Os investimentos em projetos de tecnologia da informação são responsáveis por porções cada vez maiores do orçamento das empresas. Os empresários, conscientes da necessidade de projetos nesta área, defrontam-se com dificuldades no momento de avaliar a plenitude de benefícios oferecidos por tais projetos. Parece existir relação de causalidade entre o sucesso do projeto de tecnologia da informação e a escolha da tecnologia mas, ao mesmo tempo, não se dispõe de ferramentas adequadas para a avaliação de benefícios intangíveis. Diante disso, estabeleceu-se como objetivo geral do presente estudo analisar o impacto dos investimentos em tecnologia da informação, sob a ótica de executivos gaúchos. Para atingir o objetivo proposto foi revista a literatura e realizadas entrevistas com empresários responsáveis pela decisão de investimentos em empresas clientes de um sistema de controle de manutenção de máquinas e equipamentos. Os empresários foram entrevistados com base em um instrumento desenvolvido por Gunasekaran (2001) no Reino Unido e adaptado para seu uso na realidade brasileira. A adaptação do questionário foi baseada em tradução, tradução reversa e em três entrevistas prévias, sendo então aplicado em 12 entrevistas. Os dados obtidos foram analisados e comparados com o encontrado pelo autor do modelo original no Reino Unido. Os resultados encontrados validam a bibliografia. Em primeiro lugar, os entrevistados concordam que os métodos puramente financeiros são insuficientes por não considerarem todos os aspectos envolvidos. Em segundo lugar, as entrevistas mostraram a importância dos ganhos em termos de intangíveis. Finalmente, os dados também apontaram para a importância das organizações detalharem os efeitos do projeto devido à importância destas informações para futuras decisões de investimento.

O Brasil praticamente alcançou a provisão universal dos serviços públicos de educação, saúde e assistência social nos últimos anos, mas a qualidade desses serviços ainda está bem atrás da maioria dos países desenvolvidos. As instituições de controle são atores relevantes nesse contexto, pois é seu dever avaliar a efetividade e a eficiência da provisão desses serviços públicos. Entretanto, pouco se sabe sobre a efetividade dessas instituições, especialmente no Brasil. Os artigos de Olken (2007), Reinikka e Svensson (2004) e Di Tella & Schargrodsky (2000) trazem alguns elementos para essa discussão, ao mostrar como e onde políticas de boas práticas podem funcionar em outros países. No Brasil, estudos empíricos sobre essas políticas são escassos. Nesta tese, meu principal objetivo é trazer evidências sobre a efetividade da auditoria pública no Brasil. Utilizando um experimento de campo, eu avalio a efetividade do trabalho de auditoria da Controladoria-Geral da União (CGU) no âmbito do Programa de Fiscalização a partir de Sorteios Públicos. Os principais tópicos discutidos aqui são relativos à gestão de programas em nível local e aos processos licitatórios a eles associados. Os municípios no grupo de tratamento são submetidos a um aumento na probabilidade de receber uma auditoria, enquanto os de controle permanecem com probabilidade inalterada. Os resultados sugerem que os gestores locais são sensíveis ao tratamento quando focamos as licitações, mas não quando a questão é a gestão de programas. Em seguida ao experimento, utilizo um modelo "Fora da Amostra" para sugerir um mecanismo de alocação de recursos financeiros e humanos, para melhorar os níveis de eficiência do trabalho de campo da CGU

