In order to use variational methods to obtain our results, we make some changes of variables to obtain some semilinear equations, whose associated functionals are well defined in a classical Sobolev spaces. We also work with these equations on an Orlicz type space whose energy functional satisfy the geometric properties of the Mountain Pass Theorem. We still use the penalty technique due to Del Pino and Felmer and the Moser iteration method to obtain estimates in L1 norm, which are fundamental to our study. / Neste trabalho, estudamos questões relacionadas à existência de soluções positivas para algumas classes de equações de Schrödinger quasilineares, com hipóteses sobre o potencial que o possibilita se anular no infinito. Afim de usarmos métodos variacionais na obtenção de nossos resultados, aplicamos mudança de variáveis para reduzirmos as equações quasilineares a equações semilineares. Os funcionais associados a essas novas equações estão bem definidos em espaços de Sobolev clássicos e em espaços tipo Orlicz e satisfazem as propriedades geométricas do Teorema do Passo da Montanha. Ainda utilizamos a técnica de penalização de Del Pino e Felmer e o método de iteração de Moser para obtenção de estimativas, fundamentais para o nosso estudo, na norma L1.

Working rehabilitation is the topic of my diploma thesis. Finding out the ways of securing working rehabilitation by the employment offices in the region of Ústí nad Labem on the basis of secondary sources and qualitative talks is the aim of this diploma thesis. So far in the Czech Republic hasn´t been the system providing comprehensive solution of the health handicapped employment. The Act Employment n.435/2004, Code introduces the institute of working rehabilitation in order to provide the access and comeback to the labour market for the health handicapped. Supporting the policy which enable to employ these handicapped people is the the next objective of this institute. The employment offices as the state administration bodies provide the employment facilities in a given region, they are independent subjects, territorially organized in districts and their legislative duties contain working rehabilitation securing. Research respondents were the particular employment offices in the region of Ústí nad Labem personnel who are interested in working rehabilitation and really practise it. The region of ústí nad Labem belongs to the Czech Republic area maintaining the primacy in the field of the unemployment. The unemployment as a result of labour market functioning is one of the contemporary world problems. Labour market is very dynamic phenomenon which reacts to technological development and economic situation. Nowadayas with the essential decrease in working positions there is a decrease in free working positions reserved for the handicapped and thus the participation of the handiccaped in the total number of job applicants has been steadily increased. The integration of these handiccaped to the labour market is affected by lots of factors among others by insuficcient awareness of their needs and weak points of the contemporary functioning from the legistation and practise view point. Creating procedures which enable to make provision for needs and skills of working rehabilitation participants and thereby increasing their participation at labour market was the intention of this diploma thesis. The targets were fulfilled so there were suggested three variants which show various possibilities of the initiation of working rehabilitation process and enable the effective usage of their particular forms. The diploma thesis results can be used either by the employment offices personnel throughout the Czech Republic or by the specialized experts who are interested in the problem of working rehabilitation.

In choosing the subject of this degree work I was led by the effort to give an exhaustive integral report on the development in the sphere of the social and health care and to analyze the facilities for social sevices in the region of Příbram. As it is not possible to evaluate the facilities for social services without the description of basic historical events, of current demographic indexes and without the indication of the future development, the historical part together with the specification of particular groups threatened with social exclusion (seniors and handicapped people) forms an indispensable chapter of the theoretical part of this degree work. In connection with the fact that the region of Příbram is a specific industrial locality with signs of changes in the original structure of the population, it is possible to state that the people moved herein show less family solidarity and unity with each other. For that reason more facilities for social services are at disposal in this region. It is the unity care service rendered not only in own homes but directly in the houses of the clients as well, that has the oldest tradition among all providers The family nursing care rendered by one of two organizations has already the tradition of more than 15 years too. As to the care of seniors, the most significant provider that is the allowance organization "Pečovatelská služba města Příbram". This organization offers field care service and runs the home for seniors.The service, that supports especially the security of the seniors in their households, that is AREÍON-Život 90 with about 50-60 clients.A great advantage is also the fact that a part of providers of social and associated services have the seat at the same place, in the Community Centre. As to the care of handicapped people the strongest point are the family care CHOPS and SANCO, the field care service and other services rendered by "Pečovatelská služba města Příbram", the activities of unions and organizations associating handicapped people, assistance services and consultancy, community centre Příbram VII, day centre in the town nursery school and in the rehabilitation short stay hospital It is not simple to prognosticate further development as to rendering social services a relatively active social policy on the local level and a large extent of collaboration among particular groups of those, who provide social services, are promising and hopeful for the future.An important role will play the fact whether these organizations will obtain sufficient financial means needed for ensuring the services, they offer, within the sphere of multisorce financing. The demand for services and staffs meeting the requirements fixed by the Act on social services will be of great importance too.

