Feeding of guinea pigs in the growth phase based on tropical grasses from Morona Santiago

The feeding of guinea pigs in the growth phase based on tropical grasses was developed on the ESPOCH farms Sede Morona Santiago, for which 20 guinea pigs 60 days old were used, which were distributed in five treatments (Tripsacum laxum, Pennisetum sp, Pennisetum purpureum and Axonopus scoparius) including the control and four repetitions, each experimental unit was made up of one animal, which had an average weight of 409.6 g. to which they were randomly housed in an individual metabolic cage to observe the productive behavior and use of the pasture, and to assign the treatments at random to each guinea pig. Dehydrated feed was supplied daily after recording its weight, in the same way forage residues and excreta were weighed, data that were used for the analysis. Once the information obtained was compiled and processed, it was possible to notice that the weight of the guinea pigs after 60 days of investigation, consumption of dry matter, quantity of feces produced, and dry matter used did not register significant differences, but the use of protein, fat, fiber, Acid Detergent Fiber (FDA) and neutral detergent fiber (FDN) registered statistical differences. Concluding that the balance has a greater amount of protein and fat used, although the fiber content is scarce, in the same way the availability of FDN and FDA in the Tripsacum laxum grass is in a lower proportion when contrasting with the other grasses used in the investigation.

Electronic methods for obtaining IP addresses through webmail and social networks

Obtaining data is a fundamental stage in a computer security process both to identify violators or to detect vulnerabilities in a certain system. For tasks such as investigation or intelligence, among the most important information that can be collected from an entity are the IP addresses of important people, suspects or investigation targets. Obtaining this information for legal and ethical purposes is currently more complex because service providers mask this data in order to protect the identity of their users. In order to obtain the IP address, it is intended to apply different electronic and automated techniques that serve to modify documents and cover them up so that, when opened by the recipient, they reveal their IP address, which will be automatically registered in the logs of the web server that is implemented in this research. These approaches will be considered: sending an invitation HTTP link directly and sending an Office document with invisible characters. The scope of the work described is important, since it covers proposed techniques for detecting an IP address using various methods evaluating the efficiency and effectiveness of each test. This will allow the forensic analyst or investigator to obtain a person's possible location by consulting with internet providers.

Analysis of tax effects in MSMEs. A critical perspective of the content of the 2020 Tax Simplification and Progressivity Law.

This article is based on the tax obligations that the taxpayers of MSMEs have, the new tax regime for micro-businesses, created in the Organic Law of Tax Simplification (2019), has its rules for its application. The Internal Revenue Service (SRI) issued a resolution on the cadastre and obligations of these taxpayers, the last one, this past May 22, 2020, where it will proceed to comply with a transitional provision of the law that set a deadline 20 days, from the effective date of the rule, for the SRI to carry out an ex officio update of the Single Taxpayer Registry (RUC) to micro-companies, according to the regulations of the Production Code, micro-businesses are those businesses with sales or gross income annual equal to or less than USD 300,000, the tax administration also includes small merchants, entrepreneurs, in addition to natural persons obliged or not to keep accounting and companies that have had gross income in the immediately preceding year equal to or less than the aforementioned amount , the purpose of this research is to determine what would be the behavior of taxpayers, since they cease to be age Before withholding, and the declarations become semi-annual, what will be the impact, since they have to accumulate semi-annually those resources that they will need to cover the semi-annual VAT obligation, the repercussion deepens even more, how much they have to pay on the total gross sales of 2% imposed on them, without considering the result of the fiscal year. The methodology used in the research was descriptive in the field, based on the bibliographic and documentary review, and the survey technique and the questionnaire instrument, which allowed to review, analyze, diagnose and point out issues related to the application of the law. To calculate the sample size, an objective population of 100 Accountants and Auditors has been used, members of the National Union of Colleges of Accountants of Ecuador (UNACCE), who are labor-related, either in a dependency relationship or by professional services with MSMEs Corresponding to a sample of n = 79 questionnaires, the results undoubtedly show that these taxes would mean a severe blow to the MSMEs economy, especially for microentrepreneurs, small entrepreneurs, and entrepreneurs.

Analysis of quality of service in digital AM transmission through the use of codecs in USRP

The objective was to conduct the study and analysis of the quality of service in digital transmission through the use of codecs in USRP. The development methodology defines the realization of the prototype for transmission and reception, starting with the selection of devices, the design, execution, and analysis of the results obtained.  It was made the study of the particular conditions in the transmission and reception of the signal in digital AM (DRM), the implementation of the transmitter in GNU Radio, the configuration of the receiver in HDSDR and Dream SDR. In addition to the cards Ettus USRP N210, Ettus USRP B200, and RTL-SDR REALTEK RTL2832U. The result of this study was the quality of the service evaluated with respect to the transmission speed (Kbps) and the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) to determine the fidelity in the reception of digital signals. Based on the results defined in the operating characteristics of each mode of robustness for a given transmission channel vary the values of the transmission speed and the signal-to-noise ratio, offering B mode better signal protection with respect to noise, while A mode offers higher transmission speed. Therefore, it is concluded that the DRM system uses the best sound compression technologies since it uses the MPEG-4 audio and voice algorithms that provide excellent sound quality at low bit rates with advanced audio coding (AAC).
