Full textNexo Lubricantes case describes the problem faced by the company from the perspective of Carlos, the "new" General Manager, in the context of his first year. Nexo Lubricantes (Nexo) was a subsidiary of Primax (Grupo Romero) created in 2011 to be Shell's lubricant macro-distributor in Peru. The Shell brand decided to close its direct lubricant business operations in Peru in 2010 and delegate this responsibility to Nexo. The Shell brand was the number one lubricants brand in the world based on its technological leadership derived from a large investment in research and development, working together with the main OEMs and an important investment in marketing. This global leadership had a long tradition in Peru where the brand had managed to be the leading brand with over 30% market share; It was a brand recognized by consumers and industrial customers with a Premium positioning. It had national distribution, a professional commercial team with well structured processes, consistent investment in marketing over time, mainly concentrated in the channel, and a complete technical service. Under these conditions, Nexo received the duty to represent the brand in the country. For its part, the Romero Group offered financial strength, investment capacity, knowledge of the country and a network of service stations that was an interesting channel to sell lubricants. The results for Nexo were worrying, from 2011 to 2016, every year, sales volume had fallen consistently, losing market share; and in the last year, reducing its margin. This situation could not continue because the board of Nexo and Shell, expected sustainable growth and maintain the leadership in the market. Carlos believed that the loss of competitiveness was mainly due to high prices, derived from a succession of cost increases that Shell had transferred to Nexo. He also recognized that business processes and sales discipline had declined as time passed and the team rotated. The market grew moderately as lubricants were a mature industry; Growth was driven by the increase in the automotive park and sectors of the economy such as mining, fishing and construction. The competitive context was intense; In the B2B, Mobil was the most important competitor of Shell and it kept operating in the country directly, with a local production plant, which gave it a shorter and more efficient value chain and this was reflected in the market with a aggressive offer in prices and a full-level technical service. Castrol brand was the other classic competitor of Shell, focused on the B2C market; this brand was also in an indirect model and had lost market share due to its high prices. To compete in the B2C market, they had entered a group of new brands known as "new entrants", these brands were growing significantly based on aggressive prices, good margin for the channel and a portfolio of quality products similar to premium brands. How to recover the lost competitiveness? This case can be applied in postgraduate leadership and strategy courses. The objective is to introduce students to a real dilemma to solve, analyzing the internal and external key factors that determine the results of the business and through this analysis, identify opportunities, threats, strengths and weaknesses. Then the students can propose commercial strategies to solve the problem.

Full textThe morass of hasty and reckless legislation passed in various countries to deal with the creation and termination of embryonic life shows that few are prepared to deal with exigencies of ectogenesis when it arrives insidiously or abruptly. Moreover, Eastern thought and traditions will conflict with Western ideology with respect to the beginning and maintenance of human life. This thesis suggests that the language, structure and philosophy of the United Kingdom's Human Fertilisation and Embryology Act is well crafted and should be considered as a world-wide paradigm. This thesis also suggests that ectogenesis will mandate that the interests of the developing fetus override notions of reproductive autonomy.

