The growing prevalence of poor nutrition is a major public health concern, as it fuels the rise of various diseases. Obesity, a silent and rapidly growing threat linked to unhealthy eating, is a prime example. Despite the abundance of information on diets and recipes, finding a personalized approach to healthy eating can be a challenge. Recommendation systems can filter from a food logging dataset the informati...
This paper deals with the determinants of education-job match for higher-education graduates, using a logistic regression model to identify explanatory variables related to sociodemographic, academic trajectory and institutional characteristics. The empirical analysis is based on an anonymous online questionnaire administered to a sample of graduates, from 2014 to 2019, in Portuguese institutions, of which abou...
In the past few decades, the urbanization area increased significantly, requiring enhanced services and applications to improve the lifestyle of its citizens. Lighting is one of the most relevant infrastructures due to its impact on modern societies, but it is also complex to manage them in cities since it involves a massive number of widespread posts and is costly as the result of the consumption of significan...
Several modern-day problems, like information overload and big data, need to deal with large amounts of data. As such, to meet the application requirements, for instance, performance and consistency, more and more systems are adapting to the specificities. The existing Relational Database Management System (RDBMS)’s the processing of massive data has become an issue because these databases do not deal with a ma...

Antibiotic-susceptible bacteria may survive bactericidal antibiotics if other co-inhabiting bacteria detoxify the medium through antibiotic degradation or modification, a phenomenon denominated as indirect resistance. However, it is unclear how susceptible cells survive while the medium is still toxic. One explanation relies on the speed of detoxification, and another, non-exclusive explanation, relies on persi...
Motivated by challenges that emerged from Complex Event Processing (CEP) in Big Data contexts, an Intelligent Event Broker (IEB) was previously proposed as a CEP system built on flexible and scalable Big Data technologies and techniques, being already applied to Industry 4.0 scenarios. A key feature of the IEB lies in an effective visualization system for meta-monitorization and management. An analysis of previ...
Current trends in technology development, both in terms of processing and communications, brought a new paradigm known as IoT (Internet of Things). Notwithstanding all anticipated advantages, from business to quality of life impacts, there are important challenges to overcome. Above all security and privacy requirements need to be addressed carefully looking for ways to control trust levels. Concerning system a...
