Hello!

For this week’s assignment (I do not know if it is Project’s or Seminar’s), students were asked to think about the scope of their projects in order to find ways to adapt them to business contexts.

Before accomplishing this task, I would like to enlarge upon the project’s developments.

First of all it is important to understand the two parts of the project so that you can comprehend it's scope.

The first part of the project is related to the conceiving of an Interactive Multi-Touch System at the University of Aveiro – called PontoUA. A prototype will be developed and it will be available at the Communication and Art’s Department - I will call it PontoDeCA for now. The second component is associated with the personalization of the obtained information.

It is imperative to stress that my dissertation will only be focused on the second module of the project, which is related to the possibility of giving personalized information to the final users of PontoDeCA, based on their preferences/needs. I haven’t decided yet which technologies will be used for that purpose, so I will make this week's assignment based on the concept and not on the technology.

I will also be assuming that the selected technology will not interfere with the concept, although I am aware that it does not occur that way.

This is all for today, hope you read the assignment's post I will write tomorow.

Farewell. :)
