La recepción de Homero en Alejandría: la edición homérica de Aristarco
Authors: Schironi Francesca
Published: August 2020

El artículo discute la recepción de Homero en la Alejandría helenística, particularmente en la obra de Aristarco de Samotracia. Después de analizar brevemente cómo la edición de Aristarco tuvo un impacto en el texto homérico que todavía leemos en la actualidad, el artículo se enfoca en el método y los principios seguidos por Aristarco en su trabajo sobre la Ilíada. A través del análisis de algunos ejemplos específicos, muestra cómo las propias ideas de Aristarco sobre Homero tuvieron un efecto en el texto homérico que produjo, lo que plantea la cuestión de la recepción de un autor literario por los filólogos y los problemas relacionados con ella.
El derecho cosmopolita de Fichte a la luz de la crítica de Hegel al Grundlage des Naturrechts
Authors: Arrese Igor Héctor Oscar
Published: August 2020

Hegel desarrolló hacia 1802/1803 una crítica radical del derecho natural del Fichte de Jena. En especial intentó mostrar que el supuesto del egoísmo universal, sobre el cual Fichte construye su sistema del derecho aplicado, no puede sostener el funcionamiento de la comunidad política, porque es necesario apelar a instancias externas, tales como la virtud de los éforos o de los éforos naturales. En este trabajo intento mostrar que el argumento de Hegel también podría aplicarse al ámbito del derecho internacional fichteano. La razón de esto es que allí también Fichte opera con el supuesto del egoísmo universal, a fin de construir un sistema que disuada a los Estados de atacar a los demás, por miedo a la coacción representada por la declaración de guerra. Pero la amenaza constante del ataque de los demás Estados, producto del supuesto del egoísmo universal, impide la construcción de un orden mundial pacífico donde se respeten los derechos de todos.
Sobre la existencia de los mundos posibles
Authors: Vásquez Dávila Omar Hildebrando
Published: August 2020

En la discusión acerca del estatus ontológico de los mundos posibles, las partes en disputa, a saber, el realismo modal y el actualismo modal, desacuerdan respecto del alcance de la noción de “existencia”. Para los primeros el reino de lo existente abarca tanto los mundos posibles como los mundos actuales.1 Para los segundos, sólo el mundo actual existe efectivamente. Analizamos aquí la propuesta de Di Leo (2016), según la cual, la diferencia de valuación entre enunciados que contengan las nociones de “existencia actual” y “existencia” simpliciter rehabilitaría el realismo modal de Lewis (1986), el cual ha sido cuestionado por Barrio (1999).
Apuntes sobre la noción de espectralidad en la filosofía derrideana
Authors: Balcarce Gabriela
Published: August 2020

El presente artículo intenta explicitar algunos de los usos de la noción de espectro en la filosofía derrideana. Desestabilización del umbral entre la vida y la muerte, crítica a la metafísica de la presencia y al tratamiento humanista de la alteridad en el pensamiento de Lévinas anclado en la figura del rostro, así como también deconstrucción de cierta herencia del espíritu y con ello, de una concepción de la historia y la política idealista. Por último, la figura del espectro permitiría una articulación no dialéctica de las aporías derrideanas planteadas en los últimos años.
Democracia sin condiciones: Derrida y la política a golpes de aporía
Authors: Potestá Andrea
Published: August 2020

El artículo pretende poner de relieve la importancia de la construcción aporética en la comprensión derridiana de lo político. Al enfatizar los aspectos suspensivos relativos al problema de la identidad, de la soberanía y de la justicia, es decisivo mostrar, sin embargo, que la apuesta política deconstructiva, aunque se rehúse a reducirse a cualquier normatividad, no coincida tampoco con un gesto extrapolítico: Derrida invita a pensar lo incalculable de la justicia vinculándolo siempre a la economía del derecho, negociando así lo incondicional con lo condicional.
Acessibilidade e indicadores de emprego, tempo e distância de viagens: uma análise da Região Metropolitana de Goiânia
Authors: Da Silva Gonzaga Ana Stéfany , Kneib Érika Cristine
Published: August 2020

