This study aimed to highlight the interest in the analysis of the Plano Trienal´s proposals, elaborated by Celso Furtado while Plan Minister of João Goulart´s government. The plan is understood in this study as a result of the underdevelopment theory elaborated by Celso Furtado in his seminal work between the decades of 1950 and 1960, like a Economia Brasileira (1954), Perspectiva da Economia Brasileira (1958) A Pré-Revolução Brasileira (1962) and Dialética do Desenvolvimento (1964), and of his proposal of a development model guided on social justice and democracy defense. The Base Reforms would be, this way, as an adjustment of the past (anachronistic structures, economic or political, that stop the pass to development in the period) as a proposal to the future, to mold the characteristics of a society and economy out of the structural limits of the underdevelopment.

The research presented here sought to investigate a proposed educational differentiated teaching and learning called Group Interactive that exists in schools that are Learning Communities. The Interactive Group is a transformation of the class, where small heterogeneous groups, under the criteria of income, ethnicity, gender, etc. are formed. The choice of this topic is justified by the fact that we consider Interactive Groups a possible alternative way that allows students to improve school social live and also accelerate their learning. Through this practice is to realize the dialogic learning, because it is the result of different interactions that produce equal dialogue, a dialogue of equals, whose intention is reached by the consensus on the basis of claims to validity. The increase of interactions in the classroom benefits both learning and solidarity among the students, enabling them to overcome the condition of school failure. The objectives were proposed to respond how to the processes of interaction afforded by Interactive Groups occur and how they contribute to the learning of different people participating in this practice. These objectives sought to analyze the interaction processes existing in Interactive Groups, from the perspective of people involved (teachers, students, volunteers); verify the potential for interaction and dialogue between the different educational agents, aiming at maximum learning for all students; identify and analyze the learning acquired by those involved through interactive processes in this educational practice. For the development of this research two classes of grades of education of a local public school in São Carlos / SP Interactive Groups that performed weekly were accompanied. The methodology used for this research was the critical communicative research. The techniques used for data collection were communicative observations; communicative life narratives and communicative group discussions. As regards the theoretical and methodological framework, the main authors and concepts used in the analysis were: the concept of Interaction from Vygotski, Dialogical Learning from Flecha (CREA), Dialogue from Freire, and the concept of mediated activity from Leontiev. This research shows that the practice of inter-group is a tool to strengthen and accelerate the learning of children. This research provided to the Buriti Valley Learning Community an analysis of the importance of ensuring the participation of different people (cultures, ethnicities, social classes, religions, etc..) in the learning process of elementary school. The participation and interaction of the volunteers in the classroom ensures the dialogue in multicultural school, enhances values such as solidarity, facilitates and accelerates the instrumental learning of all students. The format of the dynamics provides more people within the classroom to support the work of the teacher, by increasing and improving the interactions, contributing with the increasing the opportunities for the students to learn.

Many companies from many different business sectors are beginning to implement the developments stemming from the area of supply chain management to gain competitiveness in the market. In order to contribute to the growing understanding of production management in companies that are part of supply chains, this paper aims to identify and analyze production strategies adopted by three companies in the construction industry, located in the city of São Carlos/SP and assess to what extent these production strategies identified condition and are conditioned by structural and relational characteristics of supply chains in which they operate. This is on the propositions that (1) the production strategy influences the structure and relationships of the supply chain and that, in turn, (2) the supply chain affects the production strategies adopted. Thus, using the theoretical literature on manufacturing strategy and the supply chain management were prepared scripts for conducting interviews in three companies in the construction industry selected, seeking to address issues related to the objectives and proposals mentioned. In some of the questions asked to the respondents consider specific constructions to make the information on important aspects are more easily understood. The case studies reinforce the propositions formulated: small businesses in the construction industry fell into well-established infrastructure of suppliers and have limited bargaining power to influence the behavior of its suppliers. But, depending primarily niche markets they choose, seek to define strategies to produce consistent, selecting suppliers and establishing relationships with them to meet their specific competitive priorities of production.

