Engaging end-user driven recommender systems: personalization through web augmentation
In the past decades recommender systems have become a powerful tool to improve personalization on the Web. Yet, many popular websites lack such functionality, its implementation usually requires certain technical skills, and, above all, its introduction is beyond the scope and control of end-users. To alleviate these problems, this paper presents a novel tool to empower end-users without programming skills, without any involvement of website providers, to embed personalized recommendations of items into arbitrary websites on client-side. For this we have developed a generic meta-model to capture recommender system configuration parameters in general as well as in a web augmentation context.
Thereupon, we have implemented a wizard in the form of an easy-to-use browser plugin, allowing the generation of so-called user scripts, which are executed in the browser to engage collaborative filtering functionality from a provided external REST service. We discuss functionality and limitations of the approach, and in a study with end-users we assess the usability and show its suitability for combining recommender systems with web augmentation techniques, aiming to empower end-users to implement controllable recommender applications for a more personalized browsing experience
Barriers to Health Service Access: A Study on Conditioning Factors of Self-Health and Illness Perception in Argentina
Aims: To determine self-health image and illness perception as potential barriers to health services access among inhabitants of La Plata, Buenos Aires, Argentina. Methods: A cross-sectional study, where survey, “Brief Illness- Perception Questionnaire” and basic medical examination were performed on 2430 participants at homes. Results: Although men showed a better concept of their state of health, they perceived their illness worse and belatedly. Only 45% of participants perceived symptoms disease, and from them, 48% finally decided to consult to the health system. Hence, from every 100 sick people, only 21 had access to a health institution. Higher level of education achieved, better socio-economic conditions or holding health insurance were significantly associated with appropriate health seeking, and access to health service. Conclusions: Self-health image and disease perception affected people’s access to health services. Participants of this study showed suboptimal disease perception, manifested as meager and delayed demand for care. These results demonstrate the weakness of current health care model based on people’s spontaneous demand. It is necessary to adopt a new health system for the entire population, regardless of the self-awareness that people may have about their own health/disease status. It would be a more inclusive, effective and efficient healthcare model
AGUTER a platform for Automated Generation of User Acceptance TEsts from Requirements Specifications
This article proposes a strategy to make the testing step easier, generating User Acceptance Tests (UATs) in an automatic way from requirements artifacts. [Design/methodology/approach] This strategy is based on two modeling frameworks: Scenarios and Task/method paradigm. Scenarios is a requirement artifact used to describe business processes and requirements, and Task/Method paradigm is a modeling paradigm coming from the Arti-ficial Intelligence field. The proposed strategy is composed of four steps. In the first step, scenarios are described through a semantic wiki website. Then scenarios are automatically translated into a task/method model (step two). In the third step, the Task/method model obtained in step two is executed in order to produce and store all possible achievements of tasks and thus scenarios. The stored achievements are saved in a data structure called execution tree. Finally, from this execution tree (step four), the user acceptance tests are generated. [Findings] The feasibility of this strategy is shown through a case study coming from the agriculture production systems field. [Originality/value] Generally, test design approaches deal with a small number of variables describing one specific situation where a decision table or workflow is used to design tests. Our proposed approach can deal with many variables because we rely on scenarios that can be composed in order to obtain a tree with all the testing paths that can arise from their description
Procesos relacionales y despliegue de grandezas para el desarrollo de emprendimientos de base tecnológica: trayectorias emprendedoras en egresados de Ingeniería en Diseño de Productos de la Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María, Chile (2006-2015)
Advirtiendo el reducido número de trabajos al interior del campo del diseño que pusieran atención sobre el desarrollo de procesos emprendedores de base tecnológica y superando una mirada reduccionista orientada sobre posiciones económicas, este trabajo se propuso desarrollar un estudio cuyo alcance descriptivo y correlacional permitiera poner en cuestión la presencia de condiciones emprendedoras en las trayectorias de agentes que en el ejercicio profesional, buscan insertarse establemente en el mercado laboral chileno. Su propósito, ha sido desarrollar un análisis de la formación emprendedora de base tecnológica en Ingeniería en Diseño de Productos (IDP) de la Universidad Técnica Federico Santa María, poniendo en tensión el vínculo existente entre aquellas estructuras particulares del naciente campo profesional surgidas en una sociedad que abrazó el neoliberalismo económico, con aquellas micro-estrategias transformadas en recorridos profesionales por egresados en su afán por incorporarse al campo profesional. Ello hace evidente, la necesidad de avanzar desde la observación de macro estructuras que dan cuenta de juegos de poder en el naciente campo profesional y el posterior estudio de trayectorias de inserción laboral que permitan interrogar la presencia de capitales y grandezas en los egresados. Para finalmente, aproximarse a la particularidad de operaciones proyectuales que, traducidas en productos tecnológicos, se reflejan como evidencias de un actuar relacional. Así la hipótesis general que sostiene esta investigación, establece que “el desarrollo profesional emprendedor y estable de los egresados articula la actitud de emprendimiento como un proceso relacional entre actores, recursos, procesos sociales y condiciones de posibilidad, tecnológicas y económicas”. Busca hacerse cargo de una perspectiva sistémica en torno al proceso emprendedor de base tecnológica, poniendo en tensión aspectos alojados en coyunturas históricas e institucionales, que modelaron procesos formativos de los cuales los 123 egresados de IDP período 2006-2015, constituyen sus herederos y sus trayectorias profesionales, su dimensión medible.Recognizing the limited number of studies within the field of design that focus on the development of technology-based entrepreneurial processes, and moving beyond a reductionist perspective centered on economic factors, this work aimed to develop