- BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE IN THE TOOL MANAGEMENT USED BY THE CUT AND CNC MACHINES OF THE ORNAMENTAL ROCKS INDUSTRYPublication . Martinho, Domingos; TERESO, MARCO; Sobreiro, Pedro; Pratas, AntonioIn the ornamental stone industry, improving production processes is a constant challenge for managers looking for solutions that improve the competitiveness of the companies. The management of cutting and computerized cut command machine tools is one of the areas where this improvement in management processes can have a positive effect on the competitiveness and productivity of companies. With this purpose, a model based on business intelligence methodologies was developed to systematize and automate the management process. The proposed model consists of the following layers: acquisition, extract, transform and load, storage and access and analysis. The acquisition layer consists of the interface with data available in various formats. The extract, transform and load process aims to extract data from these repositories and load them into a data warehouse. While the access and analysis phase is based on the use of software tools with graphical user interface with advanced analysis reporting features. The technology infrastructure is supported by the open source Tibco Jaspersoft Community Edition software package, which provides tools for the practical implementation of the defined model. With this work, it is hoped to implement the defined business intelligence model thus giving answers to the problems identified by providing information for the decision-making that corresponds to the needs of the managers.
- PREVISÃO DO TEMPO DE PERMANÊNCIA EM DOIS LARES DO DISTRITO DE SANTARÉMPublication . Sobreiro, Pedro; Martinho, Domingos; Pratas, Antonio; TERESO, MARCOA previsão do tempo de permanência por parte dos utentes de lares, baseada na análise dos dados existentes, constitui um indicador da maior importância para os gestores deste tipo de equipamentos ajudando-os a planear os recursos necessários. Neste estudo desenvolveu-se uma análise para determinar o tempo de permanência de um idoso num lar e quais são as variáveis que influenciam esse tempo de permanência. Os dados foram analisados tendo por base o modelo de regressão de Cox onde se verificou que as variáveis faturação acumulada, Idade e distância da residência ao lar têm impacto no tempo de permanência. Na aplicação do teste log-rank encontramos diferenças na sobrevivência nas variáveis faturação acumulada e idade. Os resultados obtidos podem ser úteis para avaliação do tempo que decorre até ao abandono e dessa forma permitir planear os recursos necessários para acompanhar os utentes dos lares.
- Infrared Thermal Imaging: A dataset definition towards decision making and intelligencePublication . Ricardo Vardasca, PhD, ASIS, FRPS; Bento, Fernando; TERESO, MARCO; Martinho, DomingosInfrared imaging is being used every day for monitoring and diagnostic purposes, although it is poorly documented, which can be a major barrier for intelligence creation from the data collected. This research looked deeper into reference recent literature to find the different sources of data related to an IR examination. It was found that exam, image, object of interest, environmental and equipment data are required for a comprehensive dataset. This dataset will enforce quality assurance and drive decision making through being the basis for intelligence generation.
- Easy-Programming: towards a web collaborating algorithmic and programming aid for early apprenticesPublication . Ricardo Vardasca, PhD, ASIS, FRPS; TERESO, MARCO; Bento, Fernando; Martinho, DomingosScience, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) under graduate students must develop problem solving skills through algorithmic and programming learning. There are several tools available to aid them in this pro cess but none in a web collaborative environment that can be used for e learning accommodating the three methods available for that development: code, flowchart, and pseudocode. It is aim of this research to outline the exist ing tools and their features, and to propose a new web based collaborative tool accommodating the main features found. An architecture, technological infra structure, database structure, requirements definition, UML use case and class diagrams and a user interface were proposed. New STEM undergraduate stu dents can develop a solid foundation in algorithmic thinking, problem-solving skills, and the ability to effectively communicate and collaborate with others, establishing the foundations for their success in specific fields.
