El tiempo de uso de los videojuegos en el rendimiento académico de los adolescentes
2020
El uso de los videojuegos entre los jóvenes ha generado una gran preocupación por sus posibles efectos negativos para su salud, socialización y rendimiento académico. Respecto a este último aspecto, existen estudios que apuntan a que los videojuegos son negativos para el rendimiento académico mientras que en otras investigaciones se encuentran efectos positivos. Por esto, el presente trabajo se ocupa de las relaciones entre el tiempo de uso de videojuegos y el rendimiento académico de los escolares adolescentes de la Comunidad Valenciana. Se utilizó un cuestionario ad hoc, validado a través de juicio de expertos (0,8 validez y confiabilidad) para realizar este estudio transversal ex post fa…

Virtual/Digital and Internet-based Machining
2008
This chapter provides comprehensive knowledge regarding the application of various virtual digital and information techniques to machining processes and machine tools, and their simulation and visualization. A number of manufacturing concepts used in modern industry, such as Internet-based manufacturing, digital manufacturing, virtual manufacturing and telemanufacturing, are characterized. In particular, architectures of digital manufacturing and virtual manufacturing, along with their practical applications, are presented. The architecture of the virtual machine tool and numerous examples of simulations of machining process performing on multi-axis/multitasking are visualized. Moreover, vi…
Two photogrammetric methods for measuring flat elements in buildings under construction
2008
Usually, determining the dimensions of flat surfaces in buildings under construction, such as window cavities and facade coating materials, are done by direct measuring methods using tapes and plummets. Sometimes these methods suppose a slow and highly risky work for operators. This research proposes the substitution of these procedures by indirect methods based on close range photogrammetry and laser distance measurement. First, we show the design, construction and calibration of a system composed by a digital camera and a lasermeter mounted on a support with multiple turning positions. Next, two different facade element measuring methodologies are shown. The first method is based on takin…
Introduction to Information Technology for Development Minitrack
2015
The papers in this minitrack take the discourse of how Information Technology (IT) applications enable development objectives to take place to a new level. The contributions from the papers in this minitrack illustrate the innovative ways in which IT applications can bring about improvements in the lives of people.
A DSP-Based Resolver-To-Digital Converter for High-Performance Electrical Drive Applications
2016
This paper presents a low cost, simple, and highly accurate resolver-to-digital converter (RDC) for electrical drive applications based on an integrated software approach, thus allowing a significant reduction of hardware components count with significant improvements in terms of reliability, reduction of fault rate, and susceptibility to electromagnetic interference (EMI). Particular attention has been addressed to cost which is 25% off over conventional RDC. Simulations and experimental tests confirm the high quality of the proposed system.
BIM and Low-Cost Survey Techniques for Building Heritage Conservation
2017
The aim of this contribution is to illustrate a methodology for the protection and management of the building heritage, adding to the historical documentary investigations, a careful phase of survey and a conscious geometric and informational modelling of the pre-existence. The focus of this work was the Tower of Vietri sul Mare: a significant example of the architectural defense strategies adopted in Salerno in the 16th century. In fact, through the creation of digital models, it would be facilitated the management of the volumetric evolution that this tower has undergone over time, ensuring a greater accessibility and an easier understanding of the transformations it has suffered.
Welcome to MTI—A New Open Access Journal Dealing with Blue Sky Research and Future Trends in Multimodal Technologies and Interaction
2016
In this era of massive use of computers and other computational devices (e.g., low-cost wearable sensors, smartphones, other smart devices, etc.), the nature of digital data is becoming more complex and heterogeneous.
A microcontroller-based portable electrocardiograph recorder.
2004
We describe a low cost portable Holler design that can be implemented with off-the-shelf components. The recorder is battery powered and includes a graphical display and keyboard. The recorder is capable of acquiring up to 48 hours of continuous electrocardiogram data at a sample rate of up to 250 Hz.
Development of the control card for the digitizers of the second generation electronics of AGATA
2012
In this work, the features and development process of the novel control card for the digitizers of AGATA are presented. The board is part of the new hardware proposed for the electronic system of the experiment. In particular, the control card provides the sampling clock for the digitizers, contributes to the synchronization of the digital data and performs the slow control of its associated digitizer cards.
