This work aims to analyze risks related to information technology (IT) in procedures related to data migration. This is done considering ALEPH, Integrated Libray System (ILS) that migrated data to the Library Module present in the software called Sistema Integrado de Gestão de Atividades Acadêmicas (SIGAA) at the Zila Mamede Central Library at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN) in Natal/Brazil. The methodological procedure used was of a qualitative exploratory research with the realization of case study at the referred library in order to better understand this phenomenon. Data collection was able once there was use of a semi-structured interview that was applied with (11) subjects that are employed at the library as well as in the Technology Superintendence at UFRN. In order to examine data Content analysis as well as thematic review process was performed. After data migration the results of the interview were then linked to both analysis units and their system register with category correspondence. The main risks detected were: data destruction; data loss; data bank communication failure; user response delay; data inconsistency and duplicity. These elements point out implication and generate disorders that affect external and internal system users and lead to stress, work duplicity and hassles. Thus, some measures were taken related to risk management such as adequate planning, central management support, and pilot test simulations. For the advantages it has reduced of: risk, occurrence of problems and possible unforeseen costs, and allows achieving organizational objectives, among other. It is inferred therefore that the risks present in data bank conversion in libraries exist and some are predictable, however, it is seen that librarians do not know or ignore and are not very worried in the identification risks in data bank conversion, their acknowledge would minimize or even extinguish them. Another important aspect to consider is the existence of few empirical research that deal specifically with this subject and thus presenting the new of new approaches in order to promote better understanding of the matter in the corporate environment of the information units

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

O processamento de linguagem natural e as ontologias são ferramentas cuja interação permite uma melhor compreensão dos dados armazenados. Este trabalho, ao associar estas duas áreas aos elementos disponíveis numa base de dados prosopográfica, tornou possível identificar e classificar relacionamentos entre setores de ocupação na forma como eram designados na época, setores de atividade num formato mais próximo do de hoje e o estatuto social que essas incumbências tinham na sociedade coeva. Os dados utilizados são sobretudo de membros do Santo Ofício – do século XVI ao século XVIII. Para atingir este objetivo utilizaram-se algumas descrições textuais de ocorrências da época e outras pouco estruturadas, disponíveis no repositório SPARES. A aplicação de processamento de linguagem natural (remoção de stopwords e aplicação de stemming), conjugada com a construção de duas ontologias, tornou possível classificar esses dados, permitindo consultas mais eficazes. Ao contribuir para a classificação automática de dados históricos, propõem-se metodologias que podem ser aplicadas em dados de qualquer outra área do conhecimento, especialmente as que lidam com as variáveis de tempo e espaço de forma mais intensa; Abstract: OntoSPARES: from natural language to ontologies Contributions to the automatic classification of historical data (16th-18th centuries) The interaction between the natural language processing and ontologies are tools allowing a better understanding of the data stored. This work, by combining these two areas to the elements available in a prosopographic database, has made possible to identify and classify relationships between occupations of many individuals (in general Holy Office members of the 16th-18th centuries). To achieve this goal the data used was gathered in SPARES repository, including some textual descriptions of the time occurrences. They are all few structured. The application of natural language processing (stopwords removal and stemming application), combined with the construction of two ontologies, made possible to classify those data, allowing a more effective search. By contributing to the automatic classification of historical data, this thesis proposes methodologies that can be applied to data from any other field of knowledge, specially data dealing with time and space variables.

A replicação de base de dados tem como objectivo a cópia de dados entre bases de dados distribuídas numa rede de computadores. A replicação de dados é importante em várias situações, desde a realização de cópias de segurança da informação, ao balanceamento de carga, à distribuição da informação por vários locais, até à integração de sistemas heterogéneos. A replicação possibilita uma diminuição do tráfego de rede, pois os dados ficam disponíveis localmente possibilitando também o seu acesso no caso de indisponibilidade da rede. Esta dissertação baseia-se na realização de um trabalho que consistiu no desenvolvimento de uma aplicação genérica para a replicação de bases de dados a disponibilizar como open source software. A aplicação desenvolvida possibilita a integração de dados entre vários sistemas, com foco na integração de dados heterogéneos, na fragmentação de dados e também na possibilidade de adaptação a várias situações. ABSTRACT: Data replication is a mechanism to synchronize and integrate data between distributed databases over a computer network. Data replication is an important tool in several situations, such as the creation of backup systems, load balancing between various nodes, distribution of information between various locations, integration of heterogeneous systems. Replication enables a reduction in network traffic, because data remains available locally even in the event of a temporary network failure. This thesis is based on the work carried out to develop an application for database replication to be made accessible as open source software. The application that was built allows for data integration between various systems, with particular focus on, amongst others, the integration of heterogeneous data, the fragmentation of data, replication in cascade, data format changes between replicas, master/slave and multi master synchronization.

O projeto de pesquisa preocupou-se em identificar espacialmente o potencial sócio-econômico relacionado aos clientes da Rede Fast Food Delivery "China in Box" que se encontra instalado na região central do Município de Florianópolis - Santa Catarina - Brasil. A base de dados alfanumérica proveniente do IBGE (Setores Censitários) foi manipulada no ambiente SIG-ArcGIS e tornou-se a base para a tomada de decisões estratégicas de marketing pela empresa. O método desenvolvido e validado na pesquisa se configurou na estruturação do banco de dados geográfico referente ao cadastro dos clientes, o qual foi definido por um princípio de geocodificação. Posteriormente a estruturação do banco de dados no SIG, que contemplou as variáveis referentes ao nível de renda, escolaridade, faixa etária, quantidade de moradores, entre outras, foram empregadas funções de análise espacial, por meio da ferramenta Spatial Analyst. A aplicação desse recurso permitiu gerar, por exemplo, mapas temáticos que responderam e espacializaram os questionamentos de interesse ao plano estratégico de desenvolvimento da empresa e a tomada de decisão segundo os princípios do marketing.

