The objective of this paper is to identify the contributions that internal communication has on the functioning of higher education organizations by analyzing the current state of research on the subject. For this purpose, a systematic review was carried out following the PRISMA methodology. The search for articles in the open databases Redalyc and Dialnet and in the closed databases Ebsco-Academic Search Ultimate, Ebsco-Business Source Complete, Web of Science was based on 328 articles to which four filters were applied, resulting in a fi- nal corpus of 18 articles. The main findings determined that the topic has been developed mostly by authors from Latin America; the research takes into account all educational agents (students, teachers, administrators and managers) and mainly has four approaches: internal communication and its relationship with other elements; from the approach of the inclusion of digital media; as part of organizational functioning and from the training of communication professionals. It is concluded that internal communication is considered an important element for the fulfillment of organizational objectives and the generation of motivation, sense of belonging and integration of all personnel. However, it is considered as implicit in the functioning of educational organizations and therefore specific planning, development and evaluation processes are not carried out. Greater attention should be paid to internal communication in order to exploit its potential as a strategy for the improvement of educational organizations. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

One of the widely studied ptimization problems consistsin finding shortest paths from a source to a destination. Classical algorithms for solving this problemare not scalable. Several approaches have been proposed, using heuristics, to reduce the run time. These approaches introduce anerrorand, consequently, they do not guaranteean optimum value inall cases. In this paper we propose agraph reduction algorithm without loss of information, which helps to reduce the run time of algorithms. In addition, we propose a modification to the Dijkstraalgorithmto be used on reduced graphs, guaranteeing an optimal result in all cases. Besides, a comparison between the run time of the proposed algorithms and Dijkstraand A* algorithms is presented. This comparison shows that it ispossible to obtain an optimal pathin a similar time, and even in less time, than those obtained by heuristic algorithms. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

This paper proposes a method of using taxonomy hierarchy in automatic topic identification. The fundamental idea behind this work is to exploit an taxonomy hierarchical structure in order to find a topic of a text. The keywords that are extracted from a given text will be mapped onto their corresponding concepts in the taxonomy. The method pick a single node among the concepts nodes that it believe is the topic of the target text. Despite, a limited vocabulary our topic identification has a good detection rate.

Nowadays, similarity search on metric spaces is becoming a research field of interest due to the fact of its application to different scientific areas. However, when these applications produce a huge amount of data, it is necessary to accelerate the searching process by means of parallel architectures such as clusters, multiprocessors (multicores) or clusters of multiprocessors (multicores). Currently, graphic accelerators have emerged as a technology that allows for good performance at a low cost. In order to exploit the underlined architecture formed by multicores and a graphic accelerator it is nedeed to carry out heterogeneous programming, where CPUs and GPU are working at the same time taking benefits of the complete architecture. In this paper, a suitable generic structure adapted to the multicore/GPU system is presented and the experimental results, obtained in terms of execution time and speed-up, show the advantages of using this heterogeneous system, as well as a study of power consumption.

The purpose of this paper is to provide an overview of ethical concerns related to professional information searching from both a historical and contemporary point of view. Basic ethical questions and issues for searchers are formulated. A suggestion is made that a set of ethical guidelines for online searchers formulated a quarter century ago could be used, with some revision, even today. It is also suggested that "first do no harm" be the primary ethical principle for searchers. Following this a number of ethical guidelines for searchers and searching are formulated. Conclusions stress the importance of ethical consideration in searching. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The article presents a study on the aspects of the information behavior on the selection and utilization of bibliographic databases (BDB) of students having masters in theses and Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) programs. It states the development of instruments based on the Information Seeking Process (ISP) model for the students' knowledge of databases, skills and attitudes in the BDB usage. It also mentions the corroboration of the initial assumption concluded in the study.

The authors describe the OAI-PMH protocol (Open Archives Initiative Protocol for Metadata Harvesting) used for the interchange of metadata on the Internet. Analysed are questions such as the context in which the protocol was born--communities of scientific documents repositiories--and how it has evolved and extended its reach to include any material in electronic format. Its architecture, based on the client/server model, is briefly described. Clients, which are called "archives", place Dublin Core metadata in the public domain in order for servers or service providers to retrieve this metadata and to build added value services for end users. Communication between archives and services takes place using the http protocol. Questions and replies are coded in xml. The authors conclude with a review of the main institutions that have implemented the protocol, users services based on it, and software tools that facilitate the creation of open archives.
