O progresso e a pesquisa para tornar os edifícios mais eficientes e, ao mesmo tempo, mais confortáveis, vêm sendo o foco do novo conceito de arquitetura. Um exemplo de como essa evolução está sendo concretizada é o Solar Dechatlon, uma competição (criada em 2002) entre universidades do mundo todo que projetam e constroem casas autossuficientes energeticamente, pois operam utilizando apenas energia solar. A competição visa a construção de casas extremamente eficientes, avaliadas em diferentes quesitos, dentre os quais está a eficiência energética. Em setembro de 2012, foi sediada em Madri e na Espanha, contando pela primeira vez com uma equipe brasileira, representada pela Ekó House. O projeto da Ekó House foi realizado considerando as condições climáticas de Madri, no mês de setembro, para conseguir o melhor desempenho possível da casa durante a competição. A casa, no panorama brasileiro, não apresenta a mesma eficiência que na cidade da competição, com um balanço energético final que só as cidades de Brasília, Montes Claros e Goiânia têm um resultado parecido com a cidade de Madri. Esta pesquisa de Mestrado, portanto, tem o objetivo de avaliar a casa nas diferentes zonas bioclimáticas brasileiras por meio de três metodologias distintas (balanço energético, RTQ-R prescritivo e RTQ-R simulação) e propor, para cada região, um modelo adaptado às condições das diferentes cidades brasileiras analisadas. O objetivo da pesquisa é reutilizar o projeto Ekó House no Brasil da maneira mais eficiente para as condições climáticas do país, e, ao mesmo tempo, criar uma referência projetual para futuras participações na competição Solar Decathlon, tendo como foco, além da competição, a aplicação da casa no território brasileiro. A revisão bibliográfica é centrada em um melhor conhecimento da competição Solar Decathlon e da casa brasileira, abordando também os temas de arquitetura bioclimática e da eficiência energética nas edificações, tendo como foco o uso de tecnologias de energia solar. Por fim, uma análise das normas brasileiras relacionadas à eficiência energética nas edificações concluirá a revisão bibliográfica. A metodologia, por sua vez, é baseada na análise quantitativa da casa na cidade da competição e nas cidades brasileiras escolhidas. A avaliação da eficiência energética da casa será feita por meio de três métodos de análise diferentes: balanço energético, método prescritivo do RTQ-R e método de simulação do RTQ-R. Por último, a casa será alterada nas diferentes regiões, de acordo com as entrevistas feitas com os membros da equipe, com as normas brasileiras e de análise climática das cidades ! onde a casa será avaliada. Dessa forma, será obtido para cada cidade um modelo de casa Ekó House mais eficiente. Os resultados finais demonstram que a casa obteve um melhor desempenho energético por meio das alterações de projeto propostas em todas as cidades brasileiras. As cidades com condições climáticas mais quentes apresentaram um maior benefício das alterações de projeto aportadas, reduzindo o consumo em até 20% comparado com o projeto original da casa

A sustentabilidade é um tema que está bastante em evidência devido aos perceptíveis sinais do impacto ambiental causado pela ação humana. Nesse contexto, dar atenção à sustentabilidade do ambiente construído toma um papel de grande importância, pois as construções são responsáveis por parcelas consideráveis do consumo energético e de recursos e da geração de resíduos. Nesse contexto foi criado o Solar Decathlon (SD), competição internacional de residências que utilizam somente energia solar. A competição, que surgiu nos Estados Unidos e hoje também acontece na Europa e na China, reúne equipes de universidades de diversas partes do mundo que projetam, constroem, transportam e expõem casas solares autônomas e sustentáveis. O desenvolvimento de tecnologias e sistemas sustentáveis é importante, mas quem decide implementá-los é o usuário, que também impacta na sustentabilidade final com a forma que as utiliza. Assim, para que um real impacto seja alcançado, as escolhas e hábitos dos usuários devem ser sustentáveis. Partindo disso, essa pesquisa participante se propôs analisar o potencial de impacto do SD nas decisões dos indivíduos, utilizando como estudo de caso o Solar Decathlon Europe 2012 (SDE 2012). Para isso, utilizou-se do estudo sobre modelos de decisão tendo como base a síntese feita por Wilson e Dowlatabadi (2007), analisando quais dos fatores que fazem parte do processo de decisão são relevantes para o SDE 2012 de maneira que estimulem escolhas sustentáveis. A pesquisa foi realizada durante a participação como membro da equipe brasileira no SDE 2012, compilando informações sobre a competição desde o período de preparação até a competição e exposição da Ekó House. A pesquisa observou que o Solar Decathlon tem um grande potencial para influenciar as escolhas dos indivíduos por abordar fatores do processo de tomada de decisão como alterar as opções disponíveis aos indivíduos, diminuir a aversão ao risco e apresentar opções compatíveis com a realidade de diferentes indivíduos. Entre os aspectos do SDE que percebeu-se serem positivos nesse processo estão a qualidade dos projetos, a possibilidade de experimentar as casas e tecnologias, e a divulgação das informações sobre o assunto

