Gestão da segurança da informação: certificação digital

More over, the information has become the main asset of the institutions. Being thus, the Information Security (IS) is getting attention as one of the activities of extreme importance in the corporations. Guarantee the confidentiality, integrity, availability, no deny and legality becomes something very important for the day-by-day of the businesses. An analysis of the risk, passing through the assessment of the threats and vulnerabilities, is mandatory to let grow the activities of the institutions. Digital Certification came into IS to guarantee the Not Deny (ND) because it makes the unquestioned identification of the person that makes the action. Therefore, Information Security can be defined as a knowledge field focused in the protection of the information assets against: unauthorized access, improper modifications, not availability, deny of authorship and illegality.

Estrutura organizacional do tipo network e a satisfação no trabalho

Muitos historiadores afirmam que estamos iniciando uma nova era, a era do conhecimento, da informação, a era digital. Surgem duas grandes armas estratégicas nesse novo ambiente global, para que as empresas sejam competitivas no século vinte e um: a criatividade e a integração. E muitas empresas estão adotando uma nova estrutura organizacional, a estrutura do tipo network, como solução para a gerência da criatividade e da integração. Essa estrutura não se preocupa com novas maneiras de manipular subordinados em vantagem própria. Ao contrário, ela nos desafia a repensar o básico: nossos valores, atitudes e considerações a respeito de liderança, trabalho e tempo. As estruturas hierárquicas convencionais não proporcionam a agilidade de resposta requerida pelo mercado atualmente, devido à burocracia por trás de todas as atividades. As pessoas especializam-se em pequenas atividades, perdendo o sentido do trabalho e a motivação intrínseca. E uma vez que as pessoas são crescentemente reconhecidas como o capital mais importante de qualquer empreendimento, a desmotivação se toma desastrosa para o futuro de qualquer negócio. A reciprocidade empresa-indivíduo é essencial. Esta dissertação pretende analisar o fator humano nos trabalhos realizados dentro da estrutura de network, traçando-se um paralelo entre as propostas dessa estrutura e as necessidades humanas, demonstrando a relação existente entre a estrutura organizacional da criatividade e da integração e a satisfação no trabalho. Iniciamente, apresenta-se uma revisão bibliográfica, sob três diferentes enfoques. Primeiro, explica-se como as transformações mundiais estão afetando a estratégia das empresas. Depois, mostra-se o impacto da estratégia do século vinte e um dentro da organização. Por fim, focaliza-se o lado psicológico do ser humano, suas necessidades, tais quais a autonomia, a competência e o relacionamento interpessoal, os fatores de satisfação intrínsecos e extrínsecos. Assim, pode-se avaliar o impacto de uma nova estrutura organizacional na motivação dos funcionários. A seguir, apresenta-se o projeto de uma pesquisa-piloto dos fatores de satisfação mais relevantes para as pessoas, confirmando-se a importância dos fatores de satisfação intrínsecos. Mostra-se também que os índices de satisfação são diretamente afetados pelo ambiente empresarial onde atuam, de acordo com seu grau de autonomia. Então, são mostradas as conclusões do trabalho e recomendações práticas para mudanças na estrutura organizacional dentro de uma empresa, seus custos e como elas devem ser administradas no longo prazo.

Private or public? a taxonomy of optimal ownership and management regimes

We develop a theory of public versus private ownership based on value diversion by managers. Government is assumed to face stronger institutional constraints than has been assumed in previous literature. The model which emerges from these assumptions is fexible and has wide application. We provide amapping between the qualitative characteristics of an asset, its main use - including public goods characteristics, and spillovers toother assets values - and the optimal ownership and management regime. The model is applied to single and multiple related assets. We address questions such as; when is it optimal to have one of a pair ofr elated assets public and the other private; when is joint management desirable; and when should a public asset be managed by the owner of a related private asset? We show that while private ownership can be judged optimal in some cases solely on the basis of qualitative information, the optimality of any other ownership and management regimes relies on quantitative analysis. Our results reveal the situations in which policy makers will have difficulty in determining the opimal regime.

Public debt management, monetary policy and financial institutions

Despite the large size of the Brazilian debt market, as well the large diversity of its bonds, the picture that emerges is of a market that has not yet completed its transition from the role it performed during the megainflation years, namely that of providing a liquid asset that provided positive real returns. This unfinished transition is currently placing the market under severe stress, as fears of a possible default from the next administration grow larger. This paper analyzes several aspects pertaining to the management of the domestic public debt. The causes for the extremely large and fast growth ofthe domestic public debt during the seven-year period that President Cardoso are discussed in Section 2. Section 3 computes Value at Risk and Cash Flow at Risk measures for the domestic public debt. The rollover risk is introduced in a mean-variance framework in Section 4. Section 5 discusses a few issues pertaining to the overlap between debt management and monetary policy. Finally, Section 6 wraps up with policy discussion and policy recommendations.

