Development of Industry 4.0 in the Manaus Industrial Hub from priority programs / Desenvolvimento da Indústria 4.0 no PIM a partir de programas prioritários

Owner of one of the most expressive industrial hubs in Latin America, the Manaus Free Trade Zone is inserted in the context of Industry 4.0, initially through the Informatics Law of Western Amazonia and Amapá, which regulates the application of resources in research, development and innovation (RDI) in the region. The Priority Programs as vectors for the development of Industry 4.0, at the Manaus Industrial Hub, are the central objective of this study, as well as their contributions through projects, partnerships, fundraising and investments in thematic areas focused on enabling technologies that are the “backbone” of Industry 4.0. To reach the general objective, information was collected from the coordinating institution of the Priority Program for Industry 4.0 and Industrial Modernization and other coordinating institutions of the Priority Programs that aim to demonstrate trends and reflections on the implementation process and the strengthening of Industry 4.0 in the Manaus Industrial Hub, especially, based on the action of the Priority Programs.

“The Quickening Virtue”: Reiterating the Work of the Literary Text

This article pursues the reiteration of reading as a practice that circumscribes the work of the literary text. In doing so, it responds to particular assertions made in Kate Highman’s “Close(d) Reading and the ‘Potential Space’ of the Literature Classroom.” More pertinently, though, it seeks to reposition the value of reading as a vital attribute in engaging with the humanities and emphasizes that analyzing and the interpreting of the text is the practice indisputably central to the humanistic endeavor. The discussion reiterates that any ways in and through the text are available only by reading, making it necessary to encourage and inculcate it as a central objective so that the work of the text, in accordance with Attridge’s qualification of it, remains productive. Finally, it argues that situating this critical practice as a deliberate objective within the teaching of literature must be reprioritized as a matter of urgency.

Regular and Intra-Regular Semigroups in Terms of m-Polar Fuzzy Environment

The central objective of the proposed work in this research is to introduce the innovative concept of an m-polar fuzzy set (m-PFS) in semigroups, that is, the expansion of bipolar fuzzy set (BFS). Our main focus in this study is the generalization of some important results of BFSs to the results of m-PFSs. This paper provides some important results related to m-polar fuzzy subsemigroups (m-PFSSs), m-polar fuzzy ideals (m-PFIs), m-polar fuzzy generalized bi-ideals (m-PFGBIs), m-polar fuzzy bi-ideals (m-PFBIs), m-polar fuzzy quasi-ideals (m-PFQIs) and m-polar fuzzy interior ideals (m-PFIIs) in semigroups. This research paper shows that every m-PFBI of semigroups is the m-PFGBI of semigroups, but the converse may not be true. Furthermore this paper deals with several important properties of m-PFIs and characterizes regular and intra-regular semigroups by the properties of m-PFIs and m-PFBIs.

Synthesis of Antimicrobial Benzimidazole–Pyrazole Compounds and Their Biological Activities

The synthesis of new compounds with antimicrobial and antiviral properties is a central objective today in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. Benzimidazole and pyrazole compounds have remarkable biological properties, such as antimicrobial, antiviral, antitumor, analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anti-Alzheimer’s, antiulcer, antidiabetic. Moreover, recent literature mentions the syntheses and antimicrobial properties of some benzimidazole–pyrazole hybrids, as well as other biological properties thereof. In this review, we aim to review the methods of synthesis of these hybrids, the antimicrobial activities of the compounds, their correlation with various groups present on the molecule, as well as their pharmaceutical properties.

Paysage et identité. Ambiguïtés et ambivalences des images

"The central objective of this article is to raise questions about the relationships between identity, imaginary and landscape, which occur both at the individual and collective levels and which manifest themselves both in the body and in the landscape. Supported in different fields of knowledge related to the subject, such as anthropology, philosophy, psychology, sociology, we seek to highlight the instabilities, ambiguities and ambivalences responsible for the wealth of meanings and contradictions that such relationships present."

Essentials public health functions and public health genomics in Ecuador

Aim: This paper aims to analyze the EPHF in MG in Ecuador as a framework for integrating it into clinical practice. It also aims to contribute to the scientific and social debate on the MG role, considering it the most advanced science field today. Context: the Essentials Public Health Functions (EPHF) are actions for specific purposes necessary to achieve the central objective of Public Health (PH), which is to improve, promote, protect, and restore the population's health through collective action. Medical Genetics (MG) and Genomics are still in construction between public policies, especially in developing countries, and deserve an in-depth approach in this context. Discussion: We understand collective health as an inter-institutional and interdisciplinary social practice, which involves both the State and civil society, aims at protecting and improving people's health. It implies population or community interventions; it includes the responsibility to ensure access and health care quality. Within this practice are the EPHF, defined as actions carried out for specific purposes necessary to achieve the PH Practice's central objective. Each function's operation depends on a sufficient definition of contents, objectives, and activities and on the specific assignment of who is responsible for their execution. Conclusion: The EPHF guides public health policies in Latin America and Ecuador. From this perspective, medical genetics and genomics must be included as a priority in the country's public policy. In this review, we propose the activities to be implemented in this context. This challenge requires political and scientific leadership.

The new function of architectural monuments – a comparative analysis of two different cases: Palazzo Querini Stampalia and the Fondaco dei Tedeschi building

This paper discusses the long-term vision of the historic city development, where buildings assume a new function over time. The discussion is based on the example of Palazzo Querini Stampalia and Fondaco dei Tedeschi – two monuments restored to Venice in a new, different role. In the comparative analysis of the transformation of the buildings, particular attention was paid to the cultural, social and economic context of the city. This article aims to review the strengths and weaknesses of the new-use scenarios, outlining the renovation of the monuments and its added value for cities. The author concluded that no matter what the new function of the building is, it is worth renovating them, because this way the heritage can survive and this should be the central objective of a long-term vision.
