L'investissement est une notion récente dans la sphère juridique. Voici quelques années, elle n'était encore employée que dans la règlementation relative au contrôle des investissements étrangers. C'est que, si le droit n'ignorait pas l'investissement, il le saisissait presque uniquement à travers d'autres notions, tels l'apport en société ou le mouvement de capital. Depuis lors, le mot a été très largement juridicisé. Pour s'en tenir à deux exemples, on peut ainsi relever que, dans notre ordre interne, l'existence d'un investissement permet une durée contractuelle longue et que, dans l'ordre international, la qualification d'investissement est aujourd'hui une condition de la compétence des tribunaux arbitraux statuant sous l'égide du Cirdi.Cet accès spontané de l'investissement à la juridicité s'est malheureusement accompagné de certaines incohérences. Ainsi, le mot est parfois employé de manière excessivement large, comme en droit des marchés financiers, où il désigne toute opération relative à un instrument financier. De même, en droit des régimes matrimoniaux, ce que la Cour de cassation nomme les « dépenses d'investissement » recouvre en réalité l'ensemble des dépenses immobilières. Parfois, à l'inverse, certaines opérations dont la qualification d'investissement ne fait aucun doute continuent d'être envisagées à travers des notions qui en sont le simple reflet. L'objet de la thèse est donc de rétablir une certaine cohérence dans l'emploi du mot investissement en proposant une définition juridique de la notion et en esquissant certains éléments du régime qui s'y attache. / Investment is a relatively new legal concept. Some years ago, the term was only used within the foreign investment regulations. Back then, investment was mostly happrehended through other legal concepts, such as capital contribution or capital movement. Since then, however, the concept of investment has largely entered the legal vocabulary. For instance, it turns out that, in the French legal order, the existence of an investment makes the conclusion of a long duration contract possible. Besides, it may also be noted that, in the international order, the jurisdiction of an arbitral tribunal established under the aegis of the ICSID is limited to the disputes that arise out of an investment.Such a phenomenon has unfortunately brought on various inconsistencies. Thus, the term appears to be used in ways that sometimes make its meaning overly wide, as in securities law, in which investment refers to all kinds of operations related to financial instruments. Similarly, in matrimonial property regimes, what the French Cour de cassation calls "investment spending" includes all real estate spending. Sometimes, on the contrary, investment is still being apprehended through other concepts that are the simple reflection of that very concept. Therefore, the purpose of this dissertation is to establish some consistency in the use of the term investment by proposing a legal definition of the concept and outlining some elements of its regime.

Esta pesquisa propõe uma metodologia de alocação otimizada de monitores da Qualidade da Energia Elétrica (QEE) em sistemas de distribuição, de modo que estes sejam sensíveis tanto às variações de tensão de curta duração, bem como às potenciais condições de ressonância harmônica. A metodologia de alocação dispõe da aplicação do Método de Posição de Faltas (MPF) e da Análise de Ressonância Harmônica Modal (ARHM) para a construção de uma matriz binária de cobertura. Esta matriz é então utilizada pelo processo de otimização para a determinação dos melhores locais de instalação dos monitores, garantindo assim o completo monitoramento dos distúrbios da QEE considerados. A partir do MPF, é estudado o comportamento das tensões nodais remanescentes do Sistema de Distribuição (SD) em análise frente a situações de curtos-circuitos que provocam afundamentos e /ou elevações de tensão. Pela ARHM, as impedâncias modais associadas ao modo crítico são calculadas para a identificação das respectivas frequências de ressonância harmônica do SD. Além disso, a partir dos autovetores críticos, associados ao modo crítico, também se obtém o grau de observabilidade das condições de ressonância para cada