Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Desarrollo de un prototipo móvil multiplataforma para servicios turísticos en Cuenca, Ecuador, basado en la evaluación de tecnologías actuales(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Echeverría Campoverde, Matías Daniel; Rivas Loyola, Miguel Andrés; Pinos Castillo, Luis Fernando; 0751001942; 0750246225The digital transformation of the tourism sector demands scalable and high-performance technological tools. This study addresses the development of a cross-platform mobile application for tourist information management, proposing an architecture optimized for geolocation and real-time data management. The main objective was to identify and validate the most efficient technology for map rendering and content synchronization. Methodologically, an experimental design was applied in two phases: first, a comparative evaluation of leading frameworks (Flutter, React Native, Xamarin, and Ionic) based on performance metrics (launch time and CPU consumption); and second, the implementation of a functional prototype using the selected technology. The results determined the technical superiority of Flutter, which recorded a launch time of 1.27 seconds and stable rendering at 110 FPS, overcoming the latency limitations of hybrid approaches. As a practical result, an application with Clean Architecture and Supabase-based Backend-as-a-Service (BaaS) infrastructure was developed, validating that the cross-compiled approach allows for fluid user experiences and robust data management, comparable to native development but with greater cost efficiency.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Embargo , Proyecto de Titulación embargado con fines de publicación de impacto.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Juca Iñiguez, Johnny Alexander; Campoverde Molina, Milton Alfredo; 0106445323Item type: Ítem , Access status: Embargo , Proyecto de Titulación embargado con fines de publicación de impacto(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Lucero Yunga , Hugo Leonardo; Poma Japón, Diana Ximena; 1401058985Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Implementación de un prototipo móvil para la gestión de actividades y eventos comunitarios en Cuenca, Ecuador(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Astudillo Palacio, Pablo Mateo; Tierra Carvajal, Jeremy Jesús; Pinos Castillo, Luis Fernando; 0106148398; 0250365335The objective of this study was to identify usability characteristics and essential functionalities that mobile applications must integrate to improve community event management in Latin American contexts, specifically in Cuenca, Ecuador. A systematic comparative analysis of four event management platforms available in Latin America was conducted through an evaluation matrix that included functionalities, usability according to Nielsen heuristics, business models, and contextual adaptability. Subsequently, a functional prototype named Azuevento was developed using Scrum agile methodology in six two-week sprints, implemented with React Native for cross-platform frontend and microservices architecture with Spring Boot and PostgreSQL for backend. The prototype validation was carried out through a structured protocol with twenty citizens of Cuenca, applying the System Usability Scale questionnaire and semi-structured interviews. The comparative analysis revealed that existing platforms present three critical limitations for community contexts: dependence on commission-based business models inaccessible to non-profit organizations, lack of functionalities adapted to specific local geographies, and lack of consideration toward digital literacy barriers. The developed prototype integrated the identified best practices and obtained an average System Usability Scale score of 69.12 points, positioning slightly above the average usability threshold and demonstrating adaptation to the local context through functionalities specifically designed for inclusive citizen participation. It is concluded that mobile applications for community event management in Latin America require contextualized design that considers local particularities, viable business models for community organizations, and functionalities that promote accessible citizen participation.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Asistente inteligente para consulta asistida por IA y recuperación de información en documentos PDF académicos(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Encalada Arévalo, Carla Andrea; Campoverde Molina, Milton Alfredo; 0106515018The objective of this work was to develop and locally verify an intelligent assistant to query academic documents from a repository of the Catholic University of Cuenca. In this context, the problem is that lengthy documents make it difficult to quickly and accurately locate information when relying solely on traditional keyword search. To address this, we implemented a prototype that converts content into vector representations, performs semantic search using the Facebook AI Similarity Search (FAISS) library, and generates locally executed responses with Ollama. The prototype has a client-server architecture and integrates document loading, text chunking, semantic retrieval, and history persistence through Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG). Additionally, the prototype incorporates references to the analyzed document and clearly indicates when there is insufficient evidence to answer. The methodology used was Scrum, and we conducted end-to-end tests on single-file and batch loading. We also applied a perception survey to four participants to assess ease of use, clarity, usefulness, and user experience. Regarding performance results, the current version of the prototype increases document ingestion and indexing time compared to the initial version. This is because the second version generates more embeddings but improves evidence retrieval and response quality. It is concluded that an intelligent document assistant optimizes the query process by reducing search times and eliminating dependence on external services.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Embargo , Proyecto de Titulación embargado con fines de publicación de impacto.