“…Early research on social connection identified the importance of an individual's perception of social inclusion as the determinant of belonging or loneliness (Cacioppo & Patrick, 2008). Perceived community support can increase resilience, enhance the evaluation of personal resources (Layous & Nelson-Coffey, 2020) and increase exercise motivation (Chen et al, 2014). A recent measure of community perception is the construct of KM.…”

Sales of home exercise equipment skyrocketed due to the social restrictions imposed during the pandemic. The Peloton stationary bike, for example, received wide media coverage due to user testimonials about how using the bike positively impacted their mental health and personal growth. Based on self-determination theory (SDT) principles of autonomy, competence, and social connection, this study focused on immersive exercise’s relation to social connection in keeping with research linking perceptions of belonging to attitude and behavior change. This study hypothesized that Peloton’s social features would enhance social connection and predict change in personal growth perceptions. Measures included (a) equipment features categorized based on SDT, (b) kama muta (KM) using Kama Muta Multiplex Scale (KAMMUS) Two subscales to capture community belonging, (c) a parasocial interaction inventory to measure instructor attachment, and (d) subscales of the Posttraumatic Growth Inventory to identify personal growth. A convenience sample of 1,036 Peloton users completed an online survey. Results indicated that Peloton use was associated with improved mental health, preference for social engagement features predicted KM, and KM explained 36% of the variation in personal growth. Findings suggest that technology-enabled experiences addressed social needs, increasing belonging during the pandemic and promoting personal growth. Results highlight virtual exercise’s potential for mental and physical health benefits and for technology-driven social cues to enhance user satisfaction and membership growth. Limitations are acknowledged.

“…Architectural Description Languages (ADLs) are languages proposed specifically to represent software architectures, which differentiate them from other languages that are applied for this purpose but not proposed for it (such as graphs and UML). Overwall, 10 studies used ADLs, among which the ADLs applied are: Dynamic Wright (ALLEN et al, 1998), SosADL (OQUENDO, 2016 and AADL (CHEN et al, 2014;ZHANG et al, 2016). One of the main advantages in the use of ADL's is the possibility of using tools for automatic validation and verification, assessing requirements such as performance and availability.…”

Architectural Views to the Representation of Dynamic Software Architectures

Presently, several critical application domains have adopted large, complex, and softwareintensive systems, whose architectural design demand special attention. Such systems, occasionally display dynamic architectures and specific structures are required for supporting changes at run-time. Moreover, many of them require high levels of reliability due to their critical domains. Towards ensuring reliability, formal languages/notations have been used to represent dynamism in software architectures, which demand efforts and time to be learned and to model architectures; besides, the resulting models are of difficult understanding. Moreover, most of these representation are incomplete, lacking some relevant information. To mitigate this problem, this Master's project proposes a set of architectural views and associate semi-formal techniques that support architects in the design of software architectures that present dynamism. This Master's project proposes a set of architectural views and associated semi-formal techniques for supporting architects in the design of software architectures that show dynamism. From results of a systematic mapping study, a conceptual model was elaborated towards delimiting the main concepts to be covered by the views. A set of fine views (general view, reconfiguration view, rippleeffect view, scenario view, and strategy view) was then defined and a proof of concept was conducted with the use of a system for the Healthcare Supportive Home Systems domain. The results show the feasibility and suitability of using the set in combination with the conceptual model and the associated techniques for representing dynamism in software architectures.