nó do SD. A otimização minimiza a quantidade necessária de monitores para a completa observação dos distúrbios de QEE considerados, e é formulada como um modelo de programação linear inteira com variáveis binárias. Para a resolução deste problema de otimização utilizou-se o algoritmo Branch and Bound. A metodologia foi testada para um SD de 15 nós, baseado em uma rede do CIGRÉ, e para um SD de 24 nós, baseado no SD de 34 nós do IEEE. Os resultados apontam a necessidade de instalação de 2 a 4 monitores para o SD de 15 nós, e de 2 a 9 monitores para o SD de 24 nós, para a completa observabilidade dos distúrbios de QEE considerados. A metodologia de alocação otimizada de monitores de QEE apresenta-se como uma ferramenta auxiliar para o planejamento de um sistema de monitoramento que promova meios para a melhoria dos índices de QEE. / This research proposes an optimized allocation methodology of Power Quality (PQ) meters in Distribution System (DS), considering short duration voltage variations and potential harmonic resonance conditions. The allocation methodology uses the Fault Position Method (FPM) and the Harmonic Resonance Modal Analysis (HRMA) in order to obtain a binary covering matrix, which is lately used by the optimization process. The optimization process determines the best installation nodes of the minimum number of PQ monitors that complete observe the considered PQ disturbances. From the FPM, the behavior of the remaining nodal voltages is studied for different short-circuit situations, which cause voltage sags and/ or swells. The HRMA is used to calculate the modal impedances related to the critical modes and identify the respective harmonic frequencies of the DS. Moreover, from the critical eigenvectors, associated with the critical mode, it is also obtained the observability level of the respective harmonic resonance frequencies. The allocation problem is modeled as an integer linear programming that minimizes the number of necessary PQ meters, ensuring the complete observation of the considered PQ disturbances. The optimization is performed using a Branch and Bound algorithm. The allocation methodology was tested for a 15 nodes DS based on a CIGRÉ network, and for 24 node DS derived from the IEEE 34 node test system. Results indicate that 2 to 4 PQ monitors are required for the 15 nodes DS, and 2 to 9 PQ monitors for the 34 DS in order to completely observe the considered PQ disturbances. The allocation methodology presentes itself as an auxiliary tool for the PQ monitoring planning, which may leads to the improvement of the PQ indices.

Ziel dieser Studie war es, die Behandlungsqualität und Behandlungsdauer der Kiefer- orthopädischen Abteilung einer Universitätsklinik zu bestimmen. Dazu wurden die Behandlungsmodelle vor und nach der Behandlung mit Hilfe des PAR (Peer Assess- ment Rating)-Indexes beurteilt. Weiterhin wurden mögliche Einflußgrößen auf die Behandlungsqualität und Behandlungsdauer untersucht. Die Behandlungsunterlagen von 100 fortlaufend abgeschlossenen Patienten (62 weiblich, 38 männlich) wurden retrospektiv ausgewertet. Das durchschnittliche Alter bei Behandlungsbeginn lag bei 14,9 Jahren (7,4 - 42,2 Jahre). Am häufigsten wurde die Behandlung im Alter von 9 oder 10 Jahren begonnen, 24 Patienten waren er- wachsen. Die Angle-Klasse II (71%) war am zahlreichsten vertreten, gefolgt von der Angle-Klasse I (21%) und der Klasse III (8%). 77 Patienten versäumten vereinbarte Termine, 38 Patienten mußten wegen ungenügender Mitarbeit ermahnt werden. Es kam ein breites Spektrum kieferorthopädischer Behandlungsgeräte zum Einsatz. Bei 95 Patienten wurde eine festsitzende Apparatur verwendet. Bei 52 Patienten er- folgte die Behandlung ausnahmslos mit dieser Apparatur, 33 Patienten wurden auf- einanderfolgend mit herausnehmbaren und festsitzenden Geräten behandelt und 10 Patienten kombiniert kieferorthopädisch und kieferchirurgisch. Nur 5 Patienten wur- den ausschließlich mit herausnehmbaren funktionskieferorthopädischen Geräten the- rapiert. Bei 31 Patienten wurden während der kieferorthopädischen Behandlung Zähne extrahiert. Der PAR Wert vor Behandlungsbeginn lag für die Gesamtgruppe bei durchschnittlich 23,9 Punkten. Der PAR Wert nach Behandlungsende lag bei 5,2. Die prozentuale Verbesserung betrug 75,6%. 