Nanodevices by DNA based gold nanostructures
2017
In this thesis DNA based structures were utilized to create gold nanostructures for nanosensing and nanoelectronic applications. In the past, both of these fields have been dominated by the conventional lithography methods, e.g., electron beam lithography and UV-lithography, but more recently scaling down the components by these techniques has become increasingly more complex and costly. Especially in the micro- and nanoelectronics, the increase in the component density and thus computational power would require fabrication of sub-10-nm components, which is challenging for the top-down approaches. Aforementioned developments have led researchers to seek alternative methods to fabricate these…
The Forecasts of the Witches: the State of Exception in Planning Practices
2015
Agamben argues that the state of exception is not a special kind of law, but it is a zone of anomie, where all legal determinations are deactivated (Agamben, 2005: 50). Conditions of exception do not just occur when a hegemonic power poses itself above the law; they also occur when laws are made in order to exercise control and subjection. Agamben’s state of exception theory describes those contexts where the circumvention of laws and suspension of norms do occur, having as result the production and reproduction of spatial areas as zones which are characterized by a void of law. These phenomena can be found not just in the case of occupying or hegemonic powers, but also in the Western Europ…

Estudio de las bases de la resistencia a las proteínas insecticidas de bacillus thuringiensis en ostrinia nubilalis
2013
Ostrinia nubilalis (Hübner) es una de las plagas más devastadoras de los cultivos de maíz de Europa y Norte América, y a nivel económico la obtención de un control eficaz de esta plaga es un logro fundamental. En 1996, se permitió la comercialización de las plantas transgénicas que llevan insertado en el genoma un gen procedente de Bacillus thuringiensis (Berliner) (Bt) y que codifica para una proteína insecticida de las que esta bacteria produce en forma de cristales paraesporales (proteínas Cry). A partir de esta fecha, la adopción de los cultivos de maíz Bt que expresan en concreto la toxina Cry1Ab ha ido aumentando progresivamente en todo el mundo, con el resultado de que las pérdidas e…
Multi-agent control architecture for RFID cyberphysical robotic systems initial validation of tagged objects detection and identification using Playe…
2016
International audience; The objective of this paper is to describe and validate a multi-agent architecture proposed to control RFID Cyber-Physical Robotic Systems. This environment may contain human operators, robots (mobiles, manipulators, mobile manipulators, etc.), places (workrooms, walls, etc.) and other objects (tables, chairs, etc.). The proposed control architecture is composed of two types of agents dispatched on two levels. We find at the Organization level a Supervisory agent to allow operators to configure, manage and interact with the overall control system. At the Control level, we distinguish the Robots agents, to each robot (mobiles, manipulators or mobile manipulators) is a…
BAS: Finanšu instrumentu manipulatīvie un aizdomīgie darījumi
2016
Kvalifikācijas darbs “BAS: Finanšu instrumentu manipulatīvie un aizdomīgie darījumi” apraksta moduli, kas izstrādāts bankas brokeru sistēmas BAS funkcionalitātes papildināšanai. Tā mērķis ir konstatēt bankas kontos notiekošos manipulatīvos un aizdomīgos darījumus ar finanšu instrumentiem. Tas darbosies importējot iepriekš speciāli sagatavotu izklājlapu failu ar laukiem, kas sagatavoti Bloomberg platformā. Balstoties uz šo failu, tiks salīdzināti dati ar BAS datubāzi un veicot analīzi, aizdomīgie darījumi attēloti vienas vai divu tabulu veidā sistēmas saskarnē, kolonnās norādot kādi no noteiktajiem aizdomīgo darījumu faktoriem izpildījušies atbilstošajam FI.

Parasite-induced aggression and impaired contest ability in a fish host
2010
Abstract Background Success of trophically transmitted parasites depends to a great extent on their ability to manipulate their intermediate hosts in a way that makes them easier prey for target hosts. Parasite-induced behavioural changes are the most spectacular and diverse examples of manipulation. Most of the studies have been focused on individual behaviour of hosts including fish. We suggest that agonistic interactions and territoriality in fish hosts may affect their vulnerability to predators and thus the transmission efficiency of trophically transmitted parasites. The parasite Diplostomum spathaceum (Trematoda) and juvenile rainbow trout, Oncorhynchus mykiss, were used to study whe…
Sesgo y encuadre en las noticias de TV : mecanismos de manipulación periodística a propósito del urbanismo y del agua en los informativos de Canal 9
2008
La Tesis verifica los mecanismos de manipulación periodística puestos en juego en los informativos de la cadena de televisión pública regional Canal 9, en el tratamiento de dos temas de actualidad, el urbanismo y el agua, que fueron significativos políticamente en el ámbito valenciano durante los meses anteriores a las elecciones autonómicas de 2007. La pretensión del estudio fue considerar desde la perspectiva académica, la controvertida manipulación repetidamente denunciada por profesionales, ciudadanos y partidos políticos por afectar a un medio de comunicación público, obligado por Ley a proporcionar información plural e independiente. En el marco teórico se adopta la noción de sesgo qu…

Manipulation and control in couple relationships. A study of young women.
2016
The term gaslighting refers to a typology of psychological abuse that is expressed through acts of manipulation, which tend to control a partner’s mental and affective state. The aim of the present study was to assess the presence of gaslighting behaviour as sustained by a group of young women in their relational experiences as a couple. Moreover, the associations between frequency of gaslighting behaviour and specific maladaptive personality traits, were evaluated. One hundred women, aged from 19 to 30 years (M=22,5; ds=3,14) participated in this research study. Manipulation and/or control behaviour were evaluated by administrating 25 descriptions of three typologies of gaslighter (glamour…
