The environmental and social impacts of the degradation of water quality due to anthropogenic action have increased alarmingly over the years. Due to the complexity of contaminants, textile effluents are considered very harmful to the environment, and their proper disposal is a current concern. The general objective of this work was to evaluate the efficiency of ceramic membranes based on clay and sugarcane bag...
Elastic optimal networks appeared as an alternative to traditional WDM optimal networks, where the optimal spectrum is organized in static wavelengths. Recent technologies allowed for a new way of using the optical spectrum, dividing it in low traffic rate subcarrier bands that admit orthogonality overlap (OFDM). This new approach motivated the need of developing novel algorithms that should be designed to cope w...
With the increase in the number of devices connected to the Internet, the speed and dynamismintheexchangeofinformationbecamemorerelevant,alongwithgreaterinteractivity between the communication parties. Although such an increase has brought immediate convergence in the exchange of information, one of the biggest side effects of this new Internet model, known as the Internet of Things, is the incresing facility f...

The circulation of multiple viruses transmitted by Aedesaegypti and the absence of vaccines represents a worrying scenario, greatly increasing the need to seek successful strategies in mosquito control. The levels of vector infestation associated with viral circulation confirm the need for monitoring as an important surveillance tool because of the demonstrated ability to indicate risk of epidemic. Therefore, t...
Urbanization in coastal zones makes it necessary to assess the anthropic impact on associated ecosystems. The management of coastal areas with corals reefs and the environmental policies involved influence the types of uses and, consequently, the reef conservation status. The objective of this work is to analyze the managements and the conservation status of the reefs of João Pessoa/PB and Cabedelo/PB, trying t...
The use of plants for the treatment of diseases among humans is historically old. Even today, in the face of the advance of modern medicine, the use of plants for therapeutic purposes is still seen in many human groups as an alternative, both for cultural and economic issues, especially in rural areas and in developing countries. The objective of the present study is to record and analyze the use and knowledge ...