65 Patienten hatten nach Behandlungsende einen PAR Wert ? 5 und 89 Patienten einen PAR Wert ? 10. Nur 4 Patienten erreichten einen PAR Wert von null. Die Verteilung der Patienten auf die einzelnen Verbesserungs- Kategorien lautete: greatly improved" 33 Patienten, improved" 65 Patienten, worse - no different" 2 Patienten. Auf die Behandlungsqualität hatte keiner der untersuchten Faktoren (Behandlungsmittel, Extraktion/Nichtanlage, Angle-Klasse, Mitarbeit und Geschlecht) einen signifikanten Einfluß. Die mittlere Behandlungsdauer aller Patienten betrug 39,1 Monate (8 - 85 Monate). Auf die Behandlungsdauer hatten von den untersuchten Faktoren (PAR Anfangswert, Behandlungsmittel, Extraktion/Nichtanlage, Angle-Klasse, Mitarbeit, Geschlecht und Alter bei Behandlungsbeginn) der PAR Anfangswert bei festsitzender Behandlung, die Behandlungsmittel, die Mitarbeit und das Alter bei Behandlungsbeginn einen signifikanten Einfluß. Die Behandlung mit herausnehmbaren und anschließend fest- sitzenden Apparaturen dauerte mit durchschnittlich 56,2 Monaten erwartungsgemäß am längsten. Die alleinige Behandlung mit festsitzenden Apparaturen benötigte im Schnitt 30,3 Monate, eine kieferorthopädisch-kieferchirurgische Kombinationsthera- pie beanspruchte 27,1 Monate. Extraktionen und/oder Nichtanlagen zeigten Tenden- zen zu längeren Behandlungszeiten. Jüngere Patienten benötigten eine signifikant längere Behandlungszeit. / The aim of this study was to assess the treatment standards and treatment time in a university clinic. Pre-treatment and post-treatment study casts were assessed by the PAR (Peer Assessment Rating) Index. The influence of various factors upon treat- ment quality and treatment duration was analysed. The treatment records of 100 consecutively finished patients (62 females and 38 males) were evaluated retrospectively. The mean age was 14.9 years (7.4 42.2 years) at the pre-treatment stage. Most of the patients were between the ages of 9 and 10 years old, 24 patients were over the age of 18. At the start of treatment, 71 patients had an Angle Class II, 21 an Angle Class I and 8 patients an Angle Class III. There were 77 patients who failed at least once to show up for their appointments and 38 patients had negative chart entries regarding appliance wear. There was a wide range of appliance types used in this sample. The treatment involved fixed appliances for 95 patients. 52 patients were treated only with this type of appliance, 33 were treated with removable and fixed appliances successively and 5 patients were treated solely with removable functional appliances. 10 patients received combined orthodontic treatment and orthognatic surgery. 31 patients had extractions of permanent teeth as part of their treatment. The average pre- and post-treatment PAR scores were 23.9 and 5.2, repectively. The mean percentage reduction in PAR score was 75.6%. Post-treatment, 65 patients fell in the 0-5 PAR score group and 89 patients had a PAR score of 10 or less. However, only 4 patients scored 0 at the end of treatment. 33 patients have been "greatly im- proved", 65 patients "improved" and 2 ranked "worse or no different". Of all the fac- tors examined (type of therapy, extractions/agenesis, Angle Classes, compliance and gender) none showed a significant influence on post-treatment PAR scores. The mean treatment duration was 39.1 months (8 - 85 months). When treatment time was analysed, with all the factors examined (pre-treatment PAR score, type of treat- ment, extractions/agenesis, Angle Classes, compliance, gender and age at treatment start) only pre-treatment PAR score in the fixed appliance group, type of treatment, compliance and age at treatment start, were significantly related. As expected, the sequence of removable and fixed appliances required the longest treatment time (56.2 months). Fixed appliance therapy alone took 30.3 months, a combination of orthodontics and orthognatic surgery lasted for 27.1 months on average. Extractions and/or congenitally missing permanent teeth showed a tendency to higher treatment times. Inadequate compliance did significantly prolong treatment duration. Younger patients required longer treatment times.

