The object of this study is the integrated problem of lot sizing and scheduling of the soft drink production. Such problem consists of deciding how much to produce of each drink and in each period and in which sequence, in order to satisfy the demand and to minimize the costs of storage, backlogging and changeover. The set up times of the machines are sequencedependent, consequently the production scheduling is complex. The problem is capacitated, multi-item, with changeover times and costs dependent of the sequence. In this study we propose three mixed integer optimization models and solution approaches to solve the problem. The models are based in cases studies of a large soft drink facility, and a small facility. We developed relax and fix heuristics to solve de models. The results show that the proposed strategies are competitive when we compare with solutions of the facilities.

The low income of the illiterate population in Brazil was for a long time pointed as a consequence of its educational situation and cause of a gap between the highly sophisticated work market and a non qualified hand labor. The State, aiming to correct this disproportion through education, has started to create opportunities of access to education, targeting a better social justice level. The minimum income projects monetary help were not originally linked to the education. They used to target an income universal allocation in order to face unemployment and poverty. With time, the minimum income programs in Brazil have restricted the benefits supply to the families which had children in school age. The link between income and education was incorporated in order to join the idea that the State could not only furnish the benefit without no the beneficiary to learn anything from the process, as a counterpart. Besides that, that would be a way to make the education universal right possible, as it is determined by the Human Rights Declaration, Constitution, BDL and CTA. In São José do Rio Preto, one of the São Paulo State cities with better HDR (Human Development Rate) (0,834) and educational coverage in the country, the introduction of the School Fund Program had as its basis the same principles as the Federal Government School Fund Executive Program. The research evaluates and concludes the lack of any kind of special attendance to the families helped and the control, restricted only to the observing of the children frequency to school. Finally, through a questionnaire applied to the students, parents and teachers from Darcy Ribeiro City School and to the City Education Secretary we have evaluated the children school development before and after receiving the Fund, besides the idea the Education Secretary has towards the Program.

This master thesis deals with the involved aspects for the creation of a framework for connectivity in JAMP (Java Architecture for Media Processing). The conception of this framework aims to make possible the use of mobile devices by means of other wireless network technologies. Such technologies, as Bluetooth, used for the publication/localization of services registered in the JBroker, the broker of JAMP Platform developed in Java/RMI, as well as the communication of devices that make use of such technologies through this broker, had been used in the implementation and tests of the framework developed. The implementation aims to access, from devices with Bluetooth network interface, the available remote services in the Internet. These services are requested by mobile devices, such as PDAs, cellular or smartphones, that they consult access points, in Bluetooth communication. The access points consult the JBroker that returns a reference for the service to be consumed. The access points then direct the result to the mobile devices. The experiments developed in this work had been based on scenes where a mobile device, in Bluetooth communication, requests services to a point of access in a PC and this, saw TCP/IP, invokes remote methods in the servers who disponibilizam the services, saw Java/RMI. JAMP already all presented the mechanism of localization of services saw Java/RMI, however it did not present the extension developed with this work, where they had been created one proxy, that it is executed in the access point, and the use of services of the JAMP to break mobile devices that if communicate through technology of different net of TCP/IP. Being thus, its innovation is in the capacity of use of devices that make use of technology of Bluetooth net, being able to be extended to other technologies, without needing would reengeneering previously existing in the architecture.

