of soil structure. First, we built an initial geologic model by collecting boring data in areas of the Kumamoto plain near the fault where damage was severe. Next, we observed microtremors, collected earthquake observational records, and adjusted the layer thickness and S-wave velocity of the initial geologic model. Finally, we built a shallow and deep integrated ground model, compared it to the building damage distribution, and discussed the implications.

In order to understand the damage situation immediately after the occurrence of a disaster and to support disaster response, we developed a method to classify the degree of building damage in three stages with machine-learning using road-running survey images obtained immediately after the Kumamoto earthquake. Machine-learning involves a learning phase and a discrimination phase. As training data, we used images from a camera installed in the travel direction of an automobile, in which the degree of damage was visually categorized. In the learning phase, class separation is carried out by support vector machine (SVM) on a basis of a feature calculated from training patch images for each extracted damage category. In the discrimination phase, input images are provided with raster scan so that the class separation is carried out in units of the patch image. In this manner, learning, discrimination, and parameter tuning are repeated. By doing so, we developed a damage-discrimination model for each patch image and validated the discrimination accuracy using a cross-validation method. Furthermore, we developed a method using an optical flow for preventing double counting of damaged areas in cases where an identical building is captured in multiple photos.

The damages caused by cyber-attacks are becoming larger, broader and more serious and to include monetary losses and losses of lifeline. Some cyber-attacks are arguably suspected to be parts of national campaigns. Under such circumstances, the public sector must endeavour to enhance the national cybersecurity capacities. There are several benchmarks for national cybersecurity, i.e., a snapshot relative assessment of a nation’s cybersecurity strength at a global level. However, by considering the development of technology, attackers’ skills and capacities of other nations, we believe that it is more important to review the national strategy for cybersecurity capacity enhancement and to ensure that the national capacity advances adequately in the coming years. We propose a method of reviewing national strategies. Additionally, we performed a trial review of the Japanese cybersecurity strategy using the Cybersecurity Capacity Maturity Model for Nations (CSCMMN) developed by the Global Cyber Security Capacity Centre. This trial proved to be workable because it detected various possibly inadequate (insufficient, inappropriate or inefficient, although further investigation is needed) approaches in the Japanese strategy. Moreover, the review also discovered the shortcomings of the capacity areas in the CSCMMN. We plan to improve the reviewing method and develop the improvement process of national strategies for cybersecurity capacity enhancement.

Sistema de cargos y cambio social. Etnografía de la fiesta patronal en el barrio de San Miguelito de la ciudad de San Luis Potosí
Authors: Madrigal González David
Published: October 2018

El presente artículo se desprende del trabajo de campo realizado entre 2003 y 2004 en el barrio San Miguelito de la ciudad de San Luis Potosí, México. El argumento central de la propuesta es que el sistema de cargos que soporta la fiesta patronal en esta comunidad urbana persiste gracias al sistema de mayordomías, cuya función esencial ha sido la organización social del ceremonial festivo-religioso dedicado al santo patrono. La existencia de un sistema de reciprocidades entre vecinos del barrio, el consumo suntuario, la reproducción y preservación de la identidad comunitaria son aspectos en los que se observa la importancia del sistema de cargos urbano y las mayordomías como mediadores entre las fuerzas internas que promueven la cohesión colectiva y las fuerzas contrarias que tienden hacia la fragmentación. Con este artículo se pretende cierta originalidad al aportar elementos de reflexión que ayuden a relativizar la noción paradigmática de que el sistema de cargos es “una particularidad de la estructura social indígena”, o bien, que es una “institución típicamente indígena”.
