Boomer is a machine that is developed and produced by Atlas Copco Rock Drills AB, which is used for underground mining and tunneling. It is a blast-hole drilling rig equipped with drills that are attached to the arms, called booms, which the rig holds. The machine is controlled and monitored by Atlas Copco’s Rig Control System (RCS), which consists of a number of intelligent units connected in a CAN-net. When developing software for the RCS, a simulator that makes it possible to run the software on an ordinary desktop PC is used. The problem is that there is no intuitive way to see how the booms are oriented, while positioning. Therefore it is desirable to have a 3D visualization of the rig, with focus on the booms, which can be used alongside the simulator to get immediate feedback about the movements of the booms. This report describes the process of developing an application that handles communication with the simulator and the 3D visualization. / Boomer är en maskin som utvecklas och produceras av Atlas Copco Rock Drills AB. Maskinen används vid gruvbrytning och tunnelkonstruktion. Boomer är en spränghålsborrigg som är utrustad med borrar vilka är monterade på riggens armar, kallade bommar. En Boomer övervakas och kontrolleras av Atlas Copcos kontrollsystem, RCS, som är ett system bestående av intelligenta enheter sammankopplade i ett CAN-nät. Vid utveckling av mjukvara till RCS används en simulator som gör det möjligt att köra mjukvaran på en vanlig PC. Problemet är att det inte finns något intuitivt sätt att se hur bommarna är riktade medans de blir positionerade. Därför är det önskvärt med en 3D visualisering av borriggen, med fokus på dess boomar, som kan användas tillsammans med simulatorn för att ge en direkt återkoppling av boomarnas förflyttning. Denna rapport beskriver utvecklingsprocessen för en applikation som hanterar kommunikationen med simulatorn och 3D visualiseringen.

Failures in networks that reside in business environments cause harm to organizations depending on them. Every minute of inoperativety is hurtful and as a network adminstrator you want to minimize the rates of failures as well as the time of inoperation. Therefore, a fruitful network monitoring system is of great interest for such organizations. This bachelor’s thesis is the outcome of a pre-study performed on behalf of MIC Nordic and sought to advice them in the implementation of a new monitoring system. The aim of this study was to investigate how a Network Operation Center (NOC) can be implemented in an existing monitoring environment, to integrate current monitoring systems to a central point for monitoring. This study takes an holitstic approach to network management and the research can be divided into two main categories: Communication between network components and Presentation of information. Our process involves an analysis of the environment of MIC Nordic and an in depth inquiry on the current state of network monitoring and interface design. The study then culminates in the implementation of a prototype. The prototype serves in first hand as a research tool to collect experience and empirical evidence to increase the crediblity of our conclusions. It is also an attempt of demonstrating the complete process behind developing a NOC, that we believe can fill a gap among the previous research in the field. From our results you can expect a prototype with functionality for monitoring network components and a graphical user interface (GUI) for displaying information. The results are designed towards solving the specific network management problem that was given and the environment that it concerns. This pre-study suggests that the best solution for implementing a NOC in the given environment is to use SNMP for communication. From an investigation on how to present network management information in a effective way we propose to follow a user-centered approach and to utilize human perception theory in the design process. The authors recommend further research that maintain the holistic approach but applies more quantitative methods to broaden the scope. / Störningar i nätverk som används i företagsmiljöer skapar problem för organisationer som är beroende av dess funktion. Varje minut som nätverket är verkningslöst är ofördelaktigt och som nätverksadministratör så vill du minimera antal störningar och tiden då nätverket är verkningslöst. Ett effektivt nätverksövervaknings system är därf ör av stort intresse f ör organisationer beroende av ett funktionerande nätverk. Den här rapporten är resultatet av en förundersökning som utfördes på uppdrag av MIC Nordic, för att ge en rekommendation om hur ett nytt övervakningssystem för deras nätverk kan implementeras. Målet med studien var att undersöka hur ett Network Operation Center (NOC) kan implementeras i en existerande miljö för att integrera nuvarande övervakningssystem till en central punkt för övervakning. Den här studien tar ett holistiskt grepp om nätverksövervakning och undersökningen kan delas in i två primära kategorier: Kommunikation mellan nätverkskomponenter och Presentation av information. Vår process involverar en analys av MIC Nordics miljö och en djupgående utredning om nätverksövervakning samt gränssnitts design. Studien kulminerar i en implementaion av en prototyp. Prototypen är i f örsta hand ett undersökningsverktyg för att samla på oss erfarenhet och empiriska belägg för att öka trovärdigheten i våra slutsatser. Prototypen utgör även ett försök av författarna att demonstrera den kompletta proceduren av att utveckla en NOC, avsikten är att det kan fylla ett behov bland tidigare avhandligar i ämnet. Resultatet innehåller en prototyp med funktionalitet för att övervaka nätverkskomponenter samt ett grafiskt gränssnitt för att visa informationen. Resultaten är designade mot en lösning som är specifik för problemet som gavs av MIC Nordic och deras miljö. Denna förstudie proponerar att den bästa lösningen för att implementera en NOC i den givna miljön är att använda SNMP för kommunikation. Efter en granskning av hur man kan presentera information som rör nätverksövervakning på ett effektivt sätt så lanserar författarna en användarcentrerad metod som utnyttjar läran om hur människor uppfattar saker och ting. Författarna uppmuntrar vidare undersökningar som bibehåller det holistiska greppet men som applicerar mer kvantitativa metoder för att utöka undersökningens omfattning.

