The Spanish Restoration: Alfonso XII and the Cánovas System
The Reign of Alfonso XII and the Cánovas System
Martínez Campos’s pronouncement ended the Democratic Sexenio, initiating the Restoration. This preparation was preceded by three key factors: the pacification of the country, international recognition of Prince Alfonso, and the acceptance of the monarchy by public opinion. These factors were sequenced in phases, as the military regime headed by Serrano ruled the country for eleven months, focusing on restoring order after the riots. The Manifesto

It gives a common checklist and language for quality (like usability, reliability, security), so teams set clear goals. It breaks each into measurable sub-points, which guide design and testing. Result: better coverage, fewer surprises, and software built and verified against the right qualities.

Customer Connection Shifts and Digital Attribution Models
Shifts Toward the Connected Customer
The modern market is defined by fundamental shifts in how businesses connect with their audience:
Exclusive to Inclusive
Focus on innovation and diversity, mass markets, and social media as a redefinition of how people interact.
Vertical to Horizontal
Emphasizing open innovation, ecosystem business models, and branding based on shared value.
Individual to Social
Most personal purchase decisions are now social decisions, leading to a lack of control over marketing communication

Spanish Literary Renewal: Narrative Techniques of the Sixties
The Sixties: Social Context and Literary Characteristics
Emerging revolutionary movements had a huge echo in Western society and dazzled youth. Many protagonists of these events became myths of renewal or revolution: Martin Luther King, Che Guevara, and Mao Tse Tung.
A revolution of manners caused new forms of life and behavior, including sexual liberation and pacifism. These rebellious attitudes translated into outward signs:
- Hippy clothing
- Miniskirts
- Jeans
- Long hair
- Drugs
In Spain, there was a relaxation
Read MoreIndole-3-acetic Acid (IAA): Mechanism of Cell Expansion and Plant Development
Plant cell expansion is a turgor-driven process, where water uptake into the vacuole generates internal pressure. For the cell to enlarge, its cell wall must be extensible. This is tightly regulated by hormones, especially auxin, the primary being Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA).
IAA promotes cell elongation particularly in young, growing tissues (e.g., coleoptiles, root tips) by modifying the mechanical properties of the cell wall.
Cell Wall Structure and Extensibility
The plant cell wall is a semi-rigid,

Diode Biasing Fundamentals
What is Diode Biasing?
Diode biasing is the process of applying an external DC voltage to a PN junction diode to control its operation and determine whether it will allow or block the flow of electric current.
Types of Diode Biasing (Forward and Reverse)
1. Forward Biasing
- Connection: The positive terminal of the external voltage source is connected to the P-type material, and the negative terminal is connected to the N-type material.
- Operation: This applied voltage opposes
Feudalism and the Social Structure of Medieval Europe
The Origins of Feudalism
Feudalism is the name given to the political, economic, and social system in medieval Europe between the ninth and thirteenth centuries. After the Carolingian Empire, Europe was divided into numerous kingdoms. The kings were very weak; they had no armies and could not protect their lands from the new invasions that affected Europe, such as those by the Vikings, Hungarians, and Saracens (a name used to refer to Muslims during the Middle Ages). To protect the population, kings

Proves something is true without showing the secret. You can prove you know information without revealing the information itself.
Proof is very small and fast to verify. Even big or complex statements create tiny, quick proofs.
No back-and-forth communication is needed. The prover sends one single proof, and the verifier checks it.
Uses a trusted setup at the beginning. Public parameters are created once; everyone uses them.
Keeps data private while still proving correctness.
