With the grown availability of large and specialized online ontologies, the questions about the integration of independently developed ontologies have become even more important. To facilitate the ontology integration process, this paper presents an ontology integration support module, that promotes the creation of new ontologies by reusing others. The hypothesis is that the ontology designer will achieve a reduction in the time dedicated to create a new ontology, as well as obtain ontologies with better quality. The experimental use of the prototype developed showed evidence that the hypothesis can be confirmed.

In this paper we present the architecture for the Personal Autonomic Desktop Manager, a self managing application designed to act on behalf of the user in several aspects: protection, healing, optimization and configuration. The overall goal of this research is to improve the correlation of the autonomic self* properties and doing so also enhance the overall self-management capacity of the desktop (autonomicity). We introduce the Circulatory Computing (CC) model, a self-managing system initiative based on the biological metaphor of the cardiovascular system, and use its concepts in the design and implementation of the architecture.

The advance of Internet and mobile technologies makes the use of these elements become increasingly comprehensive, and distance learning is an area that takes many advantages of these technologies. Some tools and systems help this process, but the most important tool is e-learning. A more contemporary version of e-learning is the one found in mobiles devices, the m-learning system. The rapid advance of these technologies and their high dissemination determine this area as an important point in the decision makers' learning process. Following this point of view, this paper proposes a learning tool involving aspects of e-learning and m-learning for negotiators. This work will discuss how these tools can support professionals during the learning process of preparation step of negotiations. What is more, comparative and initial results will also be presented.
