Diez años de smartphones. Un análisis semiótico-comunicacional del impacto social de la telefonía móvil
2018
El teléfono móvil con conexión a Internet (o smartphone) es la tecnología que más rápidamente se ha difundido en la sociedad actual y ha producido hábitos decisivos en los estilos de vida de la ciudadanía. Esta investigación examina desde una perspectiva semiótica-comunicacional la relación de diferentes sectores de la sociedad de hoy con estos dispositivos. Se sirve del universo narrativo del programa “Conectados” de la serie Salvados, programa dedicado precisamente al uso social de esta tecnología justo a los diez años de la aparición del primer smartphone. A través del análisis de los contenidos volcados por los diversos actores que intervienen –adolescentes, adultos, familias, escuela y…
Nanostructured lead acid battery for electric vehicles applications
2017
This paper presents an innovative lead acid battery, based on nanostructured active materials. Both charging time and specific energy are greatly enhanced in comparison with commercial lead acid battery. Starting from the extremely valuable performances of the nanostructured battery, also a circuital model, for application in electric vehicle traction, has been specifically developed. The circuital model has demonstrated that an enhanced nanostructured battery allows an increase of traveled distance by electric vehicles.
Integrated multimedia publishing: combining TV and newspaper content on personal channels
1999
Abstract Fast networks enable the delivery of TV and newspaper content over an Internet connection. This enables new types of integrated publications that include features from both media. The IMU system, described in this paper, automatically integrates newspaper and TV content into a continuously updated World Wide Web-multimedia publication. An active proxy server pursues the integration and delivers the publication through an ATM fibre link to fast networks, such as the bi-directional cable TV network and the ADSL telephone network, providing near-TV quality. The users read the IMU publication from the Internet on their PCs with normal World Wide Web-browsers. You can also watch the pub…
Influence of integrated marketing communication tools upon consumers’ buying decisions in the context of sustainability
2019
A topical business subject of nowadays is the influence of integrated marketing communications (IMC) for sustainability upon various consumer audiences and their buying decisions. From the standpoint of businesses the use of integrated marketing communications in product promotion contributes to the consumption of sustainable, ecological products and, consequently, a healthy lifestyle, yet the factors influencing buyer’s buying decisions still remain topical. In this research the authors surveyed buyers of Latvian food retail chains to find out the influence of promotion-related integrated marketing communication tools for sustainability upon buyers’ buying decisions. The research brings co…
Anti-Human CD9 Fab Fragment Antibody Blocks the Extracellular Vesicle-Mediated Increase in Malignancy of Colon Cancer Cells.
2022
Intercellular communication between cancer cells themselves or with healthy cells in the tumor microenvironment and/or pre-metastatic sites plays an important role in cancer progression and metastasis. In addition to ligand–receptor signaling complexes, extracellular vesicles (EVs) are emerging as novel mediators of intercellular communication both in tissue homeostasis and in diseases such as cancer. EV-mediated transfer of molecular activities impacting morphological features and cell motility from highly metastatic SW620 cells to non-metastatic SW480 cells is a good in vitro example to illustrate the increased malignancy of colorectal cancer leading to its transformation and aggressive b…
Practitioners’ Experiences of Social Media in Career Services
2015
A growing number of career practitioners and career centers are reaching out to individuals and community members in new ways by integrating various social media tools, such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn, into their professional practices (e.g., Dyson, 2012; Osborn & LoFrisco, 2012). To many, social media are simply online tools to share information and to communicate and socialize with one another. In the broader sense, social media is defined as a process whereby individuals and groups build a common understanding and meaning with contents, communities, and Web 2.0 technology (e.g., Ahlqvist, Back, Heinonen, & Halonen, 2010; Kangas, Toivonen, & Back, 2007).An extensive body of litera…
La eclosión de la prensa satírica en España (1868-1874)
2018
espanolEl nacimiento y consolidacion de la prensa satirica en el periodo revolucionario de 1868-1874, constituye el tema central de este trabajo. Convertidos en instrumento de propaganda por los liberales desde 1808, los periodicos satiricos pronto demostraron su capacidad de influencia sobre un pueblo que, si no podia leer, al menos podia escuchar recitados sus textos o ver sus dibujos comicos. A traves de estos periodicos se desarrollo una intensa y eficaz via de politizacion que culmina en la situacion revolucionaria de 1868-1874 con la proliferacion de cabeceras y la emergencia de sendas culturas politicas: una revolucionaria democratica, otra contrarrevolucionaria carlista. EnglishThe …
Wireless ATM : handover issues
1998
Basic aspects of cellular systems and the ATM transmission technology are introduced. Wireless ATM is presented as a combination of radio ATM and mobile ATM. Radio ATM is a wireless extension of an ATM connection while mobile ATM contains the necessary extensions to ATM to support mobility. Because the current ATM technology does not support mobility, handover becomes one of the most important research issues for wireless ATM. Wireless ATM handover requirements are thus analysed. A handover solution relying on two inter-related handover protocols is presented and evaluated. Future research is needed to compare this solution with options presented by earlier research and possibly combine the…

Exploring twitter for csr disclosure: influence of ceo and firm characteristics in latin american companies
2018
Social networks, which are characterised by accessibility and interactivity, offer great potential for dialogue between companies and stakeholders, for example as platforms for publishing information on aspects of corporate social responsibility (CSR). In this paper, we use a synthetic index to analyse levels of CSR disclosure via Twitter, and identify explanatory variables of this disclosure by studying the demographic characteristics of the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) and of the company. This synthetic index was based on data for 93 companies located in the four countries of the Pacific Alliance (Chile, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru), using categories based on the 2016 Global Reporting Ini…
