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
Analysis of sports performance using mobile and wearable devices is becoming increasingly popular, helping users improve their sports practice. In this context, the goal of this work has been the development of an Apple Watch application, capable of detecting important strokes in the table tennis sport, using a deep learning (DL) model. A dataset of table tennis strokes has been created based on the watch's accelerometer and gyroscope sensors. The dataset collection was done in the Portuguese table tennis federation training sites, from several athletes, supervised by their coaches. To obtain the best DL model, three different architecture models where trained, compared and evaluated, using the complete dataset: a LSTM based on Create ML/Core ML frameworks (62.70% F1 score) and two Tensorflow based architectures, a CNN-LSTM (96.02% F1 score) and a ConvLSTM (97.33% F1 score).

Abstract
Performance indicators, such as the SAIFI and the SAIDI, are commonly used by regulatory agencies to evaluate the performance of distribution companies (DisCos). Based on such indicators, it is common practice to apply penalties or grant rewards if the indicators are greater to or less than a given threshold. This work proposes a new multi-objective optimization model for pinpointing the critical assets involved in outage events based on past performance indicators, such as the SAIDI and the System Average Interruption Duration Exceeding Threshold (SAIDET) indexes. Our approach allows to retrieve the minimal set of assets in large historical interruption datasets that most contribute to past performance indicators. A case study using a real interruption dataset between the years 2011-2104 from a Brazilian DisCo revealed that the optimal inspection plan according to the decision maker preferences consist of 332 equipment out of a total of 5873. This subset of equipment, which contribute 61.90% and 55.76% to the observed SAIFI and SAIDET indexes in that period, can assist managerial decisions for preventive maintenance actions by prioritizing technical inspections to assets deemed as critical.

Abstract
Meta-learning is increasingly used to support the recommendation of machine learning algorithms and their configurations. These recommendations are made based on meta-data, consisting of performance evaluations of algorithms and characterizations on prior datasets. These characterizations, also called meta-features, describe properties of the data which are predictive for the performance of machine learning algorithms trained on them. Unfortunately, despite being used in many studies, meta-features are not uniformly described, organized and computed, making many empirical studies irreproducible and hard to compare. This paper aims to deal with this by systematizing and standardizing data characterization measures for classification datasets used in meta-learning. Moreover, it presents an extensive list of meta-features and characterization tools, which can be used as a guide for new practitioners. By identifying particularities and subtle issues related to the characterization measures, this survey points out possible future directions that the development of meta-features for meta-learning can assume.