Inserted in theme "Sustainable Architecture", followed by considerations for the preparation of the "Architectural Design" for "Sustainability", this research begins the study of the concept for Sustainable Development related to "Sustainable Design", anchored in ecological, economic, social, spatial, cultural, technological and political dimensions. This research deals with the criteria that are capable of contributing to the viability of "Architectural Projects of Sustainable Development" to homes single-family houses in the city of São Paulo-SP. These criteria are observed for the viability and applicability of techniques and sustainable technologies that contribute to new methodologies able to resolve the environmental issues in the civil construction sector. To achieve these objectives of environmental quality beside the architecture, it will be indispensable to the attainment of sustainable construction compatible with the energy savings and the use of renewable materials, observing the cultural framework and socioeconomic status. The breadth and complexity of the issue reflects the difficulty and the challenge to establish parameters for analysis appropriate to the various elements inter-related residential construction for selfsufficient in energy. There are solar-houses that reduce the generation of waste, thus contributing to sustainable development, mitigating global warming, especially the reduction of emissions of greenhouse gases. This research is a case study of a project feasible and their technologies, which contribute to overcome the environmental problems of today. Within this universe of propositions, actions and responsibilities, the discussion presented from the perspective of the architect, the Brazilian prototype Ekó House, developed in partnership of major universities to the tender Solar Decathlon Europe, competition that took place in Madrid, Spain, in the month of September 2012.
Inserido ao tema “Arquitetura Sustentável”, seguido por considerações para a elaboração do “Projeto Arquitetônico” a favor da “Sustentabilidade”, esta pesquisa inicia o estudo do conceito de Desenvolvimento Sustentável relacionado ao “Projeto Sustentável”, ancorado nas dimensões ecológicas, econômicas, sociais, espaciais, culturais, tecnológicas e políticas. Esta pesquisa aborda os critérios capazes de contribuir para a viabilidade de “Projetos Arquitetônicos de Desenvolvimento Sustentável” às residências unifamiliares na cidade de São Paulo-SP. Estes critérios são observados para a viabilidade e a aplicabilidade de técnicas e tecnologias sustentáveis que contribuem a novas metodologias capazes de dirimir as questões ambientais no setor da construção civil. Para alcançarmos estes objetivos de qualidade ambiental ao lado da arquitetura, será indispensável à realização de construções sustentáveis compatíveis com a economia de energia e o uso de materiais renováveis, observando o quadro cultural e socioeconômico. A abrangência e a complexidade do tema refletem na dificuldade e no desafio em estabelecer parâmetros de análise apropriados aos diversos elementos inter-relacionados na construção de residências autossuficientes em energia. São casas-solares que minimizam o impacto ambiental, contribuindo ao desenvolvimento sustentável, mitigando o aquecimento global, especialmente pela redução de emissões dos gases causadores do efeito estufa. Esta pesquisa faz o estudo de caso de um projeto viável e suas tecnologias que contribuem para a superação dos problemas ambientais atuais. Dentro desse universo de proposições, ações e responsabilidades, a discussão apresentada sob a ótica do arquiteto, o protótipo brasileiro Ekó House, que desenvolvido em parceria entre universidades para o concurso Solar Decathlon Europa, competição que aconteceu em Madri, na Espanha, no mês de setembro de 2012.

