Chromobacterium violaceum is a ?-proteobacteria commonly found around tropical and subtropical regions throughout the globe. It produces many metabolites with biotechnological properties such as antitumoral peptides, antibiotics and polymers that have potential to replace the oil-based ones. Although it has been extensively studied over the past 40 years, there are many aspects of C. violaceum that remains unclear until today. We have conducted a biochemical study on the homologous recombination (HR) machinery of C. violaceum, mainly in RecA and its paralog, RadA/Sms. We performed in vitro assays from initial and late steps of HR such as D-loop formation and branch migration, respectively, with their corresponding molecular actors and how RadA/Sms influenced each one. We observed cvRadA/Sms influences negatively D-loop formation promoted by cvRecA and through pull-down assay we have observed an interaction between these two proteins. We also observed the DNA-binding preference of cvRadA/Sms and cvRecA and observed that this protein binds preferentially to dsDNA instead ssDNA, unlike cvRecA. No involvement of cvRadA/Sms on branch migration reactions was detected. In this work, we also described, for the first time, the isolation, sequencing and annotation of a new plasmid from C. violaceum, which we named ChVi1 and has 44,236 base pairs, 39 predicted open reading frames (ORFs) and, possibly, two origins of replication. Most of the ORFs codes for hypothetical and structural bacteriophage proteins. By using restriction digestion and Next-generation sequencing (NGS) we also looked for the presence of a similar plasmid in other seven C. violaceum strains isolated from amazon region. Our analysis suggest the presence of a plasmid similar to ChVi1 in two of these strains. The present work describes for the first time a biochemical characterization of RadA/Sms and RecA from C. violaceum which have different roles in HR. Moreover, the discovery of ChVi1 opens a path to further explore C. violaceum?s biology.

Full textProduct innovation has transformed the minds of business people because of its ability to increase productivity. Other than increased productivity it also allows companies to extend the range of the available products to consumers as well as lowering the prices consumers have to pay. Product innovation if managed correctly will create wealth and reward risk-taking by means of technological development throughout organisational processes. SMEs fail to manage product innovation because they are unable to cope with pressures exerted by external factors as well as lack business management skills. This then impacts on the level of innovation that takes place in a company. A lack of innovation and sound leadership skills often leads to very little strategic vision in the company. This influences the commitment of the workforce and often causes the downfall of a company. Case study methodology was used to collect and analyze the data, which was drawn from an empirical study covering nine engineering companies which practices NPD (New Product Development). Observation, questionnaire and personal interviews were used to collect relevant data for analysis. In addition, the SPSS 14.0 was utilized in order to generate frequencies, tables, and in particular graphics, as the researcher believes that graphics are helpful and easy to make the analysis more understandable. The paper aims to investigate whether SMEEs in the Western Cape are using key NPD success factors to deal with the environmental uncertainties that disturb the management of NPD. The findings of the study indicated that the principles of key NPD success factors were found to be in place in the SMEEs in the Western Cape. All the managers who took part in the survey showed determination and commitment towards the success of their organizations. Those SMEEs proved that their existence was meant to satisfy the needs of their customers. Those managers also showed that they knew exactly what their customers needed. Employees in those organizations worked as a team and produced good quality products that satisfied their customers. Those organizations started small but grew with time as the needs of their customers continuously changed. The growth in those organizations was seen in the number of employees employed from time to time.

Full textFor faster acquisition in bursted environments for SMS (Short Messaging Service) and other lower-bit rate applications, non-coherent detection techniques are proposed. Non-Coherent detection demodulators are proposed because faster acquisition capability in bursted environments can result in a reduced amount of preamble bits in the messaging frame, i.e. less overhead, resulting in an effective increase in spectral efficiency. Reducing the preamble can also provide performance enhancement opportunities for Feher Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (FQPSK) [1] and for other systems. The preamble can also be varied to provide for better Bit Error Rate (BER) performance. The lower bit rate environment also gives the opportunity to employ simpler architectures in lieu of preamble modification. Several non-coherent detection alternatives are described.

