Cloud Sourcing and Paradigm Shift in IT Governance: Evidence from the Financial Sector
2020
In the digital age, organizations are increasingly shifting their applications, services and infrastructures to the cloud to enhance business agility and reduce IT-related costs. However, in moving applications and data to cloud resources organizations face new risks of privacy violations. To manage this risk, organizations need to be fully aware of threats and vulnerabilities affecting their digital re-sources in cloud. Although some previous studies have focused on the emerging challenges of cloud adoption to governance and control, we know little regarding the paradigm shifts in IT governance processes and practices. To address this gap, we conducted an exploratory case study in two larg…
Eines web per a l'elaboració del Treball Final de Grau i Màster en Enginyeria Química
2014
La necessitat d'un gran volum d'informació per a l'elaboració de projectes de caràcter professional en Enginyeria Química pot esdevenir un greu problema en aquells casos en els quals el projecte ha de ser preparat pels alumnes per al seu Treball Fi de Grau o Treball Fi de Màster, ja que la consecució d'aquesta informació és complicada i implica, en moltes ocasions, una despesa econòmica important. Per resoldre aquest problema, l'objectiu d'aquest article és subministrar a l'estudiant eines web de lliure accés que li permeten tenir informació relativa a les parts del projecte que ha d'elaborar. Per a fer-ho s'ha realitzat una anàlisi dels camps en els quals l'estudiant necessita informació i…
Desarrollo de competencias profesionales en biomedicina utilizando el aprendizaje basado en proyectos
2019
[EN] Professional competences in the field of experimental sciences are acquired through the practice of professional practice. In the university environment, the knowledge, skills and abilities in the different undergraduate subjects are taught in a parceled manner. Our 45 students biotechnology studies in Catholic University of Valencia, during the internship repeat protolocos and follow a recipe to perform an experiment that exemplifies the fundamental contents of the subject being taught. The aboradaje of this work is based on project-based learning. The student has to elaborate a biotechnological project from beginning to end. The project is based on the construction of a non-viral vec…
Un proyecto de biología sintética para la motivación y aprendizaje de los estudiantes del primer curso del Grado en Biotecnología.
2020
[ES] En el presente trabajo presentamos un proyecto de biología sintética de nivel profesional adaptado a estudiantes de primer curso. Describimos las adaptaciones necesarias para hacerlo asequible para unas prácticas de laboratorio, tanto a nivel pedagógico como en cuanto a la viabilidad económica de los materiales utilizados. El proyecto pretende la motivación de los estudiantes del Grado en Biotecnología mediante la introducción temprana de la actividad profesional real en biomedicina, así como la adquisición de una serie de competencias del trabajo práctico en el laboratorio imprescindibles para el biotecnólogo en formación.
El descubrimiento de nuevos fármacos, concepto umbral en farmacología.
2021
[EN] The so-called “threshold concepts” are present in all areas of study. Its acquisition by the student represents a milestone in the advancement of the conceptual understanding of a subject. They are often difficult to learn, but when they are overcome they generate a reconceptualization that allows progress and deepening in the subject of study. We present an activity designed to develop a key threshold concept in pharmacology, the drug discovery process. To do this, we develop a practical laboratory project that will integrate both the extraction and search for active ingredients and the simulation of some aspects of their clinical trials in the phase I.

Sicilian Mountain municipalities and inland areas are the engine for the harmonious development of the entire region. Saving the cultural identity of these places, encouraging entrepreneurial activity, optimizing the network of services, especially in education and healthcare, is an act due to the new generations. This article wants to stimulate the creation of a strong constructive-cultural identity in resident citizenship and to hypothesis communication strategies which are useful for the enhancement of cultural resources and also of compatible technological & sustainable innovation. To this challenge is associated the shared creation - through the European Erasmus+ Project Smart Reha…
Pilot study on the combination of an organophosphate-based insecticide paint and pyrethroid-treated long lasting nets against pyrethroid resistant ma…
2015
International audience; A pilot study to test the efficacy of combining an organophosphate-based insecticide paint and pyrethroid-treated Long Lasting Insecticide Treated Nets (LLINs) against pyrethroid-resistant malaria vector mosquitoes was performed in a real village setting in Burkina Faso. Paint Inesfly 5A IGR™, comprised of two organophosphates (OPs) and an Insect Growth Regulator (IGR), was tested in combination with pyrethroid-treated LLINs. Efficacy was assessed in terms of mortality for 12 months using Early Morning Collections of malaria vectors and 30-minute WHO bioassays. Resistance to pyrethroids and OPs was assessed by detecting the frequency of L1014F and L1014S kdr mutation…
Mechanical insufflation-exsufflation vs. tracheal suctioning via tracheostomy tubes for patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis: a pilot study.
2003
To compare the effects of mechanical insufflation-exsufflation vs. suctioning via tracheostomy tubes on respiratory variables for six amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients.In this prospective crossover study, six consecutive patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis who required continuous mechanical ventilation via tracheostomy tubes and developed chest infections underwent measurement of pulse oxyhemoglobin saturation (SpO2), peak inspiratory pressure (PIP), mean airway pressure (Pawm), and work of breathing performed by the ventilator (WOBv) at baseline and 5 and 30 min after tracheal suctioning and 5 min after mechanical insufflation-exsufflation.The baseline values were 93.50 +/- 2.…
Towards 3D Television Through Fusion of Kinect and Integral-Imaging Concepts
2015
We report a new procedure for the capture and processing of light proceeding from 3D scenes of some cubic meters in size. Specifically we demonstrate that with the information provided by a kinect device it is possible to generate an array of microimages ready for their projection onto an integral-imaging monitor. We illustrate our proposal with some imaging experiment in which the final result are 3D images displayed with full parallax.
Digital slicing of 3D scenes by Fourier filtering of integral images
2008
We present a novel technique to extract depth information from 3D scenes recorded using an Integral Imaging system. The technique exploits the periodic structure of the recorded integral image to implement a Fourier-domain filtering algorithm. A proper projection of the filtered integral image permits reconstruction of different planes that constitute the 3D scene. The main feature of our method is that the Fourier-domain filtering allows the reduction of out-of-focus information, providing the InI system with real optical sectioning capacity.
