- Inven!RA Architecture for sustainable deployment of immersive learning environmentsPublication . Morgado, Leonel; Coelho, António; Beck, Dennis; Gütl, Christian; Cassola, Fernando; Baptista, Ricardo; Pedrosa, Daniela; Cruzeiro, Tiago; Cota, Duarte; Grilo, Ricardo; Schlemmer, Eliane; van Zeller, MariaThe objective of this work was to support the sustainable deployment of immersive learning environments, which face varied obstacles, including the lack of support infrastructures for active learning pedagogies. Sustainability from the perspective of the integration of these environments in educational practice entails situational awareness, workload, and the informed assessment ability of participants, which must be supported for such activities to be employed in a widespread manner. We have approached this wicked problem using the Design Science Research paradigm and produced the Inven!RA software architecture. This novel result constitutes a solution for developing software platforms to enable the sustainable deployment of immersive learning environments. The Inven!RA architecture is presented alongside four demonstration scenarios employed in its evaluation, providing a means for the situational awareness of immersive learning activities in support of pedagogic decision making.
- Process automation using RPA: a literature reviewPublication . Moreira, Silvia; São Mamede, Henrique; Santos, ArnaldoBusiness process automation has been gaining more and more space in the management of organizations, since it translates into a reduction in the execution time of routine tasks in an organization, freeing up employees for other more creative and interesting tasks. However, it is important to check what types of processes are eligible, benefits, and challenges in the adoption of RPA technology. Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is a growing trend in business process restructuring, combined with digital transformation. This technology can be applied in various areas of business processes, and by organizations from any sector of activity. This work, through a literature review, aims to clarify the RPA's concept, the benefits found in this adoption, the main characteristics that the processes must have to be eligible, and the main barriers encountered for successful RPA adoption. In short, this preliminary literature review aims to contribute to the organization's clarification of RPA adoption.
- Robotic Process Automation (RPA) adoption: a systematic literature reviewPublication . Costa, Diogo; São Mamede, Henrique; Silva, Miguel Mira daRobotic Process Automation (RPA) is a recent technology that has recently become increasingly adopted by companies as a solution for employees to focus on higher complexity and more valuable tasks while delegating routine, monotonous and rule-based tasks to their digital colleagues. The increased interest, joint with the increased number of articles regarding approaches and test cases, has triggered the necessity for a summary that could extract the more generalizable ideas and concepts about these software robots. In this paper, a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) approach was used to find and synthesize information through the obtained articles on this subject. This research identified the most general implementation features of successful RPA adoption cases, observed benefits, challenges commonly faced by organizations, characteristics that make processes more suitable for RPA, and research gaps in the current literature. The findings present in this paper have two purposes. The first is to provide a way for companies and organizations to become more familiar with good practices regarding robotic process automation adoption. The other is to foster further research on the subject by complementing the current knowledge and proposing new paths for research.
