O presente documento de dissertação retrata o desenvolvimento do projeto PDS-Portal Institucional cujo cerne é um sistema para recolha, armazenamento e análise de dados (plataforma de Business Intelligence). Este portal está enquadrado na área da saúde e é uma peça fundamental no sistema da Plataforma de dados da Saúde, que é constituído por quatro portais distintos. Esta plataforma tem como base um sistema totalmente centrado no utente, que agrega dados de saúde dos utentes e distribui pelos diversos intervenientes: utente, profissionais de saúde nacionais e internacionais e organizações de saúde. O objetivo principal deste projeto é o desenvolvimento do PDS-Portal Institucional, recorrendo a uma plataforma de Business Intelligence, com o intuito de potenciar os utilizadores de uma ferramenta analítica para análise de dados. Estando a informação armazenada em dois dos portais da Plataforma de dados da Saúde (PDS-Portal Utente e PDS-Portal Profissional), é necessário modular um armazém de dados que agregue a informação de ambos e, através do PDS-PI, distribua um conjunto de análises ao utilizador final. Para tal este sistema comtempla um mecanismo totalmente automatizado para extração, tratamento e carregamento de dados para o armazém central, assim como uma plataforma de BI que disponibiliza os dados armazenados sobre a forma de análises específicas. Esta plataforma permite uma evolução constante e é extremamente flexível, pois fornece um mecanismo de gestão de utilizadores e perfis, assim como capacita o utilizador de um ambiente Web para análise de dados, permitindo a partilha e acesso a partir de dispositivos móveis. Após a implementação deste sistema foi possível explorar os dados e tirar diversas conclusões que são de extrema importância tanto para a evolução da PDS como para os métodos de praticar os cuidados de saúde em Portugal. Por fim são identificados alguns pontos de melhoria do sistema atual e delineada uma perspetiva de evolução futura. É certo que a partir do momento que este projeto seja lançado para produção, novas oportunidades surgirão e o contributo dos utilizadores será útil para evoluir o sistema progressivamente.

The goal of this EPS@ISEP project proposed in the Spring of 2014 was to develop a flapping wing flying robot. The project was embraced by a multinational team composed of four students from different countries and fields of study. The team designed and implemented a robot inspired by a biplane design, constructed from lightweight materials and battery powered. The prototype, called MyBird, was built with a 250 € budget, reuse existing materials as well as low cost solutions. Although the team's initial idea was to build a light radio controlled robot, time limitations along with setbacks involving the required electrical components led to a light but not radio controlled prototype. The team, from the experience gathered, made a number of future improvement suggestions, namely, the addition of radio control and a camera and the adoption of articulated monoplane design instead of the current biplane design for the wings.

This paper presents the development of a fish-like robot called Bro-Fish. Bro-Fish aims to be an educational toy dedicated to teaching mechanics, programming and the physics of floating objects to youngsters. The underlying intention is to awaken the interest of children for technology, especially biomimetic (biologically inspired) approaches, in order to promote sustainability and raise the level of ecological awareness. The main focus of this project was to create a robot with carangiform locomotion and controllable swimming, providing the opportunity to customize parts and experiment with the physics of floating objects. Therefore, the locomotion principles of fishes and mechanisms developed in related projects were analysed. Inspired by this background knowledge, a prototype was designed and implemented. The main achievement is the new tail mechanism that propels the robot. The tail resembles the undulation motion of fish bodies and is actuated in an innovative way, triggered by an elegant movement of a rotating helicoidal. First experimental tests revealed the potential of the proposed methodology to effectively generate forward propulsion.

