Abstract
No contexto atual do acesso à informação, foi identificada uma necessidade de automatização da construção de sites para gestão e divulgação de eventos. O grande desafio para os gestores de eventos debate-se com a contratação de um profissional ou empresa que elabore o design web específico para o evento e que se responsabilize pelas questões do seu alojamento e disponibilização online. Dada a diversidade de conceitos técnicos, ferramentas e tipos de eventos, torna-se necessária uma abordagem dinâmica, que possibilite uma mais rápida disponibilização do site ao gestor do evento, atendendo às suas necessidades de layout e funcionalidades.
O EventCluster tem como objetivo colmatar um conjunto de problemas associados à disponibilização de sites de gestão de eventos, dada a multiplicidade de tipos de eventos. A plataforma encontra-se dividida em duas partes, consistindo a primeira numa aplicação de criação e gestão de templates para gestão de eventos. A segunda parte representa uma instância de um template, onde o interessado em gerir um evento terá ao seu dispor as funcionalidades necessárias para o fazer. Para além do gestor do evento, são considerados outros utilizadores da interface do evento, tais como visitante, participante e voluntário, cada um tendo acesso às respetivas funcionalidades. Esta plataforma pretende demonstrar o conceito da elaboração prévia de templates de sites, com possibilidade de algum tipo de configuração por quem os adquire, por forma a disponibilizar mais rapidamente um produto ao cliente, com pouca ou nenhuma intervenção pós-venda específica por parte do programador. Para além da rapidez, esta configuração pode diminuir o valor de venda do produto, tornando-o mais atrativo para o cliente
Abstract: In the current times where there is a large flow of information access, it was identified an automation need for website creation specialised in event management and promotion. The main challenge for event managers lies in hiring a professional or company to design a specific web layout for the event and take responsibility for its hosting and online availability. Given the diversity of technical concepts, tools, and types of events, a dynamic approach is required to allow for quicker availability of the website meeting their layout and functionality needs. EventCluster aims to address a set of issues related to the availability of event management websites, considering the multiplicity of event types. The platform is divided into two parts, the first being an application for creating and managing templates for event management. The second part represents an instance of a template, where those interested in managing an event will have access to the necessary functionalities to do so. In addition to the event manager, other users of the event interface are considered, such as visitors, participants, and volunteers, each with access to their respective functionalities. This platform aims to demonstrate the concept of pre-prepared website templates, allowing some level of configuration by those who acquire them. This approach provides a faster product to the client, with little to no specific post-sale intervention from the programmer. In addition to speed, this configuration can lower the product’s price, making it more attractive to the client.