No Brasil, a sociedade observa atônita a corrupção, o descaso com o dinheiro público e a prestação de serviços essenciais, que ficam aquém de suas expectativas. Para que haja mudanças no setor público, torna-se imprescindível a adoção de boas práticas de governança que promovam a adequação dos serviços prestados, de forma que possam se tornar mais eficientes e eficazes. Nessa seara, incluem-se as instituições provedoras de segurança pública, que, para cumprir suas atribuições, precisam estar bem equipadas, possuir recursos humanos suficientes e apresentar uma gestão íntegra, transparente e responsável. Nesse contexto, esta dissertação teve como objetivo diagnosticar as práticas de gestão da Polícia Federal e compará-las aos padrões de boa governança no setor público recomendados pelo Estudo 13 do PSC/IFAC. Os resultados demonstraram que grande parte das práticas de gestão adotadas pela Polícia Federal apresenta-se em conformidade com as boas práticas de governança sugeridas no referido Estudo. Destacaram-se positivamente as práticas relacionadas a padrões de comportamento e a estruturas e processos organizacionais. Por outro lado, constatou-se a inexistência de um código de conduta próprio e a ausência de treinamento inicial do membro do grupo governante, quando de sua nomeação ou durante seu mandato. Quanto às práticas de gestão relacionadas a controle, foram diagnosticadas falhas em gestão de riscos, em decorrência da falta de aplicação em todos os objetivos organizacionais. Comportamento semelhante foi observado no controle interno, que, apesar de ser constantemente monitorado, não pode ser avaliado quanto à adequação e efetividade. Quanto às práticas relativas a relatórios externos, constatou-se que a instituição elabora relatórios equilibrados, transparentes e de fácil compreensão, em conformidade com a legislação vigente e padrões contábeis. Entretanto, a Polícia Federal não demonstrou expressamente o cumprimento de códigos de governança, tampouco empregou indicadores de desempenho suficientes para mostrar que os recursos vêm sendo usados com eficiência. Concluiu-se que a Polícia Federal adota boas práticas de gestão, mas ainda pode implementar outras recomendações de boa governança, contribuindo para que o país caminhe para atingir a excelência na gestão dos recursos públicos e assuma uma posição de destaque no cenário internacional.

Esta pesquisa teve por objetivo identificar os aspectos de uma polícia profissional presentes na literatura especializada sobre o assunto e compará-los com a Polícia Federal Brasileira, utilizando-se de pesquisa bibliográfica, documental e de campo. Para isso, pesquisou-se os conceitos de profissionalização policial na literatura e verificou-se que sua definição é controversa e complexa e que as reformas ocorridas nas policias ocidentais, principalmente nos EUA e Inglaterra, no final do século XIX até metade do século XX, criaram um modelo burocrático de polícia, com uma estrutura militarizada e com ênfase na aplicação da lei. Esse modelo influenciou o modelo profissional das polícias brasileiras, e em destaque, a Polícia Federal brasileira. Identificou-se dez principais aspectos de uma polícia profissional. Estes foram divididos em 18 itens, e realizou-se uma pesquisa documental para verificar como esses aspectos estavam presentes na Polícia Federal brasileira e levantou-se algumas hipóteses/suposições sobre os problemas encontrados. Após, realizou-se pesquisa quantitativa, através de um questionário estruturado, com 25 perguntas, para a população de policiais federais dos cargos de Agente, Escrivão e Papiloscopistas de Polícia Federal lotados na Delegacia de Polícia Federal em Foz do Iguaçu-PR, sobre os aspectos verificados na pesquisa documental Com a pesquisa, verificou-se que, na opinião dos respondentes, os itens com maiores problemas eram os relacionados à carreira policial (promoção de classes, funções do cargo e avaliação de desempenho), controle interno (estrutura de corregedorias e aplicação de penalidade), remuneração, cursos de progressão de classes na carreira e a relação democrática entre os servidores policiais. Em relação aos itens mais bem avaliados, destacam-se os relacionados à formação profissional do policial, a deontologia policial e o relacionamento democrático do policial federal com o cidadão.

