CONOCIMIENTO TRADICIONAL SOBRE LOS HONGOS SILVESTRES EN LA COMUNIDAD OTOMÍ DE SAN PEDRO ARRIBA; TEMOAYA, ESTADO DE MÉXICO TRADITIONAL KNOWLEDGE REGARDING WILD MUSHROOMS IN THE OTOMÍ COMMUNITIES OF SAN PEDRO ARRIBA, TEMOAYA, ESTADO DE MÉXICO
2013Co-Authors: Fidel Lara-vázquez, Alejandro Tonatiuh Romero-contreras, Cristina Burrola-aguilar, Autónoma Del Estado De MéxicoAbstract:Wild mushrooms today constitute a non-woody forest resource in different peasant communities during the rainy season, due to their great cultural, dietary and economic importance. This research was performed with the objective of identifying the traditional knowledge and family management of the main species of wild mushrooms in the community of San Pedro Arriba, Temoaya, Estado de Mexico. Informal interviews were applied in the municipal township market with mushroom sellers; we also visited forest sites with families devoted to mushroom picking; and, lastly, we visited the community to apply a questionnaire to its inhabitants. Regarding species, 86 were observed, of which 25 were placed at the level of genus and 61 at the level of species, recognizing 221 names in Spanish and 35 in Otomi, with the simple primary names being the best represented. The species with greatest cultural importance were Helvella lacunosa, Lactarius deliciosus and Gomphus floccosus . Finally, the forms of mushroom exploitation by community families, the acquisition of this knowledge, the ecological knowledge, the collection and Sale Process, and their use, were identified.

Sequential analysis of lines of evidence-an advanced weight-of-evidence approach for ecological risk assessment: Sequential Analysis of Lines of Evidence
Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, 2006Co-Authors: Ruth N Hull, Stella M. SwansonAbstract:Weight-of-evidence (WOE) approaches have been used in ecological risk assessment (ERA) for many years. The approaches integrate various types of data (e.g., from chemistry, bioassay, and field studies) to make an overall conclusion of risk. However, the current practice of WOE has several important difficulties, including a lack of transparency related to how each line of evidence is weighted or integrated into the overall weight-of-evidence conclusion. Therefore, a sequential analysis of lines of evidence (Sale) approach has been developed that advances the practice of WOE. It was developed for an ERA of chemical stressors but also can be used for nonchemical stressors and is equally applicable to the aquatic and terrestrial environments. The sequential aspect of the Sale Process is a significant advancement and is based on 2 primary ideas. First, risks can be ruled out with the use of certain lines of evidence, including modeled hazard quotients (HQs) and comparisons of soil, water, or sediment quality with conservative soil, water or sediment quality guidelines. Thus, the Sale Process recognizes that HQs are most useful in ruling out risk rather than predicting risk to ecological populations or communities. Second, the Sale Process provides several opportunities to exit the risk assessment Process, not only when risks are ruled out, but also when magnitude of effect is acceptable or when little or no evidence exists that associations between stressors and effects may be causal. Thus, the Sale approach explicitly includes interaction between assessors and managers. It illustrates to risk managers how risk management can go beyond the simple derivation of risk-based concentrations of chemicals of concern to risk management goals based on ecological metrics (e.g., species diversity). It also can be used to stimulate discussion of the limitations of the ERA science, and how scientists deal with uncertainty. It should assist risk managers by allowing their decisions to be based on a sequential, flexible, and transparent Process that includes direct toxicity risks, indirect risks (via changes in habitat suitability), and the spatial and temporal factors that can influence the risk assessment.

Using V-Model methodology, UML Process-based risk assessment of software and visualization
Proceedings of 2014 International Conference on Cloud Computing and Internet of Things, 2014Co-Authors: Muhammad Rashid Naeem, Weihua Zhu, Adeel Akbar Memon, Adeel KhalidAbstract:Risk Assessment is one of the most critical parts of software engineering Process, and risks are the factors that could be results in software failure if they are not correctly handled. In this Paper, we propose a solution to reduce risks using UML visualization of software Processes in detail, and V-Model (Software Development Lifecycle Model) techniques are performed to produce verified results in each phase of development lifecycle. Using all above aspects and research findings, we propose “Risk Assessment V-Model”. Furthermore, we use “Do Sale Process” to discuss different properties of our model. This model is quite in general and can be applicable and expendable for many kinds of software systems.
