Organisations, the world over are increasingly focussing their efforts on radical measures to enhance their competitive edge. One such area of interest focuses on reduction in the time taken in classical process of managerial group decision-making. The rapid strides made in the field of Information Technology have opened new opportunities to qualitatively enhance productivity of collaborative work. Group Decision Support System (GDSS) focuses on the aspect of introducing technology, in a graded manner, into the process of group decisionmaking. It seeks to fundamentally alter the angularities of such interaction and present a technology driven platform for the purpose. However, the basic process of group interaction needs to be more clearly understood before any wide-scale implementation of GDSS can prove beneficial. A model of the evolving GDSS process is presented which affords a framework for further research into the contemporary technology-driven collaborative process. It is proposed that the advent of IT offers a unique opportunity to re-engineer the group decision making processes so as to significantly benefit from the GDSS paradigm.

With evidence from fifty-nine organizations that worked to support or oppose the confirmation of Judge Robert H. Bork to the Supreme Court, we investigate how interest groups utilize their resources to influence politics. We assess the frequency with which advocacy groups adopt (1) an "inside the beltway" strategy, which involves their own members making direct appeals to officeholders; (2) an "outside the beltway" strategy, which involves enlisting the support of an unpredictable public through media campaigns; or (3) some combination of the two. We further develop and test a predictive model of the choice, allowing us to see the impact that the groups’ resource and attitudes have on adopting one strategy or another. Among other things the findings help clarify the important role played by the mass public in Washington politics.

Full textAbstract:
Merging operators aim at defining the beliefs/goals of a group of agents from the beliefs/goals of each member of the group. Whenever an agent of the group has preferences over the possible results of the merging process (i.e., the possible merged bases), she can try to rig the merging process by lying on her true beliefs/goals if this leads to better merged base according to her point of view. Obviously, strategy-proof operators are highly desirable in order to guarantee equity among agents even when some of them are not sincere. In this paper, we draw the strategy-proof landscape for many merging operators from the literature, including model-based ones and formula-based ones. Both the general case and several restrictions on the merging process are considered.

Full textAbstract:
This research was inspired by a particular business problem – the search for an optimal model of strategy-making process in Severstal, a major Russian metals and mining company going through a period of rapid growth and transformation.
The research reports on the results of a longitudinal explorative case study based on two distinct empirical projects. The first project addressed strategy process nature, participants, roles of corporate centre, time perspective and impact of the external environment. Its results highlighted the importance of CEO leadership and personal traits, which became the principal focus of the second empirical project.
The key empirical contribution of the research was definition of "leader-focused decentralisation" as a particular approach to strategy-making in a multi-business group. This approach combines decentralized, bottom-up, business units-led generation of strategic proposals and initiatives with a crucial role of a company leader as a deeply involved decision-maker, presiding over a small and lean corporate centre with minimal corporate rules and bureaucracy. In Severstal’s case, the "leader-focused decentralisation" approach to strategy was a good match to its volatile yet rewarding external environment.
The suggested model can be seen as an empirically-derived step towards a theoretical synthesis of "activist" vs. "detached" views of corporate centre roles in relation to strategy process in multi-business firms. It exhibited some distinctive features which were not yet described in other contexts, including co-existence of strong entrepreneurial leadership and organisational decentralisation. From a practical standpoint, the research highlighted weaknesses and limitations of existing strategy-making model and offered a background for the discussion of ways to develop it in the future.