Full textThe aim of this thesis work was to investigate theadsorption of surfactants to different nonpolar interfaces.Particularly, the effects of the polar group and the nature ofthe hydrophobic interface were elucidated. The interfacialbehavior of the liquid-vapor interface was investigated bymeans of surface tension measurements. Here the effect of thepolar group and the hydrocarbon chain length was investigatedin a systematic manner. It was found that the shorter of thetwo chains examined, decyl, generated a larger surface pressurecontribution than the longer, dodecyl. Furthermore, the sugarbased surfactants behaved differently as compared to theethylene oxide based ones. The former could be modelled byassuming a hard disc behavior of the head group while thelatter displayed polymeric behavior. The influence of saltconcentration on the surface tension behavior of an ionicsurfactant, sodium dodecyl sulphate, was investigated. Theresult could be rationalized by employing the Gouy- Chapmanmodel to the polar region. Furthermore, mixtures of two sugarbased surfactants were investigated by surface tensionmeasurements and the adsorbed amount of the two components atthe interface atdifferent concentrations and fractions in thebulk were obtained by applying the Gibbs surface tensionequation. It was found that the molecule with the smaller headgroup adsorbed preferentially, and more so as the totalsurfactant concentration was increased. These findings could beexplained by considering the interactions generated by thedifferent head groups. The adsorption of sugar surfactants toan isolated hydrophobic surface was studied by means of wettingmeasurements and the behavior was similar to that at theliquid-vapor interface. Wetting isotherms were measured on twodifferent hydrophobic surfaces where the covalently attachedhydrophobic layers were in a crystalline and fluid state,respectively. The wetting results revealed that the sugarsurfactants anchored in the fluid hydrophobic layer. This had asignificant influence on the force profile. For example, at thecrystalline surface the surfactant monolayers were easilyremoved as the surface came into contact at relatively lowapplied loads. This was not the case when the hydrophobic layerwas in a fluid state. Here a significant fraction of thesurfactants remained between the surfaces. Disjoining pressureisotherms were measured using a sugar based surfactant thatwere thoroughly purified and compared to the as receivedsample. Even the purified sample showed a double-layer forcealthough lower as compared to the as received, one. Asignificant difference in foam stability was also observed.

Full textMany companies are currently focusing on how to stay innovative, how to innovate and how to create an innovation climate in their companies. Why is innovation vital to companies? New Product Development (NPD) can be a key factor in this regard. Companies believe that NPD is their life blood; it can be the better way to survive firmly and be more competitive. In addition, the strategy of how to manage NPD process effectively and efficiently is becoming a powerful way of achieving a competitive edge. As Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) play a significant role in South African economic development, it is critical for companies especially (SMEs) to seek an ideal way to manage innovation productively. However, to be innovative is not easy for any organization and it should be managed effectively. The effective management of innovation and NPD in SMEs is investigated in this study. Innovation and NPD has already become the key drivers of sustainability and competitiveness for many companies especially SMEs. Innovation and NPD as the main subjects that are carefully studied, discussed and understood in larger corporations and multinational enterprises. It would appear that the same cannot always be said when it comes to SMEs.

Full textIn this research, we are interested in the issue of the non-usage of technology. As a first step, we investe in the study of the different forms of refusal that certain information and communication techniques were confronted with across history. As a second step, and on basis of a field study, we analyse the reasons of Internet usage refusal. In this technological world, there are not only users but also non-users, recalcitrants who refuse this tool: refuse in the sense to reject, not agree to it, not agree to adopt it and to use it. We want throughout this job to understand the reasons for such refusal. This phenomenon should not be considered to be a dysfunction but a fact that must be explained and that can have respectable reasons. The refusal seems visceral and irrational, merely because the technical novelty frightens. But it also proceeds from a reflection, an analysis, a set of opinions and thoughtful ideas. Definitely, the refusal of the Internet seems to cover a multitude of parameters. Several explicative elements of technical, psychological, cognitive, cultural and ideological order were identified during our inquiry

Full textQuinta dos Termos1 is a Portuguese family-owned SME, producing biological wines from Beira Interior. The roots of the company go back to 1945, but it was only in the XXI century, under the management of João Carvalho, that the company adopted a formal business approach and expanded its sales. Nowadays, Quinta dos Termos produces and sells award-winning D.O.C. wines from Beira Interior targeted at the premium and upper premium segments, to clients across the country. Facing a stagnant market in its maturity stage at home, the company has acknowledged the need to find new markets abroad and is willing to commit the necessary resources to do so. After performing an extensive analysis of the company and scanning for the most attractive international markets, it has been defined that the company should export its wines to the U.S.A, particularly, the metropolitan area comprising New York, New Jersey and Edison. This Work Project substantiates the attractiveness of the U.S. wine market and provides recommendations on the strategy to be pursued by Quinta dos Termos.

