Brazilian Graduate Programs are evaluated by a specific foundation, CAPES. This evaluation qualifies the respective program with a grade, and this directly influences the permissions and funds assigned to this program, such as having a doctorate level, grading 4 or higher. One of the indicators is the student body, as an external variable outside the control of the program. Based on the Design Science Research methodology, we present a research on the construction of an artifact that clears up the selection of candidates for the programs, categorizing them according to the profiles of previous students, based on descriptive statistics and data analytics.

Atualmente as organizações são desafiadas na tentativa de fazer com que seus clientes se aproximem e possam contribuir na inovação e melhoria de seus processos de negócio. Neste contexto, percebeu-se que estas melhorias passam pela compreensão dos processos pelos clientes tornando-os aptos a contribuir. Esta pesquisa explorou o design de jogos digitais como alternativa atrativa para que as pessoas possam compreender como um processo de negócio de prestação de serviço é executado. Através da Design Science Research Methodology (DSRM) o método Play Your Process (PYP) foi concebido, tendo como objetivo guiar o game designer na construção destes jogos. Com o método PYP foi possível desenvolver e demonstrar os jogos digitais baseados em processos de negócio em diferentes contextos, sendo estes, avaliados com o público (cidadãos) quanto a sua qualidade e a ferramenta para promover a compreensão do processo de negócio (serviço). Assim, o método usa modelo de processos de negócio como base para a criação do jogo, e ao mesmo tempo o jogo digital busca representar o modelo de processo de negócio para a compreensão do jogador. O método PYP demonstrou ser útil para isso, ao fornecer suporte ao projeto de jogos digitais baseados em processos de negócio.

Effective execution of collaborative tasks during enterprise architecture creation helps to increase stakeholders' involvement and awareness in the architecture effort. However, enterprise architecture approaches lack detailed support for collaborative tasks. In an effort to address this, an exploratory survey was conducted among enterprise architects to investigate issues associated with executing collaborative tasks during enterprise architecture creation. Accordingly, this paper discusses mainly three aspects. First, it discusses how issues that were reported in the survey can be addressed by adopting the design science research methodology to guide the development of a process or method that supports the execution of collaborative tasks in architecture creation. The developed process is principally rooted in collaboration engineering and soft systems methodology (SSM). Second, the paper discusses how the developed method can be used to supplement enterprise architecture approaches that are used in practice (e.g. TOGAF) with support for executing collaborative tasks. Third, the paper discusses key findings from evaluating the developed process in two real organizations.

Software Engineering principles have connections with design science, including cybersecurity concerns pertaining to vulnerabilities, trust and reputation. The work of this paper surveys, identifies, establishes and explores these connections. Identification and addressing of security issues and concerns during the early phases of software development life cycle, especially during the requirements analysis and design phases; and importance of inclusion of security requirements have also been illustrated. In addition to that, effective and efficient strategies and techniques to prevent, mitigate and remediate security vulnerabilities by the application of the principles of trust modelling and design science research methodology have also been presented.

