Seguimos teniendo las mismas instituciones y mecanismos internacionales que diseñamos luego de la segunda guerra mundial. Dichas instituciones se caracterizan por su fragmentación, disfunciones estructurales como la corrupción, falta de recursos y por una falta de capacidad institucional. El objetivo de este libro es evaluar los desafíos que enfrentan las instituciones internacionales en la protección de los derechos económicos, sociales y culturales. Más específicamente, busca detectar diferentes patrones en dos tipos de actores que incluyen las instituciones finan-cieras internacionales y las instituciones del sistema universal, como la Agencia de la Organización de las Naciones U...
This book presents the latest developments concerning techniques, tools, and methodologies in supply chain ecosystems. It gathers contributions from a variety of experts, who analyze a range of case studies and industrial sectors such as manufacturing, energy, agricultural, healthcare, humanitarian logistics, and urban goods distribution, to name but a few. The book is chiefly intended to meet the needs of two sectors: firstly, the academic sector, so as to familiarize students, professors, and researchers with the tools that are now being used to optimize supply chains; and secondly, the industrial and managerial sector, so that supply chain management practitioners can benefit from methods and tools that are yielding valuable results in other contexts.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 13th Colombian Conference on Computing, CCC 2018, held in Cartagena, Colombia, in September 2018. The 46 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 194 submissions. The papers deal with the following topics: information and knowledge management, software engineering and IT architectures, educational informatics, intelligent systems and robotics, human-computer interaction, distributed systems and large-scale architectures, image processing, computer vision and multimedia, security of the information, formal methods, computational logic, and theory of computation.
Roving vigilantes, fear-mongering politicians, hysterical pundits, and the looming shadow of a seven hundred-mile-long fence: the US–Mexican border is one of the most complex and dynamic areas on the planet today. Hyperborder provides the most nuanced portrait yet of this dynamic region. Author Fernando Romero presents a multidisciplinary perspective informed by interviews with numerous academics, researchers, and organizations. Provocatively designed in the style of other kinetic large-scale studies like Rem Koolhaas's Content and Bruce Mau’s Massive Change, Hyperborder is an exhaustively researched report from the front lines of the border debate.
"This book explores methods for reducing waste and cutting food loss in order to help the environment and support local communities as well as solve issues including that of land space. It also provides vital research on the development of plant-based foods, meat-alternative diets, and nutritional outcomes"--
This volume constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 6th Workshop on Engineering Applications, WEA 2019, held in Santa Marta, Colombia, in October 2019. The 62 revised full papers and 2 short papers presented in this volume were carefully reviewed and selected from 178 submissions. The papers are organized in the following topical sections: computer science; computational intelligence; bioengineering; Internet of things; power applications; simulation systems; optimization.
This book presents the proceedings of the Conference on Computer Science, Electronics and Industrial Engineering (CSEI 2019), held in Ambato in October 2019, with participants from 13 countries and guest speakers from Chile, Colombia, France, Japan, Spain, Portugal, and United States. Featuring 23 peer-reviewed papers, it discusses topics such as the use of metaheuristic for non-deterministic problem solutions, software architectures for supporting e-government initiatives, and the use of electronics in e-learning and industrial environments. It also includes contributions illustrating how new approaches on these converging research areas are impacting the development of human societies around the world into Society 5.0. As such, it is a valuable resource for scholars and practitioners alike.
