Muitos pesquisadores acreditam que a Internet está “ossificada”, ou seja, sua própria estrutura a impede de evoluir em aspectos como segurança, mobilidade e distribuição de conteúdo. No entanto, há uma dificuldade em testar novas ideias em ambiente de produção como a Internet devido aos requisitos de estabilidade dos mesmos. Este impasse levou parte da comunidade de pesquisa em Redes de Computadores a construir infraestruturas em larga escala chamadas testbeds, onde pesquisadores podem montar sua “própria” rede privada e então testar suas ideias em um ambiente similar à Internet. Este trabalho discute os desafios de uma das principais tarefas de um testbed: monitoração. Para tal, foi realizado um levantamento do estado da arte em sistemas de monitoração para testbeds e, a partir deste estudo, foi identificado, descrito e implementado um conjunto de casos de uso de monitoração no contexto do testbed FIBRE. A implementação destes casos de uso validou as propostas deste trabalho, as quais podem também ser aplicadas a outros ambientes similares.

Full textIncludes bibliographical references (leaves 115-121).
The technique of in vivo neutron activation analysis has been used for the determination of various elements in the human body. There are two methods of measuring nitrogen in vivo: (n,2n) method and prompt gamma neutron activation analysis (PGNAA). The first method utilizes the fast neutron reaction 14 N(n,2n) 13N and the second uses the thermal reaction 14N(n,y)1 N. Both methods are currently in use at several different facilities for evaluation of the nutritional status of surgical patients or metabolic study of normal human subjects. In order for the absolute determination of nitrogen, it is necessary to obtain the uniform sensitivity of detection in the subject. Experimental factors which influence the sensitivity are the activating neutron flux and the absolute detector efficiency. The distribution of the two factors in the human body is dependent on the spectral characteristics of the neutron source, the geometries of irradiation and counting systems and the size of the subject. In this thesis investigations of sensitivity and absorbed dose of the two nitrogen methods are made based on the results of Monte Carlo simulation. Two experimental facilities utilizing the (n,2n) method and the PGNAA method are simulated to assess the suitability and the feasibility of in vivo measurement of nitrogen. The potential of the use of an electrostatic tandem accelerator as a neutron source for nitrogen measurement is examined by simulating hypothetical experimental set-ups. Furthermore, those results obtained by the simulation are verified by performing accuracy measurements by the (n,2n) method. The counting system designed for human thigh measurement is described. The (n,2n) method delivers about half of the equivalent dose of the PGNAA method with same irradiation time. The simulation results showed 10 - 20 times higher sensitivity for the (n,2n) method than the PGNAA technique, depending on the patient position for the irradiation. The simulation results for the accelerator sources presented higher sensitivity than the 238Pu-Be radionuclide source conventionally used.

Full textPsychosomatic pathology is common in the paediatric population. Many children present with somatic symptoms that are often transient and non-impairing and do not need medical care; however, there is a subgroup whose symptoms are chronic, impairing, leading to health-seeking behaviour and associated with psychiatric pathology, who can meet criteria for a Somatoform Disorder. This group constitute a real health concern if not identified and treated properly, as symptoms can persist into adolescence and adulthood with severe personal, economic and public health consequences. The three papers and thus this thesis, was motivated by a need to know more about the phenomenon of paediatric somatisation in British general population by using the CSI-35 (Children’s Somatization Inventory) and studying its psychometric properties. Paper 1 investigates the use of the CSI-35 in a community sample of 1251 Secondary school students and documents the frequency of the physical symptoms and their impact in terms of functional impairment and medical help seeking in British young people. This was the first time that impairment and perceptions of stress were studied in a British general population in the context of CSI identified somatic symptoms. In addition to exploring the use of the CSI in a new population, and since abdominal pains are one of the most commonly reported functional symptoms in children and young people, this was singled out and studied in this sample. Although acute and recurrent abdominal pain is one of the main presentations in children attending primary care services in the UK, there has been little work on the prevalence rates, impairment and medical help seeking behaviour associated with abdominal pain in British adolescent community samples. Therefore Paper 2 explored the relationship between abdominal pain and other symptoms reported by the CSI, as well as investigating its associations with stress and psychological problems, impairment and medical help seeking. Research indicates that frequent attenders account for a large proportion of contacts with general practice; it has been estimated that the top 10% of frequent attenders account for 30-50% of all such contacts. However, research in this area has mainly focused on adult populations and has consistently shown that frequent primary care attenders experience psychosocial disadvantage, have high rates of physical disease, an excess of psychiatric difficulties, high levels of somatisation, and high rates of using other health services. Adolescent primary health care attendance has been neglected, perhaps because adolescents are perceived to rarely attend. This perception is misguided since national statistics indicate that in the UK, 50-70% of young people attend their general practitioner with an approximate average of two consultations per year. High rates of psychiatric disorder and emotional symptoms have been reported amongst adolescent primary care attenders, therefore it may be expected that this association will be particularly marked in those who attend frequently. Given that medical help seeking is a key feature of somatisation, it seems likely that adolescents with functional somatic symptoms will be over represented amongst frequent attenders to primary care. However, very little work has been done on the contribution of functional somatic symptoms, alongside other psychosocial problems, to the frequency of general practice consultations amongst young people, indicating a gap in our knowledge. Therefore this was the focus of Paper 3.
