Abstract
In the context of Industry 4.0, this paper explores the vital role of advanced technologies, including Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS), Big Data, Internet of Things (IoT), digital twins, and Artificial Intelligence (AI), in enhancing data valorization and management within industries. These technologies are integral to addressing the challenges of producing highly customized products in mass, necessitating the complete digitization and integration of information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) for flexible and automated manufacturing processes. The paper emphasizes the importance of interoperability through Service-Oriented Architectures (SOA), Manufacturing-as-a-Service (MaaS), and Resource-as-a-Service (RaaS) to achieve seamless integration across systems, which is critical for the Industry 4.0 vision of a fully interconnected, autonomous industry. Furthermore, it discusses the evolution towards Supply Chain 4.0, highlighting the need for Transportation Management Systems (TMS) enhanced by GPS and real-time data for efficient logistics. A guideline for implementing CPS within Industry 4.0 environments is provided, focusing on a case study of real-time data acquisition from logistics vehicles using CPS devices. The study proposes a CPS architecture and a generic platform for asset tracking to address integration challenges efficiently and facilitate the easy incorporation of new components and applications. Preliminary tests indicate the platform's real-time performance is satisfactory, with negligible delay under test conditions, showcasing its potential for logistics applications and beyond.

Abstract
A sociedade vive uma transformação acelerada, impulsionada pelo avanço tecnológico digital e o advento de hiperinteligências. É fundamental que a Educação discuta o desenvolvimento de práticas pedagógicas neste contexto. A partir dos conceitos de Aprendizagem Inventiva (Kastrup, 2001, 2015) e Ato Conectivo Transorgânico (Di Felice, 2017), o artigo problematiza “como desenvolver práticas pedagógicas na perspectiva do Paradigma da Educação OnLIFE”. O objetivo é desenvolver, na perspectiva da co-criação, práticas pedagógicas simpoiéticas, inventivas e gamificadas no contexto da Educação OnLIFE. O processo de cocriação foi acompanhado pelo Método Cartográfico de Pesquisa-Intervenção. O percurso envolveu as etapas: retomada dos elementos presentes em ações da Rede ConectaKaT; oficinas de Metaverse e Roblox; desenvolvimento da narrativa gamificada; elaboração dos materiais físicos e vivência da ação. Nas análises emergiram pistas sobre: a visão ecossistêmica do mundo, a cultura/história dos lugares, os processos colaborativos e cooperativos e a ampliação da experiência do habitar com Realidade Aumentada. Evidenciou-se a potência do desenvolvimento de práticas pedagógicas que conectam humanos e não humanos num percurso de invenção, a partir da problematização do mundo, no tempo presente. Essas práticas implicam a hibridização de tempos, espaços, tecnologias, presenças e modalidades, contribuindo para a formação em contextos ecologicamente conectados.

Abstract
This paper presents an optically transparent 2-bit unit-cell for reflective intelligent surface applications in Wi-Fi 6E. The unit-cell is based on a metalmesh and can be reconfigured electronically by adjusting the voltage applied to a varactor diode. The performance of the RIS is demonstrated through simulation, which shows that the results are in good agreement with the theoretical predictions.

Abstract
In recent years, student experience (SX) has drawn the attention of researchers and librarians due to its impact on student engagement and, eventually, academic success. This study aims to explore the intellectual structure of literature focusing on the student experience with academic libraries. Through bibliometric and thematic analyses, we analyzed a sample of 160 articles published between 1995 and 2022. The findings underscore the multifaceted nature of SX research regarding academic libraries. Its intellectual structure unveils six predominant themes: (1) international students' experience; (2) servicescape and service design; (3) impact of technologies; (4) information literacy; (5) psychological and emotional aspects; and (6) engagement and motivation. Additionally, we propose a future research agenda, shedding light on prevalent theories and underexplored topics. This study serves as a valuable resource for researchers and librarians seeking insights into the nuances of SX in academic library settings. In particular, the identification of research clusters and opportunities can assist researchers in better positioning their studies and finding connections across several theoretical lenses and approaches.

Abstract
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are versatile platforms for carrying communications nodes such as Wi-Fi Access Points and cellular Base Stations. Flying Networks (FNs) offer on-demand wireless connectivity where terrestrial networks are impractical or unsustainable. However, managing communications resources in FNs presents challenges, particularly in optimizing UAV placement to maximize Quality of Service (QoS) for Ground Users (GUs) while minimizing energy consumption, given the UAVs' limited battery life. Existing multi-UAV placement solutions primarily focus on maximizing coverage areas, assuming static UAV positions and uniform GU distribution, overlooking energy efficiency and heterogeneous QoS requirements. We propose the Sustainable multi-UAV Performance-aware Placement (SUPPLY) algorithm, which defines and optimizes UAV trajectories to reduce energy consumption while ensuring QoS based on Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) in the links with GUs. Additionally, we introduce the Multi-UAV Energy Consumption (MUAVE) simulator to evaluate energy consumption. Using both MUAVE and ns-3 simulators, we evaluate SUPPLY in typical and random networking scenarios, focusing on energy consumption and network performance. Results show that SUPPLY reduces energy consumption by up to 25% with minimal impact on throughput and delay.

Abstract
Entrepreneurs’ decision-making in sustainable open innovation practices holds significant relevance in fostering environmentally conscious and socially responsible business strategies. Sustainable decision-making not only aligns with ethical principles but also addresses pressing global challenges such as climate change and resource depletion. This study aims to characterize the decision-making role played by entrepreneurs in the context of the open innovation paradigm and to understand the factors that influence entrepreneurial performance. A quantitative methodology supported by Partial Least Squares Structural Equation Modeling was adopted, considering a sample of 407 startups incubated in science and technology parks. After that, a mixed-methods approach was employed to explore the differences between sectors of activity, in which 4 ventures were involved. The results confirm that of the 9 hypotheses formulated in the relationship between the constructs, only innovation novelty is not significant for sustainable open innovation management processes, unlike innovation openness. This study offers theoretical and practical implications for startups that intend to use open innovation networks to integrate environmental and social considerations into the core of business strategies.