The power requirements of automotive alternators are increasing significantly due to the introduction of new vehicle electrical loads. Moreover, the possible transition to a 42 V electrical system is introducing new concerns regarding the load dump overvoltage transient of alternators. This thesis makes several contributions to the power density, efficiency, and transient performance of future alternators. A comparison and design optimization of four alternator types is conducted to identify the least cost alternator that meets the challenging requirements of future automobiles. Alternator designs with conventional diode rectifiers and switched-mode rectifiers are investigated. It is found that optimized Lundell alternators are capable of meeting the demands of future systems, and that wound field synchronous machines may also be competitive. It is also found that incorporation of a simple switched-mode rectifier enables substantial improvements in designs optimized for their use. The behavior of the Lundell alternator under load dump transient conditions is studied. It is found that rotor eddy currents limit the rate at which the machine can be de-excited to terminate the transient overvoltage. Models for the de-excitation process are developed based on experimental measurements, and new field control circuits are proposed that provide fast field de-excitation.
(cont.) The use of foil field windings in Lundell alternators to improve alternator power density is also explored. Foil field windings are shown to provide higher conductor packing factors than conventional wire wound fields (e.g. 73% as opposed to 64% for a typical wire wound design) and offer improved thermal transfer properties. These advantages are demonstrated to enable significant increases in field ampere turns and achievable alternator output power. However, realizing these advantages requires new field excitation circuits that can deliver high field currents at low voltages, without exceeding the limited current ratings of alternator brushes. Two new field excitation circuits capable of meeting the needs of foil field windings are developed and experimentally demonstrated. The first field excitation circuit is based on the use of a coreless printed circuit board transformer with a rotating secondary for contactless transfer of power to the rotor. A stationary inverter delivers high frequency ac to the transformer primary, and the power received by the transformer secondary is rectified and delivered to the field. This approach eliminates the need for brushes, and their associated wear and current limitations.
(cont.) This rotating transformer topology is designed, built and tested at standstill with a foil wound bobbin. Experimental results demonstrate that a 51% increase in ampere turns on the rotor can be delivered with this approach, which is more than sufficient for practical applications. The second class of field excitation circuits developed in this thesis uses a DC/DC converter on the rotating side to provide a step down in voltage and a step up in current for the foil field. Control information is communicated to the rotating converter to regulate the field. An experimental alternator implementing a foil field winding and this excitation circuit is developed and experimentally validated. Tests at idle speed demonstrate an improvement of 15% in alternator output power, and an approximate increase of 30% in field ampere turns for similar temperature limits. It is anticipated that significantly larger power improvements could be achieved if the alternator stator were redesigned to take advantage of this improved field capability.

Two novel techniques for future CAT system are presented. Transmission descattering is a singleshot method to differentiate unscattered and scattered components of light transmission through a scattering material. Directly-transmitted components travel in a straight line from the light source, while scattered components originate from multiple scattering centers in the volume. Angularly varying scattered light is strategically captured via a lenslet array placed close to the image plane and the unscattered direct component is computed based on separable scattered components. The disadvantage is a reduction in spatial resolution. As an application, the enhanced tomographic reconstruction is demonstrated using estimated direct transmission images. The other technique is single-shot 3D reconstruction of a translucent object. Multiple light sources form images of a translucent object at different projection angles onto a screen. Those images are captured by a single-photo in a coded format via lenslet array. The projection image casted from each light source is separated from each other by a decoding process and in turn the images are combined to reconstruct 3D shape of the translucent object by ART method.

