Abstract:

De nombreux problèmes émanent de la diffusion et l'utilisation des données sur les réseaux sociaux. Il est nécessaire de promouvoir la confiance sur les plateformes sociales, quant au partage et l’utilisation des données. Les données en ligne sont principalement sous forme textuelle, ce qui pose des problèmes aux solutions d'automatisation en raison de la richesse du langage naturel. De plus, l'utilisation des micro-messages comme principal moyen de communication sur les médias sociaux rend le problème beaucoup plus difficile en raison de la rareté des fonctionnalités à analyser par corps de texte. Nos expériences montrent que les solutions d'anonymat des données ne peuvent pas préserver l'anonymat des utilisateurs sans sacrifier la qualité des données. De plus, dans le domaine de la vérification d'auteur, étant donné un ensemble de documents dont l'auteur est connu, nous avons constaté très peu de travaux de recherche travaillant sur les micro-messages. Nous avons également remarqué que l'état de l'art ne prend pas en considération la sémantique des textes, les rendant vulnérables aux attaques par usurpation d'identité. Motivés par ces résultats, nous consacrons cette thèse pour aborder les tâches de (1) identifier les problèmes actuels avec l'anonymat des données utilisateur dans le texte, et fournir une première approche sémantique originale pour résoudre ce problème, (2) étudier la vérification de l'auteur en micro -messages, et développer une nouvelle approche basée sur la sémantique pour résoudre ces défis, et (3) étudier l'effet de l'inclusion de la sémantique dans la gestion des attaques de manipulation, (4) étudier l'effet temporel des données, où les auteurs pourraient avoir changer d'avis au fil du temps. La première partie de la thèse se concentre sur l'anonymat des utilisateurs dans les données textuelles sur les réseaux sociaux, dans le but d'anonymiser les informations personnelles des données des utilisateurs en ligne pour une analyse sécurisée des données sans compromettre la confidentialité des utilisateurs. Nous présentons une première approche basée sur la sémantique, qui peut être personnalisée pour équilibrer la préservation de la qualité des données et la maximisation de l'anonymat de l'utilisateur en fonction de l'application à portée de main. Dans la deuxième partie, nous étudions la vérification d'auteur dans les micro-messages sur les réseaux sociaux. Nous confirmons le manque de recherche en vérification d'auteur sur les micro-messages, et nous montrons que l'état de l'art ne fonctionne pas bien lorsqu'il est appliqué sur des micro-messages. Ensuite, nous présentons une nouvelle approche basée sur la sémantique qui utilise des inclusions de mots et une analyse des sentiments pour collecter l'historique des opinions de l'auteur afin de déterminer l'exactitude de la revendication de paternité et montrer ses performances concurrentielles sur les micro-messages. Nous utilisons ces résultats dans la troisième partie de la thèse pour améliorer encore notre approche. Nous construisons un ensemble de données composé des tweets des 88 influenceurs Twitter les plus suivis. Nous l'utilisons pour montrer que l'état de l'art n'est pas capable de gérer les attaques d'usurpation d'identité, modifiant le message derrière le tweet, tandis que le modèle d'écriture est préservé. D'autre part, puisque notre approche est consciente de la sémantique du texte, elle est capable de détecter les manipulations de texte avec une précision supérieure à 90%. Et dans la quatrième partie de la thèse, nous analysons l'effet temporel des données sur notre approche de vérification d'auteur.Nous étudions l'évolution des opinions des auteurs au fil du temps et comment s'en accommoder dans notre approche. Nous étudions les tendances des sentiments d'un auteur pour un sujet spécifique sur une période de temps et prédisons les fausses allégations de paternité en fonction de la période dans laquelle se situe la revendication
Many Problems surround the spread and use of data on social media. There is a need to promote trust on social platforms, regarding the sharing and consumption of data. Data online is mostly in textual form which poses challenges for automation solutions because of the richness of natural language. In addition, the use of micro-messages as the main means of communication on social media makes the problem much more challenging because of the scarceness of features to analyze per body of text. Our experiments show that data anonymity solutions cannot preserve user anonymity without sacrificing data quality. In addition, in the field of author verification, which is the problem of determining if a body of text was written by a specific person or not, given a set of documents known to be authored by them, we found a lack of research working with micro-messages. We also noticed that the state-of-the-art does not take text semantics into consideration, making them vulnerable to impersonation attacks. Motivated by these findings, we devote this thesis to tackle the tasks of (1) identifying the current problems with user data anonymity in text, and provide an initial novel semantic-based approach to tackle this problem, (2) study author verification in micro-messages and identify the challenges in this field, and develop a novel semantics-based approach to solve these challenges, and (3) study the effect of including semantics in handling manipulation attacks, and the temporal effect of data, where the authors might have changing opinions over time. The first part of the thesis focuses on user anonymity in textual data, with the aim to anonymize personal information from online user data for safe data analysis without compromising users’ privacy. We present an initial novel semantic-based approach, which can be customized to balance between preserving data quality and maximizing user anonymity depending on the application at hand. In the second part, we study author verification in micro-messages on social media. We confirm the lack of research in author verification on micro-messages, and we show that the state-of-the-art, which primarily handles long and medium-sized texts, does not perform well when applied on micro-messages. Then we present a semantics-based novel approach which uses word embeddings and sentiment analysis to collect the author’s opinion history to determine the correctness of the claim of authorship, and show its competitive performance on micro-messages. We use these results in the third part of the thesis to further improve upon our approach. We construct a dataset consisting of the tweets of the 88 most followed twitter influencers. We use it to show that the state-of-the-art is not able to handle impersonation attacks, where the content of a tweet is altered, changing the message behind the tweet, while the writing pattern is preserved. On the other hand, since our approach is aware of the text’s semantics, it is able to detect text manipulations with an accuracy above 90%. And in the fourth part of the thesis, we analyze the temporal effect of data on our approach for author verification. We study the change of authors’ opinions over time, and how to accommodate for that in our approach. We study trends of sentiments of an author per a specific topic over a period of time, and predict false authorship claims depending on what timeframe does the claim of authorship fall in

Abstract:

In the aftermath of the events of 9/11, the U.S. executive branch has repeatedly maintained that its need for action to secure the nation requires a revised interpretation of individual liberties. This study will explore the tensions between the positive ideographs and in response to the negative ideograph in a contemporary United States court ruling. Using Burke’s pentad, and cluster analysis, as well as Brummett’s notion of strategic silence, the study examines how the FISCR substantially changed the interrelationship between the two ideographs. The study concludes that the FISCR situated strengthening national security as the purpose of the case it ruled on, which privileged national security over privacy. Throughout the expansion of security,> the court used silence to justify its decision. This analysis both adds to our understanding of the synchronic relationship between ideographs, and examines how the courts utilize such interplays to reconstitute community.

Abstract:

The growth of the Internet has opened up tremendous opportunities for cooperative computations where the results depend on the private data inputs of distributed participating parties. In most cases, such computations are performed by multiple mutually untrusting parties. This has led the research community into studying methods for performing computation across the Internet securely and efficiently. This thesis investigates security methods in the search for an optimum solution to privacy- preserving distributed statistical computation problems. For this purpose, the nonparametric sign test algorithm is chosen as a case for study to demonstrate our research methodology. Two privacy-preserving protocol suites using data perturbation techniques and cryptographic primitives are designed. The first protocol suite, i.e. the P22NSTP, is based on five novel data perturbation building blocks, i.e. the random probability density function generation protocol (RpdfGP), the data obscuring protocol (DOP), the secure two-party comparison protocol (STCP), the data extraction protocol (DEP) and the permutation reverse protocol (PRP). This protocol suite enables two parties to efficiently and securely perform the sign test computation without the use of a third party. The second protocol suite, i.e. the P22NSTC, uses an additively homomorphic encryption scheme and two novel building blocks, i.e. the data separation protocol (DSP) and data randomization protocol (DRP). With some assistance from an on-line STTP, this protocol suite provides an alternative solution for two parties to achieve a secure privacy-preserving nonparametric sign test computation. These two protocol suites have been implemented using MATLAB software. Their implementations are evaluated and compared against the sign test computation algorithm on an ideal trusted third party model (TTP-NST) in terms of security, computation and communication overheads and protocol execution times. By managing the level of noise data item addition, the P22NSTP can achieve specific levels of privacy protection to fit particular computation scenarios. Alternatively, the P22NSTC provides a more secure solution than the P22NSTP by employing an on-line STTP. The level of privacy protection relies on the use of an additively homomorphic encryption scheme, DSP and DRP. A four-phase privacy-preserving transformation methodology has also been demonstrated; it includes data privacy definition, statistical algorithm decomposition, solution design and solution implementation.

Full text

Abstract:

Grounded in a multi-faceted theoretical framework that examines the dynamic interaction between the public and the private spheres of Elizabethan everyday life, this thesis aims to trace how the concept of privacy and its associated terms were developed, constructed, evoked, and configured both in Shakespearean drama and in other illustrative early modern texts. The author suggests that Shakespeare's configuration of space results from a combination of the conditions of representation - empty stages - metaphorical language, technical dramatic devices, and textual markers that create a sense of space in the texts and onstage. The research also explores the place and space of early modern women and of Shakespeare's female characters in terms of their relation to the private space; that is to say, their construction of 'self-in-relation-to-space', as well as their movements and activities within and outside the private's real or imagined boundaries, thus their ability to fashion the public sphere from within the private. Rather than analysing the role of women in the plays exclusively from the point of view of opposition between spheres - public man versus private woman - the study wants to question and pose, at the same time, the relevance of approaching Shakespearean texts from a spatial perspective, a choice that may have an impact on the very interpretation of them.

