Implementing distributed concurrent constraint execution in the CIAO system

This paper describes the current prototype of the distributed CIAO system. It introduces the concepts of "teams" and "active modules" (or active objects), which conveniently encapsulate different types of functionalities desirable from a distributed system, from parallelism for achieving speedup to client-server applications. The user primitives available are presented and their implementation described. This implementation uses attributed variables and, as an example of a communication abstraction, a blackboard that follows the Linda model. Finally, the CIAO WWW interface is also briefly described. The unctionalities of the system are illustrated through examples, using the implemented primitives.

Estudio cinemático del cuerpo humano mediante Kinect

La cámara Kinect está desarrollada por Prime Sense en colaboración con Microsoft para la consola XBox, ofrece imágenes de profundidad gracias a un sensor infrarrojo. Este dispositivo también incluye una cámara RGB que ofrece imágenes a color además de una serie de micrófonos colocados de tal manera que son capaces de saber de qué ángulo proviene el sonido. En un principio Kinect se creó para el ocio doméstico pero su bajo precio (en comparación con otras cámaras de iguales características) y la aceptación por parte de desarrolladores han explotado sus posibilidades. El objetivo de este proyecto es, partiendo de estos datos, la obtención de variables cinemáticas tales como posición, velocidad y aceleración de determinados puntos de control del cuerpo de un individuo como pueden ser el cabeza, cuello, hombros, codos, muñecas, caderas, rodillas y tobillos a partir de los cuales poder extraer patrones de movimiento. Para ello se necesita un middleware mediante el entorno de libre distribución (GNU) multiplataforma. Como IDE se ha utilizado Processing, un entorno open source creado para proyectos de diseño. Además se ha utilizado el contenedor SimpleOpenNI, desarrollado por estudiantes e investigadores que trabajan con Kinect. Esto ofrece la posibilidad de prescindir del SDK de Microsoft, el cual es propietario y obliga a utilizar su sistema operativo, Windows. Usando estas herramientas se consigue una solución viable para varios sistemas operativos. Se han utilizado métodos y facilidades que ofrece el lenguaje orientado a objetos Java (Proccesing hereda de este), y se ha planteado una solución basada en un modelo cliente servidor que dota de escalabilidad al proyecto. El resultado del proyecto es útil en aplicaciones para poblaciones con riesgo de exclusión (como es el espectro autista), en telediagnóstico, y en general entornos donde se necesite estudiar hábitos y comportamientos a partir del movimiento humano. Con este proyecto se busca tener una continuidad mediante otras aplicaciones que analicen los datos ofrecidos. ABSTRACT. The Kinect camera is developed by PrimeSense in collaboration with Microsoft for the xBox console provides depth images thanks to an infrared sensor. This device also includes an RGB camera that provides color images in addition to a number of microphones placed such that they are able to know what angle the sound comes. Kinect initially created for domestic leisure but its low prices (compared to other cameras with the same characteristics) and acceptance by developers have exploited its possibilities. The objective of this project is based on this data to obtain kinematic variables such as position, velocity and acceleration of certain control points of the body of an individual from which to extract movement patterns. These points can be the head, neck, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees and ankles. This requires a middleware using freely distributed environment (GNU) platform. Processing has been used as a development environment, and open source environment created for design projects. Besides the container SimpleOpenNi has been used, it developed by students and researchers working with Kinect. This offers the possibility to dispense with the Microsoft SDK which owns and agrees to use its operating system, Windows. Using these tools will get a viable solution for multiple operating systems. We used methods and facilities of the Java object-oriented language (Processing inherits from this) and has proposed a solution based on a client-server model which provides scalability to the project. The result of the project is useful in applications to populations at risk of exclusion (such as autistic spectrum), in remote diagnostic, and in general environments that need study habits and behaviors from human motion. This project aims to have continuity using other applications to analyze the data provided.

