Resumen
Abstract Context.—Digital technology is commonly used for documentation of specimens in anatomic pathology and has been mainly limited to still photographs. Technologic innovations, such as digital video, provide additional, in some cases better, options for documentation. Objective.—To demonstrate the applicability of digital video to the documentation of surgical specimens. Design.—A Canon Elura MC40 digital camcorder was used, and the unedited movies were transferred to a Macintosh PowerBook G4 computer. Both the camcorder and specimens were hand-held during filming. The movies were edited using the software iMovie. Annotations and histologic photographs may be easily incorporated into movies when editing, if desired. Results.—The finished movies are best viewed in computers which contain the free program QuickTime Player. Movies may also be incorporated onto DVDs, for viewing in standard DVD players or appropriately equipped computers. The final movies are on average 2 minutes in duration, with a file size between 2 and 400 megabytes, depending on the intended use. Because of file size, distribution is more practical via CD or DVD, but movies may be compressed for distribution through the Internet (e-mail, Web sites) or through internal hospital networks. Conclusions.—Digital video is a practical, easy, and affordable methodology for specimen documentation, permitting a better 3-dimensional understanding of the specimens. Discussions with colleagues, student education, presentation at conferences, and other educational activities can be enhanced with the implementation of digital video technology.

Resumen
263 Background: Barriers to safe delivery of oral chemotherapy in a safety net hospital population include lack of health insurance, delays in medication delivery, and language barriers. Baseline chart review at the Lyndon B. Johnson Hospital oncology clinic revealed sparse documentation of oral chemotherapy education and compliance. Our team conducted the present quality improvement project to improve documentation of toxicity assessment, patient education, and compliance with the oral chemotherapy agents capecitabine, palbociclib, and sorafenib by 25% from October through December 2020. Methods: A set of standardized questions designed to assess for the above domains were generated in the form of an auto-populated electronic medical record phrase ("dot phrase," see Figure 1). Using weekly timed email notifications, physicians were reminded to incorporate these questions in their documentation during clinic visits. Chart review was performed to assess usage frequency of the dot phrase. A post-intervention survey was administered to assess providers' experience with use of the dot phrase, and assess barriers to consistent documentation. Results: 41 patients over 3 months were identified as taking the oral chemotherapy drugs capecitabine (68%), palbociclib (29%) or sorafenib (3%). 63% were non-English speakers. 49% had breast cancer, 39% GI cancers, and 12% other cancers. 12% of clinic visits correctly incorporated use of the dot phrase. Education on the dosing and schedule for oral chemo was addressed for 48% of patients, documentation of adverse effects was performed for 34% of patients, and assessment of medication adherence was documented for 22% of patients. While 73% of providers felt that documentation of oral chemotherapy compliance is important, 70% cited failure to remember to incorporate the dot phrase in real time as the primary reason for failure to use the dot phrase for oral chemotherapy documentation. Conclusions: Despite providers' view of documentation of oral chemotherapy toxicities and compliance as important, low uptake of the dot phrase was observed. The main barrier to use of the dot phrase was providers' forgetting to incorporate the dot phrase prior to and during their clinic charting. Future efforts should focus on automated reminders and regular assessments to increase compliance to this important quality domain. [Table: see text]

Resumen
This paper describes an innovative Screening Assessment Form developed at the Ottawa Civic Hospital. The development of the form was prompted by the need for a concise, time efficient guide that could be easily applied to a culturally diverse clientele presenting with various bio-psychosocial difficulties. The department had adopted the Model of Human Occupation as its frame of reference, however it was difficult to consistently covey the structure of the model in report writing. The challenge was to create an assessment tool which incorporated not only essential clinical information but also occupational therapy's unique holistic perspective of function.

Aims and Method The aim of the study was to assess the practicality of extracting past risk-related information from case records and to assess how this process might be cost-effectively incorporated in routine practice. Case records of 43 patients referred to the Care Programme Approach in Dundee were examined. Results Our study yielded relevant information – 39% of patients had a history of violence, 58% of self-harm or suicide, 58% of severe self-neglect and 72% of non-compliance with medication. However, it took an average of 5 hours to conduct a thorough review of each case because the notes were bulky and poorly organised. Clinical Implications Retrospective review of conventional case records in routine practice is likely to be incomplete and misleading. Prospective recording should be practicable if used selectively, but requires a standardised approach to clinical recording and case note maintenance. The risk recording system we developed, incorporating a dated index of incidents by risk category, followed by brief summaries of each incident, provides key clinical information not available from a simple check list while not sacrificing brevity.

Resumen
Objectives: Access to early palliative care (EPC) for all patients with metastatic lung cancer is yet to be achieved in spite of recommendations. This quality improvement (QI) project was initialized to improve the rates of such referrals from the thoracic oncology clinic for all new outpatients in a premier cancer center in India. Materials and Methods: Change in the proportion of patients receiving referrals for EPC during and after intervention (April–May 2018), compared to baseline (January–March 2018) were explored. Interventions included understanding of the process flow, identification of key drivers, and root cause analysis which identified the gaps as lack of documentation for EPC. Teaching and encouraging staff at the clinic to incorporate referrals into all initial visits for patients with metastatic lung cancer were incorporated. Results: The bundle of QI interventions increased referrals from an average of 50% to 75%, mean difference = 12.64 (standard deviation = 10.13) (95% confidence interval = 22.01–3.29), P = 0.016 (two-tailed) on paired sample test. Conclusion: Improved referral rates for EPC in a multidisciplinary cancer clinic is possible with a QI project. This project also identifies the importance of data documentation and patient information processes that can be targeted for improvement.

