Treball Final de Grau en Traducció i Interpretació. Codi: TI0983. Curs acadèmic: 2015-2016El presente trabajo es un estudio de la interpretación que se lleva a cabo en la Ciudad de la Justicia de Valencia. Dicho complejo consta de distintos órganos e instancias que requieren de interpretación, tales como vistas judiciales, Policía Nacional o Instituto de Medicina Legal. La primera parte de este trabajo consiste en una revisión teórica sobre los tipos de interpretación que se desarrollan en la Ciudad de la Justicia de Valencia, a saber, la interpretación judicial, la interpretación policial y la interpretación en el Instituto de Medicina Legal. Se revisa la legislación vigente que se aplica a dicha actividad y se realiza un trabajo de campo sobre el sistema seguido en dicho complejo para contactar con los intérpretes. En la segunda parte del trabajo se presentan los resultados obtenidos a partir de un cuestionario administrado a usuarios del servicio de interpretación de la Ciudad de la Justicia de Valencia, tales como jueces, fiscales, abogados, policías judiciales, médicos-forenses y funcionarios del Registro Civil, con el fin de averiguar cuál es la percepción de la calidad de la interpretación en dichos operadores judiciales. Las conclusiones apuntan a una clara necesidad de reformar el sistema de interpretación vigente en la Comunidad Valenciana, además de un claro desinterés por enriquecerlo y adecuarlo a las necesidades actuales

Expresión oral a través del cómic con y sin palabras en Educación Infantil

En la mayoría de centros educativos predomina el modelo tradicional de enseñanza, en el que destaca la voz del maestro/a por encima de los alumnos. Por este motivo, la expresión oral es un ámbito educativo que no está muy presente en el aula, o no tan presente como se debería; y como consecuencia se presentan con frecuencia alumnos con dificultades en dicha área. En el presente trabajo, se pretende potenciar el lenguaje oral en las aulas, a la vez que concienciar a los maestros/as de su importancia. Asimismo, se busca dar a conocer un buen recurso como es el cómic, para fomentar y estimular la expresión oral en el aula. Además, se lleva a cabo una investigación acerca de dicho recurso, con la que se pretende recopilar información acerca de su utilización y las posibilidades que puede ofrecernos, tanto en educación infantil, como en educación primaria

Contributions to cost allocation problems and scarce resources

Esta tesis est a enmarcada dentro de la Teor a de Juegos, disciplina Matem atica de gran relevancia en Econom a por su alto grado de aplicabilidad en situaciones reales, como por ejemplo las derivadas del reparto de costes y/o bene cios o la distribuci on de recursos escasos, entre muchas otras. Una de las grandes referencias que da origen a esta rama de las Matem aticas es el libro "Theory of Games and Economic Behavior" de Oskar Morgenstern y John Von Neumann (Morgenstern and Von Neumann (1953)) al cual contribuy o de manera seminal con el desarrollo de los juegos m ultiples el Premio Nobel John Nash. El objetivo de esta tesis no es analizar c omo los individuos o agentes del juego toman sus decisiones sino proporcionar soluciones a los problemas planteados empleando procedimientos matem aticos que nos permiten dise~nar diferentes mecanismos o reglas que satisfacen uno o un conjunto de propiedades, tambi en llamadas axiomas, que caracterizan cada una de las reglas planteadas.This thesis is framed within Game Theory, a Mathematical discipline of great relevance in Economics due to its high degree of applicability in real situations, such as for example, those derived from the allocation of costs and/or bene ts or the distribution of scarce resources, among others. One of the great references that gives rise to this branch of Mathematics is the book "Theory of Games and Economic Behavior" by Oskar Morgenstern and John Von Neumann (Morgenstern and Von Neumann (1953)) to which the Nobel Laureate John Nash contributed with the development of multiple games. The objective of this thesis is not to analyze how the individuals or agents of the game make their decisions, otherwise to provide solutions to the problems proposed using mathematical procedures that allow us to design di erent mechanisms or rules that satisfy one or a set of properties, also called axioms, that characterize each one of the proposed rules

El cambio climático en las Facultades de Medicina

According to recent studies, the majority of the Spanish population believes that climate change (CC) is real and identifies it as something negative. CC is not only one of the transcendental environmental challenges that humanity faces on a global scale, but also influences many sectors, reaching its maximum exponent in the area of health.Según recientes trabajos, la mayoría de la población española cree que el cambio climático (CC) es real y lo identifican como algo negativo. El CC no es sólo uno de los retos ambientales trascendentales a los que se enfrenta la humanidad a escala global, sino que influye sobre muchos sectores, alcanzando su máximo exponente en el área de la salud

