The application‟s usability test is also presented and its results are discussed and analyzed / Neste trabalho apresentamos a arquitetura e implementa??o do MyPersonal-EPG, um EPG personaliz?vel e com suporte a recomenda??es, constru?do sobre o middleware Ginga, que atende aos seguintes requisitos: (i) permitir aos usu?rios a montagem da sua pr?pria grade de programa??o, com base nas grades de programa??o de diversas emissoras; (ii) oferecer um mecanismo para sintonizar os devidos canais no momento em que os programas selecionados pelo usu?rio estiverem prestes a come?ar; (iii) permitir que os usu?rios selecionem categorias de programas desejadas; (iv) oferecer recomenda??es de programas, de forma s?ncrona e ass?ncrona, com base nas categorias selecionadas previamente pelos usu?rios; (v) permitir que os usu?rios modifiquem as op??es de configura??o; (vi) possibilitar a cria??o de diversas contas de usu?rios, a fim de permitir que cada usu?rio possa armazenar todas as suas informa??es de interesse. A avalia??o de usabilidade da aplica??o ? tamb?m apresentada e seus resultados s?o discutidos e analisados
