RESUMO: O conhecimento do comportamento hidrossedimentológico de uma bacia hidrográfica é fundamental para a adequada gestão e uso de seus recursos hídricos. Este traballho objetivou realizar, a partir dos dados hidrossedimentométricos da Bacia do Rio Piquiri, um diagnóstico sobre o…

Au cours de leur croissance, les jeunes sont exposés à des facteurs de risques de maladies associés aux habitudes de vie, notamment celles alimentaires. Les interventions scolaires mises en place en vue de modifier leurs comportements nutritionnels sont plus efficaces…

En este trabajo se establece un acercamiento conceptual entre el constructo deconstrucción desde la perspectiva del desaprendizaje y la teoría de la equilibración de Piaget como marcos explicativos acerca de la construcción de conocimiento en el sujeto. Primeramente, se presenta…

Les interventions proactives ou comportementales en classe sont reconnues empiriquement pour leur efficacité à améliorer le comportement ou le rendement scolaire des enfants ayant un TDAH (DuPaul & Eckert, 1997; Hoza, Kaiser, & Hurt, 2008; Pelham & Fabiano, 2008; Zentall,…

Characterization of defect is one of the important objectives of nondestructive evaluation (NDE) for condition assessment of structures. Among many other NDE techniques, ultrasonic methods play a prominent role in the both quantitative and qualitative assessment of discontinuities in reinforced…

We propose a framework for studying the effect of KDD on CRM in the Egyptian banking sector. We believe that the KDD process and applications may perform a significant role in Egyptian banks to improve CRM, in particular for customer…

Heavily used in the manufacture of integrated circuits, chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP) is becoming an enabling technology for microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). To reliably use CMP in the manufacturing process, designers must be able to accurately predict the CMP process and control…

Direct wafer bonding has emerged as an important technology in the manufacture of silicon-on-insulator substrates (SOI), microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), and three-dimensional integrated circuits (3D IC's). While the process is currently employed in applications such as these, a lack of knowledge…

The contribution of this thesis is to provide a tractable framework for supply chains and revenue management problems subject to uncertainty that gives insight into the structure of the optimal policy and requires little knowledge of the underlying probability distributions.…

The goal of the work reported here is to capture the commonsense knowledge of non-expert human contributors. Achieving this goal will enable more intelligent human-computer interfaces and pave the way for computers to reason about our world. In the domain…
