Arbitragem no futebol: nível de autoestima dos árbitros e árbitros assistentes

TCC (graduação)- Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina. Centro de Desportos. Educação Física.A arbitragem é o elemento fundamental para o bom desenvolvimento de qualquer modalidade esportiva. O objetivo deste estudo é apresentar uma análise da autoestima dos árbitros e árbitros assistentes de futebol que compõem o quadro da LIFF no ano de 2016. Trata-se de uma pesquisa descritiva do tipo exploratória, diagnóstica de campo. A amostra foi constituída por 21 sujeitos, sendo eles árbitros e árbitros assistentes da LIFF, todos em ativa atuação pela liga. O instrumento utilizado para a coleta de dados foi a escala de autoconhecimento, desenvolvida por Rosenberg (1973), esta escala compreende 10 questões distribuídas em 6 itens combinados. Para análise dos dados foi utilizado o programa estatístico Excel. Os resultados demonstraram que os árbitros e os árbitros assistentes não diferiram estatisticamente em relação ao grau de autoestima. É possível observar que tanto árbitros como árbitros assistentes possuem autoestima em grau excelente, seguido de grau alto. Uma autoestima excelente ou alta é uma condição básica e imprescindível para a uma boa atuação da equipe de arbitragem

PSiS Mobile

In this paper, we present a state of the art on applications of mobile devices to support decision of a tourist running on a trip. We focus on two types of applications, tourism recommendation and tourism guide, making a brief description of the main characteristics of each one of them. We also refer the main problems encountered on the development of applications for mobile devices, and present PSiS (Personalized Sightseeing Tours Recommendation System) Mobile, our proposal to a mobile recommendation and planning support system, which is designed to provide an effective support during the tourist visit, providing contextaware information and recommendations about places of interest (POI) to visit, based on tourist preferences and his current context

A first approach towards pervasive computing using current tools: a real example

The paper presents the real implementation of a system that empowers the traveling professional through the use of current tools and mobile platforms. A book selling system was developed and deployed in a server together with Pocket PC 2003 enabled PDA systems. The global vision of such systems is given and the current implementation is also presented

Tourism mobile and recommendation systems - a state of the art

Recommendation systems have been growing in number for the last fifteen years. To evolve and adapt to the demands of the actual society, many paradigms emerged giving birth to even more paradigms and hybrid approaches. Mobile devices have also been under an incredible growth rate in every business area, and there are already lots of mobile based systems to assist tourists. This explosive growth gave birth to different mobile applications, each having their own advantages and disadvantages. Since recommendation and mobile systems might as well be integrated, this work intends to present the current state of the art in tourism mobile and recommendation systems, as well as to state their advantages and disadvantages

Personalized sightseeing tours support using mobile devices

In this paper, we present PSiS (Personalized Sightseeing Tours Recommendation System) Mobile. PSiS Mobile is our proposal to a mobile recommendation and planning support system, which is designed to provide effective support during the tourist visit with context-aware information and recommendations about places of interest (POI), exploiting tourist preferences and context

DysWebxia: making texts more accessible for people with dyslexia

Alrededor del 10% de la población mundial tiene dislexia, un trastorno de aprendizaje que afecta a las habilidades de lectoescritura. Aunque la dislexia tiene un origen neurológico, mediante ciertas modificaciones en los textos podemos conseguir que éstos sean más accesibles para este colectivo. En este trabajo presentamos DysWebxia, un modelo público que integra recomendaciones de diseño textual y técnicas de procesamiento del lenguaje natural. El modelo está fundamentado en los resultados de nuestras investigaciones llevadas a cabo con personas con dislexia usando metodologías de evaluación de interacción hombre-máquina como eye-tracking. Asimismo presentamos las integraciones actuales del modelo en diferentes aplicaciones de software de lectura.About 10% of the world population has dyslexia, a learning disability affecting reading and writing. Even if dyslexia is neurological in origin, certain text modifications can make texts more accessible for people with dyslexia. We present DysWebxia, a public model that integrates our findings from research conducted with this target group by using natural language processing strategies and human computer interaction evaluation techniques such as eye-tracking. This model alters content and presentation of the text to make it more readable. We also present the current integrations of DysWebxia in different reading software applications.Esta investigación ha sido parcialmente financiada por la beca predoctoral FI de la Generalitat de Catalunya

Functional Renormalization Group flows on Friedman-Lema\^{\i}tre-Robertson-Walker backgrounds

We reanalyze the construction of the gravitational functional renormalization group equation tailored to the Arnowitt-Deser-Misner formulation emphasizing its connection to the covariant formulation. The results obtained from projecting the renormalization group flow onto the Einstein-Hilbert action are reviewed in detail and we provide a novel example illustrating how the formalism may be connected to the Causal Dynamical Triangulations approach to quantum gravity.Comment: 14 pages, 2 figure

Recommendation & mobile systems - a state of the art for tourism

Recommendation systems have been growing in number over the last fifteen years. To evolve and adapt to the demands of the actual society, many paradigms emerged giving birth to even more paradigms and hybrid approaches. These approaches contain strengths and weaknesses that need to be evaluated according to the knowledge area in which the system is going to be implemented. Mobile devices have also been under an incredible growth rate in every business area, and there are already lots of mobile based systems to assist tourists. This explosive growth gave birth to different mobile applications, each having their own advantages and disadvantages. Since recommendation and mobile systems might as well be integrated, this work intends to present the current state of the art in tourism mobile and recommendation systems, as well as to state their advantages and disadvantages
