competitividade; serviço ao cliente. Abstract The current enterprise environment is characterized by being a place where the changes occur very fast, demanding of the companies usage many times a flexible strategies that permit a bigger possibility of achieving the previously how to plan. Therefore, this article’s objective is to show important concepts about the usage of different logistics strategies with the purpose to offering a competitive differential before its competition to…

to determine the causes of water quality degradation and to quantify pollution contributions from many sources. Until such time as adequate facts are made available through research to delineate causes and sources, conflicting opinions continue to flourish and programmes to control and abate pollution will be less effective and efficient in the use of limited resources. Existing knowledge indicates that agricultural operations can contribute to water quality deterioration through the…

STRATEGY SAFARI A GUIDED TOURTHROUGH THE WILDS OF STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT HENRY MINTZBERG BRUCE AHLSTRAND JOSEPH LAMPEL There are some people who begin the Zoo at the beginning, called WAYIN, and walk as quickly as they can past every cage until they come to the one called WAYOUT, but the nicest people go straight to the animal they love the most, and stay there. —A. A. Milne, in the Introduction to Winnie-The-Pooh We dedicate this book to such people who are more interested in open fields

aims to explain the technical and theoretical knowledge about the cloud computing to provide applications. Through the theoretical referential, we explain the general concept of cloud computing history particularly focusing on the economic advantages and usual, but also demonstrating the problems that cloud computing can cause. Was also carried out a comparative research between the main market platforms and the implementation of an application in two different platforms for the…

Working Paper No. 2011/92 Climate Change and Infrastructure Investment in Developing Countries The Case of Mozambique Channing Arndt1, Paul Chinowsky,2 Kenneth Strzepek,3 and James Thurlow4 December 2011 Abstract Climate change may damage road infrastructure to the potential detriment of economic growth, particularly in developing countries. To quantitatively assess climate change’s consequences, we construct a climate-infrastructure model based on stressor-response relationships…

Study of the Delta4 function in the regulation of angiogenesis Abstract The vascular system is one of the most important in mammals and the first to become functional during embryonic development. Its formation requires the complex coordination of several genetic and cellular mechanisms. Understanding these mechanisms is highly important for the development of new therapies devised to inhibit or promote the formation of new blood vessels (neoangiogenesis). The Notch signalling pathway…

Scope The Internet of Things (IoT) is the terminology used for uniquely identifiable objects (or, things) and their virtual representations in an Internet-like structure. The idea of IoT considers same ubiquitous environment as that is for ubiquitous or pervasive computing. Basic difference between pervasive computing and IoT is that when the same setting is seen from the conceptual angle, it is termed pervasive environment but when seen from the angle of identifiable objects taking…

perspectives on recent research aimed at the further development of ceramics for clinical use, at their evaluation aud selection, and very importantly, their clinical performance. Innovative ceramic materials and ceramics processing strategies that were introduced to restorative dentistry since the early 1980s are discussed. Notable research is highlighted regarding (1) wear of ceramics and opposing enamel, (2) polishability of porcelains, (3) influence of firing history on the thermal…
