The main topics covered are: Information and Knowledge Management; Organizational Models and Information Systems; Software and Systems Modeling; Software Systems, Architectures, Applications and Tools; Multimedia Systems and Applications; Computer Networks, Mobility and Pervasive Systems; Intelligent and Decision Support Systems; Big Data Analytics and Applications; Human–Computer Interaction; Ethics, Computers & Security; Health Informatics; Information Technologies in Education; and Information Technologies in Radiocommunications.
This book is the result of several years of research on children’s and youth telenovelas, which began during my doctoral studies and with previously disseminated productions in the form of conference papers, scientific articles, and book chapters, but always in the Portuguese language. More than a compilation of these materials, the purpose of this book is to rescue the presented concepts, while updating them, and reconsidering the analyses conducted by intersecting them. It also aims to contribute to the internationalization of the research by presenting it in a new language (English), going beyond the limits of the Portuguese-speaking world.

A narrativa é observada como processo, mas também como produto da comunicação organizacional. O caráter processual da narrativa, observado e apresentado na publicação, diz respeito ao trabalho de “narrativização” operado pelas organizações no intuito de comunicar sua trajetória aos diferentes públicos. Isto é, a história organizacional é submetida a um processo comunicacional graças ao qual ela se torna “narrável”. Por outro lado, abordar a narrativa como produto, significa focalizar nos relatos estratégicos cons...
