_______________________________________________________
Syftet med denna studie är att genom intervjuer belysa lärares arbete med skrivuppgiften i det nationella provet i årskurs tre. Studien avgränsas till hur lärare praktiskt förbereder, genomför och bedömer skrivuppgiften. I studien har fyra informanter intervjuats utifrån en kvalitativ intervjumetod.
Studien visar bland annat att informanterna har skilda erfarenhet av nationella prov och att de har kommit olika långt med genomförandet av 2010 års prov. Även om deras erfarenhet skiljer sig åt har de liknande grundtankar inom förberedelse, genomförande och bedömning. Dock finns viss skillnad i hur de utgår från läroplan, kursplan, mål för skrivning samt påverkan av att provet för tillfället pågår. De följer instruktionerna som medföljer provet och inser vikten av en helhetsbedömning av elevernas kunskaper. I forskningsbakgrund framkommer att lärares arbetssätt påverkats mindre för de lärarna med erfarenhet medan det i resultatet är tvärtom, att arbetssättet påverkats mer för dem med erfarenhet av provet.

Full textThe consignation, despite its Roman origins, remains largely under-studied by authors. The development of its field by way of sedimentation has led to a scattering of hypothesis. The consignation may serve a specific purpose : to discharge the debtor, to safeguard or to guarantee.However, it is possible to verify that the consignation presents a unitary nature. It can be defined as the mechanism by which a thing, object of a potential right, is entrusted to a third party and assigned to the satisfaction of the person who shall eventually be recognized as the beneficiary of such thing. This original figure, answers to a state of uncertainty with a situation of expectancy

Resumo: Neste trabalho, apresentam-se algumas contribuições para o estudo de redes ópticas inteligentes e transparentes, por exemplo: Redes Ópticas Comutáveis Automaticamente (ASON), no que tange aos protocolos de roteamento e atribuição de comprimentos de onda para o estabelecimento de conexões fim-a-fim em ambientes distribuídos. Os resultados deste trabalho foram obtidos através da simulação dos algoritmos de roteamento e atribuição de comprimentos de onda desenvolvidos em C++. Para que o estudo pudesse ser feito, foram adotadas algumas topologias de rede comerciais e hipotéticas para a comparação de desempenho entre os algoritmos de roteamento e atribuição de comprimentos de onda propostos e os clássicos de modo a identificar as diferenças de comportamento destes algoritmos nas redes ópticas em diversas situações, incluindo as condições de restrição de alcance dos canais ópticos e a continuidade do comprimento de onda no estabelecimento de uma conexão fim-a-fim. Os resultados mostraram que os algoritmos de roteamento e de atribuição de comprimentos de onda propostos são eficientes para o funcionamento destas redes, provendo desempenhos iguais ou superiores em relação aos demais algoritmos de roteamento e atribuição de comprimentos de onda tradicionais medidos em termos da probabilidade de bloqueio dos pedidos de conexão. Como conseqüência, estes algoritmos propostos demonstraram que são capazes de aperfeiçoar o QoS óptico nas redes ópticas inteligentes e transparentes
Abstract: In this work, we present contributions to the routing and wavelength assignment protocols in transparent and intelligent optical networks such as Automatically Switched Optical Networks (ASON) for end-to-end connection establishment on the distributed environments. The results of this work were obtained through simulation of the routing and wavelengh assignment algorithms which were developed in C++. For this study, some commercially and hypothetical network topologies were adopted to compare the performance of the proposed routing and wavelengh assignment algorithms with traditional ones in order to identify the differences of those algorithm performance. Studies were carried out in optical networks under several conditions such as the limit of optical transmission reach and wavelength-continuity constraints for end-to-end connection establishment. The results have shown that the proposed routing and wavelengh assignment algorithms are efficient for use in these networks, providing equal or higher performance than traditional routing and wavelengh assignment algorithms measured in terms of blocking probability of the connection requests. Consequently, the proposed algorithms showed that they are able to improve the optical QoS in transparent and intelligent optical networks

Resumo: Uma abordagem baseada em análise intervalar para o projeto de controladores por realimentação de estados robusta é proposta. Demonstra-se que quando especificações para alocação de pólos são representadas por conjuntos espectrais de polinômios intervalares, o problema do projeto por realimentação de estados robusta pode ser completamente formulado e resolvido no contexto de conceitos e métodos de análise intervalar. Representações poliédricas convexas de uma classe de controladores por realimentação de estados robusta satisfazendo a uma equação de Ackerman intervalar são derivadas. Um procedimento de projeto baseado em programação não-linear que objetiva a maximização da não-fragilidade do controlador robusto resultante é introduzido. Para sistemas multivariáveis é proposta uma abordagem por alocação de pólos utilizando a equação de Sylvester intervalar e técnicas de resolução baseadas em intervalos modais. Exemplos numéricos ilustram o projeto de controladores por realimentação de estados obtidos a partir da abordagem por análise intervalar proposta
Abstract: An interval analysis approach for the design of robust state feedback controllers is proposed. It is shown that when regional pole placement specifications are represented as spectral sets of interval polynomials, the robust state feedback design problem can be entirely formulated and solved in the context of the concepts and methods of interval analysis. Explicit convex polyhedral representations of a class of robust state feedback controllers satisfying an interval Ackerman¿s equation are derived. A design procedure based on nonlinear programming which aims at maximizing the non-fragility of the resulting robust controller is introduced. In the case multivariable systems is proposed an approach based on pole placement which employs an interval Sylvester equation and modal intervals techniques. Numerical examples illustrate the design of robust state feedback controllers through the interval analysis approaches proposed.

