Structure, status, and span: gender differences in co-authorship networks across 16 region-subject pairs (2009–2013)

Global and team science approaches are on the rise, as is attention to the network underpinnings of gender disparities in scientific collaboration. Many network studies of men’s and women’s collaboration rely on bounded case studies of single disciplines and/or single countries and limited measures related to the collaborative process. We deploy network analysis on the scholarly database Scopus to gain insight into gender inequity across regions and subject areas and to better understand contextual underpinnings of stagnancy. Using a dataset of over 1.2 million authors and 144 million collaborative relationships, we capture international and unbounded co-authorship networks that include intra- and inter-disciplinary co-authorship ties across time (2009–2013). We describe how gender informs structural features and status differences in network relationships, focusing on men and women authors in 16 region-subject pairs. We pay particular attention to how connected authors are (first- and second-order degree centrality), attributes of authors’ collaborative relationships (including the “quality” and other characteristics of these ties), tendencies towards gender homophily (proportion of same-gender ties), and the nature of men’s and women’s interdisciplinary and international reach. Men have more advantageous first-order connections, yet second-order collaborative profiles look more similar. Men and women exhibit homophilous attachment to authors of the same gender, consistent over time. There is notable variation in the level of gender disparity within subjects across countries. We discuss this variation in the context of global trends in men’s and women’s scientific participation and cultural- and country-level influences on the organization and production of science.

Implementing integrated care in ophthalmology: a community case study.

In 2017, in a context of financial and patient care challenges, Moorfields Eye Hospital in the borough of Croydon launched the first Ophthalmology Integrated Care Contract in the United Kingdom. A realistic, systematic approach is presented for an efficient implementation of an integrated care ophthalmology contract under a lead provider. The main elements of the new contract are portrayed. A new healthcare contract that would lead to system-wide transformation requires significant time commitment, vision, shared narrative, leadership, multi-functional working culture, shared accountability of all participating parties and education and support of all parties involved. Key levers to elevate the quality of care are collaborative relationships between health professionals, investing in information and technology and facilitating bottom-up innovation. System-wide changes such, as integrated care contracts are possible, although the interplay between context, design and implementation is more complex than expected.

AI and Chat GPT in Language Teaching: Enhancing EFL Classroom Support and Transforming Assessment Techniques

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and Chat GPT technology in English as a Foreign Language (EFL) instruction has ushered in transformative changes in language learning and assessment. This essay explores the multifaceted impact of AI and Chat GPT on EFL education, emphasizing their role in personalized language learning, real-time language practice, and examination techniques. AI facilitates personalized language learning by tailoring lessons to individual students' needs, promoting deeper language understanding. Real-time language practice is enhanced through dynamic interactions with AI-powered chatbots, which provide immediate feedback, boosting proficiency and confidence. In examination techniques, AI automates grading and feedback, improving efficiency and consistency, while also enhancing test security. The integration of AI and Chat GPT raises ethical considerations regarding privacy, equity, and responsible AI usage. Successful case studies, including Duolingo's language learning platform, Chat GPT in EFL classrooms, and ExamSoft's examination software, highlight the practical benefits of AI integration. The future of EFL education lies in a collaborative relationship between human teachers and AI, addressing challenges and limitations while prioritizing ethical considerations, equitable access, and meaningful human interaction. The potential for a more effective and engaging EFL learning experience is achievable with a commitment to these principles.

TDLearning: Trusted Distributed Collaborative Learning Based on Blockchain Smart Contracts

Massive amounts of data drive the performance of deep learning models, but in practice, data resources are often highly dispersed and bound by data privacy and security concerns, making it difficult for multiple data sources to share their local data directly. Data resources are difficult to aggregate effectively, resulting in a lack of support for model training. How to collaborate between data sources in order to aggregate the value of data resources is therefore an important research question. However, existing distributed-collaborative-learning architectures still face serious challenges in collaborating between nodes that lack mutual trust, with security and trust issues seriously affecting the confidence and willingness of data sources to participate in collaboration. Blockchain technology provides trusted distributed storage and computing, and combining it with collaboration between data sources to build trusted distributed-collaborative-learning architectures is an extremely valuable research direction for application. We propose a trusted distributed-collaborative-learning mechanism based on blockchain smart contracts. Firstly, the mechanism uses blockchain smart contracts to define and encapsulate collaborative behaviours, relationships and norms between distributed collaborative nodes. Secondly, we propose a model-fusion method based on feature fusion, which replaces the direct sharing of local data resources with distributed-model collaborative training and organises distributed data resources for distributed collaboration to improve model performance. Finally, in order to verify the trustworthiness and usability of the proposed mechanism, on the one hand, we implement formal modelling and verification of the smart contract by using Coloured Petri Net and prove that the mechanism satisfies the expected trustworthiness properties by verifying the formal model of the smart contract associated with the mechanism. On the other hand, the model-fusion method based on feature fusion is evaluated in different datasets and collaboration scenarios, while a typical collaborative-learning case is implemented for a comprehensive analysis and validation of the mechanism. The experimental results show that the proposed mechanism can provide a trusted and fair collaboration infrastructure for distributed-collaboration nodes that lack mutual trust and organise decentralised data resources for collaborative model training to develop effective global models.

