Abstract
A growing concern with current teaching approaches underscores the need for innovative paradigms and tools in computer programming education, aiming to address disparate user profiles, enhance engagement, and cultivate deeper understanding among learners This article proposes an innovative approach to teaching programming, where students are challenged to write statements for solutions automatically generated. With this approach, rather than simply solving exercises, students are encouraged to develop code analysis and problem formulation skills. For this purpose, a Web application was developed to materialize these ideas, using the OpenAI API to generate exercises and evaluate statements written by the students. The transformation of this application in H5P and its integration in a LMS gamified workflow is explored for wider and more effective adoption.

Abstract
The purpose of this scoping review was to identify and summarize how technology can promote patient participation in the rehabilitation process in hip replacement. We conducted a scoping review following the steps outlined by the Joanna Briggs Institute. The PRISMA Checklist (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses) was utilized to systematically organize the gathered information. A thorough search of articles was performed on PubMed, Scopus, and CINAHL databases for all publications up to December 2022. Twenty articles were included in this study. Various technologies, such as mobile applications, Web sites, and platforms, offer interactive approaches to facilitate total hip replacement rehabilitation. The analyzed studies were based on the rehabilitation of total hip arthroplasty, which in most of them was developed in mobile applications and Web sites. The studies identified reflect trends in the application of digital health technologies to promote patient engagement in the rehabilitation process and provide risk monitoring and patient education.

SOFTWARE AND CYBERINFRASTRUCTURE FOR ASTRONOMY VIII
Abstract
The Mid-infrared ELT Imager and Spectrograph (METIS) instrument is one of three first-generation science instruments for the Extremely Large Telescope (ELT) in Chile. It has entered the Manufacturing, Assembly, Integration and Testing (MAIT) phase and it is currently scheduled to be installed in 2028. Its Single Conjugate Adaptive Optics (SCAO) system will provide the performance of an extreme adaptive optics system which enables high-contrast imaging (HCI) observations in the thermal/mid-infrared wavelength domain. The METIS Adaptive Optics (AO) control system is responsible for the AO wavefront correction and for supporting AO-related assembly, integration, verification and maintenance activities. It realizes the main AO loop by a Real-Time Computer (RTC) that receives images from a wavefront sensor and commands the corrective optics through the Central Control System (CCS) of the ELT. Several auxiliary functions will run outside of the RTC in the AO Observation Coordination System (AO OCS) that are necessary to maintain the quality of the wavefront correction. For instance, the Differential tip-tilt (DTT) control loop centers the star on the Vortex Phase Mask during HCI observations by adjusting the modulator device via the SCAO Function Control System (FCS) based on sciences images received from the Focal Plane Sensor Gateway (FPS GW). Conceptually, the METIS Adaptive Optics Control System (AOCS) is a distributed software system that is controlled by the METIS Instrument Control System (ICS). This paper describes the current status of the METIS AO control system, driving forces behind the design and the important control loops.

Abstract
This paper underscores the critical role of evolving tools for underwater search and rescue. Successful submarine crew rescue hinges on detecting, locating, and obtaining detailed information about the submerged vessel. Robotic systems, particularly ROVs and AUVs, emerge as invaluable tools, offering swift deployment times compared to manned submersibles. This study presents findings from Submarine Escape and Rescue (SMER) field trials conducted during the REPMUS 2023 naval military exercise off the west coast of Portugal, showcasing the effectiveness of these tools in real-world emergency situations. An initial multibeam sonar search from the surface with the Mar Porfundo ship was performed, followed by a close detailed inspection and visual survey with the EVA AUV of a target military submarine (NRP Arp (a) over tildeo) stationed on the sea bottom.
