En el siguiente artículo se exponen las ideas de Auguste Comte sobre la Filosofía de la Historia a través
de la Ley de los Tres Estados, analizando los rasgos distintivos de cada etapa, en especial el tipo de
conocimiento que…

Discussion of the natural sciences had a foundational role in the development of the sociology of race and racism, underpinning the claim that races should, if at all, be studied as social rather than natural phenomena. Whatever its strengths, the…

This dissertation explains how the Indian Constitution that came into force in 1950, became part of the lived experience of ordinary Indians during the transition from the colonial state to the postcolonial republic. The Constitution by expanding the powers of…

This paper discusses the impact of globalization on public health practice. Neoliberal supremacy has resulted in both greater interdependence between countries and increasing inequalities. Globalization of health risks and the dependence of local health conditions on external forces precludes the…

Childhood obesity is heavily documented as a public health crisis in the United
States. Today, more than one-third of American youth can be medically classified as
overweight or obese. Of those children, a disproportionately high number are Hispanic.
There is…

In this paper an adaptive fuzzy decentralized
control algorithm for trajectory tracking of robot manipulators is developed. The proposed decentralized control algorithm allows the overall closed-loop system to be stabilized while making the tracking error to be uniformly ultimately bounded…

Using the underlying idea of the current-mode control, a new dynamical, sliding-mode control for the boost dc-dc converter is proposed. Such controller is easy to design, robust under load and input voltage variations, exhibits fast response, does not depend on…

In this work two declarative approaches based on the BDI theory are studied, an agent programming language 3APL and an agent architecture that uses defeasible argumentation for knowledge representation and reasoning. Based on that study and considering that in 3APL…

The ambiguity, robustness and performance of systems becomes increasingly evident as the complexity and size increase in industrial processes. Under these circumstances, conventional control techniques such as PID control, nonlinear feedback control, LQG control and H∞ control have several disadvantages…

This document describes a general structure for the implementation of virtual tools for remote calculation through Internet. Two virtual tools for mathematical analysis
(Analys) and simulation of dynamic systems (SimWeb), supported by the Matlab c, are described. These virtual tools,…