The progressing cavity pump artificial lift system, PCP, is a main lift system used in oil production industry. As this artificial lift application grows the knowledge of it s dynamics behavior, the application of automatic control and the developing of equipment selection design specialist systems are more useful. This work presents tools for dynamic analysis, control technics and a specialist system for selecting lift equipments for this artificial lift technology. The PCP artificial lift system consists of a progressing cavity pump installed downhole in the production tubing edge. The pump consists of two parts, a stator and a rotor, and is set in motion by the rotation of the rotor transmitted through a rod string installed in the tubing. The surface equipment generates and transmits the rotation to the rod string. First, is presented the developing of a complete mathematical dynamic model of PCP system. This model is simplified for use in several conditions, including steady state for sizing PCP equipments, like pump, rod string and drive head. This model is used to implement a computer simulator able to help in system analysis and to operates as a well with a controller and allows testing and developing of control algorithms. The next developing applies control technics to PCP system to optimize pumping velocity to achieve productivity and durability of downhole components. The mathematical model is linearized to apply conventional control technics including observability and controllability of the system and develop design rules for PI controller. Stability conditions are stated for operation point of the system. A fuzzy rule-based control system are developed from a PI controller using a inference machine based on Mandami operators. The fuzzy logic is applied to develop a specialist system that selects PCP equipments too. The developed technics to simulate and the linearized model was used in an actual well where a control system is installed. This control system consists of a pump intake pressure sensor, an industrial controller and a variable speed drive. The PI control was applied and fuzzy controller was applied to optimize simulated and actual well operation and the results was compared. The simulated and actual open loop response was compared to validate simulation. A case study was accomplished to validate equipment selection specialist system

Artificial Intelligence techniques are applied to improve performance of a simulated oil distillation system. The chosen system was a debutanizer column. At this process, the feed, which comes to the column, is segmented by heating. The lightest components become steams, by forming the LPG (Liquefied Petroleum Gas). The others components, C5+, continue liquid. In the composition of the LPG, ideally, we have only propane and butanes, but, in practice, there are contaminants, for example, pentanes. The objective of this work is to control pentane amount in LPG, by means of intelligent set points (SP s) determination for PID controllers that are present in original instrumentation (regulatory control) of the column. A fuzzy system will be responsible for adjusting the SP's, driven by the comparison between the molar fraction of the pentane present in the output of the plant (LPG) and the desired amount. However, the molar fraction of pentane is difficult to measure on-line, due to constraints such as: long intervals of measurement, high reliability and low cost. Therefore, an inference system was used, based on a multilayer neural network, to infer the pentane molar fraction through secondary variables of the column. Finally, the results shown that the proposed control system were able to control the value of pentane molar fraction under different operational situations

In this work, the variable structure adaptive pole placement controller (VS-APPC) robustness and performance are evaluated and this algorithm is applied in a motor control system. The controller robustness evaluation will be done through simulations, where will be introduced in the system the following adversities: time delay, actuator response boundeds, disturbances, parametric variation and unmodeled dynamics. The VS-APPC will be compared with PI control, pole placement control (PPC) and adaptive pole placement controller (APPC). The VS-APPC will be simulated to track a step and a sine reference. It will be applied in a three-phase induction motor control system to track a sine signal in the stator reference frame. Simulation and experimental results will prove the efficiency and robustness of this control strategy

Electrical Motors transform electrical energy into mechanic energy in a relatively easy way. In some specific applications, there is a need for electrical motors to function with noncontaminated fluids, in high speed systems, under inhospitable conditions, or yet, in local of difficult access and considerable depth. In these cases, the motors with mechanical bearings are not adequate as their wear give rise to maintenance. A possible solution for these problems stems from two different alternatives: motors with magnetic bearings, that increase the length of the machine (not convenient), and the bearingless motors that aggregate compactness. Induction motors have been used more and more in research, as they confer more robustness to bearingless motors compared to other types of machines building with others motors. The research that has already been carried out with bearingless induction motors utilized prototypes that had their structures of stator/rotor modified, that differ most of the times from the conventional induction motors. The goal of this work is to study the viability of the use of conventional induction Motors for the beringless motors applications, pointing out the types of Motors of this category that can be more useful. The study uses the Finite Elements Method (FEM). As a means of validation, a conventional induction motor with squirrel-cage rotor was successfully used for the beringless motor application of the divided winding type, confirming the proposed thesis. The controlling system was implemented in a Digital Signal Processor (DSP)

