Design da semipresencialidade na formação de tradutores técnico-cientÃficos, do português ao espanhol
O objectivo deste artigo é apresentar o design de uma disciplina de tradução técnico-cientÃfica do português ao espanhol, na modalidade semipresencial. As tecnologias permitem uma combinação de sessões presenciais com trabalho autônomo, dado que criam um espaço de debate no qual se podem construir aprendizagens sem limitações de tempo nem de espaço. Além disso, o seu uso é indispensável na formação de tradutores, porque permite que o aluno desenvolva competências necessárias que o ajudarão a integrar-se no mercado de trabalho. Para o design, partimos de uma (semi)presencialidade de 35% das horas de trabalho do aluno e propomos uma progressão do ensino articulado em unidades didáticas. Em seguida, detalhamos os instrumentos tecnológicos que propomos, assim como os respectivos usos, e as ferramentas que possibilitam a recolha de informação para avaliar o design e poder aperfeiçoá-lo. Embora o design seja de uma disciplina de tradução técnico-cientÃfica do português ao espanhol, pode ser extrapolado a qualquer especialização e combinação linguÃsticas.The aim of this article is to present the design of a scientific and technical translation course from Portuguese into Spanish following a blended learning model. Technologies enable the combination of face-to-face sessions with autonomous work and create an area of debate in which learning can be built without limitations of time and space. Its use is also essential in translator training because they allow the student to develop skills necessary for insertion into the labor market. In this article, I explain that 35% of students' working hours are done face-to-face, and that the teaching proposal is articulated in teaching units that guarantee the learning progression. I explain the technological tools that I propose for virtual work and their uses, and the instruments to collect information in order to evaluate the design and, consequently, improve it. The design, although being specific of a scientific and technical translation subject from Portuguese into Spanish, can be extrapolated to any speciality and language combination
The organizational design of nonprofits for people with disabilities
Utilizando información obtenida de los directivos de 105 pequeñas organizaciones sin fines de lucro españolas
que, en el año 2007, se dedicaban a la prestación de servicios a personas con discapacidad, hemos analizado
como el diseño organizativo –en concreto, los sistemas de recompensas extrÃnsecas e intrÃnsecas- influye sobre la
delegación, la motivación y la transferencia de conocimiento a la hora de lograr el objetivo de la organización
consistente en mejorar la calidad de vida de las personas que viven con una discapacidad. Los resultados
muestran que, debido a la carencia de conocimiento técnico, los directivos de estas entidades no lucrativas
(ENL) deben delegar derechos de decisión en empleados cualificados y utilizar en mayor medida recompensas
intrÃnsecas y extrÃnsecas para motivar a los empleados a que transmitan conocimiento entre ellos eficientemente.We use data obtained from managers of 105 small nonprofit organizations (NPOs) providing services to people
with disabilities in Spain in 2007 to examine how organizational design—particularly, extrinsic and intrinsic
reward systems—impacts delegation, motivation, and knowledge transfer to achieve the NPO’s goal to improve
the lives of persons living with disabilities. We find that, due to lack of technical knowledge, managers of these
NPOs must delegate decision rights to qualified employees and that they successfully use a higher degree of
intrinsic and extrinsic rewards to motivate employees to transfer knowledge among themselves efficiently
Relatório de Estágio
No presente relatório, está o percurso realizado, ao longo de seis meses de estágio, na empresa Maria Design, uma agência de design, marketing, planeamento estratégico e tecnologia, situada nos arredores de Lisboa.
Todo o percurso serviu para adquirir novos conhecimentos, a nÃvel técnico, prático e teórico, ganhar experiência profissional, e perceber, da melhor forma, como funciona uma agência de design e todos os processos criativos envolventes na criação de campanhas.
Os projectos realizados ao longo dos seis meses, são fruto de várias horas de trabalho, pesquisa e de muitos processos de brainstorming com toda a equipa criativa e comercial, dos quais destaco seis campanhas principais (CPR, Repsol Gás, Transformação, Ladival tatuagens, All Aboard e Mobile).
Todas as etapas referidas no parágrafo anterior, serão explicadas detalhadamente, consoante os trabalhos em questão
Determination of the influence of specific building regulations in smart buildings
The automation of domestic services began to be implemented in buildings since the late nineteenth century, and today we are used to terms like ‘intelligent buildings’, ‘digital home’ or ‘domotic buildings’. These concepts tell us about constructions which integrate
new technologies in order to improve comfort, optimize energy consumption or enhance the security of users. In conjunction, building regulations have been updated to suit the needs of society and to regulate these new facilities in such structures. However, we are not always
sure about how far, from the quantitative or qualitative point of view, legislation should
regulate certain aspects of the building activity. Consequently, content analysis is adopted in
this research to determine the influence of building regulations in the implementation of
new technologies in the construction process. This study includes the analysis of different
European regulations, the collection and documentation of such guidelines that have been
established and a study of the impact that all of these have had in the way we start thinking an architectural project. The achievements of the research could be explained in terms of the regulatory requirements that must be taken into account in order to achieve a successful implementation of a home automation system, and the key finding has been the confirmation of how the design of smart buildings may be promoted through specific regulatory requirements while other factors, such as the global economic situation, do not seem to affect directly the rate of penetration of home automation in construction
Linear cryptanalysis of pseudorandom functions
Relatório de projeto de pesquisa.In this paper, we study linear relations propagating across block ciphers from the key input to the ciphertext (for a fixed plaintext block). This is a usual setting of a one-way function, used for instance in modes of operation such as KFB (key feedback). We instantiate the block cipher with the full 16-round DES and -DES, 10-round LOKI91 and 24-round Khufu, for which linear relations with high bias are well known. Other interesting targets include the full 8.5-round IDEA and PES ciphers for which high bias linear relations exist under the assumption of weak keys. Consequences of these findings impact the security of modes of operation such as KFB and of pseudorandom number/bit generators. These analyses were possible due to the linear structure and the poor diffusion of the key schedule algorithms. These findings shall motivate carefull (re)design of current and future key schedule algorithms

Hybrid Prototypes to Assist Modeling Automotive Seats
The development of new modular seats is an important issue in the automotive industry.
However, is very time consuming and costly. Virtual models and hybrid prototypes could
accelerate the car seats development process. The hybrid prototypes are mainly manufactured by
rapid prototyping with multi materials. The objective of this paper is to establish a methodology
to develop innovative lightweight multi-functional, modular car seats to be used in Multi-Purpose
Vehicles (MPV), by means of FEA simulation and rapid prototyping additive/subtractive
technologies utilizing multi materials. A case study is presented to validate the developed
methodology. The manufactured hybrid prototype’s reproduces the main functionalities of the
MPV modular seat, namely its three key positions: normal, stored and table.Mechanical Engineerin
