This article aims to present the Information and Knowledge Management Plan, which aims to support the processes of creation, acquisition, sharing, storage, (re)use, protection and transfer of information and knowledge, proposed for a Research and Development Project for the sponsor enterprise/client - Celesc Distribution, company from the electricity sector in Santa Catarina and executed by the Institute of Studies and Energy Management – INERGE. The project is part of the RD program of the National Electric Energy Agency - ANEEL in accordance with the law number no 9.991/2000. The theoretical reference is based on the areas of Project Management and Knowledge Management. Methodologically it is characterized as an interorganizational, interproject research of experimental development. The results are not effective yet, due to the little time of implementation of the project. However it may be inferred that the systematization of the information and knowledge from a single environment, in addition to giving support to the development of the activities of the project teams, will support the processes of information and knowledge management and, essentially, the transfer of the information and knowledge from the executor company and its partners to the sponsor/client company.

<p>A criação das agências reguladoras no Brasil baseou-se nos modelos Americano e Britânico de regulamentação os quais, apresentavam condições históricas, sociais, políticas e sistema jurídico distintos do Brasileiro. Considerando este importante aspecto, o artigo tem por objetivo retomar o cenário de implantação das agências nestes países, apontando as particularidades do setor elétrico. O estudo avaliará ainda a assimetria de informações e o poder de coesão e influência regulatória dos agentes do setor, em relação à possibilidade de desvios de finalidade da Agência Nacional de Energia Elétrica (ANEEL). A discussão sobre o conceito de regulação e sua eficácia se inicia nos EUA na década de 1970 quando seus principais teóricos (Stigler, Posner e Peltzman) criticam a ideia de que as agências são eficientes em corrigir os desequilíbrios dos mercados e que atuam em prol do interesse público. Assim, as agências deste país, a partir da década de 1980, sofrem restrições à sua autoridade, controle judicial e competências. Na contramão deste movimento nas décadas de 1980 e 1990, são criadas na Inglaterra e no Brasil respectivamente, as agências de regulação como autarquias especiais as quais possuem autonomia administrativa e financeira além de estabilidade dos dirigentes. Sua criação se fez necessária com a privatização das empresas estatais.</p><p> </p><p>The creation of regulatory agencies in Brazil was based on the American and British regulatory models which, however, had historical, social, political and legal system completely distinct from the Brazilian. Considering this important aspect, this study aims to resume the scenario that occurred the implementation of the regulatory framework in these countries, pointing to the particularities of the electricity sector. The study will also assess information asymmetry and power of cohesion and regulatory influence of the agents of the sector, related to deviations from the National Electric Energy Agency (ANEEL). The discussion on the concept of regulation and its effectiveness begins in the US from the 1970s when its main theoreticians (Stigler, Posner and Peltzman) criticized the idea that the regulatory agencies are effective in correcting the imbalances of markets and act in the public interest. For this reason, agencies of this country, from the 1980s, are restricted to their authority, and judicial powers. Against this act, England and Brazil in the late 1980s and 1990s, respectively, created the regulatory agencies as special municipalities which have administrative and financial autonomy as well as stability leaders and fixed term. Their creation was necessary given the privatization of state companies.</p>

AbstractThe aim of this article is to describe a novel ICT-centred methodology and software toolchain to enhance the management of a Smart Campus. The project will be implemented at the University of Campinas through a partnership between UNICAMP, CPFL (local Utility Distribution Company) and the University of Southern Denmark. This project was recently submitted to a strategic and priority call from the Brazilian Regulatory Agency (National Electric Energy Agency – ANEEL, acronym in Portuguese). The project integrates energy efficiency with research and development in distributed generation with an innovative IoT-based DMS energy management tool. These actions comply with the ISCN/GULF Sustainable Campus Chapter policies, signed by UNICAMP a few years ago. This paper is important because it will result in a replicable model for sustainable campuses, with a detailed step-by-step procedure covering local mini-grid EMS, IoT DMS, Mobility, real-time retrofitted efficiency and institutional energy governance.

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate the value of using a systematic literature review to develop an integrated framework for information and knowledge management systems. Design/methodology/approach First, the systematic literature review method is introduced, differentiating it from traditional literature reviews in terms of value-added and limitations. Second, this methodology is used in a research application focused on absorptive capacity internal capabilities with regard to the processes of acquisition, assimilation, transformation and exploitation. Third, an integrated framework for information and knowledge management systems is developed from this application. Findings The systematic literature review approach provides a rigor that can assist in reducing researcher bias while simultaneously enabling the definition of a precise scope of review, with a clear explanation of selection criteria with the objective to find and review all the studies that are relevant to the search definitions. As a research method, it effectively supports a qualitative, quantitative or mixed methodology. Research limitations/implications This methodology was applied to one specific area of research. Specific limitations include the availability of articles in subscribed databases and the analytical capabilities of the tools used for text mining and analytics. Originality/value This paper demonstrates the usefulness of the systematic literature review methodology in developing an integrated framework for analysis.

Das FDM (Fused Deposition Modeling)-Verfahren ist aufgrund der Vielzahl von industriellen und privaten Anwendungen gegenwärtig das erfolgreichste 3D-Druck-Verfahren. Ziel des Forschungs- und Entwicklungsprojektes „HP3D“ ist die effiziente Herstellung von großformatigen Bauteilen in einem echten 3D-Verfahren aus frei wählbaren thermoplastischen Kunststoffen. An die Umsetzung des Projekts wurde sehr komplex herangegangen, um zu garantieren, dass die mechanischen und dynamischen Eigenschaften der aufgebauten Teile den konzipierten Eigenschaften entsprechen. &nbsp; The FDM process is currently the most successful 3D printing process due to the multitude of industrial and private applications. The aim of the research and development project HP3D is the efficient production of large-format components in a real 3D process made of freely selectable thermoplastics. The implementation of the project has been very complex in order to ensure that the mechanical and dynamic properties of the assembled parts correspond to the designed properties.

<p class="apa">The Academic Knowledge Management Model of Small Schools in Thailand was created by research and development. The quantitative and qualitative data were collected via the following steps: a participatory workshop meeting, the formation of a team according to knowledge base, field study, brainstorming, group discussion, activities carried out according to knowledge, summarizing and revising the operation, organizing an exhibition to show the work results, and the creation of a website. The results showed that the subjects had knowledge of how to manage knowledge, became more academically capable, and were satisfied with knowledge management at the highest level.</p>