Ce travail a l intention d éclarcir la portée des considérations de Merleau- Ponty sur le comportément. On a fait l inventaire critique sur le comportément, tel que cet notion est presentée dans l oeuvre « La Structure du Comportément ». On a cherché de montrer que lesécoles classiques de psychologie, se trouvent devent deux positions : l intellectualiste, que préconise une psychologie analytique de la conscience comme sa cause productrice et son antithèse empiriste, laquelle se mantient fidèle a la pensée causalle, lorsque elle a determinée pour le psychisme une realité matérielle extérieur. Ce sont, deux positions antithétiques vis a vis la relation entre consciencenature : la philosohie intellectualiste que fait de la nature une unité constitué par la conscience et la science empirique, que separe la conscience et la nature comme si elles étaient deux réalités que appartiennent à la même catégorie substantielle, liée par des rélations de cause et effet. Dans la séquence, ayant en vue les conséquences de ces théories classiques, on va dans la diréction d une nouvelle description du comportément : les idées de expérience directe et de structure. Finalement, on a cherché, a travers une lecture de la « Phénomenologie de la Perception », montrer comment une conception phenomenique du comportémentl est elle possible, si on mantient les catégories de expérience directe et de structure, pour qu on puisse, a traves une approche phénomenique du corps, élaborer une nouvelle lecture des relations entre conscience et nature.

Blown of films is one of the most important processes of polymers for packaging application. The final properties are strongly linked with the morphology developed during the processing. The relationship between process variables, morphology and final properties is extremely complex being strongly related to the rheological behavior of the polymer, principally for blown films. Nanocomposites constitute a new class of materials which present better barrier, mechanical and thermal properties and better performance for greenhouses films, without decreasing the optical properties and the conditions of blown film process, having great potential for packaging applications. Therefore, the aim of this work was to investigate the mixing variables on the blown film process that are most important on the morphology of High Density Polyethylene nanocomposites films and its relationship with mechanical and barriers properties. Two different screws profiles were used. The nanocomposite produced by the configuration was used to produce the blown films. The properties of the films showed a strong improvement compared to the neat polymer films.

The advent of grid computing made possible to access distributed resources, even when they are geographically spread or belong to different organizations. The most used environment for accessing these distributed resources is the Internet, a worldwide computer network based in TCP/IP architecture. Grid computing provides the infrastructure necessary for managing and communicating with the resources offered by different organizations. These organizations are also known as virtual organizations (VO's). Some of the applications used in these collaborating environments may have minimum requirements by quality of service (QoS). However, the "best effort" service, which is offered by Internet, is not capable to satisfy these QoS requirements. In this case, a different solution is needed, in order to provide guarantees related to the traffic in communication channels. This master thesis aims to apply the concepts of quality of service for networks in grid computing, providing end-to-end quality of service between grid computing applications. In order to achieve this goal, we investigate the use of commutation infrastructure provided by MPLS networks. Using traffic engineering mechanisms for routes determination, we aim to provide better control of data flows, improving the performance of distributed applications in geographically highly spread environments.

This work aimed to analyze the process of reformulation/creation of Teaching Courses in Chemistry of public universities of São Paulo to attend the new legislation. It was also observed the engagement of professors and students staffs in this initial forming process, looking at the reflexive paradigm of Donald A. Schön. The gathering of data in this qualitative research consisted in analyzing pedagogical projects and curriculum matrix of courses before and after that reformulation, as well as in interviewing personally coordinators of courses, teachers of the older subject Teaching Practice in Chemistry and Supervised Stage and three students of the conclusion year in nine different courses in the state. It was observed that this process of reformulation/creation occurred with a low involvement of the professors; in addition, in a general way, we can say that exist a strong diverse treatment related to these courses and the teaching occupation, diminishing them if compared to bachelorship course and researching activities. Excepting isolated cases, the professor staff of those courses demonstrates a low preoccupation with his teaching activity as well as to educate his students to become teachers according to the reflexive professional model. The activities of Teaching Practice as a Curriculum Component and Curriculum Stage are not detailed in some pedagogical projects, to the point that some coordinators do not know the nature of these activities or facts, such as, for example, the observing classes as a kind of stage is not relevant as a formative experience in the students opinion. There is a significant detachment among the units that teach the Chemistry and Pedagogical subjects as well as among the University and High School, that injured the forming of Chemistry good teachers. It was noticed to be necessary (and urgent) institutional changes in the direction of requiring that the professors be dedicated in equal responsibility to teaching activity, as occurs concerning to research.