Cada vez menos o mercado de uma empresa se confina às fronteiras do país onde se implantou. Numa competição cada vez mais feroz, só conseguirá sobreviver quem melhor adaptar a sua empresa a esta nova realidade. A internacionalização é uma das respostas empresariais à globalização. O facto de a internacionalização ser um processo complexo, que um pequeno erro pode conduzir a uma falha total o que vem exigir à empresa que se diferencie perante o seu mercado alvo . Deste modo, quando uma empresa se decide internacionalizar deve decidir qual o mercado a expandir e qual o modo mais apropriado para organizar as suas actividades no estrangeiro. Assim, o estudo da internacionalização e das estratégias que cada empresa adopta para se expandir no mercado internacional, torna-se cada vez mais debatido nos dias de hoje O objectivo desta dissertação é pois elaborar um estudo da estratégia de internacionalização de um grupo empresarial francês do sector do retalho em três perspectivas.

Full textEsta investigação centra-se na forma como o (Re)Commerce é usado e comunicado pelas empresas. O contexto macroeconómico actual tem vindo a revelar alterações nos comportamentos e atitudes perante o consumo, tais como a retracção e a racionalização da tomada de decisão de compra. A presente investigação visa perceber: de que forma o (Re)Commerce constitui uma solução estratégica de marketing e de comunicação, sobretudo em tempos de crise? O (Re)Commerce consiste na revenda e/ou troca de produtos com a finalidade de obtenção de lucros e descontos, contribuição para causas solidárias e preservação dos recursos naturais por preocupação ética. Pretende-se estudar quatro marcas, pioneiras na introdução desta tendência nas suas campanhas de marketing e comunicação em Portugal, designadamente a Decathlon, a Ikea, a FNAC e a Calzedonia, no sentido de explorar diferentes estratégias de marketing e comunicação e interpretar os seus efeitos nos consumidores. Para o efeito, recorre-se à análise exploratória dos materiais de comunicação das campanhas desenvolvidas e a questionários e entrevistas aos seus consumidores. Os resultados permitiram apurar um conjunto variado de motivações dos consumidores em torno do fenómeno do (Re)Commerce e mostram que houve marcas que atraíram mais a sua atenção do que outras.
This investigation focuses on how (Re)Commerce is used and communicated by companies. The present macroeconomic context has been revealing some changes on consumption behaviours and attitudes, such as refraining and rationalization of consumption decision making. The present investigation will focus on how (Re)Commerce is a marketing and communication strategic solution, mostly in recession times. (Re)Commerce consists of trading and selling used goods for obtaining profits and discounts, contributing for social causes and preserving natural resources for ethical reasons. This study will analyse four brands that were pioneers in introducing this trend in their marketing and communication campaigns in Portugal, more precisely Decathlon, Ikea, FNAC, and Calzedonia, exploring different strategies and interpreting those effects on consumers. Exploratory analyses to the communication materials of these campaigns, as well as questionnaires and in depth interviews to consumers were used. Results allow us to notice a set of various motivations for (Re)Commerce and show that some brands had attracted more attention than others.

