A distribuição do ônus da prova da demonstração de culpa in vigilando da administração pública para o empregado: exigência de prova diabólica que inviabiliza a concretização dos direitos trabalhistas

Este artigo científico busca analisar os aspectos mais relevantes acerca da inversão do ônus da prova no âmbito do Direito do Trabalho, considerando a teoria da distribuição dinâmica do ônus da prova, recentemente insculpida na CLT, de modo a confrontar com a decisão do STF do tema de Repercussão Geral nº 246, representado pelo RE nº 760.931, em 30/3/2017, que, reformando entendimento prevalecente do TST, entendeu ser do reclamante o ônus de comprovar a culpa in vigilando da Administração Pública nos casos em que ela contrata empresas para atingir seus objetivos e essas empresas são alvos de reclamações trabalhistas. Este trabalho, por meio da pesquisa doutrinária e jurisprudencial buscará proporcionar uma crítica à referida decisão do STF, assim como confrontar os principais argumentos da decisão da Suprema Corte. Para tanto, foi escolhida a pesquisa e abordagem qualitativa, quanto aos métodos, o hipotético e o dedutivo. Foi feita uma revisão bibliográfica por meio de visitas a sítios eletrônicos e de plataformas de artigos científicos, assim como livros

Application of entropy measures to analysis of performance in team sports

Over the last years, several researchers have been claiming that team ball sports may be viewed as dynamical systems and, thus, they should be thoroughly investigated using congruent concepts and tools. The study of variability in the sport performance domain has shown potential to contribute with valuable information about tactical behaviours related with space and time management within ever changing task constraints featuring team sports contests. Here we detail how different entropy measures have been applied to the study of performance variability to uncover the interactions underlying players and teams’ performances. With that purpose, urging issues related with information entropy, approximate entropy and sample entropy applications are discussed as a mean to enrich the state of the art in team sport performance. In sum, measurements of entropy in team sports have shown great potential to assess the uncertainty of players’ spatial distributions and dominant regions areas and of several collective team behaviours (e.g., team synchrony and team dispersion) throughout the course of a match. Entropy can also be used as a potential tool to identify expert performances and differentiate skilled from novice athletes. Future holds many other applications of this statistic in the context of performance analysis in sports, and the inclusion of new and more sophisticated entropy algorithms

Processo de Integração e Entrega Contínua para Aplicações Baseadas em Análise de Dados

Processos de entrega de software tradicionais não são eficientes para uma empresa que produz software se manter competitiva. A crescente necessidade de entregar software em ciclos cada vez mais curtos fomentou o crescimento de abordagens e tecnologias que permitam automatizar este tipo de processos. No entanto, estas abordagens apresentam limitações quando a qualidade de entrega do software depende da qualidade dos dados que o mesmo produz. Com isso em mente, o principal objetivo desta dissertação consiste em adotar um mecanismo de entrega de software automático, eficaz, eficiente e fiável dentro da proGrow S.A. de forma a que o seu principal negócio, que é a geração de informação a partir de dados recolhidos, seja feito da forma mais eficiente e fiável possível. Após a análise detalhada do estado de arte atual, foi elaborada uma solução que implementa uma pipeline de implantação que incluí uma estratégia de testes que desafia o paradigma de testes tradicional, projetada para o contexto das soluções desenvolvidas. Deste modo, a solução é capaz de entregar software automaticamente, garantindo a sua qualidade através de uma estratégia de testes robusta, capaz de validar a qualidade da aplicação através dos seus dados. Assim, a solução desenvolvida é capaz de reduzir o tempo de desenvolvimento de uma nova versão, bem como garantir que o processo de escrutínio para deteção de erros nos dados gerados é feito de forma automática e repetível, com o objetivo de criar um padrão de qualidade nos dados gerados.Traditional software delivery processes are not efficient for a company that produces software to remain competitive. The growing need to deliver software in ever shorter cycles has fostered the growth of approaches and technologies that make it possible to automate this type of process. However, these approaches have limitations when the quality of software delivery depends on the quality of the data it produces. With this in mind, the main goal of this dissertation is to adopt an automatic, effective, efficient and reliable software delivery mechanism within proGrow S.A. so that its core business, which is generating information from collected data, is done in the most efficient and reliable way possible. After a detailed analysis of the current state of the art, a solution was devised that implements a deployment pipeline that includes a testing strategy that challenges the traditional testing paradigm, designed for the context of the solutions developed. In this way, the solution is able to deliver software automatically, guaranteeing its quality through a robust testing strategy, capable of validating the quality of the application through its data. Thus, the solution developed is able to reduce the development time of a new version, as well as ensuring that the scrutiny process for detecting errors in the data generated is done automatically and repeatably, with the aim of creating a quality standard in the data generated

Prevalence of facial fractures in Brazil / Prevalência das fraturas faciais do Brasil