Sofiaängen är en psykoterapeutisk dagverksamhet och skola som ligger på Södermalm i Stockholm. Sofiaängen riktar sig till ungdomar mellan 13–20 år med psykiska och sociala problem. Sofiaängen var i behov av ett fullständigt journalsystem för att kunna underlätta deras arbetsrutiner med bokföring av patientbehandlingar. Då deras nuvarande system inte är färdigställd och behövs vidareutvecklas. Detta ledde till att arbetet delades upp i två delar, först att ta fram ett förslag på en generell processmodell för hantering av en icke färdigställda IT-system till akademin och därefter att leverera ett fullt fungerande journalsystem åt Sofiaängen. Examensarbetet har resulterat till att man har tagit fram ett förslag på generell processmodell för hantering av icke färdigställda projekt samt ett fullt fungerande journalsystem åt Sofiaängen som kan sättas direkt i drift. / Sofiaängen is a psychotherapeutic day school and school located at Södermalm in Stockholm. Sofiaängen is aimed at young people between 13-20 years with mental and social problems. Sofiaängen needed a complete journal system to facilitate their work routines with records of patient treatments. Their current system is not completed and needed further development. Thus, the work was divided into two parts, first to develop a proposal for a general process model for managing an unfinished IT system to the academy and then to deliver a fully functioning journal system for Sofiaängen. The thesis has resulted in a proposal for a general process model for handling unfinished projects as well as a fully functioning journal system for Sofiaängen, which can be put into operation immediately.

This thesis examines trends in the academic and professional literature around immutable data and its relationship with declarative User Interfaces (UIs). Immutable data types are preferred by academic authors due to their increased safety, and commercial languages are increasing their support for them over time. More recently, declarative UIs are an exploding topic in industry, and these are related, although not as closely as one would expect. Declarative programming tries to focus on highlevel requirements, not low-level details. It is easier to do this if functions have no side effects, and immutable data is a guaranteed way of achieving this. To highlight this property, the declarative UI framework Flutter advertises “stateless widgets”, but their existence puts in highlights the lack of this property in most widgets. Consequently, we ask whether it is feasible to build a Graphical User Interface (GUI) toolkit using purely immutable data structures. To accomplish this objective, a purely immutable GUI toolkit is sketched and partially developed using Elm, a purely functional language in which all data structures are immutable. To understand the requirements of a GUI toolkit, we categorize and put in historical context, different design paradigms for UIs and relate them to core software-design principles. Leading toolkits allow developers to visualize and manage multiple views of their interfaces, including the view hierarchy, layout, interface to business logic, and focus management. By creating a concrete example, the research aims to provide insight into the limitations of utilizing purely immutable data within a GUI framework and suggests future work to mitigate these. / Thesis / Master of Science (MSc)

Preem verkar inom drivmedelsbranschen som styrs av en mycket hög omsättning med förhållandevis små marginaler. Det är därför viktig med en väl fungerande lagerkontroll. Det man idag är ute efter är en ökad precision i lageruppföljningen och därmed behövs ett nytt systemstöd till detta. Jag fick i min roll hos Preem uppgiften att titta närmre på GUI och processerna bakom. Det resulterade i denna rapport med ett framtaget förslag på användargränssnittet till det nya systemet och dess affärsprocesser som är kopplat till detta. Arbetet fokuserar på hur de två framställs i förhållande till varandra och vilka metoder som används för att konstruera dessa. Arbetet inkluderar illustrationer av as-is och to-be processmodeller enligt BPMN specifikation, wireframes och en sitemap. Denna rapport visar ett förslag på ett sammanfört system och ett intuitivare GUI med nya processer bakom, för just Preem, och hur balansgången går mellan att skapa affärsprocesser och ett grafiskt användargränssnitt ur varandra, beroende av vilka som är involverade i projektet. / Preem is a Swedish company that operates in the oil industry, which is controlled by very high sales and with relatively small margins. It’s therefore essential with a well working stock control. Today they are looking for a better way of monitoring the stock with a higher precision and therefore they need a new system for that. My role at Preem was to take a closer look at the GUI and the processes behind that. It resulted in this thesis that includes the user interface for the new system and the business processes that are linked to this. The work will focus on how these two methods are produced in relation to each other, and the methods that are used to construct them. The thesis includes illustrations of as-is and to-be process models of the BPMN specification, wireframes and a sitemap. This report shows a proposal of an integrating system and an intuitive GUI with new processes, at Preem, and how the balance is between creating business processes and a graphical user interface out of each other, depending on the people who are involved in the project.