A novel aeroengine real-time model for active stability control: Compressor instabilities integration

Developing a high-confidence entire aeroengine model that accurately incorporating unstable modes is imperative for advancing active stability control. This paper proposes a real-time model for the active stability control of aeroengines, which integrates the compressor's instability into the classical component level model (CLM). Firstly, the principles of CLM and modeling methods for inlet distortion, compressor instability dynamics, and air injector are introduced. Then, the collaborative relationship between the compressor and the other engine's components are studied to construct a real-time model with coupled instability mechanisms, involving the extension of compressor characteristics and the parameters matching between various instability models and the CLM. Finally, simulation cases under multiple unstable modes are set up to verify the effectiveness of the model, and standard instability detection algorithms are employed to confirm the confidence of the unstable signals generated by the model. The results show that the proposed model effectively captures the dynamic characteristics of stall and surge, as well as the steady-state and dynamic simulation capabilities during full operating range. Besides, it can also simulate the impact of the inlet distortion and the air injection on compressor stability. The pulsating characteristics of pressure signals and the variations of performance parameters of the model during stall and surge are highly consistent with the real test data. Moreover, the model achieves a single-step run time of no more than 7.16 ms on the embedded platform, fulfilling real-time requirements. Consequently, the model can serve as a foundation for verifying three critical aspects of active stability control: instability detection, practical actuator, and feedback control algorithms.

Ecological and Real-Time Route Selection Method for Multiple Vehicles in Urban Road Network

Traffic congestion has been a hot topic of research in the field of intelligent transportation, which can be alleviated by efficient route navigation. Most of the existing route planning methods are non-negotiated algorithms, which do not take into account the route conflicts and collaborative relationships between multiple vehicles. Also, most negotiated algorithms have not been comprehensively considered dynamic route collaboration between vehicles, large-scale efficient computation, environmental pollution, etc. Therefore, an ecological multivehicle real-time route selection model (EMR2SM) for urban road networks is firstly proposed in this paper, which combines real-time traffic conditions of the road network with travel time, distance, and exhaust emissions as optimization indicators. In order to solve the large-scale computation problem of traditional negotiated algorithms, an adaptive multiswarm bee colony (AMSBC) algorithm is designed, which efficiently solves the multivehicle dynamic route selection problem. AMSBC searches the optimal route for each vehicle in parallel through multiple population division and self-adaption mechanism, to make multivehicle route selection reach Nash equilibrium. Compared with three non-negotiated optimization algorithms based on swarm technology, EMR2SM is verified by experiments that it improves the efficiency and accuracy of the optimal route selection for multiple vehicles and reduces vehicle emissions, which can effectively reduce traffic congestion and environmental pollution.

The last paradise for creative workers? The case of Shueisha and Weekly Shōnen Jump

ABSTRACT The Weekly Shōnen Jump, published by Shueisha, is widely seen as the most important publication in global manga culture and home to some of the world’s most iconic media franchises, including Dragon Ball, and yet remains largely understudied. This article interrogates how Shōnen Jump’s success, steered by editors who are often deemed ‘uncreative’ within Japan’s inflexible employment framework, challenges the Western ideal of creativity that is associated with autonomy and flexibility. The inquiry is conducted through two primary processes: firstly, the recruitment of editors – considered as creative managers – through ‘Shukatsu,’ a Japanese system that predominantly favors elite university graduates, who often lack a passion for manga or relevant education and work experience; and secondly, the dynamics of their collaborative relationships with manga artists. Highlighting Shueisha’s exceptional job security and stability, akin to a ‘last paradise’ for a select few creative professionals, this examination challenges the homogenized Western narrative of creative labor, as a class characterized by precarity and challenges the conventional perception of creativity itself.