The present project, a research related to maxillofacial surgery and traumatology, has the purpose of studying the prevalence of facial fractures in Brazil. It is not today that the fractures of the face affect the human being. From the earliest times, man had already had an interest in the subject. In contemporary times, it is known that the facial fracture is due to the discontinuity of the bone tissue of some component of the viscerocranium when a certain physical-mechanical force is exerted against such a bone element. Facial bones are engineered to provide protection and contouring of the face, as well as collaborate in the respiratory, phonetic and digestive systems. Therefore, there is some inequality in the prevalence of maxillofacial fractures, in which the nasal bones are the most affected, followed by the zygomatic bones, which are characterized as the most prominent. However, this may vary according to the etiological agent. According to a survey done in the Bauru region (SP), 1996, as an example, zygomatic fracture (29.2%) and orbit (44%) are predominantly due to aggressions, and the maxilla (35.5% %) of automobile accidents. A survey conducted in the northeast of the country in 2016 showed that the traffic accident prevailed with 52% while the violence showed 34%. Another study carried out in the south of Brazil presents the same etiology pattern for automobile accidents, with a percentage of 27.9%, but in relation to interpersonal violence did not present specific data. The humbler regions are predominantly the most affected by this etiology, when compared to the noblest regions of the city. Among the etiologies mentioned in the screen project, those that predominate are those derived from motor vehicle traffic and interpersonal violence. Other causes, such as work accidents, domestic accidents, falls, sports and recreation, are also highlighted. Each author rates the fractures so that they best suit them. It can take into account the anatomy, the vulnerability agent, the therapeutic action, the amplitude and the trait of the fracture. In view of the problem presented above, the work aims to group fracture data nationally. In order to provide possible alerts and solutions to ensure and ensure greater security for the country

Search for a dijet resonance in events with jets and missing transverse energy in pp̄ collisions at √s=1.96 TeV

We report on a search for a dijet resonance in events with only two or three jets and a large imbalance in the total event transverse momentum. This search is sensitive to the possible production of a new particle in association with a W or Z boson, where the boson decays leptonically with one or more neutrinos in the final state. We use the full data set collected by the CDF II detector at the Tevatron collider at a proton-antiproton center-of-mass energy of 1.96 TeV. These data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 9.1 fb -1. We study the invariant mass distribution of the two jets with highest transverse energy. We find good agreement between data and standard model background expectations and measure the combined cross section for WW, WZ, and ZZ production to be 13.8-2.7+3.0 pb. No significant anomalies are observed in the mass spectrum, and 95% credibility level upper limits are set on the production rates of a potential new particle in association with a W or Z boson. © 2013 American Physical Society.This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy and National Science Foundation; the Italian Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare; the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan; the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada; the National Science Council of the Republic of China; the Swiss National Science Foundation; the A.

Varying numbers of players in small-sided soccer games modifies action opportunities during training

This study examined the effects of the numbers of players involved in small-sided team games (underloading and overloading) on opportunities for maintaining ball possession, shooting at goal and passing to teammates during training. These practice constraint manipulations were assumed to alter values of key performance variables identified in previous research, such as interpersonal distances between players and time to intercept shots and passes. Fifteen male soccer players (age: 19.60±1.99 years) were grouped into three teams and played against each other in different versions of small-sided soccer games, in which the number of players was manipulated in three different conditions: 5 vs. 5, 5 vs. 4 and 5 vs. 3. Dependent variables were the values of interpersonal distance between an outfield attacker and nearest defender (ID), and the relative distance of a defender needed to intercept the trajectory of a shot (RDishot) or pass (RDipass). Statistical analyses revealed that mean ID values were significantly lower in 5 vs. 5 than in 5 vs. 4 and 5 vs. 3 conditions, and significantly lower in 5 vs. 4 than 5 vs. 3. They also revealed that mean values of RDishot were significantly higher in 5 vs. 3 than in 5 vs. 5 conditions. Finally, results showed that the mean values of RDipass were significantly higher in 5 vs. 3 than in 5 vs. 5. Findings revealed how task constraints in SSGs can be manipulated to vary values of key spatial and temporal performance variables (interpersonal distance and time to intercept) to influence the nature of interpersonal interactions between competing players during practice. We observed that these manipulations tended to decrease opportunities for maintaining ball possession during training when equal numbers of attackers and defenders existed in SSGs, and led to more shots and passes emerging when the number of defenders was decreased relative to attackers

Measurement of the WW and WZ production cross section using final states with a charged lepton and heavy-flavor jets in the full CDF Run II data set

et al.We present a measurement of the total WW and WZ production cross sections in pp¯ collision at √s=1.96 TeV, in a final state consistent with leptonic W boson decay and jets originating from heavy-flavor quarks from either a W or a Z boson decay. This analysis uses the full data set collected with the CDF II detector during Run II of the Tevatron collider, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 9.4 fb-1. An analysis of the dijet mass spectrum provides 3.7σ evidence of the summed production processes of either WW or WZ bosons with a measured total cross section of σWW+WZ=13.7±3.9 pb. Independent measurements of the WW and WZ production cross sections are allowed by the different heavy-flavor decay patterns of the W and Z bosons and by the analysis of secondary-decay vertices reconstructed within heavy-flavor jets. The productions of WW and of WZ dibosons are independently seen with significances of 2.9σ and 2.1σ, respectively, with total cross sections of σWW=9.4±4.2 pb and σWZ=3.7-2.2+2.5 pb. The measurements are consistent with standard-model predictions.This work was supported by the U.S. Department of Energy and National Science Foundation; the Italian Istituto Nazionale di Fisica Nucleare; the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology of Japan; the Natural Sciences and Engineering Research Council of Canada; the National Science Council of the Republic of China; the Swiss National Science Foundation; the A.
