Rabies management can be described as successful only if examined through a human health perspective. Negating companion animal health outcomes in rabies management creates systemic failures as cats and dogs are significant within our society and bridge humans and wildlife in rabies transmission. A shifting pet ownership culture has created opportunities for increased rabies risk. This thesis applied the One Health concept to the rabies management system in an Ontario municipality. The One Health concept considers that the health of humans is inherently connected to the health of companion animals and their shared environment. A mixed methods design informed a visual conceptualization of the rabies management system. Factors influencing human and companion animal health outcomes were identified through multivariable logistic regression models. The human outcome of interest was the recommendation of rabies post-exposure prophylaxis after a potential rabies exposure by a companion animal; the companion animal outcomes were receiving a post-incident rabies vaccine, being euthanized for rabies testing and being placed under observation. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with private veterinarians to understand their perceived role in rabies management. Rabies management is more complex than linear interactions and processes that occur to protect human health. An explicit link between the human and companion animal health outcomes was found. Companion animal species appeared as an influential factor and indicates that ownership practices differ between cats and dogs. This implies that veterinarians are not effectively leveraged as the link between public health and pet owners. Indeed, veterinarian’s approach their rabies management roles based on their prioritization of the seriousness of rabies compared to the risk. Through the application of One Health thinking to the municipal rabies management system, it is clear that there is a public-private divide where mitigating human rabies exposures conflicts with the prevention of rabies in companion animals.

Na minha experiência profissional na assistência, em uma instituição hospitalar da rede estadual de saúde do Rio de Janeiro especializada em cardiologia, cuidando de crianças com cardiopatias congênitas, vivenciei algumas situações decorrentes da falta de orientação dos acompanhantes. A partir de então, surgiram alguns questionamentos quanto a que tipo de informação esses acompanhantes recebem quando chegam, a saber, que a criança será submetida a uma cirurgia e o que pode vir a acontecer com ela. Desse modo, o enfermeiro ao recepcioná-los na instituição hospitalar precisa atentar para alguns aspectos tais como: o acompanhante entender o que se passa com a criança desde a condição de saúde até o procedimento cirúrgico; além do que poderá ocorrer naquele contexto da internação. Nesse sentido, tracei como objeto de estudo o atendimento no ambulatório de cirurgia cardíaca pediátrica, e o objetivo de compreender a expectativa do acompanhante que vem para o atendimento no ambulatório de cirurgia cardíaca. Dessa forma, foi possível a apreensão do típico da ação do acompanhante que traz a criança ao atendimento no ambulatório de cirurgia cardíaca. Trata-se de estudo de caráter exploratório-descritivo, do tipo qualitativo, baseado fundamentalmente na fenomenologia sociológica de Alfred Schutz. Os sujeitos foram as acompanhantes de crianças que realizaram cirurgia cardíaca e que retornaram para a revisão ambulatorial. A entrevista fenomenológica foi o instrumento utilizado para a captação das falas desses sujeitos, que, na relação face a face, possibilitou a descrição de suas experiências vivenciadas e a apreensão do típico da ação desses atores sociais. Para tanto foi utilizada a seguinte questão orientadora que permitiu a captação do motivo para: Quais as suas expectativas quanto ao atendimento quando vem ao ambulatório? Assim, o típico da ação que surgiu das falas das acompanhantes de criança que se submeteram à cirurgia cardíaca é obter uma boa notícia. Essas mulheres têm em comum ter um filho que se submeteu à cirurgia cardíaca e essa vivência faz com que algumas delas tenham a preocupação de ter que passar por isto novamente, ou seja, seu filho realizar outra cirurgia cardíaca. Elas esperam que isto não ocorra, ou então, que o intervalo entre as consultas se prolongue para que o retorno delas à unidade hospitalar seja cada vez menor. Acredito que uma abordagem da enfermagem na consulta ambulatorial poderá diminuir as tensões criadas nessas acompanhantes pela expectativa de saber se a criança vai reinternar para realizar uma cirurgia ou não, e os esclarecimentos quanto aos cuidados domiciliares que podem auxiliar na tranqüilidade dessas mulheres. Deste modo, penso que o enfermeiro deva realizar a assistência à saúde centrada na criança e na pessoa que a acompanha ressaltando que o cuidar envolve todo o contexto entre a criança e o que está ao seu redor, ou seja, a acompanhante. / In my professional experience in assistance, in a state hospital specialized in Cardiology, taking care of children with congenital cardiopathy, I lived situations that occurred from less orientation to the companions. Then, surged some questions about what kind of information this companion receive when they know that the child will suffer a surgery and what can happen to them. Thus, when the nurse receive them, in the hospital, has to pay attention in some aspects as: the companion understand what happen with the child since the health condition of the child until the surgery procedure, besides what can occur in the hospitalization context. In this sense I traced as the object the study of the ambulatory of pediatric cardiopathy surgery, and the objective to comprehend the companion expectative that come from the attending of pediatric surgery cardiopathy. In this way, was possible the apprehensions of the typical actions of the companion that brought the child to the attending of cardiac surgery ambulatory. It is a study with descriptive - exploratory character, of qualitative type, fundamentally based on the Sociological Phenomenology of Alfred Schutz. The subjects were the companions of the children that suffered cardiac surgery and returned from the ambulatory review. The phenomenological interview was the tool utilized to suck in the speeches from this subjects, that in the face to face relation was enabled to comprehend the descriptions of the vivencial experiences and to apprehend the typical action of this social actors. Therefore utilized the orientation question that permitted the capitation of purpose-for: Which are your expectative for the attending when you come back to the ambulatory? Then the typical action grew up from the words of the child companions that suffered a cardiac surgery is to obtain a good news. These women has in common to have a child that suffered a cardiac surgery and this vivencial makes them with the preoccupation that must pass the same situation again, otherwise, the child has to suffer another cardiac surgery. They hope that this does not occur or the gap between the meetings become more distant and the return of them to the hospital become minor. I believe that the nursing approach at the nursing meeting can make less the tensions created in this companions from the expectative of knowing that the child would hospitalize to do another surgery or not, and the information about the homecare that can help them to make more tranquilized. Thus I think that the nurse must realize the health assistance centered on the child and the person who accompany jutting out that the care involves the entire context among the child and what is around, or else, the companion.