Resumen
Introduction High-quality forensic documentation can improve justice outcomes for survivors of sexual and gender-based violence, but there are limited tools to assess documentation data quality. This study aimed to develop and validate a data quality assessment index to objectively assess clinician documentation across the 26 key elements of the standardized forensic evidence forms used in Kenya. Methods Informed by prior quality assessment tools, an initial draft of the index was developed. Feedback from Kenya- and U.S.-based clinicians and human rights experts was solicited and incorporated into the draft index in an iterative fashion. Two raters independently employed the finalized Physicians for Human Rights Data Quality Index to assess and score the quality of documentation across 31 clinician-completed forms. Inter-rater reliability was determined using Cohen kappa (к) coefficients. Results The Index was found to have substantial overall reliability. Of the 26 documentation items, the Index had a perfect (к = 1.0) and almost perfect (к = 0.81–0.99) level of inter-rater agreement across 17 (65.4%) and 5 (19.2%) items, respectively. On a low-to-high documentation quality scale of 0 to 2, the majority of items (n = 19, 73.1%) had a mean documentation quality score >1.5–2. Conclusion Quality assurance of forensic documentation is an essential component of post-sexual assault care. To our knowledge, this is the first validated quality-assessment tool in the peer-reviewed literature for sexual assault documentation and may be a promising strategy to enhance the quality of sexual assault documentation in other settings, locally, regionally, and internationally.

Resumen
AbstractThe logistics of time-efficient yet accurate documentation of archaeological features are a challenge within the context of pedestrian survey. Here we present results of two case studies documenting the use of photogrammetry under field conditions within the Great Plains. Results demonstrate the ease with which high quality models can be obtained with minimal training and by using standard field cameras and computers. Different models of pit hearth and architectural features are presented to demonstrate the versatility of model output formats in terms of their accessibility to broad audiences and the variety of display options available. Comparison with more traditional field measurements indicates the suitability and superiority of this approach in terms of time investment and mapping detail and accuracy. Combined, these efforts demonstrate the potential of this technique to be incorporated into the standard practices of academic and professional field projects with minimal interruption.

Resumen
Federal planning regulations issued in 1993 require major investment studies (MISs) to help metropolitan planning organizations reach decisions on high-cost, high-impact highway and transit facilities. The regulations offer two options for the development of National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) documents for major investments. In Option 1, draft and final NEPA documents are prepared during the project development/ preliminary engineering phase for any projects that emerge from an MIS and have been incorporated into the region’s long-range plan. In Option 2, a draft NEPA document is prepared as part of the MIS. Although there is general appreciation and understanding of the planning principles underlying the MIS process, the role of environmental impact analysis and documentation has been a source of confusion, misunderstanding, and skepticism. An attempt is made to clear up this confusion by explaining Option 1, Option 2, and the more recently conceived Option 1½ and by presenting situations and circumstances in which each option might be most advantageous. Also presented is the federal “vision” that led to the development of the MIS process, the nature of MIS alternatives is highlighted, suggestions for establishing the appropriate level of detail are offered, and a distinction is made between NEPA principles and documentation requirements.

Resumen
The main graphical modes of information presentation, used in technical illustrations to show hidden detail, are identified and some historical precedents for them in the work of Leonardo Da Vinci are reviewed. Research into one particular aspect of graphic representation used in technical illustrations is reported. This concerns the deployment in hand-drawn images of different line thicknesses and their contribution to enhancing the interpretation of what is depicted. Whilst the use of varying line thicknesses has been formally incorporated into some documentation standards, it is not always observed in relevant domains. The case for and the process of replicating this line thickness code in computer-generated imagery, for use in multimedia technical documentation, are introduced.

Resumen
The African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights (ACHPR) is the principle regional human rights treaty for the African continent. Adopted in 1981, there is now a significant body of jurisprudence and interpretation by its African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights and the recently established African Court. This volume provides a comprehensive article-by-article legal analysis of the provisions of the Charter as it draws upon the documents adopted by the African Commission, including resolutions, case law, and concluding observations. Where relevant, case law adopted by the African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights, and that of other sub-regional courts and tribunals and domestic courts in Africa, are also incorporated. The book examines not only the substantive rights in the African Charter but also the work of the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights and provides a full examination of its mandate. A critical analysis of each of the provisions of the ACHPR is led principally by the jurisprudence and documentation of the African Commission and African Court. The text also identifies the overall development of the ACHPR within the broader regional and international human rights legal arena.

Resumen
The research aimed at bringing new data to the study of inequality in the distribution of wealth in the long run using the fiscal documentation available to many communities of the Marches region over a period covering the late Middle Ages and the full modern age. The political-administrative history of this territory, progressively incorporated into the Papal State, was reflected in an evolution of the methodologies for assessing wealth for tax purposes. Their characteristics have been carefully taken into account and criticized in order to ensure compatibility in time and space. Land registers, “estimi”, "libre", as well as books of “collette”, will be used to describe the fiscal capacity of taxpayers enrolled in these registers and to estimate the dynamics of economic inequality.

Resumen
Abstract Documentation of tonal systems cross-linguistically increasingly addresses the role that tone may play in morphological systems: What are possible morphosyntactic triggers of tone? And what are ways in which tone can be autonomously morphological? The empirical base available to answer these questions is, however, narrow given that the state of tonal documentation is still poor in many areas of the world. This chapter addresses the challenges of characterizing the tonal system of Choguita Rarámuri (CR) (Uto-Aztecan; Mexico) within the context of a documentation-based reference grammar of the language. This chapter discusses: (i) the role that tone serves in the morphological organization of CR; (ii) challenges of characterizing this system within the context of a reference grammar; and (iii) how synchronic variation in tonal realization is incorporated in the grammatical description of CR and its implications for assessing change in progress in the language.

Resumen
Abstract This chapter posits that images are not merely discoverable, they are in fact created by interested parties. The proliferation of smartphones has resulted in the recording of images by a broad array of photographers, some of whom strive to be objective documentarians, while others actively engage in misinformation and disinformation campaigns. All photographers make choices of what to include and exclude in their memorialization, thus influencing the truth they present to others. Bearing witness through photography is impacted by motivational and cognitive biases which can skew the images presented for consideration. Even body worn cameras allow for skewed visual documentation of a recorded event. This chapter examines the selectivity that is involved in the recording and editing of images and their submission for consideration by investigators. It also explores the impact of agendas and biases of counsel when determining what image-based evidence will be incorporated into the trial narrative.

