Objectives: The main purpose of this article, which develops from system dynamics, is to make recommendations to serve for the design of public policies on the occupation of physical space by informal sellers of goods for immediate consumption in Bogota. Methods/Statistical Analysis: The process was divided into four (4) phases Defining the problem and identification of the actors, their interests and decision rules, Construction of the causal diagram cycles and description of results. Findings: The most important results indicate that greater interaction among the various stakeholders would be useful in reducing the occupation and the Mayor of Bogota should pay special attention to the time of working life passing traders working in the public space, as this delay may end up condemning this population to work indefinitely in the streets and sidewalks of the city. Application/Improvements: The presence of street vendors of goods for immediate consumption in an area of public space has serious implications on the success of relocation programs, because it increases the likelihood that a passerby buy on the street, because his decision who to buy it is especially based on the proximity of the point of sale.Keywords

Objectives: To determine the trend of bacterial resistance of Escherichia coli to Imipenem (IPM) and Meropenem (MEM), by means of a linear regression model, taking the information collected in the bulletins of bacterial resistance generated by the GREBO group of Bogotá between 2010 and 2014. Methods/Statistical Analysis: From the information published in newsletters GREBO group between 2010 and 2014, the behavior of E. coli bacterial resistance to antibiotics was analyzed. From this information simple linear regression models using the statistical software Statgraphics XVI were generated. Findings: The generated mathematical models to predict the evolution of antibiotic resistance as a function of time and that were significant are: Resistance IPM * Year = 0.00000208772 (p value 0.0020; adjusted R2 = 92.86%); Resistance MEM = 0.00000149115 * Year (p value 0.0026; adjusted R2 = 91.84%). Application/Improvements: There is a relationship between the values of resistance and over the years, with variable time sufficient to explain the behavior of the resistance of E. coli variable. In 2015 IPM resistance is estimated that this in 0.42% (CI 0.02% - 0.8%) and MEM 0.3% (CI 0.17% - 0.42%).Keywords

Methods/Statistical Analysis: In this research using the methodological foundation logical analysis attempts to give an overview of the state of the art in terms P2P and especially networks in the field of computer systems distributed along with several contributions that allow build systems High Throughput Computing. Findings: The network is virtual is application level made up connected to IP networks, in a nutshell systems P2P systems are distributed systems in which there are no any central control or hierarchical structure and can therefore go beyond the services offered by traditional centralized type systems Client Server at the cost of greater technical and theoretical complexity. In P2P systems, nodes that make up the system are connected together using IP networks forming a kind of virtual network application layer, also called “Overlay”, which is used to route messages between nodes in order to find information. Application/Improvements: The recent emergence of applications that exploit the network concept Peer to-Peer or P2P in which all members have the same role has made consider its possible applications to the world of distributed computing. Although there are already similar in this field, such as those that follow the paradigm of grid computing, this new concept may be the source systems massive computer wide open to anyone with an Internet connection could use for the benefit or for solutions others, sharing their surpluses recourses.Keywords

Objectives: This research was conducted in order to determine the influence of thermal comfort, as measured by the index of temperature Wet bulb globe temperature (WBGT), the Global Attention and Perception Index (GIFS) of high school students from a school in Barranquilla, Colombia. Methods/Statistical Analysis: For this, an experimental design was performed, in which the variable peck response was the GIFS, the potential factor was the WBGT, whose levels were the records under different environmental conditions, and the disturbing factor controllable was “student”, this last it was blocked to minimize variability that this could introduce in response, thus obtaining a completely random model blocks. Subsequently, a group of tenth and eleventh grade other selected, subjected to different environmental conditions for 6 days, in which we applied the Toulouse-Pieron test, to measure attention and concentration; and a survey based on the McIntyre scale to evaluate thermal satisfaction, while thermal comfort was measured using a heat stress monitor. Findings: The collected data were processed statistically using analysis of variance, to see if there were differences between levels, and if the data came from a normal distribution, correlation analysis to determine the influence of WBGT factor in the response variable GIFS and descriptive techniques as bar charts, box and whisker plot, among others, which allowed characterizing the information and identify trends. Application/Improvements: The results showed values of WBGT index mostly within the TLV’s; an inverse strong correlation of 90% between the two variables for the sample taken from tenth grade and a moderately strong relationship of 64.9% for eleventh grade, showing greater influence of environmental conditions on the rate of attention and concentration and thermal student satisfaction in the first group compared to the second, who apparently are less sensitive to these.Keywords
