Los materiales ferroeléctricos presentan una serie de propiedades que les hace apropiados para un gran número de aplicaciones. Estos materiales presentan dos estados de polarización de igual energía entre los que se puede transitar mediante la aplicación de un campo…

Eighty years after the discovery of penicillin, the interest of this ß-lactam antibiotic at industrial level is still remarkable. Despite the good background knowledge, little is known on how Penicillin chrysogenum became a good penicillin overproducer, and much of the…

Resource management and performance models constitute important aspects for parallel applications' performance analysis and tuning. Defining performance models associated with the application structure has been proven useful for implementing dynamic tuning tools. However, for extending this strategy to complex pplications…

Understanding how materials deform and break is a subject of critical importance in industry. At the same time, it requires from the knowledge of the basic processes governing the phenomenon and hence, fundamental physics research is a must. The presence…

From the earliest hardware and software days to the internet era, complexity of computer systems has been something computer scientists, engineers, and programmers have had to deal with. Important fields of research and technology have originated, developed, or matured as…
