Abstract
Seventy millennial students answered a survey on attitudes towards leadership and their desired approach to higher education. What is their perspective on knowledge management and dissemination in academia? Some romanticizing may be beneficial, but the great majority of students want to be enlightened and well-prepared for that which they will encounter in business markets. Three interviews with seasoned executives were also performed, to establish a contrast and see other perspectives. We conclude that to become a great corporate leader may in fact be dependent on your DNA and personality make-up, but this is not what is thought to be true, by the majority of the respondents in the survey. Motivation took the most votes as being fundamental for success, a positive sign and indicative of a hard working millennial generation, contrary to previous research findings. IT is also a precious partner in class, in particular Padlet.com, Moodle, the online News Forum, as well as the challenge to create original videos about course content.

Abstract
The financial crisis and the growth of Information Technology have led companies to look for innovative ways to achieve knowledge in order to meet the demands of the market. This article presents a synthesis definition of characteristics and behaviors of the companies phase to risks, to design a tool of simulation of competitiveness that is an advantage for the managers. This research was based on the analysis of business administration books and Artificial Intelligence, by authors such as: P. Drucker or M. Mitchell and S. Forrest. It resulted in the design of a tool to simulate the competitiveness of companies, based on the definition of a genome and an artificial ecosystem. As future work, it will be interesting to develop the designed tool and analyze its operation based on real data shared by business managers.

Abstract
The big amount of data generated nowadays are being used by Big Data tools to generate knowledge and to facilitate the decision-making. However, this situation creates a new challenge: how to visualize all these data without losing mid/long term crucial information. The purpose of this article is to analyze the state of the art on massive data visualization, main problems and challenges of information representation current techniques as well as the evolution of the tools and the future of them, in other words, new functionalities to offer.

Abstract
This article is a case study, based on Participant Observation, which focuses on a digital platform which manages assets. This platform is for sale in different countries, including Portugal and Mozambique. As national cultures and institutions differ from country to country and as this is all the more the case when different continents are at stake, we herein discuss the adaptation of products and services to the cultures and institutions of each environment, for the optimization of sales and product positioning. The data of the case study comes mainly from the experience of one of the authors, who lived in Mozambique for close to two years, linked to the selling there of the digital platform. A review of the existing literature was also performed. The strategic notion of positioning is central to the success of organizations and should differ from context to context, where necessary. Namely, different economic and education conditions lead to distinct behaviours, which have a repercussion on the posture to be adopted for the selling of products.

Abstract
Accessibility is a very under addressed topic in software engineering, a constraining factor for its mainstream implementation. In this paper, this problem is described as well as some of its consequences. Some key concepts of digital accessibility are presented, beyond those of Web accessibility. The major contribution of this paper is the presentation of a draft to a proposal for a framework development model. In this framework, accessibility is present throughout the software lifecycle, in an explicit and justified way, based on the four main phases present in most framework development models.
