Abstract:
Este trabajo se centra en la traducción al español del poema de Andrew Kaufman “Signs of the Cross”, que se encuentra en su libro Earth’s Ends. El poema presenta una visión familiar, al mismo tiempo que extranjerizante, de los pueblos latinoamericanos a los que describe. Se tratan en él temas como el cambio constante, la desacralización de lo sagrado, la reescritura de la historia, la resiliencia de algunos de los pueblos latinoamericanos, el peso del pasado sobre ellos, así como la presencia del cristianismo y los símbolos de la cruz presentes en acontecimientos históricos importantes, la rel

Abstract:
Innovative distributed systems are often studied with the aid of simulation, especially in the case of large scale and situated systems. One of the key aspects of distributed systems is the presence of a set of nodes which must communicate with each other in order to perform their collective task. Consequently, the behaviour of the network plays a key role in determining how the distributed system will act as a whole, but support for realistic simulation of network communication may not be available in simulators that focus on higher-level phenomena, such as the execution of a program on the n

Market research conducted in Germany, have shown that Germans are hesitating to adopt to the digital offered banking services.

The limited efficiency of current PEDOT:PSS/Si solar cells were basically due to the facts that the heterojunction was located on the front of the cell, resulting in a parasitic light absorption within the organic material. In addition, the rear surface of those front-junction solar cells was usually poorly passivated. To overcome above difficulties, one must pla
