The algebra of q-pseudodifferential symbols and the q-W_{KP}^n algebra

In this paper we continue with the program to explore the topography of the space of W-type algebras. In the present case, the starting point is the work of Khesin, Lyubashenko and Roger on the algebra of q-deformed pseudodifferential symbols and their associated integrable hierarchies. The analysis goes on by studying the associated hamiltonian structures for which compact expressions are found. The fundamental Poisson brackets yield q-deformations of W_{KP} and related W-type algebras which, in specific cases, coincide with the ones constructed by Frenkel and Reshetikhin. The construction underlies a continuous correspondence between the hamiltonian structures of the Toda lattice and the KP hierarchies.Comment: 28 pages. Section 5 revised. Misprints corrected.

Balanced Objective-Quantifiers Method (BOQM) For Software Intensive Organizations Strategies

Spanish university facilitates a method to link the strategic management with Software and Process improvement based on measurement. The method uses the process philosophy to build measurable information in Indicators templates (Based on ISO/IEC 15939) and a Balanced Scorecard (BSC) template, the process is followed by the participation of SIO’s roles such as the CEO, TI director, CPO, and others measurement roles such as measurement analyst, measurement librarian, and the measurement user

Electroweak Baryogenesis in the MSSM

We review the baryogenesis scenario in the MSSM at the perturbative level and, in particular, the impact of two-loop corrections on the strength of the phase transition and the amount of generated baryon asymmetry. We confirm the baryogenesis window, where m_H is less than 115GeV, for m_Q less than a few GeV, and the right-handed stop mass is constrained in the region between 100GeV and the top mass. This scenario will be tested at LEP and Tevatron colliders.Comment: Latex2.09, 12 pages, uses sprocl.sty, 10 figures; some references adde

Alumni from the Polytechnic of Leiria: path & challenges

In this communication we will analyse the development of the Alumni Network of Polytechnic of Leiria, a higher public education institution in Portugal. The Alumni Network of Polytechnic of Leiria was constituted in February of 2012 with the aim to recover alumni relations, facilitating interactions, promoting the sharing of experiences and reinforcing the Institution’s recognition/image, empowering the long life learning, the information and knowledge updates and the reinforcement of an oriented community for the scientific and technological production. The Institution has around 12,000 current students and we estimate that 40,000 have finished their courses, short cycle’s, undergraduates and master’s degrees. The network has more than 4,000 registered alumni. In LinkedIn there are 13,500 former students connected and in Facebook there are more than 7,000 alumni following the page. This network develops activities towards former students such as: walk gatherings; anniversary cards; alumni days; the publishing of conferences, seminars, program offers; direct invitation to be a speaker; testimony collection; and alumni passport. The alumni passport is the official document sent to all alumni when they register that grants special conditions like access to canteens/bars and libraries; participation with special discount in events, conferences, courses and discounts in enterprises with an agreement with Polytechnic of Leiria. The testimony collection (flyers, videos) is also a great moment in the network since all the community can see the experiences before and after the alumni attended their school. The former students report their memories as resident students and the importance of the training received, presenting suggestions for the network life. Actually most of the activities are developed with the involvement and collaboration of current students who implement marketing strategies, creativity and new work tools to engage alumni. We regularly publish the initiatives/enterprises of our alumni and the prizes obtained. This is very courageous for them and we let all of the community know what they are doing, enabling them to be proud. This is also a way to inspire the current and future students. This is also a way to give visibility to the Institution which sees its reputation spread. Alumni of this initiative are also promotors of employment and are willing to recruit students from the same Institution. The mentors/ambassadors living in the country or even abroad are well engage to help other students. We are proud with the network development but conscious that a long way is waiting ahead, regarding the bigger involvement needed from the internal academic community if we want to reach volunteering and fundraise, another dimension of alumni relations and to proceed the alumni potential.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
