Abstract:
Fluorine-free foam fire extinguishing agents are environmentally friendly compared with aqueous film-forming foam fire extinguishing agents (AFFF). Design-Expert 11.0 software and the Box-Behnken design principle were used to optimize the foaming agent formulation which is the core of fluorine-free foam extinguishing agents and regression models of the expansion ratio (α), 50% drainage time (t50%) and surface tension (γ) were established. Furthermore, the optimal combination of foaming agent various factors (the mass fraction of APG0810, silicone surfactant, SDS and BS-12) were predicted by the regression models. The prediction results showed that when the mass fraction of APG0810, silicone surfactant, SDS and BS-12 were 2.0%, 0.242%, 0.116% and 0.349%, respectively, the comprehensive foaming agent performance was highest. The α, t50% and γ of the optimized foaming agent were 8.0, 376 s, and 24.1 mN/m, respectively. The fluorinefree foam fire extinguishing agent was prepared by compounding the optimized foaming agent with foam stabilizers and other additives, resulting in a surface tension of 24.3 mN/m and a spreading factor greater than zero. The, α, t50% and sealing time of the fluorine-free foam fire extinguishing agent were 7.6, 541 s, and 895 s, respectively, which were 8.6%, 16.1%, and 14% higher than commercial 6% AFFF.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT The antibacterial properties of novel quinoline-indole (QI) agents were examined. QI agents demonstrated potent bactericidal activities against Staphylococcus aureus, killing by lytic and nonlytic mechanisms. S. aureus mutants resistant to a lytic QI agent (SEP 155342) and a nonlytic QI agent (SEP 118843) arose at frequencies of 1.4 × 10−9 and 1.2 × 10−8, respectively, by selection at four times the MICs. Mutants resistant to QI agent SEP 155342 were unstable, but mutants resistant to QI agent SEP 118843 displayed stable resistance. Mutants resistant to QI agent SEP 118843 were not cross resistant to other inhibitors, including QI agent SEP 155342. Addition of QI agents SEP 118843 and SEP 155342 at four times the MIC caused nonspecific inhibition of several macromolecular biosynthetic pathways in S. aureus. Within 10 min, QI agents SEP 118843 and SEP 155342 both interfered with bacterial membrane integrity, as measured by uptake of propidium iodide. Agents from the two classes of the QI agents probably kill staphylococci by separate mechanisms which, nevertheless, both involve interference with cytoplasmic membrane function. Precise structure-activity relationships for the division of QI agents into two classes could not be determined. However, lytic activity was often associated with substitution of a basic amine at position 4 of the quinoline nucleus, whereas compounds with nonlytic activity usually contained an aromatic ring with or without a methoxy substituent at position 4. Nonlytic QI agents such as SEP 118843 may possess selective activity against the prokaryotic membrane since this compound failed to lyse mouse erythrocytes when it was added at a concentration equivalent to four times the MIC for S. aureus.