Análisis de ataques avanzados y sus técnicas de detección

Los ataques a redes de información son cada vez más sofisticados y exigen una constante evolución y mejora de las técnicas de detección. Para ello, en este proyecto se ha diseñado e implementado una plataforma cooperativa para la detección de intrusiones basada en red. En primer lugar, se ha realizado un estudio teórico previo del marco tecnológico relacionado con este ámbito, en el que se describe y caracteriza el software que se utiliza para realizar ataques a sistemas (malware) así como los métodos que se utilizan para llegar a transmitir ese software (vectores de ataque). En el documento también se describen los llamados APT, que son ataques dirigidos con una gran inversión económica y temporal. Estos pueden englobar todos los malware y vectores de ataque existentes. Para poder evitar estos ataques, se estudiarán los sistemas de detección y prevención de intrusiones, describiendo brevemente los algoritmos que se tienden a utilizar en la actualidad. En segundo lugar, se ha planteado y desarrollado una plataforma en red dedicada al análisis de paquetes y conexiones para detectar posibles intrusiones. Este sistema está orientado a sistemas SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Adquisition) aunque funciona sobre cualquier red IPv4/IPv6, para ello se definirá previamente lo que es un sistema SCADA, así como sus partes principales. Para implementar el sistema se han utilizado dispositivos de bajo consumo llamados Raspberry PI, estos se ubican entre la red y el equipo final que se quiera analizar. En ellos se ejecutan 2 aplicaciones desarrolladas de tipo cliente-servidor (la Raspberry central ejecutará la aplicación servidora y las esclavas la aplicación cliente) que funcionan de forma cooperativa utilizando la tecnología distribuida de Hadoop, la cual se explica previamente. Mediante esta tecnología se consigue desarrollar un sistema completamente escalable. La aplicación servidora muestra una interfaz gráfica que permite administrar la plataforma de análisis de forma centralizada, pudiendo ver así las alarmas de cada dispositivo y calificando cada paquete según su peligrosidad. El algoritmo desarrollado en la aplicación calcula el ratio de paquetes/tiempo que entran/salen del equipo final, procesando los paquetes y analizándolos teniendo en cuenta la información de señalización, creando diferentes bases de datos que irán mejorando la robustez del sistema, reduciendo así la posibilidad de ataques externos. Para concluir, el proyecto inicial incluía el procesamiento en la nube de la aplicación principal, pudiendo administrar así varias infraestructuras concurrentemente, aunque debido al trabajo extra necesario se ha dejado preparado el sistema para poder implementar esta funcionalidad. En el caso experimental actual el procesamiento de la aplicación servidora se realiza en la Raspberry principal, creando un sistema escalable, rápido y tolerante a fallos. ABSTRACT. The attacks to networks of information are increasingly sophisticated and demand a constant evolution and improvement of the technologies of detection. For this project it is developed and implemented a cooperative platform for detect intrusions based on networking. First, there has been a previous theoretical study of technological framework related to this area, which describes the software used for attacks on systems (malware) as well as the methods used in order to transmit this software (attack vectors). In this document it is described the APT, which are attacks directed with a big economic and time inversion. These can contain all existing malware and attack vectors. To prevent these attacks, intrusion detection systems and prevention intrusion systems will be discussed, describing previously the algorithms tend to use today. Secondly, a platform for analyzing network packets has been proposed and developed to detect possible intrusions in SCADA (Supervisory Control And Data Adquisition) systems. This platform is designed for SCADA systems (Supervisory Control And Data Acquisition) but works on any IPv4 / IPv6 network. Previously, it is defined what a SCADA system is and the main parts of it. To implement it, we used low-power devices called Raspberry PI, these are located between the network and the final device to analyze it. In these Raspberry run two applications client-server developed (the central Raspberry runs the server application and the slaves the client application) that work cooperatively using Hadoop distributed technology, which is previously explained. Using this technology is achieved develop a fully scalable system. The server application displays a graphical interface to manage analytics platform centrally, thereby we can see each device alarms and qualifying each packet by dangerousness. The algorithm developed in the application calculates the ratio of packets/time entering/leaving the terminal device, processing the packets and analyzing the signaling information of each packet, reating different databases that will improve the system, thereby reducing the possibility of external attacks. In conclusion, the initial project included cloud computing of the main application, being able to manage multiple concurrent infrastructure, but due to the extra work required has been made ready the system to implement this funcionality. In the current test case the server application processing is made on the main Raspberry, creating a scalable, fast and fault-tolerant system.