The all-purpose of the present paper is to evaluate the hydrological behavior of some real experimental lots of different uses and occupation. For trial, three pilot urban lots were implanted in real scale and measuring 12 (twelve) meters front by 30 (thirty) meters depth each one, reproducing the urban standard characters of coast side of Bertioga / São Paulo. One lot was kept in natural conditions, with no edification; another one got 75% of its area, related to floor and edification, waterproofed, called common lot. The third one, identical to the conventional lot and called sustainable, got two microreservoirs (with total useful volume of 1,5m³) installed on its inside. The lots were grounded elevating their land level on 0,6m, and the lots soil and grounding characterized on their granulometria. The precipitation was continuously recorded, minute by minute, with a pluviograph installed on central lot. The effluent outflows were individually measured with a triangular spillway with fine walls, lab calibrated. The visual analysis of the hydrograms concludes that the convencional lot responds much faster than others, for its greater outflow peeks and smaller ascending time. The presence of micro reservoir on sustainable lot has considerably reduced outflows related to conventional one, with a consequently sensible reduction of outflowing coefficient of superficial outflow average of 0,72 (conventional lot) to 0,10 (sustainable lot). The delay time of conventional lot was mostly third part of sustainable lot s time because of micro reservoirs effect.

This work reports the study of a surprising plant microorganism relationship, involving the plant Sapindus saponaria, which is rich in antigungal saponins, and an endophyte fungus isolated from the pericarpe of the fruits collected in the host plant, and identified as Xylaria sp. The main objective of this work was to understand the survival mechanism of this fungus in such inhospitable ambient. It was found that this fungus biotransforms the structure of the saponins present in S. saponaria, making it less toxic, allowing the fungus to survive in the plant tissue. The reaction involved in this survival mechanism was a hidroxilation at ring C of the aglicone skeleton of saponins present in S. saponaria. This study also had as objective the stablishment of a fast method for the isolation and identification of saponins and ASOG (Acyclic Sesquiterpene Oligoglycosides) present in the plant s fruits. For the isolation of these compounds, the Sephadex® LH-20 column showed to be very efficient and the mass spectrometry technique (ESI-MS) was used as a rapid method of identification of this substances. The Xylaria sp. fungus was cultivated in synthetic mediums for the isolation of secondary metabolites. The microorganism showed a great potential for the production of several compounds, especially the isocoumarins. The analytical tools used to monitor all the experiments reported here comprises chromatographic and spectrometric techniques as HPLC, GC, open column chromatography, MS and MS/MS, 1D NMR and 2D NMR. Mechanisms of fragmentation were tentativelly suggested for all compounds studied by mass spectrometry.

For the past years, wholesaling has been stimulated by a series of changes in its traditional activities. Through a deeper involvement with marketing strategies, wholesaling has included the management of own brands to its activities. However, academic literature s references include mostly inferences about own brands strategies in retailing. Therefore, wholesaling does not have the proper focus to evidence its involvement with own brands strategy. The purpose of this dissertation is to identify and analyze the marketing elements that influence the management of wholesaling own brands, and to evidence advantages and disadvantages that some of the most important Brazilian s wholesalers face when they decide to introduce own brands. First of all, a theory reference is developed, including some issues related to own brands, such as marketing strategies development, description of the main elements of marketing strategy and the development of own brands strategy. During the empirical research, a multi-case study with wholesalers and industries that supply own brands is developed. The aim of the interviews with the wholesalers is to identify the elements of marketing strategy that influence the management of own brands strategies. To do so, managers responsible for own brands in three Brazilian wholesalers are interviewed. The companies were chosen because they concentrate the higher level of own brands development in Brazilian wholesaling. The industries are interviewed to corroborate the process of own brands suppliers selection and evaluation. Managers of two industries, both of them responsible for the supplying agreements with wholesalers, were interviewed. These interviews focused only issues concerning the selection and evaluation process. As a result of the research, it is possible to identify the main elements of marketing that influence wholesalers own brands management, the advantages and disadvantages (or difficulties) of this strategy, as well as to understand the importance of suppliers selection and evaluation process for the effectiveness of own brands strategy. The information allowed the inference of some critical and fundamental elements for the management of own brands strategy in wholesaling. Besides that, the dissertation also contributes for the development of future researches that may consolidate the construction of a broader knowledge about own brands in wholesaling.

