In a global scenario, where transparency and trustworthiness have become more and more mandatory for financial institutions, the proper operational risk management has been the main concern of the financial sector due to the huge loss potential, the reputational risk and the consequences of financial scandals, with special mention to the financial crisis in 2008. Under these circumstances, this study s goal was to identify operational risks in a financial institution by setting a model of self-assessment for risks and controls - RCSA. The model was based on the concepts of ERM framework of COSO and was made feasible through the use of an interventionist approach. The research sought to diagnose the operational risks of the investigated company, providing data to the senior managers about each department, in order to enable them to do the proper mitigating actions in relation to those risks. As a consequence, an important supporting grind has been built for the corporation to strengthen its operational risks management before its headquarters and regulating offices. It is believed that the proposed stages applied during this study have contributed to the theoretical and practical model, making it a valuable tool for identifying the potential operational risks in the segment of the financial market.

This dissertation is an analytical study on the basis interpretivist, and its goal is to analyze the generation of the dual self-understood as consciousness multiplying itself -between the character of Rodrigo Terra Cambara, and his son Floriano Terra Cambara, as narrated in the Erico Verissmo’s trilogy O tempo e o vento, more specifically retreated in the books O retrato and O arquipélago. We based our assumption on the fact that the author gave certain emphasis on the main character, in an attempt to distance him from being a mere action figure. We can ascertain that this southern Brazilian author (Gaucho) through his literary proficiency, was able to complete the difficult task of representing modern man’s identity crisis, where the second self is the product of the fragmented self. Amongst the scholars that best support this subject, of greater importance were the works of Mikhail M. Bakhtin and Volochinov, whose papers concentrate more on dialogism, ideology, individual and collective discourse, and also focus on the question of identity. As a theoretical support for better understanding of the second self, we reviewed the studies of authors that bear a philosophical basis such as Clement Rosset, and also others devoted to the study of psychology and psychoanalysis such as Otto Rank, Sigmund Freud, Carl Gustav Jung and C.F. Keppler. Although many of the studies characterize the subject of the second self in different manners, the overall concept ascertain similarities on the subject of alterity, and therefore, we were able to update Erico Verissimo’s literature realm and conceptualize in a historical manner the significance of second self, maintaining in its essence, the meaning of one self’s identity search.

Francis Schaeffer is considered by many one of the greatest Christians of the 20th century. Upset by the divorce between nature and grace provoked by the preeminence of irrationality contained in contemporary thought, the author encounters the decline and lack of hope that imprint the modern man regarding the concept of objective and universal truth. In defiance of this very declaration, Francis Schaeffer tries to rescue the balance that should involve the elements in the relation faith and reason without, however, inclining towards rationalisms nor even, on the other hand, toward a religious existentialism. Verifying the crisis and dilemma in which the modern man finds himself in philosophy, arts, general culture and theology, engendered by the respective abandonment of universal concepts and by the adoption of a post-modern perspective of a fragmented reality, Francis Schaeffer proposes a confrontation of this crisis from an epistemic source found only in the Sacred Scriptures. Herewith, the objective of this research is to demonstrate that the author tries to compose his proposed solution exclusively aligned with the Biblical Christianity, keeping in mind the influence that he received from the presupposition and principles of the reformed thought. Thus, one tries to identify how Francis Schaeffer applies the reformed view regarding the unified field of knowledge in his diagnosis and proposal for confronting the paradigm crisis, to the point of claiming the inexistence of the epistemological crisis for the reformers, as well as for the biblical. Nonetheless, in order to solve the actual epistemological crisis in which the modern man finds himself, the author highlights the vital and imperious importance regarding the epistemic response emerging from the reformed concept of Biblical Revelation, which ends up, wherefore, offering an answer equally metaphysical and moral, also necessary for dissolving the paradigm crisis.

The association of Web Technology with instrument automation and control by computer has made possible the development of the so called Remote Laboratories or WebLabs distributed environments that allow to access and control experiments remotely through the Internet. In this work, a WebLab was developed for the remote measurement of the attenuation coefficient in an optical fiber. The instrument control and the data acquisition are implemented through GPIB interfaces and the instrumentation program LabView. The remote control of the experiment is implemented by using a double Client/Server architecture. The WebLab was integrated to a virtual learning environment implemented with the software MOODLE, enabling its use in the context of on-line courses or in supporting activities in face-to-face courses, and will be connected to the KyaTera Network, allowing the remote experiment sharing with all participant laboratories and research groups.

This work assumes that the judicial recovery plan of companies is not exempt to incurring the market failures, particularly in the informational asymmetry. Under such approach, we will treat the law and economics with special attention to the neoclassical school and the new institutional economics, focusing our attention in the economic efficiency desired, in order to transport it to the judicial recovery process. Since then, our analysis turns to market inefficiencies that impact in the reorganization plan - especially the information asymmetry - to found that the social function is the catalytic element that justifies the judicial reorganization and should be the first and foremost rule to be target in this process. As a result, this work discuss, from the analysis of the game theory, the strategic behavior of each agent and wich informational level is expected to make decisions, being relevant in this study corporate governance mechanisms available, including the management accounting. At the end, it is believed that the information asymmetry can be best worked in the judicial reorganization proceedings on the basis of management accounting mechanisms, allowing us to demonstrate the economic feasibility of the company.

This thesis investigates an alternative for the development and qualification of the urban territory densification process, in which the increasing verticalization of the volume is accompanied by an increase in the volume’s mass on the city floor, now divided into street level, underground and/or upper floor, as an approach to ensure an amount of activities, circulations and free areas for the development of social practices compatible with the implemented densification volume. It’s the presentation of a new concept called MHT - Multilevel Hybrid Territory, and the main hypothesis is that by incorporating it, into the city’s urban design, it’s possible to significantly increase the volume of collective use spaces, for the development of social practices that ensures the urban vitality and assures the fulfillment of the social function of the urban land. The work is divided into two research aspects: theory and practice. In the theoretical part the main concepts that underlay the work are presented. In the practice part, the occurrences related to the imminence of concept formulation are investigated, and a projetual test is developed as an instrument for materialization and questioning for the proposed scenario. The concept for MHT - Multilevel Hybrid Territory is generated with the interchange of conceptual theory and a set of practical studies as a questioning method
