The impact of clinical supervision on burnout among registered nurses: A scopin...
Rosas Rodrigues, Cátia; Rocha, Sandra; Trigo, Salomé; Silva, Luís; Silva, Mafalda; Rosinhas, AnaIntroduction: Nursing practice is based on interpersonal relationships, which entails greater emotional involvement. In recent times, there have been high levels of burnout among nurses. Clinical supervision in nursing plays a role in the development of professional identity, with benefits for professional satisfaction and a reduction in stress levels among nurses. Nurses should consider clinical supervision a...
Legal frameworks for blockchain applications: a comparative study with implicat...
Hafe, Francisco Von; Wagle, Yash; Guede-Fernández, Federico; Giordano, Ana Paula; Silva, Luís; Azevedo, SaloméIntroduction: The decentralised nature of blockchain technology challenges traditional legal frameworks, creating regulatory gaps in asset classification, taxation, and consumer protection. In Europe, divergent approaches, from specialised blockchain laws to adaptations of general financial legislation, hinder cross-border deployment and limit blockchain’s potential. These disparities make compliance difficult ...
Management of temporal bone trauma – literature revision and algorithm proposal
Rebelo, Diliana; Rato, Catarina; Silva, Luís; Miguéis, António; Miguéis, JorgeIntroduction: Temporal bone trauma frequently occurs in the context of high-kinetic-energy trauma, often associated with multiple bodily injuries. Objective: To present a brief literature review on temporal bone trauma and propose a protocol for approaching these situations in a tertiary hospital. Description: Initial assessment following high-kinetic-energy trauma requires a summary ABCDE observation to ensure...
Tourists' assessment of economic value, benefits and negative impacts of pedest...
Azevedo, António; Freire, Francisco; Silva, Luís; Carapinha, Aurora; Matos, RuteThis paper presents the conclusions of an exploratory study conducted by an Associated Research Laboratory which aimed to fill a gap in research by empirically assessing the quality and economic value of the recreational cultural ecosystem services generated by two walkways/boardwalks in Portugal (MRW-Mondego River and PRW-Paiva River). A questionnaire applied to visitors at the entrances/exits of those linear ...
A BiLSTM approach to outfit compatibility and image similarity
Silva, Luís; Oliveira, Francisco; Gomes, Ivan; Araújo, C. Mendes; Oliveira, JoãoIn the ever-evolving world of fashion, building the perfect outfit can be a challenge. We propose a fashion recommendation system, which we call Visual Search, that uses computer vision and deep learning to ensure a coordinated set of fashion recommendations. The system allows users to upload a single photo of their outfit, where a pretrained YOLO model, further fine-tuned on a dataset of labeled clothing items...
A Pragmatic Approach for Web3 Software Quality Assurance Based on International...
Antunes, Rodrigo Cerejo; Freitas, Liliana; Dias, Pedro; Silva, Luís; Guede-Fernandez, Federico; Azevedo, SaloméEnsuring software quality in the Web3 ecosystem presents unique challenges due to its decentralized architecture and evolving technical landscape. While international standards such as the SQuaRE (Systems and software Quality Requirements and Evaluation) framework offer structured approaches for quality assurance, they are often perceived as overly theoretical and not directly applicable to blockchain-based app...
Microsatellites reveal high levels of genetic admixture in the natural populati...
Rego, Rúben; Vieira, Ângela F.; Silva, Luís; Elias, Rui B.; Silva, Carlos; Resendes, Roberto; Moura, MónicaLaurus (Lauraceae) species are currently restricted to isolated refugia in the southern Black Sea, Mediterranean Basin, southern Morocco, and Macaronesian archipelagos. One to three species of Laurus has been recognized: the Azorean endemic Laurus azorica, L. nobilis from the Mediterranean, and L. novocanariensis from Madeira and the Canary Islands. This study aims to determine the population structure, genetic...
A regression deep learning approach for fashion compatibility
Silva, Luís; Gomes, Ivan; Araújo, C. Mendes; Cepeda, Tiago; Oliveira, Francisco; Oliveira, JoãoIn the ever-evolving world of fashion, building the perfect outfit can be a challenge. We propose a fashion recommendation system, which we call Visual Search, that uses computer vision and deep learning to ensure that it has a co-ordinated set of fashion recommendations. It looks at photos of incomplete outfits, recognizes existing items, and suggests the most compatible missing piece. At the heart of our syst...
Trading runtime for energy efficiency: leveraging power caps to save energy acr...
Cunha, Simão; Silva, Luís; Saraiva, João; Fernandes, João PauloEnergy efficiency of software is crucial in minimizing environmental impact and reducing operational costs of ICT systems. Energy efficiency is therefore a key area of contemporary software language engineering research. A recurrent discussion that excites our community is whether runtime performance is always a proxy for energy efficiency. While a generalized intuition seems to suggest this is the case, this i...
Investigadores da UAc e do ISA publicam dois artigos sobre as implicações das a...
Varela, Danilson; Romeiras, Maria M.; Silva, LuísOs investigadores Danilson Varela (Nova Business Shool, CIBIO), Maria Romeiras (ISA, LEAF) e Luís Silva (UAc, CIBIO) publicaram dois estudos técnico-científicos nas revistas internacionais “Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution” e “Global Ecology and Conservation”, acerca dos fatores climáticos que afetam a distribuição das árvores endémicas e nativas de Cabo Verde.
