Impactos da ado����o de sistemas de informação no judici��rio: pesquisa com usu��rios do sistema processual virtual em um juizado especial federal

The Information Technology (IT) is increasing his applicability to business, both private and public companies. It is necessary the adequate use of the new technologies and get cooperation and technology acceptance of the system. People tend to resist to the changes, contributing so that the technology is rejected or even it is not recognized as promoting of the changes. This study is relevant and aim to evaluate the impacts of new technologies, considering their users as fundamental factors in the change process. The survey analyzed the advantages and the barriers of the system use in three federal special judicial of Rio Grande do Norte, with data collected in May of 2007, through the application of questionnaires to thirty eight users of the virtual system CRETA. The users' perception was evaluated, under the optics of five variables: efficiency, image, agility, ease of use and quality. Starting from the obtained results, it was evidenced that the implementation of the system felt accordingly the expected and it reached the objectives intended that were: the velocity and efficiency in the path of the lawsuits, larger productivity, resulting in a better quality of the final work introduced to the citizen and proportionate an improvement in the organizational image of the judiciary power

Potencialidades de cultivo de macroalgas no litoral do Rio Grande do Norte (NE, Brasil): uma perspectiva de integra����o de dados ambientais em sistemas de informação geogr��fica (SIG)

Since centuries ago, the Asians use seaweed as an important source of feeding and are their greatest world-wide consumers. The migration of these peoples for other countries, made the demand for seaweed to increase. This increasing demand prompted an industry with annual values of around US$ 6 billion. The algal biomass used for the industry is collected in natural reservoirs or cultivated. The market necessity for products of the seaweed base promotes an unsustainable exploration of the natural banks, compromising its associated biological balance. In this context, seaweed culture appears as a viable alternative to prevent the depletion of these natural supplies. Geographic Information Systems (GIS) provide space and produce information that can facilitate the evaluation of important physical and socio-economic characteristics for the planning of seaweed culture. This objective of this study is to identify potential coastal areas for seaweed culture in the state of Rio Grande do Norte, from the integration of social-environmental data in the SIG. In order to achieve this objective, a geo-referred database composed of geographical maps, nautical maps and orbital digital images was assembled; and a bank of attributes including physical and oceanographical variables (winds, chains, bathymetry, operational distance from the culture) and social and environmental factors (main income, experience with seaweed harvesting, demographic density, proximity of the sheltered coast and distance of the banks) was produced. In the modeling of the data, the integration of the space database with the bank of attributes for the attainment of the map of potentiality of seaweed culture was carried out. Of a total of 2,011 ha analyzed by the GIS for the culture of seaweed, around 34% or 682 ha were indicated as high potential, 55% or 1,101 ha as medium potential, and 11% or 228 ha as low potential. The good indices of potentiality obtained in the localities studied demonstrate that there are adequate conditions for the installation of seaweed culture in the state of Rio Grande do Norte

Sistemas de informação geogr��fica e an��lise espacial de dados como ferramentas para determina����o de agrega����o espacial de doen��as: a hansen��ase como modelo

This work demonstrates the importance of using tools used in geographic information systems (GIS) and spatial data analysis (SDA) for the study of infectious diseases. Analysis methods were used to describe more fully the spatial distribution of a particular disease by incorporating the geographical element in the analysis. In Chapter 1, we report the historical evolution of these techniques in the field of human health and use Hansen s disease (leprosy) in Rio Grande do Norte as an example. In Chapter 2, we introduced a few basic theoretical concepts on the methodology and classified the types of spatial data commonly treated. Chapters 3 and 4 defined and demonstrated the use of the two most important techniques for analysis of health data, which are data point processes and data area. We modelled the case distribution of Hansen s disease in the city of Mossor�� - RN. In the analysis, we used R scripts and made available routines and analitical procedures developed by the author. This approach can be easily used by researchers in several areas. As practical results, major risk areas in Mossor�� leprosy were detected, and its association with the socioeconomic profile of the population at risk was found. Moreover, it is clearly shown that his approach could be of great help to be used continuously in data analysis and processing, allowing the development of new strategies to work might increase the use of such techniques in data analysis in health care

iSalud: uma arquitetura para publica����o e distribui����o de sistemas de informação para o SUS

