Models and Frameworks: A Synergistic Association for Developing Component-Based Applications by Diego Alonso, Francisco Sánchez-Ledesma, Pedro Sánchez, Juan A. Pastor, Bárbara Álvarez

“…Thus, the approach combines the benefits of modeling applications from a higher level of abstraction than objects, with the higher levels of code reuse provided by frameworks. In order to illustrate the benefits of the proposed approach, two representative case studies that use both an existing framework and an ad hoc framework, are described. …”

The battle of the Zé Gotinhas: The schismogenesis of images and political audiences on Brazilian social media by Kelly Cristiane da Silva, Fábio de Oliveira Martins

“…The conflict over different versions of Zé Gotinha published at the beginning of Covid-19 vaccination - one produced by the illustrator and designer-activist Cristiano Siqueira, another commissioned by Eduardo Bolsonaro, a federal deputy and a son of the former president-inserted in the context of a semiological guerrilla war, allows us to examine the different images as, simultaneously, part of a confrontation that begins with the images and ends in the structural forces perpetuating the schismogenesis between allies of the former president and his adversaries. …”