As tecnologias de mem?rias n?o-vol?teis s?o uma grande promessa na ?rea de arquitetura de computadores e ? esperado que sejam poderosas ferramentas para solucionar os problemas referentes a manipula??o eficiente de dados dos dias de hoje. Estas tecnologias prov?m alta performance e acesso em granularidade de bytes com a distinta vantagem de serem persistentes. Por?m, afim de explorar estas tecnologias em todo seu potencial, os sistemas e arquiteturas de hoje precisam buscar meios de se adaptar a esta nova forma de acessar dados e de superar os desafios que v?m com ela.Trabalhos existentes na ?rea j? prop?em m?todos para adaptar as arquiteturas existentes para o uso de NVM bem como formas inovadoras de empregar estas mem?rias em futuras aplica??es. No entanto, o suporte dos sistemas operacionais a estas solu??es, ainda que existente, ainda ? muito limitado. Neste trabalho, n?s apresentamos duas varia??es da chamada de sistema msync, modeladas para explorar as caracter?sticas das tecnologias de NVM e garantir consist?ncia para os dados dos usu?rios. Ambas s?o solu??es simples que permitem aos usu?rios definirem checkpoints de seus arquivos usando a sintaxe comum de sistemas de arquivos. N?s implementamos e testamos estes m?todos sobre o sistema operacional Linux utilizando como base um sistema de arquivo nativamente voltado a NVM. Nossos resultados mostram que estes mecanismos s?o capazes de garantir a integridade dos arquivos mesmo na presen?a de falhas no sistema enquanto mant?m uma performance razo?vel.
Upcoming non-volatile memory technologies are a big promise in computer architecture and are expected to be powerful tools to address today?s issues regarding efficient data manipulation. They provide high performance and byte granularity while also having the distinct advantage of being persistent. However in order to explore these technologies to their full potential, existing systems and architecture must adapt to this new way of working with data and workaround the challenges that come with it. Existing work in the area already proposes methods to adapt existing architecture to NVM as well as innovative ways to employ these memories in future applications. However operating system support to such NVM-enabled solutions, although existent, still very limited. In this work, we present two variations of the existing mmap system call, designed to both explore NVM characteristics and provide user data consistency. Both are very simple solutions that allow users to control the persistence and define checkpoints to their files while using the common mapped file syntax. We have implemented and tested these methods over Linux using a NVM file system as our base. Our results show that these mechanisms can ensure file integrity in the presence of system failures while also providing a reasonable performance.

Full textChecking behavior is essential to maximizing gain and/or minimizing loss in our daily lives and relies on a normal action monitoring process. Although several studies have explored the neurobiological basis of doubt and uncertainty, both the physiology and physiopathology of checking, its most manifest behavioral consequence, remain poorly understood. This PhD project aims at characterizing physiological doubt and checking behavior in non-human primates. To do so, we trained two rhesus monkeys at a newly designed Check-or-Go task that allows the animal to multiple-check and change the availability of a reward before taking the final decision leading to that reward. During the task, we recorded frontal EEG activity and single neuronal activity in the rostral part of the ACC (CMAr), and the pre-supplementary motor area (pre-SMA), and quantified salivary cortisol in order to correlate this biological marker of anxiety with checking behavior. Our results show that, as humans, monkeys have the metacognitive ability to express voluntary checking behavior that depends on uncertainty monitoring, relates to anxiety and involves brain frontal areas

Full textThis thesis is about the nonlocal properties of permuation symmetric states and the potential usefulness of such properties in quantum information processing. The nonlocality of almost all symmetric states, except Dicke states is shown by constructing an $n$-party Hardy paradox. With the help of the Majorana representation, suitable measurement settings can be chosen for these symmetric states which satisfy the paradox. An extended CH inequality can be derived from the probabilistic conditions of the paradox. The inequality is shown to be violated by all symmetric states. The nonlocality properties and entanglement properties of symmetric states are also discussed and compared, natbly with respect to persistency and monogamy. It is shown that te degeneracy of some symmetric states is linked to the persistency, which provides a way to use device independent tests to separte nonlocality classes. It is also shown that the inequalities used to show the nonlocality of all symmetric states are not strictly monogamous.A new inequality for Dicke states is shown to be monogamous when the number of parties goes to infinity. But all these inequalites can not detect genuine nonlocality. Applications of nonlocality to communication complexity and Bayesian game theory are also discussed

