In the face of technological advancements, growing demand for audiovisual content and changes in media consumption habits, production companies have the need to develop new and efficient platforms for their content distribution, seeking greater coverage, flexibility in delivery and therefore, quality of user experience. In this context, the broadcast industry needs to review its processes and reduce its operational costs in the content distribution stage to be competitive, in a global player market break paradigms has become fundamental. With the aim to find alternatives to solve the problem that the industry faces and to contribute to facilitate the decision making in the analysis of new technologies implementation, the use of multicriteria decision-making methods minimizes the possibility of errors, mitigating the risks and increasing effectiveness in the decision-making process. From the competitive dimensions based on the Operations Strategy, the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method was applied to determine the scenario that presents the best result according to the previously defined competitive variables. Once the best alternative was selected, the GUT matrix was applied to prioritize the actions, enabling and accelerating the implementation of it, as well as supporting the process improvement and effectiveness. For the research development, experts and stakeholders opinions were collected, deal with the novelty in the application of a new technology, conflicting stakeholders interests and different variables in the decision process are the challenges that must be overcome for the choice and success implementation of a new content distribution platform. Thus, with a structured mapping and a complete view of the process, two distinct implementation steps were adopted sequentially. As a result, a first solution was proposed with the reducing operational costs aim, as well as serving as the basis and structure for a second intervention, which seeks new models and business opportunities.

The purpose of this study is the relationship between sustainability and the project of architecture, with the focus on energy consumption in urban buildings. Sustaninable development will be discussed concerning to the cities organization. Architecture, then, will be inserted to this context represented by its most characteristic product, the building. As a metodology to measure the building impact on environment, the life cycle analisys is applied. This will lead to directives to an environmentally responsible building. This directives will define the basis of an eficient project, regarding to the expectations among the possibility of building consumption energy reduction.

This work present a characterization of the ternary alloy of Cu (98.5%) - Ni (1.0%) - Cr (0.5%) obtained by powder metallurgy. The material was compacted with different loads and compression times and subjected to a sintering process with different temperatures and sintering times. The characterization was made by optical microscopy, scanning electron, by energy dispersion, x-ray diffraction and mechanical tests of micro hardness and electrical resistivity. It was also made a comparison of the characteristics and electrical and mechanical properties of the same alloy fused by powder metallurgy, to verify if the alloy obtaining process does not alter its properties, confirming data obtained in previous works. The samples showed considerable results of conductivity and was possible to find an initial temperature of growth of the electrical properties, phenomena of diffusion of the powders and good interactions between the metals.

This research analyzes the establishment of the insólito in the tales of Rubens Figueiredo's collection, The book of the wolves (2009). For this purpose, it was searched to understand how the constituent mechanisms of the fantastic, such as the reader’s and/or the character’s hesitation, the lack of the characters’ nomenclature, the spatial inaccuracy of the narrative, the self-diegetic narrator, the behavioral and the discursive ambiguity assist in the establishment of this textual modality in the chosen corpus. Thus, this dissertation starts from the principle of the importance of the corpus reading of this study, as well as from the theoretical apparatuses such as David Roas (2001), Filipe Furtado (1980), Jaime Alazraki (2001), Remo Ceserani (2006) and Rosalba Campra (2016) etc, in order to understand the divergences and the approximations of the strands in regarding to the fantastic narrative concept. The focus of this work is on the fact that the tales start from a narrative principle that oscillates between reality and unreality. The achieved results show that there are oscillations and ruptures in the plot of these narratives, facts that establish the fantastic in the tales

The period of transformations of the metropolises subsidized during the last decades to the requalification of the ports due its degradation.This process was given through the originated advances technologies in the ports structures.The adaptation to the existing standards provided the sprouting of new urban meshes adapted to the urban centers being born together to the coastal regions of several metropolises.In this way the transformation of American- Latin cities and the linkings with the maritime border, this joint between the ports areas of the metropolises of Buenos Aires, Montevideu and Rio de Janeiro have allowed to the integration space patner between again urbanized areas of the historical centers and the ports of the region of the south cone.

The main objective of this paper is to analyze the demand for health insurance in the Brazilian context, whose demand for this type of product has been low, despite research proving to be one of the most desired by the local population. This study is based on two distinct streams of research: First, the traditional insurance economy, based on traditional economic theory, and then from the perspective of the behavioral insurance. Thus, it will be possible to compare how these lines of research analyze the scenario and possible solutions to the roots of the problem, including possible alternatives to foster the health insurance market in Brazil. This study is supported by a bibliographic review, in the Brazilian and international context.

Os estudos sobre os fundos de investimento no Brasil, apesar de ainda incipientes, demonstram-se cada vez mais dinâmicos, considerando seu volátil universo normativo e regulamentar. O debate sobre a sua natureza é exemplo clássico das discussões travadas entre os acadêmicos em face de um instituto recente no direiro brasileiro. A conversão da Medida Provisória n° 881/2019 na Lei 13.874 de 20 de setembro de 2019 é a mais recente mudança no cenário normativo dos fundos de investimento e deve ser considerada um marco para a definição de sua natureza jurídica, assim como uma mudança significativa no regime de responsabilidades dos investidores, dos prestadores de serviço dos fundos de investimento e, consequententemente, na forma de interpretação e regulação dessas mudanças pela Comissão de Valores Mobiliários, responsável pela regulamentação e fiscalização do mercado de capitais.
