This study proposes a lean manufacturing-based optimization model to standardize “Pima cotton” crop yields in the Peruvian coast areas toward the north of Piura as the study area. The study also discusses how Pima cotton is grown in the Peruvian cost areas. This is represented in 2 stages: diagnosis and development of the cotton crop model. The diagnosis stage consists of 3 steps, and the development stage consists of 2 steps. The interrelation of each stage has been identified with the lean manufacturing principle for the improvement of crop yield. Results showed that to increase current crop yield in Piura to 172 bushels/ha as well as determine the quantities of resources and raw materials required considering a standardized crop production process. The limitations of the research depend on the climatic conditions in Peru. The main contribution of this research is to propose a model using which farmers may produce Pima cotton by utilizing the indicators proposed to increase the process control. In addition, the paper proposes a standardized crop production process that farmers must follow, supported by a mathematical model simulation.

In this article, an estimation of seismic risk is established for 40 stations in the city of Lima and Callao, Peru. Technical information was collected from each of the stations and collected in a statistical database. And then, a) the structural fragility and vulnerability were determined, and b) the seismic hazard; for the first aspect, the HAZUS methodology (FEMA) was used, and for the second, the attenuation laws were adapted to the seismic and geographical reality of Peru. The important results, and for each station or structure, are: 1) the point of seismic performance, as a basis for estimating the percentage of structural damage, and 2) estimation of economic losses after a determined seismic event

The purpose of this research is to develop and test a user experience maturity model that provides tools, techniques and practices to improve user satisfaction and increase company revenues. We applied a checklist for four web applications to assure that using 25 tools helps to deliver a great user experience. 50% of them showed more maturity, which was also reflected in the usability and user satisfaction metrics. Moreover, we tested the model on an ecommerce website which showed 38% of maturity during the beginning. After the implementation, the site got 67.5% of maturity.

Multiple factors contribute to the negative experience and disinterest of medical students on the perception of the Microbiology course [1]. In this paper, an Adaptive Serious Game is proposed as a more entertaining educational approach to motivate and to improve the performance of medical students on a Microbiology subject. To achieve that, a Bayesian Network model constructed from expert knowledge and a Role-Playing game design were proposed. To validate our proposal, a playability survey was applied to 36 college students. These students were divided in two groups for evaluating their performance with and without an adaptability feature. Overall, the results suggest the game is attractive, enjoyable and useful tool for learning. Moreover, the use of Bayesian networks contributes to the success performance ratio of the students.

This article presents an architecture proposal that supports the interaction between medical platforms based on open source software. A phased methodology is used for the design of the proposed architecture. The first phase was to collect information, followed by the analysis of medical platforms in Colombia and the definition of characteristics, ending with the design phase of the proposed architecture. The main result is the architectural model for the interaction between clinical platforms. The main conclusion is that the proposed architecture will allow the interoperability of selected medical platforms based on open source software, allowing the implementation in rural areas or health centers in towns with limited financial resources.

The aim of this article is to compare the performance of three image processing techniques for recognizing the tanker in land chemical emergencies. The best algorithm will be part of a future electronic platform for attending chemical emergencies. Such platform should be portable and should allow its installation in different devices, i.e. drones. To be realistic, the images were obtained with a drone. These images were processed via three methods: Hotelling transform, Hu moment invariants, and Signature transform (Distance vs. Angle). The results showed that Hu was the most accurate method, obtaining 86% of accuracy in the tests; followed by Signature with 71%; and the less reliable in this case was Hotelling, with only a 23%. The future platform will not be autonomous, so it will always be supervised by an operator and only help them in the decision-making process. Since this is a small piece of a bigger research, it still has a lot of future work. Data base will be increased, and future improvements in the performance of the algorithm will be tested. Nevertheless, the objective of this paper was achieved as the recognition algorithm worked, with enough accuracy, for the purpose it was aimed to.

The ceramic tile market in Peru had a sustained growth until 2013 when the construction sector began to decline. Added to this phenomenon was greater competition for products from China at prices below the national average, which meant a significant reduction in the sales of Peruvian production companies. In this context, inefficiencies were detected in inventory management within the supply chain, which began to accumulate inventories due to a lack of integration of its actors. On the other hand, the lack of finished product caused a loss of customers and brand loyalty. The importance of maintaining a good management of the supply chain lies in the necessary competitiveness in a company to face the globalized and vertiginous environment that is experienced today where uncertainty increases the risks of loss. Various efforts have sought to improve the performance of the supply chain; However, the strategies have not taken into account relevant aspects such as the organizational culture, which is a fundamental factor in the development of collaborative initiatives. For this reason, this study proposes a collaborative culture management model for inventory management based on the management of inter-organizational change. Through the OCAI tool based on the Competing Values Framework (CVF) it was possible to determine the cultural profile of two companies, alienate them to the appropriate culture for integrated supply chains and manage change based on it. Likewise, cultural integration led to improvements in inventory management in a joint manner, increasing service levels by 9.8% and reducing inventory levels by 37.5%, which proved that cultural integration for the CCS can improve the practices of management in the supply chain.

Throughout history, the industry has presented abrupt changes reflected by new technologies and new ways to perceive the world. These radical changes, due to their deep transformations are denominated revolutions. The first industrial revolution spanned between 1760 - 1830 and the main characteristic was the jump from manual production to mechanical production. The second industrial revolution, took place between 1850 and 1940 and it was recognized due to the development of electricity. The third industrial revolution began in 1943 approximately, and the main technology was the computer. The fourth industrial revolution began in 2011 during the Hanover conference, and it became more important in 2016 during the world economic forum in Davos Switzerland. Its main characteristics are the combination of the physical and the digital world through technologies such as cyber-physical system, internet of things, large information processing, smart factory and cloud computing. An actual research shows that in Colombia micro, small, and medium-sized companies- MSMs- have problems with productivity, exporting capacity and customer service. The main cause for this is that these companies do not use modern technology to optimize their processes. This paper presents results of a research developed with 311 MSMs in Bogotá. The type of research is descriptive. In order to define the sample, it was used probabilistic sampling, with 90% of confidence level and 5% of error range. For information collecting the instrument was a survey applied, directly in the companies. The aim of this research was to identify de current adoption status of fourth industrial revolution strategies by MSMs in Bogotá, and then to have a base line that enables MSMs to be aware of the advantages and challenges of the fourth industrial revolution. In addition, the research proposes an implementation road map of fourth industrial revolution strategies for MSMs in Bogotá. The results show that the MSMs in Bogota do not know what the fourth industrial revolution is about. The main technology used is cloud computing. A conclusion is that, the MSMs in Bogotá are not yet taking advantage of the fourth industrial revolution opportunities.

This work evaluated in the laboratory, the mechanical resistance at 28 days under monotonic load that undergoes a hydraulic concrete when adding contents in weight of 0%, 2%, 3% and 4% of synthetic fibers of Terephthalate Polyethylene (PET) and Polypropylene (PP) on the total weight of the aggregates. From the results obtained, it is concluded that the residual stress increases as a function of the content of synthetic fiber compared to conventional concrete or with 0% addition of synthetic fibers. The presence of fibers can contribute to the reduction of contraction cracks generated in the first 24 hours of concrete hardening and to the increase in ductility after rupture. The technique of the addition of synthetic fibers in concrete is technically feasible by obtaining a reduction in the routine and periodic maintenance of rigid paving slabs