Nas metrópoles brasileiras, a ocorrência de deslocamentos pendulares constantes se faz característica de grande relevância mas que também gera grandes desafios. Para os gestores públicos de cada um dos municípios componentes de regiões metropolitanas, é de fundamental importância conhecer as necessidades e a disponibilidade de atividades no território, bem como o perfil dos deslocamentos de suas populações. Com isso, torna-se possível desenvolver diagnósticos coerentes com a realidade de cada município e também compreender o funcionamento da região metropolitana como um todo. Diante de tal abordagem e tendo a Região Metropolitana de Goiânia (RMG) como objeto de estudo, este trabalho se insere com o objetivo de explorar o uso de indicadores de acessibilidade como ferramentas que auxiliam o planejamento e a gestão urbana a partir de um estudo concentrado em características como o tempo gasto e a distância percorrida em viagens, bem como a oferta de empregos nos diversos municípios. Dentre os resultados obtidos neste trabalho está a identificação de características que indicam a falta de prioridade ao transporte público frente aos modos motorizados individuais, o que agrava as condições de acessibilidade e mobilidade urbana nas relações metropolitanas. Além disso, observa-se uma concentração de atividades que provoca certo desequilíbrio ao contribuir para condições de saturação na capital enquanto outros municípios apresentam características de cidade dormitório.

Modelo de avaliação da sustentabilidade de ciclovias urbanas aplicado à capital brasileira
Authors: Almeida Motta Renata , Melo Lima Clarissa , De Mendonça Augusto César , Marques da Silva Paulo Cesar
Published: August 2020

Este artigo propôs um modelo quantitativo usando Dimensões, Características e Indicadores de Sustentabilidade para avaliar a sustentabilidade das ciclovias. O modelo foi aplicado como um estudo de caso a duas ciclovias reais na capital brasileira, Brasília. O processo de seleção de indicadores de sustentabilidade empregou o método Delphi com 9 especialistas seniores da área de transporte e, originalmente, foram identificados 650 indicadores. Estes foram convertidos para fornecer 28 indicadores consolidados. Utilizou-se o método Função Multiatributo Aditiva (Multiattribute Utility Theory) para estabelecer uma hierarquia de dimensões, características e indicadores. Outros nove especialistas definiram níveis de importância e atribuíram pesos a Dimensões, Características e Indicadores. No total, 40 pesos foram atribuídos aos três níveis hierárquicos e o peso final de cada nível foi considerado a média aritmética dos pesos indicados pelos 9 especialistas. Os pesos dos indicadores foram multiplicados pelos pesos de suas respectivas Características e Dimensões, resultando em uma equação para o Índice de Sustentabilidade na forma de uma combinação linear dos pesos com os indicadores. Os usuários das ciclovias analisadas foram entrevistados e atribuíram pontuações a cada um dos indicadores. A partir dessas pontuações, foi possível calcular o indicador de sustentabilidade de cada ciclovia. A ciclovia 2 obteve uma melhor avaliação em relação a ciclovia 1 em todos os cenários de ponderação analisados.
Performance Analysis of Reed-Solomon Codes Concatenated with Convolutional Codes over AWGN Channel
Authors: Mergu Kattaswamy
Published: August 2020

With rapid growth in today’s technology, digital communication is playing a major role to provide hostile environment to meet various applications. In this communication, Coding plays a prominent role to contribute error free transmission through channel coding which improves capacity of a channel by adding some redundant bit to the original information. One way to provide a better performance of the communication system is by concatenating different types of channel coding techniques. The concatenation can be done either in parallel or serial. The primary aim of this paper is to concatenate the Reed-Solomon codes with Convolutional codes in series, which provides better results comparing with single coding techniques. The performance of the concatenation of Reed-Solomon codes with Convolutional codes can be evaluated by finding bit error rate with various values of signal-to-noise ratio over AWGN channel. The analytical result has been obtained by using MATLAB/OCTAVE.

Data mining can be used to detect model crime problems. This paper is about the importance of datamining about its techniques and how we can easily solve the crime. Crime data will be stored in criminal’s database.To analyze the data easily we have data mining technique that is clustering. Clustering is a method to group identicalcharacteristics in which the similarity is maximized or minimized. In clustering techniques also we have different typeof algorithm, but in this paper we are using the k-means algorithm and expectation-maximization algorithm. We areusing these techniques because these two techniques come under the partition algorithm. Partition algorithm is oneof the best methods to solve crimes and to find the similar data and group it. K-means algorithm is used to partitionthe grouped object based on their means. Expectation-maximization algorithm is the extension of k-means algorithmhere we partition the data based on their parameters.