Democracia digital e participação cidadã: um estudo de caso do governo do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul

Este trabalho teve como principal objetivo avaliar o processo participativo digital relativo à segunda edição do Governador Pergunta. Nesse sentido, foram utilizadas algumas das categorias e critérios propostos por Villela (2012) cujos objetivos são a avaliação de processos participativos. A utilização de tais critérios se apoia na concepção de cidadania deliberativa, ampliada por conceitos de democracia digital. Optou-se por analisa-lo a partir de alguns critérios de avaliação de processos participativos deliberativos, quais sejam: Processos de Discussão, Inclusão, Pluralismo e Bem Comum. Os dados foram coletados, em um primeiro momento, por meio de pesquisa bibliográfica. Em seguida, foram realizadas entrevistas junto aos principais atores envolvidos no Gabinete Digital e na consulta pública digital do trânsito do Governador Pergunta. Em suma, os resultados apontam para a existência de espaços para discussão, contudo sem capacidade deliberativa. Entretanto, tal experiência participativa cidadã tratou por renovar e pautar a agenda pública no Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. Por fim, apresentam-se recomendações para o aperfeiçoamento do Gabinete Digital e da ferramenta do Governador Pergunta pela gestão pública.

O presente trabalho tem como principal objetivo a descrição da sistemática de certificação digital a ser implementada na Prefeitura de Santos, como parte de um processo maior, a implementação dos Processos Digitais naquele município através da verificação e o acompanhamento dos principais desafios que a Prefeitura Municipal de Santos, por intermédio de sua Secretaria de Gestão, encontrou para a contratação e implantação da fé pública exigida para o correto enquadramento legal do programa de digitalização dos processos administrativos da Municipalidade. Para tanto, tem-se como base a pesquisa de material legal, especialmente do Decreto do Prefeito de Santos e da Portaria Municipal da Secretaria de Gestão que criou efetivamente a obrigação para que todos os servidores do Município elaborem determinados processos administrativos de maneira unicamente digital. Ainda, a MP 2001-02/2001 que trata da certificação digital é retratada. Angariar informações, desde as básicas, como quais são os equipamentos necessários, até o modelo de licitação (pregão eletrônico) para que outros entes públicos busquem a digitalização de seus processos e a consequente licitação para a certificação digital são os desafios deste artigo.

Depleting the curriculum: teaching digital platforms and curricular impoverishment

The paper aims at showing how curricular complexity tends to be depleted by the use of digital platforms based on the SCORM (Sharable Content Object Reference Model) standard, which was created with the main purpose of recycling content as it is supposed to be independent both from the context of learning and the supporting technology also deemed to be neutral, all surrounded by a rhetoric of innovation and “pedagogical” innovation. The starting point of the discussion is García Perez’s model of Traditional Didactics as a simple tool to show almost graphically that any ancient didactic model is far richer in terms of complexity than the linearity, in disguise most of the times but still visible under a not so sophisticated critical lens, of the interaction human-(reusable) content that is the basis of the SCORM standard. The paper also addresses some of the more common deliberate mix-ups related to those digital platforms, such as learning and teaching, content and learning object, systems of automatic teaching and learning management systems.

Robótica e educação: uma possibilidade de inserção sócio-digital

This paper presents a reflection on the use of robotics in education technology and the fostering of social and digital inclusion, unveiling a new field that has been outlined today. Robotics constitutes a tool still little known and not regulated at national level in education, there is little experience involving the tool in the Northeast. This research aims to reveal one of the first experiments with educational level robotics in Rio Grande do Norte. We present a field research conducted in a public school chancellor for a major institute of science and technology education of the state from seeking review of the robotics course, understand how they work and show their use in school and shows that contributions were generated for digital inclusion category students, based on speeches by teachers, engineers, management and students. As part of gathering information, we used the focus group technique, applied in two stages, one with groups of students, teachers and other school administration, as well as comments directed to the times when the robotics course was being finalized. As a result, we found that the school, through the robotics course is a provider of social and digital inclusion, since it awakens in the sample of students in this research knowledge enabler of social change. And that despite the student category do not understand the depth of meaning of inclusion, the same report in daily actions that integrate technology into their social context in harmony, enjoying its cultural citizenship in full

Classificação numérica e modelo digital de elevação na caracterização espacial de atributos dos solos

One of needs of modern agriculture is the prediction of spatial variability of soil properties at more detailed scales for sustainable management and optimization of management practices. The mathematical model associated with knowledge of variability of soil attributes and mapping of relief forms has helped in agricultural planning. In this regard the aim of this study was to characterize the spatial variability of physical and chemical properties of Oxisols and Ultisols using numerical classification and the digital elevation model. Two distinct landforms: convex for the Oxisol (158 ha) and linear for the Ultisol (172 ha). 53 samples from the Oxisol and 57 samples from the Ultisol were taken. Multivariate analysis of clusters of attributes studied from their euclidean distances was performed. This analysis by dendograms along with digital elevation models for different soils characterized was more homogeneous in Ultisol groups, and less homogeneous for the Oxisol in convex landform. These quantitative methods showed that the landforms conditioned the spatial pattern of soil attributes.