Implicit and Explicit Modelling: Case Study of EMU (Eastern Mediterranean University) Teacher Educators’ Perceptions and Practice

The broad purpose of this qualitative study is three-fold. One, to gain Eastern Mediterranean University (EMU) teacher educators’ views on the significance of the teaching methods of implicit and explicit modelling. Two, to ascertain aspects of practice they modelled and, three, benefits and challenges associated with using the methods. To achieve the purpose all 11 teacher educators from the faculty were asked three broad questions via a semi-structured interview protocol. Interviews were audio recorded then transcribed. The data was analysed using content analysis and the three questions as pre-set categories. Examples of the findings include the fact that all the participants have a favourable attitude towards both implicit and explicit modelling. All regarded modelling as important for personal and professional growth. Time is the main constraint to their use of the methods, and critical friendship based on a collaborative relationship is considered to be of central importance to their engagement with the methods. Implications of the findings for teacher education and educators include the need to encourage open discussion, reflection, the use of the methods among teacher educators, the development of a supportive environment, and the provision of continued professional development opportunities.

Research Progress and Hot-spot Analysis of The Economic Complexity Research Based on CiteSpace

Abstract Economic complexity has been one of the key topics in evolutionary economic geography recently. It focuses on the structural transformation of industries and endogenous growth paths contributes to the understanding of the process of structural transformation of regional economies and is important for the deepening of theories such as development economics. However, little attention is currently being paid to the quantitative description of the evolution of this rapidly developing field of study. Therefore, to reveal the development process, hot topics and evolutionary trends of economic complexity research, a bibliometric approach and the visual analysis software CiteSpace were implemented based on 403 literatures related to economic complexity in the Web of Science core database from 1998-2022. The results show that the overall trend of economic complexity is on the rise, with hot topics involving diversity, export complexity, ecology and environment, international trade and many other fields. At the same time, the overall distribution of authors is relatively fragmented, and there is less interdisciplinary collaboration between highly productive authors. Most publishers have formed collaborative relationships with other institutions, and those that publish more have formed close partnerships. JEL classification numbers: F14. Keywords: Economic complexity, Research progress, Hot-spot analysis, Bibliometric approach, CiteSpace.

Trauma-Informed Primary Healthcare for Parents: Multidisciplinary Experiences in Rural Service Implementation

ABSTRACT Trauma-informed approaches to service delivery increase awareness of the pervasiveness of trauma exposure and acknowledge the lifelong effects of traumatic stress on health and wellbeing. This study explored workforce experiences of trauma-informed primary healthcare for parents. A face-to-face workshop was conducted with 14 Victorian rural professionals in 2021. Local workforce survey results (n = 63) about trauma-informed care were presented to the group (50% social workers) and they discussed strategies for system implementation. Content analysis was used to develop four categories from the transcribed workshop discussion: (1) primary healthcare understanding of complex trauma; (2) primary healthcare responses to parents; (3) trauma-informed care training; and (4) community and relational strategies to foster trauma-informed care. Our findings highlighted that structural barriers relating to resource control and restrictive program design negatively impact trauma-informed approaches. In contrast, trauma-informed service delivery is enabled by collaboration and building relationships between clients, the workforce, and organisations. In discussing these findings, we draw upon notions of power: namely, discursive, epistemic, and material power, which affect equity. To ensure the client’s voice is prioritised when planning trauma-informed care, we recommend the integration of local knowledge and the embedding of community-based strategies throughout all implementation processes. IMPLICATIONS Preparation for trauma-informed care implementation in rural primary healthcare requires strategies to identify and address structural barriers. Increased use of implementation frameworks would enhance multidisciplinary innovation in trauma-informed practice and adaptation when supporting parents. Employing a typology of discursive, epistemic, and material power to implementation processes has beneficial application in social work to challenge systemic reproduction of inequity.

Satisfaction in Business Relationships Between Companies and Dark Side Behaviour: A Literature Review

Buyer-seller relationships play a pivotal role in relationship marketing, as their effective management can yield significant benefits for companies. Satisfaction is the linchpin that sustains these business relationships over time, yet it can be influenced by various factors, particularly negative behaviors known as “dark side” behaviors. These behaviors encompass actions such as concealing information, opportunism, exploiting the counterparty, causing confusion, sharing customer information without consent, providing misleading information, breaching privacy, levying unjustified charges, and withholding information from customers. The primary objective of this research is to explore the link between dark-side behaviors and satisfaction in business relationships among companies. To achieve this goal, we conducted a comprehensive systematic literature review, scrutinizing 43 articles that aligned with our search criteria. After careful selection, we focused on 30 articles published between 2010 and 2023. Within these articles, we identified the prevailing theories, authors, research methodologies, and limitations, and we also unearthed promising avenues for future research. In conclusion, our findings indicate that there isn’t a singular interpretation of the term “dark side” in commercial relationships. Thus, there is a pressing need to develop tools and frameworks that can pinpoint specific manifestations of dark side behaviors, especially those driven by personal or corporate gain, regardless of the potential harm they may inflict on a business partner within a collaborative relationship.