This thesis will develop a basic method to evaluate the overall quality of proposed infrastructure projects for private sector financial investment. INFRATEST is meant to aid both potential private infrastructure developers and public entities, which desire to privatize certain infrastructure projects, in selection of the most appropriate infrastructure projects to benefit from the advantages of free enterprise. INFRATEST is premised on 15 equally-weighted factors which represent the major components that affect overall infrastructure project economic, financial, and technical viability. Associated with each of the 15 factors are indicators which measure the important aspects of their respective factors. There are 31 indicators in all and they are evaluated on a numerical scale of one to ten. Factor scores are determined from indicator value averages. INFRATEST can serve the private developer and the public entity by providing an information base for deciding which privately funded infrastructure development proposals deserve consideration in the capital markets and for deciding which proposed infrastructure projects are to be developed with public or private funds. Application of INFRATEST to two real-world project proposals, the SAVE project and the Northumberland Bridge project, demonstrated the method's ease and universality of application as well as the method's simple and clear conclusions.

Abstract:

Barn och ungas skulder som registrerats hos Kronofogden har under de senaste åren aldrig varit flera. Skolan har ett ansvar att försöka hindra denna oroväckande utveckling. Denna uppsats handlar om privatekonomins förekomst i tre olika läroböcker för samhällskunskap 1A1 på gymnasiet och har som mål att undersöka vilken hjälp dessa böcker ger lärare och elever på gymnasiet. I den senaste läroplanen SKOLFS 2011 har privatekonomi lagts till och är numera ett gymnasiegemensamt ämne som alla elever läser. Genom ett kodschema har jag kunnat identifiera förekomsten av privatekonomin och bestämma kvantiteten av densamma genom räknandet av ord. Undersökningen är tvådelad där den andra delen analyserar innehållet och försöker göra slutsatser genom olika typer av textanalyser. Slutsatsen för undersökningen är att de tre böckerna har olika styrkor och svagheter men framförallt är det språkbruket som skiljer sig åt. Ett lärobokstext bör inte kräva allt för stora förkunskaper eller läsförståelse i en A-kurs. Två av böckerna hanterar detta väl medan den tredje lyckas mindre bra.
The debts of children and teenagers that are registered at the Swedish Enforcement Authority, have in the past few years hit an all-time high. School has a responsibility to try and stop this disturbing development. This essay is about private economy and its existence in three different textbooks for civics 1A1 and the Swedish high school. The goal is to investigate which support these books can give teachers and students. Private economy is a recent addition to the Swedish teaching program 2011 and is now read by all high school students. I have been able to identify the existence of private economy in textbooks by creating a code schedule. This way I have been able to decide the quantitative by simply counting words. The review is categorical in two parts where the second part illuminating the content and tries to make conclusions by different types of text analyses. The conclusion of this essay is that the books have its differences, both strengths and weaknesses. It is mostly the use of language that differs. A textbook in civics does not demand great text understanding. Two of the books handle this well, while the third one does not.

Abstract:

Internet of things is getting more and more popular in healthcare as it comes with benefits that help with efficiency in saving lives and reduce its cost, but it also presents a new attack vector for an attacker to steal or manipulate information sent between them. This report will focus on three properties in the definition of security, confidentiality, integrity and access control. The report will look into what challenges there is in healthcare IoT today through a literature review and from those challenges look into what could minimise these challenges before a device gets into production. The report found that the lack of standardisation has lead to errors that could be easily prevented by following a guideline of tests as those from the European Union Agency for Network and Information Security, or by running a penetration test with the tools brought up in the report on the device to see what vulnerabilities are present.

Abstract:

In diesem Buch geht es um ein Phänomen, das als konstantes Element in der Geschichte des Christentums bezeichnet werden kann: Neuoffenbarungen. Denn der Kanonisierung der Bibel und dem kritischen Blick der kirchlichen Orthodoxie zum Trotz gab und gibt es immer wieder Menschen, die behaupten, dass sich ihnen Gottvater, Christus, der Heilige Geist oder andere Wesenheiten (Maria, Engel, Verstorbene) offenbart haben. Religionswissenschaftler haben das Thema bislang weitgehend ignoriert. Sie haben den Bereich des Christentums den Theologen überlassen und sich allenfalls mit frei flottierender Esoterik befasst. Theologen neigen ihrerseits dazu, Neuoffenbarungen apologetisch zu bekämpfen. Die vorliegende Untersuchung leistet daher einen wichtigen Beitrag zur religionswissenschaftlichen Erforschung des Themas. Im ersten Teil des Buches wird der Begriff „Neuoffenbarung“ aus verschiedenen religionswissenschaftlichen Perspektiven betrachtet. Zunächst wird untersucht, was die christliche Theologie unter „Offenbarung“ versteht. Danach werden die verschiedenen Termini analysiert, die für das Feld der außer- und nachbiblischen Offenbarungen kursieren (Neuoffenbarung, Privatoffenbarung, Channeling, Spiritismus, Prophetie u. v. m.). Anschließend werden jene Argumente referiert, die von Neuoffenbarungsanhängern bzw. kirchlichen Apologeten ins Feld geführt werden, um die Legitimität von Neuoffenbarungen zu behaupten bzw. zu bestreiten. Dass Neuoffenbarungen gar nicht so neu sind, zeigt ein religionshistorischer Überblick. Denn der Anspruch, besondere Offenbarungen empfangen zu haben, lässt sich in jeder Epoche des Christentums nachweisen. Nachdem einige Exponenten des prophetischen Charismas als ideengeschichtliche Vorläufer und Geistesverwandte der modernen Neuoffenbarungen vorgestellt wurden, werden diese schließlich selbst in den Fokus genommen. Das disparate Feld der Neuoffenbarungsträger des 19. und 20. Jahrhunderts wird anhand exemplarischer Gestalten in einer Typologie geordnet dargestellt. Um den Zitationszirkel zu durchbrechen, der sich offensichtlich im Diskurs etabliert hat, werden darin auch bislang weniger bekannte Neuoffenbarer vorgestellt. In einer Art Tiefenbohrung werden diese religionsphilosophischen, semantischen, historischen und systematischen Zugänge im zweiten Teil an der mexikanischen Neuoffenbarung „Das Buch des Wahren Lebens“ exemplifiziert. Die analysierende Darstellung beschränkt sich jedoch nicht auf ein isoliertes Objekt, sondern dies wird in einen komparatistischen Kontext gestellt: Zentrale Topoi des „Buches des Wahren Lebens“ (Christologie, Reinkarnationslehre, Kirchenkritik u. v. m.) werden zum einen in einer Synopse mit anderen Neuoffenbarungen dargestellt und zum anderen an der orthodoxen Theologie gespiegelt. Damit wird eine doppelte Differenz gezeigt: die Nähe/Ferne zu ähnlichen Phänomenen und die Nähe/Ferne zum kirchlichen Christentum.
This book deals with a phenonmen that counts as a constant feature in the history of Christianity: New Revelations. Despite the canonization of the Bible and despite the critical look of the Church, there are and always have been people who claim that they have received a revelation by God, Christ, the Holy Spirit or other beings (such as Mary, angels or spirits). Scientists of religion have largely ignored this topic up to now. They have relinquished Christianity to theologians and have at best dealed with free-floating esotericism, while theologians on their part tend to fight New Revelations apologetically. The present study, however, sets out to investigate New Revelations from a Religious Studies perspective and will therefore address this neglect. In the first part of the book, different perspectives common in Religious Studies are applied to the investigation of the notion “revelation“. After first having outlined Christian theology’s understanding of revelation, different terms are being analysed, which are in use for post-Biblical revelations (such as New Revelation, Private Revelation, Channeling, Spiritism, Prophecy and more). This is followed by the presentation of arguments against and in favour of the legitimacy of New Revelations as they are being urged by adherents of New Revelations on the one hand and Clerical apologetics on the other hand. A historical survey then demonstrates that New Revelations are in fact not new at all. The claim of people, who are supposed to have received a special revelation, can be found at all times in Christian history. After having presented some exponents of the prophetic charisma as spiritual soulmates and precedesors of the modern New Revelations, those texts themselves become the focus of attention. With the help of a typology, the disparate array of recipients of revelation in the 19th and 20th century is being outlined based on several exemplary figures. To break through a circle of quotation, which has apparently established in the discourse, the typology also contains some New Revelationists who are yet relatively unknown. Based on the Mexican New Revelation “The Book of the True Life“, the second part of the book exemplifies these religio-philosophical, semantic, historical and systematical approaches. This analysis, however, is not limited to an isolated object but it is put into a comparative context: central topics of “The Book of the True Life“ (Christology, Doctrine of Reincarnation, Church criticism and many more) are presented in a synopsis with other New Revelations, as well as mirrored at orthodox theology. With this, a twofold difference is being demonstrated: the closeness/distance to similar phenomena and the closeness/distance to clerical Christianity.

Abstract:

The empirical paper studies the relationship between property value and hedonic attributes. To indentify the determinant characteristics the influent the private real estate price, their degrees of significance and help with the valuation procedure, 8870 private residential property transactions with caveats lodged across country are selected from Urban Redevelopment Authority of Singapore. 40 models are tested and RMSE, R-Square, Adjusted R-Square, F-Value tests are performed to discover the overall fitness of the models. Breusch-Pagan F-Test is performed to test the existence of heteroskedasticity and VIF test to check multicolinearity. Z score is performed to check the spatial autocorrelation. Three founding are discovered. Firstly, size, age, floor level, population density level, latitude and construction status are core attributes resulting from the regression. Secondly, new district zones classified by functions are detected instead of 28 administrative districts. Thirdly, government policies and local customs (Feng Shui) are proven to be determinant variables as well. Two suggestions are given to regulate the market in the end of this article.

