Abstract: Mobile devices have become ubiquitous in the recent years, but the complaints about energy consumption are almost universal. On Android, the developer can choose among several different approaches to develop an app. This presentation shows our investigation on the impact of some of the most popular development approaches on the energy consumption of Android apps. Our study used a testbed of 33 different benchmarks and 4 applications on 5 different devices to compare the energy efficiency and performance of the most commonly used approaches to develop apps on Android: Java,

Abstract: We analyze the impacts on the urban form of a large Brazilian public housing program—Programa Minha Casa Minha Vida (PMCMV). Our aim in this paper is to determine whether the program impacts urban sprawl and its trend. We analyze 18 metropolitan areas using satellite images and other datasets to compare municipalities where the program was more intense with municipalities where the program produces housing below the median.
When: Friday, March 23th, 2018, 9:00 AM.
Where: Sala H-312C, GTA/UFRJ.
The objective of this presentation is to introduce the new paradigm that will be used from 2020: the “Plug &Network” concept. This concept allows to derive new network architectures ranging from a completely centralized architecture to a fully distributed solution. We will examine the pros and cons of these different architectures to try to imagine architectures that should be deployed in the 2020s.
When: Thursday, March 22th, 2018, 12:00.
Where: Sala H-312C, GTA/UFRJ.
The objective of this seminar is to examine new solutions for securing data networks and the solutions that will be implemented in the short and long term. We will examine the solutions based on secure elements, Cloud of security, blockchain, new generation firewall, big data, machine learning, etc. We will look at how to implement them in the four major network architectures for the 2020s that will integrate 5G,
During the summer program at IME-USP, 4 projects were developed in the Smart Cities discipline:

The GTA/UFRJ team, headed by Prof. Otto Carlos, developed the tool called “CATRACA: a scalable traffic classifier and analyzer” for analyzing big stream data and classifying in real-time threat from normal network traffic. The work developed by the team of Prof. Duarte was recently awarded with the “Best Tool Award” during the Simpósio Brasileiro em Segurança da Informação e de Sistemas Computacionais (SBSeg’2017). Moreover, the research has been going on for two years and it was also awarded with the “Best Paper Award” of the 1st Cyber Security in Networking Conference (CSNet’2017) on October 2017,

Abstract: In the context of future Cloud Radio Access Networks (CRAN), optical networks will play an important role to provide the required transport capacity between cell-sites and processing pools, especially for future 5G scenarios. For instance, using CPRI fronthaul technologies a single antenna element can generate data up to 24.3Gbps even with current configurations of radio transmissions, and it is expected to generate up to Tbps with the advance of technology.

Abstract: A growing number of cities are now making urban data freely available to the public. These initiatives, however, are fairly recent and the landscape of open urban data is still not well known. In the first part of the talk, Luciano Barbosa (CIn/UFPE) will present a study that takes a first step toward understanding the current landscape of open urban data to better assess the challenges and opportunities for finding,
As novas tecnologias apresentam um enorme potencial para contribuir positivamente com as nossas cidades e seus cidadãos. No entanto, elas podem também trazer sérios problemas à privacidade e segurança desses mesmos cidadãos e, caso não aplicadas corretamente, podem exacerbar ao invés de diminuir as desigualdades sociais e os preconceitos já existentes na sociedade. O INCT da Internet do Futuro para Cidades Inteligentes traz 5 especialistas para discutir aspectos éticos das Cidades Inteligentes e da IA no IME-USP. Contamos com a sua presença ou e-presença!
Semana Nacional de Ciência e Tecnologia.
Quando: Quinta-feira, 26 de Outubro às 10h.
Onde: EACH | USP (Auditório Verde).
As atividades de mobilidade urbana, como a operação de serviços de transporte público, são grandes produtoras de dados. Parte desses dados é disponibilizada pela prefeitura de São Paulo como dados governamentais abertos, o que também demonstra a importância da mobilidade urbana para políticas de governo aberto e transparência governamental. O painel ora proposto pretende apresentar as possibilidades de aperfeiçoamento,

Prof. Alex Telea offered a presentation on how to unify scientific visualization (SciVis) and information visualization (InfoVis).
When: Thursday, September 28th, 2017, 2:00 PM.
Where: Auditório Jacy Monteiro, IME- USP.
Abstract: For decades, scientific visualization (SciVis) and information visualization (InfoVis) have been related, but still distinctly separated disciplines. Methods and techniques in the two areas have developed relatively separately, causing an arguably unnecessarily separation in the visualization field. Attempts for unification exist,
On September 29th, 2017, Ricardo Massa Ferreira Lima presented the REFlex Water engine.
Abstract: This project proposes the conception of a novel water management framework, called REFlex Water, that uses declarative business processes to specify the management policies and to control the actions of water managers. The main component of REFlex Water is the REFlex Rule Engine, which analyzes the rules of the declarative business process to identify inconsistencies or threats to the correct execution of the process.
On June 5th, 2017, InterSCity and INES 2.0 jointly presented a GUI for creating Complex Event Processing (CEP) rules, using a Model-Driven Development (MDD) template.