Suppliers Development Program and Optimization Of Operational Performance of Telecommunication Companies in Kenya

This study explored the relationship between Supplier Development Programs (SDPs) and the optimization of operational performance in Kenya's telecommunication sector. Supplier development had gained prominence as a strategy to improve supplier capabilities, thereby enhancing overall operational efficiency in firms. However, despite its importance, there had been limited research on its direct impact on operational performance in the telecommunications industry, particularly in Kenya. This research sought to fill this gap by examining how supplier development initiatives influenced key operational metrics in major Kenyan telecom companies, such as Safaricom, Airtel, and Telkom Kenya.The study employed a cross-sectional research design, integrating both qualitative and quantitative approaches to gather data from suppliers and procurement employees. A sample of 50 participants was selected using stratified random sampling. The study focused on key dimensions of supplier development, including training, collaboration, feedback, and capacity building, and their impact on operational performance indicators such as efficiency, cost reduction, quality of service, and lead time.The findings revealed a strong positive relationship between supplier development programs and operational performance. Regression analysis showed that 62.41% of the variance in operational performance could be explained by the implementation of supplier development programs. The statistical significance of this relationship was further supported by ANOVA analysis, which indicated a strong contribution of SDPs to performance improvement. Notably, supplier development programs enhanced operational flexibility, reduced costs, improved delivery systems, and increased product quality, all of which contributed to heightened competitiveness in the telecommunication industry. These results emphasized the strategic value of investing in supplier development to optimize performance. The study also highlighted the need for telecommunication firms to foster strong, collaborative relationships with suppliers and to continually invest in their development to maintain and enhance operational efficiencies. The study contributed to existing literature on supplier development by providing insights into its specific impact on operational performance in the Kenyan telecommunications context, offering valuable lessons for both practitioners and researchers in related sectors

Mapping the hotspots and future trends of electrical stimulation for peripheral nerve injury: A bibliometric analysis from 2002 to 2023.

Peripheral nerve injuries often result in severe personal and social burden, and even with surgical treatment, patients continue to have poor clinical outcomes. Over the past two decades, electrical stimulation has been shown to promote axonal regeneration and alleviate refractory neuropathic pain. The aim of this study was to analyse this field using a bibliometric approach. Literature was searched through Web of Science Core Collection (WOSCC) for the years 2002-2023. Literature analysis included: (1) Describing publication trends in the field. (2) Exploring collaborative network relationships. (3) Finding research advances and research hotspots in the field. (4) Summarizing research trends in the field. With the number of studies in this field still increasing, a total of 693 publications were included in the analysis. This field of research is interdisciplinary in nature. Research hotspots include peripheral nerve regeneration, the treatment of neuropathic pain, materials for nerve injury repair, and the restoration of sensory function in patients with peripheral nerve injury. Correspondingly, the development of nerve conduits and systems for peripheral nerve electrical stimulation, clinical trials of peripheral nerve electrical stimulation, and tactile recovery and movement for amputees have shown significant promise as future research trends in this field.

Jaringan Pengelolaan Sampah Rumah Tangga sebagai Bentuk Transisi Ekonomi Sirkular di Kota Surabaya

Waste management in Surabaya City is part of a circular economy, various types of waste are processed into something that has a higher selling value and can drive the community's economy, both at the producer and consumer levels. This study explores how the flow of waste management takes place, both informally and formally. Through qualitative analysis in the form of social networks. The analysis visualizes the pattern of relations between actors and measures the centrality of each key actor. This analysis also helps researchers reveal that the criteria for social networks in waste management in the study area have the characteristics of transactional relationships and collaborative relationships with different patterns. In addition, the relational network looks different for the types of organic and inorganic waste, the highest complexity is found in the transactional network relationships for inorganic waste. Key actors, such as waste banks and scrap dealers, can connect massive collection points and waste management. In addition, researchers found that various parties have contributed significantly to realizing the circular economy transition. In collaboration relations, the Environmental Service has the main role as a regulator bridging the private sector, waste banks, and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs). The Main Waste Bank and the Nol Sampah Community have a role in encouraging changes in the community's paradigm to sort and manage waste with a different approach. In addition, the MSMEs and the informal sector have a significant role in transactional relations, forced by economic factors that can increase the recycling business field. The study findings also answer that household waste has been processed using the 3R concept (Reduce, Reuse, Recycle), part of the circular economy process. The potential for a circular economy transition can also be increased through various social approaches to increase cooperation and create more up-to-date innovations in waste management.