Full text

Abstract:

This study modified the Ramanujam and Venkatraman (1987) questionnaire that was used to develop their model of planning system dimensions and planning effectiveness, and tested the model on a sample of private social service agencies. The criterion measures were level of planning sophistication, agency size, perceived environmental uncertainty, and relative competitive position. The sample was randomly drawn from private social service agencies which were members of the Community Council of Greater Dallas. Telephone interviews with fifty executive directors were conducted by a trained, impartial interviewer. Stepwise discriminant analysis was used to predict group membership between informal and formal planners. Of the nine dimensions in the model, three dimensions correctly classified 84 percent of the sample. The three dimensions were fulfillment of planning objectives, use of decision making techniques, and lack of resistance to planning. The level of perceived environmental uncertainty was another criterion set. Directors who perceived high uncertainty paid more attention to the external environment, used more decision making techniques, and relied on functional specialists when planning. Large and small agencies were classified by their annual budgets. Stepwise discriminant analysis using the planning system dimensions failed to reject the null hypothesis. Agencies reporting strong relative competitive positions placed greater emphasis on seeking information for planning from external sources. These agencies also reported less resistance for planning within their organizations, fulfillment of more planning objectives, and a flexible planning system. The discriminant analysis correctly classifed 74 percent of the sample. Finally, the study provided some baseline information on the use of planning techniques by private social service agencies. Just over half of the sample reported having written strategic plans covering at least three years.

O contexto globalizado do mundo atual proporcionou a criação de diversas Redes de interação corporativa. O surgimento do Direito Administrativo Global trouxe um novo desafio às relações internacionais e os modelos clássicos do Direito Internacional Público. A este espeque, temos a criação de modelos de gestão corporativa capazes de se sobrepor aos ordenamentos jurídicos dos Estados, formalizando a criação de um conjunto normativo capaz de regular as atividades empresariais de maneira eficaz e ágil. Ainda nestes termos, temos a Responsabilidade Social das Empresas, caracterizada pelos códigos de conduta e regras internacionais de certificação, que motivam as empresas transnacionais a atuar em atenção aos direitos e garantias fundamentais. Entretanto, somente os mecanismos do Direito Administrativo Global podem exigir uma conduta ilibada através da Regulação Privada Transnacional.

Abstract:

Bakgrund: En kund köper inte varor och tjänster som inte skapar något värde, vilket är något företagen på marknaden måste ta hänsyn till. Utöver det är företagens mål att nå finansiella samt icke-finansiella vinningar från sin produkt. Det är stor konkurrens på marknaden vilket innebär att konsumenten kan välja och vraka något som företagen måste anpassa sig till. I tjänstesektorn är det kunskap som är den viktigaste faktorn för att locka till sig kunder och är på så sätt något tjänsteföretagen ständigt måste arbeta med om de skall överleva på marknaden. För att undersöka detta kommer företagens syn på värdeskapande, kontinuerligt lärande och de egna resurserna studeras i uppsatsen. Syfte: Att undersöka hur tjänsteföretag arbetar med värdeskapande, kontinuerligt lärande samt dess nedlagda resurser inom ramen för internt utvecklingsarbete. Vidare är syftet att jämföra tjänsteföretagens mognadsgrader med varandra för att därigenom se vilka skillnader samt var potential till förbättring finns. Metod: Uppsatsen grundar sig i den kvalitativa ansatsen med ett heremeneutiskt förhållningssätt. Den sekundärdata som samlades in var genom vetenskapliga artiklar, internetkällor och böcker. Fyra företag och fem personer deltog i uppsatsen vilka intervjuades genom en semi-strukturerad intervjuguide. Datainsamlingen analyserades med hjälp av ett organisatoriskt IQ-test. Resultat och slutsats: Företagen har en liknande grundsyn i sättet de tänker på värdeskapande och kontinuerligt lärande. Dock visar empirin att företagen skildje sig i konflikthanteringen samt att några av företagen hade svårigheter att förändra sig på lokal nivå eftersom de agerade på en global marknad. För att uppnå ett värdeskapande och kontinuerligt lärande lägger samtliga företag ner mycket resurser för att erbjuda en tjänst som möter kundens behov och krav. Hur mognadsgraden för värdeskapande och kontinuerligt lärande ser ut skiljer sig mellan företagen eftersom företagen var bra på olika saker. Det är även inom dessa områden potential till förbättring finns. Uppsatsens bidrag: I sin helhet ger uppsatsen en ökad kunskap om hur tjänsteföretag i den privata tjänstesektorn arbetar med värdeskapande och kontinuerligt lärande. Därutöver bidrar uppsatsen med ytterligare kunskap inom vilka områden tjänsteföretagen utmärker sig, deras mognadsgrad i värdeskapande och kontinuerligt lärande samt var det finns potential till förbättring.
Background: Customer do not intend to purchase a product or service that does not provide them with value and this is something that companies have to consider. At the same time companies aim to achieve financial or non-financial profits by selling their products or services. The market is very competitive and ultimately it is the consumers who have the power to pick and choose whatever alternative that fits them best. Hence, this is something companies have to take into consideration. The private sector provides services rather than products and it is this which is used to attract customers and therefore something companies continually have to work with in order to survive in the market. In order to investigate this, different companies’ view of value creation, continual learning and resources have been studied. Aim: To investigate how service companies work with value creation, continual learning and utilized resources (within the range of internal development work). The aim is also to compare company’s level of maturity and suggest where improvements can be made. Methodology: The study is qualitative with a hermeneutic approach. Data were collected from scientific articles, internet sources and books. Four companies and five persons in total participated in the study and were interviewed using a semi-structured interview form. The data was later analyzed with the help of an organizational IQ-test. Results and conclusion: Companies often have a similar ethos in the way they think about value creation and continuous learning. However, the empirical data shows that companies differ in regard to conflict management, as well as some of the companies having difficulties in making changes at the local level because they act in a global marked. In order to achieve value creation and continuous learning all the companies use a great deal of resources to meet the needs and demands from customers. However, the maturity level of value creation and continuous learning look different between various companies because the companies are good at different activities. It is in these areas there lies the potential for improvement. Contribution of the thesis: It provides increased knowledge in how the private service sector works with value creation and continual learning. It also provides further knowledge of how the service sector excels, its maturity grade in value creation and continual learning, and how they can improve.

Abstract:

Between 1818 and 1824, radical printer and publisher Richard Carlile made a determined effort to disseminate copies of Thomas Paine's banned text The Age of Reason in England. Despite strict censorship laws and harsh legal penalties used to curtail previous publishers of this title, Carlile employed a number of creative techniques that kept Paine's deistic writings in print and in circulation during the Regency period. These included republishing public domain court documents when he was charged with seditious libel and reading The Age of Reason in its entirety into testimony during his trial, making it part of the public record. Copied from trial transcripts and reprinted in cheap pamphlet form, Carlile's editions of The Age of Reason would sell an impressive 20,000 copies in these formats. He managed to provide wide-scale access to a work that had been suppressed by the British government since its original publication in 1794. My paper argues that Carlile's approach to subverting Regency-era censorship of The Age of Reason provided an early test for the recognition of the public domain in British law. Instead of continuing to suppress this text, the British government acknowledged the public's right to read the text in this format, allowing Carlile to use his own court documents to continue its publication. This event paved the way for recognition of the public ownership of texts and access to public records in nineteenth-century British print culture.

Abstract:

The Texas Open Beaches Act states that the public beach extends from the water up to the line of vegetation. Once a privately-owned property is submerged, it transfers into state ownership. Because of severe erosion and the shifting nature of vegetation, the Village of Surfside has lost several rows of houses and streets and, currently, over thirty houses are located on the public beach obstructing public access in violation of the Texas Open Beaches Act. The extreme erosion in this small village on the Texas Gulf Coast puts homeowners, property owners, legislators, and beachgoers in difficult positions and many are at odds with one another. The documentary film is structured around rental property owner Russell Clinton, environmentalists Ellis Pickett and Jeff Hooton, and former State Senator A.R. "Babe" Schwartz.

Diagnosis of malaria is important in order to ensure early and effective treatment, to facilitate public health surveillance, and to prevent drug resistance. Rapid diagnostic tests (RDTs) are an important tool in resource-constrained settings, as they do not rely on costly lab equipment and specially trained personnel. In Uganda's private sector clinics and drug shops, which is where the majority of patients first seek care, diagnosis of malaria is often presumptive and patients receive neither RDT nor microscopy. Several studies have focused on the patient perspective (e.g. willingness to pay and willingness to be tested) but much less is understood about the supplier perspective (e.g. willingness to stock). This study aimed to understand the preferences and priorities of agents across the malaria RDT supply chain in Uganda on stocking the devices using multi-criteria decision analysis. This methodology was adapted to be relevant and understandable for agents in Uganda so that it was possible to analyze business decisions incorporating a multiplicity of attributes such as selling price, purchase cost, sales volume, complexity of regulations, waste management, and training available. Data surveys and semistructured interviews were collected from 28 private sector retailers (i.e., shopkeepers, pharmacists, clinic managers), two first line buyers, and three distributors. Analysis of the data resulted in the construction of value functions for all agents, the relative weights (therefore the tradeoffs) among decision criteria, and the calculation of an overall value for the decision about whether or not to stock RDTs for the different supply chain agents. Results indicate that the best option for one level of the supply chain is not necessarily the best for another. A discussion offers insights on how to align value across the supply chain, which is important for facilitating public health interventions.

Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior
Os diários de escrita íntima constituem tipo de texto do domínio confessional. Apresentam narrativas pessoais com características específicas ao gênero, como datação, marcas de subjetividade, escrita informal e coloquialidade. Durante muitos anos, eram escritos em cadernos e guardados a sete chaves por seus autores para que não fossem lidos por outras pessoas. Por volta dos anos 80, surgiram as agendas de adolescentes. Aproveitando o modelo pré-definido industrialmente, as agendas eram preenchidas dia a dia, como um diário, mas com a novidade do acréscimo de elementos semióticos, como fotos, papéis de bala, recortes de revistas, entre outros. Além disso, traziam como diferencial a presença de um leitor participativo: os textos eram compartilhados com amigos, e bilhetes e comentários eram escritos nas páginas das agendas. Com o advento da Internet, o diário e a agenda se fundem no blog que aproveita os recursos do suporte virtual para tornar o gênero interativo, hipertextual e multimídia, acentuando o processo de leitura e de escrita nos jovens produtores de blogs. Paralelamente, a escrita se torna grande ferramenta de comunicação no ambiente virtual, adquirindo características peculiares em função da rapidez na comunicação e da economia de digitação. A partir da teoria de Bakthin sobre gêneros do discurso e do conceito de gêneros digitais de Marcuschi, a pesquisa apresenta como objeto perceber e elencar categorias pertinentes aos gêneros diário e blog para analisá-las e compará-las, na intenção de mapear um possível percurso dos diários aos blogs de adolescentes, discutindo o contraste público-privado na escrita íntima, bem como suas principais marcas linguísticas, percebendo vantagens e desvantagens de sua utilização como ferramenta auxiliar no processo de aprendizagem da escrita e da leitura de Língua Portuguesa. A pesquisa foi motivada pela discussão de que a escrita digital pode prejudicar o desenvolvimento da produção textual de jovens em formação, o que não se confirmou, visto que a estrutura sintática da língua se mantém, e que a variação acontece apenas no nível vocabular, não interferindo na comunicação. Os resultados apontam para a utilização de blogs na educação como complementação do material pedagógico e como incentivo à leitura, à escrita, à construção da argumentação e do posicionamento crítico, aproximando a escola da vida cotidiana dos estudantes
Intimate writing diaries represent a text of a confessional nature. They show personal narratives with specific characteristics of the genre, with dates, subjective marks, informal writing and colloquialism. For years they were written in notebooks and locked up and hidden by the authors so no one else would read them. Around the 80s, the adolescent planners came out. Using an industrially predefined model, the planners were filled out every day as a diary, but included new semiotic elements, such as photos, candy wraps, magazine clips, among others. They also differed in the presence of a participative reader: the texts were shared with friends, and notes and comments were written in the planner pages. With the arrival of the Internet, the diary and planner merged into the blog, which uses virtual resources to become an interactive, hypertext, and multimedia genre, emphasizing the reading and writing process for young blog producers. At the same time, writing is the major communication tool in the virtual environment, acquiring peculiar characteristics due to a faster communication and less typing. According to Bakthins theory on the discourse genres and Marcuschis digital genre concept, the purpose of this study is to perceive and bring out categories inherent to the diary and blog genres to analyze and compare them with the purpose of mapping a potential route for planners and blogs of teenagers, discussing the public-private contrast in intimate writing as well as their main linguistic features, noticing the advantages and disadvantages of their use as an auxiliary tool in the learning process of writing and reading in the Portuguese language. The study was motivated by the debate that digital writing can harm the development of text production of young adults, which was not observed, since the syntax structure is maintained and the variation occurs in the vocabulary, which doesnt interfere with communication. The results point at the use of blogs in education as a supplement to the learning material and as an incentive to reading, writing, building critical argumentation and standpoint, bringing the students closer to the daily school of life

Abstract:

La réduction de la mortalité maternelle et infantile est universellement acceptée comme un objectif du millénaire pour le développement. L'aide étrangère est un des moyens utilisés pour l'atteindre. Cependant, malgré les succès, à l'échelle microéconomique, de certains programmes de santé financés par les aides étrangères, l'efficacité globale de ces aides demeure inconnue. Plusieurs travaux ont traité de l'efficacité de l'aides sur la croissance économique, mais peu d'entre eux concernent le secteur de la santé. Le but de cette thèse, est précisément d'évaluer l'efficacité des aides étrangères sur des indicateurs de santé à l'échelle macroéconomique. On va essayer d'explorer l'impact des aides étrangères octroyées par des bailleurs privés et publics sur l'état de santé telle que la mortalité infantile, maternelle et des adultes dans les pays en développement. La thèse examine l'affectation des aides étrangères au secteur de la santé, à travers trois documents de travail à soumettre à publication
The reduction of child and maternal mortality is universally accepted as a millennium development goal (MDG). Foreign aid for health is one of the means implemented to reach it. However, even if many successes of health aid activities have been underlined at the microeconomic level, the effectiveness of health aid in general remains unknown. In spite of many macroeconomic works on aid effectiveness on economic growth, only little deals with its effectiveness in health. The purpose of this thesis is precisely to assess the effectiveness of foreign aid in improving health measurements, at the macroeconomic level. I tried to explore the impact of health aid disbursed by the donors through the government and private sector on health outcomes like child, maternal and adult mortality rates in developing economies. The thesis examines the issue of foreign aid earmarked for health sector using a three-paper format. The three chapters of this thesis can be read independently

Abstract:

This thesis disserts the art. 2467 of the Civil Code and analyses its reception into the Italian legal system, with peculiar emphasis on the financing of the shareholders within a company. Its impact and relevance are then compared to analogous rules of other Countries, such as the North American, the German, the Spanish, the Portuguese and the French ones. At the end, an evaluation of the signs of anomaly ex art. 2467 c.c. through solvency tests is proposed. The major achievement of this thesis, to the Author's point of view, is that the italian rule is perfectible and might achieve different connotations and interpretations on the basis of the foreign examined legal systems.

Abstract:

Introdução O câncer é uma doença crônica que ocupa posição de destaque. A adesão, as atitudes e o comportamento dos pacientes têm sido freqüentemente relatadas como um fator determinante para o sucesso da terapia com antineoplásicos orais. Objetivos Caracterizar o perfil de pacientes com terapia antineoplásica via oral, aspectos da doença, atitudes, crenças e percepções frente à doença e tratamento. População e Método Foram estudados 61 pacientes com diagnóstico de câncer sob terapia antineoplásica via oral em um ambulatório de hospital particular da cidade de São Paulo. Os instrumentos de avaliação usados foram Teste Morisky e Green, Escala de Lócus de Controle da Saúde e um questionário sobre fatores que podem interferir no tratamento medicamentoso. Valores de p<0,05 foram considerados estatisticamente significantes. Resultados Os pacientes estudados eram 64% mulheres, 54,8±15,6 anos, 95% brancos, 74% casados; 80% com ensino superior; 37% com renda entre 5 a 10 salários mínimos; 29% ocupavam atividades administrativas e comerciais; 34% tinham câncer gastrintestinal; 34% dos pacientes faziam uso do medicamento Capecitabina; tempo de doença de 37,1 ± 62,2 meses; tempo de tratamento 14,4 ± 25,1 meses; e tempo de tratamento com antineoplásico oral 8,6 ± 14,8 meses. O Teste Morisky e Green foi positivo em 28% dos pacientes e 25% afirmaram interrupção do tratamento. Na Escala de Lócus de Controle da Saúde os valores do lócus de controle interno (21,7±4,3) e externo-outros poderosos (22,5± 4,1) foram semelhantes e o menor valor foi no domínio externalidade-acaso (16,5±6,0), além de que os pacientes informaram poucas dificuldades que podem influenciar a adesão ao tratamento com antineoplásico oral. Houve as seguintes associações estatisticamente significantes (p<0,05): 1-Pacientes com teste de Morisky e Green positivo tinham maior tempo de tratamento e em relação ao medicamento oral, a positividade ocorreu com dois pacientes em uso de Mercaptopurina e cerca de um quarto em uso de Dexametasona, Talidomida e Hormonioterápicos. 2-Na Escala de Lócus de Controle de Saúde os pacientes que apresentaram maiores índices de internalidade eram do sexo masculino, que não realizaram cirurgia, não faziam massagem, com menor tempo de doença e de tratamento. Os pacientes com maiores índices no domínio de externalidade-outros poderosos interromperam o tratamento. Os pacientes que apresentaram maiores índices de externalidade-acaso faziam uso de antineoplásico oral continuamente e não praticavam rituais religiosos como outras formas de tratamento. 3-O questionário que avaliou aspectos frente ao tratamento mostrou que os pacientes que apresentaram mais dificuldade, tinham mais tempo de tratamento com antineoplásico via oral. Conclusões Os pacientes apresentaram atitudes positivas frente ao tratamento com medicamentos antineoplásicos orais e relataram poucas dificuldades no manejo da terapia
Introduction Cancer is a chronic disease ranked in an outstanding position. Patients compliance, attitudes and behavior have been frequently reported as a determining factor for the success of the therapy with oral antineoplastic drugs. Objectives Characterize oral antineoplastic therapy patients profiles; disease aspects and behavior, beliefs and perceptions with regard to the disease and the treatment. Population and Method Sixty-one patients diagnosed with cancer undergoing oral antineoplastic therapy in the out-patient unit of a private hospital in the city of São Paulo were studied. Assessment instruments applied were Morisky and Green Test, Health Locus of Control Scale and a questionnaire on factors that can interfere in drug treatment. P<0.05 values were considered statistically significant. Results Patients studied were 64% women, 54.8±15.6 years, 95% white, 74% married; 80% university graduated; 37% with monthly income between US$ 817.75 to US$ 1635.50; 29% worked on business and administrative activities, 34% had gastrointestinal cancer; 34% took Capecitabine; length of time of the disease was 37.1 ± 62.2 months; length of time of the treatment 14.4 ± 25.1 months; and length of time of oral antineoplastic therapy 8.6 ± 14.8 months. Morisky and Green Test was found to be positive in 28% of the patients and 25% stated having interrupted the treatment. In the Health Locus of Control (HLC) Scale, the scores of internal HLC (21.7±4.3) and powerful others externally HLC (22.5± 4.1) were similar. The lowest score was observed in the dimension of chance external HLC (16.5±6.0). Besides, patients reported few difficulties that can influence on their compliance with oral antineoplastic treatment. The following statistically significant (p<0.05) associations were observed: 1-Patients showing positive Morisky and Green test were longer under treatment in relation to the oral drug. Positive tests were observed in two patients using Mercaptopurine and in roughly one fourth, using Dexamethasona, Thalidomide and Hormonietherapics. 2-In Health Locus of Control Scale, men who did not undergo surgery, did not use to have a massage and with shorter time of disease and treatment were those who showed higher scores in Internal HLC. Patients with higher scores in the dimension of powerful others external HLC interrupted the treatment. Patients who showed higher scores in the dimension of Chance External HLC used oral antineoplastic drugs continuously and did not took part in religious rituals as other forms of treatment 3-The questionnaire that assessed aspects related to the treatment revealed that patients who showed more difficulties, were being treated with oral antineoplastic drugs for a longer time. Conclusions Patients showed positive attitudes regarding the treatment with oral antineoplastic drugs and reported few difficulties to lead with the therapy