Full textIn 2001 and 2004, two multinational companies (MNC) of the pharmaceutical industry, respectively Bayer and Janssen, left its manufacture operations in Portugal. From its exit, other two Portuguese small and medium enterprises (SME) were born: Bluepharma and Lusomedicamenta. These companies have been highly successful due to the representativeness of exports, contract-manufacturing and generic production. This report intents to study the exit of the MNC and the implementation of the Portuguese SMEs.

Full textEsta tesis trata sobre el comportamiento de perfiles tubulares conformados en fío de acero inoxidable y propone expresiones de diseño alternativas y más eficientes. Un diseño eficiente de las estructuras de acero inoxidable, junto con sus adecuadas propiedades mecánicas y resistencia a la corrosión, hacen de este material una atractiva alternativa frente al acero al carbono para aplicaciones estructurales. Se ha realizado un estudio exhaustivo del comportamiento tensodeformacional de diferentes tipos de acero inoxidable, así como de los modelos analíticos que caracterizan su comportamiento. El estudio se basa en más de 600 curvas experimentales de material extraídas de la literatura y complementadas con 42 ensayos. Los resultados ponen en evidencia que el modelo material actualmente recogido en el Anejo C de la EN1993-1-4 (2006) representa adecuadamente el comportamiento tensodeformacional de diferentes grados y tipos de material. No obstante, se han propuesto nuevas expresiones para la determinación de los coeficientes de no linealidad n y m, así como para la predicción de la resistencia y deformación últimas de los aceros inoxidables ferríticos. La tesis también describe una campaña experimental en elementos tubulares de acero inoxidable ferrítico EN1.4003. Tras la medición de la geometría e imperfecciones iniciales, se procedió a la caracterización del comportamiento de las regiones planas y de esquina mediante 20 ensayos de material. El comportamiento seccional se ha estudiado mediante 10 ensayos de elementos cortos a compresión y 16 sometidos a flexocompresión, realizando también 8 ensayos sobre vigas biapoyadas sometidas a flexión pura y 4 sometidas a gradientes de flexión. El comportamiento a nivel de elemento se ha caracterizado mediante 12 ensayos de pilares sometidos a compresión y flexocompresión y el estudio sobre la capacidad de redistribución de estructuras de acero inoxidable ferrítico se ha basado en 9 vigas continuas. El comportamiento de los grados austeníticos, ferríticos y duplex se ha estudiado también mediante los modelos de elementos finitos previamente validados a partir de los ensayos realizados. La valoración de las expresiones de diseño actualmente recogidas en las diferentes normativas se ha llevado a cabo mediante la comparación de los resultados numéricos y experimentales con las cargas predichas para diferentes estados de carga. Dichos resultados han puesto de manifiesto que las resistencias predichas por las normativas son considerablemente conservadoras tanto para secciones robustas como esbeltas, puesto que no se tienen en cuenta los efectos de endurecimiento por deformación y el comportamiento de abolladura no está correctamente caracterizado. Por consiguiente, se ha propuesto un nuevo método de diseño basado en el Direct Strength Method (DSM) para secciones y elementos de acero inoxidable, aplicable en todo el rango de esbelteces y que emplea una misma curva de resistencia para los distintos casos de carga. Se ha demostrado que la nueva propuesta proporciona mejores resultados tanto a nivel seccional como en elementos y su fiabilidad se ha demostrado mediante el correspondiente análisis estadístico, permitiendo su inclusión en las normativas de diseño. Por último, se ha estudiado la aplicabilidad de los métodos de diseño basados en el cálculo global plástico en vigas continuas de acero inoxidable. El estudio ha demostrado que pese a que la consideración de métodos basados en cálculos elásticos proporciona resultados notablemente conservadores, los métodos tradicionales de diseño plástico pueden ser utilizados junto con la definición de Clase 1 actualmente recogida en EN1993-1-4 (2006). No obstante, también se ha demostrado que la mejor predicción de resistencia viene dada por aquellos métodos que incorporan tanto la redistribución de esfuerzos como los efectos de endurecimiento por deformación, como son el Continuous Strength Method o el método propuesto basado en el DSM
