aplicativo para apoiar mulheres vulneráveis em situações de risco: um projeto de software

Abstract

There was an exponential increase in situations of domestic violence even in the post-isolation period of COVID-19, according to the rate of complaints and/or cases of aggression against women inside their homes. This study intends, therefore, to help women who suffer domestic violence through the intervention of people close to them. The main objective of this study is to develop a software project to allow victims of domestic violence at risk to communicate with people and/or organizations able to intervene. The methodology of this research is applied and with a qualitative approach. In order to fulfill the objectives, the following steps were developed: (1) information integration with the system intended, bearing in mind the different technologies and strategies for acquiring, representing and disseminating data; (2) Human- computer interaction - IHC which will allow an adequate and easy interaction with the user and will promote the action of the agents involved with an emphasis on ease of use and awareness; (3) data visualization that allow understanding the relationships between information, which requires a system of information representation and information analysis; (4) databases integration, due to the amount of information in different and distributed bases and platforms; and Artificial Intelligence, which aims to identify patterns that can be understood by the system and by the people involved in issuing and receiving information. The result of this study was, therefore, an application software project to support women at risk, free of charge with easy access and use, since the majority belong to the lower social class with a lower level of education.