The present research aims at reflecting about the contemporary educational anarchist methodology from the analysis of that one in relation to the educational constructivist theories. The emphasis of this work is on methodology since the purpose is not comparing or making approaches among the educational movements uttered or defended by anarchists or any other recent educational movements. In fact, besides the historical context, the political-ideological differences that constitute anarchist and constructivist concepts are evident. Thus, firstly, it was done an explanation regarding the anarchist movement and its aspects with emphasis to that dipped into the idealism that gave rise to the educational theories anarchists worked in this text. Then was discussed the main theoretical guidelines of anarchist education and, as an example of activity in the foreign context, La Escuela Moderna, Barcelonean institution created and managed by Francisco Ferrer y Guardia in the transition from the nineteenth to the twentieth century and, in the Brazilian context, the Escolas Modernas n.1 and n.2, the homonymous Barcelonean institution that were created in São Paulo. About the three institutions, the historical context, the main guidelines and them process of opening and closing, were mentioned. Thirdly, the theories of both, New School Movement and constructivism (established in the end of the twentieth century and based on the New School Movement) were analyzed. Fourthly, approaches between the methodologies developed not only by anarchist but also by constructivist initiatives were verified without forgetting the political-ideological differences, the contemporary educational anarchist methodology was analyzed. Finally, was possible to reflect on an educational theory that, although it is utopian and apprehensive, shows to be implicitly employed in educational environment. Besides, it was possible to reflect about issues as the recent detriment of teachers role and their performance and also the double possibility of employing methodologies adapted according to the political-ideological bases of each educational conception.

This study linked the line "The scientific and human resources training in Special Education" aims to contribute to the process of inclusion, as well as the process of training teachers to work with students who have SEN. To that end, seeks to know what are the main indicators for the use of learning objects, specifically, find out if they are relevant tools to improve the process of teaching and learning of disciplinary content, with a view to Quality Education for All. The use of Information and Communication open up new perspectives for distance education supported in virtual environments accessed via the Internet, as is the case of LO. The LO are aids in the teaching and learning of disciplinary concepts. The research focus has been placed on the experiences of students, tutors and trainers from a distance learning course on Assistive Technologies of the Department of Special Education MEC for teachers working in public networks throughout the country. For the research objectives were achieved an analysis of the current spot was performed using the records of activities in the Virtual Learning Environment and the reports of the five participating classes delivered to the course coordinator taking as a basis for analysis, bibliographic studies on LO and learning for students with disabilities and Continuing Education of Teachers Distance. For the analysis were made, three categories were constructed from published studies of the areas outlined above. These categories of analysis relate to: Interactive / Feedback, Applicability of Content / Context and new learning. The results showed that in relation to the learning of disciplinary concepts could see through the studies in the literature of education, and also from the experience of participants in this study that LO may rather promote the learning of disciplinary concepts. Moreover, it was revealed that the LO contribute as tools to support teaching and student learning and as a result of Educational Inclusion of people with special needs. Regarding the process of teacher training in distance mode found in this study that this idea that pre-trial is not stated here since it was possible to see this study that the continuing training of teachers, environmental data source research, has provided the participating teachers - to get closer to the technological world and the possibility of inserting it in action in the classroom context (professional practice) - theoretical and practical, - realize the value of all students, including the disabled; - innovations in teaching strategies; - reflection in action. Essential characteristics for a solid and efficient can be achieved.

