TY - JOUR A1 - Gea García, Alfonso Diego de T1 - Plataforma de computacíón ubicada para el registro de asistencia en universidades con "Near Field Communication" Y1 - 2014 UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10317/4157 AB - [SPA]Las directrices del Espacio Europeo de Educación Superior (EEES) están promoviendo la modernización de las universidades por toda Europa por medio de la implementación de nuevas tecnologías. Dicha modernización permitirá que los servicios que ofrecen las universidades estén más cerca de la sociedad. Con esta idea en mente, la Universidad Politécnica de Cartagena se encuentra inmersa en la implementación del modelo llamado "Smart University", promoviendo un ambicioso proyecto sobre el estudio de la tecnología Near Field Communication (NFC) y su aplicación en el entorno universitario. Este proyecto fin de carrera, estando integrado dentro del macro-proyecto descrito, ha desarrollado una plataforma hardware/software que pretende constituir las bases para investigaciones posteriores en la UPCT acerca del impacto de la tecnología NFC sobre el entorno universitario. Así como también ha definido un marco metodológico de aplicación a futuros proyectos en la universidad La plataforma resultante de este proyecto, basándose en la tecnología NFC, constituye una plataforma de computación ubicua para el registro de asistencia en universidades. Los objetivos principales de la plataforma son: -Servir como herramienta piloto de pruebas para planificar un posible despliegue a gran escala en las instalaciones universitarias. -Constituir un marco metodológico, así como tecnológico, para su empleo en futuros proyectos de desarrollo que traten con NFC en la universidad.[ENG]themselves to current European directives in educational matters. The European Higher Education Area, as the main objective of the Bologna Process, was meant to create more comparable, compatible and coherent systems of higher education in Europe, providing guidelines for these purposes, which involve the modernization of the universities through the full implementation of new technologies in all their areas. The Technical University of Cartagena has promoted an ambitious project on the study of Near Field Communication technology and its application at the university environment. This thesis, being a part of this project, develops a hardware/software platform intended to constitute a basis for further scientific research at the Technical University of Cartagena dealing with the impact on the university society. The platform resulting from this thesis, using as basis Near Field Communication, constitutes a ubiquitous computing platform for attendance registering at universities. The main objectives of this platform are: to serve as a pilot testing tool intended for the planning of a possible large-scale deployment at university facilities, and to constitute a methodological and technological base framework for future development processes dealing with Near Field Communication at the university. From the development process viewpoint, the global functionality achieved by the platform can be stated as follows: allowing the effective monitoring of student attendance at lectures or laboratory practices just by bringing a mobile device close to a Near Field Communication reader placed at the main entrance of the dependencies. During the testing and commissioning phase, several parameters will be studied, such as response time, technology performance, gains in terms of time and money saving, and impact on the university members. Upcoming projects at the university will be able to use the set of technologies selected to address the development process in this thesis, such as: the application of Extreme Programming development methodology, the application of a usability model, the Java programming resources (Application Programming Interfaces, libraries, development environment, device emulators), the commercial hardware devices used (mobile phone and reader), and the server software tools to develop external systems at the university (database and directory server).
