Epidemiological surveillance of Tuberculosis (TB) requires a strong integration of different health services, programs and levels of care. The deepening and broadening of data management techniques must be constantly carried out to increase the integrality of healthcare. Otherwise, knowledge extraction and clinical and administrative decision-making processes are significantly hampered, directly affecting the management and quality of health services. Thus, this work aims to establish a computerized decision support system capable of collecting, integrating and sharing TB health data in Brazilian Unified Public Health System. Also, it will allow the monitoring of infected patients and the visualization of consolidated information of regular TB and its resistant variants for health professionals and managers. The data will be made available from heterogeneous, disconnected and unstructured sources by combining traditional web services, Semantic Web resources and security algorithms. A solid knowledge base applied to epidemiological surveillance, health information governance and clinical support will be enabled to integrate the multiple areas of TB patients care, as well as to support the creation of more accurate operational and diagnostics models.

This paper addresses the problem of the worldwide electricity consumption increase, namely in the building sector, with the focus on the office (banking) market segment. Buildings are dynamic entities, with constantly changing needs and occupancy. An energy audit shows only a snapshot of the building profile because it is driven at a specific time, and utility bills can be viewed as "rear-view mirror" since they only show past consumptions and not real-time consumptions. In this way, this paper presents an energy monitoring and remote management methodology for the banking sector and the case study accomplished in one of the most well established Portuguese banks. The presented methodology reached measured annual savings of 18,5% of the total consumption of the 19 central buildings and the 358 branches involved in the project.
Semantic Web technologies are intertwined with decision-making processes. In this paper the general objectives of the semantic web tools are reviewed and characterized, as well as the categories of decision support to...