Configuración de un entorno de trabajo para el desarrollo de software ágil con integración continua

Hoy en día, existen numerosos sistemas (financieros, fabricación industrial, infraestructura de servicios básicos, etc.) que son dependientes del software. Según la definición de Ingeniería del Software realizada por I. Sommerville, “la Ingeniería del Software es una disciplina de la ingeniería que comprende todos los aspectos de la producción de software desde las etapas iniciales de la especificación del sistema, hasta el mantenimiento de éste después de que se utiliza.” “La ingeniería del software no sólo comprende los procesos técnicos del desarrollo de software, sino también actividades tales como la gestión de proyectos de software y el desarrollo de herramientas, métodos y teorías de apoyo a la producción de software.” Los modelos de proceso de desarrollo software determinan una serie de pautas para poder desarrollar con éxito un proyecto de desarrollo software. Desde que surgieran estos modelos de proceso, se investigado en nuevas maneras de poder gestionar un proyecto y producir software de calidad. En primer lugar surgieron las metodologías pesadas o tradicionales, pero con el avance del tiempo y la tecnología, surgieron unas nuevas llamadas metodologías ágiles. En el marco de las metodologías ágiles cabe destacar una determinada práctica, la integración continua. Esta práctica surgió de la mano de Martin Fowler, con el objetivo de facilitar el trabajo en grupo y automatizar las tareas de integración. La integración continua se basa en la construcción automática de proyectos con una frecuencia alta, promoviendo la detección de errores en un momento temprano para poder dar prioridad a corregir dichos errores. Sin embargo, una de las claves del éxito en el desarrollo de cualquier proyecto software consiste en utilizar un entorno de trabajo que facilite, sistematice y ayude a aplicar un proceso de desarrollo de una forma eficiente. Este Proyecto Fin de Grado (PFG) tiene por objetivo el análisis de distintas herramientas para configurar un entorno de trabajo que permita desarrollar proyectos aplicando metodologías ágiles e integración continua de una forma fácil y eficiente. Una vez analizadas dichas herramientas, se ha propuesto y configurado un entorno de trabajo para su puesta en marcha y uso. Una característica a destacar de este PFG es que las herramientas analizadas comparten una cualidad común y de alto valor, son herramientas open-source. El entorno de trabajo propuesto en este PFG presenta una arquitectura cliente-servidor, dado que la mayoría de proyectos software se desarrollan en equipo, de tal forma que el servidor proporciona a los distintos clientes/desarrolladores acceso al conjunto de herramientas que constituyen el entorno de trabajo. La parte servidora del entorno propuesto proporciona soporte a la integración continua mediante herramientas de control de versiones, de gestión de historias de usuario, de análisis de métricas de software, y de automatización de la construcción de software. La configuración del cliente únicamente requiere de un entorno de desarrollo integrado (IDE) que soporte el lenguaje de programación Java y conexión con el servidor. ABSTRACT Nowadays, numerous systems (financial, industrial production, basic services infrastructure, etc.) depend on software. According to the Software Engineering definition made by I.Sommerville, “Software engineering is an engineering discipline that is concerned with all aspects of software production from the early stages of system specification through to maintaining the system after it has gone into use.” “Software engineering is not just concerned with the technical processes of software development. It also includes activities such as software project management and the development of tools, methods, and theories to support software production.” Software development process models determine a set of guidelines to successfully develop a software development project. Since these process models emerged, new ways of managing a project and producing software with quality have been investigated. First, the so-called heavy or traditional methodologies appeared, but with the time and the technological improvements, new methodologies emerged: the so-called agile methodologies. Agile methodologies promote, among other practices, continuous integration. This practice was coined by Martin Fowler and aims to make teamwork easier as well as automate integration tasks. Nevertheless, one of the keys to success in software projects is to use a framework that facilitates, systematize, and help to deploy a development process in an efficient way. This Final Degree Project (FDP) aims to analyze different tools to configure a framework that enables to develop projects by applying agile methodologies and continuous integration in an easy and efficient way. Once tools are analyzed, a framework has been proposed and configured. One of the main features of this FDP is that the tools under analysis share a common and high-valued characteristic: they are open-source. The proposed framework presents a client-server architecture, as most of the projects are developed by a team. In this way, the server provides access the clients/developers to the tools that comprise the framework. The server provides continuous integration through a set of tools for control management, user stories management, software quality management, and software construction automatization. The client configuration only requires a Java integrated development environment and network connection to the server.

