Este trabajo presenta la Economía del Bien Común en el ámbito municipal. Para ello se describe qué es un Municipio del Bien Común y las cinco estrategias propuestas para alcanzarlo: creación de asambleas democráticas, aplicación del Balance del Bien Común Municipal, promoción de la Economía del Bien Común en las organizaciones, creación del Índice del Bien Común Municipal y participación en la creación de una Región del Bien Común. El modelo tiene una vocación de transformación real de todo el sistema económico, fundamentando su construcción en la democracia y a partir de una red desde el ámbito local. La Economía del Bien Común trata de crear los incentivos para que la actividad económica esté orientada hacia el Bien Común, entendido como la promoción de los valores humanos de la dignidad humana, solidaridad, sostenibilidad, justicia social y la democracia y transparencia. Para lograrlo plantea su medición mediante el balance del bien común y las modificaciones legales para que las empresas, y otras organizaciones cooperen para la generación de biencomún, en lugar de competir por la maximización del beneficio. Por ello, este trabajo sostiene que la Economía del Bien Común concebida a escala municipal, proporciona un marco completo y coherente de análisis desdedonde abordar el desarrollo local. La presentación del marco teórico de la Economía del Bien Común en el ámbito municipal pretende crear un aporte de síntesis útil a profesionales de la investigación y los profesionales delámbito municipal.

The literature pays little attention to non-linear models, especially regarding dimensions such as organizational culture. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to test the role of hierarchical distance in the relationship between HRM practices and social processes. With a sample of 102 Spanish firms and using partial least squares structural equation modeling assessed this relationship. Results suggested mediation of hierarchical distance between HRM practices and social processes. Such results recommend that HR managers should consider hierarchical distance more carefully especially when creating HRM practices to improve relationships among employees. Thus, the politics of commitment function better when organizations are more horizontal and when tasks are commonly delegated, managers question employees frequently prior to making decisions, discussions are encouraged, and social relationships – both in and out of work – are valued, appear to provide the most benefit regarding competitive advantages generated through HRM practices

The question of delocation in main industrial regions across the EU is approached here, and its effects on job losses estimated. Seventy five regions are selected following the double criteria of size of the manufacturing industries and high per capita income levels. Delocation affected half of them in the period 2000-2005 when competition in the international markets rose and is of higher intensity in most of the British, French and Italian regions although its aggregate effect on employment seems to have been offset by growth in the other sectors. On the other hand, regions located in the continental area with more market potential have the highest concentration of location effects. Therefore delocation has changed the location of European manufacturing industry, benefitting those latter regions and perhaps bringing higher spatial concentration. ; En este trabajo se evalúa la incidencia de la deslocalización, en términos de empleo afectado, en las principales regiones industriales de la Unión Europea, confrontando lo ocurrido en cada una de ellas con lo acontecido en el plano nacional. Los resultados obtenidos, relativos al periodo 2000-2005, muestran que los efectos de deslocalización han sido especialmente intensos en regiones situadas en Francia, Reino Unido e Italia, en tanto que las regiones finesas y algunas de las alemanas y holandesas son las que presentan efectos de localización de mayor magnitud.

RESUMENEste artículo analiza el comportamiento de los tipos de cambio entre España y Gran Bretaña durante el siglo XVIII; en concreto, de los tipos de cambio en el mercado de Londres sobre tres ciudades españolas, entre los años 1699 y 1826. Tras una breve exposición del funcionamiento del sistema monetario español y de la determinación de los tipos de cambio, estudiamos hasta qué punto el tipo de cambio respondía a variables fundamentales, utilizando dos modelos teóricos generalmente aceptados. Los resultados sugieren que la paridad de poder adquisitivo se cumplió durante el siglo XVIII, y que el tipo de cambio se movía de forma paralela a los diferenciales de inflación. Al final del siglo aparecen desviacio-nes de la paridad de poder adquisitivo, que atribuimos a alteraciones en el tipo de cambio real causadas por fluctuaciones en el comercio bilateral entre España y Gran Bretaña y, quizá, a diferenciales de productividad.

Costa Rica en 1996 establece la Ley Forestal 7575 con el propósito de impulsar nuevas estrategias que coadyuvarán al desarrollo del sector forestal. Esta Ley envuelve un periodo de tres décadas de políticas forestales e introduce un pago a los propietarios privados de bosques o nuevas plantaciones forestales, con el objetivo de compensar los servicios ambientales que sus propiedades proveen a la sociedad en general. Este estudio desarrolla herramientas de valoración económica para la creación o renegociación de acuerdos voluntarios con organizaciones privadas o gubernamentales. Este documento presenta loso principales resultados del análisis hidrológico y económico llevado a cabo durante el proceso de investigación, en las cuencas de los ríos Savegre, Reventazòn.Parismina, Peñas Blancas y Pejivaye. Finalmente, se introduce una serie de argumentos en torno al cobro del servicio ambiental de protección del recurso hídrico. ; In 1996 Costa Rica established the Forest Law 7575 in order to impel new strategies that will help in the development the forest sector.

