Applied Computer Sciences in Engineering
This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 8th Workshop on Engineering Applications, WEA 2021, held in Medellín, Colombia, in October 2021. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic the conference was held in a hybrid mode. The 33 revised full papers and 11 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 127 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: computational intelligence; bioengineering; Internet of Things (IoT); optimization and operations research; engineering applications.
Ars crudelis : una aproximacion a la relacion estetica y crueldad en el arte actual
El presente trabajo de investigación pretende, ante todo, establecer una reflexión en torno a la relación entre Estética y Crueldad en el Arte Actual, en el sentido de tomar al arte más allá de todo afán periodizador o canonizante. Y en un punto crucial de esta reflexión, el asunto del Cuerpo, como elemento fundamental de la historia de Occidente. La relación establecida se contextualiza en el marco de las grandes defunciones: De Dios, del Hombre, del Arte ... Que plantean la quiebra de los metarrelatos y la emergencia de la multiplicidad de los discursos, la hiperinformación, el consumo masivo y la tribalización como paradojas de un mundo globalizado. En este contexto se pretende ubicar el núcleo de la reflexión en ciernes: ¿Cómo se articula la relación entre Estética y Crueldad en el Arte Actual? ¿Cuál es la situación del arte que involucra como su tema el cuerpo martirizado? ¿Cuál es la función que parece ejercer este arte que recrea la Crueldad? Es así como a lo largo de los cinco ...
The Neurocognition of Translation and Interpreting
This groundbreaking work offers a comprehensive account of brain-based research on translation and interpreting. First, the volume introduces the methodological and conceptual pillars of psychobiological approaches vis-à-vis those of other cognitive frameworks. Next, it systematizes neuropsychological, neuroscientific, and behavioral evidence on key topics, including the lateralization of networks subserving cross-linguistic processes; their relation with other linguistic mechanisms; the functional organization and temporal dynamics of the circuits engaged by different translation directions, processing levels, and source-language units; the system’s susceptibility to training-induced pla...

Drug Trafficking, Corruption and States
Drug Trafficking, Corruption and States is cutting edge research. Garay Salamanca and Salcedo-Albarán, along with their contributing authors help document the transition from economic to political imperatives within transnational drug cartels. The break from the Zetas by La Familia Michoacana is one example contained in their empirical survey. Social Network Analysis is their tool for illuminating the varying dynamics of cartel-state inter-penetration and reconfiguration. In doing so they clearly discern between State Capture (StC) and Co-opted State Reconfiguration (CStR). As the drug wars and criminal insurgencies rage in the Americas and beyond, this seminal framework will facilitate efforts by scholars, law enforcement officials, intelligence analysts and policymakers to understand shifts in sovereignty, and to illuminate the mechanisms of transnational illicit networks and their interaction with the state.
Algebraic Geometry
An introduction to abstract algebraic geometry, with the only prerequisites being results from commutative algebra, which are stated as needed, and some elementary topology. More than 400 exercises distributed throughout the book offer specific examples as well as more specialised topics not treated in the main text, while three appendices present brief accounts of some areas of current research. This book can thus be used as textbook for an introductory course in algebraic geometry following a basic graduate course in algebra. Robin Hartshorne studied algebraic geometry with Oscar Zariski and David Mumford at Harvard, and with J.-P. Serre and A. Grothendieck in Paris. He is the author of "Residues and Duality", "Foundations of Projective Geometry", "Ample Subvarieties of Algebraic Varieties", and numerous research titles.