The aim of this research is to study the compositions written by students trying to get into the Administration course of a private university in Curitiba, Paraná. Some of these students will eventually take my courses Personal Development, which is taught in the first semester, and Interpersonal Development, which is taught in the second. Choosing these compositions instead of the ones written by first year undergraduates of the Administration course has to do with my desire to investigate the quality of the texts produced by students who had finished high school in 2007. By doing so we would be able to answer the following question: what kind of text producer has my college been receiving? The answers provided by this research will generate other questions: how can these students be helped? Hasn t the university mistakenly taken for granted that undergraduate students are proficient text writers? Do these students make spelling mistakes? Does their writing lack coherence? What kind of problems are there in these texts in relation to textual cohesion and discourse coherence in terms of the pragmatic context of argumentative/persuasive interaction between writer and reader? This research is grounded on qualitative methodology, for it aims at investigating the argumentative texts written by the students above mentioned. The theoretical approach we will draw upon is the Systemic Functional Linguistics (SFL), by Halliday (1985, 1994, 2004) and his coworkers. SFL sees language as a social process and it develops a methodology which allows a detailed and systematic description of linguistic patterns. The corpus used in this research is made up of 16 compositions whose quality was seen to be good enough for students to be accepted at the Administration course of the private university where I work
O presente estudo tem como objetivo examinar redações de vestibular produzidas por vestibulandos que aspiram ao curso de Administração de uma Faculdade particular sediada na cidade de Curitiba (PR), que futuramente serão meus alunos, na disciplina de Desenvolvimento Pessoal, no primeiro semestre do curso, e Desenvolvimento Interpessoal, no segundo semestre. A escolha das redações de vestibular e não de textos produzidos por alunos do Curso de Administração deveu-se a nossa curiosidade inicial em verificar a qualidade dos textos produzidos por alunos que terminaram o curso médio (2007). Propomos o seguinte questionamento: que tipo de produtor de texto recebe essa faculdade? Diante da realidade que esta pesquisa apontar, o que se deve proporcionar a esses alunos? Não haveria, da parte da faculdade, a tendência a julgar que o aluno universitário já tenha completa proficiência na escrita? Este aluno comente erros ortográficos? Incorre em incoerência, propondo um tema e desenvolvendo outro? Que tipo de falhas esses textos apresentam em termos de coesão textual e coerência discursiva, tendo em vista o contexto pragmático de interação argumentativa/persuasiva entre escritor e leitor? Metodologicamente, esta pesquisa está pautada na metodologia qualitativa, por se tratar de um estudo de textos argumentativos produzidos por alunos. O estudo fundamentou-se basicamente na Linguística Sistêmico-Funcional (LSF), de Halliday (1985, 1994, 2004) e seus colaboradores. A LSF procura desenvolver uma teoria sobre a língua como um processo social e uma metodologia que permita uma descrição detalhada e sistemática dos padrões linguísticos. O corpus desta pesquisa é composto de 16 redações, avaliadas como satisfatórias para fins de permitir o ingresso dos referidos alunos ao curso de Administração de Empresas na faculdade mencionada

Abstract:

It is very probable that VoIP will soon replace the ordinary telephone. Beside all advantages of the digital voice-connection it is linked to the danger of spam on the telephone. A lot of approaches have been developed to solve the problem of VoIP spam. Because some of these solutions are based on access to personal information of its users, a broad discussion about the best and most ethical approach has started.

This thesis analyzes the users’ point of view towards the VoIP spam problem and the extent of users’ willingness to offer private information in order to avoid VoIP spam. It presents results from a qualitative and a quantitative research as well as approaches for a most realistic- and most promising VoIP solution. These new approaches are based on the results of the research.

The main points of the results showed that users were not willing to offer private information to companies and that they were not willing to pay any amount of money for VoIP spam solutions. Users held governmental organisations and telephone operators responsible for finding a solution against VoIP spam.

Abstract:

Introducción: Existe un número reducido de estudios que han explorado la asociación entre síntomas de ansiedad social y síntomas de uso excesivo de internet. Objetivo: Determinar la relación entre la presencia de síntomas de ansiedad social y síntomas de dependencia al internet en estudiantes universitarios de segundo a quinto año de la carrera de medicina humana en el año 2018 en una universidad privada de Lima, Perú. Métodos: Se realizó un estudio transversal analítico con una población de 600 estudiantes de 2do a 5to año de medicina de 18 años a más en una universidad privada en el año 2018 en Lima, Perú. El desenlace (síntomas de uso excesivo de internet) fue medido con el Test de Young y categorizado en ausencia de síntomas, síntomas leves y síntomas moderados- severos, mientras que para la exposición (síntomas de ansiedad social) se utilizó la escala de SIAS y fue categorizada en presencia o ausencia de síntomas. Para el análisis multivariado se empleó el modelo de regresión logística multinomial; con ello se calculó el OR crudo y ajustado con un intervalo de confianza de 95%. Resultados: El 57.6% del total de estudiantes fueron mujeres y la mediana de edad para ambos géneros fue de 21 años con un rango intercuartílico entre 20 a 22 años. Se encontró que el 51.2% de los participantes presentaron síntomas de uso excesivo de internet, 27.8% corresponden a síntomas leves y 23.4% a síntomas moderados/ severos. 20.5% de los estudiantes presentaron síntomas de ansiedad social. Se encontró asociación entre síntomas de ansiedad social y los síntomas de uso excesivo de internet (p<0.001). Discusión y Conclusiones: Los estudiantes con síntomas de ansiedad social tuvieron más probabilidad de presentar síntomas de uso excesivo de internet. Se recomienda realizar estudios longitudinales para verificar la persistencia de los resultados durante el tiempo.
Introduction: There are only a few studies that have explored the association between symptoms of social anxiety and symptoms of excessive use of internet. Objetive: To determine the relationship between the presence of symptoms of social anxiety and symptoms of internet dependence in university students from the second to fifth year of the human medicine career in 2018 at a private university in Lima, Peru. Methods: An analytical cross-sectional study was conducted with a population of 600 medical students 18 years old or older from 2nd to 5th year at a private university in the year 2018 in Lima, Peru. The outcome (symptoms of excessive use of the Internet) was measured with Young's Internet Addiction Test and was classified in three categories: absence of symptoms, mild symptoms and moderate to severe symptoms, whilst the exposure (symptoms of social anxiety) was measured with SIAS scale and was categorized in two: presence or absence of symptoms. For multivariate analysis, the multinomial logistic regression model was employed; the crude OR as well as the adjusted OR were calculated and a confidence interval of 95% was used. Results: 57.6% of total students were women and median age for both genders was 21 years with an interquartile range of 20 to 22 years. It was found that 51.2% of participants had symptoms of excessive use of internet; 27.8% corresponded to mild symptoms and 23.4% to moderate to severe symptoms. 20.5% of the students had symptoms of social anxiety. We found a strong association between symptoms of social anxiety and the symptoms of excessive use of Internet (p<0.001). Discussion and Conclusions: Students with symptoms of social anxiety were more likely to have symptoms of excessive use of internet. Nevertheless, longitudinal studies are recommended in order to verify the persistence of the results over time.

Abstract:

The translationally relevant aim of this PhD is to account for the genre conventions of the LCLF mainly related to the persuasive and directive functions, by analyzing a bilingual corpus of parallel texts according to the method of contrastive textology. Genre conventions in this case are considered by sender types (public vs. private) and subtexts (text constituents functionally, semantically and formally defined) on the hypothesis that they will vary more depending on the sender type than on the language.
The intralinguistic and interlinguistic analysis of the macrostructure and the recurrent textual segments, as well as of the functions (persuasive, referential and directive) characterizing both the LCLF as a persuasive leaflet and its three subtexts does not confirm the hypothesis. It does reflect, however, that the directive and persuasive functions prevail respectively in the public and private sender leaflets, as well as in those belonging to the Spanish and German subcorpora.
Esta tesis se plantea el objetivo traductivamente relevante de dar cuenta de las convenciones del FCIE, vinculadas principalmente a las funciones persuasiva y directiva, analizando un corpus bilingüe de textos paralelos según el método de la textología contrastiva. Dichas convenciones se ven consideradas por tipos de emisor (público y privado) y subtextos (unidades constitutivas del texto funcional, semántica y formalmente definidas) a partir de la hipótesis de que diferirán más dependiendo del tipo de emisor que de la lengua.
El análisis intralingüístico e interlingüístico de la macroestructura y los segmentos textuales recurrentes, así como de las funciones (persuasiva, referencial y directiva) que caracterizan tanto el FCIE, en cuanto que folleto persuasivo, como sus tres subtextos no permite confirmar esa hipótesis. No obstante, sí evidencia cómo las funciones directiva y persuasiva priman respectivamente en los ejemplares de emisor público y privado, así como en los de los subcorpus español y alemán.