Therefore, focusing on the constitutional tutelage of the civil procedure, and the impossibility of conceiving the procedural dictates disengaged from constitutional law, the necessary premises regarding the development of the study were established, with a brief approach to the access to Justice principle, allocating special attention to the evolution of the concept and the scope attributed to it, following the yearnings of the modern procedural theories, demonstrating that it is inherent to the principle the notion of the effectiveness of the process, which must constitute an adequate mean to the realization, on the factual level, of the substantive rights proclaimed by the State and, yet, comprising the content of the reasonable duration of the process guarantee. From them on, the paper addresses the possibility of the anticipated decision regarding the ripe aspect of the merit, de lege lata, even before the creation of the Civil Procedure Code of 2015, highlighting the dispute around article 273, §6º, of the Civil Procedure Code of 1973. Following that, the study centers on the definition of the judicial rulings with relevant decisional content (interlocutory decision and judgement) within the Brazilian legal order, deriving from an attempt of framing the partial decision of the merit within one of these species of jurisdictional ruling, considering the civil procedural system of 1973, alongside the changes promoted over it, addressing the difficulties involved in such task, the consequences of this position on the appeals and also relative to the motions to set aside judgement, as well as aspects on the execution of the ruling. The final chapter is aimed at the New Civil Procedure Code provisions which keep compatibility with the immediate decision of the ripe aspect of the merit, in order to clearly demonstrate how some innovations brought upon maintain harmony with the attendance of the access to Justice principle contents, without leaving the necessary criticism to the perpetuation of the uproar or inadequate destination, in certain points, of different rules on total and partial judgment of the merit / A dissertação envolve um exame da temática do julgamento antecipado da parcela madura do mérito, calcado na estreita observância ao princípio constitucional do acesso à justiça, considerado em sua inteireza. Assim, com enfoque na tutela constitucional do processo civil e na impossibilidade de se conceber os ditames processuais de forma desarraigada do direito constitucional, foram estabelecidas as premissas necessárias ao desenvolvimento do estudo, com uma breve abordagem do princípio do acesso à justiça, destinando especial atenção à evolução de seu conceito e à extensão que a ele atribuída, de acordo com os anseios da moderna processualística, mostrando ser a ele inerente a ideia de efetividade do processo, que deve constituir um meio adequado para a realização, no plano fático, dos direitos substantivos proclamados pelo Estado, e, ainda, englobando o conteúdo da garantia de razoável duração do processo. A partir de então, o trabalho aborda a admissão do julgamento antecipado da parcela madura do mérito, de lege lata, mesmo antes do advento do Código de Processo Civil de 2.015, destacando-se a celeuma envolvendo o artigo 273, § 6º, do Código de Processo Civil de 1.973. Em seguida, o estudo é centrado na definição dos pronunciamentos jurisdicionais com conteúdo decisório relevante (decisão interlocutória e sentença) no ordenamento jurídico brasileiro, partindo para uma tentativa de enquadramento da decisão parcial de mérito numa dessas espécies de provimento jurisdicional, considerado o sistema processual civil de 1973, com as reformas nele empreendidas, abordando-se as dificuldades que isso envolve, as consequências recursais e relativas à ação rescisória do posicionamento adotado, bem como aspectos sobre a execução da decisão. O capítulo final é destinado às previsões do Novo Código de Processo Civil relacionadas ao julgamento imediato da parcela madura do mérito, a fim de deixar patente como algumas das inovações perpetradas guardam consonância com o conteúdo do princípio do acesso à justiça, sem descurar da necessária crítica à perpetuação de celeumas ou inadequada destinação, em determinados pontos, de tratamento diferenciado ao julgamento total e ao parcial do mérito

Whereas the theme is recent in Brazilian law and given the lack of works about it, the searchs were subsidied in Spanish law, in French law, in Italian law and European Court of human rights. We discussed the right to "reasonable term" and also that kind of responsibility in the countries mentioned, and in their courts too. In all countries analysed the violation of this right results in State responsibility, with the consequent damages reparation. It was seen also the definition of justice deny. In our law, we have been studying the origins of speedy procedure . The tradition of the courts is to deny State liability due to judicial activity, with arguments like sovereignty, iudicata, independence of judges and fallibility, we refute them all, notably with the most recent courts decisions of the countries of the european continent. In conclusion, we figured out that we can blame the Brazilian State for damage caused by unreasonable duration of the process / O presente estudo tem por objetivo analisar a responsabilidade do Estado resultante da violação ao direito a razoável duração do processo judicial. Considerando que o tema é recente no direito brasileiro e dado a falta de obras especializadas, buscamos subsídios no direito espanhol, no direito