It is presented the development of a liquid chromatography-UV-tandem mass spectrometric method for spiroquinazolinic alkaloids analyses in a variety of matrices where the fungus Eupennicilium sp. was cultivated. Sample preparation was conducted using a solid-phase extraction stratergy. These rare alkaloids were isolated from Eupenicillium sp an endophitic fungi obtained from Murraya paniculata (RUTACEAE). The fungus when cultivated in corn and rice subtracts produces spiroquinazolines alkaloids that exhibit high important activities, mostly analgesic. The structures of these alkaloids are formed by a sequence of amino acids similar to these carbazolic alkaloids produced by Murraya plants, which might explain some aspects of the microrganism-plant interaction. The analytical methodology was used in experiments to determine the amount of these alkaloids produced over cultivativation time. Biogenesis investigation was performed to obtain data useful to increase alkaloid production. Three unprecedented spiroquinazoline alkaloids were identified and characterized using 1D and 2D RMN together with MS and MSMS experiments.

This research presents the application of the Strategic Manufacturing Management Paradigm (SMMP) identification method and the most appropriate SMMP for an organization in the three main footwear areas of the state of São Paulo: Franca, Birigui and Jaú. This method was developed by Godinho Filho e Fernandes (2006a). The research procedure used was survey. Thirty companies were selected using random probabilistic sampling, where 10 of them were interviewed in each studied area. Only 29 companies that composed the sample participated in the research. Based on the identification of the used SMMPs, it was verified that most of the companies didn t have strategic focus, which was elucidated by cases of inconsistency among ends and means. The SMMPs identified in some companies were: Responsive manufacturing and Mass customization. During the identification of the ideal SMMPs, it was observed that most of the companies focused non-coherent objectives due to the turbulence of the market in which they are inserted into. Amongst the SMMPs considered appropriate to some companies, the following could be identified: Responsive Manufacturing/ Mass Customization and Mass Customization/Agile Manufaturing. This dissertation presents contributions for the Production Management literature, by means of the identification of the possible types of strategic integration in an organization, as for the Brazilian shoe factoring market, supplying relevant information for a field that is in crisis, besides motivating new researches on the researched theme.

This doctoral thesis intends to analyze the main concepts of mental disease and the problematic relation between the organicism and the psychodinamism throughout the history of the psychopathologic ideas that came to constitute the scientific clinical psychiatry, from Philippe Pinel, in the beginning of XIX century, until the chaos of the no theoretical pretense descriptive of the official nosography of the end of XX century and beginning of XXI century (I.C.D.-10). The epistemologic conflict between the psychogenic and organogenic doctrines had resulted in many frustrated attempts of solution. The hermeneuticsynthetic psychopathology of Carl Gustav the Jung (1875-1961) and the phenomenonstructural psychopathology of Eugène Minkowski (1885-1972) stand out among the most promising proposals of XX century. The basic concepts of these authors keep an essential similarity, besides belonging to schools have different thoughts. However, their theorization go in parallel thinking about a psychopathologic formularization psychorganodinamic that is similar in its most essential principles. The antimechanist solution, anti-atomicist and antireductionist, of both, remind the current biological psychiatry that the desired and necessary consensual psychiatric theory will not do without a Metapsychopatology of the psychiatry that consider the irreducible biopsychosocial complexity of the normal or pathological human being. And, neither psychiatry will gain a satisfactory nosographic formularization while they don t reveal the mysteries of the complex etiology of mental disorders.