Three different treatments were applied on several specimens of dolomitic and calcitic marble, properly stained with rust to mimic real situations (the stone specimens were exposed to the natural environment for about six months in contact with rusted iron). Thirty six marble specimens, eighteen calcitic and eighteen dolomitic, were characterized before and after treatment and monitored throughout the cleaning tests. The specimens were characterized by SEM-EDS (Scanning Electron Microscopy coupled with Energy Dispersion System), XRD (XRay Diffraction), XRF (X-Ray Fluorescence), FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy) and color measurements. It was also made a microscopic and macroscopic analysis of the stone surface along with the tests of short and long term capillary absorption. A series of test trials were conducted in order to understand which concentrations and contact times best suits to this purpose, to confirm what had been written to date in the literature. We sought to develop new methods of treatment application, skipping the usual methods of applying chemical treatments on stone substrates, with the use of cellulose poultice, resorting to the agar, a gel already used in many other areas, being something new in this area, which possesses great applicability in the field of conservation of stone materials. After the application of the best methodology for cleaning, specimens were characterized again in order to understand which treatment was more effective and less harmful, both for the operator and the stone material. Very briefly conclusions were that for a very intense and deep penetration into the stone, a solution of 3.5% of SDT buffered with ammonium carbonate to pH around 7 applied with agar support would be indicated. For rust stains in its initial state, the use of Ammonium citrate at a concentration of 5% buffered with ammonium to pH 7 could be applied more than once until satisfactory results appear.

The present Working Project aims at studying the topic of assurance mapping in a specific organizational context of a Portuguese retail company. For this purpose, an assurance map framework was designed to support the decision making process of stakeholders, through the delivery of comfort concerning risks, operations and control. In the end, the framework was successfully implemented for the process sourcing of goods in two business units of the company. Although, further implementation of the framework proved not to be feasible during the project’s timespan, it is expected to occur in the near future.

Són molts els estudis que avui en dia incideixen en la necessitat d’oferir un suport metodològic i psicològic als aprenents que treballen de manera autònoma. L’objectiu d’aquest suport és ajudar-los a desenvolupar les destreses que necessiten per dirigir el seu aprenentatge així com una actitud positiva i una major conscienciació envers aquest aprenentatge. En definitiva, aquests dos tipus de preparació es consideren essencials per ajudar els aprenents a esdevenir més autònoms i més eficients en el seu propi aprenentatge. Malgrat això, si bé és freqüent trobar estudis que exemplifiquen aplicacions del suport metodològic dins els seus programes, principalment en la formació d’estratègies o ajudant els aprenents a desenvolupar un pla de treball, aquest no és el cas quan es tracta de la seva preparació psicològica. Amb rares excepcions, trobem estudis que documentin com s’incideix en les actituds i en les creences dels aprenents, també coneguts com a coneixement metacognitiu (CM), en programes que fomenten l’autonomia en l’aprenentatge. Els objectius d’aquest treball son dos: a) oferir una revisió d’estudis que han utilitzat diferents mitjans per incidir en el CM dels aprenents i b) descriure les febleses i avantatges dels procediments i instruments que utilitzen, tal com han estat valorats en estudis de recerca, ja que ens permetrà establir criteris objectius sobre com i quan utilitzar-los en programes que fomentin l’aprenentatge autodirigit.

The objective of this paper is to analyse to what extent the use of cross-section data will distort the estimated elasticities for car ownership demand when the observed variables do not correspond to a state equilibrium for some individuals in the sample. Our proposal consists of approximating the equilibrium values of the observed variables by constructing a pseudo-panel data set which entails averaging individuals observed at different points of time into cohorts. The results show that individual and aggregate data lead to almost the same value for income elasticity, whereas with respect to working adult elasticity the similarity is less pronounced.

Aquest projecte consisteix en fer l’anàlisi, disseny i implementació d'un sistema d'autenticació a través de contrasenyes d’un sol ús (One Time Password ‐OTP‐) per a dispositius mòbils. Per evitar l’ús de contrasenyes estàtiques farem una aplicació per a telèfons mòbils capaç de generar contrasenyes aleatòries gràcies a uns paràmetres previs, així com de poder tenir un registre dels serveis on poden ser utilitzades. Partirem d’un protocol repte/resposta on l’usuari interactuarà amb el seu telèfon mòbil i un ordinador personal amb una connexió a Internet. Podrà registrar‐se i, introduint certes dades al mòbil que li proporciona el servidor, podrà fer el procés d’autenticar‐se per poder accedir a zones restringides del servei.