Full textAIn our study, we consider two optimization problems in automated container terminals at import; the first is the vehicle scheduling problem; and the second is the integrated problem of location assignment and vehicle scheduling. In the first part of our study, we propose different traffic layout adapted to the two studied problems and to every kind of automated container terminal. We also introduce relevant reviews of literature treating the optimization of container handling systems at maritime terminal, the optimization of general automated guided vehicle system and the multi-objective optimization in general, and in particular context of maritime container terminals. In the second part, we resolve the planning of QC-AV-ASC (Quay Cranes-Automated Vehicles - Automated Stacking Cranes). We present an effective model for every kind of traffic layout. Moreover, we propose an efficient bi-objective model which is important to determine the optimal storage time and the minimal number of required AVs. CPLEX resolutions are used to prove the efficiency of our modelling approach. In the third part of this thesis, we explore a problem which has not been sufficiently studied: the integrated problem of location assignment and vehicle scheduling (IPLAVS), in Maritime Automated Container Terminal (MACT) at import. This part represents a new and realistic approach of MACT optimization considering mono-objective and multi-objective aspect

Full textMeasurment of dipolar coupling provides 3D structural information of powder samples. However, in practice, the high density of spins in organic compounds prevents the measurements of long-range dipolar couplings in solid-state NMR by the so-called dipolar truncation effect. The study of rare spins on natural abundance allows to overcome this problem. In fact, with a natural abundance of 1.1 %, the probability for three 13C to be coupled is negligible. We developed a methodology based either on the dipolar recoupling NMR pulse sequence POST-C7 or on the dramatic increase in sensitivity provided by dynamic nuclear polarization. We demonstrated that its methodology provides a measure of 13C-13C dipolar couplings in natural abundance powder samples and that the so-obtained distance information is sensitive to both molecular conformation and crystal packing of powder samples. Moreover, we show that the recoupling pulse sequence R20_9_2 is more robust to strong chemical shift anisotropy and also to strong 1H-13C heteronuclear dipolar couplings than POST-C7. The second challenge involves 13C signal assignment for natural abundance. In fact, there are only a few examples of 13C-13C correlation spectra obtained for natural abundance samples. Here, we show that 13C-13C correlation spectra sequence based on the reintroduction of 13C−13C dipolar couplings can be obtained with standard MAS probe and within few days using R20_9_2 pulse sequence. Contrary to pulse sequences based on 13C-13C J coupling, our pulse sequence requires shorter DQ excitation time and hence, is more suitable for samples having short T2 relaxation times such as amorphous solids

Vehicle fleets are an important component in several applications, moving materials and people. Examples include material handling in warehouses, factories and port terminals, people transportation as in taxi fleets and emergency services, such as medical assistance, fire-fighters and police. Fleet operation is crucial for these applications: it can mean loss of money and commercial partners in case of industry, os loss of lives in case of emergency services. Controlling the fleet to achieve efficient levels of performance is a difficult problem, though, and becomes even harder as the fleet grows. Research in the area has been linking vehicle fleet operation to Multi-Agent Systems, because vehicle fleets are naturally distributed and Multi-agent System is a convenient abstraction to cope with distributed Artificial Intelligence problems. Therefore, it is proposed a Multi-Agent System to control vehicle fleets, focusing on material handling application in warehouses. The proposed system has three types of agents: Vehicle Agent, Loading Point Agent and Storage Point Agent. Agents interact amongst themselves through messages, trying to efficiently realize the material handling in a warehouse. System implementation is done through a simulation of a warehouse operation, built on top of MASON multi-agent system simulation platform. Task assignment strategies is also an important problem, therefore four strategies are shown and tested using the simulation: CNET, Fuzzy, DynCNET and FiTA. To enable comparison among these strategies, a Genetic Algorithm is employed to systematically search good parameters for each strategy. The proposed system, as well as the simulation, are offered as a framework for development of other vehicle fleets controlling multi-agent systems and/or task assignment strategies.
