How does a marketplace start up initiate the demand and supply side to achieve network effects

The evolution of consumption has evolved over the time, and so have consumer habits. Over the last two decades, the volume and variety of online markets has been staggering, and it is now a must-have for almost any type of company providing services or products. These marketplaces are changing people's lives, pushing the boundaries of traditional businesses, and reshaping how start ups raise funds to develop new projects within their organizations. Online marketplaces must then be carefully designed in order to fully realize their potential. However, every new business entering a market faces a significant challenge in determining how to generate demand and supply on a platform in order to achieve long-term stability and operational success

Generating Knowledge in Popular Education: From Participatory Research to the Systematization of Experiences

"The article presents a revision of how popular education has integrated into its practices and reflections on participatory research. After a presentation of popular education as an educational movement and pedagogical current, the article develops a historical reconstruction of the relationship between these two, while offering a critique of the legacy and challenges of this kind of double education: research with an emancipatory perspective. The article ends focusing on the systematization of experience as an emergent research mode in the field of popular education. Although there are different approaches to systematization, all of them try to recover and interpret the meanings that manifest themselves in social practices, with the purpose of strengthening them."

Summability in a monomial for some classes of singularly perturbed partial differential equations

The aim of this paper is to continue the study of asymptotic expansions and summability in a monomial in any number of variables, as introduced in [3, 15]. In particular, we characterize these expansions in terms of bounded derivatives and we develop Tauberian theorems for the summability processes involved. Furthermore,we develop and apply the Borel-Laplace analysis in this framework to prove the monomial summability of solutions of a specific class of singularly perturbed PDEs

On the Use of Gallic Acid as a Potential Natural Antioxidant and Ultraviolet Light Stabilizer in Cast-Extruded Bio-Based High-Density Polyethylene Films

This study originally explores the use of gallic acid (GA) as a natural additive in bio-based high-density polyethylene (bio-HDPE) formulations. Thus, bio-HDPE was first melt-compounded with two different loadings of GA, namely 0.3 and 0.8 parts per hundred resin (phr) of biopolymer, by twin-screw extrusion and thereafter shaped into films using a cast-roll machine. The resultant bio-HDPE films containing GA were characterized in terms of their mechanical, morphological, and thermal performance as well as ultraviolet (UV) light stability to evaluate their potential application in food packaging. The incorporation of 0.3 and 0.8 phr of GA reduced the mechanical ductility and crystallinity of bio-HDPE, but it positively contributed to delaying the onset oxidation temperature (OOT) by 36.5 °C and nearly 44 °C, respectively. Moreover, the oxidation induction time (OIT) of bio-HDPE, measured at 210 °C, was delayed for up to approximately 56 and 240 min, respectively. Furthermore, the UV light stability of the bio-HDPE films was remarkably improved, remaining stable for an exposure time of 10 h even at the lowest GA content. The addition of the natural antioxidant slightly induced a yellow color in the bio-HDPE films and it also reduced their transparency, although a high contact transparency level was maintained. This property can be desirable in some packaging materials for light protection, especially UV radiation, which causes lipid oxidation in food products. Therefore, GA can successfully improve the thermal resistance and UV light stability of green polyolefins and will potentially promote the use of natural additives for sustainable food packaging applications

COMPLICACIONES POSOPERATORIAS EN PACIENTES DIABETICOS SOMETIDOS A APENDICECTOMIA Y MANEJADOS CON INSULINA EN EL HOSPITAL GENERAL DE ATIZAPÁN DURANTE EL 01-01-11 AL 01-01-12

la diabetes mellitus representa una pandemia en expansión y se asocia con eventos adversos o complicaciones en varias enfermedades, la apendicitis aguda es la condición quirúrgica más común en el abdomen agudo no traumático. El mal control metabólico aumenta significativamente la tasa de infección de la herida quirúrgica. No obstante, el riesgo de desarrollar perforaciones o complicaciones en los pacientes diabé̩ticos con apendicitis aguda, no ha sido completamente evaluado

Práticas educativas nos movimentos sociais da América Latina

  This paper analyzes four educational proposals originated by social movements and popular processes in Latin America. The systematization of each of these proposals operates as a cross-reading of the most relevant senses and practices related to some aspects of their educational action, such as their consistency and political identity, their educational subjects, their pedagogical influences, their formative purposes, their curricular content, their working methodology, their production of knowledge and sustentability. Finally, a reflection is made about the tensions and challenges of the educational practices of social movements.  El artículo presenta un análisis de cuatro propuestas educativas gestadas por movimientos sociales y procesos populares en América Latina. Tomando como referente la sistematización de cada una de estas, se hace una lectura transversal de los sentidos y prácticas más significativos con respecto a algunas dimensiones de su acción educativa, tales como su organicidad e identidad política, sus sujetos educativos, sus influencias pedagógicas, finalidades formativas, contenidos curriculares, metodologías de trabajo, producción de conocimiento y sostenibilidad. Finalmente, se hace un balance reflexivo sobre las tensiones y los desafíos de las prácticas educativas en los movimientos sociales. O artigo apresenta uma análise de quatro propostas educativas gestadas pelos movimentos sociais e processos populares na América Latina.