Currently in Brazil, it can be see that the housing availability is not keeping up with population growth, and at that point, João Pessoa (Paraíba state, Brazil) is no different. As a solution to reduce the cost for housing and increase the number of buildings, their quality was sacrifice, by reducing the interior space, causing a distortion of the concept of minimal home, which gave users a major dissatisfaction factors: the lack of space, especially when it comes to social housing. In the search for solutions to this problem, spatial flexibility and adaptability comes as a way to provide the user a better quality of domestic space, more dynamic, so that housing can evolve and adapt to a diverse number of situations. Several development projects encouraging initiatives following this line of thought emerged around the world, among them the Solar Decathlon Europe, an international university competition that challenges collegiate teams to design, build and operate efficient prototype homes, with minimum dimensions and present strategies that overcome the space limitations. Therefore, this research aims the analysis of the application of flexibility and adaptability in architecture and highlight some guidelines of these aspects that can improve the interior’s quality of social housing, from Solar Decathlon Europe’s examples. For that presented a practical example of application in a housing typology of social interest in Joao Pessoa: the Gervásio Maia housing complex, built through a partnership between the Municipality of João Pessoa and the Federal Government, recognized in 2008 as a of the top ten housing projects in Brazil, but indicated as a bad example of architectural design reference for housing units in 2009. In this applied research, the methodological process adopted sought to conduct a thematic analysis of the collected material, in order to establish a relation between the collected data and what was intend to learn from the analysis. As expected result, it is believe to be leave a collaboration in the search for improvement of existing architectural problems in Social Interest Housing in Paraíba, using projective strategies more flexible and adaptable in particular to buildings already built.
Atualmente no Brasil, pode-se observar que a disponibilidade habitacional não vem acompanhando seu crescimento populacional, e nesse ponto João Pessoa (estado de Paraíba, Brasil) não é diferente. Como solução à redução de custo habitacionais para o aumento da quantidade de construções, sacrificou-se a qualidade das mesmas, diminuindo o dimensionamento de ambientes internos, causando uma deturpação do conceito de casa mínima, o que deu origem a um dos principais fatores de insatisfação dos usuários: a falta de espaço, principalmente quando se trata de Habitações de Interesse Social. Na busca de soluções para esse problema, a flexibilidade espacial e a adaptabilidade surgem como uma forma de fornecer ao usuário uma melhor qualidade de espaço doméstico, com maior dinamismo, de forma que a habitação possa evoluir e adaptar-se a um número diversificado de situações. Várias iniciativas de incentivo ao desenvolvimento de projetos seguindo essa linha de pensamento surgiram ao redor do mundo, dentre elas o Solar Decathlon Europe, uma competição universitária internacional que desafia equipes colegiais a projetar, construir e operar protótipos de casas eficientes, com dimensões mínimas e que apresentem estratégias que superem a limitação de espaço. Portanto, esta pesquisa surge com o objetivo de analisar a questão da aplicação da Flexibilidade e da Adaptabilidade na Arquitetura e, assim, apontar diretrizes de uso desses aspectos na melhoria da qualidade de interiores em habitações de interesse social, a partir dos processos projetuais do Solar Decathlon Europe. Para tanto apresentou-se um exemplo prático de aplicação em uma tipologia habitacional de interesse social de João Pessoa: o Conjunto Habitacional Gervásio Maia, construído por meio de uma parceria entre a Prefeitura Municipal de João Pessoa e o Governo Federal, reconhecido em 2008 como um dos dez melhores projetos habitacionais do Brasil, mas indicado como referência de mau exemplo de projeto arquitetônico para unidades habitacionais em 2009. Por tratar-se de uma pesquisa aplicada, o processo metodológico adotado procurou realizar uma análise temática do material coletado, a fim de se estabelecerem relações entre os dados e aquilo que se pretendia obter com a análise realizada, dividindo-se em 07 etapas principais: sistematização da pesquisa, seleção de dados, análise dos problemas da tipologia em estudo, definição de diretrizes, cadastro de projetos, análise de dados e apreciação acerca dos resultados. Como resultado esperado, acredita-se que seja deixada uma colaboração na busca por melhoria dos problemas arquitetônicos existentes em Habitações de Interesse Social na Paraíba, por meio do uso de estratégias projetuais mais flexíveis e adaptáveis, em especial, aos edifícios já construídos.

Full textThe last 25 years have been ground-breaking in architectural design on low energy consumption in cold climate, mainly in north-western cultures. For an architect today, the method to design a passive house in cold weather and the choice of the Architectural Actions (AA), are clearly established. When the question comes to how to build a passive house in warmer, hot, and very hot climates, the strategies arepoor and often results of a combination of western strategies with a local relook. From several visits in MiddleEast countries, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Oman, Palestine, Qatar, we concluded that the strategy for low consumption houses is not established yet and poorly grasped. The lack of training on low energy consumption in hot climate and the low price of energy, force designers and owners to rely on over usage of air-conditioning systems as measures to catch up on poor bioclimatic design. This method proposes a new approach on bioclimatic designfor hot climates from an architect point of view. It is based on a Cooling Degrees Days (CDD) and Heating Degrees Days (HDD) approach, a state of art of contemporary architecture and professional experience. Localclimates are classified according to the energy-hunger of six situations of the exterior temperature during night/day : cold/cold, cold/cool, cool/warm, cold/hot, cool/hot, and hot/hot as CDD and HDD of the twelve month ofthe year. A group of days on one of those situations will be called “climatic season”. In parallel we will create two main “climatic situations”: people keep the house closed to the exterior or opened to the exterior. We will associate passive strategies to these two differents ways to live in the house: “cold” and “hot” to a closed houseand “cool” and “warm” to a house opened up to the exterior. This method allows classifying any climate in theworld under these six climatic seasons. Our climate classification can now be associated to different strategies that we will call “architectural actions” as house is closed or opened. We could already start to design a house from here, but to better understand the influence of each action we have created an Energy+ model to analyze individually the effect of a single AA. The performance of each action is evaluated under the situations of six representative journeys as well as a year round on a very hot city: Dubai. The result of the effect good or badof action during each different season situation allows us to create the best combination of AA that are best fora year round climate resulting of the combination of several climatic seasons. This low-tech method will help usto find the common features of the houses of different hot climates of a big region and find the best typology. We have carried in parallel a cost study of the base house and the financial incidence of each single action to evaluate also the payback period by action