Resumen
Abstract This chapter follows the evolution of Paquita on the St. Petersburg Imperial Ballet stage from its 1847 premiere to its 1881 revival by Marius Petipa, with musical contributions by Ludwig Minkus, to its documentation in the Stepanov choreographic notation system by Nikolai Sergeyev circa 1904–1905. Petipa’s exposure to the works of original Paquita choreographer Joseph Mazilier is chronicled and his love of Spanish dance and the ways in which he incorporated Spanish dance vocabulary into his choreography are explored. A description of source material leads to detailed account of the choreography, mime, and action of the St. Petersburg Paquita based on Sergeyev’s notations and an Imperial-era répétiteur that include the ballet’s celebrated children’s mazurka and Grand pas. Though these dances have endured, the complete Paquita is the lone work among the five ballets under discussion in this volume that did not establish itself in the modern classical repertory.

Resumen
Precision farming that takes advantage of the internet of things infrastructure now includes weed identification as a core component. Weeds now account for 45 percent of crop losses in farming because of competition with crops. This figure can be lowered with effective weed detecting technology. One of the most important areas of AI, known as deep learning (DL), is revolutionizing weed discovery for site-specific weed management (SSWM). In the past half a decade, DL methods have been used with both ground- and air-based technology for weed documentation in still images and in real time. According to the latest findings in DL-based weed detection, developing methods that aid precision weeding technologies in making informed decisions is a priority. Over the past five years, deep learning algorithms have been successfully incorporated into both ground-based and aerial-based systems for the purpose of weed identification in both still picture and real-time scenarios.

Resumen
Medical laboratory services have a critical role as an integral component of patient care. The accreditation standard of ISO 15189, a guidance document, provides validation that a laboratory is competent to deliver accurate and reliable test results. This international standard has been evolving since 2003. Following the second publication (2007), the standard was released as a revised and updated version in 2012 (Medical laboratories – Requirements for quality and competence). The text of ISO 15189:2012 has been approved as EN ISO15189:2012. European Union members and associate countries agreed to accord it the status of a national standard by May 2013. Any conflicting national standards need to be withdrawn by November 2015 at the latest. The purpose of this chapter is to mark the differences between the two versions of the standards and to highlight the changes and additions that have been incorporated into ISO 15189:2012. A practical approach will be helpful for laboratories to make a smooth transition to the updated standard when revising their quality and technical documentation to meet the new requirements.

Resumen
On 14 April 2003 the sensational discovery of a series of undoubtedly Palaeolithic figures in Church Hole Cave, Creswell Crags, certainly constituted a milestone in prehistoric investigations in the United Kingdom. For various reasons, the discovery team, comprising Sergio Ripoll, Paul G. Bahn, and Paul B. Pettitt was not able to reconvene to continue the work until the end of June. At that time we incorporated Francisco J.Muñoz into the team to help us in the work of documentation and prospection. At the time of writing, we have carried out two systematic campaigns of documentation, the first in June/July 2003, and the second in March 2004. With the financial support of English Heritage, and the technical support of the Creswell Crags Interpretation Centre, we undertook the detailed examination of all the wall surfaces of the various caves in the complex of the River Meadow where it passes through Creswell Crags (Fig. 2.1; Pl. 10). In some of them, arrangements had been made for scaffolding to be installed to provide access to the highest parts of the caves, given the lowering of their floor levels over more than a century, either through more or less systematic excavations or to facilitate visits by tourists in the Victorian period. Since the most spectacular figure, discovered at the start, was in Church Hole (Pl. 11), we decided to begin our systematic prospecting in that cave—from its mouth, along the left wall to the interior, as far as the far end over 75 metres depth, and then back again towards the exterior along the right wall. During the systematic campaign of documentation of spring 2004 we discovered new figures which have potentially increased, in our opinion, the iconographic corpus of British Palaeolithic rock art to fifty-six figures in Church Hole, one in Robin Hood Cave, and one in Mother Grundy’s Parlour. Our work centred on Church Hole Cave, making the most of the scaffolding installed for that purpose. The methodology of the study was that which we routinely employ in various caves; as mentioned above, taking a detailed look from the entrance to the back along the left wall, and then returning to the exterior along the right wall.

Resumen
A sequence of key management principles are incorporated in the Norwegian Nature Diversity Act and the Norwegian version of the EU Water Frame-work Directive as complementary regulations to ensure sustainable use of rivers and lakes modified e.g., for hydropower regulations. Relevant knowledge about ecological conditions and possible cumulative impacts from multiple stressors, adaptive management, and pressure-pays principles are essential components in ecosystem-based management. In order to reach these objectives, best available mitigation measures for all rivers and lakes need to be implemented and regularly updated and revised in the river basin management plans, in line with EEA-relevant frameworks and regulations. Updated knowledge about environmental effects and documentation of the ecological mitigation effects from measures are essential. Several Norwegian hydropower schemes have included many emerging best-mitigation measures. We also exemplify, however, that several recent revisions of hydropower licenses lack key measures to meet the expectations for best practise, in particular related to ecological continuum. In most cases we have evaluated, the main focus has normally been on ecological mitigations of downstream impacts from hydropower operation, while upstream impacts, e.g., with lack of ecological flow, seem to be the case in many bypassed rivers.

Resumen
Computer-aided manufacturing (CAM) software is used to develop a process plan, which consists of an operations list, tool paths, tooling, process parameters, and depending on the system, material handling operations. Upon completing the development of a process plan, setup sheets are generated for the personnel involved in the setup, production, testing, and product validation activities for a product. Typically, this documentation is in a hardcopy format, or is a static electronic document, and the direction of the communication is unidirectional — from the process planner to the support personnel. With the ubiquitous communications tools available to individuals today, a more sophisticated approach should be taken to transmit, store, and communicate changes to and from the shop floor. Presently, standard setup documentation consists of the project information utilized for the developed process plan. Pictures such as screen captures of the tool path, virtual verification images, and physical elements such as specialty tools may be included. However, modifications are made continuously to improve the cycle time, quality, or to adjust for other product or process changes. This research focuses on the development of interactive setup sheets that utilize existing desktop CAD/CAM software and mobile technologies, with the potential for leveraging the advantages of manufacturing cloud computing. Videos, links to additional documentation, and the ability to edit a subset of process parameters such as a tool diameter are incorporated. The operator is able to physically change tools or other key process setup information, and then send the information to the CAM system in order to regenerate the updated tool paths and documentation. Complementing the flexible, agile, and reconfigurable paradigms is the communication flexibility provided by fast wireless networks along with, cloud computing resources that can accessed with mobile devices, which are ubiquitous in today’s society. This technology that has not yet been heavily employed in the manufacturing environment, and research leveraging these new tools need to be explored.