This research’s goal was to investigate the existing challenges of the succession process of a family corporate group, aiming to develop strategies regarding the succession process through scenarios simulation. For this purpose, the Rojo’s Model for Scenarios Simulation was applied in all its five levels: Delphi technique, competitive intelligence, scenarios simulation, strategy formulation and action plans elaboration. The research applied a qualitative approach, consisting of an exploratory study, characterized as a case study. In order to achieve the critical variables which were necessary to feed the model, the Delphi technique was applied through semi structured interviews with five experts. In the aftermath of the critical variables’ choice and the application of the competitive intelligence tools, two different scenarios were simulated. For the first scenario four strategies were formulated, and for the second scenario, other three strategies were elaborated. After that, distinct goals for each strategy were created. The achieved results support that scenarios simulation, Rojo’s Model in particular, represents a valuable tool to plan the succession process in family businesses, since it enables the organization to answer quickly and more effectively to changes which may occur during the pathway.
O objetivo desta pesquisa foi diagnosticar os desafios presentes no processo sucessório de um grupo empresarial familiar, visando desenvolver estratégias para esse processo, por meio da simulação de cenários. Para tanto, o Modelo Rojo de Simulação de Cenários foi aplicado em todos os seus cinco níveis: técnica Delphi, inteligência competitiva, simulação de cenários, formulação de estratégias e elaboração dos planos de ação. O estudo utilizou uma abordagem qualitativa, do tipo exploratório e se caracteriza como um estudo de caso. Para a obtenção das variáveis críticas necessárias à alimentação do modelo, a técnica Delphi foi aplicada através da realização de entrevistas semiestruturadas com cinco especialistas. Após a escolha das variáveis críticas e aplicação das ferramentas de inteligência competitiva, foram simulados dois cenários. Para o primeiro cenário foram formuladas quatro estratégias e, para o segundo cenário, outras três estratégias foram elaboradas. Na sequência, foram elaboradas as metas para cada estratégia criada. Os resultados obtidos confirmam que o método de simulação de cenários, o Modelo Rojo em particular, constitui uma ferramenta valiosa para o planejamento do processo sucessório em empresas familiares, pois através dele é possível preparar a organização para responder mais velozmente e eficazmente às mudanças de trajetória.

Full textAbstract:
This study examined stakeholders’' perceptions of a leader identification process as a part of the launch of a leader development pool strategy within a large, U.S.-based corrections organization. Stakeholder perceptions included stakeholder expectations of, roles in, and contributions to the organization’'s leader identification strategy and process, which were aimed at addressing a sparse leadership bench.
This single, descriptive case study centered around a leader identification initiative involving leaders and emerging leaders who were nominated for or applied to an accelerated development program. Fourteen leaders participated in the study. Their average tenure with the organization was 14.3 years. This study examined stakeholder perceptions around three phases of the initiative: the kick-off and communication phase (Phase 1), the talent review phase (Phase 2), and the disposition and development phase (Phase 3).
The study’'s findings revealed agreement among stakeholder groups that (1) clearly defined roles and responsibilities were critical to building the leadership bench, (2) open and honest talent discussions were more important than the systems and processes designed to build leadership capacity, (3) the talent pool approach taken by the organization undermined true succession planning and targeted development, and (4) stakeholder expectations and involvement drove the need for planned changes in the leader identification and development strategy.

Les théories de la Corporate Governance et la théorie de la psychologie sociale du petit groupe de prise de décision sont mobilisées afin de comprendre le mode de fonctionnement du conseil de surveillance hospitalier public et plus précisément pour tester empiriquement la relation de médiation du processus de prise de décision (les normes d’efforts, l’utilisation des connaissances et des habiletés et le confit cognitif) entre sa structure (la taille, la composition et la diversité) et la performance de ses rôles (la stratégie, le contrôle et le service). 320 questionnaires en provenance des membres des conseils de surveillance hospitaliers ont été recueillis. L’agrégation de ces réponses individuelles génère un échantillon de 159 conseils de surveillance hospitaliers publics. Les résultats des tests des hypothèses du modèle de recherche confirment le fait que la structure du conseil de surveillance n’influence pas la performance de ses rôles. Les normes d’efforts affectent positivement la performance des rôles .Seules les normes d’efforts et l’utilisation des connaissances et des habiletés médiatisent partiellement la relation processuelle entre la structure et la performance des rôlesCorporate governance theories and the theory of the psychology of the small decision making group are used in order to understand the functioning mode of the public hospital supervisory board and specifically to test empirically the mediating relationship of the decision making process (Efforts norms, use of skills and knowledge and cognitive conflict) between the structure of the public hospital supervisory board (size, composition and diversity) and the performance of its roles (strategy ,control and service).320 questionnaires answered by the supervisory board members were collected. The aggregate of those individual responses generated 159 public hospital supervisory boards. The results of the hypothesis test of the model show that the supervisory board structure doesn’t influence the performance role of the supervisory board. Efforts norms influence positively the performance of its roles. Only the use of knowledge and skills, and efforts norms mediate the process relationship between the public hospital supervisory board structure and the performance of its roles

