  • AN EXPERIMENT IN THE APPLICATION OF MicrocomputerS TO SMALL FIRMS
    Instituto de Ciências Matemáticas e de Computação, 2019
    Co-Authors: Fabbri, Sandra Camargo Pinto Ferraz
    Abstract:

    Um escritório de corretagem de seguros foi objeto de uma experiência destinada a apoiar por computador suas atividades. A Análise Estruturada foi aplicada na especificação do sistema manual existente. Foram desenhados diagramas de fluxo de da dos conjugados com um dicionário de dados manual, As necessidades do usuário foram identificadas como relativas principalmente ao controle dos vencimentos de pagamentos e das datas de expiração de seguros bem como à recuperação de informações sobre os clientes e capitais segurados. As técnicas de projeto estruturado foram aplicadas em conjunto com programação estruturada para desenvolver uma implementação em dGaseII de um sistema para satisfazer essas necessidades. Um microcomputador tipo Apple com duas unidades de disco flexível e uma impressora foi usado na experiência. Os resultados indicam que a aplicação definitivamente não foi efetiva em termos de custo, principalmente devido ao tempo se recursos financeiros consumidos. Maneiras alternativas para resolver problemas de processamento de dados de micro empresas com microcomputadores são examinadas no trabalho. Quarenta e duas referências bibliográficas são discutidas nesse contexto. A experiência leva à conclusão de que para que microcomputadores possam ser aplicados efetivamente em termos de custo a micro empresas é necessário que esforços de pesquisas sejam concentrados em tornar mais expedito o esforço de análise.A small insurance brokerage firm has been the object of an experiment aiming to computer aid its activities. Structured analysis has been applied in the specification of the existing manual system. Data flow diagrams have been drafted together with a manual data dictionary. User requirements have been identified as refering mainly to payments due and insurance expiration date control as well as customer information and policy amount retrieval. Structured design techniques: have been applied to gether with structured programming to develop an\" implementation in dBaseIl of a system to satisfy these requirements. An Apple like Microcomputer with two floppy disk drives and a printer has been used in the experiment. Results indicate that this application has definitely not been cost effective mainly due to analysis time and cost consumption. Alternative ways for solving small: firms data processing problems with Microcomputers are examined in the paper. Forthy-two bibliographic references are discussed in this context. The experiment leads to the conclusion that research efforts should concentrate in expeding the analysis ef fort if Microcomputers are to be cost effectivelly applied to small firms

  • automated nerve fibre size and myelin sheath measurement using Microcomputer based digital image analysis theory method and results
    Journal of Neuroscience Methods, 1994
    Co-Authors: Roland N Auer
    Abstract:

    Abstract In either clinical or research settings, manual measurement and counting of myelinated fibres in peripheral nerve is tedious and error-prone, yet fully automatic computerized counting and measuring of fibres fails to count small fibres and eliminate extraneous profiles in the tissue. This article describes an operator-interactive, semiautomated method for quantification of myelinated nerve fibre data using commercially available hardware and software on an inexpensive, yet full-featured image analysis system based on a Microcomputer. Software macros automate the acquisition of data from the microscope images and the production of numerical and graphic data, with output to either paper hardcopy or 35 mm colour slides. User control is retained for dynamic thresholding, binary image creation and elimination of artifacts. In addition to generating the classic histogram showing the size distribution of nerve fibres, the thickness and variability of myelin sheaths are also graphically depicted. The method is based on measurement of myelin area and total perimeter, with calculation of equivalent circles and diameters for both axon and nerve fibre. Measured fibre sizes are thus somewhat larger than those resulting from manual methods using the minor diameter of an oval profile, or mean diameter of crenated or irregular profiles. The method allows the rapid measurement and counting of numbers of fibres previously impossible to assess manually, or using digitizing tablets. By increasing the speed and accuracy of data acquisition and processing using widely available Microcomputers, the method may allow a better description of peripheral nerve changes in research and clinical settings.
