El enriquecimiento injusto en los procedimientos de familia
2021
En las relaciones familiares post crisis de pareja pueden darse situaciones que originen el enriquecimiento sin causa de una de las partes en perjuicio de la otra. Encontramos ejemplos de ello en cuestiones como la pensión de alimentos, atribución de la vivienda familiar, o indemnizaciones por rupturas de parejas de hecho.
Investigating Jubaniyah. A Late Chalcolithic site on the Upper Tigris River, Iraqi Kurdistan. Preliminary report
2021
Jubaniyah is a blufftop settlement of 4 hectares set on a terrace overlooking the River Tigris in northern Iraq (Iraqi Kurdistan) demonstrating a significant and almost exclusive occupation during the Late Chalcolithic period (ca. 4800-3000 BC). Besides an agricultural-pastoral orientation, the site presumably also functioned as a central hub in riverine communication and exchange with the hinterland during most of this long period. Set within the catchment area of the Mosul Dam reservoir, Jubaniyah is also one among more than 150 flooded sites which periodically resurface due to the reservoir’s annual or cyclical water fluctuation, thus intermittingly revealing the spolia of their past. Th…
Comentarios a la ponencia del prof. Vives
2015
De los siete apartados en que el Prof. vives divide su artículo, sólo discrepo del apartado sexto, en el que discute la cuestión de fundamentación de los principios de justicia, dando por superados los elementos metafísicos de la filosofía política y del Derecho de Kant. Procederé haciendo primero una exposición de la teoría de la justicia de Rawls, centrándome en los temas kantianos de Rawls. Me referiré después al posible punto de discrepancia con la posición de Vives. Por último, acompañaré a Vives en su defensa del liberalismo. De los siete apartados en que el Prof. vives divide su artículo, sólo discrepo del apartado sexto, en el que discute la cuestión de fundamentación de los princip…
Measuring electrostatic double-layer forces on HOPG at high surface potentials
1999
Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate surface forces in aqueous electrolyte solutions between surfaces with high electric potentials. Therefore the force between a surface of highly oriented pyrolytic graphite (HOPG) and a silicon nitride tip of an atomic force microscope was measured. Various electric potentials by a counter electrode were applied to the HOPG, which served as working electrode. As predicted by the Poisson–Boltzmann theory the electrostatic double-layer force changed only in a narrow potential range of ≈300 mV. At high negative sample potentials, where the negatively charged tip was repelled from the sample, the force saturated. At positive potentials an attract…
Entrepreneurial orientation and new product development performance in SMEs: The mediating role of business model innovation
2021
Abstract In the current business context, entrepreneurial orientation (EO) has been highlighted as key to improving firm performance. Despite the overall positive evidence on the association between EO and firm performance, scholars have stressed the importance of taking into account and properly managing intermediate capabilities. The present study analyses the link between EO and New Product Development (NPD) performance, considering Business Model Innovation (BMI) as a mediating variable. A sample of 400 Spanish SMEs is used to test the proposed research model through structural equation modelling and partial least squares analyses. Results reveal that EO contributes to BMI and NPD perfo…
Linking Entrepreneurial Orientation and Firm Performance: The Role of Organizational Learning Capability and Innovation Performance
2013
This research contributes to the entrepreneurial orientation (EO)–performance literature by offering a wider picture that includes two intermediate steps: organizational learning capability (OLC) and innovation performance. This study also provides an explanation of intra-industry firm performance differences by focusing on EO. We use structural equation modeling to test the hypotheses on a data set from Italian and Spanish ceramic tile producers. The results support our conceptual model and demonstrate its usefulness in explaining differences in intra-industry firm performance. Findings suggest that OLC and innovation performance should be enhanced by managers in order to boost the positiv…
Goal-Oriented Development of BDI Agents: The PRACTIONIST Approach
2006
The representation of goals and the ability to reason about them play an important role in goal-oriented requirements analysis and modelling techniques, especially in agent-oriented software engineering, as goals are more stable than other abstractions (e.g. user stories). In PRACTIONIST, a framework for developing agent systems according to the Belief-Desire-Intention (BDI) model, goals play a central role. Thus, in this paper we describe the structure of the goal model in the PRACTIONIST framework and how agents use their goal model to reason about goals, desires, and intentions during their deliberation process and means-ends reasoning as well as while performing their activities.
How to measure students’ innovation competences in higher education : Evaluation of an assessment tool in authentic learning environments
2018
Abstract In all sectors of the economy, the importance of innovation is underlined. Although education plays a central role in the development of human innovation skills, several studies suggest that higher education institutions cannot fulfill these demands. In such, there is a need to update pedagogical practices and develop assessment tools to measure and develop a person’s innovation capacity. The aim of this study is to test and evaluate the functioning of the earlier developed assessment tool to measure students’ innovation competences in the authentic learning environments of Finnish higher education institutions. The electronic self-assessment questionnaire was distributed to studen…