francês, no direito italiano e na Corte europeia dos direitos do homem. Analisamos o direito ao prazo razoável e também a responsabilidade nos países citados e na, respectiva, Corte. Em todos os países analisados a violação a esse direito enseja na responsabilidade do Estado, com a consequente reparação dos danos. Verificamos também a definição de denegação de justiça. Em nosso direito, estudamos as origens da celeridade processual até os dias atuais. A tradição dos Tribunais é negar a responsabilidade do Estado decorrente da atividade jurisdicional, com argumentos na soberania, coisa julgada, independência dos juízes e falibilidade humana, rebatemos todos, notadamente com as decisões mais recentes das Cortes dos países do continente europeu. Desta forma, concluímos que é possível responsabilizar o Estado brasileiro pelos danos provocados pela irrazoável duração do processo

No. of bitstreams: 1 ABILIO WOLNEY AIRES NETO.pdf: 1818311 bytes, checksum: 2c88d17cd63dd5cf393a12535ad19234 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2012-10-19 / The present study aims at the analysis of Constitutional Amendment No. 45/2004, which entered the principle of reasonable duration of the process within the fundamental guarantees assured to each individual and is insculpido in item LXXVIII of art. 5, of the Constitution of 1988, in view of the judicial protection must be effective, timely and appropriate. It is seen that this issue is of paramount importance, since the introduction of the term reasonable in adjudication as a constitutional principle brings a commitment of the state to the citizen in order to give greater effectiveness to the process and ensure the fundamental right of access to justice . To reach this conclusion, we used literature search, legislative, administrative and judicial, with theoretical frameworks in several authors, starting with Barroso and converging into arguments which support the applicability of this Amendment, from a historical analysis (ontological) and evaluative (axiological). Then, there was the jurisprudential research on the subject in the main Brazilian courts, celing in the Superior Courts, to then undertake a comparative analysis with the bibliographic material. The importance of the principle stands out as a precondition for full citizenship in Democratic States of law, guaranteeing citizens the realization of their rights are constitutionally guaranteed. The principles of speed and duration of the process should be applied with observation of the principles of reasonableness and proportionality, ensuring that the process does not extend beyond the reasonable deadline, nor will compromise other principles such as defense and full of contradiction. It is certain, however - and for the benefit of people who need an effective justice - that Constitutional Amendment 45/04 (which among other novelties inserted explicitly the principle of reasonable duration of the process) seeks to reform the judiciary means for ensuring that become more agile and stronger, which is essential in a society like ours so devoid of enforcing rights to citizens. The current concern guiding procedures and the right to a speedy and effective duration of the process, summons us to an analysis of the role of the National Council of Justice - CNJ and programs, like the "Update" in the Goiás FONAJE and Process Judicial E-EO, as these tools, among others, that result in responses necessary for today's social and economic problems. On the other hand, alternative means of conflict resolution, complementary to the formal judicial process, even because of its informality and adaptability, suggest the solution many cases, in the antechambers of mediation and conciliation (consensus building). It would be a paradigm shift, erecting alternative model judicialization as a counter-archetype adjunct to mitigate the culture of demanda.Daí the idea of the Courts or adoptive Forums Multiport as promoting integrative means for the settlement of disputes. The traditional process would be for more complex cases, adapting to the American experience to our reality, given the similarity. / O presente estudo tem por objeto a analise da Emenda Constitucional nº 45/2004, que inseriu o princípio da razoável duração do processo dentro das garantias fundamentais asseguradas a cada indivíduo e está insculpido no inciso LXXVIII, do art. 5º, da Constituição Federal de 1988, na perspectiva de que a tutela jurisdicional deve ser efetiva, tempestiva e adequada. Vê-se que tal questão é de suma importância, vez que a introdução do prazo razoável na prestação jurisdicional como princípio constitucional traz um compromisso do Estado para com o cidadão a fim de dar maior efetividade ao processo e garantir o direito fundamental de acesso à Justiça. Para chegar a essa conclusão, utilizou-se pesquisa bibliográfica, legislativa, administrativa e jurisprudencial, com marcos teóricos em diversos autores, iniciando-se com Barroso e confluindo para argumentos que sirvam de suporte à aplicabilidade da referida Emenda, a partir de uma análise histórica (ontológica) e valorativa (axiológica). Em seguida, foi feita a pesquisa jurisprudencial relativa ao tema nos principais tribunais brasileiros, máxime nos Tribunais Superiores, para então proceder a uma análise comparativa com o material bibliográfico. A importância do princípio se destaca como pressuposto para o exercício pleno da cidadania nos Estados Democráticos de Direito, garantindo aos cidadãos a concretização dos direitos que lhes são constitucionalmente assegurados. Os princípios da celeridade e da duração