Full textLa comunicación por satélite desempeñará un papel central en el cumplimiento de los requisitos de comunicación 5G de próxima generación. Como cuestión de hecho, la conectividad cualquier momento y lugar no se puede concebir sin la presencia del segmento satelital. De hecho, la industria de la comunicación por satélite no sólo se dirige a los mercados populares, sino también a la alta densas zonas pobladas donde el satélite se convertirá en un elemento esencial para descongestionar la red inalámbrica terrestre. Para entregar el tráfico de datos interactiva de banda ancha, las cargas útiles de satélites están implementando un diagrama de radiación de haces múltiples. El uso de una arquitectura multihaz aporta varias ventajas frente a un único haz de transmisión global. En primer lugar, como se emplea un reflector alimentado matriz, la ganancia de antena a ruido puede aumentar dando lugar a una alta ganancia en el rendimiento alcanzable. En segundo lugar, diferentes símbolos pueden ser enviados simultáneamente a las áreas separadas geográficamente, lo que permite una comunicación multiplexada espacialmente. Por último, pero no menos importante, el ancho de banda disponible puede ser reutilizado en las vigas suficientemente separadas, el aumento de la reutilización del espectro en el área de cobertura global. Cada vez que los diseñadores de sistemas se dirigen el sistema de satélites terabit se reconsideró la arquitectura multihaz mencionado. De hecho, las tasas alcanzables pueden ser extremadamente aumentaron en caso de reutilización de frecuencias más agresiva está desplegado y las técnicas de reducción de interferencias se implementan ya sea en el terminal de usuario (detección multiusuario) o en el transmisor (precodificación). Nuestros estudio aborda el problema de precodificación y filtrado lineal recibir métodos para sistemas de satélites multihaz cuando se considera la reutilización de frecuencias completa. Concretamente, consideramos las restricciones particulares de comunicaciones por satélite que, en contraste con los sistemas de comunicación terrestres, sufren de desventajas adicionales. En primer lugar, el enlace de conexión deberá agregar el tráfico global de datos que conduce a un requisito tasa muy grande. Esta velocidad de datos requerida es incluso aumentó cada vez filtrado lineal en el enlace de retorno y precodificación en el enlace directo se despliegan. Esto se debe a que las señales de alimentación, que son más grandes que el número de haces, se computarán en el suelo. Con el fin de resolver este problema, se propone una arquitectura híbrida, donde la carga útil del satélite está equipado con un procesamiento fijo. Este procesamiento a bordo transforma linealmente los datos recibidos y transmitidos con el fin de mantener el requisito de baja tasa de enlace de conexión. Los resultados del procesamiento de a bordo para ser el mismo para ambos enlaces directo y de retorno, dando lugar a una gran reducción de la complejidad de carga útil, la masa y el coste. En segundo lugar, como el tráfico de datos puede ser generada por diferentes puertas de enlace, el método de precodificación deberá ser diseñado en consecuencia. A diferencia de los trabajos anteriores, este trabajo estudia el caso en que la colaboración entre las diferentes pasarelas es limitado. Además de la contribución anterior, en este trabajo también se investigan algunos aspectos inexplorados de multi-gateway multihaz precodificación. Finalmente, consideramos un fenómeno importante que necesita actualmente para ser tratados en sistemas multihaz: el hecho de que una sola palabra de código se incrusta la información de múltiples usuarios en cada viga. Esto conduce a la denominada modelo de multidifusión multigrupo difícil, cuya optimización requiere operaciones computacionalmente complejos. En tal escenario, el diseño de precodificación en el enlace directo será dirigido.

Full textLes solucions actuals per a compartir dades no són compatibles per a contexts multi-proveïdor. Tradicionalment, els proveïdors de dades les ofereixen via Data Services hermètics amb APIs molt restringides. De manera que els consumidors per una banda es veuen obligats a adaptar les seves aplicacions a la funcionalitat actual, i d'altra banda veuen com les possibilitats de contribuir amb el seu propi know-how queden molt limitades. A nivell de gestió, els sistemes gestors de bases de dades que sostenen aquests Data Services estan dissenyats per a escenaris amb un únic proveïdor, forçant una administració centralitzada que recau en el rol de l'administrador de la base de dades o DBA. El DBA defineix les restriccions d'integritat necessàries i especifica el model extern de les dades a oferir als usuaris. El problema és que en un entorn multi-proveïdor, no podem assumir l'existència d'un únic administrador central que s'ocupi de les dades de tothom. A nivell de processament, el fet de tenir diferents representacions de les dades segons es processin a nivell aplicació, de servei, o de base de dades; fa que les aplicacions hagin de dedicar d'entre un 20 i un 50% del codi a realitzar les transformacions corresponents. Això té un impacte negatiu tan a nivell de productivitat dels programadors, com a nivell de rendiment global en aplicacions que fa un ús intensiu de les dades. Tenint en compte aquestes dificultats, aquesta tesi proposa tres nous mecanismes per fer possible que un sistema gestor de dades pugui donar suport a entorns multi-proveïdor, on es faciliti la col·laboració amb els consumidors i el desenvolupament d'aplicacions que facin un ús intensiu de les dades. En concret, partint de la descentralització de l'administració de les dades i d'un model de dades orientat a objectes, aquesta tesi contribueix a la comunitat científica amb: 1) un mecanisme per permetre que els consumidors puguin estendre el model extern de les dades i la funcionalitat oferta, sense comprometre les restriccions dels proveïdors. 2) un mecanisme per permetre que cada proveïdor pugui definir les restriccions d'integritat que cregui convenients sobre el model de les dades, i de tal manera que sempre siguin respectades independentment de l'ús que se'n faci i les extensions que hi hagi. 3) la integració d'un model de programació paral·lela amb el model de dades per millorar el rendiment de les aplicacions i la productivitat dels programadors, reduint significativament les transformacions de les dades i el codi necessari per accedir-les. Aquestes contribucions es validen per mitjà del disseny i implementació de dataClay, com a exemple de gestor de dades multi-proveïdor que compleix els requisits definits. A més, en relació a la primera i tercera contribucions, es mostren una serie d'estudis de rendiment que n'avaluen i en demostren la seva viabilitat (la segona contribució és només lògica).