Emergency Department Care for Children During the 2022 Viral Respiratory Illness Surge

Pediatric readiness is essential for all emergency departments (EDs). Children's experience of care may differ according to operational challenges in children's hospitals, community hospitals, and rural EDs caused by recurring and sometimes unpredictable viral illness surges. To describe wait times, lengths of stay (LOS), and ED revisits across diverse EDs participating in a statewide quality collaborative during a surge in visits in 2022. This retrospective cohort study included 25 EDs from the Michigan Emergency Department Improvement Collaborative data registry from January 1, 2021, through December 31, 2022. Pediatric (patient age <18 years) encounters for viral and respiratory conditions were analyzed, comparing wait times, LOS, and ED revisit rates for children's hospital, urban pediatric high-volume (≥10% of overall visits), urban pediatric low-volume (<10% of overall visits), and rural EDs. Surge in ED visit volumes for children with viral and respiratory illnesses from September 1 through December 31, 2022. Prolonged ED visit wait times (arrival to clinician assigned, >4 hours), prolonged LOS (arrival to departure, >12 hours), and ED revisit rate (ED discharge and return within 72 hours). A total of 2 761 361 ED visits across 25 EDs in 2021 and 2022 were included. From September 1 to December 31, 2022, there were 301 688 pediatric visits for viral and respiratory illness, an increase of 71.8% over the 4 preceding months and 15.7% over the same period in 2021. At children's hospitals during the surge, 8.0% of visits had prolonged wait times longer than 4 hours, 8.6% had prolonged LOS longer than 12 hours, and 42 revisits occurred per 1000 ED visits. Prolonged wait times were rare among other sites. However, prolonged LOS affected 425 visits (2.2%) in urban high-pediatric volume EDs, 133 (2.6%) in urban pediatric low-volume EDs, and 176 (3.1%) in rural EDs. High visit volumes were associated with increased ED revisits across sites. In this cohort study of more than 2.7 million ED visits, a pediatric viral illness surge was associated with different pediatric acute care across EDs in the state. Clinical management pathways and quality improvement efforts may more effectively mitigate dangerous clinical conditions with strong collaborative relationships across EDs and setting of care.

Create to Collaborate: using creative activity and participatory performance in online workshops to build collaborative research relationships

BackgroundCreative methods/practices have been highlighted as helpful to develop more collaborative, equitable research partnerships between researchers and communities/public-participants. We asked artist partners to design four online workshops, one on each research priority area: school environments and mental health; wellbeing within the Somali community; air pollution; health data. We aimed to understand whether creative processes can enable public-participants and researcher- participants to meet in a neutral space to discuss a research theme and begin to build collaborative relationships through more equal engagement. Ideas could be taken forwards with seed funding, providing opportunity for collaboration to continue beyond initial workshops.MethodsDifferent artist partners designed and facilitated four workshops. Evaluation data was collected on each workshop using participatory observation and fieldnotes, alongside chatlog data, and one-to-one interviews with 21 workshop participants, providing a contextually rich, comparative evaluation across four diverse workshops. Analysis was thematically driven.ResultsArtist partners took different approaches to designing workshops. The workshops began with introductory games and activities, and there was less emphasis on introductions of people’s roles, with the intention to avoid hierarchical dynamics. Whilst public-participants enjoyed this, some researchers found it challenging and reported confusions over their workshop roles. Disrupting usual practice and challenging norms was not always an easy experience. There were examples where emergent, co-created knowledge was enabled. However, it was more challenging to facilitate longer-term collaborative research projects from the workshops due to different stakeholder priorities, and lack of staff time/ less sense of ownership for further work.ConclusionsCreative activities can influence and impact the types of conversations between public-participants and researchers in a way that changes and challenges power dynamics, shifting towards public-participant driven discussion. Whilst deconstructing hierarchies is important, supporting researchers is key so that any discomfort can be productive and experienced as a vital part of co-production. Longer term collaborative research projects were limited, highlighting a need for facilitation beyond initial workshops, and a sense of ownership from workshop participants to take things forwards. Workshops like these may lend themselves well to research prioritisation. However, taking community-led ideas forwards within research funding landscapes remains challenging.
