Andalusian Health Repository: Promoting the scientific health output among professionals and providing citizens with quality health information

The Andalusian Public Health System (Sistema Sanitario Público de Andalucía -SSPA) Repository is the open environment where all the scientific output generated by the SSPA professionals, resulting from their medical care, research and administrative activities, is comprehensively collected and managed. This repository possesses special features which determined its development: the SSPA organization and its purpose as a health institution, the specific sets of documents that it generates and the stakeholders involved in it. The repository uses DSpace 1.6.2, to which several changes were implemented in order to achieve the SSPA initial goals and requirements. The main changes were: the addition of specific qualifiers to the Metadata Dublin Core scheme, the modification of the submission form, the integration of the MeSH Thesaurus as controlled vocabulary and the optimization of the advanced search tool. Another key point during the setting up of the repository was the initial batch ingest of the documents.

Projecte de software per a la gestió d'entitats culturals

Aquest projecte es basa en la necessitat d’un grup d’entitats culturals de Blanes de tenir un software de gestió integral d’entitats que faciliti el seu funcionament diari. Siguin un esbart, una colla castellera o una coral, generen unes dades molt semblants que permeten dissenyar unes eines genèriques que totes elles poden utilitzar. El software desenvolupat permetrà gestionar les següents dades: socis, actuacions, repertori, participants i galeries d’imatges

Variability of ascending aorta diameter measurements as assessed with electrocardiography-gated multidetector computerized tomography and computer assisted diagnosis software.

Recently, morphometric measurements of the ascending aorta have been done with ECG-gated multidector computerized tomography (MDCT) to help the development of future novel transcatheter therapies (TCT); nevertheless, the variability of such measurements remains unknown. Thirty patients referred for ECG-gated CT thoracic angiography were evaluated. Continuous reformations of the ascending aorta, perpendicular to the centerline, were obtained automatically with a commercially available computer aided diagnosis (CAD). Then measurements of the maximal diameter were done with the CAD and manually by two observers (separately). Measurements were repeated one month later. The Bland-Altman method, Spearman coefficients, and a Wilcoxon signed-rank test were used to evaluate the variability, the correlation, and the differences between observers. The interobserver variability for maximal diameter between the two observers was up to 1.2 mm with limits of agreement [-1.5, +0.9] mm; whereas the intraobserver limits were [-1.2, +1.0] mm for the first observer and [-0.8, +0.8] mm for the second observer. The intraobserver CAD variability was 0.8 mm. The correlation was good between observers and the CAD (0.980-0.986); however, significant differences do exist (P<0.001). The maximum variability observed was 1.2 mm and should be considered in reports of measurements of the ascending aorta. The CAD is as reproducible as an experienced reader.

Open source software expectations in retail businesses of Igualada : an exploratory study

The emergence of open source software in the last years has become a common topic of study in different fields, from the most technical characteristics to the economical aspects. This paper examines the current status about the literature dealing with economics of open source and explores the uses, infrastructure and expectations of retail businesses and institutions of the town of Igualda about it. This qualitative case study finds out that the current equipment and level of uses of ICTs are low and that the current situation of the town stores is receptive to a potential introduction of open source software.

Using free data mining software and clustering algorithms to find predictors from student qualifications

In this project a research both in finding predictors via clustering techniques and in reviewing the Data Mining free software is achieved. The research is based in a case of study, from where additionally to the KDD free software used by the scientific community; a new free tool for pre-processing the data is presented. The predictors are intended for the e-learning domain as the data from where these predictors have to be inferred are student qualifications from different e-learning environments. Through our case of study not only clustering algorithms are tested but also additional goals are proposed.

Búsqueda, selección e implantación de un sistema online de software libre para revisión por pares en congresos científicos

Este proyecto tiene como objetivo implementar un sistema libre bajo GNU/Linux para la recepción y evaluación de trabajos presentados a un congreso argentino sobre sistemas embebidos. Además, se piensa en un futuro en organizar un evento de software libre con revisión de pares, para lo cual sería coherente utilizar un sistema con licencia de software libre.

AUVReport : Software de control y generación de informes para Vehículos Autónoos Submarinos

Desarrollo de software para el control de calidad y la generación automatizada de informes técnicos sobre ficheros de estado generados por AUV (vehículos autónomos submarinos).

ERP vs software de gestió a entorns complexos de producció

L'objectiu principal de l'estudi és fer una avaluació d'una possible introducció a l'ERP d'un entorn complex de producció com pot ser el món de l'electrònica. Partirem de la hipòtesi que l'empresa vol substituir el software de gestió que fa servir actualment, i que ha estat desenvolupat internament, per plantejar la possibilitat d'introduir aquest entorn sota l'ERP actual o utilitzar un software de gestió de tercers.

ApplicationMap : Administración web y comercio electrónico en entornos de software libre

Este proyecto tiene como objetivo desarrollar las herramientas necesarias para poder crear un mapa conceptual de las aplicaciones de una organización, representar gráficamente este mapa y controlar el estado de cada aplicación. En concreto, se trata de desarrollar un formato XML que permita identificar y describir una aplicación, detallar con qué tecnología está desarrollada, qué componentes utiliza, especificar las interacciones o dependencias con otros sistemas, etc.

JULIDE: a software tool for 3D reconstruction and statistical analysis of autoradiographic mouse brain sections.

In this article we introduce JULIDE, a software toolkit developed to perform the 3D reconstruction, intensity normalization, volume standardization by 3D image registration and voxel-wise statistical analysis of autoradiographs of mouse brain sections. This software tool has been developed in the open-source ITK software framework and is freely available under a GPL license. The article presents the complete image processing chain from raw data acquisition to 3D statistical group analysis. Results of the group comparison in the context of a study on spatial learning are shown as an illustration of the data that can be obtained with this tool.
