Data and Query Adaptation Using DaemonX
The most common applications of the today's IT world are information systems. The problems related to their design and implementation have sufficiently been solved. However, the true problems occur when an IS is already deployed and user requirements change. In this paper we introduce DaemonX - an evolution management framework which enables to manage evolution of complex applications efficiently and correctly. Using the idea of plug-ins, it enables to model almost any kind of a data format (currently XML, UML, ER, and BPMN). Since it preserves also mapping among modeled constructs of modeled formats via a common platform-independent model, it naturally supports propagation of changes to all related and affected parts

Polymorphic Data Modeling
There are currently no data modeling standards for modeling NoSQL document store databases. This work proposes a standard to fill the void. The proposed standard is based on our new data modeling pattern named The Polymorphic Table Pattern. The pattern embraces the “schemaless” nature of document store NoSQL while allowing the data modeler to use his or her existing skillsets. The concepts of our proposed modeling have been demonstrated against MongoDB
Signal processing measurement of the results of the up-down hop test using sensors
The advancement of mobile technology and sensor development has profoundly
impacted several sectors, including physical therapy and rehabilitation sciences. This
study focuses on measuring the Up-Down Hop Test findings with sensor technologies
to improve clinical assessments and rehabilitation outcomes and contribute to the
growth of sports science. By incorporating sensors into mobile devices, the study
investigates novel techniques for objectively analyzing data from the Up-Down Hop
Test, providing a complete understanding of the patient’s lower limb function and

performance and healing.
The methodology section describes the methods used to execute and evaluate the
sensor-based assessment of the Up-Down Hop Test, including sensor selection, data
collection protocols, and analytic approaches. Pilot tests and statistical analysis
have validated the suggested method’s effectiveness, proving its ability to provide a
complete knowledge of test results and guide rehabilitation efforts.
The study’s findings support the viability of using sensor technology to correctly
quantify Up-Down Hop Test outcomes. It provides valuable insights into the healing
process and aids evidence-based decision-making in physical therapy practices. This
study adds to the expanding body of knowledge about using sophisticated technology

necessidade de ferramentas objetivas, confiáveis e custo-eficazes na avaliação do desempenho atlético e recuperação, pavimentando o caminho para uma aceitação e
implementação mais amplas dessas tecnologias em ambientes clínicos.
A metodologia, incluindo a seleção de sensores apropriados, o estabelecimento de
protocolos de coleta de dados e a utilização de abordagens analíticas para interpretar
os dados, mostra uma abordagem bem pensada para a realização deste estudo. A
validação da sua metodologia através de testes piloto e análise estatística reforça o
potencial das avaliações baseadas em sensores em oferecer uma compreensão mais
matizada dos resultados do Up-Down Hop Test.
Os resultados que destacam a viabilidade e eficácia da utilização da tecnologia
de sensores para a quantificação precisa dos resultados da reabilitação são incrivelmente promissores. Esta abordagem não só ajuda no monitoramento do processo de
cura, mas também melhora a tomada de decisões baseada em evidências nas práticas
de terapia. Ao contribuir para o crescente corpo de conhecimento sobre a aplicação
de tecnologias avançadas na saúde, o seu estudo aponta para direções futuras empolgantes para o desenvolvimento de intervenções de reabilitação mais eficientes e
personalizadas.
Para contribuir ainda mais para este campo, poderia ser benéfico explorar a
integração de algoritmos de aprendizagem automática com os dados coletados dos
sensores para uma análise e modelagem preditiva ainda mais sofisticadas dos resultados da reabilitação. Além disso, investigar os impactos a longo prazo das avaliações baseadas em sensores na recuperação dos pacientes e o potencial para a integração
dessas tecnologias em programas de reabilitação em casa poderia oferecer insights
valiosos sobre a sua aplicabilidade e eficácia mais amplas
