Regionalização e gestão no espaço turístico: o processo de roteirização e de gestão participativa do Pólo Marajó, Pará

O presente trabalho analisa no contexto da regionalização e gestão no espaço turístico, dois processos inerentes ao Programa de Regionalização do Turismo (PRT), a roteirização e a gestão participativa, tendo como lócus de pesquisa o pólo Marajó. O texto procura evidenciar os fundamentos teóricos do espaço turístico, a partir do pensamento de BOULLÓN (1985), associando esta abordagem com as formulações contidas na teoria dos pólos de crescimento (PERROUX, 1967), no aménagement du territoire (ANDRADE, 1971, 1987), na teoria da inovação (PORTER, 1998) e na desenvolvimento local (Almeida, 2002, Barqueiro, 2001, Buarque, 2002, Rodrigues, 1977). Analisa-se as políticas públicas nacionais recentes, o Programa Nacional de Municipalização do Turismo (PNMT), o PRT, além do Plano de Desenvolvimento Turístico do Estado do Pará, identificando a orientação desses documentos técnicos quanto ao processo de desenvolvimento do turismo. Para que fossem alcançados os objetivos propostos foram formuladas questões orientadoras da análise do objeto de estudo, quanto a Roteirização e Gestão Participativa. Na seqüência, cumpriu-se uma etapa de pesquisa, de caráter bibliográfico e documental, que permitiu a construção do referencial teórico. Complementarmente, realizou-se o trabalho de campo com entrevistas, observações, levantamentos de informações na área em estudo. O resultado desse processo foi sistematizado, a partir da interpretação das informações obtidas no trabalho de gabinete e de campo. Consolidadas estas informações, as mesmas foram organizadas em forma de texto analítico, com o suporte de mapas, fotos, quadro e tabelas. Considerando os dois principais objetivos propostos (análise da roteirização e da gestão participativa no pólo Marajó), observou-se que o trabalho de roteirização na vila do Pesqueiro concentrou-se, basicamente, em dois dos quatro componentes do espaço turístico: a matéria prima e a superestrutura. Os demais componentes (planta turística e infra-estrutura) não receberam atenção adequada. Tais fatos, conjugados a fatores externos ao universo composto pela comunidade local, como a questão do transporte para o Marajó, e a atuação dos agentes de receptivo de Belém - que têm grande influência na comercialização dos roteiros - dificultaram o processo de venda do produto. Quanto a Gestão Participativa , observou-se que foram instituídos dois comitês gestores, um em Soure e outro em Salvaterra, dissociados do processo de constituição do Fórum Regional de Turismo do Pólo Marajó. Além disso, a estrutura do Fórum não obedeceu ao princípio da equidade, em termos de representação dos atores, e a concepção da governança regional do turismo ocorreu após o processo de roteirização do Amazônia do Marajó. Esses elementos indicam que ainda não se pratica, concretamente, uma gestão participativa no pólo Marajó.

Impacto do padrão geométrico ventricular na remodelação cardíaca após o infarto do miocárdio

BACKGROUND: The relevance of left ventricular (LV) geometric pattern after myocardial infarction is not known. OBJECTIVES: To analyze the presence of different LV geometric patterns and teir impact as a predictor of remodeling in patients with myocardial infarction. METHODS: Patients with anterior acute myocardial infarction (n = 80) were divided according to the geometric pattern: normal (normal left ventricular mass index [LVMI] and normal relative wall thickness [RWT]), concentric remodeling (normal LVMI and increased RWT), concentric hypertrophy (increased LVMI and RWT) and eccentric hypertrophy (increased LVMI and normal RWT). After six months, echocardiographic assessment was repeated. RESULTS: Four patients died. Of the survivors, 41 showed remodeling (R +), whereas 39 did not (R-). Considering the geometric pattern, the cases were distributed as follows: 24 patients with normal pattern, 13 with concentric remodeling, 29 with concentric hypertrophy and 14 with eccentric hypertrophy. Patients who showed remodeling had larger infarction sizes analyzed by peak CPK (R + = 4,610 (1,688-7,970), R- = 1,442 (775-4247), p <0.001) and CK-MB (R + = 441 (246 - 666), R- = 183 (101-465), p <0.001), trend towards higher prevalence of concentric remodeling (R+ = 10, R- = 3, p = 0.08) and lower prevalence of eccentric hypertrophy (R + = 2 R- = 12, p = 0.006). In the multivariate regression analysis, infarction size was a predictor (OR = 1.01, p = 0.020) and eccentric hypertrophy was a protective factor (OR = 0.189, p = 0.046) of ventricular remodeling after coronary occlusion. CONCLUSION: The LV geometric pattern of can have an impact on the remodeling process in patients with myocardial infarction.