Resumen
This paper presents a tool for surface loading stress analysis that was developed in-house by TransCanada (TCPL). This tool utilizes fundamentals of the surface loading assessment method developed by Kiefner & Associates Inc. (KAI) for Canadian Energy Pipeline Association (CEPA), but incorporated many advanced functionalities to improve the accuracy, efficiency and transparency of the analysis. The new functions of the tool include the batch analysis, multiple angle analysis, generic/site-specific loading analysis, graphical display of stress distributions for refined assessment, user-defined impact factor and automated reporting for documentation of surface loading calculations. This tool also incorporated the improved numerical algorithm for longitudinal global bending stress considering the actual live load pressure distribution over a certain length of pipeline. The accuracy of the developed tool was validated by comparing it to the KAI tool. The improved algorithm for longitudinal global bending stress calculation reduces the conservatism of the longitudinal global bending stress compared to the original simplified method but does not sacrifice safety, which has been demonstrated by comparison with the experimental results. The new functionalities improved the business efficiency and maintains safety and regulatory compliance.

Resumen
Continually increasing requirements on nowadays full scope PSA L1 and L2 as whole, which is multiplied by importance of specific data for all modes of operation of nuclear power plant, highlight role of input data used in PSA quantification process. This fact also emphasizes the role of capability to process all necessary information to analyze all nuclear plant modes by appropriate way. Even if abovementioned aspects are relevant for all parts of nowadays PSAs, their importance is critical for internal hazards including specific fire analysis. Because internal fire analysis forms one of the most challenging PSA tasks, requiring interdisciplinary work including processing and integration of extensive amount of data in such a way that fire analysis results are fully consistent with internal PSA events and can be directly incorporated into PSA project. Application of tailored information system forms one of the ways to speed up analyzing process, enhances manageability and maintainability of particular PSA projects and provides effective reporting mean to document process of work as well as traceable and human readable documentation for customers. Such information system also allows implementing rapid changes in processing input data and reduces the risk of human error. Usage of information systems for modification of input data for Living PSA is invaluable. Transparent highly automatized processing of input data allows the analyst to obtain more accurate and better insight to evaluate aspects of particular fire and its consequences. This paper provides brief overview of VUJE approach and experience in this area. The paper introduces general purpose of database developed for PSA needs containing data for relevant PSA structure system and components as well as information relevant for flood and fire analyses. Paper explains as this basic data source is enhanced by adding several relatively independent tiers to employ all common data for fire PSA purpose. Paper also briefly introduces capability of such system to generate integrated documentation covering all stages of fire analyses, covering all screening stages of fire analysis as well as future plans to enhance this part of work in such a way to be capable to build automatic interface between PSA model and fire database to enable PSA model parameters automatic updating and expansion of fires in combinations of initiating events (for example Fire and seismic event).

Resumen
VERLIFE – “Unified Procedure for Lifetime Assessment of Components and Piping in WWER NPPs during Operation” was initiated and co-ordinated by the Czech and was developed within the 5th Framework Program of the European Union in 2003 and later upgraded within the 6th Framework Program “COVERS – Safety of WWER NPPs” of the European Union in 2008. This Procedure had to fill the gap in original Soviet/Russian Codes and Rules for Nuclear Power Plants (NPPs) with WWER (Water-Water-Energetic-Reactor = PWR type) type reactors, as those codes were developed only for design and manufacture and were not changed since their second edition in 1989. VERLIFE Procedure is based on these Russian codes but incorporates also new developments in research, mainly in fracture mechanics, and also some principal approaches used in PWR codes. Last upgrading and principal extending of this VERLIFE Procedure was realized within the 3-years IAEA project (in close co-operation with another project of the 6th Framework Program of the European Union “NULIFE – Plant Life Management of NPPs”) that started in 2009 with final approval and editing in 2013. As all versions of the VERLIFE procedure were coordinated by the Czech and first version was based on the Czech version of the NTD ASI, there have been simultaneously incorporated into the Czech NTD ASI (Normative Technical Documentation of the Czech Association of Mechanical Engineers) guidelines that are accepted by the Czech State Office for Nuclear Safety for the use in evaluation of Czech NPPs. This document has several parts: Section IV – “Evaluation of Residual Lifetime of Components and Piping in WWER type NPPs” deals with the evaluation during NPP operation. Main part of the document is divided into four main parts: - Evaluation of resistance of components and piping against non-ductile failure - Evaluation of resistance of component and piping against fatigue damage, - Evaluation of resistance of components and piping against corrosion-mechanical damage - Evaluation of residual lifetime of components and piping with defects found during in-service inspections Additionally, several appendices are included for detailed description of individual parts of evaluation, e.g. - Determination of neutron fluences in reactor pressure vessel and internals - Determination of degradation of materials during operation - Requirements for evaluation of pressurized thermal shock regimes - Evaluation of corrosion-errosion effects in piping - Environmental fatigue evaluation - Evaluation of reactor pressure vessel failure probability Finally, the following appendices dealing with components integrity have been included: - Lifetime of reactor pressure vessel internals - Leak-before-break concept for WWER piping - No-break-zone for WWER piping The paper will describe structure and main principles of this Section IV.