a descriptive and correlational study that would examine the presence of entrepreneurial conditions in the career paths of individuals seeking stable integration into the Chilean labor market. Its purpose was to analyze technology-based entrepreneurial training in Product Design Engineering (PDE) at the Federico Santa María Technical University, exploring the relationship between the specific structures of this emerging professional field, which arose in a society that embraced economic neoliberalism, and the micro-strategies that graduates develop into professional trajectories in their pursuit of employment. This highlights the need to move beyond observing macro-structures that reveal power dynamics in the emerging professional field, and then to studying career paths that allow us to examine the presence of capital and prestige among graduates. Finally, we can approach the specific design processes that, translated into technological products, reflect evidence of relational activity. Thus, the general hypothesis underpinning this research establishes that "the entrepreneurial and stable professional development of graduates articulates the entrepreneurial attitude as a relational process among actors, resources, social processes, and technological and economic conditions of possibility." It seeks to adopt a systemic perspective on the technology-based entrepreneurial process, highlighting aspects embedded in historical and institutional contexts that shaped the educational processes of which the 123 IDP graduates from 2006-2015 are the heirs, and whose professional trajectories constitute its measurable dimension.Doctor en Diseñ

Pandemic and conservation of freshwater molluscs in Argentina
To date, the impact of the Coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic in Argentina has been quite significant in terms of social activity, but more specifically in terms of scientific field. Completion of research by the present authors on issues related to the conservation and distribution of gastropods and freshwater bivalves from Argentina has been delayed because of laboratories being closed or fieldwork not being possible. Regarding the conservation of the freshwater mollusc fauna of Argentina, there is a relatively high species richness of around 168 species but there are also considerable information and resources gaps when it comes to the study of freshwater molluscs, both native and non-native, the latter also being a threat to native biodiversity. For this purpose, we have taken up the challenge of generating an update of the distributions of the freshwater mollusc taxa of Argentina, as well as their conservation status according to criterion B of regional distribution according to the IUCN. The databases of freshwater molluscs have been updated, based on records in malacological collections, that is, analysis of new pre-pandemic collections, as well as publications since 2008 and 2010. To date, we have finished updating both the list of species, as well as the records for bivalves. For gastropods, the list of species has been fully updated, but the list of records has only been partially updated. For the completed databases, the GEOCat software applied by IUCN has been used to estimate the Extent of Occurrence (EOO) and Area of Occupation (AOO) of each of the species, and thus to determine the level of vulnerability. As a result of this update, we estimate that in Argentina there are 68 species of bivalves and 117 gastropods. Thus the numbers of recorded freshwater mollusc species in Argentina appear to have increased in recent years, rising from 168 to 185
Una aproximación al manejo de cuencas hidrográficas desde el ordenamiento territorial en la Región Metropolitana de Buenos Aires
En este trabajo se propone discutir sobre aquellas conceptualizaciones vinculadas al manejo o gestión de cuenca y al ordenamiento territorial, para luego indagar cómo estas miradas permean los instrumentos y organismos de ordenamiento territorial –actualmente vigentes– que tienen influencia en la Región Metropolitana de Buenos Aires (RMBA). Desde el punto de vista metodológico, se recurrió a la recopilación y análisis de aquellos instrumentos y organismos más representativos que tienen influencia en la RMBA, bibliografía específica, informes técnicos y sitios web oficiales. Los resultados obtenidos evidencian que aún continúan predominando las concepciones más tradicionales de ordenamiento territorial, manejo y gestión de cuencas, y, a su vez, la complejidad ambiental y territorial de la RMBA pareciera que no termina de ser correctamente abordada por tales instrumentos, dadas las múltiples jurisdicciones y el elevado grado de dispersión normativa existente.The aim of this paper is to discuss conceptualizations regarding drainage basin management and spatial planning, later to inquire how these viewpoints influence the instruments and institutions that currently guide the development of such areas in the Metropolitan Region of Buenos Aires (RMBA, Región Metropolitana de Buenos Aires). In terms of methodology, we collated and analyzed the most representative instruments and institutions which influence the RMBA, including specific bibliography, technical reports and official websites. The results show that the traditional conceptualization of both spatial planning and drainage basin management still predominate. In addition, the diverse instruments consulted do not seem to properly attend to the environmental and spatial complexity of the RMBA, given the latter's multiple jurisdictions and the high degree of normative dispersion
(Des)diseñar: formar diseñadores emprendedores para el nuevo escenario
El cambio de paradigma ha dejado al descubierto una necesidad entre los diseñadores industriales de contar con capacidades emprendedoras. Siendo esta, la modalidad más efectiva (si no la única posible) para ejercer la disciplina en la actualidad. La implementación de este enfoque requiere revisar el andamiaje discursivo que viene empleando el diseño para fijar altos estándares inamovibles de complejidad y calidad, reduciendo el campo de acción profesional y acotando las alternativas de intervención. Este artículo considera las dinámicas y tendencias en los modos de vida de las personas, explora posibles estrategias y contenidos específicos para la formación emprendedora que requiere el diseño.The paradigm shift has revealed a need among industrial designers to have entrepreneurial capabilities. This being the most effective modality (if not the only possible one) to exercise discipline today. The implementation of this approach requires reviewing the discursive scaffolding that the design has been using to set immovable high standards of complexity and quality, reducing the field of professional action and limiting the intervention alternatives. This article considers the dynamics and trends in people's lifestyles, explores possible strategies and specific content for the entrepreneurial training that design requires.A mudança de paradigma revelou a necessidade entre os designers industriais de terem capacidades empreendedoras.
