Borrowing and Working of Low-Income Students: The Impact of a Summer Transition Program
This study focuses on how low-income students determine employment and student loan borrowing options before they begin college, as part of the final stages of their college choice process. More specifically, this study asks, “during a six-week summer transition program, what choices are made by low-income students with employment or borrowing student loans at a public, four-year urban university?” Results of the study demonstrate low-income students are less likely to expect support from parents, more likely to commit themselves to employment and minimal borrowing and yet, view financial challenges as less difficult
Construcción de la función económica de demanda para la empresa de Telefonía Celular Claro en la ciudad de Pereira
Las tendencias de desarrollo en las telecomunicaciones demandan en la actualidad para el país y el mundo entero toda una serie de avances y nuevos diseños que se ajusten con mucha flexibilidad e interactividad al progreso y desarrollo de las nuevas plataformas que buscan canalizar la transmisión de voz y datos de todos sus clientes a través de portafolios muy complejos donde la constante competitiva por capturar más usuarios consiste la mejor estrategia de desarrollo. La comunicación en estas condiciones virtuales se debe a tenaces avances que se han realizado a través de medios electromagnéticos y electrónicos; En Colombia se busca que todas las personas puedan acceder a este proceso de integración comunicacional, porque definitivamente cree, que solo a través de ello el desarrollo tanto local como regional será plenamente sostenible y si se hace a través de optimizar los sistemas de comunicación, mayores y mejores serán los resultados. Por esto, las comunicaciones en Colombia deberán estar reguladas y administradas por entes que garantice que los desarrollos sean sostenibles, equitativos y altamente incluyentes, al fin y al cabo, el espectro electromagnético sobre el cual se desarrolla pertenece exclusivamente al Estado. De acuerdo con lo anterior, se concluye que las asignaciones en calidad de concesión oficial como son las autopistas virtuales por donde viaja la comunicación, son la única posibilidad tecnológica que permitirá alcanzar el desarrollo en la forma prevista para todos los diferentes sectores socioeconómicos
Intersectin 2, a new multimodular protein involved in clathrin-mediated endocytosis11The sequence data reported in this paper have been submitted to GenBank and have been assigned the accession numbers AF182198 and AF182199.
AbstractIntersectin 1 (ITSN1) is a binding partner of dynamin that has been shown to participate in clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Here we report the characterization of a new human gene, ITSN2, highly similar to ITSN1. Alternative splicing of ITSN2 generates a short isoform with two EH domains, a coiled-coil region and five SH3 domains, and a longer isoform containing extra carboxy domains (DH, PH and C2 domains), suggesting that it could act as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for Rho-like GTPases. ITSN2 expression analysis indicates that it is widely expressed in human tissues. Intersectin 2 isoforms show a subcellular distribution similar to other components of the endocytic machinery and co-localize with Eps15. Moreover, their overexpression, as well as the corresponding ITSN1 protein forms, inhibits transferrin internalization
Ultrasound Indoor Positioning System Based on a Low-Power Wireless Sensor Network Providing Sub-Centimeter Accuracy
This paper describes the TELIAMADE system, a new indoor positioning system
based on time-of-flight (TOF) of ultrasonic signal to estimate the distance between a
receiver node and a transmitter node. TELIAMADE system consists of a set of wireless
nodes equipped with a radio module for communication and a module for the transmission
and reception of ultrasound. The access to the ultrasonic channel is managed by applying
a synchronization algorithm based on a time-division multiplexing (TDMA) scheme.
The ultrasonic signal is transmitted using a carrier frequency of 40 kHz and the TOF
measurement is estimated by applying a quadrature detector to the signal obtained at the
A/D converter output. Low sampling frequencies of 17.78 kHz or even 12.31 kHz are
possible using quadrature sampling in order to optimize memory requirements and to reduce
the computational cost in signal processing. The distance is calculated from the TOF taking
into account the speed of sound. An excellent accuracy in the estimation of the TOF is
achieved using parabolic interpolation to detect of maximum of the signal envelope at the
matched filter output. The signal phase information is also used for enhancing the TOF
measurement accuracy. Experimental results show a root mean square error (rmse) less
than 2 mm and a standard deviation less than 0.3 mm for pseudorange measurements in the
range of distances between 2 and 6 m. The system location accuracy is also evaluated by
applying multilateration. A sub-centimeter location accuracy is achieved with an average
rmse of 9.6 mm.Junta de Andalucía

Population stability: regulating size in the presence of an adversary
We introduce a new coordination problem in distributed computing that we call
the population stability problem. A system of agents each with limited memory
and communication, as well as the ability to replicate and self-destruct, is
subjected to attacks by a worst-case adversary that can at a bounded rate (1)
delete agents chosen arbitrarily and (2) insert additional agents with
arbitrary initial state into the system. The goal is perpetually to maintain a
population whose size is within a constant factor of the target size . The
problem is inspired by the ability of complex biological systems composed of a
multitude of memory-limited individual cells to maintain a stable population
size in an adverse environment. Such biological mechanisms allow organisms to
heal after trauma or to recover from excessive cell proliferation caused by
inflammation, disease, or normal development.
We present a population stability protocol in a communication model that is a
synchronous variant of the population model of Angluin et al. In each round,
pairs of agents selected at random meet and exchange messages, where at least a
constant fraction of agents is matched in each round. Our protocol uses
three-bit messages and states per agent. We emphasize that
our protocol can handle an adversary that can both insert and delete agents, a
setting in which existing approximate counting techniques do not seem to apply.
The protocol relies on a novel coloring strategy in which the population size
is encoded in the variance of the distribution of colors. Individual agents can
locally obtain a weak estimate of the population size by sampling from the
distribution, and make individual decisions that robustly maintain a stable
global population size