Resumen
Aim/Purpose. This study aims to document the results of Student Ownership of Learning through the development of a software application to support dementia patients. The research strives to create an agile career-like experience connected to software development courses to overall improve the learning outcome for students. Background. Most online classes are limited to lectures, homework, and tests. However, students struggle to evolve with passive instruction as well as no hands-on experience. In addition to that the students do not gain experience directed toward their professions and are not familiar with the requirements during a software development process. The researchers of this study believe that Student Ownership of Learning (SOL) and Scrum can be the basis of a hands-on learning experience where the student is able to take an active approach to their own learning. The study identified the increase in dementia patients and the lack of interactive software applications in health care as an area where research and development were needed. The software application was created to address dementia patients’ needs for meaningful interaction and improvement of memory. The student is able to take leadership of their own learning while working on developing their own project while having guidance from the instructor. Methodology. In this research, the student and professor worked together as a team to experience Student Ownership of Learning that incorporated Scrum-like practices. The student was able to seek guidance from the professor throughout the process and was able to receive feedback in weekly meetings. The student documented their weekly finding and set goals for each week. This helped the student to follow Scrum-like practices where a complex project can be split into multiple smaller units and tackled individually. The Scrum sprint helped the student to set goals for each development cycle and to prioritize certain tasks. The student experiences how to successfully manage time to complete a complex project on a defined end date. Each iteration allowed the student to develop further by doing research, speaking to experts, and having weekly instructor-student meetings. The Scrum process generally allows constant review, and the student is able to access the documentation from the earlier iterations. Contribution. This study showcases the student’s successful learning outcomes connected to Student Ownership of Learning as well as Scrum by providing documentation of the processes, concerns, and successes. Findings This study connected student learning to a professional experience that is closely tied to Student Ownership of Learning and Scrum. The student identified the importance of improving the situation of dementia patients through software development. Generally, the student noted that by working on a chosen topic of interest their motivation and programming skillset increased at a greater rate than in a normal classroom setting. Recommendations for Practitioners. The researchers of this study recommend practitioners consider providing an experience of Student Ownership of Learning connected to Scum. Faculty members in technical fields are welcome to share the findings presented in this research as they experience a student’s perspective throughout this process. Recommendations for Researchers . Researchers are invited to experience how Student Ownership of Learning and Scrum practices might change learning outcomes in technical courses. Researchers could experience increasing learner independence and motivation to further develop students’ programming skill sets. Impact on Society. This study showcases how Student Ownership of Learning and Scrum practices can deliver a new form of higher education with hands-on involvement with more successful outcomes. In addition, this study wants to raise awareness for dementia patients and the troubles they are facing by developing an interactive dementia-focused software application. Future Research. Future research could combine Student Ownership of Learning and Scrum methods in higher education settings to provide a more professional experience for students. The study of dementia-related software applications in health care can be expanded and further explored.

Texto completo
Resumen
The role of Nirex is to provide the UK with safe, environmentally sound and publicly acceptable options for the long-term management of radioactive materials. This will include all intermediate-level waste and some low-level waste (ILW and LLW). Nirex has developed a Phased Disposal Concept based on conditioning the wastes then isolating them deep underground. Based on this phased disposal concept, Nirex advises waste producers on the conditioning and packaging of radioactive waste. The ILW and LLW which comprise the ‘reference volume’ of the Phased Disposal Concept contain approximately 5 t Pu-239 and 28 t U-235. Nirex’s work is based on a number of standards for safety and environmental protection set by the Government. Three different Regulators ensure application of these standards in the transport, operation and post-closure phases. Therefore a coherent approach to criticality safety is required. The approach to criticality safety begins by avoiding criticality resulting from the way in which the waste is packaged, by controlling the package design including the level of fissile material. The concept safety assessments will support a screening level of approximately 5 g Pu-239 equivalent. In specific cases where waste producers indicate that their proposed packages will not comply with the screening level, package-specific criticality safety assessments can be incorporated into the concept through the change control process. Engineering measures are available to prevent criticality for such time as the waste packaging affords a high level of containment. In the long term, however, after deterioration of the physical containment provided by the waste packages, there would be the possibility of movement of fissile material out of the waste packages and subsequent accumulation into new configurations which could in principle lead to a criticality. It is conceivable that a criticality could adversely impact on the performance of a repository after closure because, for example, of the heat that would be produced affecting the engineered barriers. It is therefore necessary to consider the post-closure criticality safety of the repository concept. Nirex is currently undertaking a programme of work on ‘understanding criticality under repository conditions’. The aim of the programme is to obtain a better understanding of the processes that would control the nature and magnitude of a criticality under the particular conditions of the concept repository. An essential component of demonstrating criticality safety is to ensure waste packagers develop operating arrangements, and provide objective evidence in the form of criticality compliance assurance documentation, to demonstrate how fissile material will be controlled to meet levels defined in concept criticality safety assessments. This paper will describe the coherent approach and the processes by which it is applied.

"Developing a human-centered reference model for streamlining failure management in supply chains: An integrative approach to communication processes and recommender systems for SME". En AHFE 2023 Hawaii Edition. AHFE International, 2023. http://dx.doi.org/10.54941/ahfe1004311.

Resumen
The efficacy of a company's supply chain and its communication processes plays a pivotal role in determining its success. Reference models, which are essentially enterprise or information models with specific, reusable content, offer benefits such as expediting the modelling process, leveraging experiential knowledge, and boosting economic efficiency. Noteworthy among such models are the Supply Chain Operations Reference (SCOR) model, the damaged parts analysis process, and the 8D report, predominantly utilized to chronicle and assess communication discrepancies in supply chains. The SCOR model, applicable across diverse sectors, concentrates on five fundamental processes: Planning, Procurement, Production, Delivery, and Return. Despite its extensive functionalities, the SCOR is primarily employed for depicting processes rather than devising them. It offers limited direction in designing cooperative coordination processes and lacks a direct role in methodically addressing and resolving failures. The damaged parts analysis process, an initiative by the German Association of the Automotive Industry (VDA), offers collaborative solutions for supply chain issues. However, it doesn't deliver comprehensive guidelines or procedures for fostering cooperation and communication. On the other hand, the 8D method is a paramount problem-solving strategy in the automotive realm, focusing on streamlining complaint management and fostering effective communication with stakeholders. Alongside the 8D, methodologies like Six Sigma and the PDCA cycle can be incorporated into supply chains. Nevertheless, the adoption of these methodologies often proves resource-intensive for small and medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), leading to constrained defect data gathering and prolonged durations for defect detection and resolution. This predicament is exacerbated by many SMEs' absence of a systematic approach to failure documentation. The prevalence of manual or localised record-keeping among SMEs impedes the development of a consolidated, data-informed failure knowledge base. A potential remedy could be envisioned in a robust knowledge base at the heart of an automated recommender system. Such a system might offer timely failure detection, discern correlations, pinpoint causes, and recommend interventions. These advancements could be instrumental in curtailing failure-associated expenses and procuring a sustained competitive edge. Moreover, these innovations can pave the way for SMEs to attain a digital maturity crucial for their prospective competitiveness.The objective of this paper is the conceptualisation of a human-centered reference model tailored to simplify the management of supply chain failures. This model aspires to facilitate the transparent delineation, communication, and rectification of failures spanning the entire supply chain continuum. Implementation of the reference model, in tandem with recommendation assistants, can dramatically curtail the timespan required to detect and address supply chain failures.

