Design e gestão de sistemas, robótica, redes e médias interativos

Este relatório pretende ilustrar a experiência profissional obtida, principalmente após a conclusão, em 1998, da Licenciatura em Engenharia de Sistemas e Computadores na Universidade da Madeira. Esta experiência circunscreve-se à proficiência nas áreas de redes de comunicação de dados, automação e robótica e desenvolvimento de média interativos (tanto na vertente de CD-ROMs como orientado à Internet). Embora também disponha de experiência no ensino destas áreas citadas, foram privilegiados os projetos com uma relevância mais técnica atendendo à natureza deste mestrado. Sendo assim, são apresentadas nestas quatro áreas primeiro uma descrição dos projetos realizados no âmbito do percurso profissional, para depois descrever uma implementação (relativa a cada área) utilizando uma metodologia científica que fora alvo de estudo na componente letiva deste mestrado, salientando as virtudes e defeitos de ambas as abordagens e comparando os resultados obtidos. Em síntese, é analisado o projeto de gestão de sistemas de redes das Escolas Secundárias Francisco Franco e Jaime Moniz (no âmbito do desempenho das funções de Diretor das Instalações Informáticas em ambas as instituições) culminando numa proposta de implementação utilizando equipamentos da Cisco; é analisado o projeto de CD-ROM sobre a Reserva Natural das Ilhas Desertas para depois completar um jogo educativo utilizando uma metodologia científica de Game Design; são descritos os websites desenvolvidos (com especial ênfase nos realizados enquanto técnico superior de informática na Secretaria Regional do Ambiente e dos Recursos Naturais) para concluir com uma proposta de implementação de um sistema de marcação de reuniões orientado para a Cloud; finalmente, é descrito a utilização dos kits Lego Mindstorms para o ensino da programação, propondo uma implementação de baixo custo (alternativa) baseada num Raspberry Pi e componentes acessórios (tanto estandardizados como construídos com uma RepRap). Em suma, é contraposto o rigor e método do ensino académico com o pragmatismo e metas de produtividade exigidas no mercado de trabalho.

Fibra de crital fotônico: fundamentação e aplicações

The main purpose of this dissertation, consists of the study and analysis of the PBG (Photonic Band Gap )..tecnology incorporated in optical fiber structures. So, we'l1 present a complete PBG structure theory, and folowing this, we'l1 present also a chapter for convencional optical fiber, due to the need to construct the base theory of them, and latter a more complete work about photonic crystal fiber. Finaly, we'l1 show the results of the signals , dispersion, and obtained curves under the right dimensions according to the required signals, for convencional optical and photonic crystal fiber. Knowing that PBG crystals with low losses act as perfect mirrors for forbidden frequences and knowing that the persence of structures of PBG as substrates, brings some desirable characteristics such as spontaneous emition supression and superficial waves. We' 11 show according to these characteristics its applications in telecomunication. Therefore, the enphasis of this work is to show that the optical fibers are the only practible thing to integrate the enormous quantity of data and video at intemet' s market, developing, manipulating, changing, and multiplexing the optical fibers chanels in an area where we expect that the photonic crystals has an important hole, since the photonic crystals can be projected and made to avoid losses in the bands of certain wavelength which permits the increase in efficiency ofthe optical components projected with crystals. A sequence of this work would be the utilisation of the PBG structures in the new system of optical network without fiber developed by Bell laboratories of the lucent tecnology, last year using light rays for transmiting information through the air. The new system of optical networks without fiber will permit sending the data of 15 cd-rooms in less then one second, what represents 65 times more information than those transmitted through the actual radio frequences

International Collection of JGOFS (Joint Global Ocean Flux Study), Volume 2: Integrated Data Sets (1989-2003)

The JGOFS International Collection Volume 2: Integrated Data Sets CD is a coherent, organised compilation of existing data sets produced by member countries which participated in JGOFS. In most cases, the data were gathered from the JGOFS International Collection, Volume 1: Discrete Datasets DVD. To produce Vol. 1 data were taken from the original sources and copied "as is" on the DVD. For Vol. 2 data and metadata have been harmonized using the conversion software PanTool and the import routine of PANGAEA checking for completeness of metadata and defining the relations between data and metadata. Prior to the import, data had performed a technical quality control, i.e. format and readability of the file, availability and combination of parameters and units, range of values.
