Unfortunately, the world is going through extensive famine crisis, homelessness, inequalities and numerous precarious situations which much has to say, but little is done to change. Given the urgent need to ensure the survival of the world, was created the “Earth Charter”, drafted by 23 representatives from several countries that met to ensure a planet where everyone can live with dignity, having access to the resources needed to build a sustainable Earth, more egalitarian and better living. This paper aims to discuss and raise awareness, at first, with Metallurgical Engineering students during the seventh edition of the technological fair IPUC - Polytechnic Institute of PUC Minas, addressing the issues raised by the document, providing reflection and dialogue about the principles of the Earth Charter with the participants and other exhibitors at the event. For such purpose, we developed a game called “Earth Charter game” consisting of a wheel with 16 numbers - each representing a charter `principle' and their subjects, in order to facilitate dialogue about the countless challenges faced by future professionals not only of Metallurgical Engineering but all other areas. This project aims to place this discussion in other engineering courses at PUC Minas and also, in a didactic way, insert it into primary and secondary schools. From the constructive and thoughtful dialogue generated by the project, you can apply the principles discussed in the daily life of each person, in order to have a sustainable and careful development relative to the Earth, including its population and ecosystem in general. This paper's advisers participates in the SIGHT PUC Minas.","PeriodicalId":178502,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Canada International Humanitarian Technology Conference (IHTC2015)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129852082","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The scope of this work goes beyond the humanitarian aspects of health care. It also covers some managing aspects of the clinical setting by means of controlling the allocation of human and material resources. The project consists on the development of a monitoring system that registrates the flow of physicians and staff throughout the ICU. This system is integrated to the medical records of the clinical procedures performed on patients in the ICU. The main technological basis used in the system is infrared (IR), a simple technology and low cost, attached to the health care professionals' nametags, which enables the tracking of their presence in the ICU. The data collected on the nametags is transmitted to software (open source) that works as a communication feed to a model of management matrix.This system provides important information regarding hospital management, such as the use of medical resources and the hospitalization period of patients, at the same time that is attached to the patient's medical record. As a result, this database would allow for an improvement in the provided services' quality once it generates useful information for a more effective hospital management. Furthermore, this paper also highlights important issues regarding the implementation of technological projects in health and emergency environments.This work emphasize the results of the inclusion of ethics, moral, environmental and humanistic principles in the education of engineers at the Pontifical Catholic University of Minas Gerais - PUC Minas.","PeriodicalId":178502,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Canada International Humanitarian Technology Conference (IHTC2015)","volume":"56 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123700069","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim of our work was to study the effect of PEF intensity on the extraction of bioactifs component such as Phycobiliproteins from cyanobacterium microalgae Arthrospira platensis, native from the extreme south of Algeria country (Tamanrasset). Ultrasound (US) was also used for cell disintegration to compare with PEF. The algae was cultivated under controlled conditions in Zarrouk medium (ZM). The Algae was harvested and suspended in phosphate buffer (pH=7) then treated by PEF or US. The Algae was continuously treated by PEF at 38 kV/cm pulse intensity. The pulse duration and frequency were 232 μs and 158 Hz, respectively. The treatment chamber was co-field having treatment volume and gap between electrodes of 0.05 cm3 and 0.1 cm, respectively. The total treatment time was 0.03 s. Regarding the US treatment, the microalgae was subjected to 35 kHz frequency for a maximum of 90 min. The temperature treatment was maintained at 35°C using a cooling system. For both methods used in this study the yield extractions of phycobiliproteins were the same (0.15 mg/mL) with the exception that the purity of the product was higher in PEF than in the US treatment (0.5 compare to 0.44). The PEF and US treatment induced cell disintegration resulted in the release of intracellular matter into suspension. However, PEF was more efficient than US since even it gives the same amount of extractions but with higher purity at lower treatment time (0.03 s compared to 5400 s).","PeriodicalId":178502,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Canada International Humanitarian Technology Conference (IHTC2015)","volume":"8 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124034598","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Understanding the socioeconomic and sociocultural environment of the target community is vital before any project. In this paper, a framework for gaining insights into the rural community of Duli, Ifugao province, Philippines is presented. The framework consists of a questionnaire containing 65 questions that covers various areas such as lifestyle, financial income and expenditure, energy usage and cooking and lighting habits. The questionnaire also probes the community's engagement and excitement towards the project. On the other hand, the steps for developing a management plan for a community-run cooperative (co-op) system are covered. The community members form the general assembly that is responsible for electing the board of directors. The general assembly also sets the constitution and by-laws of the co-op. The board of directors is responsible for hiring the management team that oversees the daily operation and maintenance of the system. Proper financial and technical oversight is ensured by having clear responsibilities and tasks for each member of the management team. The community survey and co-op business plan developed here can serve as guidelines for future rural electrification projects.","PeriodicalId":178502,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Canada International Humanitarian Technology Conference (IHTC2015)","volume":"73 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127714506","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Isabela is the number one corn producer in the country, contributing 22.57% of the national production, housing 20.26% of the national area producing corn. Farmers in this area use traditions and superstitions in making farming decisions. While this worked in the past, the recent progression of climate change has prompted the need for technology to provide advice to farmers so that they may take into consideration the big factors that must be considered when farming namely the atmosphere, cultivar, soil and farm management. This paper presents a Smarter Agriculture solution through precision agriculture. This solution leverages on DSSAT 4.5 with Automated Weather Station (AWS) sensors, numerical climate model, numerical weather model, corn cultivar parameters, SMS technology as well as the expert knowledge of the farmers. The solution is designed for yellow corn farmers in Isabela where farmers have limited Internet connection and have difficulty in using smart phones hence, the use of SMS. This paper will focus on how the solution is developed so that farmers may be able to identify the best date to start planting, best date to harvest, optimal water as well as the projected dry yield for the crop, taking into consideration the climate outlook during the planting season. This allows the farmer to query about the weather outlook for short-term farming decisions such as decisions on whether to apply fertilizer or irrigation during the day.","PeriodicalId":178502,"journal":{"name":"2015 IEEE Canada International Humanitarian Technology Conference (IHTC2015)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2015-09-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"133613377","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
