On Daugavet indices of thickness
2020
Inspired by R. Whitley's thickness index the last named author recently introduced the Daugavet index of thickness of Banach spaces. We continue the investigation of the behavior of this index and also consider two new versions of the Daugavet index of thickness, which helps us solve an open problem which connect the Daugavet indices with the Daugavet equation. Moreover, we will improve the formerly known estimates of the behavior of Daugavet index on direct sums of Banach spaces by establishing sharp bounds. As a consequence of our results we prove that, for every $0<\delta<2$, there exists a Banach space where the infimum of the diameter of convex combinations of slices of the unit ball i…
Las prioridades de la investigación en los campus europeos
2011
[ES] Frente a la globalización, la internacionalización de la universidad es una parte esencial de la solución como factor para su desarrollo sostenible a través de estrategias de innovación abierta y por tanto una prioridad en los campus europeos bien contemplada en la reciente Ley de la Ciencia y los Campus de Excelencia Internacional como parte de la Estrategia Universidad 2015. El acceso a la financiación pública competitiva disponible en los fondos europeos es importante en términos de prioridades de investigación, precisamente en un contexto restrictivo de financiación nacional y autonómica. La atracción internacional de talento y posicionarnos en las grandes áreas de investigación pe…
La responsabilidad social de las universidades a través de la memoria cinematográfica
2013
[ES] Este artículo rescata una interesante película británica filmada en 1983 por Lewis Gilbert, "Educando a Rita", referencia fiel a la memoria de los inicios de la Open University, a su espíritu de innovación educativa, pionera en la educación universitaria a distancia en Europa. La cinta explora temas relevantes relativos a la educación superior y susceptibles de análisis en al menos cuatro dimensiones: la cultura de la institución universitaria, la profesionalidad docente, la metodología de enseñanza y el papel del alumnado en los estudios superiores. Las dimensiones consideradas requieren de un elemento posibilitador, de reflexión curricular: la orientación de los planes de estudio. El…
Characterization of a new member of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus hsp70 gene family and its expression
1992
We have sequenced a second gene of the hsp70 family derived from a genomic clone of the sea urchin, Paracentrotus lividus. The structure of this gene, named hsp70IV gene, is interrupted by one intron and differs from the previously analyzed sea urchin hsp70II gene, which contains several introns. Two open reading frames of hsp70IV gene encode a predicted protein of 639 amino acids with an M(r) of 69,672. The 5' flanking region of the gene contains a putative TATA element, three heat-shock elements made up of some arrays of the 5-bp units, NGAAN and NTTCN (N = A,C,G or T), a canonic consensus sequence for binding of the regulatory activating transcription factor (ATF), and a purine box. The …
Nucleotide sequence of a ssRNA phage from Acinetobacter: kinship to coliphages.
2002
The complete nucleotide sequence of ssRNA phage AP205 propagating in Acinetobacter species is reported. The RNA has three large ORFs, which code for the following homologues of the RNA coliphage proteins: the maturation, coat and replicase proteins. Their gene order is the same as that in coliphages. RNA coliphages or Leviviridae fall into two genera: the alloleviviruses, like Qβ, which have a coat read-through protein, and the leviviruses, like MS2, which do not have this coat protein extension. AP205 has no read-through protein and may therefore be classified as a levivirus. A major digression from the known leviviruses is the apparent absence of a lysis gene in AP205 at the usual positio…
A sequence element downstream of the yeast HTB1 gene contributes to mRNA 3' processing and cell cycle regulation.
2002
Histone mRNAs accumulate in the S phase and are rapidly degraded as cells progress into the G(2) phase of the cell cycle. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, fusion of the 3' untranslated region and downstream sequences of the yeast histone gene HTB1 to a neomycin phosphotransferase open reading frame is sufficient to confer cell cycle regulation on the resulting chimera gene (neo-HTB1). We have identified a sequence element, designated the distal downstream element (DDE), that influences both the 3'-end cleavage site selection and the cell cycle regulation of the neo-HTB1 mRNA. Mutations in the DDE, which is located approximately 110 nucleotides downstream of the HTB1 gene, lead to a delay in the…
The Hybrid Block as Urban Form
2018
The Hybrid Block as Urban Form Javier Pérez Igualada Escuela Técnica Superior de Arquitectura, Universitat Politécnica de València. Camino de Vera, s/n. 46022 Valencia. E-mail: jperezi@urb.pv.es Keywords: Hybrid Block, Urban Form, Mixed Use Buildings, Open Planning Conference topics and scale: Urban form and social use of space In this paper we analyze the hybrid block as an urban form of synthesis, in which the open order of modern urbanism is superimposed on the closed order of traditional urbanism. In this model, proposed for the first time by Hilberseimer in his 1927 Vertical City, housing and work are not separated but overlapping on mixed-use buildings, where the dwellings are loc…

Understanding urban policy through the lens of twenty years of cohesion policy: the case of Palermo
2017
For many European cities the EU’s structural funds have led to a radical review of the way of approaching urban policy at different scales. For many others, particularly within the less developed regions, they also have resulted in a unique financial opportunity to carry out large infrastructural interventions as well as complex regeneration projects. After two decades of experiments, it is worth questioning to which extent the structural funds have impacted on the state of the European cities and whether Europanisation has promoted a real process of innovation in the making of urban policy. With this question on the background, this paper provides a critical analysis of the evolution of ur…
VANET prototipa realizācija ar WiFi protokolu palīdzību
2016
VANET tehnoloģija ļauj automobiļiem savā starpā komunicēt un informēt vienam otru par bīstamām situācijām uz ceļa. Veicot ES ceļu satiksmes negadījumu skaitu izpēti ir redzams, kā ir nepieciešama sistēma, kas spēj atbalstīt automobiļa vadītājus ceļā. Maģistra darba pētījuma mērķis ir izpētīt VANET tehnoloģiju, tās aktualitāti un iespējas, un izstrādājot prototipu izdarīt pētījumu, kurā pēc eksperimentu rezultātiem varēs izdarīt secinājumu, vai WiFi protokols spēj realizēt VANET tehnoloģiju nepieciešamā apjomā. Maģistra darbs sadalīts deviņās nodaļās. Darba pirmajā daļā tiek apskatīta un pētīta teorētiskā daļa, bet otrajā daļā tiek izveidots WiFi prototips un veikti eksperimenti. Maģistra da…
