Dance, Music and Dramaturgy: collaboration plan and dramaturgical apparatus
Dance, Music and Dramaturgy: collaboration plan and dramaturgical apparatus
– The unfolding of the concept of dramaturgy and the problematics of contemporary choreography
are, today, a vast and diverse field of research, bearing numerous disclosures that lead to
their reciprocal implication. Apart from that, dance and music share significant complementary ties
allowing for the consideration of a common compositional inquiry. Reflecting on the compositional
processes of dance and music, this article cross-examines the collaboration between choreographers
and composers, integrating the incidence of dramaturgy in the strategies of choreographic and
musical composition
Amphibia, Anura, Hylidae Rafinesque, 1815 and Hylodidae Günther, 1858: distribution extension and new records for Santa Catarina, southern Brazil
In the present study we report new records of the anurans Hypsiboas curupi, Scinax littoralis, Dendropsophus elegans, and Crossodactylus schmidti for the state of Santa Catarina. These records expand the geographic distribution currently known for these species and contribute for the knowledge of the southern Brazilian anuran fauna
Multi-agent systems to implement industry 4.0 components
The fast-changing market conditions, the increased global competition and the rapid technological developments demand flexible, adaptable and reconfigurable manufacturing systems based on Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS). Aligned with CPS, the adoption of production system architectures is suitable to reduce complexity and achieve interoperability in the industrial applications. In this context, the Reference Architecture Model for Industry 4.0 (RAMI4.0) provides the guidelines to develop Industry 4.0 (I4.0) compliant solutions, considering the existing industrial standards. The so-called I4.0 components implement this model in practice, combining the physical asset with its digital representation, named Asset Administration Shell (AAS). This paper explores the use of Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) to implement the AAS functionalities, taking advantage of their inherits characteristics, e.g., autonomy, intelligence, decentralization and reconfigurability. In this context, the mapping between AAS functionalities and MAS characteristics is provided, as well as the challenges for this implementation. The applicability is illustrated by digitalizing an inspection cell comprising an UR3 robot and several console products by using MAS technology.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
Danse, musique et dramaturgie : plan de collaboration et dispositif dramaturgique
Os desdobramentos do conceito de dramaturgia e as problematizações da criação coreográfica contemporânea são hoje um vasto e diversificado campo de pesquisa, tecido por inúmeras linhas de fuga que orientam a sua recÃproca implicação. Além disso, a dança e a música partilham laços de complementaridade expressiva que propiciam a ponderação de uma questão composicional comum. Refletindo sobre os respectivos processos composicionais, este artigo interroga a colaboração entre coreógrafos e compositores musicais, integrando a incidência da dramaturgia nas estratégias de composição coreográfico-musical.The unfolding of the concept of dramaturgy and the problematics of contemporary choreography are, today, a vast and diverse field of research, bearing numerous disclosures that lead to their reciprocal implication.

Probing the Ionic Dielectric Constant Contribution in the Ferroelectric Phase of the Fabre-Salts
In strongly correlated organic materials it has been pointed out that
charge-ordering could also achieve electronic ferroelectricity at the same
critical temperature . A prototype of such phenomenon are the quasi-one
dimensional (TMTTF) Fabre-salts. However, the stabilization of a
long-range ferroelectric ground-state below requires the break of
inversion symmetry, which should be accompanied by a lattice deformation. In
this work we investigate the role of the monovalent counter-anion in such
mechanism. For this purpose, we measured the quasi-static dielectric constant
along the -axis direction, where layers formed by donors and anions
alternate. Our findings show that the ionic charge contribution is three orders
of magnitude lower than the intra-stack electronic response. The
dielectric constant () probes directly the charge response of
the monovalent anion , since the anion mobility in the structure should help
to stabilize the ferroelectric ground-state. Furthermore, our
measurements %conjugated with earlier investigations of the lattice
thermal expansion, show that the dielectric response is thermally broaden below
if the ferroelectric transition occurs in the temperature range where
the anion movement begin to freeze in their methyl groups cavity. In the
extreme case of the PF-H salt, where occurs at the freezing
point, a relaxor-type ferroelectricity is observed. Also, because of the slow
kinetics of the anion sub-lattice, global hysteresis effects and reduction of
the charge response upon successive cycling are observed. In this context, we
propose that anions control the order-disorder or relaxation character of the
ferroelectric transition of the Fabre-salts.Comment: 8 pages, 7 figures. To appear in Physical Review
Collective intelligence in self-organized industrial cyber-physical systems
Cyber-physical systems (CPS) play an important role in the implementation of new Industry 4.0 solutions, acting as the backbone infrastructure to host distributed intelligence capabilities and promote the collective intelligence that emerges from the interactions among individuals. This collective intelligence concept provides an alternative way to design complex systems with several benefits, such as modularity, flexibility, robustness, and reconfigurability to condition changes, but it also presents several challenges to be managed (e.g., non-linearity, self-organization, and myopia). With this in mind, this paper discusses the factors that characterize collective intelligence, particularly that associated with industrial CPS, analyzing the enabling concepts, technologies, and application sectors, and providing an illustrative example of its application in an automotive assembly line. The main contribution of the paper focuses on a comprehensive review and analysis of the main aspects, challenges, and research opportunities to be considered for implementing collective intelligence in industrial CPS. The identified challenges are clustered according to five different categories, namely decentralization, emergency, intelligent machines and products, infrastructures and methods, and human integration and ethics. Although the research indicates some potential benefits of using collective intelligence to achieve the desired levels of autonomy and dynamic adaptation of industrial CPS, such approaches are still in the early stages, with perspectives to increase in the coming years. Based on that, they need to be further developed considering some main aspects, for example, related to balancing the distribution of intelligence by the vertical and horizontal dimensions and controlling the nervousness in self-organized systems.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
