Planejamento e gestão estratégicos na administração pública municipal no Brasil

Apesar de sua complementariedade, as práticas de planejamento estratégico e de busca pela qualidade do serviço e da gestão pública tem recebido ênfase alternada ao longo da história política brasileira, acompanhando percepções acerca do papel do Estado. Na administração municipal adquirem especial relevância e complexidade dado histórico de expansão urbana pouco planejada, grande concentração populacional nessas áreas e necessidade de integração de uma série de instrumentos e diretrizes propostos pela Constituição de 1988 e pelo Estatuto da Cidade. O presente trabalho visa sistematizar o histórico desses debates no Brasil, sem pretensão de aprofundamento, e apresentar breves contribuições sobre a situação atual do planejamento e gestão nos municípios.

Sistemas de gestão para resultados no setor público: intersecções entre política, governança e desempenho nas prefeituras de Rio de Janeiro e São Paulo

A gestão para resultados (GpR) tem adquirido importância crescente nos municípios brasileiros, assumindo diferentes funções no interior das organizações públicas. No entanto, implementação de sistemas de GpR no setor público pode vir acompanhada de novos problemas oriundos da complexidade da mensuração de resultados em ambientes expostos ao escrutínio social e político. Nesse contexto, o objetivo deste trabalho é analisar de forma crítica os sistemas de GpR implantados nas prefeituras de Rio de Janeiro e São Paulo, visando a estabelecer, com base na teoria, conexões entre as diferentes funções exercidas pelos sistemas de GpR e as disfunções vivenciadas pelos gestores públicos no cotidiano. Para tanto, foram mapeadas, com base na teoria, as diferentes funções desempenhadas pelos sistemas de GpR e separadas em três macrocategorias: desempenho, governança e política. A partir dessa categorização, foram delimitadas as possíveis disfunções da GpR relacionadas com as intersecções dessas diferentes macrocategorias. Com base nas categorias teóricas estabelecidas, foram coletados dados sobre a GpR nas duas prefeituras, com destaque para a entrevista de 12 gestores e 3 representantes da sociedade civil. Os achados de pesquisa permitiram demonstrar que a Prefeitura do Rio de Janeiro implementou um sistema de GpR voltado principalmente para a melhoria do desempenho, ao passo que São Paulo focou nas funções relacionadas à macrocategoria da governança. Em relação às disfunções, o Rio de Janeiro apresentou indícios de definição tecnocrátia das metas e gaming interno, ao passo que a Prefeitura de São Paulo esteve marcada por gaming externo, miopia e lock-in. Os resultados permitiram identificar ainda outras variáveis relevantes para o estudo das disfunções da GpR, como a cultura política, o envolvimento do prefeito no sistema, a entrada na agenda do tema da GpR, o grau de institucionalização do sistema de GpR. Os resultados demonstram que as diferentes funções assumidas por esses sistemas estão correlacionadas com as disfunções. O capítulo final explora essas possibilidades de correlações.

Comparação de sistemas de programação

Este trabalho compara as soluções disponibilizadas pelos sistemas Derive 5.0, Maple 6 e Mathematica 4.0 para problemas que encontramos no ensino secundário e também nos primeiros anos da universidade. Procuramos destacar os aspectos distintos entre cada um dos programas ao mesmo tempo que fazemos referência aos pontos em que tudo se passa de forma semelhante. Esta dissertação aborda o cálculo numérico, o cálculo simbólico, a programação e os gráficos. Para cada um dos assuntos é estudada a forma como se podem resolver os problemas através dos três sistemas comparando-se estas soluções. Inicialmente, é feita uma abordagem que permite ao utilizador adquirir os conhecimentos básicos acerca dos diversos programas. Tratamos de seguida de algumas questões relacionadas com o cálculo numérico e com algumas funções nomeadamente da Teoria dos Números. Referimos listas e funções e são analisadas diversas formas de manipular listas e os seus elementos bem como algumas áreas da Análise Matemática das quais destacamos as equações, a derivação e a integração compreendendo cálculo numérico e cálculo simbólico. Examinamos um vasto conjunto de operações definidas sobre matrizes (representadas como listas de listas) e polinómios que abrangem as operações mais comuns de cada um dos campos. Analisamos também a programação recursiva, a programação imperativa, a programação funcional e a programação por regras de reescrita. A abordagem aqui adoptada foi a de fornecer ao utilizador as construções chave mais importantes que cada paradigma de programação utiliza bem como as informações básicas acerca do funcionamento de cada uma delas de modo a permitir a resolução dos problemas propostos. Por último os gráficos sobre os quais incidiu a nossa análise foram os de uma e de duas variáveis representados no referencial cartesiano, gráficos estes que são os mais utilizados quer ao nível do ensino superior quer ao nível do ensino secundário. A qualidade e a facilidade de obter rapidamente as representações dão outra dimensão ao estudo dos gráficos principalmente quando estamos a falar de gráficos a três dimensões. A ideia de animação gráfica é também aqui abordada sendo evidente os benefícios da utilização da mesma nos programas em que é possível efectuá-la. Concluímos que na programação o Mathematica destaca-se em relação aos demais o mesmo se passando no Maple no respeitante à representação gráfica. O Derive permite que durante o contacto inicial seja mais fácil trabalhar e aprender a linguagem própria.

