A informática está tornando-se um instrumento essencial dentro da Administração Pública. Até o ponto de que se pode falar de um novo agente público. A automação administrativa como fenômeno induzido pelo uso da informática e as tecnologias de tratamento da informação no exercício da função administrativa por parte da Administração são, hoje, aspectos presentes e irreversíveis. Ela dispensa o agente público da tarefa, comumente, daquelas que são massificadas e repetitivas. Inclusive, ninguém questiona as vantagens que o uso da tecnologia representa à Administração, inclusive, é atualmente indispensável. Entre as vantagens, chamam a atenção a racionalidade e a mod...
O ano, 2022. Na China, o sistema computacional inteligente “Sos” já está conectado às mesas de trabalho de todos os juízes do país e lhes fornece, para cada caso concreto, orientações acerca de que legislação e jurisprudência aplicar. O juiz humano ainda não precisa, a esta altura, necessariamente acatar o padrão decisório produzido pelo sistema, mas é obrigado, acaso opte por rejeitar a orientação do modelo, a registrar por escrito as razões de sua discordância, para fins de posterior auditoria. Fora do âmbito do processo, os algoritmos computacionais também já estão por toda parte. Companhias de concessão de créditos os utilizam para analisar o comportamento dos...
This book is a comprehensive guide to the epidemiology and methodology involved in sports injury research, including detailed background on epidemiological methods employed in research on sports injuries and discussions on key methodological issues.
The “Groupe International de Recherche sur l’Infinitésimal” (GIRI) was created in 1986 by Professor Madeleine Bastide and Doctor René Halm. Madeleine Bastide was its President for several years. The group comprises actually more than 100 researchers from different disciplines (physicians, chemists, biologists, pharmacologists, physicists, etc. ) from 22 different countries. The original aim, which, for the most part, has now been achieved, was to create a working group to exchange ideas and results concerning the effects of very low doses and high dilutions. Madeleine Bastide then proposed to publish a collection of the lectures given at their scientific meetings in a bilingual book ...
The Atlantic Forest is one of the 36 hotspots for biodiversity conservation worldwide. It is a unique, large biome (more than 3000 km in latitude; 2500 in longitude), marked by high biodiversity, high degree of endemic species and, at the same time, extremely threatened. Approximately 70% of the Brazilian population lives in the area of this biome, which makes the conflict between biodiversity conservation and the sustainability of the human population a relevant issue. This book aims to cover: 1) the historical characterization and geographic variation of the biome; 2) the distribution of the diversity of some relevant taxa; 3) the main threats to biodiversity, and 4) possible opportunities to ensure the biodiversity conservation, and the economic and social sustainability. Also, it is hoped that this book can be useful for those involved in the development of public policies aimed at the conservation of this important global biome.
The problems related to the process of industrialisation such as biodiversity depletion, climate change and a worsening of health and living conditions, especially but not only in developing countries, intensify. Therefore, there is an increasing need to search for integrated solutions to make development more sustainable. The United Nations has acknowledged the problem and approved the “2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”. On 1st January 2016, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the Agenda officially came into force. These goals cover the three dimensions of sustainable development: economic growth, social inclusion and environmental protection. The Encyclopedia of the U...
This engaging and clearly written textbook/reference provides a must-have introduction to the rapidly emerging interdisciplinary field of data science. It focuses on the principles fundamental to becoming a good data scientist and the key skills needed to build systems for collecting, analyzing, and interpreting data. The Data Science Design Manual is a source of practical insights that highlights what really matters in analyzing data, and provides an intuitive understanding of how these core concepts can be used. The book does not emphasize any particular programming language or suite of data-analysis tools, focusing instead on high-level discussion of important design principles. This easy...
A reference guide to the vast array of art song literature and composers from Latin America, this book introduces the music of Latin America from a singer's perspective and provides a basis for research into the songs of this richly musical area of the world. The book is divided by country into 22 chapters, with each chapter containing an introductory essay on the music of the region, a catalog of art songs for that country, and a list of publishers. Some chapters include information on additional sources. Singers and teachers may use descriptive annotations (language, poet) or pedagogical annotations (range, tessitura) to determine which pieces are appropriate for their voices or programming needs, or those of their students. The guide will be a valuable resource for vocalists and researchers, however familiar they may be with this glorious repertoire.
