Abstract:

Faithful aggregated accounts of the advancement of science are invaluable for those setting scientific policy as well as scholars of the history of science. As science develops the scholarly communityiÌ s determination of the accepted knowledge undergoes shifts. Within medicine these shifts include our understanding of what can cause disease and what defines specific disease entities. Shifts in accepted medical knowledge are captured in the medical literature.

Abstract:

The aim of this study is to analyse how children’s literature for ages 6 – 8 is adapted to pupils with reading difficulties. The material used for analysis in this study is six children’s books, examining some of the criteria by which a text is classified as easy-to-read. The result of the analysis shows that there is a possibility for pupils with reading difficulties to read something other than easy-to-read literature if it is carefully selected. The result also shows that the different criteria for an easy-to-read text cannot alone indicate whether a book as a whole is easy-to-read or not.

Abstract:

With the end of Moore's Law, computer architects have turned to multicore architecture to provide high performance. Unfortunately, to achieve higher performance, multicores require programs to be parallelized which is an untamed problem. Amdahl's law tells that the maximum theoretical speedup of a program is dictated by the size of the non-parallelizable section of a program. Hence to achieve higher performance, programmers need to reduce the size of sequential code in the program. This thesis explores asynchronous work as a means to reduce sequential portions of program.

Approximately 3.6 million individuals in the UK are involved in a type of shift-work which impinges on the normal nocturnal sleeping period. This prevalence has significance considering that shift-work is a risk factor for many health problems including cardiovascular disease, breast cancer, metabolic syndrome, obesity and gastrointestinal symptoms (e.g., constipation). These health inequalities are generally under-researched. Past studies have also focused on chrono-biological related reasons (e.g., exposure to light at night) rather than lifestyle factors.

The empirical finding is that the world economic elite is subject to a low degree of circulation. Despite increased globalization, liberalization, longterm economic g

However, that differs completely from the view of the social model of disability that states that disability comes from the social barriers and not from the persons.

Abstract:

Patterns, sequences of variables, have traditionally only been studied when morphic images of them appear as factors in words. In this thesis, we initiate a study of patterns in words that appear as subwords of words. We say that a pattern appears in a word if each pattern variable can be morphically mapped to a factor in the word. To gain insight into the complexity of, and similarities between, words, we define pattern indices and distances between two words relative a given set of patterns. The distance is defined as the minimum number of pattern insertions and/or removals that transform on

Even though the WTO is not an environmental entity, environmental issues take part of its interests.In this article, the author analyzes the main rules and legal instruments generated within the World Trade Organization, including several multilateral agreements that impact and influence in the treatment of environmental issues.<br>La protección y preservación del medio ambiente constituye uno de los objetivos que promueve la

Abstract:

Se intenta ofrecer una explicación sociocultural del programa romanista del Inca Garcilaso en función de sus coordenadas biográficas (peruana y española), analizando especialmente su destino andaluz, tanto por sus coordenadas sociales (conquista reciente del mundo islámico y presencia de conversos judíos) como por las propiamente culturales (clasicismo real y nobiliario, conexión con jesuitas). No se trata, pues, de una solución individual y aislada (por aristocrática), ni tampoco de una opción meramente literaria o religiosa (a pesar de expresarse en esa clave).<br>In this paper I offer a soc

Abstract:

G.E. Moore’s argument in Proof of an External World” seems to beg the question against the skeptic and to miss the point of the challenge posed by skeptical hypotheses. I propose an interpretation that frees the argument from both charges. Starting from a distinction between the way Moore understood his dialectical position against the idealist and the skeptic, I attempt to illuminate the conception of skepticism that lies behind his argument. I propose that the argument’s core is found in a strong anti-Cartesian statement, even though its relevance for epistemology is to be found in its poten

Thesis (PhD (For))--Stellenbosch University, 2012.<br>ENGLISH ABSTRACT: A primary reason for the existence of the forest industry is to provide a renewable and natural resource for much needed timber and fibre products. Substantial improvements in management practices are required to increase forest volume and pulp yields for increased demand. Eucalyptus grandis clonal trees of age 6.75 years, grown in a Nelder 1a spacing experiment, were sampled and analysed to describe the effect of planting density on i) growth and yield, ii) wood properties and iii) pulp and paper quality.

Abstract:

The authorities in charge of managing our Andean basins work in unimaginable water-powered landscapes from the Peruvian legislator point of view. They should generate and apply peculiar mechanisms. Why? Because the national legislator is traditionally positioned on the coast, a region very different to the Andean highlands and punas. The use of ethnographic evidence coming from a drainage basin in the Central Andes (Mantaro River, Junin) lets me depict in detail how public officers appeal to mechanisms of location, adaptation and regulation in order to adjust the official regulations, to cover

Abstract:

The ethics of responsibility presents itself today as anew ethics in the age of science and technology, against traditional ethics of duties. lts advantage is that, in the notion of responsibility, several related members may be distinguished: a subject of responsibility (individual or collective), a state-of-affairs and its consequences to respond to, and an instance of responsibility regarding which the subject is accountable. Yet the ethics of responsibility can only be effective if it reassumes determinations of the traditional ethics of duties, quite severed from it.<br>La ética de la res