do processo devem ser aplicados com observação aos princípios da razoabilidade e da proporcionalidade, assegurando que o processo não se estenda além do prazo razoável, nem tampouco venha comprometer outros princípios como o da plena defesa e do contraditório. É certo, porém e para benefício da população que necessita de uma justiça efetiva que pela Emenda Constitucional 45/04 (que dentre outras novidades inseriu expressamente o princípio da duração razoável do processo) procura-se reformar o Poder Judiciário garantindo meios para que se torne mais ágil e fortalecido, o que é fundamental em uma sociedade como a nossa tão carente da efetivação de direitos aos cidadãos. A preocupação atual que norteia os procedimentos e o direito a uma rápida e eficaz duração do processo, nos convoca a uma análise do papel do Conselho Nacional de Justiça CNJ e de Programas, a exemplo do Atualizar , em Goiás do FONAJE e do Processo Judicial Eletrônico PJE, estes como ferramentas, dentre outras, que resultam em repostas necessárias aos problemas sociais e econômicos hodiernos. De outro lado, os meios alternativos de solução dos conflitos, complementares ao processo judicial formal, em razão mesmo da sua informalidade e adaptabilidade, sugerem a solução de muitos casos, nas antecâmaras de mediação e conciliação (consensus building). Seria uma mudança de paradigmas, erigindo alternativa ao modelo de judicialização como um contra-arquétipo coadjuvante para mitigar a cultura da demanda.Daí a idéia adotiva dos Tribunais ou Fóruns Multiportas, como promoção de meios integrativos para a solução das controvérsias. O processo tradicional ficaria para os casos de maior complexidade, adaptando-se a experiência norteamericana à nossa realidade, dada a similitude.

Para a concretização da tutela jurisdicional, é necessário que tais práticas, além de estarem em conformidade com a segurança do ordenamento jurídico e, capazes de efetivarem o direito fundamental a razoável duração do processo, contribuam, de forma efetiva, com os objetivos traçados pela Constituição. A audiência preliminar será investigada como um instrumento processual capaz de evitar dilações indevidas no decorrer dos processos, seja mediante a possibilidade de conciliação entre as partes, seja por meio do saneamento do processo. Permite a participação mais ativa dos agentes do processo, através do uso da oralidade. Neste sentido, compõe um sistema processual dinâmico, permitindo o “acesso à justiça” em sentido amplo, contemplando ao povo, a adjetivação de cidadão e difundindo a democracia participativa como proposta de Estado a ser adotada para a sociedade contemporânea. Nesse contexto, se pode vislumbrar que o dispositivo do art.331 do Código de Processo Civil Brasileiro, contribui com a efetividade do direito fundamental à razoável duração do processo, objetivando a redução da demora processual injustificável. Para tanto, cabe aos magistrados utilizarem-se de uma interpretação hermenêutica dos ditames constitucionais conjugada com os fatores externos que irão influenciá-lo. A problematização em questão pretende estudar a sociedade no momento atual, onde anseia pela consagração do direito fundamental ao processo em tempo razoável, o qual deve ser promovido por parte do Estado, já que o mesmo lhe consagrou constitucionalmente com o advento da EC 45/2004. Nesse contexto, cabe ao Estado responder pela demora injustificada dos tempos processuais. E a reparação deve manifestar-se através da indenização em favor do cidadão que teve seu direito tolhido, por conseqüência de um ato estatal, ou, no caso da audiência preliminar, sua inércia. / The proposal to develop the judicial procedures without undue delay should be developed through practices that are in accordance with the constitutional dictates. For the completion of judicial review, it is necessary that such practices, and comply with the safety of the legal system and able to enforce the fundamental right to a reasonable duration of the process, contribute, effectively, to the goals set by Constitution. The preliminary hearing will be investigated as a procedural tool that will prevent undue delays during the process, either through the possibility of conciliation between the parties, either through the restructuring process. Allows more active participation of the process’s, through the use of orality. In this sense, forms a dynamic procedural system, allowing "access to justice" in a broad sense, covering the people, the adjective of citizen participatory democracy and spreading as a proposed rule to be adopted to contemporary society. In this context, we can see that the machinery of article 331 of the Brazilian Civil Procedure Code, contributes to the effectiveness of the fundamental right of a reasonable duration of the process, aiming at the reduction of procedural delay unjustifiable. For this, use it to judges is a hermeneutic interpretation of constitutional principles coupled with external factors which will influence him, adopting the theory as formalism evaluative procedures. The questioning concerned intends to study the society at present, which yearns for the consecration of the fundamental right to process in reasonable time, which should be promoted by the state, since the constitutionally enshrined it even with the advent of constitutional emendment 45/2004. In this context, the State must answer for the undue delay of the procedural time. And the repair should be manifested through indemnity in favor of the citizen who had checked his right, as a consequence of a state act, or, if the preliminary hearing, his inertia.