Framework para el desarrollo con el DNIe

El proyecto se trata de una API de desarrollo para el DNI electrónico que permita crear de forma sencilla aplicaciones cuya funcionalidad se apoye en el uso del DNI electrónico. De esta forma, el framework facilita el acceso a las principales operaciones soportadas por el DNIe mediante la invocación de métodos sencillos. Una de las funcionalidades es la de realizar un proceso de autenticación con el DNIe utilizando para ello las capacidades criptográficas del chip que incorpora y el certificado de autenticación. Esta funcionalidad puede ser accedida también de forma dividida en dos pasos, para dar soporte a aplicaciones con arquitectura cliente-servidor. El framework también ofrece la funcionalidad de firma electrónica con el DNIe, una firma legalmente válida y que permite chequear también la integridad del mensaje firmado. También se soporta por el framework la comprobación de un certificado mediante el protocolo OCSP, funcionalidad que si bien no implica directamente al DNIe, sí que es importante en el marco de procesos que se ven involucrados en cualquier Infraestructura de Clave Pública. ABSTRACT The project is a development API for DNIe card that allows easily create applications whose functionality is supported in the use of DNIe. Thus, the framework provides access to the main operations supported by the DNIe by invoking simple methods. One of the features is to perform an authentication process with the DNIe using its chip’s capabilities and authentication certificate. This functionality can also be accessed so divided into two steps, to support applications with client-server architecture. The framework also provides the functionality of electronic signatures with DNIe, a legally valid signature and allows also check the integrity of the signed message. Verification of a certificate using OCSP, functionality but does not imply directly to DNIe is also supported by the framework, yes it is important in the context of processes that are involved in any Public Key Infrastructure.

Cuadro de mando, plataforma de gestión para el modelo EFQM

La propuesta del trabajo de fin de grado escogida por el autor del proyecto se basa en la continuación del proyecto comenzado durante la asignatura de Prácticum del pasado semestre. El nacimiento del mismo se gestó en una pequeña empresa de consultoría llamada ‘Grupo Develop’ (en la sección ‘Entidad colaboradora y ubicación’ se describe más detalladamente la organización) situada al este de Madrid, una organización con carácter de fundación y dedicada, esencialmente, al sector de la consultoría en el sector de la calidad. Grupo Develop necesitaba aprovechar la utilidad de las nuevas tecnologías para ofrecer un nuevo y mejor servicio para sus clientes mediante un proyecto que fuera dirigido y llevado a cabo por un ingeniero informático. Partiendo de este contexto se vislumbró un proyecto consistente en diseñar, desplegar, programar y mantener una plataforma-sistema informático capaz de ayudar a las organizaciones (en este caso particular la mayoría son organizaciones sin ánimo de lucro) a gestionarse mejor de acuerdo a distintos modelos de calidad como pueden ser el EFQM1 o ISO. Además, la certificación en ambos modelos son cada vez más demandados como garantía de calidad por organismos públicos y privados e incluso por los clientes. Por lo tanto, este programa debe llegar a ser una herramienta que realmente apoye a cada entidad a elaborar un diagnóstico de su gestión y, por supuesto, debe conseguir acercar a estas empresas a los certificados más prestigiosos. Desde el punto de vista de un profesional del sector de la informática, el proyecto se estructura de una forma clara en una arquitectura cliente-servidor clásica donde todas las entidades (de momento 15) han participado de forma activa y paralela al desarrollo del proyecto. Si bien es cierto que esto ha ralentizado notablemente el desarrollo del proyecto y ha requerido una sincronización entre dos proyectos paralelos (uno para el despliegue y otro para el desarrollo).---ABSTRACT---The proposal of my graduation work is a continuation of the project that I already started in the Practicum subject the first part of the academic year. The birth of that project arose in a small consulting firm (Grupo Develop) in the east of Madrid, an organization that at the same time is incorporated as a Foundation. This organization works with different NGO´s and their work covers the Quality Consulting Sector. Grupo Develop needed to use new technologies to give a new and best service to our customers through a project managed by a person trained in the computer science area. Starting from this context, Grupo Develop saw a new opportunity to create a project to design, deploy and maintain a platform-system that can help our customers (in this case the organizations are often organizations from the Third Sector) to get a best management in some Norms or Models like ISO or EFQM. Also in some cases the Certifications of any of these models are increasingly demanded as quality assurance by public entities, privates and even by clients. Therefore, this program should be a tool that helps to any organization to make a diagnosis of their management and, of course, should close to these companies to the most prestigious Certificates. From a point of view of a computer science student, the software project has a defined structure in a classic client-server model where all the organizations (15) have actively participated in parallel mode to the development of the project. It is true that the involvement of the organizations has slowed the development of the project so I had to create two projects (one for the different organizations and the other one to develop the major improvements).