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.

Construção das capacidades organizacionais de tecnologia da informação no contexto dos sistemas institucionais integrados de gestão da UFRN

The IT capability is a organizational ability to perform activities of this role more effectively and an important mechanism in creating value. Its building process (stages of creation and development) occurs through management initiatives for improvement in the performance of their activities, using human resources and IT assets complementary responsible for the evolution of their organizational routines. This research deals with the IT capabilities related to SIG (integrated institutional management systems), built and deployed in UFRN (Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte) to realization and control of administrative, academic and human resources activities. Since 2009, through cooperative agreements with federal and educational institutions of direct administration, UFRN has supported the implementation of these systems, currently involving more than 30 institutions. The present study aims to understand how IT capabilities, relevant in the design, implementation and dissemination of SIG, were built over time. This is a single case study of qualitative and longitudinal nature, performed by capturing, coding and analysis from secondary data and from semi-structured interviews conducted primarily with members of Superintenência de Informática, organizational unit responsible for SIG systems in UFRN. As a result, the technical, of internal relationship and external cooperation capabilities were identified as relevant in the successful trajectory of SIG systems, which have evolved in different ways. The technical capacity, initiated in 2004, toured the stages of creation and development until it reached the stage of stability in 2013, due to technological limits. Regarding the internal relationship capability, begun in 2006, it toured the stages of creation and development, having extended its scope of activities in 2009, being in development since then. Unlike the standard life cycle observed in the literature, the external cooperation capability was initiated by an intensity of initiatives and developments in the routines in 2009, which were decreasing to cease in 2013 in order to stabilize the technological infrastructure already created for cooperative institutions. It was still identified the start of cooperation in 2009 as an important event selection, responsible for changing or creating trajectories of evolution in all three capacities. The most frequent improvements initiatives were of organizational nature and the internal planning activity has been transformed over the routines of the three capabilities. Important resources and complementary assets have been identified as important for the realization of initiatives, such as human resources technical knowledge to the technical capabilities and external cooperation, and business knowledge, for all of them, as well as IT assets: the iproject application for control of development processes, and the document repository wiki. All these resources and complementary assets grew along the capacities, demonstrating its strategic value to SINFO/UFRN

Sistemas de gerenciamento de bibliotecas: riscos decorrentes do processo de migração de dados

This work aims to analyze risks related to information technology (IT) in procedures related to data migration. This is done considering ALEPH, Integrated Libray System (ILS) that migrated data to the Library Module present in the software called Sistema Integrado de Gestão de Atividades Acadêmicas (SIGAA) at the Zila Mamede Central Library at the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte (UFRN) in Natal/Brazil. The methodological procedure used was of a qualitative exploratory research with the realization of case study at the referred library in order to better understand this phenomenon. Data collection was able once there was use of a semi-structured interview that was applied with (11) subjects that are employed at the library as well as in the Technology Superintendence at UFRN. In order to examine data Content analysis as well as thematic review process was performed. After data migration the results of the interview were then linked to both analysis units and their system register with category correspondence. The main risks detected were: data destruction; data loss; data bank communication failure; user response delay; data inconsistency and duplicity. These elements point out implication and generate disorders that affect external and internal system users and lead to stress, work duplicity and hassles. Thus, some measures were taken related to risk management such as adequate planning, central management support, and pilot test simulations. For the advantages it has reduced of: risk, occurrence of problems and possible unforeseen costs, and allows achieving organizational objectives, among other. It is inferred therefore that the risks present in data bank conversion in libraries exist and some are predictable, however, it is seen that librarians do not know or ignore and are not very worried in the identification risks in data bank conversion, their acknowledge would minimize or even extinguish them. Another important aspect to consider is the existence of few empirical research that deal specifically with this subject and thus presenting the new of new approaches in order to promote better understanding of the matter in the corporate environment of the information units

