Cybersecurity in supply chain systems: the Farm-to-Fork use case
Leligou, Helen C.; Lakka, Alexandra; Karkazis, Panagiotis A.; Costa, Joao Pita; Tordera, Eva Marin; Santos, Henrique; Romero, Antonio AlvarezModern supply chains comprise an increasing number of actors which deploy different information technology systems that capture information of a diverse nature and diverse sources (from sensors to order information). While the benefits of the automatic exchange of information between these systems have been recognized and have led to their interconnection, protecting the whole supply chain from potential attack...
Um Caso de Convulsões Induzidas por Hiperglicémia
Sequeira, Mafalda; Sousa, Bruno; Abecasis, Francisca; Santos, HenriqueOs distúrbios metabólicos como a hiperglicemia, apesar de raramente, podem ser responsáveis por alterações neurológicas focais, e devem sempre ser considerados como diagnóstico diferencial de crises convulsivas. Tipicamente cursam com hipointensidade T2 subcortical e em sequência de recuperação de inversão atenuada por fluidos (FLAIR), bem como difusão restrita em difusão nos mapas de coeficientes (ADC) na re...
Sports facilities in hotels: Travellers' preferences
Santos, Henrique; Calisto, MariaO turismo e o desporto têm crescido lado a lado ao longo dos tempos, tanto por o desporto necessitar de recorrer aos serviços e aos conhecimentos do turismo, como por se ver utilidade na utilização dos serviços e conhecimentos do desporto no âmbito da atividade turística. Por outro lado, as tendências de consumo associadas à saúde e ao bem-estar têm também sido amplamente reconhecidas no contexto do turismo. Ne...
People tracking in a smart campus context using multiple cameras
Matos, Henrique; Santos, HenriqueObject multi-tracking has been a relevant topic for different applications, such as surveillance, mobility, and ambient intelligence. It is particularly challenging when considering open spaces, like Smart Cities, which demand multi-camera solutions with issues like re-identification. In this paper, we describe a framework aiming to provide multi-tracking of people throughout a university campus as part of a la...
Blockchain and sustainability in the public sector: a risk management perspective
Escobar, Fernando; Santos, Henrique; Pereira, TeresaBlockchain (BC) adoption in the public sector can potentially address sustainability issues. Thus, blockchain is seen as an enabler and a booster of sustainability and Sustainable Development Goals accomplishments. However, BC adoption in the public sector brings challenges concerning risk management. This work presents insights from 19 expert interviews organised as a risk management model for blockchain adopt...
The emergence of a process tokenisation model for the public sector: a position...
Escobar, Fernando; Santos, Henrique; Pereira, TeresaTokenisation denotes one of the most successful implementations of blockchain that concretes its benefits into practice, also in the public sector, where it can help to reverse the declining citizen trust in governments. Process Tokenisation is the possibility of adopting blockchain as infrastructure for a business process, measured by its level of “Tokenisability”. Going towards a Process Tokenisation Model fo...