The object of this thesis is to explore the connections between race, gender and equestrianism. This aim stems from personal experiences of becoming a “horse girl” in a Swedish horsebackriding context, which indeed is lined with racialized and gendered norms. I am inclined to understand how equestrianism, i.e. horseback riding practices and communities, often comes to be considered as white and (un)obtainable for some and not others. Through interviews with nine equestrians located in the United States and observations in their stable environments, the thesis seek to investigate how gender and racial norms appear and materialize, and thus shape the interviewed participants lived experiences in horse human environments. Through a theoretical framework of Sara Ahmed’s elaboration on phenomenology, Karen Barad’s term intra-action and Donna Haraway’s figuration companion species, the thesis discusses the multi-layered and complex ways in which race and gender is produced in and produces equestrian spaces and practices. The analysis shows that equestrianism is habitually oriented around whiteness, shaping the proximity between some (and not other) human and horse bodies in the regional landscape where the participants reside. Horses are both organized in and organize the contours of the city, entangled in the politics of racial segregation and the materialization of classed environments and neighborhoods. Equestrian communities, especially those that practice the disciplines of dressage and show jumping, repeatedly welcome and extend certain human (and non-human) bodies while stopping and questioning others. Further, different equestrian spaces materializes in differentiating and multi-sensoric ways, making certain color schemes, tactile sensations of textures and scents appear as racialized and gendered, and in turn forms the premises of belonging. The thesis then displays the political and affective connections between human and non-human bodies, objects and rooms in the specific context of equestrianism, and argues that such aspects must be understood as co-produced rather than separate entities. The discussion thus complicates binary dichotomies such as nature and culture, human and non-human and matter and discourse, showing how such aspects instead are entangled in the production of equestrianism and racialized and gendered “difference”.

O câncer, como toda doença que ameaça a vida, atinge, além do doente, todos aqueles que lhe são próximos. Este estudo teve por objetivo compreender como é ser companheiro da mulher com câncer de mama, na perspectiva dele. Foi utilizada uma metodologia qualitativa, fundamentada no referencial teórico-metodológico da Psicologia Fenomenológico-Existencial, fundamentada no pensamento de Martin Heidegger. Participaram dez companheiros de mulheres com câncer de mama que frequentavam um núcleo de reabilitação de mastectomizadas. No período de junho a novembro de 2014, foram realizadas entrevistas fenomenológicas, individuais, audiogravadas, a partir de uma questão norteadora: \"Como tem sido para você ser companheiro de uma mulher com câncer de mama?\" As entrevistas foram transcritas de forma literal e na íntegra, constituindo o corpus de análise. Nas sucessivas leituras empreendidas, focalizou-se o fenômeno pesquisado em busca das unidades de significado que foram agrupadas dando origem aos eixos temáticos. Foram respeitados os preceitos éticos para pesquisas com seres humanos, contidos na Resolução 466/2012 do Conselho Nacional de Saúde. Os resultados foram apresentados em sete unidades significativas: Vivendo o impacto do diagnóstico e uma desestabilização emocional; Compartilhando o cuidado à mulher com outros familiares; Compartilhando o enfrentamento da doença na relação a dois; O enfrentamento da doença e seus efeitos sobre a intimidade do casal; No horizonte do tempo, o aceno da sombra da morte; Sofrimento psicológico dos companheiros; Suporte social utilizado pelos companheiros. Os resultados demonstraram que os companheiros sofreram e se disponibilizaram ao cuidado para com suas mulheres, desde o recebimento da notícia da doença até o dia da entrevista. Também reconheceram seus sofrimentos pelas dificuldades enfrentadas, mas não buscaram nenhuma ajuda profissional para cuidar deles próprios / Cancer, like any disease that threatens life, reaches beyond the sick, those who are closest to him. The purpose of this study is to understand how to be companion of women with breast cancer, in his perspective. A qualitative methodology, grounded on the theoretical framework of Phenomenological-Existential Psychology, based in the thought of Martin Heidegger was used. A total of ten partners of women with breast cancer who attended one mastectomy rehabilitation center. In the period from June to November 2014, phenomenological interviews, individual audio recorded were carried out, from a guiding question: \"How has it been for you to be companion of a woman with breast cancer?\" The interviews were transcribed literally and in full, constituting the corpus of analysis. Undertaken in successive readings, focused to the phenomenon researched in search of the meaning units were grouped giving rise to the themes. The ethical principles were respected for research with human beings contained in the National Health Council Resolution 466/2012. The results were presented in seven major units: Living the impact of diagnosis and emotional instability; Sharing the care of women with other family members; Sharing coping with the disease in couple\'s relationship; The coping with the disease and its effect on the couple\'s intimacy; In the time horizon, the beckon of the shadow of death; Psychological suffering of companions; Social support used by companions. The results showed that the companions suffered and made themselves available to care for their women from receiving the news of the disease until the day of the interview. They also acknowledged their suffering by the difficulties encountered, but did not seek any professional help to take care of themselves