Municipal elementary schools receive most of the students from K 8th grade and the number of enrollments of students with special needs has increased nationwide as a result of the implementation of municipal policies for this area of education. Several studies about the inclusion of these students in municipal schools have been conducted with the purpose to evaluate the impact of the National Program for Inclusive Education: the right for diversity; evaluation of teacher training; understanding teachers concepts after the insertion of students with special needs in their classroom; and research on the general aspects related to the proposal of inclusion in the educational system. However, studies focusing on teachers concepts in relation to the proposal of inclusion, elaborated by the municipal office of education, are still insufficient to know the reality of more than a thousand Brazilians counties. Taking into consideration that the municipal board of education has the autonomy to elaborate such proposals whose implications are not yet thoroughly known the present study had the objective to analyze the inclusion in the context of a regional education network from the conceptions of teachers who have students with special needs in their classroom. The study was developed in the municipal school network of Vitória da Conquista, Bahia state (Brazil), more specifically in those schools with the largest number of students with special needs enrolled in regular classrooms. The methodological principle that guided this study was the qualitative approach. The research is descriptive in nature and data was collected in the field through questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. 30 municipal teachers who had students with special needs in their classrooms participated in the research. The interview script was evaluated by four judges and all interviews were recorded and later transcribed and submitted for content analysis. The results indicated hat even though the city of Vitória da Conquista is considered a regional educational center participating in the National Program of Inclusive Education since 2004, the increase in the number of enrollments of students with special needs is relatively recent; the results also show that most of these students have intellectual disability; teachers academic training is poor; the number of professionals qualified to offer services to students with special needs is small; also, lack of support to these teachers is pointed out as being one of the biggest obstacles to the realization of the inclusive education policies. It is expected that the positions and reflections of teacher participants can be seen as relevant sources for the City Board of Education - SMED, in the sense that the real educational needs of the network were found in these teacher reports. It is expected that the results bring new contributions to the process of school inclusion as well as a reflection on the pedagogical practices of the participating teachers regarding students with disabilities and that their conceptions can foster new guidelines that permeate the policies of educational inclusion of the municipality.

The present research aimed at verifying and analyzing what 9-year-old pupils from the third year of primary school used to write and say about writing production and fables, as well as the knowledge they claimed and demonstrated to have learned on writing and orality through mediations and dialogues between the educator, the pupils and the researcher. Concepts such as language, orality, reading, writing, genre, project and didactic sequence served as guidance to the research and were evidenced within a socio-historical approach based on the studies and works by Bakhtin, Vygotsky and their developments glimpsed in the current researches in the education and language fields, especially represented in the works by the Genebra Group researchers (Dolz, Schneuwly, Pasquier and Bronckart). The methodology used was the dialogic-collaborative one, since we understand that such a proposal was the best way of carrying out a study in which the participants are able to work in exchange conditions, in addition to allowing the introduction of a culture moved by common goals of transforming the school daily routine through dialogue. The data, which served as reference to our considerations, were collected during the attendance to a 60-hour course offered by the Federal University of São Carlos and aimed at first-to-fourth-year primary educators of a Municipal School. Such a course intended to provoke reflections based on readings, discussions, analyses of textual productions and work situations in the classroom with the textual production theme along with the pupils. The data obtained through this study indicated that, in the first stage of data collection, the pupils concerns focused primarily on aspects related to the writing acquisition system, which was evidenced by, for instance, their effort to getting to know the letters, the order of the letters, the correct spelling, among others, rather than on aspects related to textual production. Even though rewriting presented elements which contemplated characteristics of the fables (genre adopted in our research as the axle to the considerations), such characteristics did not appear in the pupils speeches, which therefore did not allow comparison criteria. It was observed that, in the first stage of data collection, they used to do their classroom tasks without asking the whys, consequently generating an activity more directed to filling in time rather than constructing knowledge. However, after the mediations provided by the research between educator - pupils, pupils - pupils and pupils researcher, the data indicated that the teaching and learning situations based on dialogue strengthened the arguments and counter-arguments of the pupils, thus helping them to better elaborate and construct their thoughts and linguistically structure sentences. Turning the pupils into protagonists of their learning processes also made them co-responsible and aware of their knowledge acquisition process, because this way they had very clearly defined what they should know by the end of the didactic sequence. The collected data also signalized that the instruments and support material selected by the educator are also mediators of the pupils knowledge; therefore, the choices each educator makes also imply the pupils learning. By the end of the process, the pupils demonstrated acquisition of the characteristics of the genre fables, both orally and in writing, which proves that the work developed with textual production, focused on genre and organized based on didactic sequences, supported the pupils learning. We also noted that reading, retelling, rewriting and collective reviews should be stimulated and worked on since kindergarten in order to provide pupils with tools they can use to become competent readers and writers in the long run.