The Brazil Telehealth Networks Program was established by the Ministry of Health in 2007. Its main objective is to support professionals in Primary Health Care (PHC) by offering educational qualification, resulting in more favorable conditions to fixate the professional in remote areas. The formulation and management of telehealth services are performed by scientific and technical centers that are operated by public institutions of higher education and responsible for providing tools and services in the context of the regions where they are. However, one of the problems generated by this decentralization is the development of various tools with different types of language, architecture and without any regulation and integration of information with the Ministry of Health. Aiming to solve the above problem, we propose the specification, implementation and validation of an architectural model in the development and distribution of the Unified Health System software tools. This proposed architecture enables tools developed in telehealth center to be shared among the other centers, thereby preventing the unnecessary use of resources.

A Tecnologia da informação como fator de competitividade em um apl: o caso da carcinicultura do RN

Este estudo aborda a utiliza����o da tecnologia da informação de forma competitiva em um Arranjo Produtivo Local APL. Realizou-se no APL da carcinicultura no Estado do Rio Grande do Norte e teve por objetivo buscar a compreens��o de como o uso da tecnologia da informação (TI) contribui para o aumento da competitividade na atividade do APL citado. APL pode ser conceituado como uma alian��a entre organiza����es que possuem um projeto coletivo, para elevar a sua competitividade e participa����o no mercado. Para atingir este objetivo, foi realizada uma pesquisa descritiva, atrav��s da utiliza����o de m��ltiplos casos selecionados dentre as empresas que comp��em o APL da carcinicultura no RN. Os dados coletados foram analisados qualitativamente. Os resultados da pesquisa indicaram que as empresas percebem a import��ncia do uso da TI, mas que, na pr��tica, a sua utiliza����o �� limitada, principalmente em se tratando de Sistemas Integrados de Gest��o e Com��rcio Eletr��nico. Outro resultado encontrado foi que as empresas, embora fa��am parte do APL, ainda n��o colaboram entre si, seja atrav��s da troca de informa����es, ou atrav��s de Sistemas de Informação Interorganizacional. As principais recomenda����es diante destes resultados �� que as empresas atuem ativamente para o fortalecimento do APL. No que se refere ao uso da TI faz-se necess��rio que elas invistam na aquisi����o de sistemas integrados de gest��o e sistemas de informação interorganizacional para o melhor gerenciamento das informa����es ao longo da cadeia

Bibliotecas digitais em Arquitetura e urbanismo: um estudo sobre a arquitetura da informação digital

The goal of this paper was to search the state of the art from the Digital Libraries in Architecture and Urbanism in the Higher Education Institutions (IES) through conceptualizations and showing the importance of Digital Libraries in the disclosure and easing of information transferring. Questions about digital information architecture, usability, digital preservation and accessibility were approached. The research was made in the websites of Brazilian Universities, firstly to identify the institutions which offered the Architecture and Urbanism course, focusing on postgraduate education. After identifying the offering, the research was done by analyzing the contents, storage and dissemination and access to information, these libraries. It was found that the digital libraries are increasingly and taking part of organizations and educational institutions focusing on the knowledge dissemination releasing digitally information that may be needed for institution or the individual. A monitoring was done over of the physical and computational restructuring of the Board of Studies and Research in Architecture and Urbanism (C��mara de Estudos e Pesquisa em Arquitetura e Urbanismo, CEPAU), from the Architecture and Urbanism Course of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN), showing the need of installing a Digital Library to integrate the databases of PPGAU s research groups, which today remain independent, with no interface among themselves. The research chosen area was Architecture and Urbanism, because there is a gap and little documentation about digital libraries in this area

Registro da informação sobre nascidos vivos no nordeste: uma avalia����o da evolu����o do SINASC entre 2000 e 2010

