Cultura e biodiversidade: uma comparação entre a gestão do Parque Nacional do Cabo Orange, no Brasil, e a do Parque Nacional da Vanoise, na França by Nádia Bandeira Sacenco Kornijezuk

“…On the other hand, Brazil is a country of open spaces where biodiversity is, in many cases, the result of a natural evolutionary process. It was found that the Vanoise National Park has directed its administration to reconcile regional development and conservation of natural and cultural heritage, while the Cabo Orange National Parke guards its biodiversity in its most pristine expression possible.…”

A continuous phenotype space model of RNA virus evolution within a host by Andrei Korobeinikov, Conor Dempsey

“…Due to their very high replication and mutation rates, RNA virusescan serve as an excellent testing model for verifying hypothesis andaddressing questions in evolutionary biology.In this paper, we suggest a simple deterministic mathematical modelof the within-host viral dynamics, where a possibility for random mutations incorporates.This model assumes a continuous distribution of viral strainsin a one-dimensional phenotype space where random mutations aremodelled by Brownian motion (that is, by diffusion).Numerical simulations show that randommutations combined with competition for a resource result in evolutiontowards higher Darwinian fitness: a stable pulse traveling waveof evolution, moving towards higher levels of fitness,is formed in the phenotype space.The advantage of this model, compared with the previously constructedmodels, is that this model is mechanistic and is based on commonlyaccepted model of virus dynamics within a host, and thus it allowsan incorporation of features of the real-life host-virus system such as immuneresponse, antiviral therapy, etc.…”

Design of an Adaptive Distributed Critical-Care Extensive Response Network (AD-CERN) Using Cooperative Overlay Network by V. Akilandeswari, S. Mercy Shalinie

“…The proposed network has the following considerations. (1) Dynamic coevolution is elucidated with interaction between independent rational strategies and structure of overlay network. (2) Evolutionary Game Theory (EGT) specific to overlay network is adopted with the combination of network reciprocity and group selection mechanism. (3) The cooperative efficient network structure is put forth by the multinode link-formation game. …”
