Resumen—El objetivo de este trabajo se centra en investigar los efectos que conlleva realizar experimentos en ingenierı́a de software (IS) empleando como sujetos experimentales a estudiantes de pregrado cursando su primer año de estudios de la carrera en ingenierı́a de software. De manera particular en este trabajo se investiga la efectividad medida en porcentaje de defectos observados y observab...

In this paper we explore the theory and logic behind the development of the second generation of the California urban futures model, a site-specific urban growth and simulation model. The second-generation model remedies three of the major shortcomings of the first generation. It substitutes a statistical model of urban land-use change, calibrated against historical experience, for an uncalibra...

In this paper we study parametric trace finite element (TraceFEM) and surface (SFEM) discretizations of a Stokes problem. These methods are applied both to the problem in velocity-pressure formulation stream function formulation. A class higher order is presented unified framework. Numerical efficiency aspects two formulations discussed systematic comparison TraceFEM SFEM given. benchmark intro...

Identification of fish fillets usually requires the application of a molecular tool because most of the morphological traits used in species identification are removed during the filleting process. Early molecular identification methods relied on protein electrophoresis that became recognized as an official method for fish fillet identification (AOAC, 1990; Tenge et al., 1993; Yearsley et al., ...

The previously monotypic genus Pseudorhopalia Wilcox & Papavero, 1971 is here revised, with description of a new species, Pseudorhopalia manauara, sp. n. The type-species, P. mirandai (d'Andretta & Carrera, 1951), is only found in northeastern Brazil, in the semiarid Caatinga biome. On the other hand, the new species is found in the humid Brazilian Amazonia, within dense ombrophilous forest and...