Resumen
Abstract Through the project we built a solid professional foundation beyond the Graduate Development Program, implemented competence assurance vetted through internal & external accreditation, provided a structured and transparent development route for professional staff, provided employees with more flexibility in career growth and strengthened Petroleum Development Oman's (PDO) professional in-house capabilities. In addition, we will be able to report on overall competency levels across PDO's functions to better determine focus areas for capability development. This paper presents how a uniform Competency Framework was created across the company linked with development plans in 70:20:10 approach. In addition to the development of a structured, transparent, and auditable accreditation process and the creation of corporate competencies relevant to all roles such as HSE, leadership and continuous improvement competencies to ensure standardization across the entire organization. Furthermore, the paper will showcase the new integrated talent management process enabled by an IT solution (SAP-Success Factor) which integrates the following processes: Development & Assessment Competency Management, Coaching & Mentoring, Performance Management, High Potential Identification, Employee profile, and Succession Planning. Additionally, it will present the governance structure with an effective change management plan to ensure effective roll-out. The project resulted in a new competency framework for all functions linked to competency development plans; it also resulted in structured development and assessment processes. Automation paved the way for HR data analytics, and visualization and was key to ensuring compliance and sustainability. An effective change management process was incorporated from the beginning of the project. With the Technical Director as project sponsor, the project team obtained management steer through monthly steering committee meetings attended by Managing Director Committee (MDC) members. To ensure the project outcome would meet customer needs the team held more than 200 engagements with stakeholders over the last 2 years. We have built world-class documentation and audio-visual communication package to simplify the process of guiding employees, supervisors, and Corporate Functional Discipline Heads (CFDHs) in using the system. Within the first year of the project's launch, we had more than 60% of our employees start their self-assessments and development plans which indicates a positive adoption by the users. The SAP-Success Factors integrates all the talent management processes on one platform. Through the introduction of this world class IT system, an innovative competency development process was built that assures continuous development and gap closure, hardwired with different stakeholders' roles & responsibilities. Furthermore, an accreditation point system and external assessment was introduced for progression to senior roles to ensure consistency in professionalism across PDO.

Resumen
Misalignment is a common source of high vibration and malfunction in rotating machinery. Despite its importance and prevalence, no sufficient documentation exists treating this problem. In this paper, a method is introduced for modeling a continuous rotor system which incorporates a misaligned coupling element. It is assumed that both the angular and parallel misalignments are present in the coupling location. The energy expressions are derived and then, applying the Ritz series method, the equations of motion are constructed in matrix form. Because of the special characteristics of the system due to misalignment, a Harmonic Balance Method (HBM) is utilized to obtain the multi harmonic response to an unbalance excitation in disk location. A study on shaft center orbits is also provided and the effect of misalignment type and severity on the orbits is analyzed.

Resumen
Full information maximum likelihood (FIML) is an important approach to compensating for nonresponse in data analysis. Unfortunately, only a few software packages implement FIML and even fewer have the capability to compensate for missing not at random (MNAR) nonresponse. One of these packages is Statistical Innovations’ Latent GOLD; however, the user documentation for Latent GOLD provides no mention of this capability. The purpose of this paper is to provide guidance for fitting MNAR FIML models for categorical data items using the Latent GOLD 5.0 software. By way of comparison, we also provide guidance on fitting FIML models for nonresponse missing at random (MAR) using the methods of Fuchs (1982) and Fay (1986), who incorporated item nonresponse indicators within a structural modeling framework. We compare both FIML for MAR and FIML for MNAR nonresponse models for independent and dependent variables. Also, we provide recommendations for future applications of FIML using Latent GOLD.

Resumen
Background Diabetes mellitus (DM) and depression are important comorbid conditions that can lead to more serious health outcomes. The American Diabetes Association (ADA) supports routine screening for depression as part of standard diabetes management. The PHQ2 and PHQ9 questionnaires are good diagnostic screening tools used for major depressive disorders in Type 2 diabetes mellitus (DM2). This quality improvement study aims to compare the rate of depression screening, treatment, and referral to behavioral health in adult patients with DM2 pre and post-integration of depression screening tools into the electronic health record (EHR). Methods We conducted a retrospective chart review on patients aged 18 years and above with a diagnosis of DM2 and no initial diagnosis of depression or other mental illnesses. Chart reviews included those from 2018 or prior for before integration data and 2020 to present for after integration. Sixty subjects were randomly selected from a pool of 33,695 patients in the clinic with DM2 from the year 2013-2021. Thirty of the patients were prior to the integration of depression screening tools PHQ2 and PHQ9 into the EHR, while the other half were post-integration. The study population ranged from 18-83 years old. Results All subjects (100%) were screened using PHQ2 before integration and after integration. Twenty percent of patients screened had a positive PHQ2 among subjects before integration, while 10% had a positive PHQ2 after integration. Twenty percent of patients were screened with a PHQ9 pre-integration which accounted for 100% of those subjects with a positive PHQ2. However, of the 10% of patients with a positive PHQ2 post-integration, only 6.7 % of subjects were screened, which means not all patients with a positive PHQ2 were adequately screened post-integration. Interestingly, 10% of patients were treated with antidepressants before integration, while none were treated with medications in the post-integration group. There were no referrals made to the behavior team in either group. Conclusion There is no difference between the prevalence of depression screening before or after integration of depression screening tools in the EHR. The study noted that there is a decrease in the treatment using antidepressants after integration. However, other undetermined conditions could have influenced this. Furthermore, not all patients with positive PHQ2 in the after-integration group were screened with PHQ9. The authors are unsure if the integration of the depression screens influenced this change. In both groups, there is no difference between referrals to the behavior team. Implications to Nursing Practice This quality improvement study shows that providers are good at screening their DM2 patients for depression whether the screening tools were incorporated in the EHR or not. However, future studies regarding providers, support staff, and patient convenience relating to accessibility and availability of the tool should be made. Additional issues to consider are documentation reliability, hours of work to scan documents in the chart, risk of documentation getting lost, and the use of paper that requires shredding to comply with privacy.

