Problem-solving at the Azorean Robotics Open: A study of the First Challenger c...
Lima, Hélia; Silva, Sérgio; Araújo, Vítor Gaudêncio; Cascalho, José; Mendes, Armando B.This paper reports on a study of the students’ participation in the First Challenger competition, held in the Azorean Robotics Open (ARO), to understand how the First Challenger competition promotes interpersonal relationships and fosters critical thinking and problem-solving activity. The First Challenger competition explores basic robotics behaviour concepts, such as following a line and detecting colours, wh...
Data science maturity model: from raw data to pearl’s causality hierarchy
Cavique, Luís; Pinheiro, Paulo; Mendes, Armando B.Data maturity models are an important and current topic since they allow organizations to plan their medium and long-term goals. However, most maturity models do not follow what is done in digital technologies regarding experimentation. Data Science appears in the literature related to Business Intelligence (BI) and Business Analytics (BA). This work presents a new data science maturity model that combines prev...

Bringing underused learning objects to the light: a multi-agent based approach
Behr, André; Cscalho, José; Mendes, Armando B.; Guerra, Hélia; Cavique, Luís; Trigo, Paulo; Coelho, Helder; Vicari, RosaThe digital learning transformation brings the extension of the traditional libraries to online repositories. Learning object repositories are employed to deliver several functionalities related to the learning object’s lifecycle. However, these educational resources usually are not described effectively, lacking, for example, educational metadata and learning goals. Then, metadata incompleteness limits the qua...
Uso de Ontologias num Repositório de OAs sobre o Mar
Mendes, Armando B.; Cascalho, José Manuel; Behr, AndréA aprendizagem digital, apoiada em diferentes tecnologias e metodologias, permite o uso e reuso de elementos de ensino ou recursos de aprendizagem a que chamamos Objetos de Aprendizagem (OAs). Este tipo de recursos digitais tem tido um aumento de procura e utilização ao longo dos anos, em especial nestes tempos de pandemia e ensino a distância. Os OAs podem ser usados em vários contextos e combinados ou modific...
Integration of UML diagrams from the perspective of enterprise architecture
Cavique, Luís; Cavique, Mariana; Mendes, Armando B.An integrated view of the information system has been an objective to deal with complexity. However, bibliography proposes many solutions with many synonyms depending on the layer, methodology, framework or tool used, that does not allow a broad view of the system. In this work we chose three basic elements of the information systems and we demonstrate how they are enough to integrate a set of essential UML dia...
Enhancing learning object repositories with ontologies
Behr, André; Mendes, Armando B.; Cascalho, José; Rossi, Luiz; Vicari, Rosa; Trigo, Paulo; Novo, Paulo; Cavique, Luís; Guerra, HéliaIn this paper, we present a review on the use of ontologies in learning object repositories systems for searching and suggestion purposes, considering its adoption for the seaThings project that aims to promote the ocean literacy. We also describe the use case of the Cognix system and Agent-based Learning Objects - OBAA metadata standard for learning objects which is being implemented on a new learning objects ...
Ser Humano em plena revolução industrial 4.0
Mendes, Armando B.[…]. Um recente relatório da Deloitte intitulado “Forces of Change: Industry 4.0” descreve a Indústria 4.0 como: “promessa de uma nova revolução industrial que combina técnicas avançadas de produção e operações com tecnologias digitais inteligentes para criar uma empresa digital que não só é ligada e autónoma, mas também pode comunicar, analisar e usar dados para impulsionar a inteligência, usada como a capacid...

The OBAA Standard for Developing Repositories of Learning Objects: the Case of ...
Mendes, Armando B.; Cascalho, José M. V. R.; Vicarri, Rosa Maria; Costa, Ana Cristina M. R.; Rossi, Luíz H. L.; Faria, Cláudia; Botelho, Andreia Z. C.This paper describes the existing web resources of learning objects to promote ocean literacy. The several projects and sites are explored, and the shortcomings revealed. The limitations identified include insufficient metadata about registered learning objects and lack of support for intelligent applications. As solution, we promote the seaThings project that relies on a multi-disciplinary approach to promote ...
