Institutional Contexts, the Management of Patent Portfolios, and the Role of Public Policies Supporting New Entrepreneurial Ventures
2009
The paper aims to increase our understanding of the relationships between firm strategies, the design of institutional contexts on behalf of public agents, and the stimulation of diffused entrepreneurship within the economic system. In particular, it analyzes the way in which firm patent portfolio management strategies may systematically hinder the emergence of entrepreneurial endeavours within the economic system and, on this basis, critically discusses how the acknowledgement of these interactions should influence the design of public policies at the economic system level.
Institutional Entrepreneurship, Trust, and Regulatory Capture in the Digital Economy
2019
In regard to the problem of the new markets' opening and their regulation, some scholars have introduced the concept of “institutional entrepreneur” in economic literature. This new definition of entrepreneur is important to highlight, albeit in informal and descriptive terms, the existence of functional relationships between activities typical of private market competition and those more specifically, of the public sector. Even if this new economic character can provide an interesting key to understanding what can really happen in the narrow zone that separates the public and private markets, it does not consider some conceptual components that are not minor for the purposes of complete ch…
1989 02. IVAM Centre Julio González. Ciprià Císcar y el poder de la cultura
2014
Una de las obras más emblemáticas de la etapa de los socialistas en el Gobierno de la Generalitat, en los años 80, es la creación del Instituto Valenciano de Arte Moderno IVAM Centre Julio González. El proyecto nace de la idea del conseller de Cultura, Educación y Ciencia, Ciprià Císcar Casabán, de dotar de una red de museos a la Comunidad Valenciana: el San Pio V, el IVAM, y el Centro del Carmen para exposiciones actuales, entre otros proyectos culturales. La creación del IVAM será uno de los proyectos estrella del Consell, que prestigiaran al conseller Císcar por lo que ha significado para la sociedad y los artistas valencianos. La concepción del IVAM era la de incorporar a Valencia en la…
Instrucción en estrategias de comprensión lectora mediante enseñanza recíproca: efectos del agrupamiento de los estudiantes
2013
The aim of this study was to compare the effects of two grouping formats on the reading comprehension. Reading comprehension Instruction used reciprocal teaching (RT) that is an instructional procedure to teach students cognitive strategies that might lead to improved reading comprehension. A sample of 43 students in the fourth year of primary education was selected: 18 children were instructed in regular classroom (GG), 8 were instructed in small group (PG), while the remaining 17 made up the comparison group (GC). Two types of comprehension measures were used: tasks of specific effects (getting the main idea, comprehension-monitoring test) and transfer effect measures (standardized test, …
Spatially chaotic configurations and functional equations with rescaling
1996
The functional equation is associated with the appearance of spatially chaotic structures in amorphous (glassy) materials. Continuous compactly supported solutions of the above equation are of special interest. We shall show that there are no such solutions for , whereas such a solution exists for almost all . The words `for almost all q' in the previous sentence cannot be omitted. There are exceptional values of q in the interval for which there are no integrable solutions. For example, , which is the reciprocal of the `golden ratio' is such an exceptional value. More generally, if is any Pisot - Vijayaraghavan number, or any Salem number, then is an exceptional value.

A Saturation Avoidance Technique for Peer-to-Peer Distributed Virtual Environments
2007
This paper presents a multi-agent framework oriented to animate groups of synthetic humans that properly balance task-oriented and social behaviors. We mainly focus on the social model designed for BDI-agents to display socially acceptable decisions. This model is based on an auction mechanism used to coordinate the group activities derived from the character's roles. The model also introduces reciprocity relations between the members of a group and allows the agents to include social tasks to produce realistic behavioral animations. Furthermore, a conversational library provides the set of plans to manage social interactions and to animate from simple chats to more complex negotiations. Th…
Lifelong Learning: international injunctions and university practices
2001
JEAN-PIERRE JALLADE & JOSE´-GINE´S MORAIntroductionThe aim of this article is to elucidate whether the international discourse onlifelong learning (LLL) had any influence on what universities are doing in thisfield. International trends will be examined on the basis of OECD, UNESCO,EU and Council of Europe policy documents. University practice will be based onan enquiry carried out in 28 universities in seven European countries in 1999–2000 in the framework of the project Lifelong Learning and the University,sponsored by the EU/DG 12.Between the international policy discourse and university practice stands thenational layer of policy-making, giving rise to two interesting issues: first, don…
Reciprocal vs nonreciprocal trade agreements: Which have been best to promote exports?
2019
The Doha Development Agenda recognizes the central role that international trade can play in the promotion of economic development. In fact, the increase of exports from developing countries to developed nations' markets has been considered a key element for developing countries to realize the potential benefits of globalization. Over the last decades, developed countries have provided preferential access to their markets to developing countries through nonreciprocal trade agreements. Moreover, developing countries have also participated in reciprocal trade agreements. This paper re-examines comparatively the effect of both kinds of trade agreements on exports from developing countries but …
Community-driven computational biology with Debian Linux
2011
Background The Open Source movement and its technologies are popular in the bioinformatics community because they provide freely available tools and resources for research. In order to feed the steady demand for updates on software and associated data, a service infrastructure is required for sharing and providing these tools to heterogeneous computing environments. Results The Debian Med initiative provides ready and coherent software packages for medical informatics and bioinformatics. These packages can be used together in Taverna workflows via the UseCase plugin to manage execution on local or remote machines. If such packages are available in cloud computing environments, the underlyin…