Strategic planning is a critical part of establishing an organization's direction. Although strategic planning is utilized throughout the United States Air Force today in various forms, group sessions can become time-consuming without structured planning and a focus on group communication. Computer-supported strategic planning is one way of making effective use of technology to improve the strategic planning process. This research implements a group support system (GSS) as a communication tool to facilitate the strategic planning process. The researcher investigates effects of a facilitator's using technology to structure verbal and electronic communication, with the goal of increasing quality output and improving group member satisfaction. This project was completed at Mountain Home Air Force Base with the support of the 366th Wing. As predicted, a GSS facilitator's structuring verbal and electronic communication improved the quality of the strategic plan, reduced time to complete a strategic plan, and increased satisfaction with the strategic planning process. The results did not indicate increased commitment to implement the strategic plans developed by a group using GSS facilitation.

Full textAbstract:
Like most challenging tasks in life rehearsal helps us to improve our performance, and with the interview, rehearsal is essential. This chapter discusses rehearsal strategies for the interview, considering groups, courses, modelling, and feedback (both from the group and on video). The advantages and disadvantages of interview courses are discussed. The chapter explores the benefit of rehearsal groups, the importance of the correct composition of such groups to be a positive influence, and how to give constructive feedback without undermining confidence. The chapter continues with an explanation of the modelling process as a group rehearsal strategy and thinks about how to apply empathy in the rehearsal group in order to enhance communication during the interview. This chapter includes a useful exercise for an interview rehearsal group to work towards having a panoramic perspective of performance.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter reviews the core meanings of the process of acculturation and its consequences for groups and individuals. At the cultural group level, acculturation involves changes in social structures and institutions and in cultural norms. At the individual psychological level, it involves changes in people’s behavioral repertoires and their eventual adaptation to these intercultural encounters. Three key issues are examined: how people choose to acculturate, how well they adapt to intercultural living, and whether there are any systematic relationships between how people acculturate and how well they adapt. The most common finding is that pursuing the integration strategy is related to higher levels of well-being. This chapter attends in particular to the health outcomes of acculturation, and seeks to outline the key features of this process that may permit the achievement of positive health and social outcomes following intercultural contact.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter looks at how the structure of bank groups is factored into the resolution process. In analysing the resolution of banks and other legal entities, a focus on the legal entities alone is a form of false consciousness. Instead, the focus needs to be on resolving the overall financial enterprise of which the bank is a part. By focusing on resolving groups instead of individual legal entities, financial regulatory authorities around the world have developed the single-point-of-entry (SPE) resolution strategy, which has been widely accepted as the most promising solution to the too-big-to-fail problem. When applied to a banking group with a holding company at the top and operating subsidiaries at the bottom, only the top-tier holding company would be put into a bankruptcy or resolution proceeding. The holding company’s assets would then be used to recapitalize the operating subsidiaries, perhaps pursuant to secured capital contribution agreements, and keep them out of their own insolvency or resolution proceedings. The recapitalized group would then be stabilized and its residual value distributed to the failed holding company's stakeholders in satisfaction of their claims.

Chapter 15 reviews the importance of strategy and research in the formation and drafting of a proposed public health law, including assessing potential support and opposition. The chapter dictates an iterative process whereby the proposal’s drafter should first seek to understand his or her own proposal and its goals, explore the values-and practical-based interests behind why anyone would care about the legal proposal, identify groups of people and individuals who sympathize with or oppose the interests or burdens underlying all aspects of the proposal, research the history and positions of these groups, and anticipate challenges to the proposed enactment and implementation.