Mensalão ( big monthly payment a fee out of the law which was paid for some politicians in Brazil): what is the functional argument for this meaning? How had have this expression brought about history, memory and meaning? Motivated by something that mobilized politics and the Brazilian media, we tried to answer this question from a linguistic position which is connected to the Semantics of an Event (GUIMARÃES, 2002), specially about the relation between the theory and the events foretell, a place that brings sense in the language. Thus, the meaning of a designation is prohibited inside the event and in the period of nowadays; on the other hand it mobilizes the originality of the language. The factual, as is presented by Gadet e Pêcheux (2004), on the other hand, induces the fault, the misunderstanding and the misinterpretation which the subjects cannot control; the functional of the language makes to understand the words and the meanings, but they are tensioned by a dispute inside the place they are originated. Therefore, for this work, we picked out sequences of headlines and reports from O Estado de São Paulo Brazilian newspaper, between 22th and 27th August, 2007, which was the period when the mensalão practices were being judged in STF (Brazilian Higher Federal Court), with the main objective is to show how this media identified the neologism between rows and rows. This study will use for the analysis the concepts of argumentation from Ducrot (1973), to whom the language does not inform, but shows the arguments that make us to produce specific conclusions, and of abstract, according to Guimarães (2004, 2005, 2007), in its semantic domain determination.

The childhood epilepsy is a chronic neurological disorder, most common in childhood, associated with profound psychosocial limitations in daily life in epileptic children. These limitations may be related to the characteristics of the disease as the age of onset, severity and type of epilepsy and the lack of information that is still as one of the factors that most contribute to the stigma and discrimination. The association between the variables of epilepsy and the presence of wrong beliefs can lead to decreased academic performance and the presence of problems of psychosocial adjustment. This study aimed to identify and compare beliefs about epilepsy in parents and teachers of epileptic children and to verify the insertion of these children in regular schools and special. To achieve the purposes of this research were carried out two studies: Study 1 aimed to complete the process of transcultural adaptation of the instrument The Epilepsy Beliefs and Attitudes Scale (EBAS) - Adult Version and submit a version in Portuguese for use in Brazil and Study 2 aimed to investigate the number of epileptic children who attended regular schools and special cities involved in the research, compare the school attendance among children with epilepsy and children with typical development or other chronic diseases, identifying variables of epilepsy related to type of school that children attend, in addition to compare the beliefs of parents and teachers of children with epilepsy. Participated in Study 1, 17 toplevel professionals who have made the conceptual, of items, operational and semantics equivalence, and 545 adults who answered the Brazilian version of EBAS - Adult Version whose answers were considered to analyze the psychometric characteristics of the instrument including Alpha Cronbach's, factor analysis and test-retest reliability. The results showed that the concepts learned by the instrument were considered relevant to our culture and its items as appropriate to their ability to represent these concepts in the target population, and provide good semantic equivalence between the final version in Portuguese and original. The index of consistency for the overall scale was 0.89, the factorial analysis confirmed the original structure with three subscales (neurological, metaphysics and environmental/psychophysics) and test-retest showed that the instrument is reliable. Were participants of Study 2, 205 people, with 91 children aged between 7 and 14 years, 56 parents and 56 teachers, and 2 teenagers involved with the pre-test. Seven instruments were used to collect data: 1) Data sheets of identification and characterization of the family, the child and the teacher; 2) Brazil Criterion of Economic Classification 2008; 3) Classification of Engel; 4) Data sheet to record the frequency the school year; 5) Brazilian Version of EBAS - Adult Version. The data obtained by means of the instruments were analyzed descriptively and compared, using the Statistic Software Minitab - Version 12.1, using the Student t test, Mann-Whitney, chi-square and logistic regression. The results showed that children from special schools when compared to children from regular schools had severe disease and higher frequency of crises, beginning early and duration of epilepsy, and consume a greater number of medicines and make school attendance lower. Logistic regression analysis showed that age of onset and severity of illness, number of drugs used and the presence of comorbidities were related to the type of school that children attend. No differences were found statistically significant between the beliefs of parents and teachers, though both have made more inappropriate beliefs and attitudes than adequate to the epileptic child. It is concluded that this study helped to identify issues related to the processes of inclusion of children with epilepsy, identifying difficulties and limitations that interfere with the schooling of these students as well as the choice of attending school.