Desta forma, as ruturas de stock representam um entrave e serio obstáculo à rentabilidade, tanto para o retalhista como para o fornecedor. Assim, por se tornar capaz de provocar perdas diretas ou indiretas, torna-se de grande importância a sua melhor gestão. A sua importância deve-se ao facto de que poderá ter impactos no serviço ao cliente, o que fará com que o nível de satisfação do cliente diminua, traduzindo-se assim, não só na possibilidade de originar problemas na cadeia de abastecimento, como também na lealdade do cliente. O tema central da tese foca-se na possibilidade de gerar um melhor entendimento nas causas e estratégias a implementar no âmbito das ruturas de stock. O sucesso do estudo, deve-se a uma extensa revisão da literatura, surgindo três questões fulcrais que estão na base do estudo. As áreas principais centram-se nas causas, prevenção e estratégias, sendo que a "Decathlon" será o caso alvo de estudo. A teoria recolhida vai em concordância com a literatura, todavia há uma grande lacuna nesta matéria. Ainda, a tese pretende explorar os impactos nos consumidores e na empresa.

Full textIn the current context, highly volatile and competitive, companies recognize the increasing importance of employee training, which can provide their sustainable competitive advantages. Although many managers share this vision and mobilize actions in order to develop the employees' skills, sometimes there is a gap between what managers say about the training in their companies and the image that their employees have about it (Meignant, 2003). The main goal of this study is to understand Decathlon Portugal employees’ perception of training management in the company. The specific objectives are: (1) to characterize the company’s training management; and to know the employees’ perception about: (2) company's commitment to training; (3) the importance and benefits they recognize in the training of the company; (4) their contribution to training needs analysis; (5) the equity in access to training and factors that influence it; (6) the factors that boost learning and skills development; (7) the quality of company's training actions. For this purpose, an online questionnaire was sent to all employees. 154 responses were obtained, which represents 12% of the population. The most relevant results and conclusions of this study show us that Decathlon Portugal employees’ tend to have a positive perception of training management in the company. Knowing the six dimensions analyzed, the analysis of training needs and the equity in the access to training represents the two dimensions with lower agreement average values.

Generally, high-altitude training is used for training modification before the competition. Previous evidence has revealed that glucose uptake ability is closely associated with muscle glycogen storage content; moreover, it has been proved that hypoxia can enhance glucose diffusion into muscle. Therefore, the purpose of present study is to investigate the effect of high-altitude training on whole-body glucose uptake and endurance exercise performance. Ten track-decathletes were included into this study. After one-week high-altitude training, all subjects came back to sea level for another three weeks training. During all training process, the training loading and intensity were the same. OGTT was performed twice before the altitude training and after one week sea level training. Furthermore, 12 mins running test was performed in pre-training and the ending of training weekly. We found that the AUC value of OGTT lowered down significantly (from 2438±320.24 to 1760±152.16) after one week high-altitude training. The performance of 12 mins-running test also improved from 2615±356.63 m to 2864±356.63 m vii in significant; in addition, keeping 90-95% training intensity in sea level maintained the altitude training effect for three weeks at least. In conclusion, one week high altitude training can improve whole-body glucose uptake and endurance exercise performance; moreover, the altitude training effect can be maintained by three weeks sea-level training.