Person with stoma is any handicapped human with temporarily or permanently drawn hollow organ out onto body surface. The most common it concerns colon, small intestine or urinal system. Uncontrollable emptying of faecal matter or urine happens by innatural way with necessary use of stoma appliances. In stomas sphere the most important factor is informedness not only of the patient himself but of nurses as well. Sufficient education of a patient and ability of a nurse to treat stoma is the base of good nursing care. The aim of the thesis was to find out to what degree the stoma patients are informed on ways of stoma treatment and how they are satisfied with the quality of given nursing care. The work is divided on contemporary state and methodological procedures. Contemporary state includes especially pre-operation, post-operation, home and out-patient care, clients´ education, importance of stoma nurse and association of stoma patients, kinds of stoma appliances, specifics of stoma patients´ nutrition, social problems of stomas etc. For the research part six hypotheses were established. They concerned the quality of nursing care, problems of stomas treating, cooperation with nurse and club of stoma patients. It was found out that 81% addressed people are satisfied with the quality of given nursing care, 98% are familiar with problems of stomas treating, 99% were able after six months after setting of stoma to take care of stoma themselves,72% are members of the club and 90% cooperate with a stoma nurse. On the base of the research all hypotheses were confirmed and the aim of the thesis was fulfilled.In the thesis a method of quantitative research was chosen. The research proceeded in Hospital České Budějovice, Inc. in clubs of stoma patients in Tábor and Příbram. The technique of data collecting was anonymous questionnaire established for clients with a stoma. 100 respondents were addressed. The research proceeded on the base of personal contact and cooperation with stoma patients, therefore the return of questionnaires was 100%. Two questionnaires were from the reason of incompleteness taken out. The results are given in percentages and diagrammatized.

The thesis deals with the attitude of the society towards people with special needs, their rights, integration and kinds of disabilities highlighting the hearing impairment. It further describes how the family accepts a child with special needs, the importance of the early care, family therapy and relationships of the family and people around it. The goal of this thesis is to present the subject of hearing impairment and to draw attention to the problems the deaf child family has to cope. In the practical part the reader can find a survey based on questionnaires filled in by parents of children with a hearing impairment. It focuses mainly on parents, their situation, doctors´approach, the impact such handicap has on family and ways to accept it. Besides the questions in the questionnaire, the parents were given the opportunity to express their experience with children. Findings of the survey are interesting from the point of view of the research in this field and they can also serve as an inspiration to families who find themselves in a similar situation.