Resumen
The production of semantic annotations has gained renewed attention due to the development of anatomical ontologies and the documentation of morphological data. Two methods are proposed in this production, differing in their methodological and philosophical approaches: class-based method and instance-based method. The first, the semantic annotations are established as class expressions, while in the second, the annotations incorporate individuals. An empirical evaluation of the above methods was applied in the morphological description of Neotropical species of the genus Lepidocyrtus (Collembola: Entomobryidae: Lepidocyrtinae). The semantic annotations are expressed as RDF triple, which is a language most flexible than the Entity-Quality syntax used commonly in the description of phenotypes. The morphological descriptions were built in Protégé 5.4.0 and stored in an RDF store created with Fuseki Jena. The semantic annotations based on RDF triple increase the interoperability and integration of data from diverse sources, e.g., museum data. However, computational challenges are present, which are related with the development of semi-automatic methods for the generation of RDF triple, interchanging between texts and RDF triple, and the access by non-expert users.

Resumen
The Genetic Technology (Precision Breeding) Act (England) aims to develop a science-based process for the regulation and authorisation of precision bred organisms (PBOs). PBOs are created by genetic technologies but exhibit changes which could have occurred through traditional processes. This current review, commissioned by the Food Standards Agency (FSA), aims to clarify existing terminologies, explore viable methods for the detection, identification, and quantification of products of precision breeding techniques, address and identify potential solutions to the analytical challenges presented, and provide recommendations for working towards an infrastructure to support detection of precision bred products in the future. The review includes a summary of the terminology in relation to analytical approaches for detection of precision bred products. A harmonised set of terminology contributes towards promoting further understanding of the common terms used in genome editing. A review of the current state of the art of potential methods for the detection, identification and quantification of precision bred products in the UK, has been provided. Parallels are drawn with the evolution of synergistic analytical approaches for the detection of Genetically Modified Organisms (GMOs), where molecular biology techniques are used to detect DNA sequence changes in an organism’s genome. The scope and limitations of targeted and untargeted methods are summarised. Current scientific opinion supports that modern molecular biology techniques (i.e., quantitative real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR), digital PCR (dPCR) and Next Generation Sequencing (NGS)) have the technical capability to detect small alterations in an organism’s genome, given specific prerequisites of a priori information on the DNA sequence of interest and of the associated flanking regions. These techniques also provide the best infra-structure for developing potential approaches for detection of PBOs. Should sufficient information be known regarding a sequence alteration and confidence can be attributed to this being specific to a PBO line, then detection, identification and quantification can potentially be achieved. Genome editing and new mutagenesis techniques are umbrella terms, incorporating a plethora of approaches with diverse modes of action and resultant mutational changes. Generalisations regarding techniques and methods for detection for all PBO products are not appropriate, and each genome edited product may have to be assessed on a case-by-case basis. The application of modern molecular biology techniques, in isolation and by targeting just a single alteration, are unlikely to provide unequivocal evidence to the source of that variation, be that as a result of precision breeding or as a result of traditional processes. In specific instances, detection and identification may be technically possible, if enough additional information is available in order to prove that a DNA sequence or sequences are unique to a specific genome edited line (e.g., following certain types of Site-Directed Nucelase-3 (SDN-3) based approaches). The scope, gaps, and limitations associated with traceability of PBO products were examined, to identify current and future challenges. Alongside these, recommendations were made to provide the infrastructure for working towards a toolkit for the design, development and implementation of analytical methods for detection of PBO products. Recognition is given that fully effective methods for PBO detection have yet to be realised, so these recommendations have been made as a tool for progressing the current state-of-the-art for research into such methods. Recommendations for the following five main challenges were identified. Firstly, PBOs submitted for authorisation should be assessed on a case-by-case basis in terms of the extent, type and number of genetic changes, to make an informed decision on the likelihood of a molecular biology method being developed for unequivocal identification of that specific PBO. The second recommendation is that a specialist review be conducted, potentially informed by UK and EU governmental departments, to monitor those PBOs destined for the authorisation process, and actively assess the extent of the genetic variability and mutations, to make an informed decision on the type and complexity of detection methods that need to be developed. This could be further informed as part of the authorisation process and augmented via a publicly available register or database. Thirdly, further specialist research and development, allied with laboratory-based evidence, is required to evaluate the potential of using a weight of evidence approach for the design and development of detection methods for PBOs. This concept centres on using other indicators, aside from the single mutation of interest, to increase the likelihood of providing a unique signature or footprint. This includes consideration of the genetic background, flanking regions, off-target mutations, potential CRISPR/Cas activity, feasibility of heritable epigenetic and epitranscriptomic changes, as well as supplementary material from supplier, origin, pedigree and other documentation. Fourthly, additional work is recommended, evaluating the extent/type/nature of the genetic changes, and assessing the feasibility of applying threshold limits associated with these genetic changes to make any distinction on how they may have occurred. Such a probabilistic approach, supported with bioinformatics, to determine the likelihood of particular changes occurring through genome editing or traditional processes, could facilitate rapid classification and pragmatic labelling of products and organisms containing specific mutations more readily. Finally, several scientific publications on detection of genome edited products have been based on theoretical principles. It is recommended to further qualify these using evidenced based practical experimental work in the laboratory environment. Additional challenges and recommendations regarding the design, development and implementation of potential detection methods were also identified. Modern molecular biology-based techniques, inclusive of qPCR, dPCR, and NGS, in combination with appropriate bioinformatics pipelines, continue to offer the best analytical potential for developing methods for detecting PBOs. dPCR and NGS may offer the best technical potential, but qPCR remains the most practicable option as it is embedded in most analytical laboratories. Traditional screening approaches, similar to those for conventional transgenic GMOs, cannot easily be used for PBOs due to the deficit in common control elements incorporated into the host genome. However, some limited screening may be appropriate for PBOs as part of a triage system, should a priori information be known regarding the sequences of interest. The current deficit of suitable methods to detect and identify PBOs precludes accurate PBO quantification. Development of suitable reference materials to aid in the traceability of PBOs remains an issue, particularly for those PBOs which house on- and off-target mutations which can segregate. Off-target mutations may provide an additional tool to augment methods for detection, but unless these exhibit complete genetic linkage to the sequence of interest, these can also segregate out in resulting generations. Further research should be conducted regarding the likelihood of multiple mutations segregating out in a PBO, to help inform the development of appropriate PBO reference materials, as well as the potential of using off-target mutations as an additional tool for PBO traceability. Whilst recognising the technical challenges of developing and maintaining pan-genomic databases, this report recommends that the UK continues to consider development of such a resource, either as a UK centric version, or ideally through engagement in parallel EU and international activities to better achieve harmonisation and shared responsibilities. Such databases would be an invaluable resource in the design of reliable detection methods, as well as for confirming that a mutation is as a result of genome editing. PBOs and their products show great potential within the agri-food sector, necessitating a science-based analytical framework to support UK legislation, business and consumers. Differentiating between PBOs generated through genome editing compared to organisms which exhibit the same mutational change through traditional processes remains analytically challenging, but a broad set of diagnostic technologies (e.g., qPCR, NGS, dPCR) coupled with pan-genomic databases and bioinformatics approaches may help contribute to filling this analytical gap, and support the safety, transparency, proportionality, traceability and consumer confidence associated with the UK food chain.

