Rotinas Internas da Gestão Escolar
Ferramentas de Gestão da Qualidade

description: A Secretaria de Estado da Educação e Qualidade do Ensino do Estado do Amazonas desenvolve ações com vistas a melhorar a educação. Elas são pensadas tanto para um contexto macro como micro. É neste sentido que consideramos oportuno este livro, intitulado Diretrizes organizacionais da Gestão Escolar: Rotinas Internas, que foi construído, com base nos domínios estabelecidos pelo Ministério da Educação (MEC), publicado em 2016, e em reflexões acerca da realidade do contexto escolar.
 O livro percorre sendas de concepções mais práticas do que teóricas, sustentadas pelo cotidiano de profissionais envolvidos, direta e indiretamente, com a gestão escolar. Este tipo de material dispõe-se como uma ferramenta estratégica indispensável a efetivar ações coordenadas, ainda que se tenham contextos diferentes.
 É um grande desafio para o gestor escolar atuar em um contexto tão diverso e com distintas realidades, entretanto, faz-se necessário desenvolver um planejamento bem elaborado e participativo, tendo como diferencial competitivo da escola os recursos humanos. Essa configuração exige mudança de concepção, da prática de gestão autoritária para a prática de gestão democrática.
 Este livro contém diversas ferramentas validadas e experimentadas por diferentes setores da gestão, tanto pública como privada, e se implementadas podem impactar positivamente nas ações planejadas e organizadas para a gestão, e totalmente adaptável a cada realidade. Não se trata de limitar as ações da equipe gestora, mas uma referência para o auxílio e o fortalecimento da gestão escolar.

An Interactive System for Visualizing and Manipulating Spectral Data
Creators: name: Eakin, Richard Thomas
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2009

description: Current techniques for sound analysis and synthesis make powerful tools for designing new music instruments. Yet, the tools for investigating the possibility of creating new sounds from existing ones are rarely interactive by design, commonly geared towards either scientific or commercial applications. As music instruments need to be interactive in order to allow for expression, it is difficult to expand the usability of these powerful tools in new directions. A unique and exciting method is introduced within this thesis for exploring spectra data created through the well-known and powerful analysis/synthesis methods known as SMS (Spectral Modeling Synthesis). The system is designed to be as interactive as can be, exposing many low level parameters within an environment that can be manipulated in real-time. The main reason why this system is unique is that arbitrary time/frame specification is indefinitaly allowed. Modifications are then performed on some or all of the data in any number of ways, while not requiring a large analysis file to create realistic and interesting sounds. In order to make this type of sound navigation intuitive, a real-time graphical interface is designed as a method of visualizing the sound’s features. Within this system, one can use a variety of types of sounds as material for a new music instrument, whether the chosen sample is short, long, simple, or complex. This thesis suggests a new system for researching music instrument design, based on spectral data through real-time, interactive experimentation. A prototype instrument and experimental variations are designed as proof of concept of the exploratory nature of this system. Preliminary modifications are implemented and tested, lending insight into which methods seem valuable within a musical context.
Antelope – a web service for publishing life cycle models and results

description: Preparing a life cycle assessment (LCA) requires collecting vast and varied information about industrial processes, known collectively as life cycle inventory (LCI) data. Inventory data for a given study may include a mix of proprietary information, literature results, and data sets drawn from reference databases as well as direct observations, statistical models, and estimates. Exchange and cooperative review of LCI models is challenging, because the use of private data often requires that intermediate results be concealed. Variations in modeling assumptions, scope and system boundary definitions across studies make conclusions difficult to generalize. Moreover, technical differences across software systems and the lack of a data format for publishing finished models also limit the ability of LCA practitioners to disseminate their results to a broad audience. As a consequence, it is often difficult to determine the provenance of LCA results, leading to low confidence in their interpretation.
To address the need of study authors to share their results, we have developed a web service that enables the publication of LCI models and impact assessment (LCIA) results while protecting the privacy of source data. Models are constructed out of “fragments,” acyclic directed graphs in which nodes correspond to unit processes and edges correspond to intermediate flows. Nodes are weighted according to their activity levels in a manner consistent with widespread LCA practice. Fragments can be arranged hierarchically by a study author to describe complex models. Using the service, processes and fragments can be inspected, and LCIA results for both processes and fragments can be retrieved for LCIA methods that are implemented by the service. Individual model components (processes, flows, flow properties, and LCIA methods) are referenced to source files formatted according to the ILCD standard. Processes originating from datasets marked as “private” report only aggregate LCIA results, while non-private processes can be inspected at the flow level.
The service permits remote users to retrieve modeling information and LCIA results from any web terminal. The work product is designed according to the REST architectural style, meaning that queries to the service are easily intelligible, stateless, and return self-documenting and human-readable results to a user. The results can also be processed by a specialized “front-end” tool and displayed interactively. The API specification and source code are available from the sponsor agency and will be released under an open source license.