Esta tese investiga as correlações existentes entre os ciclos econômicos (enfatizando a localização das atividades econômicas motrizes) e os ciclos espaciais urbanos (entendidos como as “ondas” de construção da cidade). Aracaju, capital do estado de Sergipe, Brasil, foi escolhida como estudo de caso por apresentar especificidades em sua trajetória urbana e econômica. Em síntese, a cidade foi implantada em 1855, sob um planejamento inicial que se restringia a definição do traçado das ruas e ao código de posturas. As grandes áreas de mangue e regiões alagadiças não permitiram a expansão urbana com a tecnologia da época e com as condições financeiras do estado, o resultado foi uma cidade compacta. Com a descoberta do petróleo em Sergipe, na década de 1960, ocorreu o deslocamento dos escritórios da Região Nordeste de Petróleo de Maceió para Aracaju, decisão que trouxe novos funcionários a cidade, com remuneração maior que a média dos moradores até então e representando quase 10% da população da capital. Com a justificativa de fornecer infraestrutura física, diversas mudanças ocorreram. O resultado observa-se na expansão e fragmentação urbana. As áreas de concentração de atividade econômica motriz mudaram a paisagem. A área da antiga atividade motriz industrial, degradou-se e atualmente está em lento processo de requalificação urbana e “re”dinamização econômica. Nas áreas próximas à concentração de atividades de comércio e serviços surgem diversas “ilhas de crescimento”. Em áreas onde esta concentração de atividades de comércio e serviços gera externalidades negativas, ocorre o esvaziamento residencial. O processo verificado é apresentado como compatível com duas dinâmicas: a do ambiente construído como palco para a urbanização do capital e, a de atração-repulsão que pode existir na relação entre atividades diferentes. Para abordar o tema proposto, optou-se por uma análise baseada em partes de quatro teorias (HARVEY, 1985; WHEATON, 1987; ABRAMO, 2001 a, b; KRAFTA, 1992), que tratam o ambiente construído como elemento central da dinâmica do capitalismo associado: à constante criação de novas localizações como elemento de inovação, à reconstrução da parte interna das cidades através da substituição, visando maior lucratividade (WHEATON, 1982), à estratégia que a construção civil utiliza para convencer as famílias a mudarem para determinados locais – convenção urbana (ABRAMO, 2001a) e, às diferenciações locacionais que emanam da configuração urbana (KRAFTA, 1994 a, b). A partir deste arcabouço teórico foi proposta uma metodologia em que se buscou identificar e analisar: (i) cada ciclo econômico dentro do período de 1940 a 2008, e; (ii) os ciclos espaciais urbanos, nas áreas onde ocorreu a localização das atividades econômicas motrizes. A proposta de identificação e análise dos ciclos econômicos englobou os dados de cada atividade econômica (o número de pessoas ocupadas por atividade e a contribuição de cada atividade na composição do PIB municipal). A proposta de identificação e análise dos ciclos espaciais urbanos englobou características: (i) das mudanças no uso do solo e no perfil de renda do morador, (ii) da análise configuracional, e; (iii) das inovações construtivas (verticalidade-densidade e padrão-tipologia). O resultado do trabalho empírico evidenciou a diminuição do gap entre os ciclos econômicos de comércio e serviços e os ciclos espaciais urbanos. O conjunto das análises dos dois ciclos e suas correlações forneceu dados para uma leitura do trabalho empírico em convergência com o arcabouço teórico proposto. Conclui-se que na parte teórica do estudo, houve eficácia das teorias para a análise proposta ao processo urbano. A parte metodológica mostrou-se eficaz na identificação e análise das correlações, embora não se tenha obtido alguns dados para elaboração de determinadas correlações que possibilitariam maior número de dados para a medição do gap. Ressalta-se, porém, que a metodologia evidenciou a tendência de diminuição do gap entre os ciclos, confirmando a hipótese levantada pela tese, e; identificou as correlações entre os ciclos econômicos e espaciais urbanos, ou seja, apresentou as correlações entre o local de concentração das atividades econômicas motrizes industriais e de comércio e serviços e, as mudanças urbanas (nas tipologias construídas, nas densidades construtivas e populacionais e, nos perfis de renda do morador), alcançando-se assim o objetivo proposto. / This thesis investigates the correlations between economic cycles (emphasizing the location of the main economic activity) and urban spatial cycles (understood as the "waves" of construction of the city). Aracaju, capital of the Sergipe State, Brazil was chosen as a case study by presenting specific characteristics in its urban and economic trajectory. In summary, the town was implanted in 1855, under an initial planning that restricted the definition of the layout of the streets and the code of postures. The large mangrove areas and flood plains regions have not allowed urban sprawl with the technology of that epoch and with the financial conditions of the State, which resulted in a compact city. With the