The evolution of transmission mode
2017
This article reviews research on the evolutionary mechanisms leading to different transmission modes. Such modes are often under genetic control of the host or the pathogen, and often in conflict with each other via trade-offs. Transmission modes may vary among pathogen strains and among host populations. Evolutionary changes in transmission mode have been inferred through experimental and phylogenetic studies, including changes in transmission associated with host shifts and with evolution of the unusually complex life cycles of many parasites. Understanding the forces that determine the evolution of particular transmission modes presents a fascinating medley of problems for which there is…
A systematic analysis of duplicate records in Scopus
2015
In recent years, the Web of Science Core Collection and Scopus databases have become primary sources for conducting studies that evaluate scientific investigations. Such studies require that duplicate records be excluded to avoid errors of overrepresentation. In this line, we identify duplicate records in Scopus and examine their origins. Identifying journals with duplicate records in Scopus, selecting and downloading bibliographic journal records, and identifying and analyzing the duplicate records is the methodology adopted. Duplicate records are found when articles published in a journal are incorrectly mapped by Scopus to this journal and to a different journal from the same publisher a…
Heuristic Method to Improve Systematic Collection of Terminology
2016
In this paper, we propose an experimental tool for analysis and graphical representation of glossaries. The original heuristic algorithms and analysis methods incorporated into the tool appeared to be useful to improve the quality of the glossaries. The tool was used for analysis of ISTQB Standard Glossary of Terms Used in Software Testing. There are instances of problems found in ISTQB glossary related to its consistency, completeness, and correctness described in the paper.

Características y difusión de las revistas científico-técnicas españolas de ciencias de la actividad física y el deporte
2007
El objetivo de este artículo es presentar la situación actual de las revistas españolas de Ciencias de la Actividad Física y el Deporte (CCAFD). Para ello se actualiza el inventario de publicaciones periódicas vigentes y se analizan varias de sus características editoriales básicas como la antigüedad, periodicidad, lugar de edición, institución editora, tipo de soporte y tipo de formato editorial. También se estudia la circulación de dichas publicaciones en las bases de datos nacionales e internacionales selectivas y la difusión que tienen por internet a través de la accesibilidad, el contenido y los servicios añadidos que ofrecen. Se concluye que las CCAFD es un campo joven y poco consolid…
The prohibition of commentaries to the Digest and the antecessorial literature
2014
Esaminate e criticate le diverse interpretazioni presenti in storiografia, si propone una nuova lettura del divieto giustinianeo di commentari al Digesto, che postula il divieto come avente ad oggetto il Digesto quale testo da usare nei tribunali e non quale testo oggetto di studio. Conseguentemente, i destinatari del divieto non erano gli antecessores, come finora unanimemente ritenuto: il che rende perfettamente giustificabile e non in contrasto col divieto la presenza di una ricca produzione di commentari derivanti dall'attività di insegnamento.
The ‘magic square’: A roadmap towards emotional business intelligence
2014
Emotions are known to be an important driver in human behaviour and decision-making. In the business world, there is a growing belief that emotions are not an obstacle but rather an enabler for a successful business. Business intelligence (by providing analytical processing and convenient presentation of a business data) traditionally supports rational decision-making. However, opposite to former opinion that all decisions should be ‘cleansed’ of emotions, there are more and more indicators of the need for solutions supporting also emotional decision-making. The domain of emotional business intelligence, suggested in this paper, concerns emotional and emotion-aware decisions, intuition, inn…
Efficient and accurate computation of Green's function for the Poisson equation in rectangular waveguides
2009
[1] In this paper, a new algorithm for the fast and precise computation of Green's function for the 2-D Poisson equation in rectangular waveguides is presented. For this purpose, Green's function is written in terms of Jacobian elliptic functions involving complex arguments. A new algorithm for the fast and accurate evaluation of such Green's function is detailed. The main benefit of this algorithm is successfully shown within the frame of the Boundary Integral Resonant Mode Expansion method, where a substantial reduction of the computational effort related to the evaluation of the cited Green's function is obtained.
La traducción en el ámbito de Arduino : propuesta de glosario inglés-español
2019
La falta de terminología normalizada para los numerosos términos que existen cuando explicamos un proyecto que se desarrolla con Arduino puede generar ambigüedad y falta de claridad y precisión. Por ello, el objetivo de este artículo es realizar una propuesta de glosario inglés-español a partir de un corpus de textos y mediante la colaboración entre traductores e ingenieros de telecomunicaciones, para contribuir a la normalización terminológica en un ámbito de reciente creación y gran dinamismo. Se trata de aportar un recurso fiable y actual para que el traductor pueda trabajar con mayor facilidad en la traducción de textos de este ámbito y a la vez contribuir a la normalización terminológi…
