Propuesta de Diseño de Rutas Turístico-Culturales mediante el Empleo de SIG: Un Caso Aplicado

Cultural tourism routes and itineraries are tourism promotion tools that have under-gone a remarkable development in recent years, thanks to their ability to enhance the value of cultural heritage. In this sense, national and international organizations as well as private initiatives have designed tourist routes that cover a wide range of topics, while cultural itineraries have been recognized at the institutional level by organizations such as ICOMOS or the Council of Europe. The main objective of this article is to offer a proposal for the design of cultural tourist routes through the use of a geographic information system. To achieve this goal, we start from a brief theoretical framework in which the tourist use of geographic information systems and the conceptualization of tourist routes and their differences with itineraries are analyzed. Subsequently, the methodology used consists of two distinct phases. Initially, a quantitative study is carried out in which data on the late medieval heritage are collected and subsequently, through the use of a GIS, an index of tourist potentiality is carried out and the creation of a tourist route in the province of Cadiz (Spain). In this way the results obtained justify the route designed and the choice of municipalities, based on their greater availability of tourism resources (accessibility, hospitality etc.) and cultural (historical assets

Optimal domain for the Hardy operator

We study the optimal domain for the Hardy operator considered with values in a rearrangement invariant space. In particular, this domain can be represented as the space of integrable functions with respect to a vector measure defined on a δ-ring. A precise description is given for the case of the minimal Lorentz spaces.Ministerio de Ciencia y Tecnología (MCYT). Españ

Una presidencia de acción conjunta

Han pasado casi tres meses de la presidencia española de la Unión Europea. Un momento histórico para España. A pesar de las dificultades, mantenemos intacta la ilusión por cumplir con un programa que estamos transformando en acciones concretas, y la satisfacción por ver traducidas esas acciones en mejoras palpables para el conjunto de la Unión así como para nuestros socios y vecinos. Es precisamente esa voluntad de cooperación y esfuerzo común, el germen que está haciendo posible el desarrollo de las más ambiciosas y prioritarias líneas de acción de nuestra presidencia. Desde la renovada estructura institucional, hasta la implementación de las medidas de recuperación económica y creación de empleo de calidad enmarcadas en la Estrategia UE 2020, pasando por el Servicio Europeo de Acción Exterior, España está haciendo todo lo posible para sentar las bases de la nueva Europa del siglo XXI

¿La música distrae? Neuromúsica y educación

“Las Educación Artística distrae de las demás asignaturas”. Estas palabras lapidarias del Ministro de Educación, Cultura y Deporte, José Ignacio Wert, en el 2013 incendiaron las redes sociales y fueron el centro de más de una tertulia en la que se acumulaban los argumentos a favor y en contra de dichas declaraciones. Entre todas las respuestasofrecidas hubo algunas más fundamentadas que otras y algunas excelentes para rebatir, y casi dejar en evidencia, a un ministro que, una vez leído este libro, podemos afirmar que estaba desinformado

Relative production rates of 6^{6}He, 9^{9}Be, 12^{12}C in astrophysical environments

We assume an environment of neutrons and $\alpha$-particles of given density and temperature where nuclear syntheses into $^{6}$He, $^{9}$Be and $^{12}$C are possible. We investigate the resulting relative abundance as a function of density and temperature. When the relative abundance of $\alpha$-particles $Y_{\alpha}$ is between 0.2 and 0.9, or larger than 0.9, the largest production is $^{9}$Be or $^{12}$C, respectively. When $Y_{\alpha}<0.2$ $^{6}$He is mostly frequently produced for temperatures above about 2 GK whereas the $^{9}$Be production dominates at smaller temperatures.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figure

España y Turquia: dos países y un destino

Si tuviéramos que definir el estado de las relaciones entre España y Turquía, éstas podrían calificarse de muy buenas. Y es que los amigos turcos son un socio y vecino de primer orden. Compartimos una visión común en numerosas áreas de trabajo, ya sea en el terreno político, económico, comercial o de la seguridad colectiva. Turquía es un gran país en todos los sentidos

The Effect of Pok\'emon Go on The Pulse of the City: A Natural Experiment

Pok\'emon Go, a location-based game that uses augmented reality techniques, received unprecedented media coverage due to claims that it allowed for greater access to public spaces, increasing the number of people out on the streets, and generally improving health, social, and security indices. However, the true impact of Pok\'emon Go on people's mobility patterns in a city is still largely unknown. In this paper, we perform a natural experiment using data from mobile phone networks to evaluate the effect of Pok\'emon Go on the pulse of a big city: Santiago, capital of Chile. We found significant effects of the game on the floating population of Santiago compared to movement prior to the game's release in August 2016: in the following week, up to 13.8\% more people spent time outside at certain times of the day, even if they do not seem to go out of their usual way. These effects were found by performing regressions using count models over the states of the cellphone network during each day under study. The models used controlled for land use, daily patterns, and points of interest in the city. Our results indicate that, on business days, there are more people on the street at commuting times, meaning that people did not change their daily routines but slightly adapted them to play the game. Conversely, on Saturday and Sunday night, people indeed went out to play, but favored places close to where they live. Even if the statistical effects of the game do not reflect the massive change in mobility behavior portrayed by the media, at least in terms of expanse, they do show how "the street" may become a new place of leisure. This change should have an impact on long-term infrastructure investment by city officials, and on the drafting of public policies aimed at stimulating pedestrian traffic.Comment: 23 pages, 7 figures.
