Abstract
Underwater acoustic localization is a challenging task. Most techniques rely on a network of acoustic sensors and beacons to estimate relative position, therefore localization uncertainty becomes highly dependent on the selected sensor configuration. Although several works in literature exploit optimal sensor placement to improve localization over large regions, the conditions contemplated in these are not applicable for the optimization of the acoustic sensors on constrained 3D shapes, such as the body of small underwater vehicles or structures. Additionally, most commercial systems used for localization with ultra-short baseline (USBL) configurations have compact acoustic sensors that cannot be spatially positioned independently. This work tackles the optimization of acoustic sensor placement in a limited 3D shape, in order to improve the localization accuracy for USBL applications. The implemented multi-objective memetic algorithm combines the Cramer-Rao Lower Bound (CRLB) configuration evaluation with incidence angle considerations for the sensor placement.

Abstract
The process of developing Dockerfiles is perceived by many developers as slow and based on trial-and-error, and it is hardly immediate to see the result of a change introduced into a Dockerfile. In this work we propose a plugin for Visual Studio Code, which we name Dockerlive, and that has the purpose of shortening the length of feedback loops. Namely, the plugin is capable of providing information to developers on a number of Dockerfile elements, as the developer is writing the Dockerfile. We achieve this through dynamic analysis of the resulting container, which the plugin builds and runs in the background. © 2022 IEEE.

Abstract
Application execution requests in cloud architecture and fog paradigm are generally heterogeneous in terms of contexts at the device and application level. The scheduling of requests in these architectures is an optimization problem with multiple constraints. Despite numerous efforts, task scheduling in these architectures and paradigms still presents some enticing challenges that make us question how tasks are routed between different physical devices, fog, and cloud nodes. The fog is defined as an extension of the cloud, which provides processing, storage, and network services near the edge network, and due to the density and heterogeneity of devices, the scheduling is very complex, and, in the literature, we still find few studies. Trying to bring innovative contributions in these areas, in this paper, we propose a solution to the context-aware task-scheduling problem for fog paradigm. In our proposal, different context parameters are normalized through Min-Max normalization, requisition priorities are defined through the application of the Multiple Linear Regression (MLR) technique and scheduling is performed using Multi-Objective Non-Linear Programming Optimization (MONLIP) technique. The results obtained from simulations in the iFogSim toolkit, show that our proposal performs better compared to the non-context-aware proposals.

Abstract
This paper presents a data market aimed at trading energy forecasts data. The system architecture is built using blockchain as a service, allowing access to data streams and establishing a distributed settlement between stakeholders. Energy Forecasts data is presented as the commodity traded in the market, whose settlement is provided through the blockchain on the basis of the extracted value provided by market stakeholders. Our proposal allows market stakeholders to acquire energy forecasts and pay according to the data accuracy, solving the confidentiality problem of freely sharing data. A data quality reward is introduced, steering the compensation sent to market participants. The data market design is presented and an evaluation campaign is performed, showing that the data market produced functionally valid results in comparison with the results achieved with a central simulated approach. Moreover, results show that the data market architecture is able to scale.

Abstract
Visualizations for Streaming Big Data need to handle high volumes of information in real-time, making it challenging to convey significant data changes without confusing users. A simple first approach would be switching from the current visual idiom to another, highlighting a significant change. Unfortunately, there are no guidelines to design effective transitions between two visual idioms in Streaming Big Data. Therefore, we created a tree of animation concepts to serve as a starting point for designing such animated transitions. The concepts represent several ways in which a visual idiom can be transformed into another. We chose three visual idioms to test our idea and arranged several concepts to apply at each possible pairing (six possibilities). For each pairing, we tested the accuracy of people's perceptions. Finally, we conducted a user study with 100 participants, where each participant answered various questions about transitions between two visual idioms shown in several videos. We concluded that to conceive appropriate animated transitions for Streaming Big Data (which also applies just for Data Streaming) that allow users to understand the changes in incoming data, varying how the proposed concepts are applied is not enough, highlighting the need for future research to address this challenge.
