The Effect of the Buffer Size in QoS for Multimedia and bursty Traffic: When an Upgrade Becomes a Downgrade
This work presents an analysis of the buffer features of an access router, especially the size, the impact on delay and the packet loss rate. In particular, we study how these features can affect the Quality of Service (QoS) of multimedia applications when generating traffic bursts in local networks. First, we show how in a typical SME (Small and Medium Enterprise) network in which several multimedia flows (VoIP, videoconferencing and video surveillance) share access, the upgrade of the bandwidth of the internal network may cause the appearance of a significant amount of packet loss caused by buffer overflow.
Secondly, the study shows that the bursty nature of the traffic in some applications traffic (video surveillance) may impair their QoS and that of other services (VoIP and videoconferencing), especially when a certain number of bursts overlap. Various tests have been developed with the aim of characterizing the problems that may appear when network capacity is increased in these scenarios. In some cases, especially when applications generating bursty traffic are present, increasing the network speed may lead to a deterioration in the quality. It has been found that the cause of this quality degradation is buffer overflow, which depends on the bandwidth relationship between the access and the internal networks. Besides, it has been necessary to describe the packet loss distribution by means of a histogram since, although most of the communications present good QoS results, a few of them have worse outcomes. Finally, in order to complete the study we present the MOS results for VoIP calculated from the delay and packet loss rate
Variscan deformation of the Hesperian massif in the Lousã mountain range (central Portugal)
[Abstract] The occidental region of the Central-Iberian Zone of the Variscan Iberian massif, in the central part of Portugal (Lousã mountain range), has a Variscan tectonostructural organization as the one recognized in the occidental border of the massif, in the Porto-Coimbra-Tomar shear zone. In the Iberian massif we can observe neo-proterozoic metasediments of the “Complexo Xisto-Grauváquico”, and important metasedimentary outcrops of Late Palaeozoic (Ordovician, Silurian and lower Devonian) rocks. Both are affected by the first regional variscan deformation phase (FH1), and later refolded by the second variscan deformation phase (FH2). This second regional variscan phase has a penetrative effect in the massif and develops a dextral, north-south, strike-slip faulting, associated with transpressive kinematic deformation (like a Riedel model) similar to the Porto-Coimbra-Tomar shear zone. Some geological examples observed and studied in the Lousã region are showed and discussed
Social Media Use and Its Association with Mental Health and Internet Addiction among Portuguese Higher Education Students during COVID-19 Confinement
The use of social media was one of the most common way to keep in touch with friends and family during confinement. For higher education students, the fact that their universities were closed was a major change in their lives. The aim of this study is to relate the prevalence and type of social media with Internet addiction and mental health of university students in a district of Portugal during COVID-19 confinement. Mental health was studied by applying the reduced version of the Mental Health Inventory (MHI-5) and to measure the Internet use and dependence, the Internet Addiction Test (IAT) was used. The study (cross-sectional, descriptive, and correlational) used an online questionnaire, conducted on Google® Forms and the link was sent to 4450 students, in the months of April to June 2020, during the confinement. A total of 329 valid questionnaires were obtained. We can conclude that regarding mental health, students in the 18–24 age group, single or divorced and who are not in a relationship, and with worse academic results, show worse levels of mental health. It is noteworthy that the students with the same characteristics also have the highest levels of addiction to internet
A Relevância e as Competências das Estruturas de Gestão Intermédia: os coordenadores de departamento
Dada a concentração e profusão das responsabilidades do director escolar, verificámos
a tendência de relevar a importância das estruturas de gestão intermédia das escolas na acção
a ter no prosseguimento dos ideais educativos.
Dos órgãos de gestão intermédia da estrutura hierárquica da escola o que mereceu a
nossa atenção foi o departamento curricular representado pelo respectivo coordenador, pelo
facto do Decreto-Lei n.º 75/2008, de 22 de Abril, o considerar a principal estrutura de
coordenação e supervisão pedagógica.
Por esta razão, o coordenador de departamento é considerado o impulsionador do
trabalho que é realizado pelos outros dentro do mesmo grupo de acção, influindo na
determinação de procedimentos com vista ao alcance dos objectivos organizacionais.
