Abstract
In the vehicle routing problem with heterogeneous fleet and variable costs (HFVRP), the group of routes to be developed to satisfy the demand of the customer must be determined, considering the minimization of the total costs of the travelled distance. Heuristic algorithms based on local searches use simple movements (neighborhoods) to generate feasible solutions to problems related to route design. In this article, we conduct a comparative analysis of granular neighborhoods in a Tabu Search for the HFVRP, in terms of the quality of the obtained solution. The computational experiments, performed on instances of benchmarking for the HFVRP, showed the efficiency and effectiveness of implementing some neighborhoods in metaheuristic algorithms of path, such as the Tabu Search.

Abstract
This paper aims at presenting the STRONGMAR Summer School 2016 that took place at the Base Naval de Lisboa, of the Portuguese Navy. The STRONGMAR project ideal motivates the development of maritime and marine science research and technology through the knowledge transfer between INESC TEC and promising, and prestigious, leading research European institutions. This process takes place through theoretical lectures and training, and via experimental application of the concepts discussed in order to further develop technology related to the sea environment. The practical application of the STRONGMAR project ideal takes place during events such as summer schools, winter schools, thematic workshops and scientific conferences. The STRONGMAR Summer School 2016 approaches the subject of "Introduction to Advanced Marine Technologies", providing a strong component of practical applications in underwater archaeology. It develops the study of unmanned systems applied to underwater archaeology, through the use of unmanned underwater vehicles. As a whole, this paper describes the Summer School experience, providing some results and greater insight on the topic of underwater archaeology.

Abstract
This study aims to contribute to the growing literature on teachers' mobility by exploring perceptions and motivations to join these activities, in particular through the collection of evidence on the impact a first and only exchange experience has had on the participants. The research adopts a qualitative methodology in the form of phenomenological interviews with 6 teachers that engaged on only one mobility initiative. The interviewees shared their personal impressions on mobility, including reasons, facilitators, and outcomes of the experience. Bureaucratic, financial and residual professional impact, are among the most cited inhibitors for repeating the initiative. However, most of the participants expect to be become involved again on mobility assignments someday, especially teachers that identified greater impact from this first experience. The analysis provides interesting clues for international offices, Erasmus coordinators and university top managers, who devote considerable effort to the promotion and support of mobility practices.

Abstract
Software systems with a graphical user interface (GUI) front end are typically designed using user interface (UI) Patterns, which describe generic solutions (with multiple possible implementations) for recurrent GUI design problems. However, existing testing techniques do not take advantage of this fact to test GUIs more efficiently. In this paper, we present a new pattern-based GUI testing (PBGT) approach that formalizes the notion of UI Test Patterns, which are generic test strategies to test UI patterns over their different implementations. The PBGT approach is evaluated via 2 case studies. The first study involves 2 fielded Web application subjects; findings show that PBGT is both practical and useful, as testing teams were able to find real bugs in a reasonable time interval. The second study allows deeper analysis by studying software subjects seeded with artificial faults; the findings show that PBGT is more effective than a manual model-based test case generation approach.
