Abstract
The central theme of the paper is to contribute to the discussion on the relevance of sustainable electric mobility as a beneficial element for tourism activities developed in protected areas. The topic is not recent, but the development of electromobilityhas increased interest and research, with a strong focus on urban areas, but also more and moreon natural areas.The aim is to determine if there is a potential field of electric mobility intervention, with benefit for tourism activities, in protected areas. For this, we called upon theliterature review and comparison with the case of a nature reserve located in Portugal. On the one hand, the investigation procedure focused on the analysis of the virtues and conflicts identified in the literature, along with the contextualization of sustainable mobility in natural areas. On the other hand, we tried to understand how these virtues and conflicts fit the case study, the Serra da Malcata Nature Reserve, in Portugal, as part of the development of an INTERREG project.It can be concluded, although no more substantial project indicators are available, that there is a possibility of overcoming existing conflicts, seeking to maximize the virtues and that it may have an impact not only on tourism activities but on the socioeconomic territory itself.

Abstract
This paper looks over the perpetual fight that low density regions must face in what regards the emergence of economic opportunities, employment, income and production growth. It is known that tourism demand for nature and protected areas is increasing in this more and more urban world, what can open some doors for innovation to take place. The project we’ve been working on is focused on sustainable tourism practices in a protected area (Malcata Mountain Reserve), via electric mobility, which is known for its zero emission, non-polluting and noise free travelling. A broader study is taking place under the Interreg Funding Program, known as Moveletur Project. Our goals are to sponsor a model of sustainable and green tourism for visitors of natural areas, to produce a network of green tourism itineraries linking places of natural and/or cultural value using rechargeable vehicles and to encourage tourism sector entrepreneurs with a new service for their activity. Combined work with other natural areas is essential to increase outcomes. After the conclusion of project (by the end of 2018) there will be better information concerning natural and cultural values that natural areas hold and that can be used for tourists’ pleasure, there will be a more dutiful way of doing tourism in natural areas, expectantly it will address job creation and improved territorial competitiveness, tourism experiences will have more quality and, finally, using technological features, will support smart villages further development.

Abstract
Industry 4.0 is the movement towards a fourth industrial revolution that will consist in the digitization and integration of all value chain. In Europe, this movement is led by the German RAMI 4.0 (Reference Architecture for Industry 4.0) proposal, which is attracting a lot of attention from industry, academia and other practitioners. Under the RAMI 4.0 scope there is an Administration Shell proposal to abstract physical and logical assets in a standardized way. Once abstracted, assets become Industry 4.0 Components and can be fully integrated in the Cyber Physical Production System or value chain. This work focuses on the utilization of software components within the Administration Shell. There is a necessity to represent software components and their relation to industrial asset. Therefore, control and monitoring applications involving software components and other assets can be represented in compliance with the I4.0 Component Model. To address this necessity the Smart Object Self Description information model is proposed and applied to a real case study scenario.