Full textEn esta tesis, pretendemos explorar varios diseños novedosos de nanoestructuras basadas en grafeno, con diversas funcionalidades. Tras presentar brevemente los conceptos fundamentales y los modelos teóricos utilizados en esta tesis en el Capítulo 1, en el Capítulo 2 mostramos la posibilidad de describir la respuesta de nanopartículas plasmónicas (incluyendo efectos de retardo) mediante métodos de simulación semi-analíticos sencillos y sin la necesidad de emplear grandes recursos computacionales. Posteriormente, empleamos estos modelos en el desarrollo de un primer tipo de dispositivo: moduladores ópticos. Añadiendo láminas de grafeno acopladas a diferentes tipos de resonadores ópticos, podemos mejorar la intensidad de la luz en el plano del grafeno, y por lo tanto también su nivel de absorción, la cual puede ser modulada a voluntad mediante el nivel de dopado electrostático del grafeno, como se explora en el Capítulo 3. Los modelos empleados predicen cambios en la transmisión del orden de la unidad, produciendo así la absorción total por parte del dispositivo de la luz incidente. En esta clase de dispositivos, así como en todos los dispositivos nanofotónicos, la producción de calor mediante la absorción de la luz puede degradar severamente su rendimiento, así como limitar su vida útil, lo que hace que la manipulación de la fuente y el flujo de calor en la nanoescala sea una componente crucial del desarrollo. En el Capítulo 4, empleamos las extraordinarias propiedades ópticas y térmicas del grafeno para mostrar que puede tener lugar una transferencia ultrarrápida de calor radiativo entre nanoestructuras vecinas, facilitada por los plasmones del grafeno, los cuales a su vez experimentan efectos fototérmicos asociados con este proceso de disipación. Nuestros hallazgos revelan un nuevo régimen para la energía térmica a nanoescala, en la que la transferencia de calor radiativa se convierte en el mecanismo principal de disipación de calor. Además de los daños causados por la deposición de calor, la energía térmica generada puede ser de hecho usada como herramienta para la fotodetección: tal es el caso, por ejemplo, de los bolómetros de silicona, empleados para la fotodetección por infrarrojos. En el Capítulo 5, mostramos que la excitación de un solo plasmón en una unión de grafeno altera radicalmente sus propiedades eléctricas debido al calentamiento óptico. Este hecho puede ser empleado para demostrar el funcionamiento eficaz de un fotodetector en la región media de los infrarrojos a temperatura ambiente, tanto a través de predicciones teóricas como su corroboración experimental (en colaboración con el grupo del Prof. Fengnian Xia de la Universidad de Yale). Finalmente, en el Capítulo 6, mostramos a través de simulaciones mecánico-cuánticas (introducidas en el Capítulo 1), que tanto la respuesta óptica lineal como la no lineal de las nanoestructuras de grafeno pueden ser dramáticamente alteradas por la presencia de una sola molécula vecina que transporte o bien una carga elemental o un dipolo permanente. En base a estos resultados, afirmamos que las estructuras de grafeno nanoscópicas podrían ser una plataforma eficiente para detectar moléculas portadoras de carga o dipolos.

