Conceptual modeling has always been one of the main issues in
information systems engineering as it aims to describe the general
knowledge of the system at an abstract level that facilitates user
understanding and software development. This collection of selected
papers provides a comprehensive and extremely readable overview of
what conceptual modeling is and perspectives on making it more and
more relevant in our society. It covers topics like modeling the
human genome, blockchain technology, model-driven software
development, data integration, and wiki-like repositories and
demonstrates the general applicability of conceptual modeling to
various problems in diverse domains. Overall, this book is a source
of inspiration for everybody in academia working on the vision of
creating a strong, fruitful and creative community of conceptual
modelers. With this book the editors and authors want to honor
Prof. Antoni Olive for his enormous and ongoing contributions to
the conceptual modeling discipline. It was presented to him on the
occasion of his keynote at ER 2017 in Valencia, a conference that
he has contributed to and supported for over 20 years. Thank you
very much to Antoni for so many years of cooperation and
friendship.
La prevalencia de la obesidad y el sobrepeso infantojuvenil aumenta
con el paso del tiempo. Las repercusiones fisicas, psiquicas,
sociales y emocionales producidas por estas patologias dificultan
el desarrollo integral del estudiante. El exceso de peso esta
directamente relacionado con la dieta, el ejercicio fisico y el
sedentarismo. Este proyecto es una propuesta de intervencion hacia
el alumnado de educacion secundaria obligatoria para disminuir la
incidencia del sobrepeso y obesidad. Se estructura en tres unidades
didacticas en los que se muestra la importancia de la condicion
fisica y los habitos saludables en la salud. Se impartiran los
contenidos del curriculo adecuados a esta problematica. La
metodologia de ensenanza sera constructivista. El proposito de este
trabajo es que el alumnado comprenda las consecuencias de sus
estilos de vida, aumente su capacidad critica y reflexiva para
seleccionar aquellos habitos que le reporten beneficios y los ponga
en practica en su vida.
"A Doll's House" is considered by many to be the first truly
feminist play, reaching its climax as protagonist Nora rejects her
marriage and her smothering life. "The Master Builder "explores the
needs of the artist versus those of society, as well as the limits
of artistic creativity, as aging architect Halvard Solness feels
pressure from a younger, more idealistic and ambitious generation
of architects and fears the decay of his own creativity. Casa de
munecas" es considerada por muchos como la primera obra teatral
feminista, llegando a su climax cuando la protagonista Nora rechaza
su matrimonio y su vida sofocante. "Solness, el constructor"
explora las necesidades del artista versus las de la sociedad, a la
vez que los limites de la creatividad artistica, mediante el
envejeciente arquitecto Halvard Solness quien se siente presionado
por una generacion mas joven, idealista y ambiciosa de arquitectos,
y quien teme el decaimiento de su propia creatividad. "
Since the "cultural turn" in the 1990s, increasing attention has
been paid to ideological concerns and gender issues in relation to
translation studies. This volume is a further illustration of this
trend and focuses on the intersection of translation theory and
practice with ideological constraints and gender issues in a
variety of cross-cultural, geographical and historical contexts.
The book is divided into three parts, with the first devoted to the
health sciences, examining gender bias in medical textbooks, and
the language and sociocultural barriers involved in obtaining
health services in Morocco. The second part addresses the
interaction of the three themes on the representation of gender and
the construction of the female image both in diverse narrative
texts and the presence of women in the translation of poetic works
in Franco's Spain. Finally, Part Three explores editorial policies
and translator ethics in relation to feminist writing or
translation in the context of Europe with special reference to
Italy, and in the world of magazines aimed at a female readership.
This book presents various studies that go beyond the mere
opposition between macro and micro determinants of social and
family changes. The cross-cultural, transdisciplinary and
generational perspectives on selection of the partner, marriage,
cohabitation, LAT relationships, divorces, ageing and interchanges,
children, types of households, inheritance and construction of the
domestic space contribute to deepen the analysis of diversity in
families and their multiple interactions with cultural,
demographic, economic, and social processes. The authors reveal the
complex connections between the internal and external spheres of
the family, the historical moments and contexts, the
intergenerational experiences, the macro-structural processes and
the individuals' multiple possibilities of action, between the
everyday decision-making and the changes in the families'
practices. Exceptional situations, such as catastrophes or economic
crises, contribute to the diversification of the family and promote
retrocession in gender equality. Crisis and war intensify female
care and domestic work. Diversification implies that families are
not adscripted to closed systems, determined automatically within
also closed societies that portray family as a miniature reflection
of social structures. Deconstructing this myth, most of the authors
recognize family diversity and its variations in space and time.
The understanding of the economic, social, cultural and demographic
family processes and practices permits to relate population and
society. The duplication of the life expectancy and the reduction
of births by almost one half in entire populations worldwide lie
behind marriage markets, reproductive practices, generational
availability, coexistence probabilities, intergenerational exchange
and new and different familial arrangements. Increases in life
expectancy and changes in the timing and number of children lead
social actors to reconsider gender and generational roles; the
solidarity among generations has another background and acquires
different meanings; although there has been an increase in gender
equality, it has come with an increased social inequality within
the countries and among them. Demographic processes are an inherent
part of social processes, and the age structure of the populations
constitutes the human and biological basis for the analysis of
social behaviors that these populations choose to reproduce, as
well as for the understanding of the differences in the
distribution of resources into and between countries, genders,
generations and social groups.
