Framework for the semantic alignment of enterprise’s domain knowledge

Nowadays, the consumption of goods and services on the Internet are increasing in a constant motion. Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) mostly from the traditional industry sectors are usually make business in weak and fragile market sectors, where customized products and services prevail. To survive and compete in the actual markets they have to readjust their business strategies by creating new manufacturing processes and establishing new business networks through new technological approaches. In order to compete with big enterprises, these partnerships aim the sharing of resources, knowledge and strategies to boost the sector’s business consolidation through the creation of dynamic manufacturing networks. To facilitate such demand, it is proposed the development of a centralized information system, which allows enterprises to select and create dynamic manufacturing networks that would have the capability to monitor all the manufacturing process, including the assembly, packaging and distribution phases. Even the networking partners that come from the same area have multi and heterogeneous representations of the same knowledge, denoting their own view of the domain. Thus, different conceptual, semantic, and consequently, diverse lexically knowledge representations may occur in the network, causing non-transparent sharing of information and interoperability inconsistencies. The creation of a framework supported by a tool that in a flexible way would enable the identification, classification and resolution of such semantic heterogeneities is required. This tool will support the network in the semantic mapping establishments, to facilitate the various enterprises information systems integration.

Contratualização interna vs. contratualização ext

RESUMO - Independentemente do modelo jurídico adoptado para os hospitais é necessário introduzir políticas de gestão estratégicas e adoptar instrumentos que permitam uma melhoria efectiva dos processos de gestão organizacional. A implementação de um modelo de contratualização interna que se traduza na transposição dos compromissos assumidos externamente para o interior da organização e, consequentemente, a sua desagregação pelos diferentes níveis de gestão, permite alcançar um alinhamento cada vez maior entre os objectivos contratualizados externamente e a missão das instituições de saúde. No presente estudo pretendeu-se identificar o estado de arte relativamente à contratualização interna numa amostra representativa das unidades hospitalares portuguesas, tendo-se concluído pela identificação de acções a desenvolver para servir de suporte à sua efectiva adopção.--------------------------ABSTRACT – Despite legal framework applied on hospitals, it is essential to develop and launch a set of management and strategic policies, as well as to adopt instruments that can grant an effective improvement to organizational management processes. The implementation of a «management by objectives model» that will carry external commitments the organization and therefore its splitting through the different management levels, will provide a higher alignment between the objectives externally agreed and the mission of health institutions. The goal of this study, is to identify the «management by objectives» state of the art on a representative sample of the Portuguese hospital units, as well as to identify the actions nece