Gestão de Estoques: análise e melhoria do processo de inventário físico em uma indústria siderúrgica

Accuracy in physical inventory process is essential to develop anefficient inventorycontrol. This ensures the availability of products and ensure that the information contained in the information systems areinaccordancewith the reality of inventories. The inventory management policies of the company aim ofthis study established that all the materials in their inventory must becounted, which is proving a challenge. Therefore, the aim of thiswork is to identify the critical inventories and analyze them, seeking flaws and possible improvements in the inventory count process. For this, we used the tools of quality management, such as Pareto and Cause and Effect Diagrams in an action research. The results show that the stocks of finished products are critical in volume and can be hampered by a lack of training and personnel trained in performing the process, as well as limitations in ERP used. With the actions taken against these problems, we could notice an improvement in the process, because the data collection and processing of data has become easier, besides the occurrence of errors decreased. In addition, there was an acceleration in meeting targets compared to the previous period

Aumento da precisão do controle de estoque: pesquisa ação em indústria de bens de consumo

This work is an action research conducted in an industry of consumer goods, presenting a new model of inventory management in the company's processors. This replacement of the inventory management of the company stemmed from the need to reduce the large number of deviations in the product write off in stock, thereby generating a low accuracy and reliability of data on inventories of processors shown by the company's ERP system. Spending on inventory adjustments could thus be reduced with the implementation of the new model, thus generating a cost savings for the company and thus increasing their competitive potential in the market. In the old system adopted by the company, write off raw material inventory was done automatically by the system for customized transactions by the company. However, since the implementation of ERP in the company, the automatic write off based on historical consumption of each product were made in many cases at random, generating a lot of mistakes. The new management system has replaced the automatic system by manual at the time of the return of the processed product in the company, thus creating a control which lots and quantities were consumed in the processing and making the stock shown by the ERP reliable and accurate

Classificação de workflows baseados em web services

Over the last decades changes have occurred in communication within and between enterprises, made easier by technologies suchas E-commerce, Internet, ERP systems and remote meetings and there was a rapid progress in network technology, which has changed the way business is done. A standardized way to offer services over the internet is using web services. Web services are a kind of remote procedure call and are generally used to integrate systems, independent of language, both client and server. It is common to use several web services run in sequence to perform a business process. To this type of process, gives the name of workflow. Thus, Web services are the primary components of workflows. A tool that provides a way of visualizing the behavior of a workflow can assist the administrator and is required. The present work presents the development of a tool that allows the administrator to classify visually services components and evaluate their importance in the final performance of a workflow. As proof of concept we used several virtual servers and computers where each computer has received a set of web services. A proxy was added between each call of workflows collecting relevant information and storing them in a database for later analysis. The analysis was based on Quality of Service parameters

Modeling architecture and reference models for the ERF5 project

The adoption of ERPs systems by small and middle-sized companies may not be possible due to their cost. At the same time, when adapting ERP to the company's particular needs, the user keeps depending on the system's sellers due to the lack of access and knowledge of the respective code. Free and open-source software may promote advantages to the enterprises, however, for its adoption it is necessary the development of techniques and tools in order to facilitate its deployment and code maintenance. This article emphasizes the importance of defining modeling architectures and reference models for the development and maintenance of open-source ERPs, in special the ERP5 project.

Indicadores-chave de desempenho e a gestão integrada da mineração

The exceptional advance of information technology and computer application to the mineral sector has allowed the automation of several processes of the mineral value chain. ERP systems (Enterprise Resource Planning) provided the platform for the efficient integration of all support activities of the mineral value chain. Despite all advances gathered with the application of computers, it was not possible to date, to effectively integrate the primary activities of the mineral value chain. The main reason for that are the uncertainties present in the productive process, which are intrinsic to the business, and the difficulty to quantify and qualify the benefits obtained with this integration due to the lack of a clear definition of the key performance indicators (KPIs). This work presents an analysis of the ERP systems application in Brazilian mining, identifies the KPIs of some of the most important Brazilian mining companies, and discusses the importance of mapping and measuring these indicators for the effective. management of the mining business.