Full textDiversos estudos no âmbito da gestão e do marketing fazem análises sobre as relações entre empresas e clientes finais, os chamados mercados B2C, porém, nos últimos anos as relações B2B têm ganho mais importância tanto pelo volume de negócio que estas representam, como pelo fato de estes mercados sustentarem todo o mercado. O CRM surge como uma ferramenta de gestão, contribuindo para maximizar as relações de troca entre as empresas e destas com o seu público interessado, visando alcançar o sucesso. Para alcançar este objetivo, tem de se conhecer bem os clientes e desenvolver com estes uma relação próxima e duradoura por via da implementação dos princípios do marketing relacional. A proposta de trabalho de investigação vai-se basear num estudo exploratório sobre as diferenças entre os clientes B2C e B2B e a relação entre CRM e o Marketing Relacional em clientes B2B. O objetivo é investigar o que influencia a compra de artigos, no mercado B2C e B2B, em unidade de retalho desportivo, neste caso Decathlon. Esta escolha da Decathlon ocorreu por ser uma das maiores empresas no mercado português de retalho de artigos desportivos. Com o intuito de atingir o objetivo proposto foi realizada, metodologicamente, uma entrevista a um diretor de loja e 711 questionários aos clientes (530 clientes B2C e 181 clientes B2B). Após a análise dos resultados obtidos concluiu-se que existem diversos fatores que influenciam a compra de artigos no mercado B2C e B2B. No mercado B2C, dificuldade em encontrar os produtos, preços altos, falta de explicação sobre o produto e o produto não se adequa à utilização/gosto do cliente. No mercado B2B, a rutura de stock, necessidade em ter um vendedor disponível e que aconselhe de forma adequada, falta de variedade de produtos ou personalizados e não existir descontos. Concluiu-se ainda que, neste tipo de mercado B2B, é necessário, para reverter estes resultados, implementar o sistema de CRM com base o Marketing Relacional, conseguindo o sucesso.
Several management and marketing studies analyse relations between companies and end customers, the so-called B2C markets, however in recent years B2B relationships have gained more importance both in terms of the volume of business they represent as well as the market they sustain. CRM emerges as a management tool, contributing to maximize the exchange relationships between companies and these with their interested public, aiming to achieve success. To achieve this goal, you have to know your customers well and develop a close and lasting relationship with them by implementing the principles of relational marketing. The research work proposal will be based on an exploratory study on the differences between B2C and B2B clients and the relationship between CRM and Relational Marketing in B2B clients. The objective is to investigate what influences the purchases of articles, in the B2C and B2B market, in sports retail unit, in this case Decathlon. This choice of Decathlon occurred because it is one of the largest companies in the Portuguese retail of sports goods. In order to reach the proposed goal, an interview was conducted with a store manager and 711 customer questionnaires (530 B2C clients and 181 B2B clients). After analysing the results, it was concluded that there are several factors that influence the purchase of articles in the B2C and B2B markets. In the B2C market, difficulty in finding the products, high prices, lack of explanation about the product and the product doesn’t fit the use / taste of the customer. In the B2B market, such as stock breach, need to have an available and adequately advised seller, lack of variety or personalized products and no discounts. It was also concluded that, in this type of B2B market, it is necessary, to reverse these results, to implement the CRM system based on Relational Marketing, thus achieving success.

Full textAs marcas da distribuição (MD) têm-se tornado cada vez mais sofisticadas, representando uma ameaça para as grandes marcas da produção (MP). Esta dissertação tem como objetivo evidenciar a importância das estratégias de branding e como estas são capazes de impactar a perceção dos consumidores e a quota das MD na oferta de um retalhista. Existem vários estudos relativamente a este tema no retalho alimentar. No entanto, o seu estudo no mercado de artigos desportivos é escasso, apesar de ter características peculiares onde o branding tem uma grande relevância. Para ilustrar este tema, é desenvolvido o caso de estudo da Decathlon. Um retalhista que passou da adoção de uma estratégia de marca única para um portfólio de marcas especializadas, intituladas “marcas paixão”. O caso destaca os desafios enfrentados por esta empresa aquando o uso da estratégia Umbrella. O rebranding foi essencial para construir uma panóplia de marcas inovadoras e para aumentar a quota de MD do grupo. A Decathlon é um exemplo notável de uma empresa de sucesso que não usa a tradicional segmentação em três-níveis, mas que divide o portfólio em categorias especializadas. Finalmente, o caso revela o novo desafio enfrentado pela empresa e como provavelmente a sua estratégia de branding terá ido longe demais. Após a análise do caso, os estudantes devem ser capazes de reconhecer a importância das decisões de branding e o seu impacto. Devem também entender que a arquitetura das MD é cada vez mais complexa e que tem que ser gerida tal como numa MP.
