    Los páramos son ecosistemas dependientes del fuego. Conocer la historia reciente del fuego permite establecer un régimen ecológicamente adecuado que pueda incluirse en los planes de manejo de los páramos. Aún no se han presentado métodos que permitan estimar el tiempo después de la quema en los páramos que no están dominados por rosetas gigantes. El presente estudio se llevó a cabo en los páramos del Norte del Ecuador y evaluó el potencial de la paja como un indicador de la historia reciente del fuego. Se relacionaron características de los penachos de paja, la altura de los penachos y la cantidad de radiación que llega bajo la vegetación con el tiempo transcurrido después del fuego. A medida que transcurre el tiempo después del fuego, la cobertura basal y el número de penachos de paja disminuyen, pero el tamaño promedio de los penachos puede aumentar por la unificación de penachos pequeños. La altura de los penachos se incrementa con el paso de los años, mientras que la cantidad de radiación que llega bajo la vegetación disminuye. Se determinó que existe correlación entre las variables analizadas pero no existe precisión en la estimación de la edad del fuego. No hay un patrón de cambio claro a través del tiempo después del fuego. La paja no se presenta como un posible indicador de la historia reciente del fuego, ya que solo permite determinar si la edad del fuego es mayor o menor a cinco año

    The research is conducted in the fast food restaurant FRISBY SA City Pereira during the year 2015 to meet the dynamics of endomarketing and brand building. It is intended for employees of restaurants FRISBY SA de Pereira qualitatively. The endomarketing has been studied for over 25 years; Berry is one of the major references and a pioneer of endomarketing; So in 1981 he was the first to call internal clients to employees. This approach arose from the need to improve people management and customer service. Empirical treatment stimulated different interpretations and conceptualizations on the subject; as a result different applications emerged in the form of development methodologies with some points in common as employee satisfaction and customer. The endomarketing, is a set of strategies that have begun to implement a large number of companies around the world. These strategies are intended to "sell" the company to the employees that form and make sense of belonging. Human resources are one of the largest bases for an organization and gaining a competitive advantage applied to one of the internal marketing models such as the model of Berry. In this dynamic, the importance of analyzing the management of resources is generated. Thus; Pereira, in fast food restaurant, FRISBY SA, evolution, development and marketing of the internal dynamics is analyzed.La investigación es realizada en el restaurante de comidas rápidas FRISBY S.A de la ciudad de Pereira durante el año 2015, para conocer sus dinámicas de endomarketing y la construcción de marca.

El endomarketing, es un conjunto de estrategias que se han empezado a implementar en un gran número de empresas alrededor del mundo. Estas estrategias están orientadas a “vender” la empresa a los propios empleados que la conforman y tengan sentido de pertenencia. Los recursos humanos son una de las mayores bases para una organización y la obtención de una ventaja competitiva aplicada en uno de los modelos de marketing interno como lo es el modelo de Berry. De esta dinámica, se genera la importancia del análisis de la gestión de recursos. Por ello; en el restaurante de comidas rápidas pereirano, FRISBY S.A, se analiza la evolución, desarrollo y dinámicas del marketing interno.&nbsp

    A comparative analisys of i*-based agent-oriented modeling languages

    Get PDF
    Agent-oriented models are frequently used in disciplines such as requirements engineering and organizational process modelling. i* is currently one of the most widespread notations used for this purpose. Due to its strategic nature, instead of a single definition, there exist several versions and variants, often not totally defined and even contradictory. In this paper we present a comparative study of the three most widespread i* variants: Eric Yu’s seminal proposal, the Goal-oriented Requirement Language (GRL) and the language used in the TROPOS method. Next, we propose a generic conceptual model to be used as reference framework of these three variants and we show its use for generating specific models for the three mentioned variants, as well as for other existing proposals.Peer ReviewedPostprint (author’s final draft

    Análisis comparativo de lenguajes de modelado orientados a objetivos basados en i*

