Wiki: Plataforma Colaborativa para uma Comunicade de Prática Virtual Lusófona

Com este trabalho procura-se encontrar uma solução através de um modelo para a gestão do conhecimento numa organização internacional com base em tecnologia web 2.0 que sirva de plataforma colaborativa na criação e disseminação de conhecimento para uma comunidade de prática virtual, mas também que sirva de repositório da memória organizacional. Pretende-se, igualmente, demonstrar um novo modelo de organização social e económico, no qual se assume uma orientação para as pessoas enquanto elemento de um sistema social mais amplo, globalizado e disperso, ligado pelas tecnologias de participação e colaboração através do acesso à internet, que encontra na utilização destas ferramentas um interface para participação que vai desde a cidadania, à produção intelectual, criação de conhecimento e ao negócio, neste caso relacionado com uma prática, a gestão de recursos humanos nos países lusófonos. No decurso do projeto, estabeleceram-se contactos e reuniões de trabalho na sede da comunidade interessada, a CRHLP – Confederação de Profissionais de Recursos Humanos de Língua Portuguesa, cujos resultados constam do presente relatório para explicação das várias fases do projeto. O projeto culmina com uma proposta de um site colaborativo com base num Wiki (site Wiki), tecnologia de colaboração online, a Wiki-CRHLP – Plataforma de colaboração para a partilha do conhecimento de uma rede de prática virtual (rede profissional internacional).

Exploration of the visual system : Part 2. In vivo analysis methods : virtual-reality optomotor system, fundus examination and fluorescent angiography

The mouse has emerged as an animal model for many diseases. At IRO, we have used this animal to understand the development of many eye diseases and treatment of some of them. Precise evaluation of vision is a prerequisite for both these approaches. In this unit we describe three ways to measure vision: testing the optokinetic response, and evaluating the fundus by direct observation and by fluorescent angiography.

Heterogeneity of atherosclerotic plaque phenotypes and composition in four different arterial beds: an intravascular ultrasound virtual histology study

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to compare the plaque morphology between coronary and peripheral arteries using intravascular ultrasound (IVUS). Methods: IVUS was performed in 68 patients with coronary and 93 with peripheral artery lesions (29 carotid, 50 renal, and 14 iliac). Plaques were classified as fibroatheroma (VH-FA) (further subclassified as thin-capped [VH-TCFA] and thick-capped [VH-ThCFA]), fibrocalcific plaque (VH-FC) and pathological intimal thickening (VH-PIT). Results: Plaque rupture (13% of coronary, 7% of carotid, 6% of renal, and 7% of iliac arteries; P=NS) and VH-TCFA (37% of coronary, 24% of carotid, 16% of renal, and 7% of iliac arteries; P=0.02) was observed in all arteries. Compared to coronary arteries, VH-FA was less frequently observed in renal (P<0.001) and iliac arteries (P<0.006), while VH-PIT and VH-FC were prevalent in both of these peripheral arteries. Lesions with positive remodeling demonstrated more characteristics of VH-FA in coronary, carotid, and renal arteries compared to those with intermediate/negative remodeling (all P<0.01). There was positive relationship between RI and percent necrotic core area in all four arteries. Conclusions: Atherosclerotic plaque phenotypes were heterogeneous among four different arteries. In contrast, the associations of remodeling mode with plaque phenotype and composition were similar among the various arterial beds.

Knowledge sharing in virtual communities

The Internet has transformed the scope, boundaries and dynamics of social and economic interactions. It is argued to have broadened the notion of the community from physical, colocated groups towards collectives that are able to transcend time and space, i.e. virtual communities. Even if virtual communities have been on the academic agenda for a couple of decades, there is still surprisingly little research on knowledge sharing within them. In addition, prior research has largely neglected the complex dynamics between Internet-based communication channels and the surrounding communities in which they are embedded. This thesis aims at building a better understanding of knowledge sharing supported by conversational technologies in intra-organisational virtual communities and external virtual communities supporting relationships with customers. The focus is thus on knowledge sharing in types of virtual communities that seem to be of relevance to business organisations. The study consists of two parts. The first part introduces the research topic and discusses the overall results. The second part comprises seven research publications. Qualitative research methods are used throughout the study. The results of the study indicate that investigation of the processes of knowledge sharing in virtual communities requires a socio-technical perspective, combining the individual, social and technological levels, and understanding the interplay between them. It is claimed that collective knowledge in virtual communities creates the enabling structure for knowledge sharing, and forms the invisible structure of the community on the basis of which it operates. It consists of a shared context, social capital and a unique community culture. The Internet does not inevitably erode social interaction: it seems that supporting social relationships by means of communication technology is a matter of quantity rather than quality. In order to provide access to external knowledge and expertise, firms need to open themselves up to an array of Internet-based conversations, and to consider the relevance of virtual communities to their businesses.
