Fenologia e produção da videira 'Niagara Rosada' conduzida em manjedoura na forma de y sob telado plástico durante as safras de inverno e de verão

Realizou-se experimento em vinhedo comercial de 'Niagara Rosada' conduzido em Y sob telado plástico, na região produtora de Louveira (SP), objetivando avaliar as variáveis fitotécnicas (produção, massa e tamanho dos cachos) e fenológicas, durante as safras de verão e de inverno. A produção, a massa dos cachos, o comprimento e a largura dos cachos mostraram uma tendência de serem superiores na safra de verão em relação à de inverno. Os valores de produtividade estimada variaram entre 30 e 35 t.ha-1 durante as safras de verão e entre 20 a 22 t.ha-1 para as de inverno. A duração de ciclo na safra de inverno (125 dias) foi menor em comparação com a de verão (140 dias)

Design and development of a ubiquitous cancer care system: A collaborative communication among cancer community

Communication among cancer community (specifically patients, parents, and medical practitioners) has not been pervasively-supported.In response to that, this paper reports on a study that ensures communication among cancer community is supported with a ubiquitous communication model.The model is proposed to provide an alternative for the community to communicate; discussing among patients, parents, and medical practitioners.In particular, the system is important because the treatments for cancer mostly take a long time, and the entities in the community are normally closed, which leads to frequent communications. Furthermore, most of topics communicated among cancer community are only understood by themselves. Hence, the paper aims at discussing the design and development of respective prototype.An appropriate model is formed first; then the prototype development follows.The prototype is discussed at length in this paper.At the end, initial feedbacks from the cancer community prove that the designed prototype works well in supporting the communication among cancer community in a ubiquitous environment