Authors: Shyamala C. K. , Rajagopalan Anand K.
Published: August 2020

Automatic identification systems represent a wide classification of devices used primarily in commercialsettings for inventory/logistics control. Familiar examples of such devices are bar codes, magnetic strips, smartcards, RFID (Radio frequency identification) and biometric and voice recognition. Security is especially lax in low powered RF (radio frequency) systems communicating through an unsecured radio wave channel. Security represents a critical component for enabling the large scale adoption of automatic identification systems. Providing an effective security solution for low powered systems is a major area of concern; it directs research towards ‘power consumption aware’ computations in security solutions. This paper proposes a Lightweight Inter-Zonal Authentication Protocol for moving objects in low powered RF systems. Formal validation and a thorough analysis of the protocol in SPAN security tool reveals its effectiveness and resiliency to attacks–eaves dropping, reader and tag impersonation, replay and desynchronization.

Published: August 2020

The article presents effective approaches and educational techniques that can be used in teaching English to representatives of the sports field. To conduct the experiment, young players trained in the Republican College of the Olympic Reserve were selected. First, we studied how the English language lessons are taught to young footballers and conducted a survey. The survey questions were mainly aimed at finding out to what extent students are interested in learning the language. They were asked what is the most useful aspect of learning English. The results of the survey were analyzed and it was determined which language skills are more important for players who are representatives of the sports industry. Based on this, effective methods of language teaching are mentioned. Basically, teaching methods were chosen taking into account the integration of all language skills (listening, speaking, reading, and writing). Based on each method, various interactive tasks and assignments were used during the lessons, and it was explained how productively they are used in textbooks. The article shows the importance of using more authentic instructional materials in teaching English to representatives of the sports field. During the lessons, the importance of students working as a group is covered.
Urbanization, gender and transport research issues and insights in Nigeria: Towards a sustainable gender sensitive transport development
Authors: Asiyanbola R. A.
Published: August 2020

Urban transport, which serves as the sinew binding together various land-uses, has not only remained inefficient, but has grown over the years to be expensive and hazardous. Although, the situation of urban transport system in the Nigerian cities affects women and men, not until recently previous empirical and theoretical discussions most of the time assumed the universality of women’s and men’s experience. Every attempt at solving intra-urban mobility problems was made without gender considerations. The assumptions have always been such that the solutions are applicable equally to both men and women. In most cases, pure traditional economic variables which ignore crucial cultural roles and the salience of the life course are used to derive some of these solutions. Yet those missing variables are parts of our realities which of course need to be applied in formulating any transportation policy. The place of gender has been found to be very important in effective policy formulation because man and woman are not equal urban space users and actors. The paper provided an overview of gender and transport research and the policy implications towards a gender sensitive transport development in the Third World, particularly, Nigeria.
Short Messaging Services and Educational Information sharing by Students in Selected Public Universities in Nigeria
Authors: Nwagwu Williams E.
Published: August 2020

Questionnaire was used to collect data from 1676 undergraduate and postgraduate students randomly selected from three large public universities in Nigeria to determine how the students use text messaging or short messaging services (SMS) to exchange educational information. Uses and gratification theory, which emphasises that individuals are usually goal-directed in information search and use, and would often prefer media that would give them control of content choices, guided the study. Sixty-five percent and 63% of the respondents reported using the technology for contacting peers and lecturers respectively for educational matters, while less than 40% used the technology to contact others. Generally, closeness to mothers and education of parents influence use of the technology for educational contact. The instrumental gratifications of SMS capability to enable students escape face to face communication as well as its convenience explain use of SMS to make educational contacts. However, SMS use is mainly constrained by the difficulty to decipher the intention of the messages and by the confusion that often arises due to unclear acronyms often used by texters.
Development and Security in the Nigerian Democratic Dispensation
Authors: Adedoyin Adedayo
Published: August 2020

For more than five decades, Nigeria has witnessed series of efforts toward development which have been largely unsuccessful. With the aid of secondary data from various sources, this paper discusses the issue of Nigeria’s development aspiration in relationship to its security problems. The paper contends that the absence of good governance and insecurity have engendered elements of unaccountability, political division, disunity, violence, deprivation of infrastructural facilities, unemployment, etc. which constituted obstacles to the country’s development aspirations. Good socio-political and economic systems are identified as the key objectives to Nigeria’s development in the 21st century. In this dispensation, Nigeria has failed to fashion out its own development brands, while a successful development can only be achieved through a home-grown strategy and not necessarily through imported ideas or theories. The elements of good governance that guarantee freedom of speech, transparency and accountability, political stability and effectiveness, rule of law, etc. have not been given much recognition. The paper concludes that the persistent institutional uncertainty, weak rule of law, political deceit, infrastructural decay, unemployment, monumental corrupt practices and insecurity need to be addressed for Nigeria to make progress, and that adequate effective measures are required from the political stakeholders to safeguard Nigeria’s future and achieve development. Recommendations for better security system and development attainment are proffered.
Politics, Received Knowledge and the Subordination of indigenous Creativity
Authors: Olutayo Akinpelu O.
Published: August 2020