Abstract:
A situação da Borreliose de Lyme (BL) em Portugal foi avaliada com base na identificação dos principais vectores (carraças) e sua distribuição, taxas de infecção com os agentes do complexo Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato (s.l.) e os casos humanos com confirmação laboratorial. Ixodes ricinus, o principal vector desta doença, foi estudado durante um período de 5 anos na Tapada Nacional de Mafra (área protegida), durante o qual foi observado um ciclo unimodal para todos os estados de desenvolvimento, por um período de 1 a 1,5 anos. Confirmou-se uma correlação significativa entre a variação sazonal da abundância de carraças e algumas variáveis climáticas, nomeadamente, a temperatura, humidade e precipitação. Além de I. ricinus, foram colhidas outras espécies de carraças tais como Dermacentor marginatus, Haemaphysalis punctata, Rhipicephalus sanguineus e Ixodes hexagonus. As taxas de infecção atingiram valores globais de 11,8% para I. ricinus e de 5,2% para as restantes espécies, com identificação de vários agentes do complexo B. burgdorferi s.l., provavelmente relacionada com a acentuada diversidade de hospedeiros presentes na área investigada. Num estudo a nível nacional, durante 4 anos, foram amostrados 55 pontos para colheita de vectores, tendo-se obtido um total de 2801 carraças distribuídas pelos seguintes géneros/espécies Rhipicephalus spp, D. marginatus, I. ricinus, Hy. marginatum, H. punctata e Ixodes spp, com diferentes taxas de colheita. Todos estes ixodídeos foram encontrados infectados por B. lusitaniae, a principal espécie genómica detectada no vector (até ao momento). Em Portugal, para além da Tapada Nacional de Mafra, foram apenas identificadas estirpes patogénicas de B. garinii, num local perto de Coimbra (Soure). A confirmação laboratorial de casos humanos foi obtida com base no diagnóstico de rotina desta doença, realizado no Instituto de Higiene e Medicina Tropical, quer ao nível serológico por Western-Blot (15.5%), quer por amplificação do espaço intergénico de rRNA 5S-23S (rrf-rrl) de B. burgdorferi s.l. (28%). Neste último caso, foram identificadas duas espécies genómicas patogénicas (B. garinii e B. afzelii), além de B. lusitaniae. A principal proveniência dos doentes com Borreliose de Lyme foi Lisboa, Coimbra, Tomar, Viseu e Almada.Os principais factores envolvidos na distribuição das carraças e consequentemente no ciclo epidemiológico da Borreliose de Lyme em Portugal encontram-se associados com o clima (temperatura, humidade e precpitação) e composição do habitat (áreas expostas, florestas mistas e de caducas). A estrutura da paisagem (ex. fragmentação) foi igualmente considerada como um factor essencial para a presença de carraças numa determinada área. Com base nestas variáveis, mapas de risco foram criados para os três ixodídeos (I. ricinus, D. marginatus, Rhipicephalus spp) potencialmente mais implicados na transmissão dos agentes de BL em Portugal Em conclusão, a Borreliose de Lyme existe em Portugal e apresenta uma epidemiologia complexa, como a seguir se demonstra: i) além do vector Europeu, registaram-se outros potenciais vectores, susceptíveis de estarem associados a uma maior diversidade de hospedeiros reservatórios (ainda por investigar) e biótopos específicos, ii) uma elevada diversidade de espécies genómicas do complexo B. burgdorferi sensu lato, decorrente deste espectro alargado de vectores-reservatórios, iii) e uma distribuição generalizada de doentes de BL, com importantes taxas de infecção, resultante da referida diversidade de agentes patogénicos, não só das duas espécies genómicas mais reconhecidas na Europa (B. garinii e B. afzelii), como da recentemente isolada B. lusitaniae, indutora de um quadro clínico aparentemente diferente e restricto à zona do Mediterrâneo.
The status of Lyme Borreliosis (LB) in Portugal was evaluated through identification of the main vectors (ticks), their distribution, infection rates with Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato species and human disease cases. Ixodes ricinus, the main vector of this disease, was studied extensively in a 5-year focal study in Tapada Nacional de Mafra, a protected area. An unimodal dynamic cycle was found for all developmental stages and a 1-1.5 year developmental cycle was observed. Climatic variables, including temperature, humidity and precipitation were significantly correlated with seasonal variation in I. ricinus abundance. Other tick species, namely Dermacentor marginatus, Haemaphysalis punctata, Rhipicephalus sanguineus and Ixodes hexagonus, were also collected. An overall infection rate of 11.8% for I. ricinus and 5.2% for the other tick species were detected. Several Borrelia species were identified in these ticks, probably due to the great variety of hosts present in this area. In a nationwide study during a 4-years period, 55 sample sites were surveyed and 2801 ticks were collected, including Rhipicephalus spp, D. marginatus, I. ricinus, Hyalomma marginatum, H. punctata and Ixodes spp, with different collection efforts. All of these ticks were found infected with B. lusitaniae, the main strain of Borrelia found in Portugal. Confirmed pathogenic bacterial strains (B. garinii) were only registered in Mafra and near Coimbra (Soure). Detection of human LB cases was achieved through routine diagnosis in Institute of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, where several diagnostic techniques were applied. Positive cases were confirmed by immunoblotting (15.5%) and/or amplification of B. burgdorferi s.l. intergenic-spacer of rRNA 5S-23S (rrf-rrl) (28%), with identification of two pathogenic genospecies (B. garinii and B. afzelii), besides B. lusitaniae. Lisboa, Coimbra, Tomar, Viseu and Almada were the main geographic origins of LB positive patients. The main environmental determinants of tick distribution and thus in the epidemiological cycle of Lyme Borreliosis in Portugal were related to climate (temperature, humidity and precipitation) and landscape composition (open areas, mixed and deciduous forests). Landscape structure (e.gfragmentation) was also important in determining tick presence in an area. These environmental factors were used to build risk maps were created for the three main tick-species potentially implicated in the transmission of LB agents in Portugal (I. ricinus, D. marginatus and Rhipicephalus spp). In conclusion, Lyme Borreliosis exists in Portugal and presents a complex epidemiology, as follows: i) besides the known European I. ricinus-vector, other potential tick species were found as vectors for LB spirochetes, being susceptibe to be associated with numerous reservoir hosts (still to investigate) and specific biotopes; ii) an higher diversity of genomic species belonging to B. burgdorferi s.l. complex, which resulted from this large amplitude of both vectors and reservoirs; and iii) a generalized distribution of LB patients, with important infection rates associated with the referred diversity of pathogenic agents, not only with the two more prevalent LB genomic species already recognized in Europe (B. garinii and B. afzelii), as with the recently isolated B. lusitaniae, which induces a clinical status apparently restricted to the Mediterranean basin.