Methodology for Evaluating National Arboviral Disease Prevention and Control Strategies in the Americas. Pan American Health Organization, 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.37774/9789275124413.
Full textAbstract:
The IMS-Arbovirus is a model that provides a methodological framework for arboviral disease prevention and control. It divides the compendium of actions to be taken into the following components, which are not listed in their order of importance: management, epidemiology (with emphasis on health surveillance), laboratory, patient care (clinical), integrated vector management (IVM), and environment (with emphasis on water, sanitation, and hygiene). It also proposes common crosscutting themes for each component: operations research and health communication and promotion for behavioral change. Each component and crosscutting theme is overseen and executed by personnel trained for this purpose. The Integrated Management Strategy for Arbovirus Disease Prevention and Control in the Americas contains a group of indicators selected by the countries, and a trained professional regularly conducts an informal evaluation of the strategy. This evaluation may be based on what the coordinator for each component or the participants in the process report, often based only on their own experiences. Generically, this methodology attempts to organize ideas and the methodologies that should be followed for best performance in an evaluation. The IMS-Arbovirus currently includes monitoring and evaluation from the outset, thus systematically coordinating its planning, monitoring, and evaluation. The main objective is for monitoring and evaluation to serve as a good mechanism for management, course correction, and accountability to advance and improve the quality and impact of management with the preparation of the IMS Arbovirus. The specific objectives are as follows: determine the progress made and barriers implementing the IMS-Arbovirus, formulate recommendations to improve the IMS-Arbovirus Implementation process, and create a monitoring plan based on the evaluation's results.

AbstractParticipatory stakeholder engagement in strategy-making, for industries such as Nature-based Health Tourism (NHT), enhances the delivery of more useful and applicable strategies, with also higher chances to reach intended goals if compared to conventional top-down planning processes. This chapter describes the methodology identified and carried out in the HEALPS2 project to efficiently reach and engage stakeholders of Alpine NHT and to form a stakeholder group at the transnational level (including the engagement of EU-level ac-tors and networks). Based on the Quadruple Helix concept, the methodology integrates a process of stakeholder engagement and endorsement along three steps; the identification of the key points and the problems to be tackled for a successful stakeholder engagement; and the development of Regional and Transnational Stakeholder Groups that extend to the cooperation with EU-wide networks. Developing health tourism products and service chains, and sustaining them with strategies and policies, is a complex undertaking. The adoption of the stakeholder engagement approaches throughout the HEALPS2 project showed that it is of utmost importance to properly identify, involve and communicate with the stakeholders who effectively complement the success of the project, and its outcomes, in enhancing NHT competitiveness.

Full textAbstract:
AbstractNature-based health tourism is experiencing a resurgence. To determine its potential as a development opportunity for alpine destinations, it is necessary to analyse both the demand and supply side. Two surveys were conducted: a representative survey of the population of six countries of the Alpine Space exploring the perception of the Alps as a healthy destination in general and on the personal assessment of the health effect of natural resources in particular and an exploratory survey of tourism stakeholders in destination management, accommodation and gastronomy as well as (health) tourism services with a focus on the expected economic developments and the relevance of individual target groups for nature-based health tourism. The results demonstrate the need for a strategic development process which aligns perceptions with destination strategy and pre-existing offers. Two potential strategies are briefly outlined: 1. destinations with non-locally specific alpine natural health resources can develop broad tourism experiences for health conditions that occur across society with health a secondary aspect in marketing. 2. destinations featuring locally specific natural health resources with proven evidence can develop offers for a specific condition and are thus able to target a very specific group.

Abstract This chapter presents the role urban literacy has played in the stakeholder engagement and gender equity efforts introduced to strengthen land governance in San Andrés Cholula's periurban communities. The chapter uses focus group discussion (FGD) from eight urban literacy workshops in five peri-urban communities of San Andrés Cholula. These FGDs were conducted during a period of 3 months (i.e. July to September 2019). The chapter is structured as follows. It starts with historical review of Cholula's sociopolitical office system and a critical evaluation of MPSUD based on the principles of good governance. Then follows a discussion of the process of the urban literacy workshops. This is then followed by a discussion of the role of women in strengthening land governance through urban literacy based on the outcomes of the workshops. Finally, the chapter concludes with emphasis on how urban literacy is a veritable strategy for strengthening land governance and for enabling inclusive participation in policy making.