Full textThe need for AAA protocols in the world are increasing and todays most common protocols RADIUS and TACACS+, cannot cope with the fast advances in fields benefiting from the use of AAA protocols. This is why IETF has developed the protocol Diameter as a next generations AAA protocol. The objective of this thesis is to account for the work conducted with Diameter as well as to determine if it is going to become the major AAA protocol of the next generation. In this thesis, I describe what Diameter is, its close integration with the Mobile IP protocol and its other uses. As Diameter is based on RADIUS an introduction to AAA and RADIUS is given in order to comprehend where we are today and where we are going as well as to why. I also compare today’s protocols (RADIUS, TACACS+, Kerberos and COPS) against the next generations AAA protocol Diameter. From this comparison, the Mobile IP integration capabilities and an analysis of the support of the Diameter protocol I have come to the conclusion that Diameter is going to become the major AAA protocol of the next generation.

The Salvation Army thrift stores are retail entities in the center of neighborhoods which collect and resell used objects. Although historically dear to many, it seems that the physical condition, market visibility, and social perception of these stores do not always match the importance of the service they provide. The potential of that recycling network, already in place internationally, seems enormous in a context of economic crisis and rising environmental concerns. I would like to create a new Salvation Army thrift store for the years to come, and propose to redesign the closest one at hand as a case study. Among my ideas for this undertaking: - make the thrift store a pleasant and rich experiential space - add to the function of salvaging, the functions of cleaning and repairing - turn what used to be a store into a store ++, with small crafts attached (tailors, shoe repair, laundromats and dry cleaners, wood and metal workers) which would provide next door services and be a tool for social reinsertion (professional training for the unemployed) - open the market segment to all social categories - have the buildings themselves be an example of a new type of reuse/recycling.

Full textIdag förskrivs rollator av Landstingen samt kommuner, men inom en snar framtid kan marknaden för retail komma att öka radikalt i samband med att kraven från kunden ökar. Det råder en allt mer ökad medvetenhet och en vilja hos kunden att få en produkt som hänger med i samhällets utveckling, vilket dagens rollatorer inte gör. Då möjligheten och tillgängligheten till all sorts information ökar bidrar detta till att framtida generationer kommer att ställa högre krav på produkten än vad som ställs idag. Detta innebär att det just nu håller på att bildas ett glapp på marknaden och att en ny produkt som hänger med teknikens framfart måste utvecklas. Målet var att komma fram till ett konceptförslag, som sedan skulle kunna tas vidare till nästa fas för vidareutveckling och produktion. Arbetet syftar även till att bringa klarhet i kundkraven hos nästa generation och problem kring dagens förskrivningar, samt klarlägga värderingar som råder kring produkten. Arbetet har utgått från en metod som heter Pretzel, som är en process för degenerering och produktutveckling framtagen av företaget Scalae. Kartläggningen av värderingarna och samhällets syn på rollatorn, visar på problem som resulterar i att många rollatorer utskrivs försent. Detta innebär att onödiga personskador hinner uppkomma som i sin tur kostar samhället mycket pengar i jämförelse med förskrivningskostnaden av en rollator. Problemen ligger djup rotade i värderingar som går hand i hand men den långsamma utvecklingen av rollatorer. Den tekniska utvecklingen går idag oerhört fort och nya produkter lanseras på marknaden med rasande fart. Att till exempel ha samma mobiltelefonmodell som sin mamma är i dagens samhälle högst orimligt, men när det gäller rollatorer kan du till och med få samma modell som din farmor hade.Konceptet är inspirerat av existerande produkter på marknaden som är socialt accepterande, fast i andra sammanhang, så som barnvagnar och klassiska Dramaten-väskan. Genom att använda formspråk och funktioner som användaren redan är bekant med är målet acceptansprocessen för användaren kan kortas ner så att hjälpmedlet kan börja användas i tid och på så sätt minska risken för fallskador. Det slutliga konceptet kallas för Dramatorn och är en hybrid mellan en dramatenväska och en rollator.

