El presente compendio es una obra dedicada al envejecimiento, que busca evidenciar la primera versión del Programa del Posgrado de Geriatría y Gerontología que, desde el año 2015, se impartió en la Pontificia Universidad Católica del Ecuador (PUCE), como parte de los 18 programas de especialidades médicas de la Facultad de Medicina. La primera versión de Geriatría y Gerontología se desarrolló con 5 cohortes. En Ecuador, esta especialidad es ofertada únicamente en una Institución educativa superior: la PUCE, que fomenta la formación de profesionales en esta rama con énfasis en la investigación en adultos mayores, un grupo vulnerable de la sociedad. En el programa, los estudian...
This handbook focuses on and compares the education systems in the three Americas: North, Central and South America, and includes a chapter on most countries in the region. The chapters follow a common structure and include schematic diagrams of the structure of mainstream education from pre-primary to tertiary level. Each chapter starts with a description of the historical and social foundations of the education system from the post-World War II period up to today, including political, economic and cultural contexts and conditions. By highlighting important dates and structural decisions, the current education system can be understood as resulting from past developments. The first part ends...
This book constitutes the proceedings of the 1st International Conference on Advances in Emerging Trends and Technologies (ICAETT 2019), held in Quito, Ecuador, on 29–31 May 2019, jointly organized by Universidad Tecnológica Israel, Universidad Técnica del Norte, and Instituto Tecnológico Superior Rumiñahui, and supported by SNOTRA. ICAETT 2019 brought together top researchers and practitioners working in different domains of computer science to share their expertise and to discuss future developments and potential collaborations. Presenting high-quality, peer-reviewed papers, the book discusses the following topics: Technology Trends Electronics Intelligent Systems Machine Vision Communication Security e-Learning e-Business e-Government and e-Participation
This book discusses the biological control of weeds using arthropods, providing ecological management models for use across the tropical world.
This research was designed and conducted through partnerships with national agricultural scientists. The primary objective was to listen to farmers and understand the various factors that constrain pest management decisions and practices on-farm.
The CRC Handbook of Solubility Parameters and Other Cohesion Parameters, Second Edition, which includes 17 new sections and 40 new data tables, incorporates information from a vast amount of material published over the last ten years. The volume is based on a bibliography of 2,900 reports, including 1,200 new citations. The detailed, careful construction of the handbook develops the concept of solubility parameters from empirical, thermodynamic, and molecular points of view and demonstrates their application to liquid, gas, solid, and polymer systems.
Pest management has long been a problem for farmers worldwide and new techniques are continually being developed to reduce the adverse effects of pest populations. The use of areawide pest management has increased dramatically over the past decade and offers potential advantages to traditional and more localized approaches. Suppression over a broad area can reduce re-infestation of previously treated areas and the specific pest management techniques may be more effective when applied over larger areas. Providing the first comprehensive discussion of areawide pest management, this book will explore the theoretical development and implementation of techniques from a worldwide perspective. Areas covered include history and development, biological and ecological impacts and recent case studies of pest management programmes.
Emphasizing water-soluble polyelectrolytes, this textbook covers the synthesis of all important classes of these polymers as well as the current techniques for their macromolecular and electrochemical characterization.
