Session details: Distributed systems: WT - web technologies track
2018
The Web is relentlessly evolving. Once a single interconnection of static, physically distributed content passively accessed by human users through personal computers, during the explosion of Web-based social networks the Web evolved into an environment allowing users worldwide to interact and collaborate to create user-generated content within many virtual communities. In this line, Web 2.0 is the umbrella term used to encompass several developments which followed, namely social networking sites and social media sites (e.g., Facebook), blogs, wikis, folksonomies (e.g. Flickr), video sharing sites (e.g., YouTube), Web applications ("apps"), collaborative platforms, and mashup applications. …

The Alignment of Membrane-Active Peptides Depends on the Lipid Phase State as Viewed by solid state 19F-NMR
2009
Amphipathic membrane-active peptides (antimicrobial, hemolytic, cell-penetrating, fusogenic, etc.) achieve their functions by distinct interaction with lipid bilayers. Some typical structural modes are described in terms of models like the “barrel stave”, “toroidal pore”, “carpet” etc. These models are related to the alignment states of the peptides in the lipid bilayers (surface bound “S-state”, inserted “I-state” or tilted “T-state”), which can be readily characterized by solid state NMR. When determining such alignment, factors like peptide/lipid ratio, charge of the bilayer surface, thickness of the bilayer core, presence of cholesterol, and humidity are typically investigated. Yet, the…
Mitochondrial function in liver disease.
2006
Oxidative stress is involved in the pathogenesis and progression of different liver diseases, such as alcoholic liver disease and biliary cirrhosis. The increased mitochondrial production of O2(-) at complexes I and III, and consequently of H2O2 and other reactive oxygen species (ROS), triggered by NADH overproduction seems the major cause of mitochondrial and cellular oxidative stress and damage in chronic alcoholism. The mitochondrial oxidative stress renders hepatocytes susceptible to ethanol- or acetaldehyde-induced mitochondrial membrane permeability transition (MMPT) and apoptosis. Nitrosative stress contributes to cell death by peroxynitrite formation. The expression of the death rec…
Retinal function assessment in alcohol use disorder patients
2019
Objective. Retinal injury induced by ethanol consumption has been previously reported in animal models, including biochemical, histological and functional alterations. These results need to be clinically tested in alcoholic patients which do not report several systemic or ophthalmic diseases. Methods. Six patients with alcohol use disorder were recruited from an ‘Alcoholism Treatment Unit’. All of them with active alcohol consumption when the study was conducted or that had stopped drinking six months prior to the study, with no ocular disease or visual acuity alterations. All patients underwent fundus photography, optical coherence tomography (OCT) as well as visual field test. Electrophys…

Let me in. Visioni architettoniche per habitat multispecie
2020
I disegni di Alessandro Melis sono lo spunto per una descrizione interpretativa, orientata a mettere in luce l’espressione di un nuovo rapporto fra uomo e non umani come tema dell’architettura contemporanea. L’immaginario che agisce nei disegni esaminati predispone, come sempre in architettura, lo scenario di fondo cui prepararsi per i reali interventi disciplinari. La ripresa degli organi zoomorfi o delle macchine tecno-sensoriali di Coop Himmel(b)lau, a loro volta eco delle prime introduzioni di Archigram, del bowellism di Frederick Kiesler, dei sistemi viventi di Hans Hollein, prolunga nel contemporaneo l’eco di una ricerca di apertura del campo disciplinare. La novità, nella frontiera v…
Conectores y secuencias didácticas en primer ciclo de educación primaria
2017
El punto de partida con el que iniciamos este artículo relaciona la enseñanza de elementos gramaticales, como los conectores, con la producción textual de escolares de segundo curso de Educación Primaria. En la investigación, que se lleva a cabo en aula, se elige como dispositivo una secuencia didáctica inspirada en el modelo de la escuela de Ginebra. La mediación elegida demuestra que resulta posible y eficaz introducir estos saberes gramaticales desde el inicio de la escolarización y que estos elementos ayudan, junto con el resto de la intervención, a mejorar los textos de los niños. Para ello aportamos el análisis de la producción inicial y final de un alumno y los resultados obtenidos d…
TWO-DIMENSIONAL FINITE STATE RECOGNIZABILITY
1996
The purpose of this paper is to investigate about a new notion of finite state recognizability for two-dimensional (picture) languages. This notion takes as starting point the characterization of one-dimensional recognizable languages in terms of local languages and projections. Such notion can be extended in a natural way to the two-dimensional case. We first introduce a notion of local picture language and then we define,a recognizable picture language as a projection of a local picture language. The family of recognizable picture languages is denoted by REC. We study some combinatorial and language-theoretic properties of family REC. In particular we prove some closure properties with re…
Nonsmooth Optimization Methods
1999
From the previous chapters we know that after the discretization, elliptic and parabolic hemivariational inequalities can be transformed into substationary point type problems for locally Lipschitz superpotentials and as such will be solved. There is a class of mathematical programming methods especially developed for this type of problems. The aim of this chapter is to give an overview of nonsmooth optimization techniques with special emphasis on the first and the second order bundle methods. We present their basic ideas in the convex case and necessary modifications for nonconvex optimization. We shall use them in the next chapter for the numerical realization of several model examples. L…
