Down syndrome is caused by the presence of three chromosomes 21 in all or most cells of a person [1]. A person with Down syndrome has different chronological and functional age, so the same response is not expected as those without the syndrome [2]. This deficiency stems from brain damage and functional imbalances of the nervous system, resulting in some learning difficulties, which can vary from basic literacy to performing daily activities. The applications developed in this work are intended to help these people in their literacy, while monitoring their attention levels and detecting their expressions. The assistance is provided through activities such as pairing vowels and matching words with corresponding images and sounds. On the other hand, a biofeedback algorithm called Attention Meter runs in parallel with the activities, monitoring the user's attention during the execution. This algorithm is implemented as a framework that can be used by any application running Android or RemixOS. Finally, a performance report of the student engagement and learning is generated for a professional analysis, according to the attention level.
Urban spatial patterns that can enhance the city's cultural, social, environmental, material and structural performance advance beyond the old notions of design patterns by incorporating the digital design. Pattern books such as ``A Pattern Language'' are revisited and toolboxes /toolkits are used in contemporary urban designs by laboratories and offices. The aim of this paper is to analyze the particularities and congruencies between some systems of patterns, pattern books, toolboxes and toolkits aimed at small public spaces, also considering the context of digital culture. The methodology proposed is the construction of a taxonomy that relates and classifies these selected patterns, by these following steps: a) selecting of patterns applicable to small public spaces; b) classification of patterns by ``type'' (location, behavior, processes and design components) and by ``driven designs'' approach (data-driven design, performance-driven design, and material-driven design) and relation to the recurrences of patterns between the systems; c) making and inserting in the taxonomy platform a table of elements and connections; d) filtering by classes for analysis. From the results obtained in the visualizations, it is possible to consider a larger volume of ``location'' type patterns and a smaller volume in ``processes'' indicating a field that can be developed.
One of the most significant public space studies, "A Pattern Language", published in 1977, is until today's background for some contemporary investigations. The aim of this paper is to propose an operationalization of the patterns' network of the book into a network analysis tool. The methodology is based on a new classification of patterns, in addition to what is initially presented in the book: "context patterns" (evidencing pre-existing conditions and potentialities) and "design patterns" (considering possibilities limited by the stakeholder at that location). The digital operationalization can enhance the analytical and predictive character of the work.
Resumo-A segurança da informação em redes sem fioé um aspecto de projeto que tem demandado um aumento de pesquisa e desenvolvimento, de modo a diminuir as chances de invasão e quebra de chaves de segurança. Neste artigo, os autores apresentam resultados de experimentos para testes de segurança em redes sem fio, por meio do uso do software Reaver.