Using a blank compound as reference and brass coated steel tire cords with 64 and 68.2 % of cooper content, it was studied the effect of the ingredients cobalt and the HMMM-resorcinol system, and the vulcanization temperature on the rubber-brass adhesion. Samples were studied as new (original), aged in oven, steam and humidity environments. Mechanical properties, vulcanization kinetics and cross linking density were analyzed in the compounds. The ingredients, as well as the vulcanization temperature, showed a strong effect on the compounds properties, however, it did not show relation with the adhesion. The steel tire cords were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy (EDS), being evident variations on brass deposition, which can lead to adhesion loss. The adhesion of the samples was evaluated by means of the force and coverage by pull out tests from a rubber block. The results, for each condition, were statistically analyzed. For the original condition, the steel cord with high content of cooper (68.2 %) showed higher adhesion values. In oven, only the effect of HMMM-resorcinol system was statistically significant. Aging in steam, the most aggressive condition, showed that the use of cobalt was effective in the maintenance of the adhesion level. Aging with humidity showed that the adhesion promoters cobalt and HMMM-resorcinol system were beneficial to the rubber-brass adhesion. The cords surface, after the extraction of the rubber, was evaluated by SEM and EDS. The formation of a CuxS structure, responsible for rubber-brass adhesion was evident. In general, it was not found a unique combination which guaranteed the maximum adhesion level for the studied conditions, however, the better balance was achieved using a steel cord with 64 % of cooper, the adhesion promoters cobalt and HMMM-resorcinol system, and the vulcanization temperature of 150 ºC.

In the last decade there has been a growth on society concern with topics related to epics, citizenship, human rights, economic development and social belonging. In this sense, all kinds of organizations are more and more worried on reaching and showing performance related to environment protection, socially and economically correct, controlling the impacts of its relations, processes, products and services in society according to its politics and its social responsibility goals. However, many doubts concerning what really is socially responsible in practical application, therefore in its speech. Although there has been indicators that point to the industries mentality and posture change related to its engagement in the social space. The reasons which promoted it are still doubtful. Probably this reasons must achieve specific shaping in specific realities as well, so the importance of the study: a contributions on the comprehension as how the industrial social responsibility is configured in the Sao Paulo´s orange-juice complex. Thus, the objective of this work is to design a framework of industrial social responsibility in the citric section of the São Paulo State and therefore there has been developed a case study of three different important agents in this reproductive chain. Throughout this study there is a search to build up an analysis in the comprehension of this issues on what concerns to be socially responsible, approaching and existent dynamic in the sector environmental institution that reinforces the adoption and the restructuring of acts related to industrial social responsibility. As a result it has been notice that the socially responsible acts are acts which has been an adaptation from pressure received by each agent, as well as they are isomorphic within each segment since it can be verified the existence of realities, power and legitimacy very different among the agents. It has also been noticed that the activities has been well accepted by human resources professionals and that the industrial social responsibility has been taken as a management tool.