The Emergency department at Södersjukhuset currently suffers from very long waiting times. This is partly due to problems within visualisation and mapping of patient data and other information that is fundamental in the handling of patients at the Emergency department. This led to a need in the creation of improvement suggestions to the visualisation of the patient flow between the Emergency department and the Gastroenterology department at Södersjukhuset. During the project, a simulated graphical user interface was created with the purpose of mimicking Södersjukhusets current patient flow. This simulated user interface would visualise the patient flow between the Emergency department and the Gastroenterology department. Additionally, a patient symptoms estimation algorithm was implemented to guess the likelihood of a patient being admitted to a department. The result shows that there are many possible improvements to Södersjukhusets current hospital information system, TakeCare, that would facilitate the care coordinators work and in turn lower the waiting times at the Emergency department. / Akutmottagningen på Södersjukhuset har i dagsläget väldigt långa väntetider. Detta beror till viss del utav problem inom visualiseringen och kartläggning av patient data och annan fundamental information för att hantera patienter på akutmottagningen. Detta ledde till att det finns ett behov att skapa förbättringsförslag på visualiseringen av patientflödet mellan akutmottagningen och gastroenterologiavdelningen på Södersjukhuset. Under projektets gång skapades ett simulerat användargränssnitt med syfte att efterlikna Södersjukhusets nuvarande patientflöde. Denna lösning visualiserar patientflödet mellan akutmottagningen och gastroenterologiavdelningen. Dessutom implementerades en enkel sorteringsalgoritm som kan bedöma sannolikheten om en patient skall bli inlagd på en avdelning. Resultatet visar att det finns flera möjliga förbättringar i Södersjukhusets nuvarande elektroniska journalsystemet, TakeCare, som skulle underlätta vårdkoordinatorernas arbete och därmed sänka väntetiderna på akutmottagningen.

A failure in these applications can cause financial loss, so it is essential to ensure their quality. One way to achieve this goal is through software testing. Although the testing activities bring many benefits, they add cost to a software development project, which should be reduced. A strategy used for this is testing automation. Repetitive and error prone activities are strong candidates to be automated, among them we can mention the test cases generation. The Web Guitar tool enables the generation and execution of test cases from the structural model of Web application under test. This model presents problems related to its accuracy. Thus, this work proposes its evolution aiming to increase the number of generated test cases and improve their quality. As contribution, a new version of Web Guitar tool was implemented to sweep a web application identifying new GUI elements and visiting different instances of a same page in order to provide a more complete model. The results obtained in a case study performed with two Web applications, System to Support PPGI/UFAM and DiskTransito, provided evidence of the feasibility of this work, since the proposed tool (WG-Modified) contributed to the generation of a greater number of test cases for System to Support PPGI/UFAM, despite its execution time exceed the time calculated for the original tool. When analyzing the time required to generate each test case, WG-Modified was more efficient than its original version. However, the results of this study for the second application (DiskTransito) showed some problems and limitations that will be addressed in future works. / Aplicações Web estão presente em nossa rotina diária e são fundamentais em diversas áreas, tais como educação, saúde e entretenimento. Uma falha nessas aplicações pode ocasionar grandes perdas, portanto é essencial garantir a qualidade das mesmas. Uma forma de se alcançar esse objetivo é por meio do teste de software. Embora o teste de software traga inúmeros benefícios, ele acrescenta elevados custos ao projeto de desenvolvimento, que devem ser reduzidos. Uma estratégia utilizada para isso é a automação de teste. Atividades repetitivas e propensas a enganos são fortes candidatas a serem automatizadas, dentre elas podemos citar a geração de casos de teste. A ferramenta Web Guitar possibilita a geração e execução dos casos de teste, a partir do modelo estrutural da aplicação Web testada. Esse modelo apresenta problemas quanto a sua precisão. Assim, neste trabalho propõe-se sua evolução com o objetivo de aumentar o número de casos de teste gerados e melhorar a sua qualidade. Como resultado, foi implementada uma nova versão desta ferramenta que varre uma aplicação web identificando novos elementos de interface e visitando diferentes instâncias de uma mesma página com o intuito de prover um modelo mais completo. Os resultados do estudo de caso realizado com duas aplicações Web, Sistema de Apoio ao PPGI/UFAM e Disk Transito, forneceram indícios da viabilidade deste trabalho, visto que a ferramenta proposta (WG-Modificada) contribuiu para a geração de um número maior de casos de teste para o Sistema de Apoio ao PPGI/UFAM, apesar do seu tempo de execução ser superior ao tempo obtido pela versão original da ferramenta. Ao se analisar o tempo necessário para gerar cada caso de teste, verifica-se que a WG-Modificada foi mais eficiente que a versão original. Porém, os resultados do estudo para o Disk Transito evidenciaram problemas e limitações que serão tratados em trabalhos futuros
