Abstract
The demographic growth that we have witnessed in recent years, which is expected to increase in the years to come, raises emerging challenges worldwide regarding urban mobility, both in transport and pedestrian movement. The sustainable development of cities is also intrinsically linked to urban planning and mobility strategies. The tasks of navigation and orientation in cities are something that we resort to today with great frequency, especially in unknown cities and places. Current navigation solutions refer to the precision aspect as a big challenge, especially between buildings in city centers. In this paper, we focus on the segment of visually impaired people and how they can obtain information about where they are when, for some reason, they have lost their orientation. Of course, the challenges are different and much more challenging in this situation and with this population segment. GPS, a technique widely used for navigation in outdoor environments, does not have the precision we need or the most beneficial type of content because the information that a visually impaired person needs when lost is not the name of the street or the coordinates but a reference point. Therefore, this paper includes the proposal of a conceptual architecture for outdoor positioning of visually impaired people using the Landmark Positioning approach.

Abstract
The urban development model practiced in the past has proved to be unsustainable. Due to this fact, cities such as Rio de Janeiro, with high population density, mainly regarding precarious settlements, need immediate practical actions to become more sustainable. The insufficiency of planning and investments contributed to the city occupying the 8th position of the most vulnerable cities in the world, triggering the primary motivation of the research study. Therefore, the leading research focused on exploring how sustainable habitats could contribute to Rio de Janeiro becoming more sustainable. A document analysis was carried out, and semi-structured interviews were designed, making it possible to identify projects to create sustainable habitats for Rio de Janeiro that can serve as benchmarks and listen to the engineers and architects regarding the importance of the sustainable building. Thus, consonant to structural changes in thinking, producing, consuming, and living, it was also possible to identify the main contributions of sustainable habitats to the city, classifying them within the pillars of sustainability.

Abstract
The current world context emphasizes the need and urgency of the sustainable cities theme. The construction industry is considered an essential role in satisfying the needs of society and contributing to the economy. However, it is heavily criticized for being a significant contributor to environmental degradation. Moreover, the building sector accounts for considerable energy and water consumption, waste formation, and extensive greenhouse gas emissions. Consequently, sustainable urban development becomes increasingly challenging due to the building sector's high potential for reducing its environmental impacts. Therefore, the research methodology used within this article was the literature review and document analysis to present to the construction industry stakeholders the contribution of the Building's Sustainable Assessment Systems towards the Sustainable Development Goals and essential information that arouses interest in applying them. It was concluded that the Building's Sustainable Assessment Systems contribute to creating sustainable cities, contributing to some of the Sustainable Development Goals.

Abstract
The present paper aims to identify the main trends and gaps in the digitalization of manufacturing SMEs. The most significant literature on this emergent theme was gathered through a criterion search, resulting in discovering 4060 related documents. To narrow this considerable number of documents, a bibliometric analysis was performed. A database was exported from Clarivates' Web of Science for clusters analysis in VOSviewer's software. Afterward, it was possible to identify the top authors and documents. Four trends were identified: one Asian, headed by China; another Anglo-Saxon, led by the USA; and two European trends, run by Italy and Germany. Furthermore, were identified two research gaps: (1) The development of pro-environmental technology and (2) digital readiness models for manufacturing SMEs.

Abstract
The competency-based learning approach arose from the Bologna signed declaration. However, a competency definition has never been easy and has been evolving and adapted over time, from indicators and learning goals to learning outcomes, which were formulated in terms of competencies. Meanwhile, the competency concept becomes discussed by pears, in particular, associating knowledge, skills, and human dispositions or attitudes into the competency definition. This information will be an essential update to the previous approaches and certainly contribute to achieving more accurate and reliable competencies information for employers and higher education institutions (HEI). This paper aims to reinforce the relevance of these concepts and suggest how each construct of “knowledge, skills and human dispositions” could be approached to formulate a competency. In addition, due to accelerated digital transformation, an example of a digital competency defined by the DigComp 2.0 framework, with proposed information regarding each of the three constructs, will be presented to consolidate this challenge. As future work, it is intended to analyze the eight different levels, and competency profiles defined by the European Qualification Framework (EQF) and assign a profile to each defined competency. In the end, it is expected altogether to contribute to achieving a competency roadmap definition. © 2023, ICST Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering.

Abstract
Medical devices are rapidly evolving and becoming more interconnected with healthcare networks, overcoming resource constraints, and increasingly focused on patient well-being and needs. This work intends to identify future research themes in the area of cybersecurity in health by surveying the articles being developed and identifying their current limitations and future work. The developed analysis was based on the publications with the highest number of citations, enabling us to find several challenges and restrictions such as integrating devices in systems. Innovations and the emergence of new technologies with inherent security vulnerabilities, will continue to evolve, escalating the attackers interest in exploiting unknown cybersecurity risks within healthcare. It is mandatory to consider cybersecurity risks since the conception of the devices to reduce security flaws, ensure the patients with a better quality of life, and guarantee information security properties. © 2023, ICST Institute for Computer Sciences, Social Informatics and Telecommunications Engineering.
