In the 1960s and early ’70s Holland developed an abstract mathematical model of adaptive processes (what he called an adaptive plan) which was inspired by natural evolution but was of greater generality. Holland sought to use this model to unify under one theoretical framework adaptation in such diverse fields as neuroscience, economics, control, game theory, artificial intelligence, and genetics.
For any adaptive process that generates structures of some type, one can define a set A of all the structures that may be generated during the adaptive process. For example, in the domain of economic planning an element of A may be a mix of goods; in game-theory A may be the set of all strategies with respect to some game (Holland, 1975, p4). Holland conceptualized adaptation as a process that starts out by sampling from all of A, and, over time, starts restricting its sampling, to subsets of A with increasing average fitness. | Translation - Spanish
En los sesentas y a principios de los setentas, Holland desarrolló un modelo matemático abstracto del proceso adaptivo (a lo que llamó un plan adaptivo) el cual estaba inspirado en la evolución natural pero que tenía una mayor generalidad. Holland pretendía utilizar este modelo para unificar bajo un marco teórico la adaptación en campos tan diversos como la neurocienca, la economía, el monitoreo, la teoría de juegos, la inteligencia artificial y la genética.
Para cualquier proceso adaptivo que genere estructuras de algún tipo, es posible definir un conjunto A de todas las estructuras que puedan ser generadas durante dicho proceso. Por ejemplo, en el campo de la planeación económica un elemento perteneciente a A puede ser una combinación de bienes; mientras que en teoría de juegos, A puede ser el conjunto de todas las estrategias referentes a un juego (Holland, 1975, p. 4). Holland concibió la adaptación como un proceso que inicia tomando muestras de todo el conjunto A y que, con el paso del tiempo, empieza a restringir su muestreo a subconjuntos de A con niveles de aptitud promedio cada vez mayores. | | English to Spanish: Science - Physics: Particle accelerators | Source text - English
Particle accelerators (often referred to as “atom smashers”) use strong electric fields to push streams of subatomic particles—usually protons or electrons—to tremendous speeds.
Accelerators by the thousands are at work worldwide. The particle beams they generate are used to zap tumors, aid in medical diagnosis, and study and control manufacturing processes in industry.
In specialized accelerators known as lightsources, the particles race around a ring to generate bright X-rays that illuminate complex biological structures and other phenomena. | Translation - Spanish
Los aceleradores de partículas utilizan fuertes campos eléctricos para acelerar haces de partículas subatómicas, usualmente protones o electrones, a extraordinarias velocidades.
A nivel mundial existen miles de aceleradores funcionando, y los haces de partículas que generan son utilizados para radiar tumores, para asistir en diagnósticos médicos, y en el estudio y control de procesos industriales de producción.
En aceleradores especializados, conocidos como «fuentes de luz», las partículas viajan por un anillo para generar brillantes rayos X, los cuales iluminan estructuras biológicas complejas y otros fenómenos. |

Education
 Bachelor's Degree in Information Technology (Instituto Tecnológico de Oaxaca, Mexico). Graduated top of the class.
Master's Degree in Computer Science, Distributed systems - Genetic Algorithms (BUAP, Mexico).
Experience
I have been translating for three years, the first two translating papers and small book sections for professors and classmates during my Master's degree.
For the last year I have been translating for individuals, mainly in the fields of computer science, popular science, history and general texts.
I am able to translate accurately texts from several areas of science (physics, astronomy, genetics) besides my main fields of expertise, Computer Science and IT.
Quality assurance and professional commitments
 Professionalism: Each translation request is carefully reviewed prior to acceptance to guarantee the project is within my competence. If the required background expertise doesn't fit mine, or a too tight deadline is demanded, thus rendering impossible to provide a quality service, I will turn down the request promptly.
Punctuality: Once the source document is reviewed and the details are concerted, the accorded deadline is treated very seriously. If because of an extreme situation a delay is foreseeable, I will notify the client in advance.
Proofreading: Every translation is carefully proofreaded before its delivery. Every project is printed for at least one proofreading on paper.
Review upon request: If the final document has any mistakes, I will correct every error in translation for free. This will not apply on style related issues, on cases when the required style was not explicitly requested from the start.
Undivided translation proficiency: I only translate into my native language, Spanish. Equipment
Laptop: Primarily used for projects.
Desktop PC: Backup/secondary equipment.*
External HD: Backup storage.*
Laser printer: For proofreading on paper.
*All projects are replicated every night
in the two computers and in the external
drive, in any data loss event there will
be a copy stored for recovery. In the
worst case scenario, no more than one
day's work would be lost.