    Los modelos orientados a objetivos son usados frecuentemente en disciplinas tales como la ingeniería de requisitos o el modelado de procesos en organizaciones. i* es una de las notaciones más empleadas para construir este tipo de modelos. Desafortunadamente, no existe una definición única de i* sino diferentes versiones y variantes que, con frecuencia, no están totalmente definidas dificultando su comprensión y utilización. En este artículo, se presenta un estudio comparativo de las tres variantes más utilizadas de i*: la propuesta original de Eric Yu, el lenguaje GRL y el lenguaje utilizado en el método TROPOS. A continuación, se formula un modelo conceptual genérico como marco de referencia de las variantes estudiadas, se muestra cómo a partir de este modelo genérico pueden generarse los modelos específicos de cada una, y se evidencia que también puede usarse para clasificar algunas variantes puntuales que encontramos en la literatura.Peer ReviewedPostprint (author's final draft

    Hydrogeochemical characterization of an evaporite karst area affected by sinkholes (Ebro Valley, NE Spain)

    Get PDF
    The main processes controlling the hydrochemistry of an alluvium-covered evaporite karst area with high sinkhole risk (Ebro Valley, NE Spain) are examined by means of multivariate analyses (Principal Component Analysis and Hierarchical Cluster Analysis), ion correlations and geochemical speciation-solubility calculations. The hydrogeochemistry of the studied system seems to be governed by the interaction between the groundwater from the salt-bearing evaporitic karst aquifer and from the overlying Ebro River alluvial aquifer. The observed hydrochemical features in the alluvial-karst aquifer system are mainly determined by the relative contribution of gypsum/anhydrite and halite dissolution, showing a wide spectrum from relatively fresh recharge waters (mainly irrigation waters) to highly evolved groundwater from the evaporitic aquifer. The variability of these contributions is especially evident at sinkhole ponds which, in some cases, seem to be associated with discharge areas of the karst aquifer in the valley bottom alluvium. Calculated saturation indexes suggest that, in contrast to gypsum, the amounts of halite in the sampled portions of evaporitic aquifer are not large enough to attain equilibrium, which is consistent with the predominance of gypsum/anhydrite reported for these materials. Furthermore, the observed Na:Cl and Ca:SO4 correlations and stoichiometries suggest that other possible processes, such as glauberite dissolution or Na/Ca-exchange, generally play a minor role (compared to halite and gypsum dissolution) in this system. Another important process in the system is the dissolution of carbonate minerals (dolomite and, possibly, calcite) fostered by the input of CO2(g), which is probably produced by pedogenic processes. Dolomite dissolution seems to be particularly relevant in the evaporitic materials probably due to dedolomitisation triggered by gypsum/anhydrite dissolution

    Effectiveness and Safety of the Sequential Use of a Second and Third Anti-TNF Agent in Patients With Inflammatory Bowel Disease: Results From the Eneida Registry

    Get PDF
    Background: The effectiveness of the switch to another anti-tumor necrosis factor (anti-TNF) agent is not known. The aim of this study was to analyze the effectiveness and safety of treatment with a second and third anti-TNF drug after intolerance to or failure of a previous anti-TNF agent in inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) patients. Methods: We included patients diagnosed with IBD from the ENEIDA registry who received another anti-TNF after intolerance to or failure of a prior anti-TNF agent. Results: A total of 1122 patients were included. In the short term, remission was achieved in 55% of the patients with the second anti-TNF. The incidence of loss of response was 19% per patient-year with the second anti-TNF. Combination therapy (hazard ratio [HR], 2.4; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.8-3; P < 0.0001) and ulcerative colitis vs Crohn's disease (HR, 1.6; 95% CI, 1.1-2.1; P = 0.005) were associated with a higher probability of loss of response. Fifteen percent of the patients had adverse events, and 10% had to discontinue the second anti-TNF. Of the 71 patients who received a third anti-TNF, 55% achieved remission. The incidence of loss of response was 22% per patient-year with a third anti-TNF. Adverse events occurred in 7 patients (11%), but only 1 stopped the drug. Conclusions: Approximately half of the patients who received a second anti-TNF achieved remission; nevertheless, a significant proportion of them subsequently lost response. Combination therapy and type of IBD were associated with loss of response. Remission was achieved in almost 50% of patients who received a third anti-TNF; nevertheless, a significant proportion of them subsequently lost response
