Article Citation - WoS: 20Citation - Scopus: 25A Study on the Key Soft Skills for Successful Participation of Students in Multinational Engineering Education(Tempus Publications, 2017) Fernandez-Sanz, Luis; Teresa Villalba, Maria; Amelio Medina, Jose; Misra, Sanjay; Computer EngineeringSoft-skills have proved to be a necessary complement to technical skills in today's multinational workplaces. As universities are facing the challenge of promoting internationalization and mobility in students and teachers, they have to decide how to help their students in developing these skills as well as increase their awareness on the cultural differences in multinational settings. After a long trajectory of participation in multinational educational experiences, the authors launched a survey to check if their previous findings on the preferred soft skills by educational experts and managers still remain valid after 5 years. Another goal of the study was the analysis of the link between preference for specific soft skills and cultural background in each country as characterized by Hofstede's indicators. The data collected from 123 experts from 45 different countries have confirmed the existence of a stable core set of preferred soft skills at global level and also for European countries. Results have also shown links between specific cultural indicators and preference for some soft skills.Article Citation - WoS: 5Citation - Scopus: 5Applying Model-Driven Paradigm for the Improvement of Web Requirement Validation(Budapest Tech, 2012) Aragon, Gustavo; Escalona, M. J.; Hilera, Jose R.; Fernandez-Sanz, Luis; Misra, Sanjay; Computer EngineeringThis paper proposes an approach for Web requirements validation by applying the model-driven paradigm in classical requirements validation techniques. In particular, we present how the Navigational Development Techniques (NDT) approach exploits the model-driven paradigm to improve its requirements validation task by exploring tool cases that systematize or even automate the application of requirements validation techniques. Our solution is validated by applying it in a real industrial environment. The results and the learned lessons are presented accordingly.Article Citation - WoS: 7Citation - Scopus: 6Present and Future of Web Content Accessibility: an Analysis(Univ Osijek, Tech Fac, 2013) Hilera, Jose R.; Fernandez-Sanz, Luis; Misra, Sanjay; Computer EngineeringThe Web was created as a universal network of knowledge. It represented a huge qualitative and quantitative leap in terms of acquisition and processing of information. However, even today, significant barriers make difficult the access of a large number of citizens to the web, including disabled users and old people with diminished skills as an effect of age. Accessibility is the feature which facilitates access to and successful usage of a web site or service for as many people as possible, regardless of their personal limitations or limitations imposed by their environment. This article reviews the main aspects of web accessibility and its future, passing through the effective implementation of guidelines known as 2.0, which ensure compliance with existing legislation at national and international level.Conference Object Characterizing the Position of Cio(Aisti-assoc Iberica Sistemas & Tecnologias informacao, 2012) Cano, Carmen; Fernandez-Sanz, Luis; Misra, Sanjay; Computer EngineeringThis paper describes how the CIO position appear as a key role in the organizations and which are the requirements for candidates to it.
