The research activities have allowed the analysis of the driver assistance systems, called Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) in relation to road safety. The study is structured according to several evaluation steps, related to definite on-site tests that have been carried out with different samples of users, according to their driving experience with the ACC. The evaluation steps concern: •The testing mode and the choice of suitable instrumentation to detect the driver’s behaviour in relation to the ACC. •The analysis modes and outputs to be obtained, i.e.: - Distribution of attention and inattention; - Mental workload; - The Perception-Reaction Time (PRT), the Time To Collision (TTC) and the Time Headway (TH). The main purpose is to assess the interaction between vehicle drivers and ADAS, highlighting the inattention and variation of the workloads they induce regarding the driving task. The research project considered the use of a system for monitoring visual behavior (ASL Mobile Eye-XG - ME), a powerful GPS that allowed to record the kinematic data of the vehicle (Racelogic Video V-BOX) and a tool for reading brain activity (Electroencephalographic System - EEG). Just during the analytical phase, a second and important research objective was born: the creation of a graphical interface that would allow exceeding the frame count limit, making faster and more effective the labeling of the driver’s points of view. The results show a complete and exhaustive picture of the vehicle-driver interaction. It has been possible to highlight the main sources of criticalities related to the user and the vehicle, in order to concretely reduce the accident rate. In addition, the use of mathematical-computational methodologies for the analysis of experimental data has allowed the optimization and verification of analytical processes with neural networks that have made an effective comparison between the manual and automatic methodology.

The objective of this study was to analyze the point of view of parents in relation to the cochlear implant, their level of information concerning the implant, its risks and benefits, and their expectations towards their children's future. Ten parents of deaf children candidate for the cochlear implant at Unicamp's Clinical Hospital were interviewed. Based on a qualitative approach, a content analysis showed that the majority of parents seek the cure for deafness, and consequently, the acquisition of speech with the cochlear implant. For these families, the cochlear implant is seen both as the solution to their children's deafness and as a path for a better future. It has been evidenced that during the acquisition of knowledge about the implant, parents experienced anxiety and anguish when faced with the risks and benefits of the procedure, and the need to choose between performing and not performing the cochlear implant.

RESUMO - A Segurança do Doente tem assumido uma relevância crescente nas organizações de saúde, resultado da divulgação de diversos estudos que revelaram a magnitude deste problema e simultaneamente, de uma maior pressão por parte da opinião pública e da comunicação social. Este estudo pretende desenvolver e avaliar a performance de um sistema eletrónico de deteção de eventos adversos, baseado num Data Warehouse, por comparação com os resultados obtidos pela metodologia tradicional de revisão dos registos clínicos. O objetivo principal do trabalho consistiu em identificar um conjunto de triggers / indicadores de alerta que permitam detetar potenciais eventos adversos mais comuns. O sistema desenvolvido apresentou um Valor Preditivo Positivo de 18.2%, uma sensibilidade de 65.1% e uma especificidade de 68.6%, sendo constituído por nove indicadores baseados em informação clínica e 445 códigos do ICD-9-CM, relativos a diagnósticos e procedimentos. Apesar de terem algumas limitações, os sistemas eletrónicos de deteção de eventos adversos apresentam inúmeras potencialidades, nomeadamente a utilização em tempo real e em complemento a metodologias já existentes. Considerando a importância da problemática em análise e a necessidade de aprofundar os resultados obtidos neste trabalho de projeto, seria relevante a sua extensão a um universo mais alargado de instituições hospitalares, estando a sua replicabilidade facilitada, uma vez que o Data Warehouse tem por base um conjunto de aplicações disseminadas a nível nacional. O desenvolvimento e a consolidação dos sistemas eletrónicos de deteção de eventos adversos constitui inegavelmente uma área de futuro, com reflexos ao nível da melhoria da informação existente nas organizações e que contribuirá decisivamente para a melhoria dos cuidados de saúde prestados aos doentes.

Political participation is often very low in Switzerland especially among students and young citizens. In the run-up to the Swiss parliamentary election in October 2007 several online tools and campaigns were developed with the aim to increase not only the level of information about the political programs of parties and candidates, but also the electoral participation of younger citizens. From a practical point of view this paper will describe the development, marketing efforts and the distribution as well as the use of two of these tools : the so-called "Parteienkompass" (party compass) and the "myVote"-tool - an online voting assistance tool based on an issue-matching system comparing policy preferences between voters and candidates on an individual level. We also havea look at similar tools stemming from Voting Advice Applications (VAA) in other countries in Western Europe. The paper closes with the results of an evaluation and an outlook to further developments and on-going projects in the near future in Switzerland.

