A pretensão do neodesenvolvimentismo de pleitear a continuidade do desenvolvimentismo não encontra nenhum fundamento objetivo. As duas expressões do pensamento econômico correspondem a épocas históricas distintas e representam espectros ideológicos opostos. Ao identificar a realidade da economia brasileira contemporânea com o desenvolvimento capitalista virtuoso, o novo desenvolvimentista revela‑se tal qual é - uma apologia do poder. Não passa de um esforço provinciano para dar roupa nova à velha teoria da modernização como solução para os graves problemas das populações que vivem no elo fraco do sistema capitalista mundial.

Porting is a critical task in mobile device game development. The high diversity of devices requires correspondingly customized versions of a single game. Managing the variabilities among these customized versions while exploring the latent game commonality cannot be solely addressed with a single technique. This paper contributes to this task by identifying and analyzing porting challenges, and by evaluating and contrasting existing approaches within industrial-strength case studies of J2ME games. Further, we present lessons learned, proposing more effective guidelines for this process, aiming at improving the quality of the resulting applications and porting process productivity.

This paper presents the on-going work using a formal approach for the design of Interactive Multimedia Documents (IMDs) based on the RT-LOTOS formal description technique. The present work extends this approach proposing the scheduling of IMDs based on a simple and operational model obtained as a result from the reachability analysis. One important breakthrough of this model is that it is a scheduling graph that provides the control of the occurrence of non-deterministic events, such as user interactions, within valid temporal intervals so that the global synchronization constraints of the document can be fulfilled during its presentation. Further on, some scheduling policies are also presented based on this model. Finally, we introduce some characteristics of the player actually available for the presentation of IMDs based on this new model.

The paper generalizes previous works of the authors by revisiting the concept of temporal consistency of hypermedia documents. This generalization relies on the distinction of internal and external non-deterministic events.
