Desenvolvimento de firmware para testes de produção de produtos IoT

TCC(graduação) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Centro Tecnológico. Engenharia de Controle e Automação.Este projeto propõe o desenvolvimento de um firmware para automatização de um processo de teste de produtos da linha de gateways de IoT da empresa Khomp. Os testes de produto na empresa são denominados T2 e buscam validar as funcionalida- des de cada módulo do produto quando este já está completamente montado, sendo o último teste realizado antes da expedição ao cliente final. Cada elemento testado demanda o uso de diferentes abordagens e tecnologias. O objetivo que se busca com a implementação deste firmware é reduzir significativamente o tempo empregado para testes de produto da linha ITG substituindo um longo processo manual por outro au- tomático e mais simples, também mitigando possíveis falhas humanas. Para isso, são utilizadas técnicas de programação concorrente, testes de hardware e software e o de- senvolvimento de uma interface web para monitoramento dos testes e direcionamento para as etapas guiadas. O firmware é implementado utilizando a linguagem Golang e a interface web é desenvolvida utilizando Svelte. Três metodologias ágeis pautam o desenvolvimento deste trabalho: SCRUM para gerenciamento de projeto, FDD para definir o desenvolvimento e TDD para garantir a qualidade do software. Para validação dos resultados, são apresentadas análises comparando o tempo de duração de teste entre os processos e também os feedbacks dos usuários.This project proposes the development of a firmware for automating a product testing process from the IoT gateways line from Khomp company. The company’s product tests are called T2 and seek to validate the functionality of each product module when it is already fully assembled, the last test being carried out before shipping to the final cus- tomer. Each element tested requires the use of different approaches and technologies. The objective pursued with the implementation of this firmware is to significantly reduce the time used for product testing of the ITG line, replacing a long manual process with an automatic and simpler one, also mitigating possible human errors. For this, concur- rent programming techniques are used, as well as hardware and software tests and the development of a web interface for monitoring the tests and directing the user to the guided steps. The firmware is implemented using the Golang language and the web interface is developed using Svelte. Three agile methodologies guide the development of this work: SCRUM for project management, FDD to define the development and TDD to guarantee the software quality. To validate the results, analyzes are presented comparing the test duration time between the processes and also the users’ feedbacks

Avaliação das propriedades do biopolímero polihidroxibutirato (PHB) extraído por vermes de Zophobas morio Fabricius

Polihidroxibutirato (PHB) é um biopolímero produzido intracelularmente e acumulado como reserva de energia por muitos microrganismos, sendo o principal, a bactéria Cupriavidus necator. Logo, é necessário realizar a extração dos grânulos intracelulares do interior das células. A extração química do PHB com clorofórmio e hipoclorito de sódio é eficiente, porém, utilizam-se elevadas quantidades de clorofórmio, solvente tóxico e volátil. Assim, faz-se necessário o estudo de novas tecnologias para a extração do PHB, buscando tornar o processo viável tecnologicamente, visto que este biopolímero é um importante candidato para substituição de polipropileno (PP). Diante desse contexto, este trabalho objetivou avaliar o processo de extração do PHB por meio das larvas de Zophobas morio Fabricius, comparado ao processo químico tradicional. O PHB foi sintetizado pela bactéria Cupriavidus necator em frascos de Erlenmeyer com 300 mL de meio mineral contendo glicose e frutose como fontes de carbono. O cultivo foi conduzido por 24 h a 30 °C e 150 rpm. A biomassa obtida do cultivo foi submetida à extração química (dispersão de clorofórmio/hipoclorito de sódio) e biológica, sendo, para isto, utilizada em uma mistura 2:1 (m/m) de farelo de trigo para biomassa úmida contendo PHB como fonte de alimentação das larvas de Zophobas morio Fabricius. O PHB obtido pelos dois processos foi caracterizado por  termogravimetria (TG), calorimetria diferencial exploratória (DSC), espectroscopia na região do infravermelho com transformada de Fourier - reflexão total atenuada (FTIR/ATR), difratometria de raios-X (DRX) e microscopia eletrônica de varredura (MEV). Verificou-se que a amostra extraída pelo método biológico (PHB_EB), quando comparada com a amostra extraída pelo método químico (PHB_EQ), apresentou a mesma estrutura química e que a metodologia biológica usando larvas apresentou-se mais rápida e eficiente, garantindo a extração do PHB com elevada pureza e estabilidade térmica, com reduzida quantidade de solvente, tornando este processo mais ambientalmente amigável. Palavras-chave: Extração biológica, Polihidroxibutirato, Zophobas morio Fabricius

The LHCb upgrade I

International audienceThe LHCb upgrade represents a major change of the experiment. The detectors have been almost completely renewed to allow running at an instantaneous luminosity five times larger than that of the previous running periods. Readout of all detectors into an all-software trigger is central to the new design, facilitating the reconstruction of events at the maximum LHC interaction rate, and their selection in real time. The experiment's tracking system has been completely upgraded with a new pixel vertex detector, a silicon tracker upstream of the dipole magnet and three scintillating fibre tracking stations downstream of the magnet. The whole photon detection system of the RICH detectors has been renewed and the readout electronics of the calorimeter and muon systems have been fully overhauled. The first stage of the all-software trigger is implemented on a GPU farm. The output of the trigger provides a combination of totally reconstructed physics objects, such as tracks and vertices, ready for final analysis, and of entire events which need further offline reprocessing. This scheme required a complete revision of the computing model and rewriting of the experiment's software
