Desarrollo de una Aplicación Móvil para la Publicación, Difusión e Información del Avance de los Proyectos de Investigación en la Escuela Politécnica Nacional

Abstract

Develop a mobile application for the publication, dissemination and information of research projects within the National Polytechnic School, using SCRUM as a framework, to promote and improve scientific research among the members of the polytechnic community.

The research projects that arise in the National Polytechnic School (EPN) promote the development of innovative solutions to problems of various kinds. However, some projects are not carried out due to certain factors: they are not disseminated properly, there is not enough information about them, there are no places to promote and disseminate research projects.

This project aims to create a site where students and teachers can publish, disseminate and learn about these types of projects in a simple and efficient way. It is also desired that for research projects it is possible to find collaborators who are informed through technological platforms of dissemination of the projects that are being executed and those that are in the preparation process.

The application was developed for the Android operating system, since it is the most popular in the world; in addition, the Scrum agile development framework was used, due to the limited resources available during the development of the project.
