The geographic information systems (GIS) are great potential tools to support organizations management. The requirements for implantation and use of this system are computational (the hardware and software) and human resources. Due to the high cost of some systems and involvement of many professionals in the geoprocessment area, the implantation of these systems can become onerous. A possible solution to reduce costs is the development of geographic information systems capable to be remotely managed, through web interface and using free software and open source code tools. This work has for its objective the development of a multiusing system to publish georeferenced information to support management tasks. The system is based on a web visualization interface, made by free software and open source code tools; tools for data administration through web; platform independence in the client with web browser; database management system; tools to generate web maps to the InterNet and ways to create new queries through web. / Os sistemas de informações geográficas (SIG) são ferramentas de grande potencial para apoiar a gestão de organizações. A implantação e uso desses sistemas requerem, como requisitos fundamentais, recursos computacionais (hardware e software) e recursos humanos (pessoal qualificado). Devido ao custo elevado de alguns sistemas e envolvimento de muitos profissionais na área de geoprocessamento, a implantação destes sistemas pode se tornar onerosa. Uma possível solução para reduzir custos é o desenvolvimento de sistemas de informação geográfica capazes de serem administrados remotamente, através de interface web e da utilização de ferramentas de software livre e de código fonte aberto. Este trabalho tem por objetivo o desenvolvimento de um sistema multiusuário para publicação de informações georreferenciadas para apoio à tomada de decisões. O sistema criado está baseado em: interface de visualização para web, construído a partir de ferramentas de software livre e código fonte aberto; mecanismo para criação de novas consultas através da web; mecanismo de administração dos dados através da web; independência de plataforma no cliente com o uso de navegador web; sistema de gerenciamento de banco de dados e ferramenta para geração de mapas através da Internet (webmaps).

Pesquisas apontam vocabulários como uma fonte valorosa de informação sobre o projeto. Para entender a natureza e o potencial dos vocabulários, desenvolvemos um ferramental capaz de extraí-los a partir de código fonte. Explorando os dados estatisticamente, identificamos duas propriedades de vocabulários: tamanho, expresso como função de potência de LOC (Lines-Of-Code); e a repetição de seus termos, que se ajusta a uma distribuição log-normal. Vocabulários, bem como suas propriedades e operações foram formalizadas baseadas no conceito de multisets. O ferramental de extração e a formalização viabilizaram cooperações científicas sobre a utilidade de vocabulário sem atividades de manutenção. Esse conhecimento acumulado revelou que vocabulário pouco foi explorado como insumo à modelagem de conhecimento de código. Desenvolvemos então uma abordagem para identificar especialistas de código cujo conhecimento é definido pela similaridade existente entre vocabulários das entidades e dos desenvolvedores. Comparamos a precisão e cobertura da nossa abordagem com de duas outras: baseada em commits e baseada em percentual de LOC modificadas. Os resultados apontam que para indicar um único especialista, top-1, a nossa abordagem tem uma precisão menor, entre 29.9% e 10% que as abordagens de baseline. Já para indicar mais de um desenvolvedor especialista, até top-3, a nossa abordagem tem uma acurácia melhor de até 18.7% em relação as de baseline. Identificamos também que o conhecimento definido por similaridade quando combinado com um modelo baseado em autoria aumenta a capacidade de identificar especialistas, no R2 do modelo, em mais de 4 pontos percentuais. Concluímos que além de poder ser utilizado de forma isolada para modelar conhecimento de código e assim identificar especialistas, o vocabulário pode ser um componente adicional a modelos de conhecimento baseados em autoria e propriedade, já que capturam aspectos diferentes dos existentes nesse modelos. / Identifiers and comments from a source code are the software vocabulary. Research point vocabularies as a valuable source of information about the project. To understand we developed a tool that extract them from source code. Exploring the data statistically, we identify two vocabularies properties: vocabulary size, that is a power function of LOC (Lines-Of-Code) and the repetition of vocabulary terms that fits alog-normal distribution. Vocabulary as well as their properties and operations were formalized based on the concept of multisets. Extraction tool and formalization made possible scientific cooperation on usage of vocabulary in maintenance activities. This accumulated knowledge has shown that vocabulary was not explored as an input to code knowledge. Then we developed a code experts identification approach whose knowledge is defined by existing similarity between entities and developers vocabularies. We compared precision and recall with two baseline approaches: based on commits and based on percentage of modified LOC.The results show that to indicate a single specialist, top-1, our approach has alower precision, between 29.9% and 10%,than baseline approaches. More than one specialist-developer, up to top-3, our approach has better accuracy of up to 18.7% over those of the baselines. We also identify that the knowledge defined by similarity when combined with an authorship model enhances the ability to identify experts, R2 of the model, by more than 4 points. We conclude that vocabulary can be solely used to expertise, and thus identify experts. In addition, vocabulary can be an additional component for models based on authorship and ownership, since it captures different aspects from ones existing in these models.