Full textWhite Sands Missile Range (WSMR) is developing a new transportable telemetry system that consolidates various telemetry data collection functions currently being performed by separate instrumentation. The new system will provide higher data rate handling capability, reduced labor requirements, and more efficient operations support which will result in a reduction of mission support costs. Seven new systems are planned for procurement through Requirements Contracts. They will replace current mobile systems which are over 25 years old on a one-on-one basis. Regulation allows for a sixty-five percent overage on the contract and WSMR plans to make this contract available for use by other Major Range Test Facility Bases (MRTFBs). Separate line items in the contracts make it possible to vary the design to meet a specific system configuration. This paper describes both current and replacement mobile telemetry system

Full textThis paper describes the changes in signal conditioning techniques used on flight test programs in recent years. Improved sensors require improved signal conditioning. Advanced distributed data acquisition systems, used on major flight test programs, move the signal conditioning closer to the sensor for improved performance and reduced wiring throughout the vehicle. These distributed systems use digital communication between the master controller and the remote conditioning units for improved accuracy and noise immunity. This requires sample- and-hold amplifiers, analog-to-digital converters, and serial encoder/decoders to be located at the signal conditioning location. The changes in signal conditioning designs are driven by the sensors, the architecture of the data acquisition systems, and by vehicle designs (smaller aircraft, smaller missiles, composite structures, and hypervelocity vehicles). A look at the signal conditioning technology employed in many of these systems as well as what is anticipated in the future is described in this paper.

Full textDue to the historical development of South African cities during the early 1900s, a great deal of the South African city now comprises of suburban environments. For all its negative portrayal in architectural discourse, there are also significant positive attributes to suburbia. Currently, the South African suburban condition is densifying. This process of densification means that the suburban form as we have known it is currently changing quite rapidly. We now sit in a position where we can either allow these suburban environments to evolve without architectural consideration which may exacerbate the negative aspects of suburbia, whilst undermining its positives. Alternatively, we can unpack the characteristics of suburbia with the intent of offering architectural solutions which may facilitate responsible densification whilst preserving the positives and addressing the negatives. Because such significant portions of our cities are sub urban in character - and are experiencing pressures to densify, this project asks whether it is possible to visualise a positive, healthy and responsible future suburban form. In the words of Robert Crumb, we ask ‘What’s Next?” This project proposes a simple and relatively quickly implementable architectural solution to the densification of the suburban township of Brooklyn in Pretoria over the next two to three decades. The project attempts to use the opportunity (presented by the city’s need to densify) to reconfigure the future suburban form for the better. Brooklyn is used as a casestudy through which the positive and negative characteristics of suburban environments are unpacked - and possible solutions for its future densification are proposed. Naturally, suburban environments differ from township to township. As such, this project does not look for an all-encompassing solution to the future of suburbia. Rather, it attempts to produce a critical, detailed, site-specific solution to a single suburban township. This approach acknowledges the importance of the architect in the creation of successful cities, but will hopefully stimulate the creative pursuit of solutions for - and a broader debate over the future of such enormous tracts of our South African cities - suburbia.

