MVVC - Museu virtual Viana do Castelo: Um guia turístico para a cidade

A UE tem manifestado em matéria de turismo, a necessidade de serem criados novos produtos turísticos, com base na oferta total e única de cada uma das localidades. Se existirem recursos naturais, recursos culturais, bem como uma oferta de serviços complementares que incluam uma rede viária de fácil acesso e aeroporto nas imediações, alojamento e restauração existem as condições necessárias para desenvolver (novos) produtos locais. Viana do Castelo, cidade do nordeste português localizada no topo do país, reúne os recursos naturais, culturais e os serviços descritos atrás, razão pela qual foi alvo da concepção de um guia turístico virtual, com o objectivo de desenvolver e promover os seus produtos (turísticos) na comunidade local. Denominado "MWC", Museu Virtual Viana do Castelo, o guia turístico virtual estará escrito em português. Pretende ser traduzido noutros idiomas, inclusive para língua gestual e Braille.

An Evaluative Model to Assess the Organizational Efficiency in Training Corporations

In an organisation any optimization process of its issues faces increasing challenges and requires new approaches to the organizational phenomenon. Indeed, in this work it is addressed the problematic of efficiency dynamics through intangible variables that may support a different view of the corporations. It focuses on the challenges that information management and the incorporation of context brings to competitiveness. Thus, in this work it is presented the analysis and development of an intelligent decision support system in terms of a formal agenda built on a Logic Programming based methodology to problem solving, complemented with an attitude to computing grounded on Artificial Neural Networks. The proposed model is in itself fairly precise, with an overall accuracy, sensitivity and specificity with values higher than 90 %. The proposed solution is indeed unique, catering for the explicit treatment of incomplete, unknown, or even self-contradictory information, either in a quantitative or qualitative arrangement.