Resumen
There is much to learn from the recent New Zealand and Japan earthquakes. These earthquakes produced differing levels of liquefaction-induced ground movements that damaged buildings, bridges, and buried utilities. Along with the often spectacular observations of infrastructure damage, there were many cases where well-built facilities located in areas of liquefaction-induced ground failure were not damaged. Researchers are working on characterizing and learning from these observations of both poor and good performance. The “Liquefaction-Induced Ground Movements Effects” workshop provided an opportunity to take advantage of recent research investments following these earthquake events to develop a path forward for an integrated understanding of how infrastructure performs with various levels of liquefaction. Fifty-five researchers in the field, two-thirds from the U.S. and one-third from New Zealand and Japan, convened in Berkeley, California, in November 2016. The objective of the workshop was to identify research thrusts offering the greatest potential for advancing our capabilities for understanding, evaluating, and mitigating the effects of liquefaction-induced ground movements on structures and lifelines. The workshop also advanced the development of younger researchers by identifying promising research opportunities and approaches, and promoting future collaborations among participants. During the workshop, participants identified five cross-cutting research priorities that need to be addressed to advance our scientific understanding of and engineering procedures for soil liquefaction effects during earthquakes. Accordingly, this report was organized to address five research themes: (1) case history data; (2) integrated site characterization; (3) numerical analysis; (4) challenging soils; and (5) effects and mitigation of liquefaction in the built environment and communities. These research themes provide an integrated approach toward transformative advances in addressing liquefaction hazards worldwide. The archival documentation of liquefaction case history datasets in electronic data repositories for use by the broader research community is critical to accelerating advances in liquefaction research. Many of the available liquefaction case history datasets are not fully documented, published, or shared. Developing and sharing well-documented liquefaction datasets reflect significant research efforts. Therefore, datasets should be published with a permanent DOI, with appropriate citation language for proper acknowledgment in publications that use the data. Integrated site characterization procedures that incorporate qualitative geologic information about the soil deposits at a site and the quantitative information from in situ and laboratory engineering tests of these soils are essential for quantifying and minimizing the uncertainties associated site characterization. Such information is vitally important to help identify potential failure modes and guide in situ testing. At the site scale, one potential way to do this is to use proxies for depositional environments. At the fabric and microstructure scale, the use of multiple in situ tests that induce different levels of strain should be used to characterize soil properties. The development of new in situ testing tools and methods that are more sensitive to soil fabric and microstructure should be continued. The development of robust, validated analytical procedures for evaluating the effects of liquefaction on civil infrastructure persists as a critical research topic. Robust validated analytical procedures would translate into more reliable evaluations of critical civil infrastructure iv performance, support the development of mechanics-based, practice-oriented engineering models, help eliminate suspected biases in our current engineering practices, and facilitate greater integration with structural, hydraulic, and wind engineering analysis capabilities for addressing multi-hazard problems. Effective collaboration across countries and disciplines is essential for developing analytical procedures that are robust across the full spectrum of geologic, infrastructure, and natural hazard loading conditions encountered in practice There are soils that are challenging to characterize, to model, and to evaluate, because their responses differ significantly from those of clean sands: they cannot be sampled and tested effectively using existing procedures, their properties cannot be estimated confidently using existing in situ testing methods, or constitutive models to describe their responses have not yet been developed or validated. Challenging soils include but are not limited to: interbedded soil deposits, intermediate (silty) soils, mine tailings, gravelly soils, crushable soils, aged soils, and cemented soils. New field and laboratory test procedures are required to characterize the responses of these materials to earthquake loadings, physical experiments are required to explore mechanisms, and new soil constitutive models tailored to describe the behavior of such soils are required. Well-documented case histories involving challenging soils where both the poor and good performance of engineered systems are documented are also of high priority. Characterizing and mitigating the effects of liquefaction on the built environment requires understanding its components and interactions as a system, including residential housing, commercial and industrial buildings, public buildings and facilities, and spatially distributed infrastructure, such as electric power, gas and liquid fuel, telecommunication, transportation, water supply, wastewater conveyance/treatment, and flood protection systems. Research to improve the characterization and mitigation of liquefaction effects on the built environment is essential for achieving resiliency. For example, the complex mechanisms of ground deformation caused by liquefaction and building response need to be clarified and the potential bias and dispersion in practice-oriented procedures for quantifying building response to liquefaction need to be quantified. Component-focused and system-performance research on lifeline response to liquefaction is required. Research on component behavior can be advanced by numerical simulations in combination with centrifuge and large-scale soil–structure interaction testing. System response requires advanced network analysis that accounts for the propagation of uncertainty in assessing the effects of liquefaction on large, geographically distributed systems. Lastly, research on liquefaction mitigation strategies, including aspects of ground improvement, structural modification, system health monitoring, and rapid recovery planning, is needed to identify the most effective, cost-efficient, and sustainable measures to improve the response and resiliency of the built environment.
