A maioria dos sistemas de visão computacional voltados para monitoramento urbano baseia-se em métricas obtidas por câmeras isoladas, o que limita a capacidade de análise em larga escala. Este trabalho propõe um sistema modular e leve, capaz de operar em dispositivos embarcados de forma descentralizada, permitindo a geração de novos dados correlacionados entre múltiplos pontos de monitoramento. Com essa abordagem, torna-se possível obter métricas como tempos de percurso e rotas mais utilizadas, contribuindo para a melhoria da gestão do tráfego e para o planejamento urbano estratégico.

DSpace 7 has been extended with "Configurable Entities" in response to a growing need for describing more types of objects and relations between objects as well as compound objects; examples include: authors, projects, datasets, grants, lecture series, ... . This talk will do a deeper dive into the new Configurable Entities feature, including how to configure your DSpace to support different object models and how users can create the relations between items. New concepts in DSpace 7 such as relations between items, virtual metadata, display options per object type, … will be introduced. Defining an object model through configuration in DSpace 7 is made possible without using specific hardcoded Java classes for the specific objects. To achieve this the concept starts from the current DSpace Item object and extends it, also allowing institutions to keep using DSpace out-of-the-box with its familiar object model. The entities in a custom object model are items that can be typed, and relations between items of different types can be created. Several different object models can be defined and can exist alongside one another in the same repository. Finally, this talk will briefly touch on the next steps for future versions of DSpace.

DSpace 7 is a major step in the evolution of the DSpace platform and repositories in general. While retaining its ease-of-use, out-of-the-box goals, DSpace 7 features a brand new, client-side, responsive user interface (built on Angular), a full-featured, self-describing REST API, a powerful new configurable object model (featuring typed Items and relations between Items), and alignment with the COAR Next Generation Repositories recommendations (via a new ResourceSync interface and Signposting support). This workshop, which provides the first comprehensive training on DSpace 7.0, will be split into two half day sessions: * Basic Training: The first half day will concentrate on installing or upgrading to DSpace 7 (Audience: Anyone). Activities will include overview of install/upgrade process, new features, new configuration options, and hands-on UI branding. * Advanced Training: The second half day will concentrate on advanced customization of DSpace 7 (Audience: Developer oriented). Hands-on activities will include advanced enhancement of the UI (beyond basic branding), how to use the REST API, and contributing back.

According to recent assessments from the Italian Istituto Superiore della Sanità, information and assistance to smokers are still far from satisfactory. We evaluated the impact of a new smoking cessation service located in pharmacies. Smokers' individual characteristics were also considered. A 1-year pilot study was carried out from October 2010 to September 2011. Five pharmacies in Milan were selected. A psychologist with experience in smoking cessation was present in each pharmacy one afternoon per week, and pharmacists were trained by a team from the Antismoking Center of the Fondazione IRCCS Istituto Nazionale dei Tumori. Each pharmacy was equipped with informative material, carbon monoxide analyzers, and motivational and nicotine dependence questionnaires, in addition to a clinical briefcase. Counseling sessions were also arranged upon request. In the first 12 months of activity, 216 persons asked for a consultation. The sample, aged 15-79 years, reported the following median values: 30 pack/years, 14 ppm CO, and a Fagerström Test of Nicotine Dependence score of 5. More than one-third of the sample (40.3%) had one pathology and 25% had more than one. In some cases (15.7%), people just wanted information about what the service offered. For those who tried to quit, smoking cessation rates were 33.3% at 3 months, 28% at 6 months, and 24.6% at 1 year. Three kinds of pharmacologic therapies were suggested to smokers: nicotine replacement therapy (75.5%), varenicline (17.5%), and bupropion (7%). The results show that an accessible and free smoking cessation service is considered useful by smokers as demonstrated by the large number of requests compared with other smoking centers in Italy. Increased involvement of pharmacists in supporting smoking cessation makes this a promising initiative for the near future.

The COS-B source CG135+1 (ref. 1) is an extremely interesting object because of its possible identification with the QSO 0241+622. Radio observations have identified a strong point source within 2 arc s (ref. 2) of QSO 0241+622. X-ray emissions have also been observed from this region of the sky by the Uhuru (ref. 3), SAS-3 (ref. 2) and HEAO-A (ref. 4) telescopes. The HEAO-A (A1) data indicate that there are two soft X-ray sources in this region of the sky, H0241+62 which contains the QSO, and H0235+60 which includes the radio source GT0236+61 (ref. 5). The OSO-7 data in the energy range 1–40 keV (ref. 6) and measurements using the high-energy X-ray experiment on Ariel-V between 0.26 and 1.2 MeV (ref. 7) have indicated that the photon emission from this region of the sky is of an extremely hard nature, with a power law spectral index of γ≈1.0. However, the poor angular resolution of these telescopes make it uncertain whether the high-energy X-ray fluxes are due to the same celestial object. We now report the results of a balloon flight carried out on 8 October 1978 from Palestine, Texas, in which the region of the sky including the COS-B source CG135+1 was scanned by the Milan/Southampton telescope (MISO telescope). A 5σ excess in the counting rate of the telescope in the energy range 0.15–20 MeV was observed. The origin of this low-energy γ-ray emission is compatible with the measured position of CG135+1.