discovery of oil in Sergipe, in the 1960‟s, the displacement of the offices of the Northeastern Region of Petroleum from Maceió to Aracaju happened, decision that brought new employees to the city, with remuneration greater than the average of the residents until then and representing almost 10% of the population of the capital. With the justification of providing physical infrastructure, several changes occurred. The result is noted in urban expansion and urban fragmentation. The areas of concentration of the main economic activity have changed the landscape. The area of the old main industrial activity has been degraded and is currently in the slow process of urban develop and economic dynamics. In areas close to the activity concentration of trade and services appear several “islands of growth” In areas where this concentration of trade and services appear several generates negative externalities occurs emptying residential. The process verified is presented as compatible with two dynamic: the built environment as a place for the urbanization of capital and of attraction-repulsion that may exist in the relation between different activities. Regarding the approached proposed theme, it was chosen an analysis based on parts of four theories (HARVEY, 1985; WHEATON, 1987; ABRAMO, 2001 a, b; KRAFTA, 1992), dealing with the environment constructed as a central element of the dynamics of capitalism associated: to the constant creation of new locations as an element of innovation, to the reconstruction of the inner part of the cities by replacing, focusing at increased profitability (WHEATON, 1982), to the strategy that the real estate market uses to convince families to move to certain places – Urban Convention (ABRAMO, 2001a), and to the differentiations locational as a result from urban location (KRAFTA, 1994 a, b). Taking this theoretical skeleton into account, it was proposed a methodology where it was tried to find to identify and analyze: (i) each economic cycle within the period from 1940 to 2008; (ii) the urban space cycles, in areas where there was the location of main economic activity. The proposal for the identification and analysis of economic cycles involved the data of each economic activity (the number of persons employed by activity and the contribution of each activity in the composition of GDP). The proposal for the identification and analysis of urban spatial cycles involved characteristics: (i) of changes in land use and income of a resident profile, (ii), of the constructive innovations, (iii) of configurational language (verticality-density and pattern-typology). The result of empirical study showed the decrease in the gap between economic cycles and commercial services and urban spatial cycles. The group of analyses of the two cycles and their correlations provided data for a reading of empirical in convergence with the proposed theoretical framework. It is concluded that in the theoretical part of the study, there were effectiveness of theories for analyzing the proposal to the urban process. The methodological part proved effective in the identification and analysis of the correlations, although there has obtained some data to the production of certain correlations that would make possible a greater number of data for the measurement of the gap. Points out, however, that the methodology showed the declining trend of the gap between cycles, confirming the hypothesis raised by thesis, and; identified correlations between economic cycles and urban space, is presented the correlations between the concentration of the main economic activity (industrial, services) and urban changes (in typologies built, in constructive and population densities, and income of resident profiles), reaching the proposed goal.

The Service Worker is a programmable proxy that allows the clients to keep offline parts of websites or even the whole domains, receive push notifications, have back-ground synchronization and other features. All of these features are available to the user without having to install an application - the user only visits a website. The service worker has gained popularity due to being a key component in the Progressive Web Applications (PWAs). PWAs have already proven to drastically increase the number of visits and the duration of browsing for websites such as Forbes [1], Twitter [2], and many others. The Service Worker is a powerful tool, yet it is hard for clients to understand the security implications of it. Therefore, all modern browser install the service workers without asking the client. While this offers many conveniences to the user, this powerful technology introduces new security risks. This thesis takes a closer look at the structure of the service worker and focuses on the vulnerabilities of its components. After the literature analysis and some testing using the demonstrator developed during this project, the vulnerabilities of the service worker components are classified and presented in the form of the vulnerability matrix; the mitigations to the vulnerabilities are then outlined, and the two are summarized in the form of security guidelines.