Hybrid materials present interesting combination of the physical and chemical properties of organic and inorganic compounds in a single material that is widely employed in distinct technological applications. In the present work, silver and gold colloids were prepared by means of the Turkevich Method, and hybrid materials were obtained through the surface functionalization of gold nanoparticles with organochalcogen organic molecules (S, Se and Te). The as obtained nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray diffraction, ultravioletvisible absorption spectroscopy and scanning and transmission electron microcopies, while nanoparticles functionalization was observed by means of Xray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). During the synthesis, it was verified the influence of pH, temperature, reaction time and ammonium concentration, and results indicated that the reducing species concentration in solution is determined by the pH, influencing in the saturation, nucleation and particles growth process. After the nucleation stage, it was noted that the addtion of ammonium can stabilize the silver colloids, resulting in average particle sizes from 1.6 to 2.2 nm with narrow size distributuin. The XPS analyses revealed that the dibutil-diselenol molecules were more stable in the oxidation processes than of dibutil-ditiol and dibutil-ditellurol, presenting oxidized molecules of 6%, 34% and 92%, respectively.

From a diagnosis according to which there is a gap between common people and the research and development institutions, some studies in the public communication of science aim to gather solutions for reducing it a process in which journalism may be a key tool. This paper aims to analyze science reportages published in three magazines Ciência Hoje, Pesquisa Fapesp and piauí that have narrative aspects. Since the press uses many strategies to bring its public closer to science, we assume that the immersion reportage, using literary techniques, may be a way to achieve it. This research explores the narrative and discourse construction in science journalism and how the pieces handle polyphonic discourses, in order to identify literary journalism characteristics, diversity of themes and approaches to science, as well as to select some procedures which science reporters may use in newscovering. Our corpus was analyzed in a qualitative approache according to Bakhtin s discourse theories and the propositions of Science, Technology and Society and public communication of science studies, in order to promote a better interaction between science and other forms of knowledge, and also to bring a constructive view of science.

This study aimed to characterize aspects of manufacturing, innovation and socio/economic data from the Musical Instruments Industry (MII) in the state of São Paulo in the period 2003- 2008. The study was justified because the so called "entertainment industry", especially the "music industry" has brought substantive economic and social gains. It was aimed to contribute to the understanding of the structure and size of the productive chain of the music economy in Brazil, particularly through the analysis of MII in the state of São Paulo. Data analysis was primarily qualitative since the research was an exploratory and descriptive type. Data from the MII were obtained from two sources: (a) a secondary, drawn from public governmental databases (MDIC/SECEX/DEPLA and ALICE-WEB) and private associative entities (ANAFIMA and ABEMUSICA) and (b) other primary research, produced through non-probabilistic and non-parametric sample, conducted with population N = 26 companies, producing/building traditional musical instruments in the state of Sao Paulo until the year 2008. The field study, type survey was used to obtain data from the population in the period of December 2008 to January 2009 with the following instruments: a semi-structured questionnaire (electronic/printed) and informal visits (observations and field diaries). Elapsed phase of data collection, the raw data were processed and analyzed via spreadsheets with Excel software, to then be converted into frequency tables and relevant graphs. The analytical methods used were based on descriptive statistics and descriptive and exploratory analysis. The proposed objectives for socio/economics, manufacturing and product innovation aspects have been met. The results indicate that the MII in the State of São Paulo is composed of Micro, Small and Medium companies with: (1) an innovative low rate of innovation provided by the lack of investment in R&D; (2) an absence of forms of cooperation in innovation product and (3) a lack of information about Manufacturing Support Systems. The research also indicates that brazilian national public policies are rare and do not support a more competitive MII at the national or even global scope. This research helps to better understand the MII in the State of São Paulo, and can help formulate policies and actions that may leverage its development and progress.