All societies had their own pattern of development embedded in the means of exploitation of the environment around which certain social institutions were created to satisfy the ‘needs’ of the people. The colonial epoch, with its own needs, substituted the ‘needs’ of the colonized with its own and recommended new ways of satisfying these new needs. This process is still being recommended through the pattern of domination in ‘world institutions’ manifested through new ‘indigenous’ social institutions in the neo-colonial African states. Of utmost significance are the formal educational institutions, through which the political elites are created, characterized by a privileged status and a culture of subordination. The understanding of the underdevelopment process and its perpetuation in Africa cannot, therefore, be deciphered without an in-depth knowledge of the politics of colonialism, embedded in the ‘worldview’ of received knowledge from the (neo-) colonizing authorities, and enhanced through the subordination of indigenous creativity. In order words, the disjuncture in what constituted knowledge and creativity in the pre-colonial arrangement and that expected in the received domain, is the crux of transformation in Africa. How can Africa catch-up with the phenomenal movement of this airplane?
Attitudes and Behaviour of Nigerian University Students towards Voluntary HIV Counselling and Testing
Authors: Nwokocha Ezebunwa E. , Eyango Victor
Published: August 2020

Despite increased campaign for voluntary counselling and testing (VCT) for HIV/AIDS in Nigeria only a negligible number of young people participates in this activity. This study investigates the factors affecting the attitudes and behaviour of students at the University of Ibadan, which is a microcosm of other universities in the country, as a way of understanding the context in which apathy towards VCT occurs. The Health Belief Model and the Theory of Reasoned Action enable the study to highlight the variables that interact to influence students’ behaviour towards VCT. Data were collected through structured questionnaires and in-depth interviews (IDIs). The survey involved 400 respondents selected through a multi-stage sampling technique, while 12 IDIs were conducted among undergraduate and postgraduate students identified as relatively knowledgeable about issues related to VCT – mainly as peer educators. The findings show that although 95.3% of the students were aware of VCT, only 15% of them had undertaken voluntary HIV testing. The specific results indicate that there is a wide gap between intention and action related to VCT. Of the 57.5% respondents who had discussed VCT and intended to participate in it, only 27.3% actually underwent VCT. A combination of overconfidence in not being HIV positive, fear of testing positive to the virus, the perceived non-confidentiality of test results and stigma and discrimination strongly discourage students from partaking in VCT. The study clearly indicates the need to bridge the gap between knowledge and behaviour through vigorous sensitization and enlightenment activities.
Globalization and Transnational Advance Fee Fraud: A Study of Perceptions of Undergraduates in Southeastern Nigeria
Authors: Egbue Ngozi G.
Published: August 2020

Transnational advance fee fraud has become a public issue since the 1980s, and has grown world wide within a background of corrupt dealings in foreign exchange and the transfer of illegally obtained money through foreign businesses and enterprises. In the Nigerian context, the general economic impoverishment with the attendant desperation of the educated to create self-employment and generate wealth, together with a tendency to get-rich-quick, constitute the background within which advance fee fraud has grown. At the global level, while contacts between different parts of the world have grown tremendously, with increasing potentials for personal, business and other forms of exchange, yet racial identities quite evidently tend to remain resilient, resulting in various forms of divisions and conflicts. This paper sought, with the use of a questionnaire, focus group discussions and interviews to examine the perception of undergraduates in southeastern Nigeria about certain aspects of this scam. This is because these youth are considered to be most predisposed, by virtue of their education, constant access to the internet, unsatisfied financial needs and the threat of imminent unemployment, to temptations to engage in advance fee fraud. The findings indicated that undergraduates were very familiar with advance fee fraud as a major economic activity. Furthermore, it was found that undergraduates generally viewed internet scam as less grievous than other irregular sources of income, largely because the victims were mainly foreigners, and also because there was usually no direct contact with victims. The study made recommendations for improved enlightenment of youth, stricter overall anti-corruption law enforcement, and increased employment opportunities for undergraduates.

