Màster de Direcció d'Entitats Asseguradores i Financeres, Universitat de Barcelona, Facultat d'Economia i Empresa, Curs: 2006-2007, Tutor: Antoni Vidiella ; Las entidades aseguradoras, debido a las modificaciones normativas, deberán establecer unas directrices escritas sobre su sistema de control interno, basado en la gestión y control de riesgos. Además deberán elaborar anualmente un informe sobre la efectividad de los procedimientos de control interno. Este trabajo trata de crear una guía que ayude a las entidades de seguros a implementar un sistema de control interno, que permita la identificación de los riesgos de la entidad y sea de apoyo para la realización del informe anual. La estructura de la tesis comienza con una ilustración de los cambios legislativos, luego se detallan una serie de principios imprescindibles para un sistema de control interno y se definen los riesgos de una compañía de vida, cómo cuantificarlos según el proyecto de Solvencia II y las medidas que se pueden adoptar para controlarlos.

In this work we present two parallel algorithms for the solution of a given least squares problem with structured matrices. This problem arises in many applications most related to digital signal processing, an example is given. Both parallel algorithms have been designed to speed–up the sequential one in a heterogeneous network of computers. They differ from the approximation followed to implement parallel algorithms on heterogeneous networks of computers known as HeHo and HoHe strategies. However, our study goes beyond the practical usefulness of our heterogeneous parallel application. One one hand, the results obtained validates the recent developed HeteroMPI as a very useful tool for programming heterogeneous parallel algorithms. On the other hand, although HeteroMPI has initially been designed to apply the HeHo strategy, we propose a way this tool can be used in the HoHe strategy. Pros and cons of the use of HeteroMPI for both strategies will be deeply study through the application example. ; Spanish Government

In this paper, we present the optimization and parallelization of a state-of-the-art algorithm for automatic classification, in order to perform real-time classification of clinical data. The parallelization has been carried out so that the algorithm can be used in real time in standard computers, or in high performance computing servers. The fastest versions have been obtained carrying out most of the computations in Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). The algorithms obtained have been tested in a case of automatic classification of electroencephalographic signals from patients. ; This work was supported by Spanish Administration (Ministerio de Economía y Competitividad) and European Union (FEDER) under grants TEC2014-58438-R and TEC2017-84743-P; and Generalitat Valenciana under grants PROMETEO II/2014/032 and PROMETEO II/2014/003. ; García Mollá, VM.; Salazar Afanador, A.; Safont Armero, G.; Vidal, AM.; Vergara Domínguez, L.

This study evaluates the drug abuse prevention needs for Spanish youth in municipalities with a population below 7,000 inhabitants in the province of Valencia, Spain. The primary goal of the project was to generate policy and to identify possible courses of drug prevention in these towns. The project utilized the basic RARE model. Grounded Theory was used to frame the qualitative analysis. Interviews with local cultural experts provided strong evidence that many specifically mandated prevention needs are not adequately covered in small municipalities. The data emphasizes the ways in which young people are critical of the prevention actions directed at them. The recommended programs emphasize (1) joint actions using youth networks, (2) educating parents to take an active role in the prevention chain, (3) extending the range and availability of leisure activities, and (4) making sure that the information campaigns are adapted to the interests of young people.