description: Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) interacts with RNAs in cells, but there is noconsensus on how RNA regulates PRC2 canonical functions, including chromatinmodification and the maintenance of transcription programs in lineage-committed cells. Weassayed two separation-of-function mutants of the PRC2 catalytic subunit EZH2, defective inRNA binding but functional in methyltransferase activity. We find that part of the RNA-binding surface of EZH2 is required for chromatin modification, yet this activity isindependent of RNA. Mechanistically, the RNA-binding surface within EZH2 is required forchromatin modification in vitro and in cells, through interactions with nucleosomal DNA.Contrarily, an RNA-binding defective mutant exhibited normal chromatin modification activityin vitro and in lineage-committed cells, accompanied by normal gene repression activity.Collectively, we show that part of the RNA-binding surface of EZH2, rather than theRNA-binding activity per se, is required for the histone methylation in vitro andin cells through interactions with the substrate nucleosome.

Subjects: Environmental Science

description: Environmental protection is part of the Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) commitment that all companies are eager to secure. However, a growing level of scrutiny over the CSR practices of the electronics supply chains has followed the global trend of extensive outsourcing. Studies have shown that there is still a huge gap on the interpretation of legal compliance and numerous inconsistencies regarding to the auditing process for this CSR commitment. In this study, we investigated the CSR disputes involving the world’s largest integrated circuit (IC) assembly and test services provider in Taiwan, Advanced Semiconductor Engineering (ASE) Inc. We analyzed the responses from ASE, the concerned citizens and civic groups, the local government and its policy schemes, and the brand-name companies surrounding the ASE environmental violations and controversies. This paper demonstrated that the fabless brands were unable to monitor or document the actual CSR practices of their suppliers without engaging the concerned local stakeholders. By leaving out the local citizen groups from the auditing processes, the firms made little progress to fundamentally change their practices and would easily resume business as usual. Our research showcased the importance of using a multi-stakeholder approach to fill the void left by insufficient regulations and incompetent agencies as well as to improve supply chain management. Furthermore, the information disclosure and stakeholder participation provisions should be emphasized and reinforced as a part of the supply chains’ obligations.

description: The integration of an online aerodynamic particle sizer as a Process Analytical Technology for real-time aerodynamic particle sizing in a laboratory spray dryer is studied. It is found that the aerodynamic particle sizer can discriminate inhalable powders in terms of aerodynamic size, provided that the apparatus can regulate the aerosol particle concentration via a diluter and an adequate sampling time for statistical convergence is established (20 s in the presented case study). The precision and accuracy of the real-time data from our apparatus were found to be adequate for the formulation development of composite particles for dry powder inhalers. The measurement of primary aerodynamic size allows the decoupling of formulation and process development of the spray drying operation from the downstream processes and the device performance. This decoupling accelerates development by reducing long lead time testing to characterize Dry Powder Inhaler formulations such as inertial impaction, which is the current standard.