Abstract:

The General Data Protection Regulation grants data subjects the legal rights of transparency and intervenability. Ex post transparency provides users of data services with insight into how their personal data have been processed, and potentially clarifies what consequences will or may arise due to the processing of their data. Technological artefacts, ex post transparency-enhancing tools (TETs) convey such information to data subjects, provided the TETs are designed to suit the predisposition of their audience. Despite being a prerequisite for transparency, however, many of the TETs available to date lack usability in that their capabilities do not reflect the needs of their final users. The objective of this thesis is therefore to systematically apply the concept of human-centred design to ascertain design principles that demonstrably lead to the implementation of a TET that facilitates ex post transparency and supports intervenability. To this end, we classify the state of the art of usable ex post TETs published in the literature and discuss the gaps therein. Contextualising our findings in the domain of fitness tracking, we investigate to what extent individualisation can help accommodate the needs of users of online mobile health services. We introduce the notion of privacy notifications as a means to inform data subjects about incidences worthy of their attention and examine how far privacy personas reflect the preferences of distinctive groups of recipients. We suggest a catalogue of design guidelines that can serve as a basis for specifying context-sensitive requirements for the implementation of a TET that leverages privacy notifications to facilitate ex post transparency, and which also serve as criteria for the evaluation of a future prototype.

Abstract:

Le droit international privé est éprouvé par les droits fondamentaux. Les données à partir desquelles la discipline a été pensée ont d’abord évolué. Les droits de l’homme créent une connexion entre les ordres juridiques étatiques et protègent la mobilité internationale des personnes. Si cette évolution ne remet pas en cause l’existence du problème de droit international privé, force est d’admettre que les droits fondamentaux modifient aujourd’hui son analyse. Tandis que les conflits d’ordres juridiques sont transformés en conflit de valeurs, la hiérarchie des intérêts du droit international privé est remplacée par leur mise en balance. Les solutions de droit international privé sont, ainsi, perturbées par l’application contentieuse des droits fondamentaux. La proportionnalité est plus précisément à l’origine de cette perturbation. Technique de réalisation des droits de l’homme, la proportionnalité a une incidence inégale sur la discipline. Si le contrôle de proportionnalité épargne ses méthodes, il bouleverse en revanche ses solutions. Les Cours européennes ont tendance à privilégier la continuité des situations juridiques sur la défense de la cohésion interne. Aussi pressent-elles le droit international privé à libéraliser ses solutions. L’application contentieuse des droits fondamentaux doit, dès lors, être rationalisée pour préserver l’autorité et la prévisibilité des solutions du conflit de lois et de juridictions. C’est en dissociant l’application des droits de l’homme de l’exception d’ordre public international et en corrigeant la mise en œuvre du contrôle de proportionnalité que l’équilibre du droit international privé pourrait, nous semble-t-il, se reconstruire
Fundamental rights put private international law to the test. First, the context in which private international law operates has evolved. Fundamental rights have created a better, closer, intertwining of the separate state legal orders and have achieved a higher protection for the persons as they experience international mobility. If this evolution does not threaten, as such, the existence of private international law, it must be acknowledged that fundamental rights modify its analysis. Whereas the conflicts between legal orders are transformed into conflicts between values, the hierarchy of interests protected by private international law is replaced by a balancing of these interests. The solutions of private international law are thus disrupted by the enforcement of fundamental rights through litigation. Proportionality is at the source of this disruption. Being a case by case technique of enforcement of fundamental rights, the influence of the proportionality test on private international is uneven. If the proportionality test is found to be overall indifferent to the methods of private international law, its main impact is on the solutions of PIL. The European courts are indeed prone to favour the continuity in the legal situations of the persons, over the defence of the internal cohesion of the state legal orders. As a consequence, private international law is invited to reach liberal solutions. The enforcement of fundamental rights through litigation must hence be clarified so as to maintain a mesure of authority and predictability of the solutions of the rules of conflict of laws, international jurisdiction and recognition of foreign judgements. It is, on the one hand, by methodologically dissociating the enforcement of fundamental rights from the public policy exception and, on the other hand, through an amendment to the proportionality test, that the balance of private international may hopefully be restored

This research aims at investigating how an English for Specific Purpose one-to-one course, mainly focused on the speaking skill, meets the students learning needs and prepares them to take the TOEFL iBT test (Test of English as a Foreign Language Internet-based Test). The study is grounded on the theoretical principles about English for Specific Purposes as supported by Hutchinson and Waters (1987); Dudley-Evans and St. John (1998); Ramos (2004, 2009); Belcher (2009); Basturkmen (2010); needs analysis according to Hutchinson and Waters (1987); Dudley-Evans and ST. John (1998); Long (2005); task-based teaching as proposed by Willis (1996); Willis and Willis (2001, 2007); Ellis (2003, 2005); Skehan (2003); Nunan (2004); course design and material development according to Hutchinson and Waters (1987); Dudley Evans and St. John (1998); Graves (2000); Tomlinson (2001, 2003); and language assessment as defended by McNamara (2000) and Scaramucci (2004, 2009, 2011). Methodologically, this research is considered a case study (STAKE, 1998; JOHNSON, 1992), and it made use of the following instruments for data collection: questionnaires in the beginning of the course to identify the students profiles, and at the end of the course to learn about the students perceptions as to their progress; audio recording of two speaking tasks on the first and last day of class; teacher-researcher s diaries at the end of every class containing the students perceptions of their performance in class. The results revealed the students satisfaction regarding the course methodology and material, as well as the perception of reading and listening skills improvement. It was interesting to note that, although the main focus of the course was on the speaking skill, the perception of improvement of the writing skill was higher than that of the speaking skill. The students narratives also indicated the importance of teacher-student interaction and praised the attention given by the teacher to their emotional aspects. This work aims at bringing contributions not only to ESP course teachers and to those who work with language assessment, but also to the research field as it lacks studies related to the speaking skill and private classes
Este trabalho tem por objetivo investigar como um curso de Inglês para Fins Específicos, com priorização na produção oral, realizado por meio de aulas particulares, atende as necessidades de aprendizagem de alunos e os capacita a prestar o exame TOEFL iBT (Test of English as a Foreign Language Internet-based Test). O referencial teórico englobou os conceitos sobre Inglês para Fins Específicos de acordo com Hutchinson e Waters (1987); Dudley-Evans e St. John (1998); Ramos (2004, 2009); Belcher (2009); Basturkmen (2010); análise de necessidades conforme proposto por Hutchinson e Waters (1987); Dudley-Evans e ST. John (1998); Long (2005); ensino baseado em tarefa segundo Willis (1996); Willis e Willis (2001, 2007); Ellis (2003, 2005); Skehan (2003); Nunan (2004); desenho de curso e desenvolvimento de materiais à luz de Hutchinson e Waters (1987); Dudley Evans e St. John (1998); Graves (2000); Tomlinson (2001, 2003); e avaliação de línguas conforme defendido por McNamara (2000) e Scaramucci (2004, 2009, 2011). Este trabalho, caracterizado como estudo de caso (STAKE, 1998; JOHNSON, 1992), utilizou para coleta de dados os seguintes instrumentos: questionários no início do curso para investigar o perfil do aluno, e ao final do curso, para identificar as percepções dos alunos quanto a seu progresso; gravação em áudio no primeiro e no último dia de aula de duas tarefas de produção oral; diários da professora-pesquisadora ao final de cada aula com as percepções do aluno referente ao desempenho em aula. Os resultados revelaram a satisfação dos alunos quanto à metodologia e material didático empregados no curso e a percepção da melhora na compreensão oral e escrita. Foi interessante notar que, embora o curso tivesse mantido o foco principal na produção oral, a percepção de melhora da produção escrita foi superior à melhora da produção oral. Os relatos dos alunos também indicaram a importância da interação professora-aluno e a atenção dada pela professora ao aspecto emocional dos alunos para essa percepção de melhora. Este trabalho pretende trazer contribuições não só para aqueles que lecionam em cursos de Inglês para Fins Específicos e trabalham com avaliações de língua, mas também para o campo de estudos por ser este ainda carente de pesquisas sobre aulas particulares e produção oral

Full text

Abstract:

Les notions d’exception d’ordre public et de lois de police appartiennent au vocabulaire de la théorie générale du droit international privé. Il est légitime de se demander si cette affirmation de principe est illustrée par une comparaison franco-mexicaine. La pertinence d’un tel rapprochement peut paraître suspecte, compte tenu de la participation de la France à un processus plus ou moins fédérateur, du fait de son appartenance à l’Union européenne ; alors que le Mexique s’organise autour d’un « pacte fédéral ». Or, la comparaison retrouve sa pertinence dès lors qu’on observe que le rapport entre l’État-Nation et le droit international privé passe inexorablement par le prisme de la souveraineté et que la France et le Mexique demeurent détenteurs de la souveraineté au plan international. L’analyse se rend possible grâce à l’existence d’un fond historique et d’une culture juridique communes, elle se circonscrit à la matière contractuelle car particulièrement sensible aux mécanismes liés à l’ordre public. Cependant, le droit international privé a évolué depuis l’identification et la construction des grandes catégories que sont l’exception d’ordre public et les lois de police aboutissant à un certain nombre d’affinements dont il faudra vérifier leur orientation. Éléments d’affinement aussi multiples que variés tels que les droits fondamentaux, la protection de la partie faible, le contrôle de constitutionnalité, et la proportionnalité entre autres, font de cette étude l’occasion de mettre en évidence le caractère évolutif des mécanismes liés à l’ordre public en droit international privé
The concepts of public policy and overriding mandatory rules are to be found within the vocabulary of the general theory of conflict of laws. It is legitimate to ask whether this statement of principle can be illustrated by a French-Mexican comparison. The relevance of such a comparison may seem doubtful, given France's participation in a more or less unifying process, due to its membership of the European Union; whereas Mexico, on the other hand, is organized around a "federal pact". However, the comparison remains relevant as we can observe that the relationship between the nation-state and private international law inexorably passes through the prism of sovereignty and that France and Mexico remain masters of their sovereignty at the international level. This analysis is made possible thanks to the existence of a common historical background and a common legal culture, contractual matters are specifically targeted due to their high level of sensitivity to the influence of public policy. However, private international law has evolved since the identification and construction of the broad categories of the public policy and overriding mandatory rules, which have led to a number of developments whose orientation will have to be verified. These specification elements as multiple as they are varied, such as fundamental rights, protection of the weaker party, constitutional review and proportionality, among others, renders this study an opportunity to highlight the evolving nature of mechanisms related to public policy in international private contract law

