SOS Mindelo - Aplicação Móvel de Apoio a Serviços de Emergências de Saúde

O Android é um sistema operativo de código fonte aberto desenvolvido com foco principal nos dispositivos móveis. Este trabalho pretende aplicar os recursos disponíveis no Android, nomeadamente os serviços de geolocalização (GPS), API do Google Maps, suporte a dados, entre outros para desenvolver uma aplicação móvel de apoio a serviços de emergências de saúde na cidade do Mindelo denominada de SOS Mindelo. A aplicação SOS Mindelo é uma ferramenta que permite localizar as farmácias, hospitais, clínicas e centros de saúde que estejam mais próximos geograficamente da posição do utilizador no momento da utilização da aplicação. As classes que compõe o código fonte da aplicação foram implementadas com uso da linguagem de programação JAVA enquanto que para as interfaces de utilizador se baseou na linguagem XML. A base de dados foi desenvolvida com recurso às linguagens PHP e MySql e o mesmo se encontra alojado na internet no servidor online Hostinger. Para a interligação entre a base de dados remota e a aplicação instalada no dispositivo do utilizador se recorreu á ferramenta Java Script Object Notation. Para a estimação da distância e a selecção de rotas entre a posição do dispositivo do utilizador e os possíveis destinos se recorreu ao API do Google Maps para além da implementação de um método para o cálculo da distância euclidiana entre dois pontos. Tendo em conta os parcos recursos que caracterizam os dispositivos móveis em termos de poder de processamento, espaço de armazenamento e eficiência energética as imagens, textos e outros recursos são guardados na base de dados online e acessados pelo terminal do utilizador quando necessário. O presente relatório está organizado da seguinte forma: na introdução são descritos os objectivos do desenvolvimento desta aplicação, bem como as vantagens da sua implementação. O primeiro capítulo apresenta a fundamentação teórica e as tecnologias utilizadas para o desenvolvimento da aplicação. O segundo capítulo descreve o processo de desenvolvimento da aplicação, nomeadamente a especificação dos requisitos, a apresentação dos diagramas de casos de usos e de classes, a implementação da base de dados remota, as implementações em código e as correspondentes interfaces de utilizador. Finalmente serão apresentados as conclusões finais do projecto e as perspectivas para trabalhos futuros.

Monnaie, citoyenneté et globalisation financière. Les citoyens entre protection sociale et promesses de la capitalisation boursière

La monnaie a été étudiée par des économistes hétérodoxes, des sociologues et des historiens qui ont souligné ses rapports à l'ordre collectif, mais elle n'est que rarement analysée sous l'angle de la citoyenneté. Notre thèse propose une réflexion théorique sur quatre types de fonctions (politique, symbolique, socioéconomique et psychoaffective) qui permettent à la monnaie de jouer un rôle de médiation de la citoyenneté. A partir d'une perspective qui combine les apports de l'économie politique internationale et de l'école de la régulation, nous montrons que cette médiation ne mobilise pas seulement des mécanismes sociopolitiques nationaux, mais aussi des mécanismes internationaux qui rétroagissent sur la sphère domestique des États et affectent leur capacité à définir leur régime de citoyenneté. Cette relation est analysée dans le contexte de l'institutionnalisation du système monétaire international de Bretton Woods (1944) et du développement de la globalisation financière depuis les années 1970. Si la monnaie a été mise au service d'un principe de protection des droits sociaux des citoyens contre les pressions financières extérieures après la Seconde guerre mondiale, elle contribue aujourd'hui à l'ouverture de la sphère domestique des Etats aux flux de capitaux transnationaux et à la création d'un ordre politique et juridique favorable aux droits des investisseurs. Cette dynamique est impulsée par l'essor de nouveaux intermédiaires financiers (notamment les agences de notation et les investisseurs institutionnels) et l'émergence concomitante d'une nouvelle forme d'Etat légitimée à partir d'un discours politique néolibéral insistant sur la quête de compétitivité, la réduction de la protection sociale et la responsabilisation individuelle. Elle se traduit par la privatisation des régimes de retraite et le développement des politiques d'éducation financière qui incitent les citoyens à se comporter en « preneurs de risques » actifs et responsables, assurant eux-mêmes leur sécurité économique à travers le placement de leur épargne retraite sur les marchés financiers. Nous soulignons toutefois les difficultés institutionnelles, cognitives et socioéconomiques qui rendent cette transformation de la citoyenneté contradictoire et problématique. Money has been studied by heterodox economists, sociologists and historians who stressed its relationship to collective order. However, it has hardly been analysed from the viewpoint of its relationship to citizenship. We propose a theoretical account of four types of functions (political, symbolic, socioeconomic and psychoaffective) enabling money to operate as a mediation of citizenship. From a perspective that combines the contributions of international political economy and the regulation school, we show that this mediation mobilises not only national sociopolitical mechanisms, but also international mechanisms which feed back on the domestic sphere of states and affect their capacity to define their regime of citizenship. This relationship is analysed in the context of the institutionalisation of the international monetary system of Bretton Woods (1944) and the development of financial globalization since the 1970s. If money has served to protect the social rights of citizens against external financial pressures after the Second World War, today it contributes to the opening of the domestic sphere of states to transnational capital flows and to the creation of a political and legal order favorable to the rights of investors. This dynamic is driven by the rise of new financial intermediaries (in particular rating agencies and institutional investisors) and the simultaneous emergence of a new form of state legitimized from a neoliberal political discourse emphasizing the quest for competitiveness, reduced social protection and individual responsibilization. It results in the privatization of pension systems and the development of policies of financial education that encourage citizens to behave as active and responsible « risk takers », ensuring their own economic security through the investment of their savings retirement on financial markets. However, we emphasize the institutional, cognitive and socioeconomic difficulties that make this transformation of citizenship contradictory and problematic. - Money has been studied by heterodox economists, sociologists and historians who stressed its relationship to collective order.