This research aims to analyze the meanings attributed to formation and knowledge usesacquired through the Land Pedagogy, by professionals who have worked with the MST(landless movement) in Sao Paulo State. For that, it was necessary to diagnose how manypeople graduated in this course, who fits in this working context, as well as gathering someinformation about their lives in order to identify their social origins, schooling, professionalcourse, participation conditions in MST, information about the Pedagogy Course they did,performance after graduation and their expectations for the future. To reach this study, wehave researched through literature and documents and performed semi-structured andstructured interviews with participants. For the analysis, we used data triangulation andconsensual validation. We have found eleven women who graduated in Education for RuralCommunities University Course Program and who have worked in Sao Paulo. Although therewere common points among them, for all come from poor backgrounds, there were alsodiverse life stories. Many of them migrated several times searching for better livingconditions and were employed in unskilled jobs which required no technical qualifications.The commitment with the struggle for land and Land Education is the common elementpresent in all stories, but the motivations which have led the participants to MST are quitedifferent. They have found through their social movement militancy a way to build referencesof life and sociability. The participants attended the Land Pedagogy course at Uijui, Unemat,Iterra/UERGS and Unioeste and all interviews positively accessed the education level offeredin it, in both political and educational aspects. Some of these professionals work in theMetropolitan Sao Paulo region, Promissão, Iaras Pontal and at Escola Nacional FlorestanFernandes. Among the others, two of them work outside São Paulo State, one of them inParaíba State e the other one in Mozambique, all of them developing activities for the MST.Among the participants, only one of them gave up militancy recently, although she hascontributed to the educational department over almost ten years. The other participants stillcontribute with the regional, state or national educational department. They develop a varietyof functions, taking more attention to the formal MST courses which are assumed by most ofthem. In Sao Paulo, none of them took the school teaching task because of the difficulties ofparticipation in these institutions and their personal political activity priority demanded by theMST in the state. Concerning the outlook for the future, all of them had an optimistic forecastseeking for projects linking all aspects of their personal lives, as women, mothers, rural settledand militants. As a result of this study, the data analysis identified that the meanings attributedto graduation are: increased schooling, qualified studies, pedagogical and political education,militancy appreciation, performance qualification and an established relation betweenformation or studies and performance or practice. Summarizing, we conclude that the usesand meanings attributed to Land Pedagogy graduation by our participants militants at MSTrefer to the maintenance of their contribution to this social movement. Therefore, we believethat the intention of the MST when leading them for the course was promoting the training ofstaff.

