Fronteira enquanto evento histórico expõe sua relevância a partir das práticas sociais e culturais, responsáveis pela mecânica que coloca em ação múltiplas personagens, cujas performances enunciam infindáveis interesses. E é a partir dessa movimentação ao longo do tempo que a fronteira adquiriu condição de lugar dos limites e das possibilidades, importando fortemente sobre a enunciação do conceito anteriormente definido e definidor, agora como conceito aberto e de difícil lacração. É sob esse espírito que pesquisadores de distintas gerações, formações diversas e temas diferentes vêm se reunindo e dando movimento ao que é denominado de Seminário de Leituras de Fro...
Water has been an important topic in architecture and urban planning for years. The revitalization of the waterfront has been a prevalent trend in cities around the world. On the other hand, architecture also had to respond to the threat of floods. The theme of Building with Water is the use of water in architecture. It presents buildings that explicitly refer to water in their design and form. It establishes a typology of building by the water: residential structures, recreation facilities, industry and infrastructure, buildings for culture and art. The various design parameters are explored in four essays. Subsequently, twenty-two international projects are presented, organized according t...
The measurement practice section illustrates the application of objective measurement methods to personality psychology, a sociological study of school environment, personnel management, pain research, motor performance, and curriculum development. It emphasizes practice over theory, showing how measurement practice contributes valuable perspectives on substantive theory. The measurement theory section describes the development of new measurement models that extend objective measurement into learning contexts, rank-ordered data, and multidimensional profiles composed of subtests. These are complemented by a study of the use of objective measurement to examine the construct validity of items, and an exploration of the impact of text anxiety and item order on measurements. The final section examines recent developments in mathematical programming techniques applied to test assembly, parameter estimation and generalizability theory.
The miniaturization and networking of computer processors as well as the digitalization and wireless transmission of data are opening up new possibilities for domestic environments. But what consequences will this have on residential architecture? Emerging architectural firms were invited to develop visionary answers to this question. Their extraordinary architectural visions are presented in detail for the first time in this publication. The essays are supplemented by a section providing comprehensive, graphically attractive data on demographic and technical developments that will shape our living environments in the near future.
The first edition of Comprehensive Medicinal Chemistry was published in 1990 and was very well received. Comprehensive Medicinal Chemistry II is much more than a simple updating of the contents of the first edition. Completely revised and expanded, this new edition has been refocused to reflect the significant developments and changes over the past decade in genomics, proteomics, bioinformatics, combinatorial chemistry, high-throughput screening and pharmacology, and more. The content comprises the most up-to-date, authoritative and comprehensive reference text on contemporary medicinal chemistry and drug research, covering major therapeutic classes and targets, research strategy and organis...
Silicon photonics technology, which has the DNA of silicon electronics technology, promises to provide a compact photonic integration platform with high integration density, mass-producibility, and excellent cost performance. This technology has been used to develop and to integrate various photonic functions on silicon substrate. Moreover, photonics-electronics convergence based on silicon substrate is now being pursued. Thanks to these features, silicon photonics will have the potential to be a superior technology used in the construction of energy-efficient cost-effective apparatuses for various applications, such as communications, information processing, and sensing. Considering the mat...
