Metaphors in the mirror: The influence of teaching metaphors in a medical education programme
2016
Medical students often face problems in using and understanding metaphors when communicating with a patient or reading a scientific paper. These figures of speech constitute an interpretative problem and students need key strategies to facilitate metaphor comprehension and disambiguation of meaning. This article examines how medical students' strategies of metaphor comprehension could be improved by specific teaching on metaphors using a Cognitive Linguistics approach. Medical students' ability to comprehend mirror neuron metaphors was assessed comparing the performance of students who did not receive any instruction about metaphoric extension strategies after a lesson on mirror neurons wit…
A flexible and reconfigurable 5G networking architecture based on context and content information
2017
The need for massive content delivery is a consolidated trend in mobile communications, and will even increase for next years. Moreover, while 4G maturity and evolution is driven by video contents, next generation (5G) networks will be dominated by heterogeneous data and additional massive diffusion of Internet of Things (IoT). The current network architecture is not sufficient to cope with such traffic, which is heterogeneous in terms of latency and QoS requirements, and variable in space and time. This paper proposes architectural advances to endow the network with the necessary flexibility helping to adapt to these varying traffic needs by providing content and communication services whe…
Designing the 5G network infrastructure: a flexible and reconfigurable architecture based on context and content information
2018
5G networks will have to offer extremely high volumes of content, compared to those of today’s. Moreover, they will have to support heterogeneous traffics, including machine-to-machine, generated by a massive volume of Internet-of-Things devices. Traffic demands will be variable in time and space. In this work, we argue that all this can be achieved in a cost-effective way if the network is flexible and reconfigurable. We present the Flex5Gware network architecture, designed to meet the above requirements. Moreover, we discuss the links between flexibility and reconfigurability, on the one side, and context awareness and content awareness, on the other; we show how two of the building…
La delimitación del concepto de daño moral: un estudio de la cuestión en el ordenamiento jurídico español.
2021
El presente estudio tiene como objetivo realizar una aproximación al concepto de daño moral en el derecho español porque, a diferencia del daño patrimonial, el Código Civil no proporciona un concepto sobre él. Para la articulación de un concepto de daño moral es necesario analizar los supuestos de reconocimiento legal, la interpretación que los órganos judiciales han hecho y el tratamiento proporcionado en los Principios de derecho contractual europeo y de derecho de daños europeo. El trabajo finaliza con una valoración sobre la actual configuración del daño moral. The present study aims to make an approximation to the concept of non-pecuniary damage in Spanish law because, unlike property …
Genesi geometrica delle volte centriche
1996
Un'analisi completa degli organismi voltati comporta lo studio delle molteplici componenti necessarie alla loro definizione: configurazione geometrica, sistema costruttivo, area storico-geografica di appartenenza, interpretazioni Stilistiche. L’obiettivo di questo studio è indirizzato all' analisi delle volte continue su pianta centrica definibili attraverso le leggi della geometria euclidea. L’indagine si pone all'interno dei confini relativi alla loro configurazione geometrica e il criterio adottato, svincolato da classificazioni di carattere tipologico o stilistico, propone l'identificazione di famiglie geometriche in base alla figura del poligono di base dell'impianto. Si può identifica…
Quando i corpi svelano lo spazio
2020
Living means transfiguring the place and loading it with meanings that transcend its pure objectivity, allowing our body to feel itself among "its things", close to itself. The path of "transfiguration" inherent in living interprets the complementarity between man and his environment and reveals the poetic capacity of architecture. Thus, it may be interesting to understand how the interaction between body and space can make us regain possession of the most problematic places, within a mental and transcendent dimension.
Vertical spectrum of ethene: uncontracted versus contracted correlation methods and the role of the adapted molecular orbitals
1998
Abstract Ethylene vertical excitation energies (VEE) below 9.5 eV have been calculated with the complete active-space singles and doubles configuration interaction self-consistent size-consistent dressing (SC) 2 CAS–SDCI. The mean of the absolute deviation from experiment for the calculated VEE are 0.14, 0.05 and 0.03 eV for three different molecular orbital (MO) sets tried. The results show that an uncontracted method and a realistic MO set avoid the difficulties present in the calculation of the strongly mixed Rydberg-valence 1B 1u states.
Assisted baseline subtraction in complex chromatograms using the BEADS algorithm.
2017
The data processing step of complex signals in high-performance liquid chromatography may constitute a bottleneck to obtain significant information from chromatograms. Data pre-processing should be preferably done with little (or no) user supervision, for a maximal benefit and highest speed. In this work, a tool for the configuration of a state-of-the-art baseline subtraction algorithm, called BEADS (Baseline Estimation And Denoising using Sparsity) is developed and verified. A quality criterion based on the measurement of the autocorrelation level was designed to select the most suitable working parameters to obtain the best baseline. The use of a log transformation of the signal attenuate…
Knowledge Discovery from Network Logs
2015
Modern communications networks are complex systems, which facilitates malicious behavior. Dynamic web services are vulnerable to unknown intrusions, but traditional cyber security measures are based on fingerprinting. Anomaly detection differs from fingerprinting in that it finds events that differ from the baseline traffic. The anomaly detection methodology can be modelled with the knowledge discovery process. Knowledge discovery is a high-level term for the whole process of deriving actionable knowledge from databases. This article presents the theory behind this approach, and showcases research that has produced network log analysis tools and methods. peerReviewed
Enantiospecific Brook Rearrangement of Tertiary Benzylic α-Hydroxysilanes
2018
The Brook rearrangement of simple, chiral tertiary benzylic -hydroxysilanes is presented. The rearrangement followed by proton trapping is enantiospecific and proceeds with inversion of the configuration at the carbon center. Importantly, the [1,2]-Brook rearrangement can be followed by trapping of methyl or allyl electrophiles even in the protic environment, although with minimal retention of chirality.