The changes occurring in rural areas motivate studies of researchers that link the different perspectives of developments in contemporary times. Faced with the changes, there is the complexity and dynamics existing in rural areas. These changes are caused by the advent of technologies to the advancement of scientific technical means and the spread of communication and advancement in the transport system in urban and rural areas. With these social, cultural and economic relations changes were modified, new meanings but also the stays occur. In this sense, it is necessary to understand the changes and continuities perceived in people's way of life, social relationships and work in the agricultural and non agricultural. This work, in order to discuss the issue of new Brazilian rural, has the objective of understanding the rural setting of the city of Campo do Brito, given the changes occurring in the Brazilian countryside. For the realization of the research were adopted the following methodological procedures: literature review; interviews with farmers in rural establishments, with representatives from government agencies, trade unions, associations and traders. Information was also collected from secondary sources, then was held to analyze the data to understand the city studied. Analyses were performed with considering the analysis of the dimensions, social, economic and cultural, therefore, the work is based on geographic category space and the concepts of rurality, new rurality, rural and existing relations again between rural and urban. Observed changes in spatial configuration with the addition of new equipment in agricultural activities, infrastructure of villages lined the permanence and the reinterpretation of the traditions from the existing cultural and religious practices that underpin the identity of the population. Shows a combination of activities and revenues as strategic ways to stay, to continue in rural areas. / As transformações ocorridas no espaço rural motivam estudos dos pesquisadores que apontam as diferentes perspectivas sobre os acontecimentos ocorridos na contemporaneidade. Diante das mudanças, observa-se a complexidade e a dinâmica existente no meio rural. Essas modificações são causadas pelo advento das tecnologias com o avanço do meio técnico científico, difusão da comunicação e avanço no sistema de transportes nos espaços urbano e rural. Com essas transformações, as relações sociais, culturais e econômicas foram modificadas e ressignificadas. Deve-se destacar também a ocorrência de permanências. Nesse sentido, faz-se necessário explicar as mudanças e permanências percebidas no modo de vida da população, nas relações sociais e de trabalho, nas atividades agrícolas e não agrícolas. O presente trabalho, no intuito de discutir o tema do novo rural brasileiro, apresenta como objetivo explicar a configuração do espaço rural do município de Campo do Brito diante das transformações ocorridas no meio rural brasileiro. Para a efetivação da pesquisa adotaram-se os seguintes procedimentos metodológicos: revisão bibliográfica; realização de entrevistas com os agricultores nos estabelecimentos rurais, com os representantes de órgãos públicos, de sindicatos, das associações e comerciantes. Também foram coletadas informações de fontes secundárias. Em seguida, foi realizada a análise dos dados para se compreender o município estudado. Foram efetuadas com vistas as explicações análises das dimensões sociais, econômica e cultural. Para tanto, o trabalho está fundamentado na categoria geográfica espaço e nos conceitos de ruralidade, nova ruralidade, novo rural e as relações existente entre o rural e o urbano. Observou-se as alterações na configuração espacial com a inserção dos novos equipamentos nas atividades agrícolas, na infraestrutura dos povoados, ladeadas pela permanência e a ressignificação das tradições a partir das manifestações culturais e religiosas existentes que alicerçam a identidade da população. Evidencia-se uma combinação de atividades agrícolas e não agrícolas como formas estratégicas de permanecer no espaço rural.

