Abstract
Augmented Reality (AR) is a field of knowledge that emerged in the middle of the last century, and its use has been spreading because of its usefulness, but also because of mobile platforms, accessible to most users. AR characteristics are valued in several fields of human activity, and also in the field of Education and Training, being AR pointed out as useful to the learning process. In this paper we search and analyse surveys and reviews of AR. We present a AR’s definition, and we create a classification scheme of two dimensions for AR: the dimension of the fields of application of AR, and the dimension of the technologies of AR. © 2021, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

Technology and Innovation in Learning, Teaching and Education - Second International Conference, TECH-EDU 2020, Vila Real, Portugal, December 2-4, 2020, Proceedings, 3

Abstract
In the competitive automotive market, where extremely high-quality standards must be ensured independently of the growing product and manufacturing complexity brought by customization, reliable and precise detection of any non-conformities before the vehicle leaves the assembly line is paramount. In this paper we propose a wearable solution to aid quality control workers in the detection, visualization and relay of any non-conformities, while also reducing known performance issues such as skill gaps and fatigue, and improving training methods. We also explore how the reliability, precision and validity tests of the visualization module of our framework were performed, guaranteeing a 0% chance occurrence of undesired non-conformities in the following usability tests and training simulator. © 2021, Springer Nature Switzerland AG.

A Novel Tool for Immersive Authoring of Experiential Learning in Virtual Reality

Authors
Cassola, F; Pinto, M; Mendes, D; Morgado, L; Coelho, A; Paredes, H;

Publication
2021 IEEE CONFERENCE ON VIRTUAL REALITY AND 3D USER INTERFACES ABSTRACTS AND WORKSHOPS (VRW 2021)

Abstract
Training in VR can reduce risks and costs while allowing frequent and diversified experiential learning activities. We present a novel VR immersive authoring tool for experiential learning courses with industrial machinery. A trainer can create a course from scratch, defining all its components (structure, models, tools, and settings). The actions which trainees should perform can be specified by demonstration. After completing the course, trainees' actions will be matched against the trainer's.

Scientometric Research Assessment of IEEE CSCWD Conference Proceedings: An Exploratory Analysis from 2001 to 2019

PROCEEDINGS OF THE 2021 IEEE 24TH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON COMPUTER SUPPORTED COOPERATIVE WORK IN DESIGN (CSCWD)

Abstract
It has been a quarter of a century since the publication of the first edition of the IEEE International Conference on Computer Supported Cooperative Work in Design (CSCWD) held in 1996 in Beijing, China. Despite some attempts to empirically examine the evolution and identity of the field of CSCW and its related communities and disciplines, the scarcity of scientometric studies on the IEEE CSCWD research productivity is noteworthy. To fill this gap, this study reports on an exploratory quantitative analysis of the literature published in the IEEE CSCWD conference proceedings with the purpose of visualizing and understanding its structure and evolution for the 2001-2019 period. The findings offer valuable insights into the paper and author distribution, country and citation-level productivity indicators, degree of collaboration, and collaboration index. Through this analysis we also expect to get an initial overview of the IEEE CSCWD conference concerning the main topics being presented, most cited papers, and variances in the number of keywords, full-text views, and references.

Abstract
The fields of artificial intelligence, knowledge inference, data science, etc. have been deeply studied over time and many theoretical approaches have been developed, including its application to health and diseases inference. The creation of prototype and consumer systems has been restrained by the technology limitations on data acquisition and processing, which has been greatly overcome with the new sensors and mobile devices technologies. So, in this work we go through a literature review of the current state of the art on record to the usage of mobile technologies for diseases inference. The review methodology is based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) framework. The criteria were based on journal articles, prior to 2008, and using the defined keywords. A total of 14 selected articles were analyzed. A general conclusion was attained regarding the current state of maturity of the field, leading to fully functional consumer and professional market products.
