This article presents the project Sistema de Informação Processual, developed in the University of Aveiro for the Provedoria de Justiça. The system allows scarching, retrieving, presenting and annotating the digital processes. In the paper, we describe the strategy adopted in the storage and manipulation of the digital documents, the search of information in multiple repositories and the development of a parall...

This work relates the OSI model and the Pseudo-Star LAN, defining a fast and flexible protocol architecture. A new concept to access the Pseudo-Star LAN is introduced, based on the definition of a generic access interface (IAPE) and specialised access processors (PAPE). The protocols proposed to access the Pseudo-Star are the IEEE 802.3; a PAPE implementing the IBASES option (Starlan) was built. (...); Este tra...
The LANs and WANs have nowadays a great role on ever social and economical groups, from scientific and military communities to the civil society. This importance comes from the, increasing demand to share information and resources. The expansion of the number of installed networks and attached systems implies new problems, namely that concerning the network management. (...); As redes de comunicação de dados oc...
Local computer networks, today widely spread, have emerged from the need of exchanging data between terminals, computers and all sorts of network servers. However, the spoken word still remains the communication mode of choice for mankind - in the form of two-way conversations, one-way broadcasts and others. The use of local networks for the transmission of voice/data traffic has been subject of many studies. (...
The development and the convergence of technologies forces that, nowadays, the target scenery of the administration of nets, in its true dimension, have to include, besides the administration of the sets of telecommunications and of the administration of the nets of multimedia computers, the administration of systems and applications. (...); O desenvolvimento e a convergência de tecnologias força a que, hoje em...

Here is described the project and the implementation of a broadcast video conference system for Windows95 using the VCON software development kit ARMADA CRUSER 100. A communications protocol was developed to allow an easier control of the video conference. This protocol was implemented over the TCP/IP protocolsuite using datagram connections allowing the creation of adistributed environment where neither are de...