Em várias aplicações, frotas de veículos são um componente importante, transportando materiais e pessoas. Exemplos incluem o manejo de materiais em depósitos, fabricas e terminais portuários, o transporte de pessoas como em frotas de taxis e serviços de emergência, como socorro medico, bombeiros e polícia. A operacao da frota e crucial para essas aplicações: pode significar perda de dinheiro e parceiros comerciais no caso dos exemplos na indústria, ou perda de vidas, no caso de serviços de emergência. Porem, controlar a frota de modo que ela opere eficientemente e um problema difícil, que se torna ainda mais custoso com o aumento da frota. Pesquisas na área tem ligado a operação de frotas de veículos a Sistema Multiagente, notando os fatos de que frotas de veículos são naturalmente distribuídas e que o conceito de Agentes (e, consequentemente, Sistemas Multiagentes) e uma abstração conveniente para lidar com problemas de Inteligencia Artificial de forma distribuída. Com base nisto, e proposto um Sistema Multiagente para controle de frotas de veículos, focando a aplicação dessa frota no manejo de materiais em um depósito. O sistema proposto possui três tipos agentes: Agente de Veículo, Agente de Ponto de Carga e Agente de Ponto de Armazenamento. Os agentes interagem entre si, trocando mensagens a fim de realizar o manejo dos materiais no deposito de forma eficiente. O sistema e implementado na forma de uma simulação de operação de um deposito, construída na plataforma de simulação de sistemas multiagentes MASON. Como a estrategia de associação de tarefas também e um problema importante, quatro estratégias são mostradas e testadas através da simulação: CNET, Fuzzy, DynCNET e FiTA. Para possibilitar comparações entre as estrategias, um Algoritmo Genetico foi utilizado para sistematicamente encontrar bons parâmetros para as quatro estrategias. O sistema proposto, bem como a simulação, são oferecidos como framework para construção de outros sistemas multiagentes para frotas de veículos e/ou estrategias de associação de tarefas.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: Reproductive health of people living with HIV/AIDS is a significant public health issue because of its associated risks of HIV transmission to both, the baby and the sexual partner. Provision of effective contraceptive to HIV-positive women is a proven prevention strategy, and can help prevent unintended pregnancy and other sexually transmitted infections. Unmet need for contraception in developing world and rates of unintended pregnancies among women living with HIV remain highly prevalent. The objectives of this study were to identify the current knowledge of HIV-positive women on existing contraceptive methods, determine their current contraceptive practices, identify barriers to contraception use, and provide recommendations on how contraception uptake can be improved among these women in Kasane. A cross-sectional study using qualitative technique was used among twenty five (25) participants at Kasane Primary Hospital. In-depth interviews were conducted with the help of research assistants for data collection. Excel Microsoft Office Software was used for socio-demographics data entry and analysis, and qualitative data were analysed manually using descriptive statistics. Main reasons for low uptake of contraception were desire for children, partner refusal, side effects, and socio-cultural and religious factors. Contraception prevalence was 56 % and condom was the most used contraceptive method (36%). whereas the rate of unintended pregnancies was 60% . Knowledge of contraception was high (100%) but limited proportion of participants (12%) had an expended understanding of contraception as a HIV prevention strategy. Most women living with HIV prefer to space, limit or stop childbearing but do not use any contraceptive method and found themselves with unintended pregnancy. Despite the good knowledge about contraception among participants, the uptake remained low. About half (44%) of the women interviewed were not on any contraceptive method. The choice to use contraception interferes with many factors and the desire to fulfil the primary reproductive intention of men and women, including those living with HIV, mostly override this choice. There is need for a strategic integrated approach that conveys HIV prevention messages and discusses the importance of planning a pregnancy. Thus promoting dual protection among women living with HIV.