We live in the context of a global society, in which changes are demanded in all aspects in the search for a better quality of life for mankind. In addition, there is an increase in the proportion of excluded individuals and thus there has been much discussion on social inclusion in political and educational debates. The school, as a segment of society, has also been facing the task to offer a better quality of education to all children. In the specific case of children with special needs, there has also been discussion within the concept of inclusive schools, which should be open to the differences. Considering the current demands, improvements in the qualifications of school teams is fundamental to assure the necessary transformation of schools, and the national research on school inclusion has been contributing to the problem of formation and work of teachers. However, it should be remembered that the leader role played by the school director has been identified as a primary factor for the achievement of increasingly inclusive schools. Thus, considering that this role played by the director requires new knowledge, attitudes and abilities to deal with the current conditions and emerging tendencies in general and special education, the present study aimed to develop, establish and evaluate a training program for directors of child schools, from the standpoint of school inclusion. Initially, a study was conducted on the professional profile of the school directors and their needs, by observation of the work routine of a director for four months, comprising 21 visits for observation and analysis of school records (school planning and statute). Thereafter, several people were interviewed (the director, the teacher of a student with special needs, the parents of this student, and the pedagogue assisting this child at a specialized center) with a view to achieve more knowledge on the role played by the director from the standpoint of each of these individuals. Based on the collected data and concepts developed by authors in the field of school management and inclusion, a closed questionnaire was prepared and sent to all 60 directors of municipal child schools from the city of Bauru, to collect further information on the training needs of these professionals to allow them to work as managers of inclusive schools. The results of this first study indicated that, even though they have legal knowledge on the policies of school inclusion, in practice the role played by the director seemed to be characterized by emphasis on bureaucratic issues of the school, centralization of decisions and lack of knowledge on how to respond to the educational demands of individuals with special needs. Following, a training program was developed and established for 41 directors of child schools. The program comprised theoretical issues on the problem of inclusion and practical activities of management and solution of problems related to the actual difficulties of daily work. The program was evaluated by: a) tests for group resolution of the same problem situations, at onset and completion of the program, b) personal reports on people with special needs collected before the program, c) reports based on a questionnaire with five open questions on the changes observed after the course perceived by the directors themselves, and d) a closed questionnaire on the formal aspects of the program. The results indicated that the program yielded the expected results in the perceptions and attitudes of directors, at least from their reports. Discussion was based on the conclusion that, even though such initiatives of training programs are necessary, they are not sufficient, since the transfer of changes from reports to the educational practices in the daily life of schools is not automatic, which suggests that training should go further and assure follow-up by collective work and establishment of a culture of collaboration and appreciation of human diversity. Finally, the way to change seems to be focused on the challenging role of the director, who must have a firm leadership yet simultaneously must promote collective processes of planning, organization and development of the political-pedagogical project of the school

Agile methods, through their principles and values, propose to make software development more flexible, thus satisfying the customer in a rapid and customized way. Quality has a fundamental role both in software development and in software maintenance. It is known that, for a product to have quality, guidelines have to be followed along the whole development process as well as software maintenance. Software reengineering is a solution for those systems in which maintenance grew difficult with time. Some reengineering processes use software patterns which provide success solutions for recurrent problems and, also seek agility, avoiding the waterfall process model. Application generators provide agility in software development, as they help the process automation for a certain domain. This dissertation aims to use application generators, more specifically GawCRe (Gerador de aplicações para web de Clínicas de Reabilitação web application generator for rehabilitation clinics) together with ARA (Arcabouço de Reengenharia Ágil Agile Reengineering Approach), instead of the GREN (Gestão de REcursos de Negócio Business Resource Management) framework. Through a prospective case study, conducted with four legacy systems belonging to the medical clinics domain, it has been observed that ARA supports that applications generators use, although it is necessary to make an adaptation in order to allow it. This is true even though the legacy systems domain is not the same as that of the application generator. The generator adaptation has been easier because it is specified in XML. As the code that it generates is in Java, it has been possible to use the Eclipse environment though to produce the classes diagrams necessary to future maintenance. This enforced the reengineering process adaptation so that the classes diagrams production commended to be prepared before code generation passed to be produced after that generation.

The role of the agribusiness has been extremely important in the context of the Brazilian production in terms of both economic values and employment generation. However, the agribusiness specific characteristics have not been sufficiently considered in the literature and even in the development of Production Planning and Control Systems. This thesis is an attempt to fulfill this lack. Two basic aspects were taken into consideration. First, the thesis provides a classification system that allows for identifying those enterprises according to their special characteristics. Second, the architecture of a Planning and Control System is proposed in order to address the main needs of agri-industries, which are dedicated to the raw material splitting up, such as slaughterhouses and mills. In that architecture, it is particularly taken into account demand forecasting and raw material availability restriction. Also, a rule of master production scheduling have been built taking into consideration the simultaneous generation of co-products, which can or not to be immediately needed.