Os nascimentos ocorridos em uma popula����o consistem em informação de grande valia para diversos estudos e planejamento de pol��ticas p��blicas. O Sistema de informa����es sobre Nascidos Vivos (SINASC) representa uma promissora fonte de informação sobre o tema, uma vez que coleta continuamente e no ��mbito municipal, dados sobre nascimentos. Tendo em vista a necessidade de avalia����o cont��nua do SINASC e o panorama do decl��nio da fecundidade no Nordeste, objetivou-se avaliar a qualidade das informa����es provenientes do SINASC para o Nordeste, estados e microrregi��es, nos anos 2000 e 2010, utilizando o Censo Demogr��fico como informação de refer��ncia, avaliando a cobertura do SINASC e identificando n��veis e padr��es de fecundidade. Pretendeu-se ainda verificar a rela����o entre os n��veis de fecundidade, o grau de cobertura do SINASC e as condi����es socioecon��micas das microrregi��es sintetizadas pelo ��ndice Social de Desenvolvimento Municipal (ISDM), utilizando-se a an��lise de cluster, associada �� an��lise de vari��ncia (ANOVA) e o teste de Tukey. Por ��ltimo, analisou-se a incompletude no preenchimento dos campos da Declara����o de Nascido Vivo (DNV). De acordo com os resultados, observou-se que houve amplia����o da qualidade das informa����es do SINASC no per��odo estudado, resultando em uma maior aproxima����o das TFTs oriundas das duas fontes de dados consideradas no estudo. Maranh��o e Para��ba foram os estados com maiores ganhos em cobertura das TFTs no per��odo, e os estados do Rio Grande do Norte e Sergipe revelaram um grau de cobertura ligeiramente inferior em 2010 frente aos resultados de 2000, bem como ainda persistem v��rias microrregi��es com TFTs oriundas do SINASC bem abaixo daquelas estimadas pelo Censo. Na verifica����o da associa����o entre o ISDM, TFTs e cobertura, a an��lise de cluster resultou em tr��s agrupamentos, GrISDM A com melhores coberturas, ISDM e mais baixas TFT; GrISDM B , intermedi��rio e GrISDM C com piores coberturas, ISDM e TFT mais altas. Notou-se a evolu����o das condi����es socioecon��micas no Nordeste, tendo o GrISDM A passado de 8% do total de microrregi��es em 2000 para 37% em 2010. Reiterou-se ainda que quanto melhores as condi����es socioecon��micas de uma popula����o, menores s��o as TFTs e melhores as coberturas do SINASC. A an��lise de vari��ncia apontou intera����es significativas entre o ano estudado versus ISDM (p-valor < 0,016) e o ano versus fonte de informação (p-valor < 0,020), e o teste Tukey apontou que n��o houve similaridade entre as m��dias das TFT das fontes Censo versus SINASC no per��odo, fato que aponta para a capta����o ainda deficiente do SINASC nas microrregi��es. O resultado da an��lise de vari��ncia da cobertura do SINASC em rela����o ao Censo apresentou uma intera����o significativa entre as vari��veis UF versus Ano (p-valor < 0,0001), causada pelos estados que apresentaram queda de cobertura entre 2000 e 2010. Quanto �� incompletude dos itens da DNV, evidenciou-se uma melhor coleta no per��odo, embora alguns itens ainda care��am de aten����o, como o apgar no 1�� e 5�� minuto e ocupa����o da m��e, sendo esta a que apresenta maiores percentuais de informa����es ignoradas. Destaca-se a possibilidade de preenchimento inconsistente nas vari��veis referentes ao hist��rico de gesta����es anteriores, com o uso da informação zero inserida no lugar da informação ignorado . Concluiu-se que o SINASC �� uma importante base de dados sobre nascimentos e que disp��e de dados confi��veis para o acompanhamento dos nascimentos e de seu panorama epidemiol��gico no Nordeste brasileiro, embora para alguns estados, assim como para algumas microrregi��es, ainda faz-se necess��ria a amplia����o da cobertura do Sistema. As informa����es constantes na DNV podem servir como embasamento para diversos estudos sobre as condi����es epidemiol��gicas dos nascituros e das suas m��es, e dos indicadores baseados as informa����es dos nascimentos