Unilateral neonatal cerebral infarction in full term infants

Abstract AIMS: To determine the prevalence of unilateral neonatal cerebral infarction in infants born at 32 weeks gestation and above; to describe the clinical course, imaging results, and outcome of neonatal cerebral infarction; and to investigate possible aetiology. METHODS: Twelve cases of unilateral neonatal cerebral infarction were identified from neonatal unit records for the years 1987-93. Each case was matched with two controls. RESULTS: All cases of neonatal cerebral infarction occurred in full term infants. The prevalence was around 1 in 4000, and neonatal cerebral infarction was found in 12% of infants presenting with neonatal seizures. Cerebral ultrasound scans failed to demonstrate lesions seen by computed tomography in nine of 12 cases. Cases were more likely than controls to require assisted ventilation for resuscitation at birth (OR 7.0, 95% confidence interval 1.04-53.5), but Apgar scores at 5 minutes were no different. One infant with neonatal cerebral infarction developed a hemiparesis, the other 11 had normal motor development when assessed at 11-60 (median 33) months. None had overt cognitive deficits or persisting seizure disorder. CONCLUSIONS: Neonatal cerebral infarction is a relatively common cause of neonatal seizures, but the aetiology remains unclear. Parents need to be made aware of possible neurological sequelae, but most cases in this series had a normal outcome

On the Real-Time Hardware Implementation Feasibility of Joint Radio Resource Management Policies for Heterogeneous Wireless Networks

The study and design of Joint Radio Resource Management (JRRM) techniques is a key and challenging aspect in future heterogeneous wireless systems where different Radio Access Technologies will physically coexist. In these systems, the total available radio resources need to be used in a coordinated way to guarantee adequate satisfaction levels to all users, and maximize the system revenues. In addition to carry out an efficient use of the available radio resources, JRRM algorithms need to exhibit good computational performance to guarantee their future implementation viability. In this context, this paper proposes novel JRRM techniques based on linear programming techniques, and investigates their computational cost when implemented in DSP platforms commonly used in mobile base stations. The obtained results demonstrate the feasibility to implement the proposed JRRM algorithms in future heterogeneous wireless systems

Sensing-Based Grant-Free Scheduling for Ultra Reliable Low Latency and Deterministic Beyond 5G Networks

5G and beyond networks should efficiently support services with stringent and diverse QoS requirements. This includes services for verticals that demand Ultra Reliable and Low Latency Communications (URLLC). Scheduling strongly impacts the communication latency, and 5G NR introduces grant-free scheduling to reduce the latency at the radio level. Grant-free scheduling can use shared resources and the transmission of K replicas per packet to increase the packet delivery ratio and efficiently utilize the spectrum. Previous studies have shown that existing 5G NR grant-free scheduling has limitations to sustain URLLC requirements for aperiodic (or uncertain) and deterministic traffic that is characteristic of verticals such as Industry 4.0 or manufacturing. In this context, this paper proposes and evaluates a novel grant-free scheduling scheme that can efficiently support deterministic and aperiodic uplink traffic. The scheme avoids packet collisions among UEs sharing resources using a priority-based contention resolution process that relies on the transmission of announcement messages in minislots and a local channel sensing process. This study demonstrates that the proposed sensing-based grant-free scheduling scheme outperforms current 5G NR grant-free scheduling implementations, and can support a higher number of UEs with URLLC and deterministic requirements with a considerably lower number of radio resources.This work has been funded by MCIN/AEI/10.13039/ 501100011033 through the project PID2020-115576RB-I00and FSE funds through the grant PRE2018-084743,the Generalitat Valenciana through the project CIGE/2021/096,by a research grant awarded by the Vicerrectorado de Investigación of the UMH (2022)

Mode Selection for Multi-Hop Cellular Networks with Mobile Relays

Multi-hop Cellular Networks using Mobile Relays (MCN-MRs) are being investigated to help address certain limitations of traditional single-hop cellular communications. A key element of MCN-MR technologies is the mode selection scheme that selects the most adequate connection mode (traditional single hop cellular or multi-hop link) for each transmission. This paper proposes a novel mode selection scheme that uses context information to select the connection mode, and can adapt its decisions to the operating conditions. This study shows that the proposed scheme outperforms distance-based mode selection schemes, and helps improving the MCN-MR performance with respect to single-hop cellular communications

5G RAN Slicing to Support Reliability in Industrial Applications

Industry 4.0 and 5.0 applications will contribute towards safer, zero-defect and customized production environments. Such applications (e.g. digital twins, collaborative robotics and extended reality) require communication networks capable to satisfy stringent latency, bandwidth, and reliability requirements. Such requirements can be sustained with 5G networks and their evolution that offer unprecedented communications performance and flexibility thanks to the softwarization of networks and the use of network slicing. Network slicing creates different logical partitions or slices of the common network infrastructure and configures each slice to the requirements of the applications it will support. RAN (Radio Access Network) slicing is a fundamental part of network slicing in 5G as the radio channel is prone to errors and this impacts the capacity to support stringent reliability requirements. To date, RAN slices have been created considering the number of radio resources that must be reserved to guarantee the transmission rate or bandwidth demanded by the applications they will serve. This study demonstrates that this design approach cannot guarantee satisfying the reliability requirements of industrial applications and proposes a novel RAN slice descriptor that takes into account both the reliability and transmission rate requirements of the applications.This work has been funded by MCIN/AEI/10.13039/ 501100011033 through the project PID2020-115576RB-I00,FSE funds through the grant PRE2018-084743, by the Generalitat Valenciana through the project CIGE/2021/096and by a research grant awarded by the Vicerrectorado de Investigación of the UMH (2022)