Tietoturva on yksi yrityksen tärkeimpiä turvallisuuteen liittyviä asioita. Tietoturva voidaan jakaa kahdeksaan eri osa-alueeseen: hallinnolliseen turvallisuuteen, henkilöstöturvallisuuteen, tietoaineistoturvallisuuteen, käyttöturvallisuuteen, fyysiseen turvallisuuteen, laitteistoturvallisuuteen, ohjelmistoturvallisuuteen ja tietoliikenneturvallisuuteen. Yrityksen tulisi huomioida jokainen osa-alue, jotta sen tietoturva olisi mahdollisimman hyvä. Jos jokin osa-alue on jätetty vähemmälle huomiolle, se heijastuu heti yrityksen kokonaisturvallisuuteen. Tämä työ selvittää, mitä asioita yrityksen tulisi ottaa huomioon, jotta sen tietoturva olisi kunnossa. Työn tarkoituksena on kartoittaa, millaista osaamista työelämä kaipaa tietoturvan varalle Pohjois-Karjalan alueella. Työ keskittyy yritysten tietoturva-asioihin johdon ja organisoinnin näkökulmasta. Tutkimusosuudessa esitellään selvitys, millainen on tietoturvan tila pohjoiskarjalaisissa yrityksissä. Tutkimus toteutettiin kvantitatiivisena kyselytutkimuksena. Tutkimukseen vastasi 32 yritystä Pohjois-Karjalan alueelta. Tutkimus osoittaa, että yritykset ovat huomioineet parhaiten ohjelmistoturvallisuuden ja laitteistoturvallisuuden, mutta parannusta kaipaisivat etenkin hallinnollinen turvallisuus ja henkilöstöturvallisuus. Yritysten tietoturva on tasoltaan yhtä hyvä kuin on sen heikoin lenkki. Tästä syystä voidaan sanoa, että yritysten tieto-turvan tila ei ole Pohjois-Karjalassa kovinkaan hyvä.

Tutkielma keskittyy tarkastelemaan yritysten verkkoviestinnässä tarjoamaa tietoa tuotteista sekä kuluttajien tiedon tarvetta ennen ja jälkeen tuotteen hankinnan. Työssä tutkitaan verkkoviestinnän, tuotetiedon, tiedon tarpeen ja tiedon etsinnän keskeisiä elementtejä. Työn empiirisessä osiossa tarkastellaan matkapuhelinvalmistajien kotisivuillaan tarjoamaa tietoa tuotteista ja kuluttajien omia tarpeita sekä näkemyksiä. Aineisto on kerätty haastattelemalla kymmentä kuluttajaa. Verkkoviestinnän ja sähköisen tuotetiedon ominaisuudet tukevat toisiaan. Teorian ja empiirisen osion perusteella verkkosivujen on oltava päivitetyt, niiden on latauduttava nopeasti. Tuotetiedon on oltava kattavaa, luotettavaa ja ajankohtaista. Matkapuhelinvalmistajien kotisivujen merkitys matkapuhelimen ostossa ja oston jälkeen on tärkeä kuluttajille. Tiedon etsintään ja tiedon tarpeeseen internetissä vaikuttavat kuluttajien oma osaaminen, motivaatio, aiempi tietämys ja tiedon tarpeen taso. Yritysten tulee vastata verkkosivuillaan kuluttajien tiedon tarpeeseen ja helpottaa tiedon etsintää.

Tämän lainopillisen tutkimuksen aiheena on sijoituspalveluita tarjoavan tahon tiedonantovelvollisuus ei-ammattimaista asiakasta kohtaan. Tiedonantovelvollisuutta käsitellään sekä vakuutussopimuslain että arvopaperimarkkinalain kannalta. Viime vuosikymmenien aikana tiedonantovelvollisuuksiin liittyvä sääntely on lisääntynyt suuresti pankkisektorilla. Tiedonantovelvollisuuden tarkoituksena on antaa asiakkaalle riittävät tiedot perutellun päätöksen tekemiseksi. Riittävä tiedonannon taso vaihtelee tapauksesta ja asiakkaasta riippuen. Joissakin sijoituspalvelutyypeissä yleinen tiedonanto riittää, kun taas toisissa vaaditaan tuote- ja asiakaskohtaista erityistä tietoa. Yleisesti ottaen ei-ammattimaiset asiakkaat tarvitsevat enemmän tietoa kuin ammattimaiset asiakkaat. Yleisenä sääntönä voidaan kuitenkin esittää, että mitä suurempi taloudellinen merkitys palvelulla on asiakkaalle, sitä kattavampi tulisi tiedonantovelvollisuuden olla.