O Brasil ocupa uma posição de destaque em estudos de solos tropicais, em razão do enorme volume de informações levantadas sobre os solos do país. Entretanto, a disponibilização dessas informações tem-se mostrado pouco eficiente. Com o intuito de ampliar as possibilidades de utilização de uma base de dados de solos de abrangência nacional, elaborada a partir de levantamentos pedológicos de grande amplitude, procedeu-se à sua reestruturação, atualizando a classificação dos perfis de solo que a constituem, seguida de uma avaliação quanto à sua representatividade e potencial para análises qualitativas. Para isso, os dados foram organizados em formato de banco de dados e a classificação pedológica atualizada de acordo com a versão mais recente do Sistema Brasileiro de Classificação de Solos, até o quarto nível categórico. Essa atualização foi, em geral, bastante satisfatória, sobretudo nos três primeiros níveis hierárquicos, com maiores restrições no subgrupo, conforme a análise dos graus de confiabilidade adotados para expressar a exatidão no ajuste do enquadramento taxonômico. Desse modo, ao suprir a carência de uma nomenclatura unificada e ajustada aos critérios atuais que regem a classificação de solos no Brasil, constituiu-se um banco de dados comparável qualitativamente com variáveis externas, como distribuição geográfica, altitude e tipos climáticos. As avaliações realizadas a partir dessa base evidenciaram uma boa representatividade da distribuição dos perfis na grande maioria dos estados da federação, assim como em relação às condições ambientais representadas por zonas e tipos climáticos da classificação de Köppen. Entretanto, não foram constatadas correlações estreitas entre estas variáveis e as classes de solo em nível de ordem, embora algumas tendências gerais tenham sido observadas, como uma significativa proporção de perfis de Vertissolos e Luvissolos sob clima semi-árido (BS). De forma semelhante, a altitude de onde ocorrem as classes de solos foi também muito variável, mas os valores de quartis e mediana indicaram algumas faixas preferenciais. Assim, Cambissolos e Latossolos tendem a ocupar os níveis mais altos da paisagem brasileira, ao passo que 75 % dos perfis de Espodossolos e de Plintossolos situam-se em cotas inferiores a 200 m. Além das potencialidades de uso evidenciadas, a estruturação atual da base de dados permite outras aplicações para atender necessidades específicas de estudo, inclusive no que tange a investigações relacionadas ao sistema de classificação de solos que vem sendo desenvolvido no país.

OBJECTIVE: To describe the role of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the evaluation of patients with chronic and recurrent aseptic meningitis.METHOD: A retrospective study of five patients with aseptic meningoencefalitis diagnosed by clinical and CSF findings. CT scans showed without no relevant findings. RESULTS: MRI showed small multifocal lesions hyperintense on T2 weighted images and FLAIR, with mild or no gadolinium enhancement, mainly in periventricular and subcortical regions. Meningoencephalitis preceded the diagnosis of the underlying disease in four patients (Behçet´s disease or systemic lupus erythematosus). After the introduction of adequate treatment for the rheumatic disease, they did not present further symptoms of aseptic meningoencephalitis. CONCLUSION: Aseptic meningoencephalitis can be an early presentation of an autoimmune disease. It is important to emphasize the role of MRI in the diagnosis and follow-up of these patients.

INTRODUCTION: Subclinical hypothyroidism (SCH), defined as elevated concentrations of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) despite normal levels of thyroid hormones, is highly prevalent in Brazil, especially among women and the elderly. Although an increasing number of studies have related SCH to an increased risk of coronary artery disease and mortality, there have been no randomized clinical trials verifying the benefit of levothyroxine treatment in reducing these risks, and the treatment remains controversial. OBJECTIVE: This consensus, sponsored by the Thyroid Department of the Brazilian Society of Endocrinology and Metabolism and developed by Brazilian experts with extensive clinical experience with thyroid diseases, presents these recommendations based on evidence for the clinical management of SCH patients in Brazil. MATERIALS AND METHODS: After structuring the clinical questions, the search for evidence in the literature was initially performed in the MedLine-PubMed database and later in the Embase and SciELO - Lilacs databases. The strength of evidence was evaluated according to the Oxford classification system and established based on the experimental design used, considering the best available evidence for each question and the Brazilian experience. RESULTS: The topics covered included SCH definition and diagnosis, natural history, clinical significance, treatment and pregnancy, and the consensus issued 29 recommendations for the clinical management of adult patients with SCH. CONCLUSION: Treatment with levothyroxine was recommended for all patients with persistent SCH with serum TSH values > 10 mU/L and for certain patient subgroups.

Laboratory tests are essential for accurate diagnosis and cost-effective management of thyroid disorders. When the clinical suspicion is strong, hormonal levels just confirms the diagnosis. However, in most patients, symptoms are subtle and unspecific, so that only biochemical tests can detect the disorder. The objective of this article is to do a critical analysis of the appropriate use of the most important thyroid function tests, including serum concentrations of thyrotropin (TSH), thyroid hormones and antithyroid antibodies. Through a survey in the MedLine database, we discuss the major pitfalls and interferences related to daily use of these tests and recommendations are presented to optimize the use of these diagnostic tools in clinical practice.