Outorga onerosa do direito de construir e dinâmica do mercado imobiliário formal: planejamento e descaminhos na expansão urbana de Parnamirim RN (2008-2010)

The `Outorga Onerosa do Direito de Construir - OODC` (Public Concession of Building Rights), instrument instituted by The City Statute in 2001, has as main objective the recovery of urban property, seeking for a fair distribution the urbanization benefits. The possibility of usage of the OODC instrument is linked to the maximum utilization coefficient, determined to specific areas in accordance to existing infrastructure conditions, further taking into account the formal real estate market, expansion axis and crowding. Being an instrument which establishes values to be paid for a better use of land, it maintains a narrow relation to the real estate, incentivizing or discouraging the crowding in specific areas. The present study investigates the relationship between the criteria for the making of the Public Concession of Building Rights instrument and the dynamics of the formal real estate market. It takes as empiric universe Parnamirim (RN), part of the Natal Metropolitan Area (RN), focusing on the application of the OODC in the period of 2008-2010. It seeks to better understand the necessary basis for the formulation of the instrument, about how it works and its relation to the formal real estate market. It aims to depict the formal real estate market by presenting the production of urban space in Parnamirim in terms of intensity and nature of the real estate, furthermore identifying the licensed properties through the application of the municipality instrument. For the conclusion, it is discussed the criteria for the formation of OODC, its relationship to the dynamics of the formal real estate market and its influencing possibilities in the processes of usage and occupation of land in the context of urban planning

Comunidades tradicionais em áreas protegidas: convergências e lacunas da Política Urbana e Ambiental na Reserva de Desenvolvimento Sustentável Estadual Ponta do Tubarão/RN

This work presents a reflection on possibilities and boundaries of consolidation and expansion of human settlements characterized as traditional communities that are located within protected areas, using as study reference the State Sustainable Development Reserve Ponta do Tubarão, at Rio Grande do Norte state. The main topics highlight the conflict between the right to housing and the prevalence of fundamental rights of traditional populations, opposed to the diffuse right to environment, according to the regulatory framework of the Brazilian Urban and Environmental Policies. At the same time that these settlements, historically built, are substantiated by the principles of recognition of rights to traditional populations, they are in a condition of complexity to the resolution of conflicts in its urban dimension and lead to an impairment of natural sites. This work questions how the instruments of land use and occupation are defined and relate to environmental planning, especially considering that the settlements are located in Permanent Preservation Areas (APP). It aims to further the discussion of the urban dimension in settlements, characterizing its formation and growth process, to identify the gaps and convergences between the Urban and Environmental Policy, under the foundations of a socio-environmental approach. The results spotlights the conflicts between occupation and natural areas, inferring that the definition of Urban Policies instruments and its integration with Environmental Policies instruments account for essential and priority actions to the achievement to the rights to a sustainable city, as determined in the Cities Statute and environmental protection goals, defined for the Conservation Units

Avaliação da ecotoxicidade de percolados em áreas de disposição de resíduos na região metropolitana de Natal/RN