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2026) Monteros Mogrovejo, Milton Sebastián; Campoverde Molina, Milton Alfredo; 0706388295Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Proyecto de Titulación embargado con fines de publicación de impacto(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025) Jiménez Arce, Jhon Miguel; Poma Japón, Diana Ximena; 1728638873Item type: Ítem , Access status: Embargo , Proyecto de Titulación embargado con fines de publicación de impacto.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025) Peralta Saguay , Darwin Ismael; Quevedo Sacoto , Andrés Sebastián; 0106816382Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Desarrollo de un sitio web interactivo para la gestión y venta de jugos artesanales "Liquid Bliss"(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025) Gómez Arteaga, Martín Zacarías; Poma Japón, Diana Ximena; 0106398357In an era where digitization makes the difference between growth and extinction, even micro-enterprises need technological solutions that boost their efficiency. The study aimed to evaluate the development and implementation of a web solution for order management and receipt generation in a micro-enterprise producing artisanal juices. The agile SCRUM methodology was applied over five sprints, and a system was implemented with a React + Vite + Tailwind frontend and a Django REST Framework backend on an SQL database. The solution integrated order registration and tracking modules, automatic PDF receipt generation, email notifications, location management with maps, and a payment flow (Zelle, Cash App, Apple Pay, cash) with proof-of-payment uploads and payment marking. The results of the functional and interface tests demonstrated stable operation, reduced errors, and a standardized operational flow, strengthening customer service and traceability. In conclusion, the platform demonstrated technical and operational viability in a low-cost context, making it replicable and scalable to similar food businesses. As future work, we plan to integrate a mobile application and analytical tools to optimize decision-making.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Software para la automatización de formatos académicos de prácticas profesionales y vinculación de la Universidad Católica de Cuenca(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025) León Beltrán, Marlon Santiago; Cuenca, Juan Pablo; 0107356511The Catholic University of Cuenca is undergoing an era of technological innovation and process automation. Currently, it faces a significant challenge in managing the forms related to pre-professional internships, community service, and internal internships, which are still managed manually. This involves a large amount of paperwork and administrative processes, which causes delays both in the preparation of the forms by the students and in their review and approval by the teaching staff. This situation significantly affects operational efficiency, increases the administrative burden, and complicates the timely monitoring of student progress in these key curricular components. Therefore, it is evident that an advanced digital solution is required for the comprehensive management of these documents. This need is justified by the limitations of the current manual handling system, which is not only prone to errors but also lacks agility and traceability in dynamic educational environments. The development of software based on digital technologies, process automation, and cloud storage would enable a substantial improvement in work efficiency, ensuring greater transparency, security, and accessibility in document management. This digital transformation would not only optimize the time of students and teachers, but also raise the quality of academic and administrative processes, aligning with the requirements of modern and efficient higher education.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Desarrollo del backend para un sistema de automatización de la gestión de proyectos de vinculación en la universidad católica de cuenca utilizando metodologías ágiles e inteligencia artificial(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025) Guaicha Vásquez, Kevin Oswaldo; Cuenca, Juan Pablo; 0105886949This research presents the development of a backend that automates the management of outreach projects at the Catholic University of Cuenca. The platform takes the information requested by the institutional format F-VS-41, verifies budgetary coherence, and generates the official Word document using dynamic templates and HTML blocks via the altChunk technique. Annexes are stored centrally in AWS S3, and natural language queries are resolved with Oracle Select AI on controlled views in Oracle Autonomous Database, preventing users from having to manually review the entire document. The system's structure followed a hybrid methodology based on Scrum and complemented by elements of the Rational Unified Process (RUP). It was developed in eight sprints covering authentication with JWT, persistence with JPA, dynamic document generation, attachment management, and artificial intelligence integration. Requirements engineering and solution evaluation were supported by the FURPS+ model. Functional (Postman) and load (JMeter) tests with 100 and 200 concurrent users demonstrated acceptable performance within the environment's limitations. In individual measurements, authentication operations (registration and login) respond in the order of hundreds of milliseconds; under sustained load, latency can increase to a few seconds due to the use of free versions of the database, S3, and the deployment platform. The generation of the F VS 41 document varies around 20–30 s when simulating 100 users and approaches 50 s with 200 users. Despite this, test coverage reaches 82%, and no discrepancies were observed between the amounts stored and those reflected in the final file. The developed system eliminates transcription errors, prevents rework, and accelerates the creation of the F VS 41, while also establishing a scalable foundation for incorporating extensions such as electronic signatures, a web interface, and social impact analytics. This automation contributes to strengthening traceability and transparency in the management of outreach projects, allowing for the demonstration, with verifiable data, of the social relevance of university initiatives.