Microgravity is an environment incompatible with human physiology that induces unique physiological changes to the body. Exposure to microgravity environment can cause some possible physiological hazards, such as impairment of immune function, bone mass and skeletal muscle mass, in addition to possible negative psycological alterations (depression,...
Transporte aéreo é a maneira mais rápida para o deslocamento em viagens. Seja pela pressão atmosférica de oxigênio, a própria tensão ou outro condicionante, tudo estressa de uma certa maneira o organismo humano, com a possibilidade de ocorrer alguma complicação de saúde em detrimento desta série de fatores, em voo. Desta maneira, desenvolveu-se uma...
Gamification i.e., the incorporation of game design elements into non-game contexts, represents a transformative tool in health education. In this sense, the increasingly intertwined fields of technology, education, and health present opportunities for informed decision-making and the training of educators, health professionals, and policymakers. T...

Background and objective
Circular RNAs (circRNAs) are endogenous molecules of non-coding RNA that form a covalently closed loop at the 3′ and 5′ ends. Recently, the role of these molecules in the regulation of gene expression and their involvement in several human pathologies has gained notoriety. The identification of circRNAs is highly dependent...
The use of patient-reported outcomes brings direct benefits to the daily practice in Clinical Oncology, providing information that allows the monitoring of patients between consultations, with an increase in the bond with the medical team and the patient's satisfaction with their treatment. This review seeks to identify electronic systems for colle...
Introduction:
Suicide is a serious public health problem that affects the whole world. This study describes development of the prototype for an mHealth application (app) intended to assist healthcare professionals to identify suicide risk in hospitalized patients and reports on testing of the app by some of these professionals, conducted to confir...
Background
It is necessary to ensure functional diagnosis and auditory rehabilitation as part of a continuous and inseparable follow-up process that begins with Neonatal Hearing Screening to achieve the expected outcome in children with hearing loss. Different software controls the data of this process, adopting different strategies and involving t...
Introdução:A Retinopatia Diabética (RD) é uma complicação microvascular resultante da oclusão dos vasos retinianos provocado pela diabetes. O exame de fundo de olho é utilizado para identificar os ach
A strategy to promote innovation in organizations consists of the adoption of Research, Development and Innovation (R&D&I) management systems. This paper aims at describing the current situation of the new R&D&I Management Model (MGPDI) that is applicable to any organization, independently of the size, type and activity. The novelty is in the defin...
This paper presents four patterns to teach software testing to non-developers. These patterns were derived from our experiences, as professor and as instructor, on teaching software testing techniques and strategies to professionals without software development background. We´ve proposed these patterns considering the context driven approach to sof...
Being able to assure and evaluate system functionality and reliability is essential when we consider the concept of software quality. Although the concept of quality is broader, all the other criteria are secondary if a system fails performing its functions. Software testing is one of the primary methods used in the validation and verification of o...
Resumen. Un abordaje para promover la innovación en las organizaciones consiste en la adopción de sistemas de gestión de la Investigación, Desarrollo e Innovación (I+D+i). Este trabajo describe el MGPDI – Modelo de Gestión de la I+D+i, que es aplicable a cualquier organización, independientemente del porte, tipo y actividad. La metodologia MGPDI es...
This article presents a controlled experiment that compares the behavior of the testing techniques Statement Coverage and All Uses. The design of this experiment is typical for a factor with two alternatives. A total of 14 subjects carry out tests on a single program. The results indicate that there is enough statistical evidence to state that the...
This paper presents a framework for evaluate and compare different defect taxonomies. Six well-known taxonomies are evaluated with it and the results are showed. We found deficiencies in every tax-onomy once they are evaluated with the framework.
A group of 17 students applied 5 unit verification techniques in a simple Java program as training for a formal experiment. The verification techniques applied are desktop inspection, equivalence partitioning and boundary-value anal-ysis, decision table, linearly independent path, and multiple condition coverage. The first one is a static technique...
The use of models and methodologies scientifically developed is gaining maturity and visibility due to the increasing concern of software developers with the common problems of their area. Although TSP does not describe methods that address all process areas of CMMI, this combination represents an ideal strategy to make process improvement projects...
The technology of the reuse grew substantially in the latest years. With the increase of levels of reuse in the process of developing systems, the organizations have reduced significantly its costs and have reached incomparable profits in the quality of the final product. Besides, all these factors are associated with the reduction of development t...

RESUMO A tecnologia da reutilização cresceu substancialmente nos últimos anos. Com o aumento dos níveis de reaproveitamento no processo de desenvolver sistemas, as organizações têm reduzido significativamente seus custos e têm alcançado ganhos incomparáveis em qualidade de produto, associados à redução do tempo de desenvolvimento. Como decorrência...
There are many formal experiments to evaluate the perfor-mance of different software testing techniques. The first we know about is from 1978 [1].The most recent one is currently under execution and some initial results have already been obtained [2]. Having a compari-son framework of experiments is necessary in order to be able to formally compare...
Here we present a formal experiment in order to know the effectiveness of 5 different unit testing techniques. The techniques are: desktop inspection, equivalence partitioning and boundary-value analysis, decision table, linearly independent path, and multiple condition coverage. The proposed design is a one factor with multiple levels one. This is...
