The majority of feminicide cases are committed by the partner or former partner of the victim. This involves ongoing domestic abuses, threats or intimidation, sexual violence or situations in which women have less energy or resources than their partner. In addition, clinics, public hospitals or private health institutes have mental health evaluation processes, however, these flows are usually carried out in several sessions, which causes a delay in the diagnosis. In this article, a mobile application that supports psychologists or psychiatrists during the process of the psychological profile diagnosis is proposed. The system contains a questionnaire and psychological tests, in this way, based on the patient responses, indicators, and metrics, the psychological profile of the assailant is obtained as a result. The use of the system in 40 patients shows that the selection times and the psychological test qualification have improved, as well as the interpretation of the results and the total process of diagnosis, which, when obtained at opportune time, allows specialists to prevent the victim from a possible feminicide.

A raíz de la necesidad de los alumnos de odontología que empiezan a realizar prácticas preprofesionales y los inconvenientes que estos presentan al encontrar pacientes, tales como la desconfianza, la falta de compromiso, los gastos excesivos, entre otros, se creó la aplicación Dirané.

Mobilapplikationer till de datorliknande mobiltelefonerna kallade Smartphones är i dagsläget en expanderande marknad. Att utveckla en bra mobilapplikation ställer dock höga krav på utvecklaren. I den här rapporten genomförs en litteraturstudie för att ta fram en Utvecklingsprocess för utveckling av en business-to-businessinriktad mobilapplikation. Syftet med Utvecklingsprocessen är att den ska kunna användas som ett hjälpmedel under utvecklandet. Processen riktar sig framförallt till studenter och företag som inte har någon erfarenhet av att utveckla business-to-businessinriktade mobilapplikationer. Denna process tillämpas sedan praktiskt genom att ta fram en idé till en applikation. Detta för att kunna utvärdera processen med avseende på fyra utvärderingskriterier: Användarvänlighet, Inblick i slutanvändarens behov och problem, fasernas nödvändighet och om den Uppfyller sina syften. Resultatet visar att Utvecklingsprocessen tar upp viktiga aspekter vid utveckling av en mobilapplikation. Det är dock viktigt att hela tiden följa upp arbetet och återkoppla till processen. Detta för att uppdatera och förbättra mobilapplikationen då utvecklaren med stor sannolikhet kommer hitta nya problem och bättre lösningar under utvecklingens gång. Rapporten rekommenderar slutligen att utvecklaren anpassar Utvecklingsprocessen efter sina egna förutsättningar för att uppnå bästa resultat.

Master of Science / Department of Computing and Information Sciences / Mitchell L. Neilsen / The purpose of the project is to develop an Android application that is capable of detecting possible falls for the elderly. With the advancement of wireless communications, the world has become smarter and there has been increase in use of smart phones. Android, being an open source platform has made it simple for every individual to develop their own applications, which in turn can be used on Android devices. Falls among the elderly are a serious concern for both families as well as medical professionals, since falls are considered to be the eighth leading cause of death in the United States. Untreated fall injuries in adults 65 or older can result in serious risks and health complications, since 20% of falls require immediate medical attention and about one-tenth of the falls result in fractures. Thus, as mentioned, fall detection is a critical event requiring quick and accurate response, especially for elderly people living by themselves. This is the motivation behind developing an elderly support, which detects a fall and alerts the caretaker regarding the information. The elderly support is about tracking the person and notifying the caretaker if there is an occurrence. One of the main features of this Android application is that it notifies the caretaker with alert messages which contain all the necessary information. The alert messages contain useful information about the people in danger, such as his/her geo location and also corresponding directions on a map. In occasions of false alerts, the supervised person is given the ability to estimate the value of importance of a possible alert and to stop it before proceeding with further steps. This project is geared towards supporting the elderly. The mobile application is capable of detecting possible falls and through a user-friendly interface that can be used to alert relatives, doctors, and other people who take care of the elderly.

Master of Science / Department of Computing and Information Sciences / Daniel A. Andresen / Tutorials and Quiz Android Mobile application is an application which gives you brief tutorials on various programming languages and technologies to the user who has installed this application. It gives video tutorials and training on different technologies. The mobile application also contains sample code, interview questions, and answers. This application also conducts a quiz to the user who is interested in a particular technology for checking their knowledge on the subject. It has different levels like Basic Level and Advanced Level quiz. This application conducts a quiz in the form of multiple choice questions. After the completion of the quiz the application generates reports based on the quiz conducted. The user can also test their knowledge on those technologies based on a timed quiz, we can include the above technology questions in this application. We can give a time frame for each question and all the questions are to be answered in that specified time period. Say for example we can give 20 seconds to answer a question. If the user gives an incorrect answer, will be exited out of the quiz.

Master of Science / Department of Computing and Information Sciences / Daniel Andresen / Mobile application development is one of the recent trends in computing Industry. Among several existing platforms for mobile, Android is one of the largest platforms in the world that run in several smart phones and tablets from various manufacturers like Google, Motorola, Samsung, HTC etc. Android number game is a simple game application in android targeting the school children to train their mathematical skills and help them to think. The application presents a graphical user interface with several colored bubble balls moving in random directions each with a number on it. The numbers are generated randomly within a specified range. The application allows the user to burst a moving bubble by touching it. The user’s goal is to burst all the bubbles in the ascending order of numbers on them. The application contains multiple levels and the number of bubbles increase as the levels increase. Also, the complexity of the set of numbers on the bubbles increases with increasing levels. Three lives are given to clear all the levels of the game and scores are computed for every correct shot on the ball. Bonus points are also added for clearing every level. The application maintains the top 10 players with their scores.

The purpose of this research was to master several unfamiliar concepts and bring them together in one cohesive project. DroidCDF is an application for the Android operating system to create, write data to, and read data from netCDF format files. DroidCDF uses Unidata’s NetCDF Java Library and can write files in netCDF-3 format but read from any netCDF format files. As mobile devices become more powerful and commonplace, DroidCDF provides a convenient tool for researchers. An incremental methodology was applied; the application was built from a rough workflow to eventually a robust and fully functional program. The produced files are fully portable and can be used as the input for other applications. The application has been tested with several large netCDF files with varying conventions and has handled each one remarkably well. Upon submission of this thesis, DroidCDF will be released onto the open market.
