In the paper A Proposal of Improvements based on New Technologies for the Satisfaction of Passengers on Board Passenger Ship by T. V´azquez V´azquez et al., the authors study di↵erent opinions of experts in the sector of passenger transport by sea on board of di↵erent types of ships. Their main aim is to develop global applications in real time that allow to o↵er services on board according to the habits of the passage. They conclude that the evaluation of passenger satisfaction assessments, based on opinion polling on di↵erent services provided on passenger ships, should show which are the most valued and least valued on-board services, which are considered to be the most appropriate to propose formulas for improvement measures.
In the paper Is Spain more ecient than the other countries of EU-28? Searching the answer through DEA and Malmquist Index by T. Sanz et al., the authors analyze Natural and Managerial eciency of the 28 countries of EU from 2005 to 2013 using the Malmquist index (MI) and considering crosses on the eciency frontiers between years with windows of two years. As input variables, gross capital formation (GCF), final energy consumption, renewable energy consumption and employment have been used. Gross domestic product (GDP) has been taken as desirable output and greenhouse gas emissions as undesirable output. The obtained results indicate that Spain has a similar behavior to those countries that have more time in the EU, both in terms of Managerial eciency and Natural eciency.
In the paper Using MDE for the Reconciliation of Entities in Large Data Sources by J.G. Enr´ıquez et al., the authors propose an approach based on the Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) paradigm and the virtual-graph technology to solve the problem of entity reconciliation in large volumes of data. MDE provides a solution scalable to any domain. And the virtual-graph technology allows to use any type of algorithm based on graphs to find a solution to a specific problem and to avoid storing all the information available in the same structure. This solution is applied to the management of large volumes of data related to the historical heritage of the Andalusian region in Spain.
In the paper Dynamic Management of Appointments in Sanitary Environments: A Systematic Literature Review by V. Cid de la Paz Furest et al., the authors provide an extensive systematic literature review about the use of dynamic programming in the management of appointments in health centers, in order to analyze the current state of this technology in the health environment, and to identify keys for future research.

Dedicated to Dr. Jose Manuel M´arquez
We would like to dedicate this book of proceedings to Dr. Jose Manuel M´arquez, who unfortunately is no longer among us, and who participated very actively in previous JARCA workshops. We will always have you in our hearts. 2CogQDA: https://sites.google.com/site/cogqda/ • Estimating the Stress for Drivers and Passengers Using Deep Learning V´ıctor Corcoba Magan˜a, Mario Mun˜oz Organero, Jesu´s Arias Fisteus, and Luis S´anchez Fern´andez • Parameter Set Selection and Classification of Sleep Phases Tracing