A crescente demanda por biocombustíveis e a concorrência dos combustíveis fósseis torna necessária a otimização dos meios já existentes e o desenvolvimento de novas tecnologias para produção de biocombustíveis, principalmente em projetos envolvendo biorreatores e fotobiorreatores (FBR) industriais. A dinâmica dos fluidos computacional (CFD) vem sendo utilizada em vários trabalhos para o estudo de parâmetros fluidodinâmicos que podem influenciar no rendimento dos processos químicos envolvidos, como tensão de cisalhamento, perfis de velocidade, tempo de residência e a influência da geometria sobre esses parâmetros. Contudo, não existe ainda um número abrangente de trabalhos que utilize técnicas de otimização acopladas com a resolução numérica do problema fluidodinâmico. Em alguns estudos, algoritmos de otimização são utilizados para determinar os melhores coeficientes das reações químicas. No entanto, não há estudos, até o momento, que reportem a otimização multiobjetivo simultânea dos parâmetros geométricos e do escoamento aplicados a equipamentos da indústria sucro-energética. Neste contexto, o presente trabalho de pesquisa tem como objetivo contribuir para o avanço científico e tecnológico através da implementação de um software aberto (PyCFD-O) que permita o acoplamento CFD-otimização e o desenvolvimento das bases de uma metodologia de projeto otimizado bem como de operação de biorreatores e FBRs de escala industrial. O PyCFD-O foi testado em dois estudos de caso que podem ser estendidos a um fermentador contínuo e um FBR. Os parâmetros geométricos de ambos os reatores foram otimizados de forma a minimizar simultaneamente a tensão de cisalhamento e a variância da distribuição do tempo de residência. O software PyCFD-O mostrou-se robusto, revelando que o processo global de otimização realiza de fato a busca pela fronteira de Pareto. Além da obtenção das geometrias otimizadas, também foram discutidos a influência dos parâmetros geométricos na hidrodinâmica do escoamento em ambos os casos. / The growing demand for biofuels and its competition with fossil fuels create the need to optimize the existing resources and development of new technologies for production of biofuels, particularly in projects involving industrial bioreactors and photobioreactors (PBR). Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) has been used in several studies for the study of fluid dynamics parameters that can influence the performance of the chemical process involved, such as shear stress, velocity profiles, residence time and the influence of these parameters on the reactor geometry. However, there are lacks of studies that utilize optimization techniques coupled with the numerical resolution of the fluid dynamic problem. The use of optimization algorithms has been reported in some cases, but there have not been reports on studies combining the optimization of flow parameters and multiobjective algorithms to choose ideal geometric parameters applied to the equipment of the sugar-energy industry. In this context, this research project aims to contribute to the advancement of scientific and technological knowledge trhough the implementation of open source software (PyCFD-O) for the CFD-optimization coupling and the development of the bases of a methodology for optimal design and operation of industrial scale bioreactors and PBR. The PyCFD-O software was tested in two case studies with characteristics that can be extended to a continuos fermenter and PBR. The geometric parameters of both reactors were simultaneously optimized in order to minimize the shear stress and the variance of residence time distribuition. The PyCFD-O software showed robustness, revealing that overall optimization process actually performs the search of Pareto frontier. In addition to the geometry optimization, the influence of the geometrical parameters of the hydrodynamic of the flow was discussed in both case studies.

We address the task of mapping a given domain model (e.g., an industry-standard reference model) for a given domain (e.g., ERP), with the source code of an independently developed application in the same domain. This has applications in improving the understandability of an existing application, migrating it to a more flexible architecture, or integrating it with other related applications. We build on a previous approach, which uses relationships among source code elements for improving the precision of the mapping process. We extend this approach by considering relationships among domain model elements in addition to relationships among source code elements, and also by stating the mapping process as an optimization problem. We have implemented our approach, and compared it with the previous approach. We show that our approach gives significantly better precision as well as recall than the previous approach when applied on a real industry-standard domain model and an open-source application.

This master's thesis describes the design and implementation of optimizations in the middle-end part of a retargetable decompiler developed by AVG Technologies. The purpose of these optimizations is to improve readability of the produced source code and improve existing optimizations in the back-end part. In the introduction, basic information about reverse engineering and decompilation is provided. Then, a description of state of the retargetable decompiler before this work is given. After that, the main part of this work is presented, which describes the design and implementation of the proposed optimizations. Then, the techniques that were used for testing are described. This description is followed by a summary of the achieved results. The present work is concluded by a discussion of possible future development.

The purpose of this thesis is to design and implement tools for support of a snapshot and a rollback for configuration files on the GNU/Linux distribution. The set of the tools enables an automatic/periodical saving of the configuration files into the selected placement. The creation of backups reacts to file events by watching the changes with kernel subsystem inotify. Tools are enabling to return to the selected backup. The way of the backup actualization is configurable. This tool permits the data comparison from selected backups, to show the differences in configurations and eventually to manage a merge among actual and selected backup. Tools also allows a comparison of a configurations of one client or configurations among clients, and to display the mutual differences, eventually to manage their merge.

The world is becoming more and more digitized which in turn puts pressure on existing applications and systems to be able to handle large quantities of data. And  in some cases, that data also needs to be operated in secure and isolated environments. To address these needs, a new category  of databases has emerged, by the name of NewSQL. The downside of this new category is that it still remains unexplored in some areas, such as how each database under that category performs towards each other, or even towards databases belonging to other categories. One major aspect, in terms of performance is latency, since it affects the overall user-experience. In order to clear up some of the unexplored areas within NewSQL, two databases were studied in the context of their latency performance: CockroachDB and Vitess. The study was divided into two main parts. The first one, was a quantitative study, which was about gathering data on how each database performed in terms of latency when serving the create, read, update, and delete-operations. No clear differences in latency were found for the create- and read-operations. While the results for update- and delete-operations showed significant differences where Vitess had lower latency than CockroachDB.  The second part of this study was a qualitative study, dedicated to analyze and inspect each database architecture and source code. The intention was to identify potential factors that may affect latency performance. The outcome from the analysis was that three main factors could be identified. The first identified factor is that CockroachDB had a layered architecture and that it needed to translate SQL queries into a set of key-value operations. The second one is that the databases makes use of different storage engines, which in turn can have differences in performance. The third and final identified factor is that MySQL, which was integrated with Vitess, had existed for a longer period of time compared to CockroachDB. Which indicates that the database probably has been more optimized over the years.