To reduce the fuel consumption of large passenger aircrafts the hybrid laminar flow control (HLFC) is a key technology. For drag reduction, several million holes with diameters around 50 μm at the leading edges of the aircraft wings and stabilizers are needed. In this paper, developed laser micro drilling strategies are analysed with respect to quality aspects and machining speed for the perforation of such titanium sheets. Applied methods are the "on-the-fly" single pulse and the percussion drilling technique both using pulsed fibre lasers in single mode operation. Differences can be found of course in the applied pulse length of 200 μs respectively 100 ns by q-switching. The strategies are focused to achieve holes with deviations in diameter of less than 3 μm at machining speeds of more than 300 holes per second, whereas less than 1% of the holes should be blocked by residual melt or particles.

[ES] Thanks to the development of new technologies, virtual museums have evolved and incorporated new content with the aim of facilitating the transmission of knowledge. Clearly, with the current growth of mobile devices, it would be useful for all these elements to be accessible from this type of branch.This article carries out a study of the main languages used for the development of virtual museums and their possible adaptation for use on mobile devices. In particular, the following technologies will be assessed: Flash, VRML and X3D. The initial work carried out to adapt the Virtual Iberian Art Museum developed in previous work with the aim of displaying it on a Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1 device with an Android operating system will also be described.

In this work, high-quality FASnI3 (FA, formamidinium) lead-free perovskite thin films are successfully incorporated in a flexible polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate to demonstrate amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) and lasing. The waveguide (WG) consists of polymethylmethacrylate(PMMA)/FASnI3 bilayer deposited on a PET substrate and is properly designed to allow single-mode propagation at the photoluminescence wavelength. This geometry optimizes the excitation of the emitting FASnI3, enhances the light−matter interaction in the semiconductor thin film, provides a preferable direction for the emitted light and allows its direct outcoupling for on-chip or fiber-optic applications. As far as the authors know, ASE and random lasing are obtained for the first time in a flexible-based WG integrating a highly efficient lead-free perovskite. The high quality of the deposited films and the optimized design of the structure result in an extremely low ASE/lasing threshold in the range of 1 µJ cm−2, which is only ten times higher than that measured in the same PMMA/FASnI3 structure deposited on a rigid substrate (Si/SiO2). More interestingly, these WGs exhibit a strong polarization anisotropy for the outcoupled ASE/lasing light with a preferable transverse electric polarization. This work is the base for the future development of ecofriendly, flexible, and efficient photonic devices. ; This project received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement No 862656 (project DROP-IT) and the European Research Council (ERC) via Consolidator Grant (724424, No-LIMIT) and by the Spanish MINECO through projects no.

We extend a two-level task partitioning previously applied to the inversion of dense matrices via Gauss–Jordan elimination to the more challenging QR factorization as well as the initial orthogonal reduction to band form found in the singular value decomposition. Our new task-parallel algorithms leverage the tasking mechanism currently available in OpenMP to exploit "nested" task parallelism, with a first outer level that operates on matrix panels and a second inner level that processes the matrix either by µ -panels or by tiles, in order to expose a large number of independent tasks. We present a detailed performance analysis, including execution traces, which shows that the two-level refinement into fine grain tasks allows for an improved load balancing and delivers high performance on current general-purpose many-core processors (CPUs) from Intel and AMD. ; This research was sponsored by projects RTI2018-093684-B-I00, PID2019-107255GB andTIN2017-82972-R of Ministerio de Ciencia, Innovación y Universidades; project S2018/TCS-4423 of Comunidad de Madrid; project 2017-SGR-1414 of the Generalitat de Catalunya and the Madrid Government under the Multiannual Agreement with UCM in the line Program to Stimulate Research for Young Doctors in the context of the V PRICIT, project PR65/19-22445. ; Peer Reviewed ; Postprint (published version)

This manuscript presents a 1 year in the laboratory and 3 years In-Situ evaluation of an alkoxysilane-based consolidant containing SiO2 nanoparticles (SiO2NPs) on Ostionera stone, a biocalcarenite traditionally employed in Southwestern Spain. C ' adiz Roman Theatre was selected for In-Situ application and testing. In order to safeguard the theatre, preliminary laboratory experiments were carried out. Firstly, the compatibility and the effectiveness of the consolidant product were evaluated in the laboratory, demonstrating that the incorporation of SiO2NPs improves drying time and consolidant effect. Subsequently, the consolidant was applied In-Situ and the long-term performance was monitored over 3 years through non-destructive tests. The treatment exhibit moderate incompatibility degree (6.1) and demonstrating the long-lasting performance of the SiO2NPs-based consolidant treatment. ; 1 This work has been supported by the Spanish Government MAT2017-84228-R (MINECO/AEI//FEDER,UE) and PID2020-115843RB-I00/AEI/10.13039/501100011033.