description: Atmospheric nanoplastics (NPs) have emerged as a significant environmental concern, but knowledge about these emerging contaminants remains limited due to challenges associated with analytical techniques for detection and quantification. Aerosol mass spectrometry (AMS) has demonstrated potential to measure airborne NPs, but there is a need for a systematic assessment of its capability to measure NPs. Here we used polyethylene terephthalate nanoplastic particles (PET-NPs) as a proxy of NPs to investigate the ability of high-resolution time-of-flight aerosol mass spectrometer (HR-ToF-AMS) to determine monomeric composition and evaluate its sensitivity toward NPs. Different PET consumer products were used to generate PET-NPs under thermo-oxidation conditions, using either a 3D printer or a tube furnace. The relative ionization efficiency (RIE) of PET-NPs was determined to be around 0.75. The particle mass spectra observed by AMS under standard operating conditions reveal notable marker ions of emitted PET-NPs such as those at m/z 149 and 166. Upon comparing the particle composition data obtained from AMS with that from pyrolysis gas chromatography mass spectrometry, we note consistencies in the mass spectra between online and offline techniques, implying similar thermal decomposition and ion fragmentation mechanisms under electron ionization (EI) at the respective operating temperatures. No evidence of vaporization delay was observed for PET at the standard vaporization temperature (600 °C) of HR-ToF-AMS. The results of this study further inform the ability and limitations of using real time aerosol mass spectrometry to measure airborne NPs.

description: Antibiotic resistance is emerging as a critical issue in chicken farms due to the excessive use of antibiotics. However, the current understanding of the richness (abundance), diversity, and spatial distribution of airborne antibiotic resistance genes remains limited. According to the findings, bioaerosol is one of the major pathways for the transmission of antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in chicken farms. The research focused on the analysis of bacterial communities, mobile genetic elements (MGEs), and ARGs in samples of both feces and air, comparing summer and winter conditions. The average concentration of airborne ARGs and MGEs during winter is higher than that during summer when using the ventilation system. The tetC gene has been detected as the main airborne ARGs, with an abundance of tetC was 4.9 ± 0.3 lg copies/m3. Lactobacillus and Acinetobacter, along with various opportunistic pathogens, have been identified as predominant bacteria in both air and fecal samples. Diverse bacterial populations tend to proliferate at high temperatures, while relative humidity (RH) has adverse effects. Wind velocity plays a crucial role in dispersing ARGs through the air. Network interaction analysis indicates that fecal matter contributes to 19.9% of airborne bacterial levels in summer and 59.4% in winter. Additionally, horizontal gene transfer (HGT) significantly contributes to the dissemination of airborne ARGs during winter, with a probability of 77.8%, compared to a minimal probability of 12.0% in summer. These findings may deliver a comprehensive knowledge of the transmission and dissemination characteristics of airborne ARGs and serve as a guideline for evaluating potential threats associated with chicken farms. There is a need for increased endeavors to mitigate and control the potential health risks arising from airborne ARGs.

An Architectural Approach to Composing Reputation-Based Trustworthy Services

Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: In SOA, Reputation-Based Trust (RBT) mechanism is applied to achieve trust management. RBT enables services to assess the trust level of other services based on the reputation accumulated from user recommendations. A key challenge to apply RBT is to prevent the strategic behavior of users when they provide recommendations -- they might give unfair ratings to benefit themselves. In this paper, we propose a novel architectural approach to integrating auction mechanisms into the trust framework to prevent benefits from untruthful incentives. In this architecture we define an auction-based trust negotiation protocol and realize it in the trust framework. The contribution of our architecture is that it scales and produces accurate results to achieve protection against untruthful incentives, especially when a majority of ratings are unfair, without the potential increase in a computation overhead. An example on a travel agent scenario is devised to collect empirical evidence.

description: In a recent blog post, we discussed object-inspired container design patterns in detail and the sidecar pattern was one of them. In a sidecar pattern, the functionality of the main container is extended or enhanced by a sidecar container without strong coupling between two. This pattern is particularly useful when using Kubernetes as container orchestration platform. Kubernetes uses Pods. A Pod is composed of one or more application containers. A sidecar is a utility container in the Pod and its purpose is to support the main container. It is important to note that standalone sidecar does not serve any purpose, it must be paired with one or more main containers. Generally, sidecar container is reusable and can be paired with numerous type of main containers.