Responsabilidad patrimonial de la Administración general del Estado: un estudio de la Orden SND/326/2020 del Ministerio de Sanidad, generada como consecuencia de la crisis por COVID-19
Authors: Vestri No Gabriele
Published: August 2020

Este estudio pretende analizar la estructura de la responsabilidad patrimonial de la Administración Estatal como consecuencia de la introducción de la Orden SND/326/2020 del Ministerio de Sanidad. Esta orden permite la fabricación de mascarillas y batas quirúrgicas, durante la permanencia del estado de alarma, a personas físicas y jurídicas que así lo soliciten. Se trata  de autorizar la producción de material sanitario a quien, entre otros, no lo haga consuetudinariamente de forma profesional o su profesión se dedique a la fabricación de otro tipo de producto. En caso de daños, la Administración General del Estado asumiría la responsabilidad extracontractual. La situación parece presentar ciertas incongruencias o dificultades interpretativas que ubican a las administraciones involucradas en el centro del debate.
El contrato menor como cuestión mayor en la contratación del sector público
Authors: Casares Marcos Anabelén
Published: August 2020

Pocas cuestiones han motivado tanta literatura tras la aprobación de la LCSP como la contratación menor, erigiéndose rápidamente en tema estrella de la reforma. La confusión suscitada por la inadecuada redacción de su artículo 118 la convirtieron rápidamente, precisamente por la resistencia de Administraciones y entidades públicas a abandonarla, en una cuestión mayor, incluso, si se me permite la expresión, en una pieza de caza mayor prácticamente imposible de abatir pese a la satisfacción con que se acogió en un primer momento su nueva regulación. Y así, aunque su restricción por la reforma de 2017 se debe, entre otras cuestiones, al uso abusivo durante años de la figura, el legislador ha socavado paulatinamente su firmeza inicial al respecto.

TDS meter is a measure of the conductivity of solutes in liquids, this tool is often used as an important component in determining water quality before use. There are still several components to be examined beside TDS, one of which is temperature. Temperature is an important component to measure the feasibility of water. Temperature measuring devices can be used to find out how much the temperature of the liquid being measured. The TDS meter that is already in the general public can only be used to find out the TDS. So, if people want to measure other components such as temperature, a thermometer is needed to measure it, of course this becomes inefficient and requires a higher cost because if you want to measure other components, the public must buy another measuring instrument. Therefore, on this occasion to make measurement tools become more efficient, the writer will design a measuring instrument that can be used to measure 2 components at once, namely a TDS meter and a thermometer designed in one device. TDS meter uses a conductivity sensor and a thermometer uses a DS18B20 waterproof temperature sensor.

Objective: To evaluate the acceptance of the mobile application (“app”) by adolescents in orthodontic treatment for a better applicability of this resource. Methods: Ninety orthodontic patients, aged between 13 and 17, of both sexes, used an application, chosen for presenting a Portuguese version and reaching the target audience. Then they registered their acceptance through the SUS (System Usability Scale) questionnaire, which measures user satisfaction through ease of use of the application, with its Satisfaction and Usability Indexes. The findings were subjected to descriptive and comparative statistical analysis using the Kruskal Wallis and Dunn test, adopting a significance level of 5%. Results: The application presented the above-average Satisfaction and Usability Index (79.1). The domain (quality component) with the highest index was "Learnability" (85,3), in relation to "Efficiency" (79,0), "Satisfaction" (76,0), "Memorability" (72,2) and "Errors" (71,4) (p≤0,05). Conclusion: Mobile app was accepted by adolescents in orthodontic treatment due to the ease and speed that it was used. However, its acceptance was negatively influenced by the reported frequency of use. Therefore, its application as an educational and motivational tool in clinical practice is suggested, as long as the different aspects that involve its best applicability are considered.