Two phases construct the experiment, with fifteen experimental sessions and two sessions in extinction on each phase. For the rats randomized to Chain II Group, when Phase 1 was initiated, the duration of the light was initially the same of the delay, but was reduced gradually across phase until it was no longer present with the delay period. For rats randomized to Chain III Group, there was no delay signal initially, but its duration was increased across phase until it equalized the duration of the programmed delay (4 s). The duration of the delay signal was always the same of the delay for the rats employed on Chain I Group, while the was no delay signal for rats randomized to Tand Group. With the rats randomized to the Control Group there was no delay on reinforcement. Within subjects, response rates where higher as the duration of the delay signal increased, with the highest acceleration when its duration was minimal. Response rates where higher also to prior rates when the duration of the delay signal was reduced, with the highest acceleration when its duration was minimal. The findings are discussed in terms of the conditioned reinforcement of the delay signal by reduction the delay between its onset and the reinforcer / Quinze ratos foram distribuídos em cinco grupos com o objetivo de avaliar os efeitos de diferentes durações de luz, que eram apresentadas durante o período de atraso, sobre a aquisição e manutenção da resposta de pressão à barra com atraso de reforço, sem modelagem dessa resposta. O estudo foi dividido em duas fases com dezessete sessões cada (quinze sessões experimentais e duas em extinção). Na Fase 1, para os sujeitos do Grupo Encadeado III, a luz não estava presente nas sessões iniciais. Com o decorrer das sessões, a duração da luz foi aumentada gradualmente até que a sua duração cobrisse todo o período de atraso. Para os sujeitos do Grupo Encadeado II, duração da luz equivalia à totalidade do período de atraso nas sessões iniciais, sendo reduzida gradualmente a sua duração ao longo das sessões até não haver luz durante o período. Nas sessões dos sujeitos do Grupo Tandem não havia luz durante o período de atraso, enquanto nas sessões dos sujeitos do Grupo Encadeado I a duração luz sempre cobria a totalidade do período. Já nas sessões dos sujeitos do Grupo Controle não havia atraso de reforço. Decorrida a Fase 1, o período de atraso foi aumentado de 4 s para 8 s e iniciou-se a Fase 2, idêntica à anterior. Foi observada, em ambas as fases, um aumento na taxa de emissões e de reforços produzidos pelos sujeitos do Grupo Encadeado III na medida que a duração da luz era aumentada, com um aumento maior em ambas as fases quando a luz tinha sua duração mínima. Do mesmo modo, foi notado um pequeno aumento na taxa de emissões e de reforços produzidos pelos sujeitos do Grupo Encadeado II a partir da redução na duração da luz, com aumento maior quando a duração da luz era mínima. Os resultados do presente estudo foram discutidos a partir da noção de reforçador condicionado e da hipótese da redução do atraso proposta por Fantino (1969, 1977)

No contexto de Smart Grids, determinar a correta localização das fontes causadoras de Variação de Tensão de Curta Duração (VTCD) não é uma tarefa simples, devido à curta duração destes eventos e também, por sua rápida propagação nas redes de distribuição de energia elétrica. Neste sentido, esse trabalho apresentou um método híbrido recursivo baseado em ferramentas da área de aprendizado de máquinas (algoritmo de agrupamento e base de regras), o qual é capaz de localizar as fontes de VTCD, a partir da análise dos das características dos distúrbios disponibilizadas pelos smart meters instalados no sistema. Assim, o trabalho destinouse ao desenvolvimento de uma plataforma em hardware para aquisição, detecção e classificação dos distúrbios, através de um Sistema Operacional de Tempo Real. Em seguida o algoritmo de agrupamento (k-means) agrupou os dados dos medidores de forma a definir dois clusters, onde um deles correspondeu aos medidores que estão longe da região que ocorreu o distúrbio e o outro, correspondeu aos medidores que estavam localizados próximos da região de ocorrência do distúrbio. Na segunda etapa, um sistema baseado em regras determinou qual dos clusters abrangeu o nó de origem. No entanto, quando o algoritmo determinou uma região muito grande, essa região é introduzida recursivamente, como entrada da metodologia desenvolvida, para refinar a região de localização. O sistema resultante foi capaz de estimar a região de localização com uma taxa