Asimismo, han sido una herramienta útil para reducir diferentes obstáculos sociales y económicos que encaran las naciones en vías de desarrollo. Con ello la globalización de Internet ha marcado las pautas para el nuevo paradigma de información y comunicación de las sociedades. De acuerdo a la Organización de las Naciones Unidas (ONU). eligió a Internet como la plataforma para lograr una sociedad basada en la información y conocimiento. asimismo en la reunión de la cumbre mundial sobre la sociedad de la información (2003-2005) se definió que la sociedad bajo este paradigma se encuentra "centrada en la persona"'. quien mediante el uso de Internet puede "crear, consultar, utilizar y compartir información y en mejor grado el conocimiento para que pueda emplear plenamente sus posibilidades en la promoción de su desarrollo sostenible y en la mejora de su calidad de vida" [WOR-00]. Por otro lado, la proliferación de Internet no sólo ha dependido del progreso tecnológico, sino también de las políticas públicas (infraestructura y programas de acceso a las telecomunicaciones para la población), la participación del sector privado y la sociedad en su conjunto. Aprovechar sus beneficios puede llevarnos a un macro efecto para beneficio de toda la esfera social de México; sin embargo dadas las características históricas del elemento político en el ejercicio del poder, ante la tecnología, suelen demorarla. Ésta figura paternalista del estado en nuestras sociedades ha eliminado todo cambio que represente una oportunidad y un reto para salir del atraso tecnológico, que por décadas ha polarizado a la mayoría de la población, abriendo brechas mayores entre las personas que cuentan con niveles dignos de vida y las que no. El presente trabajo de investigación pretende brindar las pautas para adoptar la tecnología de red de Internet inalámbrica metropolitana denominada WiMAX (Worldwide !nteroperability for Microwave Access por sus siglas en inglés o lnteroperabilidad Mundial para Acceso por Microondas) para el Bosque de Chapultepec de la Ciudad de México y con ello brindar nuevos usos a los espacios de la ciudad. El nuevo ambiente pretende ser un lugar para el trabajo, el aprendizaje, estudio, entretenimiento, entre otros propósitos. En mis observaciones, aparece un comportamiento singular del Jefe de Gobierno del Distrito Federal, Marcelo Ebrard Casaubón, interesado en dotar a la ciudadanía gradualmente, una infraestructura con ingredientes propios de la sociedad de la informac,ión y conocimiento, esto lo confirmé en el transcurso de la investigación de la tesis al saber que el Centro Histórico capitalino de la Ciudad de México cuenta ya con redes inalámbricas Wi-Fi (Wireless Fidelity, por su acrónimo en inglés) con el fin de crear una ciudad digital. Ante esta dinámica tecnológica en el contexto de la economía global (basada en la información y conocimiento), para México el desafio es grande ya que implica establecer diversas estrategias sustentables a efecto de ir avanzando hacia el desarrollo económico, social y cultural, del país. Con todos los aspectos mencionados anteriormente, se abre un área de oportunidad para la elaboración de este proyecto. El mismo se divide en cuatro capítulos; el primer capítulo aborda el estado del arte de las telecomunicaciones, la situación de las mismas tanto en la nación sistema México como en el sistema global. Asimismo se hace referencia a los aparatos reguladores encargados de la desregulación, privatización y liberación del sector. El segundo capítulo tiene como propósito analizar la importancia de las Tecnologías de la Información y Comunicación (TIC) como una vía para mejorar la calidad de vida de la sociedad y cuyo propósito ha sido el de avanzar hacia una sociedad de la información y conocimiento; a su vez se definen los ambientes, entornos, espacios, lugares digitales. los cuales serán un lugar abierto para la población. El tercer capítulo hace referencia a las principales tecnologías de redes de datos y se describe la naturaleza de las mismas. Dentro de éste capítulo se aborda las características y tendencias hacia la tecnología inalámbrica, se hace énfasis en la tecnología WiMAX y se aborda una comparación con otras tecnologías existentes. Asimismo se hace referencia a la seguridad en redes inalámbricas, actualmente importante para el manejo y protección de la información, las cuestiones de salud en torno a las transmisiones inalámbricas. con esto último se abordan aspectos relacionados con las ondas electromagnéticas en nuestra salud. En el cuarto y último capítulo, se propone un Modelo Tecnológico Estratégico para la Sociedad

    annual report 2017 fiscal 2017 a good year for Amdocs Board approved dividend increase for fifth consecutive year Amdocs is well positioned to enable our industry’s transition 2 2017 Annual Report 2017 Annual Report 3 letter to shareholders Dear Fellow Shareholders, Communications and media service providers are entering the first stage of a multi-year transition as they transform digitally to improve the customer experience. They are also moving to a virtualized, service- driven network environment in order to accelerate service agility and, in the case of many market leaders, continuing their journey to become “full-service” providers. Such full-service providers seek to furnish their customers with a rich portfolio of offerings including core communications; media, advertising and entertainment; enterprise enablement; internet of things (IoT) and digital lifestyle services. We believe that Amdocs is well positioned in all these spheres to enable this industry transition. Our unique and global perspective, gained through working with the world’s leading operators, enables us to help our customers seize the opportunities of this ever-changing landscape. Fiscal 2017 was a successful year for Amdocs in which we maintained our high win rate, having invested in what we believe are the right strategic engines to support the needs of the world’s largest global carriers as well as innovative operators in smaller markets. Furthermore, we delivered on our long-held reputation for execution, progressing a record number of significant transformation projects toward production. With an eye to the future, we continued to invest in innovation, partnered with cutting-edge companies and became early adopters of new tools and technologies such as DevOps and microservices (decomposing an application into different smaller services to make it easier to develop and test) to maintain our strong market position and extend our product leadership.

  • {Replace with the Title of Your Dissertation}
    Changing Chapultepec: Construction, Consumption, and Cultural Politics in a Mexico City Forest, 1934-1944 A Dissertation SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Andrea Kristine Moerer IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Patrick J. McNamara, Sarah C. Chambers December 2013 © Andrea Kristine Moerer 2013 Acknowledgements As hopefully all are, this dissertation was a labor of love. And much like love, its creation has consisted of episodes of transcendence interspersed among years of hard work and self-doubt. I would not have conceived of or completed this project without the professional advisement of Patrick McNamara and Sarah Chambers. They, in addition to the rest of my committee members: Jeffrey Pilcher, Helga Leitner, and David Chang, were (and are) diligent, supportive, kind, and shockingly brilliant. The faculty at the University of Minnesota's department of history provided a strong foundation not only to this dissertation, but for wider professional goals, and the staff ensured that everything happened on time and with the proper paperwork. Fellow graduate students, particularly Latin Americanists, were wonderful colleagues, passing along Chapultepec citations, commiserating over exams, and providing much-needed moments of levity. As a student, I was fortunate to receive several awards which allowed me to further my thesis, including: GRPP, FLAS, Hannah C. Stocker Fellowship, and an American Society for Environmental History NSF graduate student travel grant. Recently, I've had the privilege of being a visiting instructor at Macalester College and at Hamline University where my colleagues have unquestionably improved not only my teaching but this dissertation.