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die voortplantingsgesondheid van mense wat met MIV/vigs leef, is ‘n belangrike openbaregesondheidskwessie, aangesien voortplantingsgesondheid verband hou met die gevaar van MIV-oordrag na babas sowel as seksmaats. Daar is al bewys dat ander seksueel oordraagbare siektes sowel as onbeplande swangerskappe voorkom word as doeltreffende voorbehoedmiddels verskaf word aan vroue wat MIV-positief is. Dit behoefte aan voorbehoeding in ontwikkelende lande bly egter baie dikwels agterweë, en ‘n groot persentasie vroue wat met MIV leef, raak onbepland swanger. Die doel met hierdie ondersoek is om vas te stel wat vroue wat MIV-positief is, tans oor bestaande voorbehoeding weet, watter voorbehoedingsmetodes hulle tans gebruik en watter struikelblokke daar vir die gebruik van voorbehoeding is, en om voorstelle te maak oor hoe ʼn groter persentasie van hierdie vroue in Kasane oortuig kan word om voorbehoedmiddels te gebruik. ‘n Deursnee-studie wat met behulp van kwalitatiewe tegnieke by die Kasane Primêre Hospitaal uitgevoer is, het vyf en twintig (25) deelnemers betrek. Met die hulp van navorsingsassistente is diepte-onderhoude gevoer om inligting in te samel. Microsoft Office se Excel-sagteware is gebruik om sosio-demografiese inligting in te voer en te ontleed, en kwalitatiewe inligting is met verwysing na beskrywende statistiek met die hand ontleed. Die vernaamste redes vir die trae gebruik van voorbehoeding was die begeerte na ‘n kind, die teenstand van seksmaats, die newe-effekte, en sosio-kulturele en godsdienstige oorwegings. Daar is bevind dat 56% van die deelnemers voorbehoeding gebruik, dat kondome die algemeenste voorbehoedmiddel is (36%) en dat 60% van alle swangerskappe ongewens was. Die deelnemers was almal oor voorbehoeding ingelig (100%), maar slegs ‘n klein persentasie (12%) het ook geweet dat voorbehoedmiddels ‘n voorkomingstrategie vir MIV-infeksie is. Die meeste vroue wat met MIV leef, verkies om swangerskappe te versprei, te beperk of te verhoed, maar gebruik geen voorbehoedmiddels nie en het dus onbepland swanger geraak. Hoewel die deelnemers goed ingelig was oor voorbehoeding, het min van hulle dit gebruik. Ongeveer die helfte (44%) van die vroue met wie onderhoude gevoer is, het geen voorbehoeding gebruik nie. Die keuse om ‘n voorbehoedmiddel te gebruik, word beïnvloed talle ander faktore, en mans en vroue se primêre begeerte om voort te plant – ook al leef hulle met MIV – weeg gewoonlik swaarder as hierdie keuse. Daar is ‘n behoefte aan ‘n strategiese, geïntegreerde benadering wat boodskappe oor MIV-voorkoming oordra en wat tuisbring hoe belangrik dit is om swangerskappe te beplan. Sodoende sal vroue wat met MIV leef, tweedoelige beskerming kry.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: The global targets of zero deaths from AIDS-related illness by the year 2015 can only be met if all HIV infected infants can be diagnosed and initiated on anti-retroviral therapy as early as four to six weeks. WHO/UNICEF reported in 2010 that only 8% of eligible infants were tested worldwide. There seems to be more attention directed towards service delivery and less attention on empowering mothers to make voluntary decision to access the services. The influence of maternal knowledge of infant HIV infection and the impact on the attitude towards knowing the status of their children so early in life remains uncertain. The aim of this study was to explore the knowledge and attitude of the HIV positive mothers to early infant diagnosis in order to make strategic recommendations to the health authorities on how to scale up the services in the various health facilities. A qualitative study was conducted in two health centres in King Sabata Dalindyebo Municipality of Eastern Cape Province, South Africa. This qualitative study drew in-depth interview with twenty-four HIV positive mothers/ exposed infants’ pair attending the immunization clinics. The results obtained were presented to two focus groups for discussion and validation of findings. Thematic analysis explored the emerging themes relevant