A seguinte investigação centra-se sobre a sociogénese da nação e do Estado angolano no contexto de estado pós-colonial e de dependência externa. O presente trabalho tem como fito elaborar um conjunto de análises e interpretações de factos históricos e da realidade política angolana para compreender os sistemas de reproduções que estão na base da construção da herança colonial, e ao mesmo tempo explicar como este processo está a ser dirigido pelas elites angolanas na continuação da formação da identidade nacional. Para isso, foi importante o papel das elites nacionalistas de pendor mais internacionalista que, pelo seu legado cultural, apostaram mais na reprodução das estruturas do que em enveredarem para um pan-africanismo que caracterizou algumas tendências noutros estados pós-coloniais de África. O reforço da herança colonial está circunscrito na forma como a própria descolonização foi feita, no contexto de Guerra Fria e nos confrontos civis que se seguiram à independência. Logo, o papel dos nacionalistas foi de importância capital na constituição da nação e do Estado, a qual o processo ainda não apresenta sinais de um projecto acabado. Isto porque a dinâmica política ainda é muito dirigida pelo Estado e pela elite dirigente, perpetuando a forma de Estado centralizado de tipo colonial. As consequências desta forte centralização são a ausência de uma sociedade civil e a repressão de qualquer autonomia social ou liberdade individual. Tudo isto está a ser feito em nome da construção da identidade angolana e do pretenso Estado – Nação, que visa a uma cultura nacional.

Many challenges have been imposed on the middleware to support applications for digital TV because of the heterogeneity and resource constraints of execution platforms. In this scenario, the middleware must be highly configurable so that it can be customized to meet the requirements of applications and underlying platforms. This work aims to present the GingaForAll, a software product line developed for the Ginga - the middleware of the Brazilian Digital TV (SBTVD). GingaForAll adds the concepts of software product line, aspect orientation and model-driven development to allow: (i) the specification of the common characteristics and variables of the middleware, (ii) the modularization of crosscutting concerns - both mandatory and concepts variables - through aspects, (iii) the expression of concepts as a set of models that increase the level of abstraction and enables management of various software artifacts in terms of configurable models. This work presents the architecture of the software product line that implements such a tool and architecture that supports automatic customization of middleware. The work also presents a tool that implements the process of generating products GingaForAll

O desenvolvimento de um modelo de aplicação interativa para Televisão Digital sobre a plataforma do middleware Ginga, do SBTVD, ainda em processo, é o tema deste artigo. A referida aplicação se traduz em um Ambiente Virtual de Aprendizagem, para Educação a Distância, aplicativo destinado a acesso on demand, fora da grade de programação síncrona da emissora, em TV Digital dotada de set top box, ou conversor digital, embarcado com Ginga NCL. A metodologia utilizada na construção deste produto da pesquisa de Mestrado (que também abrange uma monografia na área de Comunicação) integra três metodologias: um modelo de Design Instrucional (ou Educacional) adequado aos recursos da TV Digital; técnicas de Usabilidade e Arquitetura da Informação para a construção de um protótipo interativo; e um modelo de Desenvolvimento de Software de ciclo de vida ágil baseado em Prototipagem Evolutiva, a fim de se gerar um modelo de aplicação interativa para criação de conteúdos instrucionais focados em EaD através da mídia TV Digital.