de acerto acima de 90%. Assim, o método teve sua concepção adequada ao empregado nos centros de controle e operações de concessionárias de energia elétrica, visando apoiar a decisão do corpo técnico para que ações corretivas fossem estabelecidas de forma assertiva. / In the Smart Grids context, the correct location of short-duration voltage variations sources is not a trivial task, because of the short duration of these events and for rapid propagation in the distribution feeder. In this sense, aiming to develop a recursive hybrid method based on machine learning area tools (clustering algorithm and rule base) that is able to locate the sources of short-duration voltage variations, it was used data from smart meters installed along the distribution feeder. The recursive hybrid method, as input, received the disturbance characteristics provided by the meters installed in the system. Thus, this thesis aimed to development of a measurement hardware for signal acquisition, detection, classification through a realtime operating system. Then, k-means clustering algorithm grouped the meters data in order to define two clusters, where one of them corresponded to the meters that were distant from the region that occurred the disturbance and the other one corresponded to the meters, which were located near to the disturbance occurrence region. In a second step, a rule-based system determined which of the clusters corresponded to the source node. When the algorithm determined a very large region, that region was recursively introduced as input of the developed methodology to decrease its size. The resulting system was able to estimate the location region with a accuracy above 90%. Therefore, this method showed a suitable design for employment by operation control centers of power sector concessionaires, aiming to support technical staff decision to stablish assertive corrective actions.

In the archaeological literature, mountains are often portrayed as the boundaries between inhabited spaces. Yet occupying high elevations may have been an adaptive choice for ancient peoples, as rapidly changing elevations also offer variation in climate and resources over a relatively small area. So what happens, instead, if we put mountain landscapes at the center of our analyses of prehistoric seasonal rounds and ecological adaptation? This Ph.D. argues that, in order to understand any landscape that includes mountains, from the Alps to the Andes, one must include the ecology and archaeology of the highest elevations. Specifically, I base my findings on new fieldwork and lithic collections from the Absaroka and Beartooth Mountains in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) of the Rocky Mountains, which was a vital crossroads of prehistoric cultures for more than 11,000 years. I include five interlocking analyses. First, I consider the impacts of anthropogenic climate change on high elevation cultural resources, focusing on the diminishing resiliency of ancient high elevation ice patches and the loss of the organic artifacts and paleobiological materials they contain. Second, I create a dichotomous key for chronologically typing projectile points, suggesting a methodological improvement for typological dating in the GYE and for surface archaeology more broadly. Third, I use obsidian source data to consider whether mountain people were a single, unified group or were represented by a variety of peoples with different zones of land tenure. Fourth, I consider high elevation occupation in both mountain ranges as part of the seasonal round, using indices of diversity in tool types and raw material to study how the duration of those occupations changed through time. And, finally, I test the common contention that ancient people primarily used mountains as refugia from extreme climatic pressure at lower elevations. Ultimately, I find that, in both mountain ranges, increased high elevation activity is most highly correlated with increased population, not with hot, dry climatic conditions. In other words, the mountains were more than simply refugia for plains or basin people to occupy when pressured by climatic hardship. In addition, between the Absarokas and the Beartooths the evidence suggests two different patterns of occupation, not a monolithic pan-mountain adaptation. These results demonstrate the potential contributions of surface archaeology to our understanding of prehistory, and have important implications for the way we think about mountain landscapes as peopled spaces in relation to adjacent lower-elevation areas.