to the objective of the study and health authorities. The study found that there is a high level of awareness about infant HIV infection. Majority of the participants were aware of MTCT of HIV and the timing of transmission (pregnancy, delivery and breastfeeding). Majority of the participants were aware about the protection offered by maternal exposure to ARVs however, only few participants knew about the risk of transmission despite ARV use. Majority of the participants did not know the right time to bring their infant for HIV test. Majority of the participants never thought about HIV test for their infant as early as six weeks. Majority of the mothers have fears about bringing their infants for HIV test so early. They have concerns about recommending early infant diagnosis to other children in their community due to the perceived disclosure of their own status. The study found that despite good knowledge of mothers about infant HIV infection and prevention methods, the knowledge about early infant diagnosis is lacking. The attitude of the mothers to knowing the status of their infant so early in life is challenging for them. The health authorities have more work to do to empower these mothers with knowledge about early infant diagnosis and early ART initiation to increase the chances of survival of HIV infected infants.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die internasionale mikpunt van geen sterftes weens vigsverwante siektes teen die jaar 2015 kan slegs bereik word as alle MIV-besmette babas reeds op vier tot ses weke gediagnoseer word en antiretrovirale terapie (ART) ontvang. Die WGO/UNICEF het in 2010 berig dat slegs 8% van babas wat getoets moet word, in werklikheid wêreldwyd getoets is. Dit blyk dat meer aandag aan dienslewering en minder aan die bemagtiging van moeders om die vrywillige besluit om van die dienste gebruik te maak, geskenk word. Die invloed van moeders se kennis op MIV-besmetting van babas en die impak op die houding teenoor kennis van die status van hul kinders op so ’n vroeë ouderdom is steeds onbekend. Die doel van hierdie studie was om die kennis en houding van MIV-positiewe moeders rakende vroeë diagnose van babas te ondersoek ten einde strategiese aanbevelings aan die gesondheidsowerhede te maak oor verbetering van die dienste in die onderskeie gesondheidsfasiliteite. ’n Kwalitatiewe studie is in twee gesondheidsentrums in King Sabata Dalindyebo-munisipaliteit in die provinsie Oos-Kaap, Suid-Afrika, onderneem. Dit het diepte-onderhoude met 24 MIV-positiewe moeders/blootgestelde babas wat die immuniseringsklinieke besoek het, behels. Die resultate is aan twee fokusgroepe vir bespreking en bekragtiging van die bevindings voorgelê. Tydens ’n tematiese ontleding is die temas wat aan die lig gekom het wat betrekking het op die doelstellings van die studie en gesondheidsowerhede ondersoek. Daar is gevind dat daar ’n hoë vlak bewustheid van MIV-besmetting van babas is. Die meerderheid van die deelnemers was bewus van moeder-na-kind-oordrag van MIV en die tydsberekening van oordrag (swangerskap, geboorte en borsvoeding). Die meerderheid van die deelnemers was ook bewus van die beskerming wat gebied word deur die moeder se blootstelling aan ART, maar net ’n paar deelnemers het egter geweet van die risiko van oordrag ongeag die gebruik van ART. Die meerderheid van die deelnemers het nie geweet wat die korrekte tyd is om hul baba vir ’n MIV-toets te bring nie. Die meerderheid het nog nooit ’n MIV-toets vir hul baba voor die ouderdom van ses weke oorweeg nie. Die meerderheid van die moeders was bang om hul babas so vroeg reeds vir MIV te laat toets. Hulle is begaan oor die aanbeveling van vroeë diagnose vir ander mense in hul gemeenskap weens die waargenome bekendmaking van hul eie status. Die studie het bevind dat ongeag moeders se grondige kennis van MIV-besmetting van babas en voorsorgmaatreëls, daar ’n gebrek aan kennis oor vroeë diagnose van babas is. Die houding van die moeders teenoor kennis van die status van hul baba op so ’n vroeë ouderdom hou vir hulle ’n uitdaging in. Die gesondheidsowerhede moet hulle daarop toespits om hierdie moeders sonder kennis oor vroeë diagnose van babas en vroeë nakoming van ART te bemagtig ten einde MIV-besmette babas se kanse op oorlewing te verhoog.