Abstract:

Il presente lavoro è volto ad analizzare un particolare aspetto della disciplina della responsabilità civile del medico: si tratta dell’utilizzo di documenti medico-scientifici, variamente denominati practice parameters, practice patterns, written policies, protocols, standards, e riassumibili nella locuzione clinical practice guidelines o linee-guida per la pratica clinica, che viene fatto dai rule makers, siano essi legislatori o giudici, per individuare il criterio di giudizio della condotta tenuta dal medico. Nel primo capitolo, dopo aver brevemente accennato alle necessarie nozioni di epistemologia della medicina, al contenuto delle guidelines e alla metodologia con cui esse vengono prodotte, si dà conto di alcune interazioni tra scienza e diritto verificatesi – con riferimento ai documenti medico-scientifici in esame – nell’ordinamento dell’Unione Europea, del Consiglio d’Europa e poi in quello italiano. Lo studio della responsabilità medica, nonché quello dell’utilizzo delle guidelines, induce poi ad attingere alle risorse della comparazione giuridica. In particolare, si è imposta la scelta dell’ordinamento degli Stati Uniti d’America, in quanto proprio dalla dottrina americana è stata formulata per la prima volta alla fine degli anni ’80 l’ipotesi di utilizzare le linee-guida nei processi per medical malpractice. Nel secondo capitolo si offre perciò una ricostruzione dettagliata del sistema delle fonti e del ruolo delle giurisdizioni statali e federali nella produzione e applicazione del diritto americano, con particolare attenzione alla responsabilità civile del medico. Inoltre, per quanto attiene alla struttura della medical malpractice, si rileva che il criterio di giudizio prevalentemente utilizzato è quello della medical custom, che è ritenuta un fatto, il quale deve essere pertanto oggetto di prova dinnanzi alla giuria. Da ciò discende che nei processi relativi alla responsabilità civile del medico assumono particolare rilievo le conoscenze tecniche in materia di medical custom, però negli Stati Uniti una consulenza tecnica d’ufficio non viene praticamente mai disposta dal giudice: poiché l’onere della prova del breach of duty grava sull’attore, si osserva che l’expert witness di parte in materia di negligenza del medico diviene un requisito astrattamente necessario di procedibilità della domanda del paziente. È dunque in un’ottica essenzialmente probatoria, e cioè nell’interazione e – a volte – nella contrapposizione con quanto affermato dalla expert testimony, che la giurisprudenza e la dottrina americane concepiscono l’uso processuale delle linee-guida per la pratica clinica. Si prosegue perciò con l’analisi delle regole della Law of Evidence, con particolare attenzione al vaglio sulla expert witness testimony imposto dal c.d. Daubert test, e alle disposizioni in materia di ammissibilità dei documenti nel trial. Nel terzo capitolo, si dimostra che l’uso delle linee-guida nei processi americani per medical malpractice è un fatto assai più frequente di quello che la dottrina americana ritiene, e che le regole appena descritte in materia di Evidence costituiscono tuttora i riferimenti normativi più significativi per il giudizio di ammissibilità e rilevanza di tali documenti, più che i pochi statutes speciali in materia di linee-guida e responsabilità medica, che sembrano essere invece il modello a cui ha fatto riferimento il legislatore italiano per l’adozione del decreto Balduzzi. Nel quarto capitolo si ritorna al diritto italiano, e si ricostruisce la parabola che ha portato, nel nostro ordinamento, la responsabilità civile dall’illecito aquiliano alla responsabilità per inadempimento dell’obbligazione da contatto sociale. Si mettono inoltre in rilievo le distorsioni operate dalla giurisprudenza, che ha voluto caratterizzare la disciplina di questa responsabilità in senso oggettivo assoluto. Nel quinto capitolo, si rileva che in questo humus – assai diverso da quello della Law of Torts – viene trapiantata dall’art. 3, co. 1 d.l. 13 settembre 2012, n. 158 conv. con modif. in l. 8 novembre 2012, n. 189 l’idea di escludere la responsabilità del medico in caso di rispetto delle linee-guida, che trae ispirazione da alcuni statutes americani, i quali però – come si è detto – non rappresentano “il” modello più autorevole e diffuso in materia negli Stati Uniti. Viene poi effettuato un inquadramento delle guidelines assai differente rispetto a quanto accade oltreoceano: infatti, se l’obbligazione del medico ha ad oggetto una prestazione a regola d’arte, sinonimo di perizia, tali documenti si devono collocare a livello del criterio di qualificazione giuridica della condotta, non a quello dell’accertamento del fatto, e dunque non sono affatto prove, a differenza di quanto ritengono generalmente i giuristi americani. Si sostiene, in seguito, che in forza del principio iura novit curia e dell’esplicito richiamo di cui all’art. 3, co. 1 decreto Balduzzi, il giudice è tenuto a conoscere e a fare uso delle linee-guida per la pratica clinica nell’accertamento della responsabilità civile del medico, nella misura in cui esse siano applicabili al caso di specie e scientificamente valide. Proprio per quanto attiene al vaglio giudiziale di tali documenti, e specialmente a quello relativo alla loro validità scientifica, si propone poi all’interprete italiano di cogliere i frutti dell’esperienza americana, guardando con particolare attenzione al Daubert test. Ma nella circolazione del modello che qui si propone, si è coscienti che l’originale subisce alcune importanti modificazioni, di cui si dà conto. Infine, si definiscono i limiti entro i quali la Cassazione può sindacare l’utilizzo delle linee-guida da parte dei giudici di merito.
PHD DISSERTATION - ABSTRACT - THE ASCERTAINMENT OF MEDICAL MALPRACTICE THROUGH CLINICAL PRACTICE GUIDELINES AND OTHER SCIENTIFIC DOCUMENTS. This PhD dissertation aims to analyze a specific aspect of Medical Malpractice Law: the use of scientific documents – known as practice parameters, practice patterns, written policies, protocols, standards or clinical practice guidelines – by rule makers (legislators and Courts) in order to identify the standard of care for health care practitioners. In the first chapter, after a short introduction on fundamental notions of medical epistemology, guidelines’ content and their production, some interactions between Science and Law are described, picking the European Union Law, Council of Europe Law and finally Italian Law. Research on guidelines and Medical Malpractice calls for taking the advantage of Comparative Legal Studies. In particular, the legal system of the United States of America has been chosen. This because American scholars have first proposed in the ‘80s to use guidelines in Medical Malpractice trials. The second chapter offers thus a detailed picture of the sources of the law, including the role of state and federal Courts in making American Law. Focusing then on Medical Malpractice, it has to be said that the majority of the States adopted medical custom as the standard of care, which is a matter of fact, to be proven in front of the jury. According to this, in Medical Malpractice trials expert witness testimony about medical custom became very relevant, but no Court in the U.S. appoints experts. This, and the fact that the plaintiff retains the burden of proof of the breach of duty, makes partisan expert testimony mandatory for the claim of the patient to be heard by the jury. Therefore, Courts and scholars in the United States put guidelines in the Evidence Law frame, looking at how they interact – or sometimes clash – with expert testimonies. So, the chapter ends with an analysis of the Law of Evidence, with a focus on the so called “Daubert test” on expert witnesses, and one on the admissibility of documents. The third chapter demonstrates that the use of clinical practice guidelines in Medical Malpractice trials is way more frequent than American scholars think. Furthermore, it shows that the above-mentioned rules of Evidence are still the most relevant source of the law governing admissibility and relevance of these documents. Evidence Law indeed is far more relevant than the small number of state and federal statutes on Medical Malpractice that mention guidelines as a judicial tool for assessing liability. But these statutes seem to have inspired the Italian legislator seems adopting the so called “decreto Balduzzi” (see art. 3, comma 1 d.l. n. 158 of 2012 – l. n. 189 of 2012). The fourth chapter goes back to the Italian legal system, describing the path that brought Medical Malpractice from Tort Law to Contract Law through the so called “contatto sociale” doctrine. Furthermore, the case law caused some distortions of the rules that are now similar to strict liability. The fifth chapter describes a legal transplant from American Tort Law to the very different Italian legal environment: the idea of giving a defense to doctors who complied with clinical practice guidelines. Anyhow, some American state statutes, not the prevailing traditional Evidence Law pattern, have influenced the Italian legislator. Moreover, the conceptual framing of clinical practice guidelines under Italian Law is very different from the original. In Italy, Medical Malpractice is a branch of Contract Law, according to which the clinician is bound to perform treatments with the due technical expertise (“perizia”). Scientific documents can help Courts to define doctor’s behavior as coping with technical expertise, which is a matter of law. Guidelines cannot prove any fact. Therefore, they are not related to Evidence Law. The core of this PhD dissertation is that Italian Courts have to take judicial notice of clinical practice guidelines in Medical Malpractice trials. This comes out of the “iura novit curia” principle (“The Court must know the law” principle) and art. 3, co. 1 of decreto Balduzzi, which explicitly talks about clinical practice guidelines and iatrogenic injuries. The above-mentioned scientific documents have also to pass muster under a test of applicability to the case and scientific validity. This dissertation suggests taking the advantage of the American experience, in particular of the so called “Daubert doctrine”. However, even this would be a legal transplant, in which the original model would be surely modified, as this work shows. Finally, the fifth chapter describes how Cassazione Court could reverse lower Courts’ decisions that apply clinical practice guidelines in Medical Malpractice cases.

The purpose of this study is to compare the equality of two secret values. Secure multiparty computation in the previous study, usually through the protocol the two sides, the one is announcer and the other one be told. The one be told by the announcer who notified the results of verification, and the one be told only can believe that the message. Through the semi-honest party can solve by the above problems and reduce the computation required, but you can find a trusted third party is not easy. Based on the above problems, this study proposed in the framework of both the secret of a new calculation of protocol, in this protocol the two parties (the one is announcer, the other one be told) can calculate each have a secret are equal or not. If different, this protocol does not leak any information about the secret value.

