    Accessibility Variability Model: The UTPL MOOC Case Study

    Get PDF
    Several approaches to define Variability Models (VM) of non-functional requirements or quality attributes have been proposed. However, these approaches have focused on specific quality attributes rather than more general non-functional aspects established by standards such as ISO/IEC 25010 for software evaluation and quality. Thus, developing specific software products by selecting features and at the same time measuring the level of compliance with a standard/ guideline is a challenge. In this work, we present the definition of an accessibility VM based on the web content accessibility guides (WCAG) 2.1 W3C recommendation, to obtain a quantitative measure to improve or construct specific SPL products that require to be accessibility-aware. This paper is specially focused on illustrating the experience of measuring the accessibility in a software product line (SPL) in order to check if it is viable measuring products and recommending improvements in terms of features before addressing the construction of accessibility-aware products. The adoption of the VM accessibility has been putted into practice through a pilot case study, the MOOC (Massive Open Online Course) initiative of the Universidad T茅cnica Particular de Loja. The conduction of this pilot case study has allowed us to illustrate how it is possible to model and measure the accessibility in SPL using accessibility VM, as well as to recommend accessibility configuration improvements for the construction of new or updated MOOC platforms.Ministerio de Econom铆a, Industria y Competitividad TIN2016- 79726-C2-1-RMinisterio de Ciencia, Innovaci贸n y Universidades RTI2018-101204-B-C22Agencia Estatal de Investigaci贸n TIN2017-90644-RED

    The search for an unbiased company valuation method to reduce uncertainty, whether or not it is automatic, has been a relevant topic in social sciences and business development for decades. Many methods have been described in the literature, but consensus has not been reached. In the companion paper we aimed to review the assessment capabilities of traditional company valuation model, based on company鈥檚 intrinsic value using the Discounted Cash Flow (DCF). In this paper, we capitalized on the potential of exogenous information combined with Machine Learning (ML) techniques. To do so, we performed an extensive analysis to evaluate the predictive capabilities with up to 18 different ML techniques. Endogenous variables (features) related to value creation (DCF) were proved to be crucial elements for the models, while the incorporation of exogenous, industry/country specific ones, incrementally improves the ML performance. Bagging Trees, Supported Vector Machine Regression, Gaussian Process Regression methods consistently provided the best results. We concluded that an unbiased model can be created based on endogenous and exogenous information to build a reference framework, to price and benchmark Enterprise Value for valuation and credit risk assessment

    El lavado de dinero y activos constituye un delito que ha manifestado un crecimiento significativo en el transcurso de los a帽os, a tal grado que actualmente cualquier entidad puede ser sujeta a este tipo de actividades de origen il铆cito, por lo cual es necesario el cumplimiento efectivo de la ley que sanciona dicho delito. En la situaci贸n econ贸mica actual de El Salvador, toda entidad se encuentran ante la necesidad de obtenci贸n de liquidez, inversi贸n y financiamiento para la realizaci贸n de su actividades y muchas de las veces no se efect煤a un estudio del cliente, proveedor, acreedor e inversionistas de los cuales se desconoce el origen de los recursos; ante este suceso la industria de papel y cart贸n no se encuentra exenta de ser un medio para el cometimiento de contrabando de materias primas, transferencias fraccionadas de dinero y cualquier acci贸n que lleve consigo una intenci贸n de legitimar dinero o bienes obtenidos de manera il铆cita. Debido a lo anterior las entidades deben reportar a la Unidad de Investigaci贸n Financiera las transacciones en efectivo y otros medios realizadas con sus usuarios, informar transacciones consideradas de car谩cter sospechoso, establecer pol铆ticas de debida diligencia para efectos de identificaci贸n de clientes, proveedores y empleados, implementar programas de capacitaci贸n al personal en materia de prevenci贸n de lavado de dinero y activos, as铆 como tambi茅n establecer mecanismos de auditor铆a interna y una oficial铆a de cumplimiento que eval煤e y verifique la La implementaci贸n, ejecuci贸n y verificaci贸n de las obligaciones establecidas en la presente ley, requiere del apoyo del profesional de contadur铆a p煤blica, quien deber谩 dise帽ar y ejecutar actividades que permitan verificar y evaluar el cumplimiento en lo referente a los elementos del programa de prevenci贸n de lavado de dinero y activos. La investigaci贸n se realiz贸 por medio del m茅todo hipot茅tico deductivo, utilizando las t茅cnicas de la encuesta y entrevista, as铆 como los instrumentos del cuestionario y el guion de entrevista, los cuales se dirigieron a profesionales que ejercen como oficial de cumplimiento o persona designada en industrias de papel y cart贸n ubicadas en la zona metropolitana de San Salvador; permitiendo conocer y analizar la problem谩tica a partir de la informaci贸n obtenida. El resultado muestra el incumplimiento de lo establecido en la ley por parte de las entidades sujetas a estudio, lo tanto genera una deficiencia en cuanto a pol铆ticas, procedimientos y controles internos enfocados en la prevenci贸n de lavado de dinero y activos. Finalmente, se recomienda la implementaci贸n y aplicaci贸n de un programa de prevenci贸n de lavado de dinero y activos con su respectivo manual, en el cual se examinen pol铆ticas, procedimientos y control interno, as铆 como la capacitaci贸n del personal, oficial铆a de cumplimiento y mecanismos de auditor铆a interna que verifiquen los procedimientos que van relacionados a dicha tem谩tica, con el objeto de dar cumplimiento a lo establecido en dicha ley. ejecuci贸n de los requerimientos legales

    Ajuts: Funding support is provided by Gus R. Douglass Institute (Evans Allen Project to Nimmakayala) and USDA-NIFA (2010-02247 and 2012-02511).Melon (Cucumis melo L.) is a phenotypically diverse eudicot diploid (2n = 2x = 24) has climacteric and non-climacteric morphotypes and show wide variation for fruit firmness, an important trait for transportation and shelf life. We generated 13,789 SNP markers using genotyping-by-sequencing (GBS) and anchored them to chromosomes to understand genome-wide fixation indices (Fst) between various melon morphotypes and genomewide linkage disequilibrium (LD) decay. The FST between accessions of cantalupensis and inodorus was 0.23. The FST between cantalupensis and various agrestis accessions was in a range of 0.19-0.53 and between inodorus and agrestis accessions was in a range of 0.21-0.59 indicating sporadic to wide ranging introgression. The EM (Expectation Maximization) algorithm was used for estimation of 1436 haplotypes. Average genome-wide LD decay for the melon genome was noted to be 9.27 Kb. In the current research, we focused on the genome-wide divergence underlying diverse melon horticultural groups. A high-resolution genetic map with 7153 loci was constructed. Genome-wide segregation distortion and recombination rate across various chromosomes were characterized. Melon has climacteric and non-climacteric morphotypes and wide variation for fruit firmness, a very important trait for transportation and shelf life. Various levels of QTLs were identified with high to moderate stringency and linked to fruit firmness using both genome-wide association study (GWAS) and biparental mapping. Gene annotation revealed some of the SNPs are located in 尾-D-xylosidase, glyoxysomal malate synthase, chloroplastic anthranilate phosphoribosyltransferase, and histidine kinase, the genes that were previously characterized for fruit ripening and softening in other crops