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Plataforma web para monitoreo y visualización de parámetros ambientales en café mediante sensores IoT(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025) Cedillo Illescas, Ángel Ariel; Encalada Arévalo, María Mercedes; Pazmiño Piedra, Juan Pablo; 015009736; 0104903950The main objective of this study was to design and develop a web platform for real-time monitoring of air and soil parameters in coffee plantations. The research was carried out at Hacienda La Papaya, Saraguro, Ecuador. The software development methodology used was SCRUM, which is oriented to the creation of fast and adaptable solutions to change. For data collection, an IoT sensor network was implemented using LoRa e32 modules that allowed wireless communication over long distances in areas without internet. The sensors used were: RS485 for the soil (measuring NPK, humidity, temperature, salinity, conductivity, and pH variables) and AM2302 for the air (temperature and humidity). An HLK-RM08 gateway was used for data transmission. For data processing, a backend was structured in Node.js, in charge of receiving and validating the data coming from the sensors and then storing them in the PostgreSQL database. For the visualization of real-time information, Grafana was used to create interactive panels,which allowed a more in-depth analysis of the data. The results obtained demonstrated the functionality and reliability of the platform, the processing and data storage capacity was validated for the end users' needs, which was 500 readings/hour, with a latency of less than one minute in the dashboard. This solution was validated as a viable and low-cost tool that optimizes agronomic management, thus boosting agriculture and creating a base from which it can be expanded with the implementation of predictive modules, georeferencing, and even artificial intelligence.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Proyecto de Titulación embargado con fines de publicación de impacto.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025) Solano Arpi, Danny Steven; Barbecho Pineda, Robinson Josué; Gaona Pineda, Jheyson Steven; 0107831562; 0105307961Item type: Ítem , Access status: Embargo , Proyecto de Titulación embargado con fines de publicación de impacto.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025) Guillermo Benavides, Eddison Steven; Quevedo Sacoto, Sebastián; 0107266488Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Desarrollo de una aplicación móvil para el control de un robot autónomo que resuelve cubos Rubik 3x3 utilizando impresión 3D y algoritmos de visión computacional(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025) López Rojas, Boris Adrián; Pazmiño Piedra, Juan PabloCurrently, many technological advancements are reaching their peak objectives: to simplify human life, solve problems, and provide insights into their use and benefits in an increasingly automated society. For example, we undertook this project to address the lack of capabilities in individuals with disabilities, whether related to learning or their extremities; that is, the inability to perform movements requiring motor assistance, such as the fingers when solving a 3x3 Rubik's Cube. To that end, we chose to develop this prototype using the V-Model + SCRUM methodology, with results considered correct when the device is used to solve our 3x3 Rubik's Cube. Our objective is to get feedback from the users, including those with disabilities such as missing limbs or other setbacks that prevent them from fully completing the Rubik's Cube puzzle, resulting in a solved Rubik's Cube by simply placing it in the prototype in front of a webcam and pressing a button.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Proyecto de Titulación embargado con fines de publicación de impacto.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025) Ponce Morocho, Mauricio José; Sañay Sañay , Segundo Isael; 0107064248Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Proyecto de Titulación embargado con fines de publicación de impacto.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025) Pesantez Alvarado, María Cristina; Cajamarca Criollo, Olger Antonio; 0302016720Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Proyecto de Titulación embargado con fines de publicación de impacto(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025) Morocho Yunga, Luis Esteban; Poma Japón, Diana Ximena; 0106544018Item type: Ítem , Access status: Acceso Abierto , Prototipo de arquitectura de microservicios para sistemas transaccionales financieros con keycloak(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025) Santacruz Erraez, Luis Fernando; Poma Japón, Diana Ximena; 0107024259In a financial environment where security, scalability, and regulatory compliance are essential, an advanced microservices architecture prototype is presented, designed to enhance the efficiency and resilience of transactional systems. The proposed solution integrates Spring Boot, Spring Cloud, Eureka, Keycloak, and Docker, enabling centralized authentication, load balancing, and high availability, with a scalable approach based on inheritance and efficient load distribution. Given the growing demands of the financial sector, such as low latency, high resilience, and the need for compliance with current international regulations (ISO 27001, PCI DSS, Fintech Law), the study introduces a modular infrastructure with an API Gateway based on Spring Cloud, ensuring interoperability with traditional banking systems through REST, gRPC, and WebSockets protocols. Performance and security tests validated the system’s efficiency, achieving response times below 100 ms in critical transactions, secure authentication via OAuth2 and MFA, and centralized monitoring using Spring Boot Admin. The architecture demonstrated the ability to handle up to one million daily transactions without degradation, ensuring its suitability for high-traffic financial environments. This study confirms that a well-structured microservices architecture provides greater flexibility, security, and scalability than monolithic systems. Its implementation in digital banking and fintech ecosystems can enhance user experience, reduce operational costs, and strengthen financial cybersecurity, ensuring seamless adaptation to evolving regulations and emerging technologies.Item type: Ítem , Access status: Embargo , Proyecto de Titulación embargado con fines de publicación de impacto.(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2025) Mora Cabrera, David Esteban; Sañay Sañay, Segundo Isael; 0105599385