Vegetables drying plays an important role in the field of food dehydration, being a very old practice that was originated from sun drying items of food in order to preserve them to be consumed during the periods of scarcity. One of these vegetables is the tomato, that was originally grown in South America. Tomatoes are easily perishable after being picked up from the tree and this makes the process of tomato dehydration a challenge due to the high amount of water (95%) contained in them. The present research work was mainly intended to develop alternative processes for tomato conservation, by drying slices of skinned and unskinned tomatoes in the in natura form or in the osmotically pre-dehydrated form. Firstly, the best conditions of the osmotic pre-dehydration process were defined including temperature, immersion time and concentration of the osmotic solution, based on the results of water loss, solids gain and weigh reduction of the pre-dehydration tomatoes at different processing conditions. The osmotic solution used was made up of NaCl (5 and 10%) and sucrose (25 and 35%) at different combinations. For a fixed conditions of osmotic pre-dehydration, the drying tests of the pre-processed and in natura tomatoes were carried out in a stove with air circulation and a convective dryer with trays, at two levels of temperature. The sensorial analysis of the osmotically pre-treated and unskinned dehydrated tomatoes was carried out as well as a study on the their shelf-live. The results obtained showed that the drying of the tomatoes took place as a result of the internal control of the water transport, and did not show a constant rate, while two distinct periods of the decreasing phase were observed. The osmotic pre treatment substancially reduced the initial amount of humidity in the tomatoes, thus reducing the necessary time for the product to attain levels of intermediate humidity. The impermeability of the tomato skin was identified as well as the unfavorable influence of the pre-treatment on the unskinned tomatoes, whose solid gain brought about a decrease in the water activity with subsequent reduction of the drying rate. Despite the various simplifications carried out during the development of this study, the proposed diffusive model adjusted to the experimental data satisfactorily, thus making it possible to determine the effective coefficients of diffusion, whose results were consistent and compatible with those found in the current literature. Concerning the higher rates of evaporation and the lowest processing time, the best results were obtained in the drying of the unskinned, in natura tomatoes and of the skinned, pre-dehydrated tomatoes, at 60ºC, both processed in the convective drier. The results of the sensorial analysis of the unskinned and pre-treated product did not prove to be satisfactory. Regarding the shelf-live of the tomatoes, for a period of 45 days, no physicochemical or microbiological alteration of the product was noted

This study aims to assess the potential for industrial reuse of textile wastewater, after passing through a physical and chemical pretreatment, into denim washing wet processing operations in an industrial textile laundry, with no need for complementary treatments and dilutions. The methodology and evaluation of the proposed tests were based on the production techniques used in the company and upgraded for the experiments tested. The characterization of the treated effluent for 16 selected parameters and the development of a monitoring able to tailor the treated effluent for final disposal in accordance with current legislation was essential for the initiation of testing for reuse. The parameters color, turbidity, SS and pH used were satisfactory as control variables and presents simple determination methods. The denim quality variables considered were: color, odor, appearance and soft handle. The tests were started on a pilot scale following complexity factors attributed to the processes, in denim fabric and jeans, which demonstrated the possibility of reuse, because there was no interference in the processes and at quality of the tested product. Industrial scale tests were initiated by a step control that confirmed the methodology efficiency applied to identify the possibility of reuse by tests that precede each recipe to be processed. 556 replicates were performed in production scale for 47 different recipes of denim washing. The percentage of water reuse was 100% for all processes and repetitions performed after the initial adjustment testing phase. All the jeans were framed with the highest quality for internal control and marketed, being accepted by contractors. The full-scale use of treated wastewater, supported by monitoring and evaluation and control methodology suggested in this study, proved to be valid in textile production, not given any negative impact to the quality the produced jeans under the presented conditions. It is believed that this methodology can be extrapolated to other laundries to determine the possibility of reuse in denim washing wet processing with the necessary modifications to each company.
