A few years ago, validating proteins to see if they were good or bad was a process that took years. With the creation of the Ramachandran Graph that evaluates protein structures through the angles φ (phi) and ψ (psi), this task became less onerous. With the evolution of computing and bioinformatics, platforms have been created to generate Ramachand...

Macromolecules are proteins formed by amino acids joined by peptide bonds, and can be described in different structural levels: primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary. It’s possible to extract a small part of the three dimensional structure of the protein to be used as a ligand. However, the extraction of fragments by experimental methods is e...

This article describes the application of two human-computer interaction tests (IHC) in an Android application© called "+Leite", created to help small milk producers measure the efficiency of their production. One of these tests is called Heuristic Assessment which consists of identifying errors based on the 10 Nielsen heuristics (1998) and classif...

O Instituto Federal de Educação, Ciência e Tecnologia de Rondônia possui uma Política de Assistência Estudantil (PAE) por meio do qual oferta programas de assistência estudantil, dentre os quais, há o Programa de Auxílio Permanência (PROAP) que concede auxílios financeiros para estudantes economicamente vulneráveis com o objetivo de ajudar nas desp...

Body condition score (BCS) is a categorical variable that is widely accepted as an important tool for subjectively quantifying energy reserves in dairy cows. The aims of this study was to compare milk production and some metabolic parameters of crossbred dairy cows with low, adequate and high BCS in the recent postpartum period (PPP). This study in...

The present work aimed to insert strategic tools with the use of board games in order to assist and facilitate learning about the history of Olympic games, highlighting the importance of working the Olympic context in the disciplines of Physical Education and History. Even with the advance of technology, teachers still find it difficult to teach th...

The basic literacy is a complex phase, composed of several stages that require dedication to the conclusion of the process. Nowadays, with the evolution of electronic devices and with the advent of data mining technology, respectively, the teaching and monitoring of the stages of literacy can be facilitated by the introduction of its principles int...

Nos últimos anos o número de pessoas que possuem dispositivos móveis no Brasil tem crescido. Através de smartphones ou tablets qualquer pessoa tem a possibilidade de ter acesso a um vasto volume de informações em qualquer lugar, a qualquer hora. Neste contexto, utilizar as tecnologias na educação possibilitam um novo estilo de aprendizado, menos on...

With the evolution of management practices, new management methods and tools were adopted in public entities in order to optimize the delivery of services to their steakholders. In this scenario, the Balanced Scorecard (BSC) offers an important tool to assist in the strategic management of public entities. Therefore, this work aims to generate a bi...

Nas Redes Ópticas Elásticas (Elastic Optical Networks - EON), os caminhos ópticos são estabelecidos mediante a chegada de demandas de tráfego. O espectro óptico alocado é ajustado para atenderá largura de banda necessária, o que levaá criação de canais de diferentes capacidades na rede. O processo contínuo de criação e remoção desses canais causa o...

Aplicações científicas podem exigir bastante recurso computacional para que os resultados sejam alcançados. Compreender e comprovar resultados científicos implicam na realização de análises estatísticas apropriadas. Para isso, pesquisadores normalmente necessitam realizar diversas simulações, analisando corretamente as diferenças obtidas em cada repl...

This paper presents the Optical Network Simulator-Wavelength Division Multiplexing / Elastic Optical Network (ONS-WDM/EON), a tool for optical networks evaluation. The ONS is a discrete event simulator which aims simulate traffic with arrivals and departures of connection requests from both WDM optical networks and the recent EON paradigm. ONS prov...
