    Un Dominio De Internet Es Una Red De Identificación Asociada a Un Grupo De Disposi Tivos O Equipos Conectados a La Red Internet

    Un dominio de Internet es una red de identificación asociada a un grupo de disposi tivos o equipos conectados a la red Internet. El propósito principal de los nombres de dominio en Internet y del sistema de nomb res de dominio (DNS), es traducir las direcciones IP de cada nodo activo en la r ed, a términos memorizables y fáciles de encontrar. Esta abstracción hace posible que cualquier servicio (de red) pueda moverse de un lugar geográfico a otro en la red Internet, aún cuando el cambio implique que tendrá una dirección IP diferente.1 Sin la ayuda del sistema de nombres de dominio, los usuarios de Internet tendrían que acceder a cada servicio web utilizando la dirección IP del modo (por ejemplo, sería necesario utilizar http://192.0.32.10 en vez de http://example.com). Además, r educiría el número de webs posibles, ya que actualmente es habitual que una misma di rección IP sea compartida por varios dominios. Dominios de nivel superior[editar] Cuando se creó el Sistema de Nombres de Dominio en los años 1980, el espacio de nomb res se dividió en dos grupos. El primero incluye los dominios territoriales, basad os en los dos caracteres de identificación de cada territorio de acuerdo a las abr eviaciones del ISO-3166 (ej. *.do, *.mx), denominados ccTLD (country code top le vel domain o «dominio de nivel superior geográfico»). El segundo grupo incluye dominio s de nivel superior genéricos (gTLD), que representan una serie de nombres y multi organizaciones. Inicialmente, estos dominios fueron: COM, NET, ORG, EDU, GOB y M IL, a los que posteriormente se unieron otros.

  • Learning Curve During Survey in Antarctica

    Learning Curve During Survey in Antarctica

    ARTICLE COLOMBIA€™S FIRST SCIENTIFIC EXPEDITION TO ANTARCTICA Learning Curve during Survey in Antarctica The first Colombian scientific expedition to Antarctica was a major challenge for the country and the Colombian Hydrographic Survey organisation because of the extreme conditions in which the investigations had to be carried out. It is Colombia’s vision to contribute to the preservation of the 'White Continent'. The preparation and the professionalism of the scientists and crew were critical to achieving the objective of the cruise: to become part of the Antarctic Treaty. This objective has been set out to the member countries of the ’Antarctic Treaty’ in Document 104. Within the Antarctic Treaty Colombia intends to change its status, from an observer country to a consultative treaty country. This resulted in the preparation of the first Colombian expedition to Antarctica. During the preparatory meetings of the expedition, we listened and took note of the recommendations made by the Hydrographic Services of Ecuador, the Hydrographic Service of Chile and the Chilean Antarctic Institute INACH, institutions with extensive experience in research in these latitudes. Each meeting and each recommendation increased our anxiety and fears to explore the unknown, but at the same time, we were encouraged to ultimately prepare ourselves for this challenge. The hydrographic research was coordinated by the Chilean Hydrographic Service and was to result in the delivery of bathymetric information in four areas in the Gerlache Strait, specifically to the nautical chart INT 9103 SHOA / CHILE Bay Markmann to Andrvord Bay. Only 10% of the Antarctic waters are mapped, so this hydrographic survey will be an important contribution to the maritime security in this region, which can be used by all countries practicing tourism or conducting research in this area.

After two and a half decades of mostly military rule, a freely elected civilian government came to power in 1982. During the 1980s, Honduras proved a haven for anti-Sandinista contras fighting the Marxist Nicaraguan Government and an ally to Salvadoran Government forces fighting leftist guerrillas. The country was devastated by Hurricane Mitch in 1998, which killed about 5,600 people and caused approximately $2 billion in damage. Since then, the economy has slowly rebounded.

The IMB is a non-profit making organisation, established in 1981 to act as a focal point in the fight against all types of maritime crime and malpractice. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) in its resolution A 504 (XII) (5) and (9) adopted on 20 November 1981, has inter alia, urged governments, interest groups and organizations to co- operate and exchange information with each other and the IMB, with a view of maintaining and developing a coordinated action in combating maritime fraud. Outrage in the shipping industry at the alarming growth in piracy, prompted the creation of the IMB Piracy Reporting Centre (IMB PRC) in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia in October 1992.

  • Geography and Vexillology: Landscapes in the Flags

    Geography and Vexillology: Landscapes in the Flags

    Geography and vexillology: landscapes in flags By Tiago José Berg Abstract This paper aims to present how the national flags have on its symbo - lism a representation of landscape. In geography, both in academic levels as well as in school teaching, landscape takes on a central theme that has so far been the subject of scientific debate of great importance by geographers as a way of seeing the world and a form of representing a specific surface of the Earth. In vexillology, the symbolism of the modern nation-state has developed a number of examples where the arrangement of stripes (or even the coat of arms) of some national flags bring certain aspects that are not immediately apparent, but they may become beautiful examples of a stylized representation of the landscape. Therefore, in this paper we seek a dialogue between geography and vexillology, showing how the representation of landscape in the flags can become a relevant theme to be used in academic research and a fascinating resource to enrich the teaching in schools. Introduction The last decades of the twentieth century saw the revival of interest in studies of the landscape geographers, both the number of publications, the associations made with the theme. The landscape, rather than a return to “classical geography” or even the new perspectives presented by the cultural geography, back to being inserted in geographical studies with a different approach. Both in academic level as well as in school education, the landscape takes on a theme that has been the subject of scien - tific debate of great importance by geographers as a way of seeing the world and a way of representing the specific surface of the Earth.