Πληθώρα κυβερνήσεων και κυβερνητικών οργανισμών σε όλο τον κόσμο πραγματοποιούν μεγάλες επενδύσεις για την ανάπτυξη πληροφοριακών συστημάτων που βοηθούν στη δημοσίευση των δεδομένων που έχουν στην κατοχή τους ώστε να τα καταστίσουν κοινώς προσβάσιμα, προκειμένου να χρησιμοποιούνται για επιστημονικούς, εμπορικούς και πολιτικούς σκοπούς. Επομένως, κρίνεται πολύ σημαντική η ανάπτυξη προηγμένων υποδομών ανοιχτών κυβερνητικών δεδομένων, οι οποίες όχι μόνο θα δημοσιεύουν τα στοιχεία της κυβέρνησης, αλλά και θα παρέχουν τις κατάλληλες δυνατότητες για την παραγωγή ατομικής και συλλογικής αξίας από αυτά. Είναι επίσης απαραίτητο για την ανάπτυξη, τόσο των «παραδοσιακών» όσο και των προηγμένων υποδομών ανοικτών κυβερνητικών δεδομένων, να κατανοηθεί η αξία που δημιουργείται από τη δημοσίευση τέτοιων δεδομένων και συγχρόνως πώς, δεδομένου ότι αυτό είναι ένα σχετικά νέο είδος των πληροφοριακών συστημάτων, μπορούν να προσδιοριστούν οι κύριες βελτιώσεις και οι προτεραιότητες κατά την ανάπτυξη των υποδομών αυτών. Προσπαθώντας να συμπληρώσουμε αυτό το ερευνητικό κενό και ακολουθώντας τη μεθοδολογία ανάπτυξης και σχεδιασμού επιστημονικών αντικειμένων (Design Science Research Methodology), πέντε ερευνητικά ερωτήματα διατυπώθηκαν με στόχο την περαιτέρω εξέλιξη αυτού του πεδίου έρευνας. Μια λεπτομερής επισκόπηση της βιβλιογραφίας και η δημιουργία μιας ταξονομίας είχε ως αποτέλεσμα την αναγνώριση των βασικών ερευνητικών περιοχών του τομέα (Open Government Data - OGD). Εν συνεχεία, πραγματοποιήθηκε η ανάπτυξη ενός μοντέλου με σκοπό την ανάλυση των σύγχρονων υποδομών ανοιχτών κυβερνητικών δεδομένων καθώς και η ανάλυση των μεγαλύτερων υποδομών παγκοσμίως. Μετά τα αποτελέσματα των παραπάνω μελετών, ακολούθησε ο προσδιορισμός των απαιτήσεων βασισμένος στην μεθοδολογία ανάπτυξης σεναρίων χρήσης και η υλοποίηση της υποδομής νέας γενιάς. Επιπλέον, ένα πλαίσιο αξιολόγησης αναπτύχθηκε και εφαρμόστηκε οδηγώντας την ανάπτυξη των επόμενων εκδόσεων της υποδομής. Τέλος, μια νέα πλατφόρμα πραγματοποιήθηκε με στόχο την εφαρμογή της στο ελληνικό τοπίο, ώστε να ενισχύσει την παραγωγή αξίας ως προς τη συνεργατική και προσωπική χρήση των OGD. Ερευνώντας τα πέντε βασικά ερωτήματα της διατριβής, διάφορα άλλα ζητήματα προέκυψαν, τα οποία μπορούν να χαρακτηριστούν μείζονος σημασίας για την ανάπτυξη μιας υποδομής ανοιχτών κυβερνητικών δεδομένων. Τα ζητήματα αυτά έχουν συζητηθεί στα συμπεράσματα και έχουν ενσωματωθεί στον ευρύτερο ερευνητικό τομέα των ανοιχτών δεδομένων αρθρώνοντας και καθοδηγώντας τη μελλοντική έρευνα.

Em Alagoas, o monitoramento dos rios é feito com sensores de radar e de nível que enviam informações, via Rádio e Satélite, a cada hora, sobre nível e vazão. No entanto, uma enchente de grandes proporções pode acontecer em minutos, daí a importância de um sistema de monitoramento em tempo real. Este trabalho apresenta o IOTFlood, uma plataforma de hardware e software que gera alertas sobre possíveis desastres naturais, enviando mensagens em tempo real sobre situação dos rios, bem como notificações e alertas à população. Trata-se de uma pesquisa aplicada, que utilizou Design Science Research Methodology (DSRM). Para avaliação, foram realizados experimentos em laboratório e em ambiente natural.

Email is an imperative method of communication that is changing the way people share their data and information. It provides effective and efficient communication, especially in business, convenience, and easy access and replication. Those electronic data should be considered by a fraud investigator to comprehend the investigation. Email can be divided into two parts: the head of the email and the email body. The head of the email is metadata that consists of unstructured data, and the body and its attachment consist of semi-structured data. The email data usually comes in large volumes and ranges of types. Therefore, a manual investigation of an email should be avoided. This paper uses the Design Science Research Methodology to discover the most profound framework in an email fraud investigation. Using email metadata and email body, this research performs a digital forensic framework: preparation, gathering, processing, and presentation, combines with social network analysis to be applicable in the investigation. The result shows that digital forensics process, network analysis, data visualization provides a more valuable and comprehensive insight into email analysis.