Family relationships acquired fundamental importance in the labor process of the coffee economy of the "new" west of São Paulo, but it is not yet known systematic study on how they acted in the occupational structure of Italian and Brazilian blacks. Through consultation with a municipal census and police investigations, this study has as its purpose the analysis of family configuration and perceptions about the family between Italian and Brazilian blacks coffee plantation located in the San Carlos during the turn of the nineteenth century to the twentieth century. Based on the idea that markets are social constructs, we tried to help understand the historical formation of the free labor market in question. At first, it was perceived through the examination of data on family configuration of blacks and Italians, the exercise of greater control by the Italians, to the residence of married children with families. This may demonstrate that they possessed a family project more consolidated around the colonato. We were able to delineate the moral assumptions also similar in the speeches of both categories studied. It was evident, however, the fact of experience around these assumptions to be quite different between them. The process of racialization of the period covered relegated to black representation contrary to morality family seen as conducive to the free labor market. It is believed that, together with the further consolidation of the colonato as a family project among Italians, this pre-concept with the family morality of african descent is crucial to explain the positioning of this social category in the labor market free of coffee economy of São Carlos.

It is possible that the written language is influenced by words and/or expressions as well as graphic or semiotic elements, which are present in interactions in virtual environments (relationship sites, instant chats, e-mails, etc). As school is the privileged place for the acquisition and improvement of the written language, this dissertation aims at observing how the internet can interfere in texts produced by students. Based on a previously collected corpus, this research has as its mains objectives: 1) describe the lexicon used by elementary school students from two schools around São Carlos (SP), observing more frequent words and/or expressions, as well as the least current ones but which reveal a rich semantic content; 2) analyse the interference of internet language in the students´ written production; 3) suggest proposals for class work, considering the influence of communication in virtual environments (the internet). The corpus contains 300 compositions and was created as follows: each student (11 to 15 years old) of a private and a public elementary schools was asked to write two compositions. These should be of two different textual genres, which were chosen according to the research interest: a letter and an essay. It is believed that these 300 texts, although they constitute only a sample, can be very representative, since they represent public and private students and also treat two different textual genres. The corpus, collected between October and November 2006, was typed in .txt (Notepad) format, in a way it could be accessible for manipulation by automatic textual processors. Typing followed previously determined transcription patterns in a way it could preserve the texts particularities as standard language deviations, drawings, abbreviations and symbols occurrence. After that, all the corpus manipulation was carried out with the help of Word Smith Tools and Unitex. Regarding the theoretical aspects, this research is based on the concept of discursive genre from Bakhtin, and concerning the methodological ones, the compilation and corpus analyses proceedings suggested by Corpus Linguistics were followed.

In this work we treat firstly what we call the double Caldeira-Leggett model, which consists on the approach to the dynamics of two dissipative harmonic oscillators via Feynman-Vernon theory. We derived and solved the associated master equations in two different situations where i) each oscillator is coupled to its own reservoir and ii) both oscillators are coupled to the same reservoir. Finally we analyzed the decoherence process of entangled states prepared in both oscillators. Next, we treat the problem of quasi-perfect state transfer (QPST) in networks of dissipative harmonic oscillators. In this context, we have presented two different protocols for QPST: the first based in the detuning between the frequencies of the emitter and receiver oscillators regarding that of the transmitter oscillators and the second consisting in the use of what we call a decoherence quasi-free subspace (DQFS). To this end, we derived the regime of parameters enabling the emergence of DQFS. In both protocols we verified that QPST processes occur by means of a mechanism, similar to the tunneling effect, i. e., the excitations of the state to be transferred populate only virtually the transmission channel. Finally, regarding quantum open systems, we present the phenomenon that we call spontaneous recoherence of states. Through this phenomenon, we verified that the reservoir only shuffle the information of the system, instead of erasing it. The password to retrieve the original information consists of the knowledge of the initial state itself and its associated pure basis