AbstractThe results of recent foresight projects reveal the impact of future ICT tools on the practice of scientific research. This paper presents several aspects of the process of building scenarios and trends of selected advanced ICT technologies. We point out the implications of emerging global expert systems (GESs) and AI-based learning platforms (AILPs). GESs will be capable of using and processing global knowledge from all available sources, such as databases, repositories, video streams, interactions with other researchers and knowledge processing units. In many scientific disciplines, the high volume, density and increasing level of interconnection of data have already exhausted the capacities of any individual researcher. Three trends may dominate the development of scientific methodology. Collective research is one possible coping strategy: Group intellectual capacity makes it possible to tackle complex problems. Recent data flow forecasts indicate that even in the few areas, which still resist ICT domination, research based on data gathered in non-ICT supported collections will soon reach its performance limits due to the ever-growing amount of knowledge to be acquired, verified, exchanged and communicated between researchers. Growing automation of research is the second option: Automated expert systems will be capable of selecting and processing knowledge to the level of a professionally edited scientific paper, with only minor human involvement. The third trend is intensive development and deployment of brain–computer interfaces (BCIs) to quickly access and process data. Specifically, GESs and AILPs can be used together with BCIs. The above approaches may eventually merge, forming a few AI-related technological scenarios, as discussed to conclude the paper.

Full textAbstract:
This chapter talks about a young Frankish lord called Hugh of Caesarea who led a group of knights through the labyrinthine passages of the caliphal palace in Cairo in 1167. It describes Hugh's simple but brutal mission, in which he was tasked to negotiate a military alliance with the Fatimid government and extort a vast sum of protection money from them in the process. The chapter discusses the crusaders' loss of Edessa in 1144 and failure to take Damascus in 1148, which showed that the Egyptian strategy was an inevitable consequence of the crusaders' failure to establish themselves inland. It explains the critical shortage of land within the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem. It also points out the significance of Egypt to Franks and establishment of a central policy objective that constituted an “institutional” strategic view for the bureaucracy of the Latin Kingdom of Jerusalem.

This research was carried out with children of the initial level of 3 years. It was based on the importance of including gamification in the teaching-learning process through a mobile application. The general objective of this research is to carry out an analysis of the impact of this educative strategy in the teaching-learning process of the human body, which was carried out in four sections and worked with two groups, one control and one experimental. It began with the application of a pre-test with the two groups to determine the mastery of knowledge that children had on this subject, being similar the results. After the intervention, a post-test was applied to the two groups. It was obtained as a result that the experimental group obtained a better academic performance, concluding that when working with a technological tool as part of an educative strategy, the learning process is significant.

Full textAbstract:
"Individual metacognitions are responsible for monitoring and controlling our knowledge, emotions and actions, while social metacognitions are included in the process of monitoring and controlling each other’s knowledge, emotions and actions by group members. The distribution of metacognitive responsibilities among group members increases the visibility of individual metacognitive abilities. The study aimed to investigate the role of social metacognitions in the decision process of choosing current fashion trends: to compare how participants interact and social metacognitions influence their decisions in contradiction to the decisions made in individual work, where only individual metacognitions were available. The study consisted of several stages: starting from current trends analysis and follow up interviews, as well as, filling in individual journals. The last step was group work: discussion. The sample was 40 participants (M=24,35, Sd=2,27). Gathered data was processed through a descriptive qualitative analysis using the phenomenological method. Lack of knowledge or confidence to make a decision about which trends represent what is current in fashion in individual work, participants compensate with knowing about their own metacognition. Thus, in teamwork, these individuals’ level out limitations on knowledge or confidence by choosing the behaviour that can increase their knowledge. Choice of the behaviour strategy relies on individual metacognition. Therefore, teamwork provides individuals with additional resources as other team members, which increases the overall significance of work due to the contribution of individual metacognition. Social metacognitions help to distribute responsibilities among group members according to individual metacognitions. In group work, the visibility of individual metacognitions increases and favourably affects learning between participants, facilitates interaction and improves cognitive processes. Due to social metacognitions, participants who lack knowledge or confidence to make an individual decision solve their difficulties in a social situation, where limitations of individual metacognition are mitigated with social metacognitions."