In the era of cloud computing, the cloud server always plays a significant role to carry the heavy tasks of computation. As for storage services, it provides an efficient way to accessing data. For data privacy, encryption is usually referred to as the simple approach, but in fact cloud services cannot work with the traditional encryption. However, outsourced computing over encrypted data receives a lot attention of preserving privacy in the cloud setting. In the literature, lots of cryptographic primitives (i.e., homomorphic encryption, searchable encryption, encryption with equality test) have tackled a few cloud applications for preserving privacy and accessing encrypted data, and those require perfect match with query and data. A relaxed notion comparing with perfect match is similarity over encrypted data. Privacy-preserving outsourced similarity test (PPOS) over encrypted data is introduced to satisfy the following scenario. The cloud stores encrypted data with the encrypted feature vector, and then picks up the target data by testing similarity between those vectors and the search query. Recently, Zhang et al. proposed a PPOS scheme based on additive homomorphic encryption, garbled circuits, and ciphertext-policy attribute based encryption. In this thesis, we aim for presenting the formal security model and new scheme of PPOS. At first, we provide a formal definition to capture simulation security for PPOS against the semi-honest adversary. Secondly, we would like to use as few primitives as possible to minimize hardness assumptions in cryptography. Our solution is to avoid using homomorphic encryption to construct the proposed scheme simply from garbled circuits and ciphertext-policy attribute based encryption. However, there is a challenge that the security of garbled circuits cannot be directly applied to prove the security of the proposed scheme. Finally, we decouple the garbled circuit into many components of chosen double encryption, and then complete the security proof by using the security of chosen double encryption.

Abstract:

How are homeless individuals, who have no access to private space yet still have the same needs of dwelling as the rest of us, regarded when they exercise their right to dwell? This question guided my research of Edmontons Tent City, which emerged during the summer of 2007. Interviews with twenty-two individuals, including with encampment residents, service providers, and state officials, informed a broader understanding of why the encampment emerged at the time that it did; how Edmontons public spaces accommodate the homeless; and, how Tent City shaped municipal and provincial policy on housing and homelessness. Homeless campers saw Tent City as home, while state management focused on excluding homeless campers from the downtown public space to restore order to the streets of Edmonton, as well as their positive public image. Tent City constituted a claim by homeless campers to occupy public space and be represented as part of the public but hitherto this has been met with increased strategies of dispersement and exclusion rather than with an expansion of citizenship rights. I argue that Tent City illuminates the states preoccupation with regulating the visibility of homeless individuals rather than focusing on the dwelling needs of homeless campers.

This thesis focuses on the HIV patients and minors of medical privacy issues, especially focuses on the partner notification of the HIV patients, and may minors conduct medical care without parental consent. 　　Society often tags a stigmatized label on AIDS, so AIDS patients in employment, medical care and even other relevant social links relatively have many difficulties, also because society generates a lot of misunderstandings and disgust cognitive on AIDS, so that medical privacy of AIDS patients is particularly important . Medical staff look after HIV patients, should uphold the obligation of confidentiality to safeguard the interests of the patients , or should they violate the obligation of confidentiality so that it could avoid third party being affected? Or should medical units collect medical information of HIV patients in order to take into account of the public interest? Although there are no partner notification laws in our country, but it is clear that the HIV patient's own obligation to inform their spouses or sexual partners, as to whether should the role of medical staff also have to informed the third party? Therefore, in this thesis cited journals and statute, the partner notification of Maryland or Michigan described in the Act clarify that doctors are not necessarily play the roles of informed patients, states imposed duty on doctors also have varying degrees. 　　Whether can mature minors consent to medical care independently? Taiwan society has long-term focused on the controversial discussion. In our country, the regulations did not stipulate perfectly like U.S that discussed every situation, so this thesis also refers to the foreign journals, whether minors can make autonomous consent or not, making a series of discussion.

Abstract:

Os textos produzidos em nossa sociedade são tão variados que as pessoas interagem incessantemente. Frente a essa diversidade, escolheu-se abordar um gênero de grande circulação na esfera social: a propaganda, e analisar os efeitos do discurso publicitário na formação crítica dos alunos do 3º ano do Ensino Médio na escola pública Rodoval Borges Silva e na escola privada Grupo Perspectivas Construtivas, localizadas no município de Santana, com o intuito de elucidar o debate teórico que suscita a questão dos métodos tradicionais de ensino com novas formas de conhecimento, visto que a propaganda está presente por meio de inúmeros portadores, seja na mídia impressa (jornais, revistas, cartazes, prospectos, folhetos), seja na eletrônica (cinema, televisão, internet). Além disso, para que fosse melhor entendido o contexto, foi importante verificar, de que maneira as instituições de ensino em conjunto com os docentes organizavam-se e trabalhavam a formação de leitores proficientes, no sentido de dinamizar e incrementar as aulas de língua portuguesa em situações reais de comunicação e usos sociais. Sob esse ponto de vista, diante dos questionamentos suscitados, através de nosso estudo comparativo mediante a temática – O discurso publicitário na escola pública e privada – constatamos (através de análise de entrevistas feitas às diretoras, professores e pedagogos e pela aplicação de questionários a alunos) que o gênero propagandístico não é inserido no currículo formal como uma produção cultural e os professores que utilizam o discurso publicitário são de forma individualizada em que predominam os aspectos formais da linguagem, nas escolas participantes de nossa dissertação. Dessa forma, o objetivo de trabalhar com este gênero foi o de verificar de que maneira os alunos estavam se relacionando com a diversidade linguística do mundo moderno e qual o posicionamento crítico nas relações de poder e ideologias presentes no mesmo. Nesse aspecto, os alunos da rede privada por terem mais contato com textos publicitários, em alguns momentos, tiveram uma postura mais crítica e proficiente com base nos questionários propostos. Além disso, pretende-se com este trabalho, possibilidades de transformar a pedagogia apenas tradicional em uma pedagogia da dinâmica social, proporcionando a superação de leituras superficiais e lineares e colaborar com pesquisas pertinentes à área de ensino aprendizagem, bem como reiterar as ideias de uma nova forma de conceber e trabalhar a linguagem em sala de aula. No sentido de sensibilizar os professores, para este tipo de texto, planificou-se um Workshop para cada escola.
The texts produced in our society are so varied that people interact constantly. In view of this diversity, we chose to address a wide circulation of gender in the social sphere: the propaganda, and analyze the effects of advertising discourse on the critical training of students of the 3rd year of high school in the public school Rodoval Borges Silva and private school group Constructive perspective, located in the municipality of Santana, in order to elucidate the theoretical debate that raises the question of traditional teaching methods with new forms of knowledge, as the advertising is present through numerous carriers, either in print (newspapers , magazines, posters, leaflets, flyers) or the electronic (film, television, internet). Furthermore, to be better understood the context, it was important to check how the educational institutions together with teachers were organized and worked the formation of proficient readers, to streamline and enhance the Portuguese language classes in real communication situations and social uses. From this point of view, before we raised questions through our comparative study by the theme - The advertising discourse in public and private schools - found (through analysis of interviews with principals , teachers and pedagogues and the application of questionnaires to students ) that the propaganda genre is not included in the formal curriculum as a cultural production and the teachers who use the advertising discourse are individually predominate in the formal aspects of language, the participants of our dissertation schools. Thus, in order to work with this genre, it was to see how the students were relating to the linguistic diversity of the modern world and that the critical position in power relations and ideologies present in the same. In this sense, the students of the private network to have more contact with advertising texts, at times, had a more critical and proficient approach based on the proposed questionnaires. In addition, it is intended with this work, possibilities of transforming just traditional pedagogy in pedagogy of social dynamics, providing overcoming superficial and linear readings and collaborate with relevant research in the area of education learning, and to renew the ideas of a new way of designing and working language in the classroom. In order to sensitize teachers, for this type of text, has planned is a workshop for each school.

Traditionally, information value of analysts’ recommendations has been well-recognized by cumulative abnormal returns. Recent studies show that individuals are underperformed, and therefore, it is a critical issue on if analysts’ recommendations are helpful to individuals’ welfares. The first contribution of this dissertation to the literature is to examine whether individual investors are capable of capturing the information value. To classify the information value of recommendations for individuals and institutions, respectively, I, thus, use a direct measure to calculate the actual trading profits of types of traders. To our best knowledge, this is the first paper that demonstrates the information value for types of investors. Our results indicate that, all investors get positive and significant profits in brokerages’ buy recommendations, no matter what types of investors are measured. As to sell recommendations, only foreign investors and mutual funds have positive returns. We also find that professional institutions earn more profits than retail investors during the recommendation event periods. Further, the second objective of this dissertation is to test whether the information values are caused by private information from brokerages’ houses, we separate the profits of types of investors into customers and non-customers based. The findings are that only domestic institutional customers of recommending brokerages are more beneficial than those of non-recommending brokerages in buy recommendations, which implies that brokerage houses may reveal private information to their own institutional customers before buy recommendations make public. This does not hold for sell recommendations. Third, we are interested in analyzing whether the private information that recommending brokerages provide to their own customers may, indeed, contribute to brokerages’ commission revenues. By comparing the trading volume of recommending brokerages and non-recommending brokerage for the covered stocks, we find that the volumes of covered stocks issued in the recommending brokerages are increased for buy recommendations. Particularly, we find that the main contribution of trading volume is from individuals. Furthermore, we run regressions to study the relationship between trading profits of types of investors and trading volume of recommending brokerages. After controlling recommendation types, consensus rating of recommendations, and stock characteristics, our results indicate that trading profits of all types of investors are positively related to commission revenues of brokerages. This may justify the importance of brokerage recommendations on their business relationships.