description: We present early mid-ultraviolet and optical observations of Type IIn supernovae (SNe IIn) observed from 2007 to 2013. Our results focus on the properties of UV light curves: peak absolute magnitudes, temporal decay, and color evolution. During early times, this sample demonstrates that UV light decays faster than optical, and each event transitions from a predominantly UV-bright phase to an optically bright phase. In order to understand early UV behavior, we generate and analyze the sample's blackbody luminosity, temperature, and radius as the SN ejecta expand and cool. Since most of our observations were detected post maximum luminosity, we introduce a method for estimating the date of peak magnitude. When our observations are compared based on filter, we find that even though these SNe IIn vary in peak magnitudes, there are similarities in UV decay rates. We use a simple semi-analytical SN model in order to understand the effects of the explosion environment on our UV observations. Understanding the UV characteristics of nearby SNe IIn during an early phase can provide valuable information about the environment surrounding these explosions, leading us to evaluating the diversity of observational properties in this subclass.

Sandstone Acidizing Simulation: Development of an Expert System

Oil well stimulations

description: Various models to simulate sandstone acidizing processes in oil well stimulations have been presented in the past. The standard "lumped" model representing the sandstone acidizing process that has been used until recently considers one acid and two representative minerals. Although this model has been employed for years, investigators have found tpat the model does not account for acid (HF) consumption consistently and cannot extrapolate laboratory data to different operating conditions. A secondary dissolution/precipitation reaction is proposed to simulate the acidizing process more accurately. This leads to an improved model which represents the sandstone acidizing with two acid and three mineral equations. The new model has been implemented in a sandstone acidizing simulator called UT ACID. The first part of the research investigates the two-acid, three-mineral model and compares both models. The study provides results which confirm the findings by previous investigators. The simulator requires input files containing data about the formation properties, acidizing fluid system, and simulator parameters. One of the difficult parts in creating these input files is in the design of matrix acidizing fluids particularly the concentration and volume of the acid. The selection of acid fluids is a design process, an appropriate task for expert systems. This leads to another task for a complete acidizing simulation study. An expert system has been developed to help design sandstone acidizing fluid systems and create input files for the simulator. Required parameters for sandstone acidizing such as acid type, concentration, volume, and injection rate/pressure are first designed using the expert system. The output from the expert system is then used to create the input data for the UT ACID simulator. Given proper reservoir data including information about the damage, the expert system presents recommendations including the damage removal fluids, the acid systems if required, the injection pressure and schedule, and the input file for the simulator. Integration of the expert system, the simulator, and additional routines including X-Window visualization programs leads to the construction of ASSESS, a complete and user-friendly package for sandstone acidizing fluid design and simulation. Testing on this package shows satisfactory results.

Porous media

description: The first objective of this dissertation is to understand flow through fractured media by performing experiments to characterize the aperture spatial distribution in a rock fracture, develop a microscopic network model for relative permeabilities in a fracture, and test the model implications with simulations. Nuclear magnetic resonance imaging (NMRI) techniques were developed for the accurate modeling of spatial distributions of apertures and two-phase fluid distributions in rock fractures. Rock models of known apertures were used to validate the NMRI technique. NMRI aperture values were in fair agreement with nominal and hydraulic aperture values. The fracture signal was isolated by NMRI. Individual fractures can be represented as two-dimensional networks of locations of wide and narrow aperture. Using the Effective Medium Approximation (EMA), the effects of aperture distribution and of gravity on these relative permeability curves is illustrated. Simultaneous two-phase flow is possible if the wetting-phase flow occurs along the fracture wall. Zones of zero aperture, locations where the fracture walls close, reduce relative permeabilities; the manner of this reduction depends on spatial distribution of the zones of zero aperture. Simple EMA models for non-Newtonian single-phase flow through fractures were developed. Shear-thinning non-Newtonian fluids make the fracture appear to be wider than in Newtonian flow. The substantial effect of fracture relative permeabilities on reservoir performance is illustrated using the waterflood case of the Sixth SPE Comparative Simulation Project as a basis of comparison. The second objective of this dissertation is to develop computational tools to scale up petrophysical properties in a spatially periodic, mixed-wet, heterogeneous rock and apply the algorithms to realistic reservoir descriptions comprising more than J06 fine-grid data points from a sandstone oil field. Two-phase effective relative-permeabilities and capillary pressure were obtained by scale-up from plug scale to gridblock scale. The steady-state approximation was used for two-phase scale-up, which has the potential to be a computationally significant improvement over unsteady-state scale-up methods that require extensive fine-grid simulation. The results also illustrate differences between scaled-up horizontal and vertical relative-permeability curves and rock curves corresponding to average permeability and porosity. Effective properties are compared using direct pressure solution and averaging techniques for the limiting cases of low and high capillary number. The effect of wettability and lithology variations on the scaled-up relative permeabilities is illustrated. For the sandstone field descriptions tested, the calculated capillary-number-dependent effective horizontal relative-permeability curves were close to the high-capillary-number limit at realistic reservoir flow rates.