Due to the large number of functional advantages, pneumatic bioreactors have drawn attention in the biotechnology field, being more promising than stirred and aerated tank bioreactors. Parameters such as global gas hold-up (G), volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient (kLa) and average shear rate (Ym) must be considered as performance criteria of these types of bioreactors to provide a better understanding of their hydrodynamics. However, there are no works in literature which compare the performance of bioreactors in terms of shear conditions. Therefore, the aim of the present work was to apply a method proposed in recent literature to evaluate the average shear rate (Ym) in three pneumatic bioreactors of 5-dm3 working volume: bubble column, split airlift and concentric-tube airlift. The volumetric oxygen transfer coefficient (kLa) was chosen as the appropriate characteristic parameter to assess the average shear rate (Ym) in this methodology. Correlations for as a function of superficial gas velocity in the riser region (Ugs) and rheological fluid properties (consistency index, K, and flow index, n) were obtained for each model of pneumatic bioreactor studied. Moreover, correlations between G, Ugs and viscosity (μ) (for Newtonian fluids) and apparent viscosity (μap) (for non-Newtonian fluids) were performed. In general, global gas hold-up (G) was higher for non-Newtonian fluids. The Ym values estimated by the proposed methodology lay within the range of values calculated by classical correlations. The proposed correlations were utilized to predict the Ym during three Streptomyces clavuligerus cultivations carried out at the same specific air flow rate (3.5 vvm) in the different types of pneumatic bioreactors. The lowest values of related to the highest values of Ym consistency index (K) were found for the bubble column bioreactor, and the highest values of related to the lowest values of K were found for the concentric-tube airlift bioreactor. Intermediate values were found for the split airlift bioreactor. The results showed that high Ym values affect the structural health of the mycelia by rupture of the hipha.

Among the most important lexical semantic relations to the class of adjectives is antonymy, i. e., opposition of senses as in fat/thin . WordNet, a lexical database for English, both establishes semantic relationships (such as synonymy, hiperonymy, etc.) between words and presents the concept of indirect antonymy (via synonymy: obese=fat/thin) for adjectives. This type of antonymy has not been represented at WordNet.Br yet, the Brazilian Portuguese WordNet, and at Electronic Thesaurus for Brazilian Portuguese (TeP), which contains the WordNet.Br core synsets. Thus, this research aims to study the antonymy in adjectives of Brazilian Portuguese (BP), to contribute to the refinement of the TeP and of WordNet.Br s database. The study takes up the occurrences of the 100 most frequent adjectives in the Mac-Morpho corpus from the LacioWeb project, which contains newspaper articles of Folha de São Paulo of the year 1994 and has 1,167,183 tokens. The adjectives were extracted by the Unitex concordancer. The research is motivated by three questions ( when two adjectives have closely similar meanings, why do they not have the same antonym? ; if antonymy is so important, why do many descriptive adjectives seem to have no antonym? ; and how the direct antonymy can be established? ). The main objectives are: to establish a lexical network that relates direct antonymy between adjectives and indirect antonymy between the synonyms of each adjective and its antonyms and to implement them in TeP, refining the representation of antonymy.

This study had as its aim to regard, describe and understand the educational processes developed among the integrators of the vocal group "Entre Amigos" ("Among Friends"), existing at the town of Leme, in the state of S. Paulo inward. In order to accomplish this purpose, it was necessary to catch those participators' opinions, as well as hear and understand their life experiences. Such apprehension became possible through their performances in the group actions, that include interchanges of knowledges and musical activities in their various actuation spaces. The data collecting was obtained by means of photos, videos and through the searcher s participant observation, being the camp diary the principal instrument for the research. Some semi- organized interviews were also done, with open regulation, based on education and musical education authors. The registers were later valued and understood in the light of these two realms authors. Thus, the following concepts were studied and developed: social practices, educative processes, experience knowledge, conscientization, humanization and dialogical education. The results indicate six dimensions, catched in the intersubjectivity, that compose different aspects of the educative processes developed in the group context, that are: intimacy (familiarity) among friends, planning through dialogue, rehearsal routine, contextual construction of musical knowledges, repertoires choice and arrangements elaboration. Those processes are ruled essentially in two directions: the one of the human formation, and the one of the musical formation. Those ways are imbricated in the familiarity, presuppose a dialogical attitude of the participants before the knowledges, values and beliefs, and are built by means of exploitations and by actions regarded as vehicle to systematized and nonsistematized knowledges.