Abstract:
COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIOR
Nesta dissertação, apresenta-se uma abordagem para regular a interação dos agentes que fazem parte de um sistema multi-agente aberto. Em sistemas abertos, os agentes podem ser não-cooperativos, estão imersos em um ambiente altamente imprevisível e, freqüentemente, os outros agentes que compõem o sistema não são conhecidos a priori. Para algumas classes de aplicações, esta imprevisibilidade não é adequada, podendo levar a falhas de software. Desta forma, é proposta uma abordagem baseada em leis de interação para construir sistemas multi-agentes abertos, onde um controle sobre o comportamento dos agentes é esperado. Propõe-se um modelo conceitual para a especificação da forma como as interações são reguladas em um sistema multi-agente. Este modelo conceitual trata conceitos como cenas, normas e restrições de forma integrada. Além disso, a interação entre os agentes deve ser monitorada e as leis que foram especificadas devem ser aplicadas. Para isto, propõe-se uma linguagem declarativa para a especificação da interação de acordo com os elementos do modelo conceitual e uma infra-estrutura de software que age como mediador das interações garantindo que elas estejam de acordo com as especificações.
In this work, we propose an approach for regulating agents interaction on an open multi-agent system. In open systems, agents are immersed in a highly unpredictable environment, they can be self-interested, and other agents are frequently unknown beforehand. We argue that, in some applications, unexpected behavior may lead to system faults. For this reason, we propose a law enforcement approach to build open multi-agent systems where a certain degree of control over agents behavior is desirable. A conceptual model is proposed to specify how the interactions of an open multi-agent system should happen. This model deals with concepts such as norms, constraints and scenes in a integrated way. We also propose a declarative language that allows the interaction s specification according to the elements that compose the conceptual model, and a software infrastructure that acts as a mediator monitoring and enforcing agents interaction.

COORDENAÇÃO DE APERFEIÇOAMENTO DO PESSOAL DE ENSINO SUPERIOR
FUNDAÇÃO NACIONAL DE SAÚDE
O design do livro é uma arte invisível? Depende do leitor. Mas como este leitor é considerado pelos designers de livros? Esta questão é o ponto de partida deste estudo, que busca investigar como o designer pode participar do processo de formação de escritores e leitores, compreendendo a inserção do Design, enquanto campo de vocação interdisciplinar, em projetos em que há a predominância do hibridismo, da mescla de vozes e da mescla de identidades.Sabendo que os designers de livro servem a três clientes: autor, leitor e editor, é verificado que apenas autor e editor interferem diretamente no trabalho do designer, enquanto este profissional considera o leitor apenas por uma noção pré-concebida. Desta forma, questiona-se a ausência do leitor nos projetos de design do livro,ao mesmo tempo em que se propõe a noção de Design da Leitura.O estudo considera as teorias que tratam da recepção e mediação da leitura, como em Chartier, e utiliza-se de um exercício etnográfico sobre os encontros presenciais do Projeto de Escolarização dos Agentes de Saúde voltado para o agentes Guarani das aldeias de Itaxi, Araponga, Sapukai e Rio Pequeno, na região de Angra dos Reis e Paraty. A partir da observação das práticas da leitura do grupo Guarani são levantadas questões para pensar uma abordagem que contemple as características destes leitores. Portanto, ao reconhecer a importância do leitor e das mediações, o Design da Leitura contempla também o letramento, ao tentar contribuir tanto para a alfabetização como para a formação das práticas sociais de leitura e escrita.
Is Book Design an invisible Art? How is the reader considered by book designers? These questions are the starting point for this study, which aims at investigating how can a designer contribute to the process of forming new writers and readers. Design is here approached as an interdisciplinary vocational area where hybrid projects occur; encompassing different voices and identities. We work on the assumption that book designers consider three kinds of clients - the author, reader and publisher - and that only author and publisher have traditionally interfered in the designer´s work more directly, while the reader exists more as a pre-conceived notion. By and large, the reader has been disregarded by book designers. We, then, try to propose what we call a Design for Reading or Reading Design. We consider theories that deal with reception and mediation in the reading process. We use theoretians like Roger Chartier and apply them to an Ethnographic exercise carried out at the Schooling Project with Guarani Health Agents in the Native Brazilian Villages of Itaxi, Araponga, Sapukai and Rio Pequeno in the Angra dos Reis and Paraty Regions. By observing the reading process by the Guarani Agents, we raise questions on how to encompass the specific profile of such a reader in the visual project, thereby recognizing the importance of the reader and mediation in the Reading Design. We also consider some aspects of literacy in order to contribute to new reading and writing. social processes.