description: Understanding hydrocarbon migration and trapping is important, since it can mean the difference between success and failure in exploration projects. Our current understanding is that a capillary pressure change between the seal and carrier bed is the main factor responsible for the trapping. This theory uses capillary pressure gradients under static (no flow) conditions to define the maximum amounts of hydrocarbon that can be trapped under a particular seal. It assumes that at the very low flow rates encountered in secondary migration viscous pressure drops are negligible. This research shows that even at low flow rates the viscous pressure drops may not be neglected. Trapping at a boundary is a result of complex interplay among buoyancy, viscous, and capillary forces. A theory that includes the effect of all of these forces on the trapping of hydrocarbons is presented. First, the effects of viscous forces are isolated by neglecting capillary pressure and solving by the method of characteristics. The results show that viscous forces alone can .cause trapping of hydrocarbons at a heterogeneity boundary. The effects of capillary pressure are then added and UTCHEM simulator is used to study the combined effect of viscous and capillary forces. The results.show that, even at very low flow rates, viscous pressure drops are not negligible and that pressure gradients within phases can be substantially different from the static gradients. This difference is the result of countercurrent flow and relative permeabilities at extreme saturations. The results also show that neglecting viscous pressure drops may lead to underestimating the capacity of a seal. The conditions at which a particular seal will leak are also defined. The method of characteristics solution is extended to include the effects of capillary pressures. The results of this research show that it is possible to classify seals into static seals and dynamic seals based on the flux rate from the source rock, the capillary pressure curves for the reservoir and the seal, and the flux-saturation relationship for the reservoir and the seal. Static seals conform to the conventional theory. Dynamic seals, on the other hand, can show substantially more trapping than static seals. In both cases, it is possible to associate a time scale to the accumulation and indicate explanations to several other features commonly observed in secondary migration.

Nanodroplets on a solid surface (i.e., surface nanodroplets) have practical implications for high-throughput chemical and biological analysis, lubrications, laboratory-on-chip devices, and near-field imaging techniques. Oil nanodroplets can be produced on a solid–liquid interface in a simple step of solvent exchange in which a good solvent of oil is displaced by a poor solvent. In this work, we experimentally and theoretically investigate the formation of nanodroplets by the solvent exchange process under well-controlled flow conditions. We find significant effects from the flow rate and the flow geometry on the droplet size. We develop a theoretical framework to account for these effects. The main idea is that the droplet nuclei are exposed to an oil oversaturation pulse during the exchange process. The analysis shows that the volume of the nanodroplets increases with the Peclet number Pe of the flow as ∝ Pe 3/4 , which is in good agreement with our experimental results. In addition, at fixed flow rate and thus fixed Peclet number, larger and less homogeneously distributed droplets formed at less-narrow channels, due to convection effects originating from the density difference between the two solutions of the solvent exchange. The understanding from this work provides valuable guidelines for producing surface nanodroplets with desired sizes by controlling the flow conditions.