This paper presents a non-traditional strategy of group formation that engages students in utilizing prior learned knowledge to solve problems at a collaborative learning classroom. Through the grouping process students communicate mathematical thinking with their peers and physically moving around to find their matching cards and group parteners. The grouping process warms up students to launch an active learning mode. Although the grouping method was implemented in the mathematics content course for preservice elementary teachers and the capstone course for preservice secondary mathematics teachers, it could perfectly fit different types of classrooms including grades K-12 or college level.

Full textAbstract:
Abstract AP-913 (Equipment Reliability Process Description) describes an equipment reliability process offered to assist member utilities to maintain high levels of safe and reliable plant operation in an efficient manner. This document based on AP-913 process document, this paper generally describes its determination by logic and analysis method. Combining with the types of failure and consequences in the actual problems, it created a more simplified maintenance strategy optimization mind maps (including the system stability, the design necessity, the economic efficiency, the equipment reliability four factors, refining the equipment and benefit related factors, its relationship and influence between the four are clarified), that can raise efficiency of maintenance and enhance the stability of the system. Through its application in the maintenance cases, it takes some cases for example: Increase the PM project of replacing the power board card of the transformer group, shorten the PM project cycle of the transformer group power transmitter, and change the control operation mode of the main transformer cooler;cancel the design of outdated manual working frequency excitation equipment and its PM items, cancellation of electric disk cabinet timer, etc. It is proved that the reliability of the equipment is improved after the implement of the maintenance strategy optimization. Time costs and labor costs are saved, and the cost of equipment procurement is decreased too. Responding to control the company’s cost positively, some ideas at the same time also can provide reference for other similar plant maintenance work.

Full textAbstract:
Most researches on process planning optimized machining process routings and cutting parameters independently and ignored their comprehensive effects on carbon reduction. In order to further reduce carbon emissions in manufacturing processes, an optimization model of cutting parameters and machining process routings is proposed to minimize total carbon emissions and total processing time of all processes. Carbon emissions include those caused by energy consumptions of machines in cutting state, material consumption of cutting tools and cutting fluid in all processes. As the optimization of cutting parameters is a continuous optimization problem, but the optimization of machining process routings including machining methods, process sequences, machine allocating and cutter selecting are discrete optimization problems, the whole optimization of process planning is divided into two parts. One is continuous optimization of cutting parameters. Another is discrete optimization of machining process routings. A hybrid optimization strategy of bird swarm algorithm (BSA) and NSGA-II algorithm is proposed to optimize the proposed model. Cutting parameters are optimized using BSA aiming at minimizing carbon emissions and machining time of each process. Machining process routings are optimized using NSGA-II under each optimized group of cutting parameters from the Pareto set. Four kinds of mutation operators in NSGA-II are designed for the discrete optimization of machining process routings. A workpiece with six machining features to be machined in a workshop with two CNC lathes, two CNC milling machines and two drilling machines is taken as a case study. The validity of the proposed model and hybrid strategy is verified by computational and analytical results. Several conclusions are yielded.

Full textAbstract:
The international scientific community researching the supercritical carbon dioxide power cycle has already developed the first turbomachinery designs, which are currently operating in reference laboratories worldwide. Nevertheless, the performance of this equipment is still quite far from the target values yielding fairly disappointing system efficiencies (65% vs. 80% total to total efficiency for radial compressors). In the light of these past results, the thermal Power Group (GMTS) at the University of Seville, Spain, has been researching the SCO2 cycle during the last few years. Hence, after researching elementary diffusion processes and some basic features of the system, the authors are now in the process of developing guidelines for compressor design based on one-dimensional codes developed in-house and CFD analysis. The results stemming from both approaches are presented in this paper showing that the rather simple 1D model is able to produce a fairly good model which can then be tuned with a more complex and computationally expensive 3D CFD code. The entire approach is presented in this paper, from the initial reference value for the key design parameters through the 1D code and to the multi-dimensional tool. The results of the two latter approaches are compared in detail in this paper.