Full textUma das mais recentes conquistas na evolução móvel foi o 3G, permitindo o acesso a serviços multimédia com qualidade de serviço assegurada. No entanto, a tecnologia UMTS, tal como definida na sua Release ’99, é apenas capaz de transmitir em modo unicast, sendo manifestamente ineficiente para comunicações multimédia almejando grupos de utilizadores. A tecnologia IMS surge na Release 5 do 3GPP que começou a responder já a algumas necessidades, permitindo comunicações sobre IP oferecendo serviços Internet a qualquer momento e em qualquer lugar sobre tecnologias de comunicação móveis fornecendo pela primeira vez sessões multimédia satisfatórias. A Release 6 por sua vez trouxe a tecnologia MBMS que permite transmissões em broadcast e multicast para redes móveis. O MBMS fornece os serviços de aplicações multimédia que todos estavam à espera, tanto para os utilizadores como para os prestadores de serviços. O operador pode agora fazer uso da tecnologia existente aumentando todo o tipo de benefícios no serviço prestado ao cliente. Com a possível integração destas duas tecnologias passa a ser possível desenvolver serviços assentes em redes convergentes em que os conteúdos são entregues usando tecnologias unicast, multicast ou broadcast. Neste contexto, o principal motivo deste trabalho consiste essencialmente em fazer uso dos recursos da rede terminando com o desperdício dos mesmos e aumentando a eficiência dos serviços através da integração das tecnologias IMS e MBMS. O trabalho realizado começa com o estudo do estado da arte das telecomunicações móveis com referência às tecnologias referidas, seguindo-se a apresentação da possível integração IMS-MBMS e terminando com o projecto de uma plataforma de demonstração que no futuro possa ser uma implementação de serviço multimédia multicast. O objectivo principal é mostrar os benefícios de um serviço que era normalmente executado em unicast relativamente ao modo multicast, fazendo uso da nova convergência de tecnologias IMS e MBMS. Na conclusão do trabalho são referidas as vantagens do uso de portadoras multicast e broadcast, tendo como perspectiva de que este trabalho possa ser um ponto de partida para um novo conjunto de serviços poupando recursos de rede e permitindo uma eficiência considerável em serviços inovadores.
3G is bang up to date in the mobile phone industry. It allows access to multimedia services and gives a guarantee of quality of service. The UMTS technology, defined in 3GPP Release ’99, provides an unicast transmission, but it is completely inefficient when it comes to multimedia group communications. The IMS technology first appeared in Release 5 that has already started to consider the interests of the clients. It provides communications over IP, offering Internet services anytime, anywhere on mobile communication technologies. Also, it offers for the first time satisfactory multimedia sessions. On the other hand, Release 6 gave rise to the MBMS technology that provides broadcast and multicast transmissions for mobile networks. The MBMS provides multimedia applications services that everyone was waiting, including users and service providers. Now the operator makes use of existing technology in order to provide better costumer services. The possible integration of these two technologies will contribute to develop services based on converged networks in which contents are delivered through the unicast, multicast or broadcast technologies. Therefore, the objective of this work is basically to make use of network resources avoiding wastes and improving customer services through the integration of the IMS and the MBMS technologies. The executed work starts with the mobile telecommunications state of the art with reference to the referred technologies, followed by the IMS-MBMS convergence presentation and finishing with the proposal for implementation of a service platform that can be used for a multimedia multicast service. The main point is to show the benefits of a service that has been normally executed in unicast mode over the multicast mode, making use of the new IMS and MBMS technologies integration. To closure the work it is referred the advantages to use multicast and broadcast bearers, with the perspective that this work could be a starting point to a new set of services, saving network resources and allowing for innovate services a considerable efficency.

