A importância de políticas de saúde baseadas em ciência de dados
O professor Fábio Kon, professor da USP de ciência da computação e coordenador do InterSCity, conta que apesar da infinidade de dados sobre o sistema público de saúde, grande parte é pouco utilizada por governos para elaborar e aprimorar políticas públicas.
Lei em vigor na cidade de São Paulo desde 1º de janeiro de 2017, o Programa Bike SP, que prevê créditos para quem troca o deslocamento motorizado —de carro ou transporte público— pelo deslocamento em bicicleta, ainda não foi implementado.
Dois artigos interessantes publicados na 46ª edição da revista Computação Brasil (CB), onde o primeiro trata sobre “Software Livre: Pré-requisito para a Ciência Aberta” (páginas 12 a 15 da revista) dos autores Christina von Flach e Fabio Kon e o segundo intitulado por “Cidadãos comuns ajudando no combate ao desmatamento das florestas tropicais” (páginas 20 a 23 da revista) dos autores Fernanda Dallaqua, Álvaro Fazenda, e Fabio Faria.

“El automóvil será solamente una infraestructura a la que se accederá a pedido”, supone el científico de la computación Fabio Kon, del IME-USP. A su juicio, esta nueva realidad ofrecerá ventajas, tales como una mejora de la movilidad urbana y la seguridad vial, se reducirán drásticamente los accidentes y se liberarán para fines urbanísticos grandes espacios en zonas privilegiadas que actualmente se destinan al estacionamiento.
Un estudio realizado por Kon y su equipo en el ámbito del Instituto Nacional de Ciencia y Tecnología de Internet del Futuro para Ciudades Inteligentes (InterSCity), con el apoyo de la FAPESP, simuló cómo sería la avenida Paulista, en la capital del estado de São Paulo, si fuera transitada solamente por vehículos autónomos. Los resultados salieron publicados en febrero del año pasado en la revista científica Simulation Modelling Practice and Theory.

The project began in February 2018 and was developed by a partnership between InterSCity and Guiaderodas. More than a dozen of databases was analyzed to identify which are the regions with the best accessibility conditions according to some criteria related to urban mobility. The results were in Free Wheels portal, besides the interactive map with scores of each region.