Geographical Indication (GI) has been considered a market strategic tool for commercial organizations worldwide, bringing differentiation of products and services in relation to competition, in a context of greater demand from consumers who are willing to acquire them for uniqueness, tradition and guarantee local production. The Brazilian Industrial Property Law establishes that the GI is classified into two modalities: Indication of Origin (IO) and Designation of Origin (DO). Several studies have been performed on GI in Brazil and around the world describing concepts, applications and case studies of GI, emphasizing the development and appreciation of regions after getting her record of producing areas by IO or DO. But when it comes to mapping potential future products for GI in sectors of great importance for the Brazilian economy, such as agribusiness, it is observed that there is a gap in this type of study in the state of Sergipe, even with the work of the Ministry of Agriculture, Livestock and Supply at the national level. Whereas orange produced in the South Territory of Sergipe is an important product in the state´s economy and it is representative on the national scene, this study aims to identify the potential that the orange produced in this region has to be protected by GI. This research is characterized as a qualitative exploratory case study. To achieve the goals and respond the research questions, data were collected through bibliographic research, documents and interviews with five (5) citrus industry experts of South Sergipe. These data were analyzed and classified into categories for content analysis. The study concludes and presents elements that suggest that South Orange Sergipe is a product with potential for GI because it has history and culture linked to the territory, it is known and marketed in the state and beyond, which can configure an IO, and it also has different taste qualities, because it is grown in a region with unique climate, soil and temperature, according to experts, which could set up a DO. This region of unique features extends to some of Bahia Northeastern cities. The study also shows a map with the planting areas with potential for demarcation of the GI. The implementation of a GI in South Sergipe can be a way for the resumption of growth and development of citrus production in the region by organizing producers to achieve registration at the INPI and improving business management. However, this can only occur if producers are united and committed to the GI and relying on the commitment of Federal, State and Municipal government and institutions connected with them such as MAPA, Embrapa, Emdagro, Sebrae and support of the University. / A proteção por Indicação Geográfica (IG) tem sido considerada uma ferramenta estratégica de mercado para as organizações comerciais em todo o mundo, trazendo diferenciação de produtos e serviços em relação à concorrência, em um contexto de maior exigência por parte dos consumidores, os quais estão dispostos em adquiri-los pela singularidade, tradição e garantia do modo de produção local. A Lei de Propriedade Industrial brasileira nº 9.279/96 define que a IG é classificada em duas modalidades: Indicação de Procedência (IP) e Denominação de Origem (DO). Diversos estudos sobre IG já foram realizados no Brasil e no mundo descrevendo conceitos, aplicações e casos de sucesso das IG, ressaltando o desenvolvimento e valorização de regiões após conseguir o registro de suas áreas produtoras por IP ou DO. Mas quando se trata de mapeamento de produtos potencias para futuras IG, em setores de grande importância para a economia brasileira, como o agronegócio, observa-se que existe uma lacuna nesse tipo de estudo no Estado de Sergipe, mesmo com a atuação do Ministério da Agricultura, Pecuária e Abastecimento (MAPA) em nível nacional. Considerando que a laranja produzida no Território Sul Sergipano é um produto de destaque na economia do Estado e de representatividade no cenário nacional, este estudo objetiva identificar o potencial que a laranja produzida nessa região possui para ser protegida por IG. O trabalho caracteriza-se como um estudo de caso exploratório de natureza qualitativa. Para atingir os objetivos e responder ao problema de pesquisa, dados foram coletados por meio de pesquisa bibliográfica, documental e realização de entrevistas com 5 (cinco) especialistas em citricultura do Sul sergipano. Esses dados foram tratados e classificados em categorias para análise de conteúdo. O estudo conclui e apresenta elementos que indicam ser a laranja do Sul sergipano um produto com potencial para IG, pois possui história e cultura ligadas ao território, é conhecida e comercializada no estado e fora dele, o que pode configurar uma IP, e também possui qualidades de sabor diferenciadas, por ser cultivada em uma região com características únicas de clima, solo e temperatura, segundo especialistas, o que pode configurar uma DO. Essa região de características únicas se estende até algumas cidades do Nordeste da Bahia. O estudo ainda apresenta um mapa com as áreas de plantio com potencial para demarcação da IG. A implantação de uma IG no Sul Sergipano pode ser uma saída para a retomada de crescimento e desenvolvimento da citricultura na região, organizando produtores para conseguir o registro no INPI e melhorando a gestão dos negócios. Todavia, isso só pode ocorrer se os produtores estiverem unidos e comprometidos com a IG e contando com o engajamento dos governos Federal, Estadual e Municipal e instituições a eles ligadas, como MAPA, Embrapa, Emdagro, Sebrae e apoio da Universidade.