Full textIn the modern society, communications and digital transactions are becoming the norm rather than the exception. As we allow networked computing devices into our every-day actions, we build a digital lifestyle where networks and devices enrich our interactions. However, as we move our information towards a connected digital environment, privacy becomes extremely important as most of our personal information can be found in the network. This is especially relevant as we design and adopt next generation networks that provide ubiquitous access to services and content, increasing the impact and pervasiveness of existing networks. The environments that provide widespread connectivity and services usually rely on network protocols that have few privacy considerations, compromising user privacy. The presented work focuses on the network aspects of privacy, considering how network protocols threaten user privacy, especially on next generation networks scenarios. We target the identifiers that are present in each network protocol and support its designed function. By studying how the network identifiers can compromise user privacy, we explore how these threats can stem from the identifier itself and from relationships established between several protocol identifiers. Following the study focused on identifiers, we show that privacy in the network can be explored along two dimensions: a vertical dimension that establishes privacy relationships across several layers and protocols, reaching the user, and a horizontal dimension that highlights the threats exposed by individual protocols, usually confined to a single layer. With these concepts, we outline an integrated perspective on privacy in the network, embracing both vertical and horizontal interactions of privacy. This approach enables the discussion of several mechanisms to address privacy threats on individual layers, leading to architectural instantiations focused on user privacy. We also show how the different dimensions of privacy can provide insight into the relationships that exist in a layered network stack, providing a potential path towards designing and implementing future privacy-aware network architectures.
Na sociedade moderna, as comunicações e transacções digitais estão a tornar-se a regra e não a excepção. À medida que permitimos a intromissão de dispositivos electrónicos de rede no nosso quotidiano, vamos construíndo um estilo de vida digital onde redes e dispositivos enrirquecem as nossas interacções. Contudo, ao caminharmos para um ambiente digital em rede, a nossa privacidade vai-se revestindo de maior importãncia, pois a nossa informação pessoal passa a encontrar-se cada vez mais na rede. Isto torna-se particularmente relevante ao adoptarmos redes de próxima geração, que permitem acesso ubíquo a redes, serviços e conteúdos, aumentando o impacte e pervasividade das redes actuais. Os ambientes onde a conectividade e os serviços se tornam uma constante, assentam em protocolos de rede que normalmente contemplam poucas considerações sobre privacidade, comprometendo desta forma o utlizador. O presente trabalho centra-se nos aspectos de privacidade que dizem respeito à rede devido à forma como os protocolos são utilizados nas diferentes camadas, e que resultando em ameaças à privacidade do utilizador. Abordamos especificamente os identificadores presentes nos protocolos de rede, e que são essenciais à sua função. Neste contexto exploramos a possibilidade destes identificadores comprometerem a privacidade do utilizador através da informação neles contida, bem como das relações que podem ser estabelecidas entre identificadores de diferentes protocolos. Após este estudo centrado nos identificadores, mostramos como a privacidade em redes pode ser explorada ao longo de duas dimensões: uma dimensão que acentua as relações verticais de privacidade, cruzando vários protocolos até chegar ao utilizador, e uma dimensão horizontal que destaca as ameaças causadas por cada protocolo, de forma individual, normalmente limitadas a uma única camada. Através destes conceitos, mostramos uma visão integrada de privacidade em redes, abrangendo tanto as interacçoes de privacidade verticais como as horizontais. Esta visão permite discutir vários mecanismos para mitigar ameaças específicas a cada camada de rede, resultando em instânciações arquitecturais orientadas à privacidade do utilizador. Finalmente, mostramos como as diferentes dimensões de privacidade podem fornecer uma visão diferente sobre as relações estabelecidas na pilha protocolar que assenta em camadas, mostrando um caminho possível para o desenvolvimento de futuras arquitecturas de rede com suporte para privacidade.

Full textA logotype and other product marking reveals the identity of a product. AB Sandvik Coromant isan international company with production plants in all continents and with the aim of marking alltheir products with their logotype. When someone sees a tool from AB Sandvik Coromant theyprobably recognize the yellow and red colors of the logotype. A secure process with repeatableresults regarding quality is a corner stone of AB Sandvik Coromant. Today their product markingis done with the technique of pad printing, the use of labels on certain products and also laser formarking other information that is needed. The results of the color printing with pad printing lackin quality and in ensuring a repetitive and safe process.The purpose and aim of the project has been to analyze the current method of marking logotypeand text on AB Sandvik Cormorant’s tools and if possible propose a new solution based oninformation generated within the product development process. The project has been planned withThe Mechanical Design Process by Ullman as a guideline.From a thorough mapping of all available marking methods three methods were chosen to lookfurther into; inkjet, labelling and engraving and color filling. Tools were sent to suppliers in orderto make prototypes displaying the logotype made with different marking techniques. The resultsof the prototypes showed limitations concerning engraving. Inkjet gave results over expectationsbut requires further investigations regarding conditions of implementation. A visual designevaluation and test concerning mechanical properties were made. The mechanical propertiesincluded oil and abrasion resistance of the marked logotypes. The prototypes were not affected bythe oil except for the laminate on the new label design. On the other hand the new label design didwithstand abrasion better than all the prototypes, except for the submerged logotypes that were notaffected at all. The prototypes all received better results compared to existing marking methods.After the tests a brief industrialization were conducted comparing parameters such as productioncost, automation possibilities, variation possibilities and service. Production cost concerningGravure proved to be high whereas Inkjet and New label design had an unchanged production costcompared to the existing marking methods. Based on the results generated throughout the projectour recommendation is to initially implement the New label design as well as Inkjet. The aim hastherefore been achieved and AB Sandvik Coromant would have to investigate the inkjettechnology further and replace the laminate on the labels.
