Festivaalien avustustenhaku opetusministeriöltä pitkän aikavälin yhteistoiminnallisena pelinä

Seven superimposed lithostratigraphic units have been distinguished in the Upper Trias of Los Pastores (Algeciras). The four lower units (1 to 4) show clayey-sandy-evaporitic Keuper facies. Pollen associations obtained from dark pelitic levels, and bivalves sampled from carbonate intercalations within these four lower units allow to date them as Carnian. These lower units can be correlated with the K1 to K3 units of the Keuper of the Subbetic and of other regions of the Iberian Peninsula. Concerning the three higher units, the unit 6 is pelitic-carbonatic and evaporitic and it also bears Carnian pollen associations. The units 5 and 7, however, are carbonatic and show clearly marine facies a…
Athletes as ‘Cultural Architects’: A Qualitative Analysis of Elite Coaches` Perceptions of Highly Influential Soccer Players
2019
The main purpose of this study was to gain a better understanding of highly influential players\ud in elite soccer. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with ten elite coaches to determine\ud their perceptions of the characteristics, emergence and impact of highly influential players.\ud The interview guide was anchored in coaching literature and leadership theory, and after\ud exploring the interview data in this frame, we decided to label these athletes as cultural\ud architects. The results of the analysis revealed three general dimensions of cultural architects\ud in elite teams: a) Personal characteristics, which include elements related to their\ud achievements on the soccer pitc…
Incentive Mechanism for Edge-Computing-Based Blockchain
2020
Blockchain has been gradually applied to different Internet of Things (IoT) platforms. As the efficiency of the blockchain mainly depends on the network computing capability, how to make sure the acquisition of the computational resources and participation of the devices would be the driving force. In this work, we focus on investigating incentive mechanism for rational miners to purchase the computational resources. A edge computing-based blockchain network is considered, where the edge service provider (ESP) can provide computational resources for the miners. Accordingly, we formulate a two-stage Stackelberg game between the miners and ESP. The aim is to investigate Stackelberg equilibriu…
ÉTICA DE LA EMPRESA DEPORTIVA: ¿UTOPIA O NECESIDAD?
2020
The modern sport has become a spectacle sport that attracts masses eager for sporting events. In this way, the sport becomes a profitable business capable of generating large economic income that enrich elite athletes, as well as sports businessmen.In this article I propose an ethics of the sports company, as part of the ethics applied to sport, that you see the positive side a commercialization, discarding the negative and that enhances the social responsibility of the sports company in a globalized context.
Situational and dispositional goals as predictors of perceptions of individual and team improvement, satisfaction and coach ratings among elite femal…
2002
Abstract Objectives. To examine the relationship of the perceived motivational climate created by the coach and dispositional goal orientations of elite female handball players' (a) perceived individual and team improvement in different facets of the game; (b) satisfaction with their own and the team's game; and (c) ratings of the coach. A second aim was to study whether the dependent variables were best predicted by the perceived motivational climate created by the coach and/or the players' dispositional goal orientations. Design. Cross-sectional. Methods: Elite female handball players (n=181) from 14 teams participating in a national handball competition in Spain completed the Spanish mea…

Los jefes del primer carlismo
2018
En este artículo he intentado averiguar qué tipo de personas fueron los jefes carlistas que participaron en la primera guerra. Para ello he seleccionado a los 100 más destacados y he elaborado una serie de estadísticas con sus datos biográficos. La información la he extraído de la obra de Pirala, de otros trabajos sobre la Primera Guerra Carlista y de varias obras biográficas sobre jefes carlistas. Con esta investigación he podido saber que la mayoría de los jefes carlistas procedían de Cataluña, el País Vasco y Navarra, que eran en su mayoría militares apartados del servicio o jefes de voluntarios realistas y que tuvieron una trayectoria vital bastante variada, habiendo entre ellos idealis…
Solid-state compatibility of Ca:LaNbO4 with perovskite cathodes: Evidences from X-ray microspectroscopy
2022
The solid-state compatibility between calcium-doped lanthanum niobate and three perovskite cathode materials was investigated using two X-ray microbeam techniques, micro X-ray fluorescence and micro X-ray absorption spectroscopy. The cathode powders (lanthanum strontium ferrite, either cobalt or copper-doped, and lanthanum strontium cobaltite) in contact with the dense electrolyte pellet were annealed at 1150 degrees C for 12-144 h to simulate the effect of thermal stresses due to fabrication and long-term operation. As a result, several interdiffusion phenomena were then observed on the bilayer cross-sections: in particular, the chemical state and coordination environment of calcium, iron,…
Incentive Mechanism for Edge Computing-Based Blockchain: A Sequential Game Approach
2022
The development of the blockchain framework is able to provide feasible solutions for a wide range of Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications. While the IIoT devices are usually resource-limited, how to make sure the acquisition of computational resources and participation of the devices will be the driving force to realize blockchain. In this work, an edge computing-based blockchain framework is considered, where multiple edge service providers (ESPs) can provide computational resources to the IIoT devices. We focus on investigating the trading between the devices and ESPs, where ESPs are the sellers and devices are the buyers. A sequential game is formulated and by exploring the…