Visual perception for the 3D recognition of geometric pieces in robotic manipulation

During grasping and intelligent robotic manipulation tasks, the camera position relative to the scene changes dramatically because the robot is moving to adapt its path and correctly grasp objects. This is because the camera is mounted at the robot effector. For this reason, in this type of environment, a visual recognition system must be implemented to recognize and “automatically and autonomously” obtain the positions of objects in the scene. Furthermore, in industrial environments, all objects that are manipulated by robots are made of the same material and cannot be differentiated by features such as texture or color. In this work, first, a study and analysis of 3D recognition descriptors has been completed for application in these environments. Second, a visual recognition system designed from specific distributed client-server architecture has been proposed to be applied in the recognition process of industrial objects without these appearance features. Our system has been implemented to overcome problems of recognition when the objects can only be recognized by geometric shape and the simplicity of shapes could create ambiguity. Finally, some real tests are performed and illustrated to verify the satisfactory performance of the proposed system.

Internet computing with distributed software agent

The phenomenonal growth of the Internet has connected us to a vast amount of computation and information resources around the world. However, making use of these resources is difficult due to the unparalleled massiveness, high communication latency, share-nothing architecture and unreliable connection of the Internet. In this dissertation, we present a distributed software agent approach, which brings a new distributed problem-solving paradigm to the Internet computing researches with enhanced client-server scheme, inherent scalability and heterogeneity. Our study discusses the role of a distributed software agent in Internet computing and classifies it into three major categories by the objects it interacts with: computation agent, information agent and interface agent. The discussion of the problem domain and the deployment of the computation agent and the information agent are presented with the analysis, design and implementation of the experimental systems in high performance Internet computing and in scalable Web searching. ^ In the computation agent study, high performance Internet computing can be achieved with our proposed Java massive computation agent (JAM) model. We analyzed the JAM computing scheme and built a brutal force cipher text decryption prototype. In the information agent study, we discuss the scalability problem of the existing Web search engines and designed the approach of Web searching with distributed collaborative index agent. This approach can be used for constructing a more accurate, reusable and scalable solution to deal with the growth of the Web and of the information on the Web. ^ Our research reveals that with the deployment of the distributed software agent in Internet computing, we can have a more cost effective approach to make better use of the gigantic scale network of computation and information resources on the Internet. The case studies in our research show that we are now able to solve many practically hard or previously unsolvable problems caused by the inherent difficulties of Internet computing. ^

Design of a dynamic e-commerce system with engineering applications

The primary purpose of this thesis was to design and develop a prototype e-commerce system where dynamic parameters are included in the decision-making process and execution of an online transaction. The system developed and implemented takes into account previous usage history, priority and associated engineering capabilities. The system was developed using three-tiered client server architecture. The interface was the Internet browser. The middle tiered web server was implemented using Active Server Pages, which form a link between the client system and other servers. A relational database management system formed the data component of the three-tiered architecture. It includes a capability for data warehousing which extracts needed information from the stored data of the customers as well as their orders. The system organizes and analyzes the data that is generated during a transaction to formulate a client's behavior model during and after a transaction. This is used for making decisions like pricing, order rescheduling during a client's forthcoming transaction. The system helps among other things to bring about predictability to a transaction execution process, which could be highly desirable in the current competitive scenario.

Streaming di immagini via ethernet con Zynq con sistemi operativi Standalone e Linux

Il seguente lavoro di tesi si inserisce all'interno di un progetto accademico volto alla realizzazione di un sistema capace elaborare immagini utilizzando una rete FPGA, acquisite da un sensore. Ogni scrittura di un nuovo frame in memoria RAM genera un interrupt. L'obiettivo della tesi è creare un sistema client/server che permetta il trasferimento del flusso di frame dalla ZedBoard a un PC e la visualizzazione a video. Il progetto eseguito sulla ZedBoard è proposto in due versioni: la prima in assenza di sistema operativo (Standalone) e una seconda implementata su Linux. Il progetto eseguito sul PC è compatibile con Linux e Windows. La visualizzazione delle immagini è implementata utilizzando la libreria OpenCV.

