Desarrollo de una aplicación móvil y web para la inteligencia de negocio en el sector camaronero aplicando el estándar iso/iec-25010.

Abstract

Web and mobile applications have enabled greater growth in various productive sectors in Ecuador by facilitating the execution of tasks, process optimization, data analysis and processing, among other benefits, and have therefore become important tools for small and large companies. The aquaculture sector, especially shrimp farming, is still in a transition process that seeks to optimize the analysis and management of its information through the integration of digital tools. Shrimp farm owners are looking for options that allow efficient control of operations and internal processes. Currently, information is recorded manually in notebooks or, in the best of cases, using spreadsheets; however, as time goes by and due to the large amounts of information, they become inefficient, and the great advantages obtained by analyzing the information collected are not taken advantage of. This technological proposal aims to solve this problem through the development of a web application and a mobile application that will allow shrimp farm owners or managers to keep an efficient record of their workers, shrimp farms, pools, runs, suppliers, distributors, and at the same time, they can track their sales and expenses through the implementation of business intelligence that will group a series of key performance indicators (KPIs) in an intuitive information dashboard in order to optimize decision making. For the development of these applications we used a client-server architecture that allowed an easy interaction of the applications (web and mobile) with the same backend, which in turn was hosted in the cloud through Functions, the server uses Node.js and an API Rest to manage the various HTTP requests sent by users and provide the necessary information quickly and easily through the standardized JSON format. The storage of the information is done using Firestore which is a non-relational database that is based on documents containing the information in key-value format, while for saving content such as images of attachments and invoices Storage has been used, furthermore for easy access to the web application it has been hosted in Hosting, all the mentioned tools comprise a set of services provided by Google's Firebase. For the creation of the frontend we have used the React Native and Expo frameworks that allow the creation of cross-platform applications through a single code base thus streamlining the development process. The SWIRL agile methodology has also been incorporated in order to ensure the progress of quality software, which has a model based on iterations that integrates the user in each of its phases to ensure compliance with the established requirements. The web application was analyzed using SEO tools in order to know the status of its structure, performance, and positioning capacity in the main Internet search engines, obtaining favorable results in the areas of security, SEO, mobile adaptation and performance. Finally, a quality evaluation was carried out based on the set of metrics established by ISO/IEC-25010, which showed that the applications have a high percentage of attributes such as efficiency, usability, performance, among others.