Objetivo: Sistematizar informações sobre as Tecnologias da Informação e Comunicação em Saúde que contribuam no enfrentamento das zoonoses. Método: Foram realizadas buscas nas bases de dados LILACS e SCIELO, com os descritores: “ANÁLISE ESPACIAL”, “TELEMEDICINA” e “ZOONOSES”, selecionando artigos científicos de pesquisas de origem no Brasil e dentro do período de 2014 a 2018. Resultados: Foram selecionados 12 artigos científicos, esses foram divididos em três categorias: Teleducação e Telemedicina, com dois; Sistemas de Informações em Saúde, com seis e Análise Espacial, com quatro. Na primeira categoria, destacaram-se experiências de teleducação, na segunda, o SINAN foi o SIS mais utilizado e, na Análise Espacial, destacaram-se estudos com os softwares TerraView, Google Earth e ArcGIS. Conclusão: A escassez de informações sobre as zoonoses foi ratificada com os poucos artigos científicos encontrados, mostrando dessa forma a demanda pela realização de atividades sobre zoonoses com subsídio das TICs no contexto do Sistema Único de Saúde.

Introdução: Médicos recém-formados buscam o título de especialista, enfrentando processos seletivos concorridos. Cursos preparatórios e ferramentas digitais surgem diante da busca por aprovação. Assim, o objetivo do estudo foi a construção de um aplicativo focado em provas de residência médica baseado na perspectiva e opinião do usuário. Métodos: Foi realizado um estudo analítico transversal para investigar o entendimento e a perspectiva dos alunos sobre o processo de seleção e o uso de aplicativos, a partir desse estudo foi desenvolvido um aplicativo agregador de provas de residência médica. Resultados: A maioria dos alunos entrevistados (93,7%) almejava fazer residência e entendia os custos envolvidos. Aplicativos para estudo eram frequentemente usados (72,7%) pela maioria dos alunos (86,8%) e serviam para autoavaliação (75,0%) e identificação de conteúdo deficitário (65,6%). Foi possível desenvolver um aplicativo móvel que supriu parcialmente as necessidades relatadas pelos usuários. Conclusão: Aplicativos são ferramentas que auxiliam no estudo e na autoavaliação para seleção de residência médica, porém os disponíveis não suprem as necessidades do usuário. Foi desenvolvido o protótipo de um aplicativo móvel agregador de questões, adequado ao perfil deste usuário, que supre carências apontadas, como acesso grátis e possibilidade de criação de testes personalizados.

Introdução: Preparar os estudantes de graduação em Enfermagem para o processo de morte e morrer pode contribuir para o cuidado sensível a aspectos socioculturais, físicos, emocionais e espirituais. Objetivo: Construir colaborativamente um material educativo digital relacionado às competências para lidar com o cuidado no processo de morte e morrer. Método: Tratou-se de uma pesquisa-ação realizada em grupo fechado no Facebook®, com delineamento de Círculos de Cultura Virtual e fundamentada na problematização em Paulo Freire, com o intuito de promover a elaboração de um protótipo de material educativo digital com foco em incentivar competências básicas para cuidar na terminalidade da vida. Empregou-se a análise temática de conteúdo nos registros das interações entre os participantes no ambiente virtual. Resultados: Emergiram duas categorias, denominadas “A complexidade do cuidado no processo de morte e morrer” e “O enfrentamento pessoal relacionado ao cuidar na finitude da vida”, subsidiárias para a elaboração de uma página web intitulada “Primeiros passos para lidar com o processo de morte e morrer”. Conclusão: A construção colaborativa desse material educativo digital foi relevante para o desenvolvimento básico de competências sobre morte e morrer.

Authors: Valerio Netto Antonio
Published: August 2020

Objetivo: Apresentar o desenvolvimento de um módulo de biotelemetria que captura dados fisiológicos (frequência cardíaca) de um usuário, utilizando um dispositivo wearable, no momento que ele esta sendo treinado em um simulador baseado em realidade virtual imersiva. Método: Criação de um aplicativo (APP) para Wear OS instalado em um smartwatch para capturar e transmitir os dados via Wi-Fi ou 3G/4G para plataforma cloud. A solução apoiou-se em uma metodologia de threads utilizado um método de controle de fluxo chamado stop-and-wait com o formato de envio JSON. Para armazenamento dos dados foi utilizado o SQLite. Resultados: Foi criada uma API (Application Programming Interface) para realizar a coleta de dados biométricos de batimento cardíaco e enviar para plataforma cloud. Foi possível realizar testes de validação das diferenças dos valores de batimentos cardíacos por minuto (BPM - Beats Per Minute) conforme a execução da simulação. Conclusão: Entende-se que foi possível validar a proposta de captura de dados fisiológicos durante as sessões de treinamento e a significância dessa informação para axíliar um possível método de avaliação de desempenho.