Fibrous Concrete Resurfacing Greene County, Iowa, HR-165, 1976

The three miles of fibrous concrete resurfacing in Greene County, Iowa were placed in September and early October, 1973. It was recognized in advance that cracking and other performance characteristics of the fibrous concrete sections and of the control sections would be major factors in the evaluation of the project. A low level aerial survey was made of the old pavement. During construction of the resurfacing, the aerial survey was checked to insure that cracks in the old pavement were referenced to the 100 ft. station marks placed in the resurfacing. Crack surveys have been conducted on dates indicated below. Additional cracks found at each subsequent survey are shown in a color matching the date notation.

Field Evaluation of Pavement Marking Materials, MLR-79-02, 1979

Pavement marking materials other than conventional paint must be evaluated as environmental standards become more restrictive. The new EPA classification for solvents states that all oil paints are photochemically reactive and, therefore, contribute to smog. This will eventually result in the elimination of organic solvents from all paints, which may occur in Iowa by 1985. The Special Investigations Section of the Office of Materials field reviewed all urban and rural applications of pavement marking materials in the spring of 1979. The field review consisted of a visual estimation of percent marking missing, percent satisfactory, and percent non-satisfactory; reflective readings by ERMA; and notation of special conditions which may have impacted performance. ERMA was not effective in evaluating the reflective quality of pavement marking materials. No pavement marking materials evaluated have been successful enough to date to totally replace conventional painting methods.

A database to aid the identification of chemicals potentially posing a health risk through percutaneous exposure

In the context of recent attempts to redefine the 'skin notation' concept, a position paper summarizing an international workshop on the topic stated that the skin notation should be a hazard indicator related to the degree of toxicity and the potential for transdermal exposure of a chemical. Within the framework of developing a web-based tool integrating this concept, we constructed a database of 7101 agents for which a percutaneous permeation constant can be estimated (using molecular weight and octanol-water partition constant), and for which at least one of the following toxicity indices could be retrieved: Inhalation occupational exposure limit (n=644), Oral lethal dose 50 (LD50, n=6708), cutaneous LD50 (n=1801), Oral no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL, n=1600), and cutaneous NOAEL (n=187). Data sources included the Registry of toxic effects of chemical substances (RTECS, MDL information systems, Inc.), PHYSPROP (Syracuse Research Corp.) and safety cards from the International Programme on Chemical Safety (IPCS). A hazard index, which corresponds to the product of exposure duration and skin surface exposed that would yield an internal dose equal to a toxic reference dose was calculated. This presentation provides a descriptive summary of the database, correlations between toxicity indices, and an example of how the web tool will help industrial hygienist decide on the possibility of a dermal risk using the hazard index.