EMMA 2--a MAGE-compliant system for the collaborative analysis and integration of microarray data

Background: Understanding transcriptional regulation by genome-wide microarray studies can contribute to unravel complex relationships between genes. Attempts to standardize the annotation of microarray data include the Minimum Information About a Microarray Experiment (MIAME) recommendations, the MAGE-ML format for data interchange, and the use of controlled vocabularies or ontologies. The existing software systems for microarray data analysis implement the mentioned standards only partially and are often hard to use and extend. Integration of genomic annotation data and other sources of external knowledge using open standards is therefore a key requirement for future integrated analysis systems. Results: The EMMA 2 software has been designed to resolve shortcomings with respect to full MAGE-ML and ontology support and makes use of modern data integration techniques. We present a software system that features comprehensive data analysis functions for spotted arrays, and for the most common synthesized oligo arrays such as Agilent, Affymetrix and NimbleGen. The system is based on the full MAGE object model. Analysis functionality is based on R and Bioconductor packages and can make use of a compute cluster for distributed services. Conclusion: Our model-driven approach for automatically implementing a full MAGE object model provides high flexibility and compatibility. Data integration via SOAP-based web-services is advantageous in a distributed client-server environment as the collaborative analysis of microarray data is gaining more and more relevance in international research consortia. The adequacy of the EMMA 2 software design and implementation has been proven by its application in many distributed functional genomics projects. Its scalability makes the current architecture suited for extensions towards future transcriptomics methods based on high-throughput sequencing approaches which have much higher computational requirements than microarrays.

Progettazione e realizzazione di un'applicazione social georeferenziata per dispositivi android

In questo lavoro di tesi abbiamo ideato e implementato un nuovo social network combinando in una sola applicazione per dispositivi mobili alcune nuove idee con altre già esistenti, ma ancora poco sviluppate. Dopo aver analizzato le app attualmente esistenti, si sono definite le caratteristiche dell'applicazione che si vuole creare, traendo ispirazione da Snapchat, Foursquare e Whisper. L'obiettivo è un'applicazione che permette agli utenti di inviare messaggi con testo e immagini geotaggati sulla loro posizione. Essi saranno anonimi, dato che gli utenti avranno la possibilità di creare e utilizzare facilmente più identità. I messaggi potranno essere votati e commentati e avranno una durata definita dall'autore, dopo di che si autodistruggeranno. Tutti i messaggi saranno visibili su una mappa che li mostrerà nel punto in cui l'autore si trovava quando li ha inviati. Gli utenti riceveranno una notifica per i nuovi messaggi inviati nelle loro vicinanze. I primi mesi di lavoro sul progetto sono stati dedicati al perfezionamento dell'idea originale e alla realizzazione della parte server. In questa fase è stato acquisito e configurato un Virtual Private Server, è stato progettato e creato il database MySql, ed è stata implementata la logica applicativa lato server in PHP. Successivamente, ci si è concentrati sulla progettazione e realizzazione dell'applicazione stessa, scegliendo la piattaforma Android e programmando in linguaggio Java. In questa fase si è definita e implementata l'interfaccia utente e la logica applicativa lato client. Giunti ad un buon livello di sviluppo, si è cominciato a distribuire limitatamente una versione alpha dell'applicazione per ottenere feedback dagli utenti, soprattutto riguardanti l'usabilità. La seguente tesi descrive in dettaglio l'idea di partenza, l'architettura del progetto e le funzionalità realizzate, per concludersi con una previsione degli sviluppi futuri. Vi è inoltre in allegato il codice sorgente dell'applicazione Android realizzata.

Workout Manager Android App

L’obiettivo di questa tesi è quello di progettare e sviluppare un'applicazione Android inerente alle palestre. In particolare l'utente finale dovrà essere in grado di poter scaricare i propri allenamenti da un server SQL remoto e visualizzarli con un layout grafico che ne ricordi la struttura di un allenamento cartaceo (con l’utilizzo quindi di schede, esercizi, serie, ripetizioni,...). Attraverso una procedura guidata, l’applicazione dovrà seguire l’utente durante il suo allenamento e registrarne i progressi. Questi ultimi dovranno essere memorizzati permanentemente e visualizzati attraverso dei grafici.