Leachates are effluent produced by decomposition of solid waste, they have complex composition and can be highly toxic. Therefore such percolated liquid should be collected and treated properly to avoid environmental contamination of soil and of water bodies. The objective of this study was to evaluate the toxicity through ecotoxicological tests with Ceriodaphnia dubia (Cladocera - Crustacea) of percolated liquids generated in two different systems of municipal solid waste (MSW) disposal in the city of Natal/ RN: A Sanitary Landfill in the Metropolitan Region of Natal/ RN, and in a dump off area. Furthermore, it was evaluated the possible contamination of the underground water of the dump off area. Two monthly samples were taken at four points between the months of May/2009 and January/2010. The Point "A" corresponds to the end of the pond leachate treatment in ASRMN; The Point "B" corresponds to a containment pond at the dump. The Point "C" is an area near one of the cells of the dump off area where the leachate outcrops; The Point "D" stands for an underground water well at the area. The last point, called "E" was sampled only once and corresponds to the slurry produced by temporary accumulation of solid waste in the open area of the dump. The ecotoxicological tests, acute and chronic, followed the ABNT 13373/2005 rules, with some modifications. The samples were characterized by measuring the pH number, the dissolved oxygen (DO), the salinity, BOD5, COD, Cd, Cu, Pb, Cr, Fe, Mg, Ni, and Zn. At Point A, the average number of EC50-48h ranged between 1.0% and 2.77% (v/v), showing a high toxicity of the leachate to C.dubia in all months. To this point, positive correlations were found between the EC50- 48 with precipitation. Negative correlations were found between the EC50- 48h with salinity. At point B there was no response of the acute exposure of organisms to the test samples. At point C the EC50-48h ranged from 17.68% to 35.36% in just two months of the five ones analyzed, not correlated meaning. Point D, the EC50-48h level ranged between 12.31% and 71.27%, showed a negative correlation with, only, precipitation. Although it was observed toxicity of underground water in the Landfill Area, there was no evidence of water contamination by leachate, however, due to the toxic character of this water, additional tests should be conducted to confirm the quality of water that is used for human supply. At point E there was no acute toxicity. These results support the dangers of inappropriate disposal of MSW to water bodies due to the high toxicity of the leachate produced highlighting the necessity of places of safe confinement and a treatment system more effective to it

Síntese e caracterização do poli(ácido láctico) para potencial uso em sistemas de liberação controlada de fármacos

With the advances in medicine, life expectancy of the world population has grown considerably in recent decades. Studies have been performed in order to maintain the quality of life through the development of new drugs and new surgical procedures. Biomaterials is an example of the researches to improve quality of life, and its use goes from the reconstruction of tissues and organs affected by diseases or other types of failure, to use in drug delivery system able to prolong the drug in the body and increase its bioavailability. Biopolymers are a class of biomaterials widely targeted by researchers since they have ideal properties for biomedical applications, such as high biocompatibility and biodegradability. Poly (lactic acid) (PLA) is a biopolymer used as a biomaterial and its monomer, lactic acid, is eliminated by the Krebs Cycle (citric acid cycle). It is possible to synthesize PLA through various synthesis routes, however, the direct polycondensation is cheaper due the use of few steps of polymerization. In this work we used experimental design (DOE) to produce PLAs with different molecular weight from the direct polycondensation of lactic acid, with characteristics suitable for use in drug delivery system (DDS). Through the experimental design it was noted that the time of esterification, in the direct polycondensation, is the most important stage to obtain a higher molecular weight. The Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectrograms obtained were equivalent to the PLAs available in the literature. Results of Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) showed that all PLAs produced are semicrystalline with glass transition temperatures (Tgs) ranging between 36 - 48 °C, and melting temperatures (Tm) ranging from 117 to 130 °C. The PLAs molecular weight characterized from Size Exclusion Chromatography (SEC), varied from 1000 to 11,000 g/mol. PLAs obtained showed a fibrous morphology characterized by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM)

Sistemas de medição de desempenho para projetos de PD&I no Setor de Petróleo e Gás Natural

Organizations are seeking new ideas, tools and methods aiming to improve management process and performance. On the other hand, system performance measurement needs to portray organizational changes and provide managers with a set of true and more appropriate information for the decision-making process. This work aims to propose a performance measurement system in the academic field regarding Research, Development and Innovation (RDI) in the oil and gas industry. The research performed a bibliographic review in a descriptive exploratory manner. A field research was conducted with an expert focus group in order to gather new indicators. As for the validation of these indicators, a survey with experienced professional was also realized. The research surveyed four segments in and outside of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte-Brazil such as oil and gas project coordinators, staff at Academic Planning Offices, FUNPEC employees as well as coordinators from Petrobrás. The performance measuring system created from this study features three interrelated performance indicators pointed out as: process indicators, outcome indicators and global indicators. The proposal includes performance indicators that seek to establish more appropriate strategies for effective institution management. It might help policy making of university-industry interaction policies