Full textAbstract:
Background: In the last 10 months, amid the Covid-19 pandemic, several studies have demonstrated the viability of health education and virtual support strategies for caregivers of dementia patients to provide home care. Low and middle-income countries in particular, have sought to use these approaches to reduce the daily burden of caregivers, through virtual meetings providing education and support. Objectives: To present the feasibility of a pilot study on the use of a care support action under the CAAD Project - indirect costs of dementia – run by the HC-FMUSP. Methods: An observational study of 93 caregivers invited to participate in virtual 1-hour meetings three times a week was conducted. Results: Of the 93 family members who took part, 42 answered the eight questions about the effectiveness of the action after 3 months. The rate of positive responses for program satisfaction was high, ranging from 86% to 100%. Conclusion: The study results of this simple intervention suggest the utility of the program for caregivers of dementia patients in primary care. The intervention can provide a better understanding of difficulties faced by caregivers in their daily care of dementia patients and daily management guidance on a case-by-case basis. The program also promoted the implementation of an education strategy on the importance of understanding and recognizing anatomical-physiological changes in the aging process and their implications for the invisible line between senescence and senility. This process empowers the caregiver to feel able to protect both the patient and themselves by preventing the emergence of common diseases in this age group. Further studies are needed to explore this non-pharmacological support approach.

Full textAbstract:
In full-knowledge multi-robot adversarial patrolling, a group of robots have to detect an adversary who knows the robots' strategy. The adversary can easily take advantage of any deterministic patrolling strategy, which necessitates the employment of a randomised strategy. While the Markov decision process has been the dominant methodology in computing the penetration detection probabilities, we apply enumerative combinatorics to characterise the penetration detection probabilities. It allows us to provide the closed formulae of these probabilities and facilitates characterising optimal random defence strategies. Comparing to iteratively updating the Markov transition matrices, our methods significantly reduces the time and space complexity of solving the problem. We use this method to tackle four penetration configurations.

In 2020, the University of Dundee initiated the development of an Open Research strategy. As part of this initiative, in February 2021 the University’s Library and Learning Centre together with Open Research Champions from the Schools of Health Sciences and Dentistry, formed an Open Research Working group. To build on the University’s open research policy and infrastructure, the purpose of the group was to facilitate ongoing research and development of best practice approaches for our interdisciplinary environment to make outputs, data and other products of our research publicly available, building on University of Dundee’s Open Research policy and infrastructure. Through informal consultations with academic staff and students, the Open Research Working Group found that: → access and reach of research findings can be amplified through effective knowledge mobilisation, and stakeholder and patient and public involvement; and → there was a need for guidance and resources on how-to implement knowledge mobilisation activities with and for stakeholders throughout the entire research process – from proposal development to project completion. In June 2021, the Open Research working group, in partnership with Simon Fraser University’s Knowledge Mobilization Hub began the development of an Integrated Knowledge Translation (IKT) Toolkit, with funding support from the University of Dundee’s Doctoral Academy and Organisational Professional Development. IKT is an approach to knowledge translation that emphasises working in an engaged and collaborative partnership with stakeholders throughout the research cycle in order to have positive impact. The aim was to co-produce evidence-informed, best practice learning materials on how-to: → maintain ongoing relationships between researchers, community stakeholders and decision-makers in research development and implementation; and → facilitate an integrated, participatory way of knowledge production whereby researchers, practitioners and other knowledge users can collaborate to co-generate new and accessible knowledge that can be utilised in contexts ranging from supporting community development to policy guidance for practice. The IKT Toolkit was informed by a focused evidence review and synthesis of published peer-reviewed and grey literature and consists of 8 knowledge briefs and a slide deck co-produced for use in any discipline or sector. Each knowledge brief provides practical guidance and resources to support an IKT process in each of eight key research stages: (i) Partnership Building; (ii) Generating Priorities and Ideas; (iii) Proposal development; (iv) Study Design; (v) Data Collection; (vi) Data Analysis; (vii) Reporting and (viii) Dissemination.