Abstract:
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited.
This research describes and analyzes a United States Navy Satellite Communications (SATCOM) performance monitoring model in providing status information to a network monitoring console to support naval operations. The environment is characterized by potentially adverse conditions that affect satellite performance. Current SATCOM systems are unable to provide performance information to the network's performance monitor because they are not Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) enabled and not integrated into the routable network. A network monitoring model defined by sense, decide, and act is central to this study. It represents enhanced monitoring by the subscriber station's monitor console for naval shipboard operations. This model delivers operational and RF environmental information to the SNMP MIB environment so that commonly used SNMP agents can request and send information for sending proper messages to the network's performance monitoring system. The proposed solution is explored through analysis of existing monitoring models together with observations of a tactical networking field experiment, in which equipment at the edge of the network and subscriber's SATCOM terminal is monitored for gathering critical performance details.

Abstract:

Most organizations of today are more or less influenced by the globalization. This phenomenon has led to that changes belong to the everyday concern of companies in order to be ahead of the competition. Simultaneously, when it comes to discussions about change failures and successes, it mainly is the top management standing in the spotlight. Therefore, the aim of this thesis is to take a glance backstage of organizational changes while focusing on middle management. The purpose of this research is to examine how the middle manager can become a change agent and what contributions this new role can bring to the company. A glimpse on the historical evolution of the middle manager´s role and status helps to identify the underlying causes for the existing stereotype of this management group as well as the reasons for why middle management seems to belong to the ‘forgotten breed’ in organizations. Furthermore, the concept of changes and change management is outlined in order to clarify why changes fail and how those failures can be prevented with the help of a change agent. Based on this theoretical framework, the potential of middle managers acting as change agents is discussed. Additionally, due to the fact that the middle manager’s role as a change agent is not fully recognized yet, an own developed concept is outlined. This model is created as a result of empirical research in terms of interviews with consultants as well as extensive literature studies within this research area. The concept demonstrates how a middle manager can become a change agent and which contributions this new role can bring to the organization. Overall, it can be concluded from the research that it is time for organizations to recognize the potential of middle managers; they are the ones who can make changes happen.

Abstract:
The economic and social impact of maritime accidents are enormous and devastating. In recent times the world experienced some grievous accidents which put serious challenges to the existing methods of safety evaluation. Over the years many research has been conducted on risk analysis and improvement of safety standards. Yet accidents are taking place and human elements are the major contributing factors. This paper proposes a new technique based on logic programming (e.g. Prolog) method. It is considered that an accident is an unwanted event which initiates from hidden causes (e.g. various action(s)/perception(s) of ship crew). It is, therefore, discussed that using intelligent agents for evaluation of the actions/perceptions of ship crew may result in uncovering of the hidden root causes behind an accident. Intelligent agents are essentially computer programs which acts or behaves rationally according their percepts. The perception and action sequence of an intelligent agent depends on the given environment and knowledge base. Study reveals that such a technique may assist ship crew in evaluating their decisions for making a safe voyage. The merits and demerits of the method are discussed briefly and future recommendations are made.