Quand la nourriture se fait parole: Scènes de communication alimentaire dans les récits médiévaux

Depuis les travaux d'Anita Guerreau-Jalabert sur la symbolique des triangles alimentaires dans le roman arthurien, personne ne saurait douter qu'au Moyen Âge la nourriture obéit à des codes. Une scène de table ne se réduit pas à une notation à valeur référentielle, à un éclat de vie aristocratique : intégrée au récit, la notation alimentaire est un élément constitutif du sens de l'oeuvre. Plus particulièrement, un plat peut servir de message adressé par un personnage à un autre. On s'est peu intéressé, si ce n'est pour la légende du coeur mangé, à ces passages où la nourriture vient compléter, voire se substituer à la parole. Des nouvelles de Boccace (traduites par Laurent de Premierfait) aux Cent Nouvelles nouvelles et au Pogge (traduit par Guillaume Tardif), mais aussi dans les romans (Ysaÿe le Triste, Le Cuer d'amours espris, Jehan de Saintré), les exemples ne manquent pas qui, à la fin du Moyen Âge, illustrent la variété des messages alimentaires. Si le plat qu'on sert peut être l'instrument d'une vengeance (le repas cannibale !), il est aussi et surtout utilisé comme moyen de séduction. Parfois, il s'agit d'un avertissement qui, par la transgression des codes, donne voix à la morale ; ailleurs, l'ironie s'en mêle, quand la nourriture traduit une attitude de dérision face au convive. Ce dernier procédé, plus ludique, ne se rencontre pas seulement - comme on pourrait s'y attendre - dans l'univers du fabliau ou de la nouvelle. Il traverse le Moyen Âge et, du XIIe au XVe siècle, prépare l'émergence du cuisinier dont l'art et les « joyeux dits » font un double du poète.

Some of the challenges and experiences of formal education in a Mobile-Centric Society (MCS) = Algunos retos y experiencias de la educación formal en la Sociedad Móvil-Céntrica (SMC)

The aim of the paper is to describe some of the challenges faced by schools, or by formal education in general, as a consequence of today"s mobilecentric society (henceforth MCS), the term we will use to denote the new, networked learning ecology that has arisen from the massive penetration of digital media in everyday life. After revisiting some of the ideas of McLuhan and Vygotsky in the light of this new technological scenario, we describe five traits of the MCS and the challenges illustrated through educational practices that we believe schools will face if they wish to preserve their function of individualization and socialization. We believe that despite the emergence of the MCS, the main function of the school is still to provide the"box of tools" (a set of psychological instruments, such as reading, writing, mathematical notation, digital literacy, etc.) that enables people to develop their learning skills and life projects and to become part of communities and groups. However, the complexity and mobility of the new learning environments means that the position held by schools needs to be reevaluated in the face of the informal learning paths and experiences both online and offline to which learners now have access. We also need to reevaluate the meaning of the school itself as an institution and the model of learner it should be training

Análisis de la arquitectura de webs mediante tests de estrés de navegación, de usabilidad y eye tracking

Evaluar una arquitectura de la información en un sitio web ya desplegado no resulta una tarea sencilla. La mayoría de las técnicas se centran en examinar la usabilidad del sistema que, aunque afecta a la arquitectura de la información, no es el único factor que influye en ella. La principal técnica que se utiliza es el test de estrés de navegación. Se muestra un aporte metodológico para hacer dicha técnica más informativa, llevándola más allá de la simple anotación en papel por parte del usuario de respuestas a las preguntas de navegación planteadas. Se propone la combinación de ésta con otras técnicas de evaluación de la usabilidad: la técnica de pensar en voz alta o thinking aloud y un cuestionario de usabilidad. Se ha utilizado un sistema de seguimiento de la mirada o eye tracking para complementar la información obtenida mediante las técnicas aplicadas. El enfoque metodológico planteado se ha puesto a prueba analizando una serie de sitios web de bibliotecas de universidades públicas españolas. Se muestra en los resultados la validez del enfoque empleado, así como el valor que dicho enfoque y el uso del eye tracking aportan al análisis de la arquitectura de la información respecto al test de estrés de navegación tradicional.
