International Conference on Frontiers of Energy, Environmental Materials and Civil Engineering (FEEMCE 2013)
The main objective of FEEMCE 2013 is to provide a platform for researchers, engineers, academicians as well as industrial professionals from all over the world to present their research results and development activities in Energy, Environmental Materials and Civil Engineering. This conference provides opportunities for the delegates to exchange new ideas and experiences face to face, to establish business or research relations and to find global partners for future collaboration.
Advances in Usability Evaluation Part I
This volume covers the use of ergonomics modeling and on the evaluation of usability, which is a critical aspect of any human-technology system. It will provide new training methods that enhance performance, expand capabilities, and optimize the fit between people and technology.
Advances in Usability Evaluation
Successful interaction with products, tools, and technologies depends on usable designs, accommodating the needs of potential users and does not require costly training. In this context, Advances in Usability Evaluation Part I discusses emerging concepts, theories, and applications of human factors knowledge focusing on the discovery and understanding of human interaction with products and systems for their improvement. The book covers devices and their interfaces, focusing on optimization of user devices and emphasizing visual and haptic feedback. It then discusses user studies, exploring the limits and capabilities of special populations, particularly the elderly, which can influence the d...
Gold and Power in Ancient Costa Rica, Panama, and Colombia
The lands between Mesoamerica and the Central Andes are famed for the rich diversity of ancient cultures that inhabited them. Throughout this vast region, from about AD 700 until the sixteenth-century Spanish invasion, a rich and varied tradition of goldworking was practiced. The amount of gold produced and worn by native inhabitants was so great that Columbus dubbed the last New World shores he sailed as Costa Rica—the "Rich Coast." Despite the long-recognized importance of the region in its contribution to Pre-Columbian culture, very few books are readily available, especially in English, on these lands of gold. Gold and Power in Ancient Costa Rica, Panama, and Colombia now fills that ga...
Advances in Ergonomics In Design, Usability & Special Populations: Part II
Successful interaction with products, tools and technologies depends on usable designs and accommodating the needs of potential users without requiring costly training. In this context, this book is concerned with emerging ergonomics in design concepts, theories and applications of human factors knowledge focusing on the discovery, design and understanding of human interaction and usability issues with products and systems for their improvement. This book will be of special value to a large variety of professionals, researchers and students in the broad field of human modeling and performance who are interested in feedback of devices’ interfaces (visual and haptic), user-centered design, and design for special populations, particularly the elderly. We hope this book is informative, but even more - that it is thought provoking. We hope it inspires, leading the reader to contemplate other questions, applications, and potential solutions in creating good designs for all.
Las ciudades olvidadas. Las sociedades originarias de la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta
Este trabajo tiene como objetivo principal el análisis de las dinámicas sociales y posibles patrones y modelos de ocupación espacial desarrollados por los distintos grupos culturales que habitaron la denominada área cultural Tairona, en la Sierra Nevada de Santa Marta, en un marco cronológico que abarca aproximadamente desde el siglo X hasta los años finales del siglo XVI. Se han usado como fuentes los principales trabajos arqueológicos desarrollados en la región, los documentos del Archivo General de Indias de Sevilla, del Archivo General de la Nación en Bogotá y de la Biblioteca Nacional de Madrid, los informes, mapas, diseños, proyectos y cuadernos de trabajo conservados en la ...
