Logic, Computing and Biology
2015
Logic and Computing are appropriate formal languages for Biology, and we may well be surprised by the strong analogy between software and DNA, and between hardware and the protein machinery of the cell. This chapter examines to what extent any biological entity can be described by an algorithm and, therefore, whether the Turing machine and the halting problem concepts apply. Last of all, I introduce the concepts of recursion and algorithmic complexity, both from the field of computer science, which can help us understand and conceptualise biological complexity.

Hygiene and Eating Healthy Habits and Practices in Spanish Families with Children Aged 6 to 14.
2020
During childhood and pre-adolescence, the family environment is key to initiating and consolidating healthy styles in children through a balanced diet and basic hygiene habits. This study analyses hygiene, nutrition and health practices in Spanish families with children between 6 and 14 years of age according to the type of family (nuclear, single-parent or reconstituted) and the quantity, age and gender of the children. A representative Spanish national sample of 1103 Spanish parents, 270 fathers and 833 mothers, with children aged 6 to 14, is analysed. The study is descriptive, using statistical techniques with classic indicators (means, percentages). The results show that nuclear familie…
Reduction of UML Class Diagrams
2002
One and the same “real world” can be modeled by different UML class diagrams, which in such a case can be considered “intuitively equivalent”. A formalization of this “intuitive equivalence” of class diagrams is proposed. An algorithm is constructed that for two class diagrams determines if they model the same “real world”. This algorithm can be used in CASE tools to compare alternative models of a system, and for diagram “compression” to facilitate understanding of large diagrams.
Dona, pobra, mare i fadrina contra l?autoritat moral. El procés inquisitorial d?Àgueda Guimerà (1804)
2020
Resum: En 1804, el Tribunal de la Inquisició vivia els seus darrers moments. Lluny de les grans persecucions inicials contra jueus i moriscos, el Sant Ofici semblava llanguir, però sense dubte, tot i que amb menys força que en temps passats, encara era un instrument formidable de repressió. En aquest context, Àgueda Guimerà, mare soltera, i per això criticada i maltractada, va haver de fer front a una denúncia per calúmnies per part del seu confessor en què en tot moment plana la sospita del delicte de sol·licitació en acte de confessióParaules clau: Inquisició, conducta moral, dona soltera, segle XIX, sol·licitacióAbstract: In 1804, the Court of the Inquisition was living its last moments.…
Aportaciones documentales sobre cruces de orfebrería valencianas. Siglos XIV y XV
2020
The article intends to make a contribution of new documentary references, from the notarial funds of the Valencian archives, in which news about parish crosses and Lignum Crucis from the silversmith center of Valencia during the fourteenth and fifteenth centuries are collected. The importance of these typologies lies in being the main elements of Christian worship, so it was an essential piece in each parish that allowed the provision in them of models of varied typology and functionality; for that reason they are conserved from altar crosses, cross-shaped reliquaries ?known as Lignum Crucis or Veracruz ?to processional crosses, larger and representative of the parish community to which it …
Filtering usability data with reference to behavior
2011
No company can stay in business without having a "useful" web presence. The question is how usefullnes can be achieved. Usefullnes in this sense is how attractive and useful it is for the visitors. This can be done by observing the visitors' behavior. Doing this through interviews and observation of users in their living rooms is expensive and in many cases even impractical. So, other means need to be found. This paper presents a tool for the evaluation of usefulness of a web presence by extracting and analyzing information out of its log files. The information extraction can be refined using a set of filters which can be arbitrarily combined by the usability engineer responsible for mainta…
Parents and nurses in a neonatal intensive care unit: the development of a mutual beneficial partnership in the care of the infant
2009
Ph.D. Thesis, University of Oslo - Faculty of Medicine, Institute of Health and Society ”Foreldre og sykepleiere på en nyfødtavdeling - utvikling av et likeverdig partnerskap i omsorgen for barnet” Studien viser hvor viktig det er umiddelbart å involvere foreldre i omsorgen for det premature barnet, og at ansvar avklares ved at sykepleier og foreldre i fellesskap blir enige om hvordan, på hvilke områder og i hvilken grad foreldre ønsker å delta. Etter fødselen og når barnet er akutt sykt vil sykepleier ta hovedansvaret mens foreldre oppfordres til å være til stede og gi barnet fysisk kontakt. Studien viser hvor krevende starten oppleves for foreldrene, og at sykepleiers tidlige involvering …
Remote service usage through SIP with multimedia access as a use case
2007
The IP Multimedia Subsystem is under deployment, as an IP-based service control and access infrastructure, but how it interconnects with residential appliances is currently unclear. With IMS access for the residential appliances they can be used as both service consumers and service providers. In this paper we present a protocol which allows residential services to be remotely invoked, through the IMS, and consumed in a different network, along with a prototype implementation and early results. With our protocol services of two distinct service protocol systems can cooperate.