Le système de santé d'aujourd'hui fait appel à de nombreuses technologies de l'information nommées TIS (Technologies de l’Information en Santé). Celles-ci ont donné naissance à de nouvelles formes d’interaction médecin-patient et ont complexifié l'approche thérapeutique dite
« centrée sur le patient ». Les TIS promettent une plus grande efficacité et l’augmentation de la satisfaction des patients par le biais d’une meilleure compréhension de la maladie pour le patient. Or, elles peuvent également devenir des sources de conflit pour le professionnel de la santé, étant donné leur utilisation en dehors des rencontres cliniques ainsi que leur tendance à agir comme des barrières communicationnelles lors des consultations. Cette recherche vise a étudier les critères de design nécessaires à la conception d’un TIS pouvant améliorer la relation médecin-patient et donc, faciliter la communication et améliorer l’alliance thérapeutique. L’étude utilise une approche centrée sur l’utilisateur et vise donc à comprendre les besoins et les attentes des médecins et des patients. En étudiant les nouvelles approches en santé et les TIS, il a été possible de comprendre le contexte et les besoins des utilisateurs en terme de communication. Ces derniers sont primordiaux au processus dit centré sur l’utilisateur. Le faible taux de rétention du discours du médecin devient une barrière communicationnelle importante, tout comme le temps pressurisé. La recherche nous montre que l’ajout d’un outil virtuel de vulgarisation peut, à l’aide de média visuels (tel que des modélisations, des animations 3D et des dessins), grandement aider la relation médecin-patient.

Desde o aparecimento da Internet, têm surgido inúmeras oportunidades para os autores de artigos científicos disponibilizarem de forma livre e gratuita a sua produção intelectual. Tal produção poderá estar disponível nas mais diversas formas e inserida nos mais variados ambientes institucionais (Repositórios, Bases de Dados, entre outros). Tal constituiu uma verdadeira revolução informativa que, depois, ultrapassou em larga medida os meios limitados do mundo académico, tornando-se num fenómeno global. Consideramos que a disponibilização e o acesso à documentação da União Europeia constitui uma das faces visíveis dessa revolução. A nível da Informação, sempre houve uma necessidade dos dirigentes europeus em adotar uma Política de Informação adequada. Desde a necessidade de transmitir informação ao público e aos jornalistas nos primeiros tempos da Comunidade até à criação do Portal da União Europeia, vai um longo processo de amadurecimento do projeto europeu. A política de transparência que hoje se verifica e que se revela, acima de tudo, nas ligações proporcionadas pelo Portal é o resultado de um longo caminho de integração europeia. Assim, esta investigação consiste na identificação e na análise da documentação em acesso livre produzida pela União Europeia. O seu objetivo prioritário é tentar determinar até que ponto a documentação europeia consegue estar disponível e acessível a todos aqueles que a pretendam utilizar. Para tal, foram analisadas as mais diversas fontes institucionais, assim como as várias Bases de Dados e os vários sítios Web onde se pode aceder gratuitamente à Informação da União Europeia. As conclusões a que chegámos, assim como as considerações finais apresentadas no final deste trabalho de investigação levam-nos a perceber as políticas de acesso à documentação europeia e até que ponto elas servem de suporte à boa governação e à democracia.

Mediterranean ecosystems rival tropical ecosystems in terms of plant biodiversity. The Mediterranean Basin (MB) itself hosts 25 000 plant species, half of which are endemic. This rich biodiversity and the complex biogeographical and political issues make conservation a difficult task in the region. Species, habitat, ecosystem and landscape approaches have been used to identify conservation targets at various scales: ie, European, national, regional and local. Conservation decisions require adequate information at the species, community and habitat level. Nevertheless and despite recent improvements/efforts, this information is still incomplete, fragmented and varies from one country to another. This paper reviews the biogeographic data, the problems arising from current conservation efforts and methods for the conservation assessment and prioritization using GIS. GIS has an important role to play for managing spatial and attribute information on the ecosystems of the MB and to facilitate interactions with existing databases. Where limited information is available it can be used for prediction when directly or indirectly linked to externally built models. As well as being a predictive tool today GIS incorporate spatial techniques which can improve the level of information such as fuzzy logic, geostatistics, or provide insight about landscape changes such as 3D visualization. Where there are limited resources it can assist with identifying sites of conservation priority or the resolution of environmental conflicts (scenario building). Although not a panacea, GIS is an invaluable tool for improving the understanding of Mediterranean ecosystems and their dynamics and for practical management in a region that is under increasing pressure from human impact.