A Capoeira é defesa, é ataque, é ginga de corpo, é malandragem, ação e reação, um jogo de xadrez, segundo alguns capoeiristas. Para uns, esporte, para outros dança, luta, briga, filosofia de vida. Mas há ainda os que a veem como um espetáculo acrobático de habilidades corporais propagado nos filmes, shows, jogos de vídeo game, eventos turísticos, acabando por criar determinados estereótipos corporais de beleza e desempenho físico. Nesse sentido, a pesquisa teve como objetivo descrever, analisar e interpretar a cultura corporal, assim como a percepção de capoeiristas em relação ao corpo na capoeira, e dos seus contramestres/mestrando, localizados em diferentes grupos de capoeira situados em diferentes instituições, tais como: Bloco de carnaval; Clube esportivo; Academia de ginástica. Parte-se do entendimento de cultura corporal enquanto expressão de uma cultura historicamente construída, acumulada, ressignificada e expressa pelos movimentos corporais que destaca traços marcantes de um determinado grupo, de uma determinada localidade. Neste caso, dos diferentes grupos de capoeira e de suas respectivas instituições. Qual a percepção dos capoeiristas em relação ao seu próprio corpo, ao corpo de seus colegas e de seu contramestre/mestrando de capoeira? O que esperam os capoeiristas aprenderem na capoeira? E para esses capoeiristas e seus contramestres/mestrando qual o principal objetivo ao se ensinar/aprender capoeira? Seria algo em torno de um aspecto mais tecnicista que visasse prioritariamente o desenvolvimento e aperfeiçoamento das técnicas dos movimentos, floreios, esquivas? Ou também, aliado a estes aspectos, seria mais importante, para os capoeiristas, conhecer a história da capoeira, como esta veio ao longo do tempo se ressignificando e resistindo para ser hoje reconhecida como um esporte verdadeiramente nacional? Será que haveria aqueles que praticassem capoeira simplesmente para manter um padrão corporal estético propagado pela mídia e pela indústria da moda? A partir das observações, reflexões e interpretações das entrevistas chega-se a conclusão que de fato as instituições nas quais os grupos realizam suas práticas podem influenciar na filosofia de ensino/aprendizado destes. E que as percepções e interesses dos capoeiristas em relação ao próprio corpo variam pela busca de um melhor desempenho técnico, padrão de estética e pelo conhecimento histórico da capoeira, dos movimentos, golpes, esquivas e como estes vem ao longo do tempo se ressignificando

While watching TV, viewers use the remote control to turn the TV set on and off, change channel and volume, to adjust the image and audio settings, etc. Worldwide, research institutes collect information about audience measurement, which can also be used to provide personalization and recommendation services, among others. The interactive digital TV offers viewers the opportunity to interact with interactive applications associated with the broadcast program. Interactive TV infrastructure supports the capture of the user-TV interaction at fine-grained levels. In this paper we propose the capture of all the user interaction with a TV remote control-including short term and instant interactions: we argue that the corresponding captured information can be used to create content pervasively and automatically, and that this content can be used by a wide variety of services, such as audience measurement, personalization and recommendation services. The capture of fine grained data about instant and interval-based interactions also allows the underlying infrastructure to offer services at the same scale, such as annotation services and adaptative applications. We present the main modules of an infrastructure for TV-based services, along with a detailed example of a document used to record the user-remote control interaction. Our approach is evaluated by means of a proof-of-concept prototype which uses the Brazilian Digital TV System, the Ginga-NCL middleware.

The literature reports research efforts allowing the editing of interactive TV multimedia documents by end-users. In this article we propose complementary contributions relative to end-user generated interactive video, video tagging, and collaboration. In earlier work we proposed the watch-and-comment (WaC) paradigm as the seamless capture of an individual`s comments so that corresponding annotated interactive videos be automatically generated. As a proof of concept, we implemented a prototype application, the WACTOOL, that supports the capture of digital ink and voice comments over individual frames and segments of the video, producing a declarative document that specifies both: different media stream structure and synchronization. In this article, we extend the WaC paradigm in two ways. First, user-video interactions are associated with edit commands and digital ink operations. Second, focusing on collaboration and distribution issues, we employ annotations as simple containers for context information by using them as tags in order to organize, store and distribute information in a P2P-based multimedia capture platform. We highlight the design principles of the watch-and-comment paradigm, and demonstrate related results including the current version of the WACTOOL and its architecture. We also illustrate how an interactive video produced by the WACTOOL can be rendered in an interactive video environment, the Ginga-NCL player, and include results from a preliminary evaluation.

