Análisis de la distribución de las interacciones en la web

El auge de Internet, el uso masivo de dispositivos móviles y los cambios en hábitos de consumo de los servicios en la web, han dado lugar a variaciones en los patrones de uso de los sistemas de información respecto de los encontrados en la bibliografía. Uno de los patrones frecuentemente citados corresponde a una función de distribución llamada Zipf (Zipf, 1949). Zipf se ha aplicado a diferentes ámbitos y de forma especial en la lingüística. En el contexto dela web, modela cómo las páginas y los recursos de un sitio son solicitados por los usuarios. Dicha distribución establece que si ordenamos los recursos por su frecuencia de acceso, la frecuencia de un recurso es proporcional a suposición en dicha ordenación.Esta memoria de tesis gira alrededor de este modelo Zipf y motiva cuestiones al respecto. En particular, si sigue apareciendo en el dominio de la web,cuáles son las consecuencias de que exista y cuestionar acerca de los factores que afectan o condicionan dicho comportamiento. Por ello se ha dividido entres partes: el estudio de la Zipf en el servidor, el estudio de la Zipf en el cliente y la relación entre el comportamiento entre cliente y servidor..

Sistema de Información del Paisaje Andaluz

Se entiende la creación del Sistema de Información del Paisaje Andaluz (SIPA) como una herramienta básica para el conocimiento, la protección, gestión y ordenación de los paisajes andaluces. El sistema responde a la necesidad de integrar los numerosos y complejos elementos que han de considerarse para la identificación, caracterización, cualificación y seguimiento del paisaje en un modelo objetivo, replicable, homogéneo y sistemático. El sistema se integra en la REDIAM: Red de Información Ambiental de Andalucía, de la Consejería de Medio Ambiente de la Junta de Andalucía

Phase III Trial of Adjuvant Capecitabine After Standard Neo-/Adjuvant Chemotherapy in Patients With Early Triple-Negative Breast Cancer (GEICAM/2003-11_CIBOMA/2004-01)

The GEICAM/2003-11_CIBOMA/2004-01 trial explored extended adjuvant capecitabine after completion of standard chemotherapy in patients with early TNBC. Eligible patients were those with operable, node-positive-or node negative with tumor 1 cm or greater-TNBC, with prior anthracycline- and/or taxane-containing chemotherapy. After central confirmation of TNBC status by immunohistochemistry, patients were randomly assigned to either capecitabine or observation. Stratification factors included institution, prior taxane-based therapy, involved axillary lymph nodes, and centrally determined phenotype (basal v nonbasal, according to cytokeratins 5/6 and/or epidermal growth factor receptor positivity by immunohistochemistry). The primary objective was to compare disease-free survival (DFS) between both arms. Eight hundred seventy-six patients were randomly assigned to capecitabine (n = 448) or observation (n = 428). Median age was 49 years, 55.9% were lymph node negative, 73.9% had a basal phenotype, and 67.5% received previous anthracyclines plus taxanes. Median length of follow-up was 7.3 years. DFS was not significantly prolonged with capecitabine versus observation [hazard ratio (HR), 0.82; 95% CI, 0.63 to 1.06; P =.136]. In a preplanned subgroup analysis, nonbasal patients seemed to derive benefit from the addition of capecitabine with a DFS HR of 0.53 versus 0.94 in those with basal phenotype (interaction test P =.0694) and an HR for overall survival of 0.42 versus 1.23 in basal phenotype (interaction test P =.0052). Tolerance of capecitabine was as expected, with 75.2% of patients completing the planned 8 cycles. This study failed to show a statistically significant increase in DFS by adding extended capecitabine to standard chemotherapy in patients with early TNBC. In a preplanned subset analysis, patients with nonbasal phenotype seemed to obtain benefit with capecitabine, although this will require additional validation
