Conclusion: Hospitality in the New Millennium
2017
The main thesis held here is that Western civilization has subscribed to a medical / surgical metaphor, which consists in extirpating the affected part to save the body. If this is applied in the case of terrorism, the Muslim community runs serious risk of being demonized and martyrized in the name of security.
Energy Harvesting-Aware Backoff Algorithms for Distributed Device-to-Device Communication
2016
Due to limited energy capacity in mobile devices, energy harvesting is regarded as a promising technology for lifetime extension in device-to-device (D2D) communication. However, medium access control (MAC) protocols designed for D2D communication intrinsically do not consider the existence of harvested energy. In this paper we study four backoff (BO) algorithms, among which one algorithm is proposed to enhance the BO selection based on energy harvesting rate and residual energy of devices. Simulations are performed in order to assess how the proposed algorithm can extend the lifetime of a D2D communication network as well as to provide fair channel access opportunities among devices.
Magister : revista de formación del profesorado e investigación educativa
2016
La competencia colaborativa es una herramienta muy útil para el alumnado universitario. La diversidad de ámbitos profesionales que existen hoy en día demanda unos trabajadores competentes que se adapten a una realidad laboral compleja y cambiante. En este sentido, las relaciones interpersonales cobran gran importancia al requerir la colaboración entre profesionales para conseguir un objetivo final. El presente artículo describe una propuesta de trabajo colaborativo que se llevó a cabo con el alumnado universitario del cuarto curso de Magisterio de la Universitat de València que cursaban el itinerario de especialización en Educación Musical. Collaborative competition is a very useful tool fo…
A unified radio control architecture for prototyping adaptive wireless protocols
2016
Experimental optimization of wireless protocols and validation of novel solutions is often problematic, due to limited configuration space present in commercial wireless interfaces as well as complexity of monolithic driver implementation on SDR-based experimentation platforms. To overcome these limitations a novel software architecture is proposed, called WiSHFUL, devised to allow: i) maximal exploitation of radio functionalities available in current radio chips, and ii) clean separation between the logic for optimizing the radio protocols (i.e. radio control) and the definition of these protocols.
The Globalization of Fear
2017
In this chapter, we combine the advances of other disciplines to expand our understanding of terrorism and the fields of emotions. In this respect, as L. Howie puts it, the media industry engendered a culture of witnessing which not only is conducive to terrorism, but enlarged fear to other continents. The globalization of fear operates in a new field which is based on what Baudrillard named ‘the spectacle of disaster’. Though this vicious circle between the spectatorship of disaster and terrorism not to be broken, the problem is far from being solved. Terrorism and 9/11 as founding event ignited a new stage of capitalism which Korstanje called ‘Thana-Capitalism’. Unlike modern sociologist …
From the Risk Society to Thana Capitalism
2021
The current paper focused on the spectatularization of disasters as the main commodity thana capitalism exchanges. The discussion around the crimes against mankind perpetrated by Nazis in the clandestine concentration camps opened the doors towards new insights respecting the roots of thana capitalism. Nazis violated human rights secreting their crimes in a moment of the world where millions certainly died. Today´s philosophers are shocked to see how Auschwitz-Birkenau, which was the sanctuary of the horrors of the Second World War, sets the pace to a new allegory, intended to entertain thousands of tourists, many of them unfamiliar with these events. As a highly-demanded tourist destinatio…
Periodismo de viajes e innovación en la red. Perfiles, apuesta y motivación de los bloggers
2017
Bidaia-kazetaritzak erabateko eklosioa izan du sarean azken hamarkada honetan; gai horri buruzko milaka blog sortu dira. Mezu honetan, aztertzen da blog horien sustatzaileak nor diren, zer gai-mota lantzen dituzten, eta kazetaritzaren arloko ekintzailetza-ekimentzat ote dauzkaten. Horretarako, inkesta bat egin da, online, 35 galderakoa, bost ataletan sailkatuta. Emaitzetan ikusten denez, inkestari erantzun dioten blogarietan gehienak kazetaritzaren arlotik kanpokoak dira eta, proiektuari afizio moduan ekin bazioten ere, diruz etekina ateratzea lortu dute erdiek.; The online travel journalism has experienced a boom in the last decade, with the emergence of thousands of blogs devoted to this …
Let the countdown begin — Aging experiences of young adults in countdown blogs
2012
Abstract This paper examines a particular blog phenomenon that has not yet received much attention: Countdown blogs which are written before a significant birthday (in this paper, it is the thirtieth birthday). The bloggers fill the remaining time, often a year, with the accomplishment of particular tasks, reflections on their lives or photo projects. In their blogs, the young adults demonstrate an age awareness that is often overlooked in aging studies. The paper argues that young adults use countdown blogs to cope with their aging experiences and, in doing so, they apply a particular economic rhetoric and emerge as entrepreneurs of themselves – an identity concept that Foucault presented …

The image of the candidates in the 2019 General Elections in Spain
2019
[Resumen] Las Elecciones Generales de 1977 en España obligaron a los partidos a explicar cuestiones elementales como “qué significaba votar”. En general, la imagen proyectada de los candidatos era una cuestión “menor”, dada la falta de cultura democrática del momento. Tras 42 años desde la transición, el contexto político y comunicativo ha dado un vuelco que exige de una aproximación más compleja. Los partidos políticos son conscientes de la importancia que tiene construir la imagen pública de sus candidatos. En este trabajo analizamos la imagen del principal cartel de campaña de los candidatos a presidente en las Elecciones Generales de abril de 2019 de Vox, PP, C’s, PSOE, UP y del candida…