GIS_EM (Geographic information system for environmental monitoring) - A software implemented at Paulínia refinery (REPLAN) for management of environmental data

The computational program called GIS_EM (Geographic Information System for Environmental Monitoring), a software devised to manage geographic information for monitoring soil, surface, and ground water, developed for use in the Health, Safety, and Environment Division of Paulinia Refinery is presented. This program enables registering and management of alphanumeric information pertaining to specific themes such as drilling performed for sample collection and for installation of monitoring wells, geophysical and other tests, results of chemical analyses of soil, surface, and groundwater, as well as reference values providing orientation for soil and water quality, such as EPA, Dutch List, etc. Management of such themes is performed by means of alphanumeric search tools, with specific filters and, in the case of spatial search, through the selection of spatial elements (themes) in map view. Documents existing in digital form, such as reports, photos, maps, may be registered and managed in the network environment. As the system centralizes information generated upon environmental investigations, it expedites access to and search of documents produced and stored in the network environment, minimizing search time and the need to file printed documents. This is an abstract of a paper presented at the AIChE Annual Meeting and Fall Showcase (Cincinnati, OH 10/30/2005-11/4/2005).

Identificação e priorização dos fatores críticos de sucesso na implantação de fábrica digital

A Digital Factory is a concept which improves the collaboration among product development processes. Despite the benefits brought by this concept, failures may occur in its implementation. This paper aims to present the Critical Success Factors in the implementation of a Digital Factory project in a Brazilian company. These factors were identified by an exploratory survey on the implementation of Enterprise Resource Planning and Product Lifecycle Management among other systems. Following this identification, the factors were prioritized using the Delphi Method and the Analytic Hierarchy Process; this evaluation was carried out by professionals from enterprises which implement Digital Factory projects, in Brazil and abroad. Nine factors were identified. The five main priorities were: Continuous Support and Commitment from Top Management; Comprehensive Business Reengineering; Skilled and Experienced Partners; Participation and Commitment of Users; and Appropriate Role of the Project Manager.

Speech therapy intervention before dental management in patients with special needs: A case report

Fragile X syndrome is a cytogenetic abnormality related to chromosomal X. This syndrome is frequently associated to intellectual disability, psychological problems, as well as heart, skeletal and join alterations. Intraoral anomalies include malloclusion, ogival palate, cleft palate, presence of mesiodens, dental hypomineralization and abrasion of the occlusal surfaces and incisai edges. The study of characteristics of this syndrome is important for the dentist in order to guide dental treatment and prevention. The aim of this study is to present a myofunctional therapy protocol, evaluated by surface electromyography. A case of a 21 year-old young man who attended the Training Program in Dentistry for Persons with Disabilities, School of Dentistry of São José dos Campos/UNESP is reported. He underwent myofunctional therapy before dental treatment and the masticatory muscles were evaluated by surface electromyography. The exercises of myofunctional therapy consisted of active and passive simple movements of opening and closing the mouth, tongue protrusion and retrusion, digital manipulation and also by using an electric massager on intraoral and perioral region of the masseter, buccinator and orbicularis oris. Action potentials of the masticatory muscles decreased in almost all the muscles and values for the bite force and mandibular opening capacity increased. This study showed that brief and immediate myofunctional therapy optimized clinical practice with positive repercussion on dental care.

Delineation of specific management areas for coffee cultivation based on the soil-relief relationship and numerical classification

Predicting and mapping productivity areas allows crop producers to improve their planning of agricultural activities. The primary aims of this work were the identification and mapping of specific management areas allowing coffee bean quality to be predicted from soil attributes and their relationships to relief. The study area was located in the Southeast of the Minas Gerais state, Brazil. A grid containing a total of 145 uniformly spaced nodes 50 m apart was established over an area of 31. 7 ha from which samples were collected at depths of 0. 00-0. 20 m in order to determine physical and chemical attributes of the soil. These data were analysed in conjunction with plant attributes including production, proportion of beans retained by different sieves and drink quality. The results of principal component analysis (PCA) in combination with geostatistical data showed the attributes clay content and available iron to be the best choices for identifying four crop production environments. Environment A, which exhibited high clay and available iron contents, and low pH and base saturation, was that providing the highest yield (30. 4l ha-1) and best coffee beverage quality (61 sacks ha-1). Based on the results, we believe that multivariate analysis, geostatistics and the soil-relief relationships contained in the digital elevation model (DEM) can be effectively used in combination for the hybrid mapping of areas of varying suitability for coffee production. © 2012 Springer Science+Business Media New York.
