Maleku: an evolutionary visual software analytics tool for providing insights into software evolution

Software maintenance is a complex process that requires the understanding and comprehension of software project details. It involves the understanding of the evolution of the software project, hundreds of software components and the relationships among software items in the form of inheritance, interface implementation, coupling and cohesion. Consequently, the aim of evolutionary visual software analytics is to support software project managers and developers during software maintenance. It takes into account the mining of evolutionary data, the subsequent analysis of the results produced by the mining process for producing evolution facts, the use of visualizations supported by interaction techniques and the active participation of users. Hence, this paper proposes an evolutionary visual software analytics tool for the exploration and comparison of project structural, interface implementation and class hierarchy data, and the correlation of structural data with metrics, as well as socio-technical relationships. Its main contribution is a tool that automatically retrieves evolutionary software facts and represent them using a scalable visualization design

Enfermedad de Lyme: Un ente en espera de reconocimiento

La borreliosis de Lyme es un padecimiento reconocido en Europa y EUA producida por una espiroqueta a la que se le ha dado el nombre de Borrelia burgdorferi debido a su descubridor, el Dr. Willy Burgdorfer, quien la aisló a partir de garrapatas infectadas con este agente, esta bacteria es transmitida por insectos hematofagos y afecta al hombre y a la mayoría de los animales domésticos. Las características clínicas principales de la enfermedad de Lyme en su fase temprana son: La aparición de una lesión anular expansiva en la piel, a la cual se denomina eritema crónico migratorio (etapa 1), anormalidades cardiacas y neurológicos (etapa 2), y por ultimo problemas artríticos (etepa 3)
