TL;DR: This article presents the use of a wireless communication technology through the ZigBee protocol, by implementing XBee S2B, which is useful in interoperable systems to monitor, control and automate different processes.
Abstract: This article presents the use of a wireless communication technology through the ZigBee protocol, by implementing XBee S2B. Wireless communication was implemented on a wind turbine prototype (i.e. wind power generation) in order to controlling variables automatically, such as: Direction of the wind, temperature, humidity and velocity engine. The XBee were conditioned using a Mega ADK Arduino card, which the signals generated were acquired by several sensors and subsequently sent wirelessly. The programming and monitoring of Arduino module with each of the variables was performed through Labview software. The study was also conducted in order to explore new technologies for wireless communication, which is useful in interoperable systems to monitor, control and automate different processes. As a result, the performance test with the wireless system was stable and data transmission was reliable.

TL;DR: In fact, el origen del tambor originates in Africa, and se remonta to the prehistoria, ejercitos conquistadores inician la colonización americana as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: Segun diversos estudios de investigacion, el origen del tambor es Africano, y se remonta a la prehistoria. El tambor llega a Europa a traves de las migraciones de africanos y moros a Europa. Posteriormente, el tambor tambien penetra en el Nuevo Mundo, cuando los ejercitos conquistadores inician la colonizacion americana. Cuando los africanos esclavizados llegan a America, exploran diversas posibilidades sonoras, convirtiendo casi cualquier objeto en tambor y en motivacion para el baile. A falta de espacios y materiales aptos para construir y tocar sus tambores originales, construyen unos mas pequenos. Tambores y bailes se van blanqueando gradualmente, es decir, adaptando a los salones y a las gentes, hasta conseguir la aceptacion que tienen hoy en dia en la sociedad

TL;DR: In this article, an estudio transversal descriptivo de tipo censal en el que se aplico the Ficha de Autoexamen and Senales de Alerta de Respiracion Oral -FASARO, el cuestionario de Berlim para ronquido, la escala de somnolencia de Epworth and el indice de calidad del sueno de Pittsburgh a 20 adultos and adultas mayores institucionalizados.
Abstract: INTRODUCCION: El desarrollo del estudio giro en torno a la pregunta de investigacion: ?Cual es la prevalencia de Sindrome de Apnea Obstructiva de Sueno - SAOS en una poblacion adulto mayor? METODOS: Estudio transversal descriptivo de tipo censal en el que se aplico la Ficha de Autoexamen y Senales de Alerta de Respiracion Oral - FASARO, el cuestionario de Berlim para ronquido, la escala de somnolencia de Epworth y el indice de calidad del sueno de Pittsburgh a 20 adultos y adultas mayores institucionalizados. RESULTADOS: El estudio demostro una alta prevalencia de trastornos de sueno en la poblacion valorada. Los instrumentos utilizados para este estudio mostraron consistencia interna y evidenciaron graficamente los grados de asociacion entre las distintas variables del analisis. ANALISIS Y DISCUSION: Los resultados de este estudio demuestran una correspondencia alta con lo reportado en la literatura cientifica, especialmente en lo concerniente a la relacion de edad mas avanzada mayores dificultades con el sueno y al sexo como factor determinante del SAOS. Por otro lado deja en evidencia la estrecha relacion entre la respiracion oral y el SAOS. CONCLUSIONES: La mayoria de los adultos mayores valorados, presentan problemas de sueno, sin embargo, no todos estan relacionados con el SAOS, por lo que se debe ahondar mas al respecto para identificar la etiologia de los problemas que aquejan a los adultos mayores.

TL;DR: In this paper, the reduction in the firing temperature of ceramic tiles according to the concentration of sodium silicate and phosphoric acid present in the formulation of mixtures of clay paste was determined.
Abstract: Objective: Determining the reduction in the firing temperature ceramic tiles according to the concentration of sodium silicate and phosphoric acid present in the formulation of mixtures of clay paste. Methods: the research was conducted using a sample of clay Guayabo geological formation of the Metropolitan Area of Cucuta. For the preparation of the samples were added to the clay three concentrations of phosphoric acid at 0.5%, 1,0% and 1,5% by weight , together with three concentrations of hydrated sodium silicate 1,0%, 2,0% and 3,0 % by weight respetivamente. The mixtures were ground dry processing and manual kneading and shaping was performed using a laboratory extruder biscuit. The produced samples were dried in a drying oven at 110 °C and sintered in an oven five maximum temperatures (650 °C, 680 °C, 700 °C, 750 °C and 880 °C). Subsequently laboratory tests were performed to determine the water absorption and cooked contraction in flexural strength of the test pieces. Results: the results allowed to state that the addition of these two additives accelerated the vitrification of the clay used, reducing the cycles and sintering temperature of the ceramic molded parts, making infer that it is an alternative in reducing the consumption of thermal energy used in the cooking process of the manufacturers of ceramic tiles. Conclusion: which influence the reduction of the environmental impact caused by emissions of CO2 and particulate matter.

TL;DR: In this paper, a new set of nuevos campos que support procesos de integracion mas intensos con repercusiones a escala internacional, ofreciendo a estudiantes y profesionales, posibilidades de unificar sobre los contenidos de los programas contables, que favorezcan proceso de formacion integral.
Abstract: Geograficamente el departamento Norte de Santander esta ubicado estrategicamente, siendo el sector fronterizo de mayor interes e importancia para la relacion bilateral, promovido y estimulado desde las regiones, Cucuta (Colombia) y San Cristobal (Venezuela), que se han consolidado como centros motrices de la economia regional-fronteriza; lo cual ha permitido que se configure el mas importante eje comercial transfronterizo en la subregion andina, donde tiene lugar uno de los procesos de integracion mas intensos con repercusiones a escala internacional. Con el fin de explorar nuevos campos que favorezcan la formacion de los profesionales del area contable, la propuesta tiende a buscar espacios de estudio local, regional y binacional, ofreciendo a estudiantes y profesionales, posibilidades de unificar sobre los contenidos de los programas contables, que favorezcan procesos de formacion integral.