description: Planococcus citri and P. minor:
they are very similar species and are part of a complex of mealybugs known as citrus mealybug. The females have an oval shape, with a length of 3 to 5 mm, the young forms have pink coloration; the adults are yellow-brown and the body is covered with a whitish powdery secretion. They characterize for having 18 side appendages, powdery white on each side and two more terminal appendages, larger than the lateral ones.Throughout life, these coccidians can lay about 400 eggs for 90 days. They secrete a white woolly substance that serves to protect the eggs next to the insect body. The eggs are yellow-orange in color and the nymphs appear after 10 to 20 days of laying. Inhabiting a small cocoon, they reach adulthood in about ten days. They live in colonies made up of individuals at various stages of development. Both nymphs and adults suck sap in flower buds and underdevelopment fruits (Figure 7). The complete evolutionary cycle is 25 days, on average.The are registered in different agroecological regions of Espírito Santo (FORNAZIER et al., 2000g, 2001a; SANTA-CECÍLIA; REIS; SOUZA, 2002; SANTA-CECÍLIA et al., 2005), where its detection occurred in the 1970's, causing losses of up to 100% of coffee production (PAULINI et al., 1977).
 Dysmicoccus texensis: They are insects with aptera adult female, oval body and pinkish color, covered with finely grained white wax, which gives it the appearance of flour and about 2.5 mm in length. They have 34 filamentous appendages around the body, with 17 on each side, the latter two being longer (SANTA-CECÍLIA et al., 2007). Its reproduction is parthenogenetic, being able to generate up to 253 individuals during period of 52 to 87 days. The most favorable temperature to the population development is of 20 to 25 oC and associated to the high relative humidity, with up to five annual generations (NAKANO, 1972). The first infestations arise in small colonies right below the neck or collar of new plants. With the development of the population, the insect is spreading to the plant roots, forming nodes called crypts, inside of which live their young and adult forms associated with the fungus of the genus Bornetina, which gives a plate appearance on the roots (Figure 8).

Porous media

description: Foams can improve sweep efficiency and oil recovery in miscible and steam enhanced-oil-recovery (EOR) processes. For a successful application of foam in EOR processes, a simulator that can predict foam performance under field conditions is highly desirable. In this study, a foam simulator that incorporates the "fixed limiting capillary pressure" model and some empirical foam models into a compositional miscible-flood simulator - UTCOMP - is implemented. This approach highlights the key foam mechanisms that control foam behavior in porous media, offering unique insights into foam-process mechanisms under reservoir conditions Simulations covering a wide range in reservoir properties and geometry, injection rate, foam quality, foam strength, and mechanism of foam collapse suggest that a single dimensionless number, called the viscous-gravity ratio, can predict the ability of continuous-injection foam processes to overcome gravity override in homogeneous, anisotropic reservoirs. This result implies that foam can prevent gravity override by attaining a sufficient lateral pressure gradient at attainable injection rates. Simulations also show that Surfactant-Alternating-Gas (SAG) foam processes can achieve both high injectivity and improved performance in overcoming gravity override, demonstrating the potential advantages of SAG foam processes over continuous-foam-injection processes. Our preliminary study shows that capillary cross-flow can grossly alter foam effectiveness in two layers in intimate contact; the extent of capillary cross-flow appears to depe'lld on a ratio of viscous-and capillary-pressure gradients and reservoir geometry. The sharp change of foam properties as a function of water saturation requires the use of fine simulation grids and small time steps to obtain quantitatively correct results. In SAG processes, fine grids are crucial for achieving results close to those predicted by fractional-flow theory. Foam generation and foam stability in porous media at low pressure gradients or low flow rates are crucial to successful gas mobility control in EOR processes. The experimental study concludes that the heterogeneity of a porous medium, specifically, permeability variation in the flow direction, provides favorable conditions for the generating strong foams. Foam-stability experiments prove that, once foams are formed, they need not collapse at very low gas velocities or low V p in porous media.