Through informal consultations with academic staff and students, the Open Research Working Group found that: → access and reach of research findings can be amplified through effective knowledge mobilisation, and stakeholder and patient and public involvement; and → there was a need for guidance and resources on how-to implement knowledge mobilisation activities with and for stakeholders throughout the entire research process – from proposal development to project completion. In June 2021, the Open Research working group, in partnership with Simon Fraser University’s Knowledge Mobilization Hub began the development of an Integrated Knowledge Translation (IKT) Toolkit, with funding support from the University of Dundee’s Doctoral Academy and Organisational Professional Development. IKT is an approach to knowledge translation that emphasises working in an engaged and collaborative partnership with stakeholders throughout the research cycle in order to have positive impact. The aim was to co-produce evidence-informed, best practice learning materials on how-to: → maintain ongoing relationships between researchers, community stakeholders and decision-makers in research development and implementation; and → facilitate an integrated, participatory way of knowledge production whereby researchers, practitioners and other knowledge users can collaborate to co-generate new and accessible knowledge that can be utilised in contexts ranging from supporting community development to policy guidance for practice. The IKT Toolkit was informed by a focused evidence review and synthesis of published peerreviewed and grey literature and consists of 8 knowledge briefs and a slide deck co-produced for use in any discipline or sector. Each knowledge brief provides practical guidance and resources to support an IKT process in each of eight key research stages: (i) Partnership Building; (ii) Generating Priorities and Ideas; (iii) Proposal development; (iv) Study Design; (v) Data Collection; (vi) Data Analysis; (vii) Reporting and (viii) Dissemination. The current knowledge brief provides IKT guidance on Research Stage 5: Data Collection.

Full textAbstract:
The problem of determining the investment priorities of the national economy development has been actuated. It has been argued that the formation of institutional preferences for activation of industry investment processes should be carried out taking into account the potential ability of each sectoral group enterprises to increase the added value. The scientific and methodical approach for sub-sectors investment attractiveness assessment has been formed on the example of the Ukrainian food industry. It has been recommended to use for this substantiated set of relative performance indexes which are duplicated in aggregate statistical state surveys based on the enterprise’s financial statements. It has been formed the recommendations for the investment priorities of food industry development in Ukraine which are based on the appropriate calculations made by the TOPSIS and CRITIC methods. Methods of economic-statistical and comparative analysis were used for structural and dynamic characteristics of the Ukraine industrial enterprises activities. Given that innovation processes should also cover small and medium-sized industrial enterprises, whose resource opportunities are mostly limited, it is proposed to expand them within the framework of a strategic partnership. Graphic modeling methods have been used to visualize the process of building the business structures resource potential on the basis of their strategic partnership. The influence of the motivational environment on the value of organizational relations within the partnership has been formalized.

Do, Thao, and Eric Kasper. The Impact of Covid-19 Response Policies on Select Vulnerable Groups in Vietnam. Institute of Development Studies, May 2022. http://dx.doi.org/10.19088/ids.2022.038.
Full textAbstract:
Despite the significant impact of the pandemic’s fourth wave, Vietnam’s overall strategy was seen as well planned with one of the lowest infection rates globally in 2020–2021. In June 2019, an estimated 540,000 Vietnamese migrant workers were recorded working legally in 40 countries and territories, making Vietnam a major labour exporter and one of the top ten countries to receive international remittances. Our research shows how Vietnam’s Covid-19 policy response has influenced Vietnamese migrant workers and counter-trafficking work, particularly in border areas. The research discussed four main findings. Firstly, border closures left many overseas migrant workers vulnerable and led them to rely on people smugglers. Secondly, the suspension of commercial international flights and a lack of transparency and favouritism in allocating seats on repatriation flights left many stranded. Thirdly, the national pandemic response plan suffered from limitations. Lastly, Covid-19 policies have led to new trafficking trends and challenges. Based on this evidence, the research suggests that digitalising and modernising social services could strengthen the inclusion of vulnerable groups, simplify the administrative and management process, save costs, and reduce corruption. Participation of vulnerable groups, especially ethnic minorities and overseas migrant workers, including fishers, should be ensured in national policy design and local implementation. Additionally, improving transparency and accountability of support systems could help gain citizens’ trust in the government, which would be beneficial for future crisis responses.