Later, the usage of the three is studied by developing the modulator of the ATSC 3.0 system with SDR technique and the GNURadio Companion (GRC). In order to prove the integrity of the modulator implementation, the transmitted signal is tested with the Dektec receiver, composed by the DTA-2131 hardware and the Atsc3Xpress software. All the codes are developed in C++ language and the tests made in GRC. Such tests prove the integrity of the implementation since the receiver was able to demodulate the signal correctly, and that the SDR platform is a suitable tool for prototyping and researching digital TV transmission systems. / Este projeto apresenta as definições e características de duas tecnologias recentes na comunidade científica e de telecomunicações: o Advanced Television Systems Committee (ATSC) 3.0; o Rádio Definido por Software, do inglês Software Defined Radio (SDR).

Ny teknologi har skapat nya möjligheter inom utvecklingen av teknologi för äldre. Kunskap behövs om de äldres behov och vilka situationer i vardagen som skulle kunna underlättas av teknik för att minska de äldres beroende av andra människor. I utvecklingen av ett interaktivt teknologiskt hjälpmedel en så kallad virtual companion har en etnografisk studie gjorts för att kartlägga vardagen på ett äldreboende och interaktionen mellan vårdgivare och vårdtagare. Dessa har strukturerats upp i interaktionsmönster för att bli ett underlag till funktioner som skall implementeras i hjälpmedlet.

The newly released Google Chromecast has generated an increasing amount of interest for so called second-screen experiences in the market. Although the technology behind such experiences has existed for a couple of years, end users are now truly starting to grasp the concept and benefits of multi-screen. The company, at which the thesis was performed at, provides a cloud-based messaging solution for Internet connected devices, which enables multi-screen use cases. To increase the amount of supported platforms in the solution, new technologies frequently needs to be integrated. In this thesis I have performed an exploratory research & development project with the aim to integrate the Google Cast technology in this multi-screen solution. The fundamental difference in how the two ecosystems were designed resulted in a companion device framework that acted as a wrapper over the technologies. The framework was implemented on the Android platform together with a set of demo applications. The proposed solution should be seen as a starting point for integrating different multi-screen technologies within a single companion device framework. While combining these technologies, a fundamental difference in the user experience between them became apparent. The Google Cast ecosystem relies on the companion device as the interaction point for the end user, whereas television (TV) applications usually have the main interaction point on the actual TV itself via a dedicated remote control. Having this kind of inconsistency within the same set of applications increases the risk of confusion among end users. Therefore I suggest that development of such multi-screen experiences, that combines these technologies, should strive for a high consistency throughout the whole user experience, independent of platforms and technology.

Today's living room context offers more and more possibilities when it comes to when and how to interact with the television and media content offerings. Buzzwords such as "TV Everywhere" is something that both hardware manufacturers, content providers and television networks are pursuing to great lengths. At the core of such marketing schemes is the availability of platform-independent content consumption. In a Utopian setting, the end-user should never have to worry if he or she is currently using a smart TV, tablet, phone or computer to view a video or photos, play music or play games. Taking the concept even further, the devices should also be able to connect and communicate with each other seamlessly. Having for example a television set (first screen) controlled by a mobile phone (second screen) is commonly referred to as companion device interaction and is what this thesis has investigated. More specifically, a way of discovering and launching a first screen application from a second screen application using the zero configuration discovery protocol named DIAL has been implemented into a cross-platform messaging solution. A case study was conducted to gather data about the system and its context as well as what was needed of the framework in terms of architecture design, use cases and implementation details. A proof of concept application was developed for Android that used the proposed framework, showcasing the ease of use and functionality presented in integrating DIAL into such a solution. Since DIAL is so well-documented, easy to understand and is becoming one of the industry standards among consumer electronic manufacturers in terms of device discovery, I believe it should become a standard for so called zero configuration companion device interactivity.
