  • Oceanic Circuits in Portuguese America (between the Eighteenth and the Beginning of the Nineteenth Centuries): Mapping Political Communication through the Digital Humanities
    Publication . Fernandes, Renata Silva; Pequeno, Valéria; Slemian, Andréa; Stumpf, Roberta
    The aim of this article is to present and discuss the creation process of the Oceanic Circuits database, centred on the mapping and analysis of petitions sent from Portuguese America to the Conselho Ultramarino (Overseas Council) and the Secretário de Estado da Marinha e do Ultramar (Secretary of State of the Navy and Overseas Territories) between 1736 and 1808. It proposes a reflection on the theoretical and methodological possibilities resulting from interdisciplinary dialogue between the areas of History and Data Systems. Initially, we present the historical sources held in the Arquivo Histórico Ultramarino (Overseas Historical Archive) in Lisbon that were selected for the research with the purpose of evidencing some of the main questions covered in the study, both in historiographic terms and in relation to the quantity and complexity of the data involved. Following this, we discuss the database pilot project, which was developed using a low code tool, signalling the potentials and limits of the application used. Finally, we look at the database specifically developed for an interdisciplinary team, discussing relevant aspects, as well as some of its characteristics. L’objectif de cet article est de présenter et de discuter le processus de création de la base de données Oceanic Circuits, centrée sur la cartographie et l’analyse des pétitions envoyées depuis l’Amérique portugaise au Conselho Ultramarino (Conseil d’Outre-Mer) et au Secretário de Estado da Marinha e do Ultramar (Secrétaire d’État de la Marine et des Territoires d’Outre-Mer) entre 1736 et 1808. Il propose une réflexion sur les possibilités théoriques et méthodologiques découlant du dialogue interdisciplinaire entre les domaines de l’Histoire et des Systèmes de données. Dans un premier temps, nous présentons les sources historiques conservées à l’Arquivo Histórico Ultramarino (Archives Historiques d’Outre-Mer) à Lisbonne, sélectionnées pour la recherche, afin de mettre en évidence certaines des principales questions abordées dans l’étude, tant en termes historiographiques qu’en relation avec la quantité et la complexité des données impliquées. Ensuite, nous discutons le projet pilote de la base de données, développé à l’aide d’un outil low code, en signalant les potentialités et les limites de l’application utilisée. Enfin, nous abordons la base de données spécifiquement développée pour une équipe interdisciplinaire, en discutant les aspects pertinents ainsi que certaines de ses caractéristiques.

  • Adoption of the GITHUB platform as a data source for creating a decision support system in an agile development context
    Publication . Cabeças, António; Santos, Bruna; Júnior, Laercio Cruvinel; Fernandes, Adriana
    The increasing adoption of agile methodologies in software development by companies aims to enhance productivity, quality, and responsiveness to market changes. This scenario demands tools capable of reliably monitoring the development process through easily visualisable metrics, facilitating analysis and decision-making. The present study aimed to develop a decision support system that provides essential metrics for managing agile teams, utilising data from GitHub repositories. The methodology comprised three main phases: (1) initial requirements gathering through interviews with agile software development experts; (2) analysis of responses to define a preliminary list of requirements; and (3) validation and finalisation of the tool's functional requirements through a brainstorming session. The study identified key metrics used by managers in conducting agile projects. The resulting tool was developed and tested, proving to be intuitive and easily analysable for end users. It provides fundamental metrics and assists teams in optimising their products and work processes, contributing significantly to the effectiveness of agile software project management.
