Technological support for the enactment of collaborative scripted learning activities across multiple spatial locations
(Future Generation Computer Systems, 2014-02)
Computer Supported Collaborative Blended Learning (CSCBL) scripts are innovative practices that benefit from interactive devices to combine and coordinate activities occurring in different spatial locations. However, the ...
Methodological framework for the allocation of work packages in global software development
(Journal of Software: Evolution and Process, 2014-05)
Global software development in software development industry is a new aspect for many software project managers. In this scenario, the allocation of work packages among project participants is not a simple task. This ...
A Visual Analytics Method for Score Estimation in Learning Courses
(Journal of Universal Computer Science, 2015-01)
The provision of awareness is a well-known method for fostering students' self-reflection, a metacognitive skill often related to academic success and considered one of the key skills of the 21st century. Although the ...
Extending the applicability of the local and semilocal convergence of Newton's method
(Applied Mathematics and Computation, 2017-01)
We present a local as well a semilocal convergence analysis for Newton's method in a Banach space setting. Using the same Lipschitz constants as in earlier studies, we extend the applicability of Newton's method as follows: ...
The effects of a pilates-aerobic program on maximum exercise capacity of adult women
(Revista Brasileira de Medicina do Esporte, 2017-06)
In order to compare the differences of a Pilates-Aerobic intervention program on physiologic parameters such as the maximum heart rate (HRmax), relative maximal oxygen consumption (relative VO2max) and absolute (absolute ...
Analyzing best practices on Web development frameworks: The lift approach
(Science of Computer Programming, 2015-05)
Choosing the Web framework that best fits the requirements is not an easy task for developers. Several frameworks now exist to develop Web applications, such as Struts, JSF, Ruby on Rails, Grails, CakePHP, Django, and ...
Association between executive function and outcome measure of treatment in therapeutic community among cocaine dependent individuals
(Journal of Substance Abuse Treatment, 2017-07)
The aim of this study was to examine the association between baseline executive functioning and outcome measure of treatment in 226 cocaine dependent individuals who initiated treatment in therapeutic communities TCs. The ...
Can symptoms help in differential diagnosis between substance-induced vs independent psychosis in adults with a lifetime diagnosis of cocaine use disorder?
(Psychiatry Research, 2016-08)
The main goal of this study it is explore the psychopathological differences between IPD and SIPD in a sample of 125 adults with a lifetime diagnosis of cocaine disorder recruited from treatment setting and through street ...
Improved local convergence analysis of the Gauss-Newton method under a majorant condition
(Computational Optimization and Applications, 2015-03)
We present a local convergence analysis of Gauss-Newton method for solving nonlinear least square problems. Using more precise majorant conditions than in earlier studies such as Chen (Comput Optim Appl 40:97-118, 2008), ...
New improved convergence analysis for the secant method
(Mathematics and Computers in Simulation, 2016-01)
We present a new convergence analysis, for the secant method in order to approximate a locally unique solution of a nonlinear equation in a Banach space. Our idea uses Lipschitz and center-Lipschitz instead of just Lipschitz ...