Due to the large amount of television content, which emerged from the Digital TV, viewers are facing a new challenge, how to find interesting content intuitively and efficiently. The Personalized Electronic Programming Guides (pEPG) arise as an answer to this complex challenge. We propose TrendTV a layered architecture that allows the formation of social networks among viewers of Interactive Digital TV based on online microblogging. Associated with a pEPG, this social network allows the viewer to perform content filtering on a particular subject from the indications made by other viewers of his network. Allowing the viewer to create his own indications for a particular content when it is displayed, or to analyze the importance of a particular program online, based on these indications. This allows any user to perform filtering on content and generate or exchange information with other users in a flexible and transparent way, using several different devices (TVs, Smartphones, Tablets or PCs). Moreover, this architecture defines a mechanism to perform the automatic exchange of channels based on the best program that is showing at the moment, suggesting new components to be added to the middleware of the Brazilian Digital TV System (Ginga). The result is a constructed and dynamic database containing the classification of several TV programs as well as an application to automatically switch to the best channel of the moment

Model-oriented strategies have been used to facilitate products customization in the software products lines (SPL) context and to generate the source code of these derived products through variability management. Most of these strategies use an UML (Unified Modeling Language)-based model specification. Despite its wide application, the UML-based model specification has some limitations such as the fact that it is essentially graphic, presents deficiencies regarding the precise description of the system architecture semantic representation, and generates a large model, thus hampering the visualization and comprehension of the system elements. In contrast, architecture description languages (ADLs) provide graphic and textual support for the structural representation of architectural elements, their constraints and interactions. This thesis introduces ArchSPL-MDD, a model-driven strategy in which models are specified and configured by using the LightPL-ACME ADL. Such strategy is associated to a generic process with systematic activities that enable to automatically generate customized source code from the product model. ArchSPLMDD strategy integrates aspect-oriented software development (AOSD), modeldriven development (MDD) and SPL, thus enabling the explicit modeling as well as the modularization of variabilities and crosscutting concerns. The process is instantiated by the ArchSPL-MDD tool, which supports the specification of domain models (the focus of the development) in LightPL-ACME. The ArchSPL-MDD uses the Ginga Digital TV middleware as case study. In order to evaluate the efficiency, applicability, expressiveness, and complexity of the ArchSPL-MDD strategy, a controlled experiment was carried out in order to evaluate and compare the ArchSPL-MDD tool with the GingaForAll tool, which instantiates the process that is part of the GingaForAll UML-based strategy. Both tools were used for configuring the products of Ginga SPL and generating the product source code

The tracking between models of the requirements and architecture activities is a strategy that aims to prevent loss of information, reducing the gap between these two initial activities of the software life cycle. In the context of Software Product Lines (SPL), it is important to have this support, which allows the correspondence between this two activities, with management of variability. In order to address this issue, this paper presents a process of bidirectional mapping, defining transformation rules between elements of a goaloriented requirements model (described in PL-AOVgraph) and elements of an architectural description (defined in PL-AspectualACME). These mapping rules are evaluated using a case study: the GingaForAll LPS. To automate this transformation, we developed the MaRiPLA tool (Mapping Requirements to Product Line Architecture), through MDD techniques (Modeldriven Development), including Atlas Transformation Language (ATL) with specification of Ecore metamodels jointly with Xtext , a DSL definition framework, and Acceleo, a code generation tool, in Eclipse environment. Finally, the generated models are evaluated based on quality attributes such as variability, derivability, reusability, correctness, traceability, completeness, evolvability and maintainability, extracted from the CAFÉ Quality Model

The TV is a potential midia of communication that affects all social classes and it is available in 98% of Brazilian homes. It has been used as a distributor of educational materials since the 1950s. By 2016 the Open Digital TV (ODTV) in Brazil might cover the entire national territory, replacing the TV with analog signals. Concerns about accessibility for People with Special Needs (PSN) in that media have become more intense since the 1990s worldwide. In Brazil, it is estimated 24.6 million of PSN, 23% of them having some type of hearing loss. Of these, 2.9% are reported as deafs. Brazilian Sign Language (LIBRAS) is considered the first literacy language for deaf people in Brazil. In this context, this paper presents a proposal to facilitate the generation of educational content for ODTV based on two components. One is called SynchrLIBRAS and allows subtitles synchronization in Portuguese and a LIBRAS translator window of videos downloaded from the Web. The second component allows the visualization of this content through the Brazilian System of Digital TV and IPTV - environments that implement the middleware Ginga-NCL. The main focus of this paper is the presentation of the first component: SynchrLIBRAS. This proposal has educational purposes, contributing to teach LIBRAS to people who may collaborate with social inclusion of the deaf people.