Consequentemente e segundo o que está previsto na lei e na análise documental
orientámos este estudo a partir das seguintes questões: será que os coordenadores de
departamento conhecem, cumprem e obedecem com as competências e funções que lhe são
atribuídas? Será que eles induzem competências de liderança e de mediação?
Para podermos analisar e concluir relações no âmbito da investigação que nos
propusemos efectuar, nomeadamente o papel e as funções do coordenador de departamento e
a relação da sua função com os parâmetros afectos à liderança e mediação – que são os
objectivos mais gerais deste estudo – efectuámos um trabalho de pesquisa descritiva
conduzido por um inquérito, realizado por uma entrevista. Esta foi feita aos coordenadores de
departamento de uma escola secundária, optando, portanto, por um estudo de caso.
Para evidenciar empiricamente os elementos significativos recolhidos pela análise que
fizemos ao conteúdo das entrevistas optamos pela sua sistematização racional agrupada em
categorias.
Deste estudo pudemos concluir que, neste caso concreto, os coordenadores de
departamento não mostram capacidade de resiliência ao determinado nos diplomas legais e no
que os teóricos aludem, descentrando-a para os responsáveis das áreas de recrutamento
disciplinar.
### ABSTRACT
Given the concentration and abundance of the school principal’s responsibilities, we
have noticed a tendency to value the importance of the middle management school structures
in the development and pursuit of the educational ideals.
From all the middle management bodies of the hierarchical structure of schools, what
dove our attention was the academic department represented by its head, once the Decreto-Lei
nº 75/2008, 22nd April, considers it the leading structure in pedagogical coordination and
supervision.
This being so, the head of department is seen as the driving force of the work that is
done by all the other members of the same group of action, influencing in the decision making
concerning the proceedings that are to agree with the organizational objectives.
As a consequence, and according to what is stated in the law and in the document
analysis, we have led this study starting with the questions: do the heads of department know,
fulfill and obey the competencies and functions they have been attributed? Do they show
leading and mediation skills?
In order to analyze and draw conclusions about established relations in the field of the
investigation we have set ourselves upon, namely the role and the functions of the head of
department and the relation of their function with the standards concerning leadership and
mediation - which are the most general objectives of this study – we have made a work of
descriptive research through an inquiry by means of an interview, which was made to the
heads of department of a secondary school. We have thus opted for a case study.
To empirically emphasize the most significant elements that we have gotten through
the analysis we have made of the contents of the interviews, we have opted for a rational
systematization grouped into categories.
From this study we can conclude that, in this particular case, the heads of department
don’t seem to be resilient to the contents of the legislative enactments and the existing
theories, delivering it to the ones who are responsible for the school recruitment areas.

Journeys of Portuguese athletes to sporting success: the peaks and troughs
This research examined the experiences of eight Portuguese (former) elite athletes from a social scientific
perspective. In so doing it attempted to move away from the tentacles of achievement sport and, in particular, the
performance efficiency model that dominates elite sport. Rather, it focused on the subjective and qualitative
experiences of sportspeople themselves and gave them a forum to reflect upon the primary socializing agents
that played a key role in their sporting success, and on the peaks and troughs on their journeys to sporting
success, nationally and internationally. The research design included semi-structured interviews with athletes
that excelled in athletics, handball, gymnastics, korfball and swimming. All eight had achieved outstanding
results nationally and internationally. A qualitative approach was adopted for data collection and analysis.
Giving voice to the former athletes themselves revealed much about: the primary socializing agents for sport in
their lives, as young, teenage and adult athletes; those role models and mentors that influenced their initial and
ongoing involvement and specialization in sport, these being the family (usually parents), physical education
teachers and peers; and, finally, the peaks and troughs in their careers which usually hinged around sporting
success or defeat, failure to achieve expected results, and the onset and impact of injury. Taken together, these
findings reverberate with those of other researchers beyond the Lusophone world. They also indicate the
emergence and development of a sports ethic in Portugal despite the comparatively late entry of that country into
the global sporting arms race.info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersio
