Informatization Innovation Practice of Labor Education in Colleges and Universities in the New Era

Abstract This paper discusses the informationization innovation practice of labor education in colleges and universities in the new era, focusing on the Analysis of labor education test question correlation mining and learning situation clustering. It is found that students make more mistakes in the knowledge point of “ideological cognition”, and if they make mistakes in this knowledge point, they are also prone to make mistakes in other knowledge points. The academic clusters were categorized into excellent learners, average learners and risky learners, in which the average classroom participation score of exceptional learners was 10.26, and the average classroom quiz score of intermediate learners was 16.99. Correlation analysis shows that the correlation between attendance and assignment score is 0.73, the correlation between video viewing length and number of labors is 0.66, and the correlation between classroom activeness and quiz scores is 0.49. These data emphasize the critical role of information technology teaching in enhancing the learning effect, and reveal the problem of insufficient self-learning ability of some students.

Research on Precision Education Management Strategies for College Students Based on the Background of Informatization Innovation and Entrepreneurship

Abstract The complex new media environment has brought greater challenges to the education and management of college students in colleges and universities, and put forward higher requirements for the work of college students. In this paper, based on the Apriori algorithm of association rules, we extracted frequent itemsets from students’ performance data sets, and mined the association rules between students’ behaviors and the risk of failing the exams according to the confidence level and support level. The potential influence variables of students’ innovation and entrepreneurship ability are explored through factor analysis, the intrinsic connection between the original variables is analyzed, and structural equations are used to verify the fit and aggregation of the obtained factors. Based on the information on correlation rules between students’ behavior and performance, precise performance management strategies for students are proposed, and targeted management methods for innovation and entrepreneurship education are formulated. The results indicate that the level of interest correlates with the enrollment grades of A and D, which are respectively 0.569 and 0.403. The degree of support, confidence Xing, and the degree of interest of the student’s enrollment grades of D and graduation grades of A are 0.234, 0.535, and 0.694. It shows that the student’s grades have a strong correlation with their interest in learning, and the education management should pay attention to the cultivation of the student’s interest in learning.

Smart Sustainable Marketing and Emerging Technologies: Evidence from the Greek Business Market

In the market-shaping literature, markets are viewed as the results of intentional and planned acts. Market shapers do not often create technology themselves despite the fact that technical advancements can hasten changes in smart sustainable marketing. This study assessed the development of emerging technologies in business informatics with a focus on smart sustainable marketing and its relevant emerging technologies. Data were collected using an online questionnaire from 320 marketing professionals in Greece. The study revealed that emerging technologies have a significant relationship with smart sustainable marketing. Drivers of smart sustainable marketing positively enhance the effectiveness of smart sustainable marketing, and innovations in business informatics have a positive effect on smart sustainable marketing. It is clear from our results that the area of emerging technologies and smart sustainable marketing has not received much attention since such developments depend on complementary technologies that make it possible for emerging methods or technologies to integrate resources and co-create value. This study conceptually distinguishes between technology as a market offering and technology as a business platform for market shaping and innovation. Managers in the business industry and elsewhere are urged by this research to more closely examine the development of ancillary technologies, which could serve as platforms for market innovation and market shaping. Discovering and taking advantage of these opportunities is crucial for success in smart sustainable marketing. This study also presents a significant addition to the academic community because of the empirical evidence on the relationships between business informatics, smart sustainable marketing, and new technology. In terms of technology, it expands the theoretical framework of market dynamics and offers a novel perspective on the ways in which technology influences the structure and sustainability of markets.

Comparing different approaches to define shading control threshold via a new automatic building simulation platform

Active shading systems are essential to prevent heat gains in buildings and reduce the risk of overheating phenomena. The control logic must avoid overheating while allowing solar gains during heating hours. In general, smart control is based on a temperature and/or solar irradiation threshold; however, innovative informatics tools now allow optimising these thresholds based on specific building and climate characteristics. The paper presents a new building energy dynamic simulation platform used here to define optimal shading control thresholds for free-running and mechanically cooled spaces. Several shading control approaches are applied and compared, considering fixed hourly schedules, controls based on standard thresholds, and optimised thresholds with the tool. The analysis is performed considering the sole summer. The approach shows how the developed platform and the proposed methodology can optimise shading control thresholds, considering the specific building characteristics and the local climate conditions, consequently reducing energy needs or thermal discomfort conditions.

Using Research to Transform Electronic Health Record Modernization: Advancing a VA Partnered Research Agenda to Increase Research Impacts.

The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) is undergoing an enterprise-wide transition from a homegrown electronic health record (EHR) system to a commercial off-the-shelf product. Because of the far-reaching effects of the EHR transformation through all aspects of the healthcare system, VA Health Services Research and Development identified a need to develop a research agenda that aligned with health system priorities so that work may inform evidence-based improvements in implementation processes and outcomes. The purpose of this paper is to report on the development of a research agenda designed to optimize the EHR transition processes and implementation outcomes in a large, national integrated delivery system. We used a sequential mixed-methods approach (portfolio assessment, literature review) combined with multi-level stakeholder engagement approach that included research, informatics, and healthcare operations experts in EHR transitions in and outside the VA. Data from each stage were integrated iteratively to identify and prioritize key research areas within and across all stakeholder groups. VA informatics researchers, regional VA health system leaders, national VA program office leaders, and external informatics experts with EHR transition experience. Through three rounds of stakeholder engagement, priority research topics were identified that focused on operations, user experience, patient safety, clinical outcomes, value realization, and informatics innovations. The resulting EHR-focused research agenda was designed to guide development and conduct of rigorous research evidence aimed at providing actionable results to address the needs of operations partners, clinicians, clinical staff, patients, and other stakeholders. Continued investment in research and evaluation from both research and operations divisions of VA will be critical to executing the research agenda, ensuring its salience and value to the health system and its end users, and ultimately realizing the promise of this EHR transition.

The Coupling Between Tropical Meteorology, Aerosol Lifecycle, Convection, and Radiation during the Cloud, Aerosol and Monsoon Processes Philippines Experiment (CAMP2Ex)

Abstract The NASA Cloud, Aerosol, and Monsoon Processes Philippines Experiment (CAMP2Ex) employed the NASA P-3, Stratton Park Engineering Company (SPEC) Learjet 35, and a host of satellites and surface sensors to characterize the coupling of aerosol processes, cloud physics, and atmospheric radiation within the Maritime Continent’s complex southwest monsoonal environment. Conducted in the late summer of 2019 from Luzon, Philippines, in conjunction with the Office of Naval Research Propagation of Intraseasonal Tropical Oscillations (PISTON) experiment with its R/V Sally Ride stationed in the northwestern tropical Pacific, CAMP2Ex documented diverse biomass burning, industrial and natural aerosol populations, and their interactions with small to congestus convection. The 2019 season exhibited El Niño conditions and associated drought, high biomass burning emissions, and an early monsoon transition allowing for observation of pristine to massively polluted environments as they advected through intricate diurnal mesoscale and radiative environments into the monsoonal trough. CAMP2Ex’s preliminary results indicate 1) increasing aerosol loadings tend to invigorate congestus convection in height and increase liquid water paths; 2) lidar, polarimetry, and geostationary Advanced Himawari Imager remote sensing sensors have skill in quantifying diverse aerosol and cloud properties and their interaction; and 3) high-resolution remote sensing technologies are able to greatly improve our ability to evaluate the radiation budget in complex cloud systems. Through the development of innovative informatics technologies, CAMP2Ex provides a benchmark dataset of an environment of extremes for the study of aerosol, cloud, and radiation processes as well as a crucible for the design of future observing systems.

Abstract 4275: Averon: informatics platform to discover Actionable Vulnerabilities Enabled by Rewired Oncogenic Networks

Abstract Missense mutations can change protein structure, cellular localization, and functions. Such changes lead to the rewiring of protein-protein interaction (PPI) networks, activation of oncogenic pathways, and acquisition of cancer hallmarks. However, the translation of the landscape of oncogenic mutations into clinically actionable biological models for cancer target discovery remains a major challenge. We address this challenge by leveraging the power of computational systems biology supported by high-throughput screening technologies. While some mutations can disrupt the PPIs, others may induce new PPIs that are not natural for the wild-type counterparts. Recently, we have established a quantitative High Throughput differential Screening (qHT-dS) platform [1] to discover such mutant-enabled or neomorph PPIs (neoPPIs). The screening of more than 13,000 mutant interactions revealed a landscape of gain-of-interactions encompassing both oncogenic and tumor suppressor mutations. This emerging neoPPI landscape may offer new mutant-directed therapeutic approaches for precision medicine. However, to infer clinically actionable mechanistic insights into how neoPPIs promote tumorigenesis special computational tools are needed. To inform the neoPPI-based target discovery, we develop a set of innovative informatics tools for discovering Actionable Vulnerabilities Enabled by Rewired Oncogenic Networks (Averon). Implemented in a widely-used Jupyter Notebook format, the Averon streamlines the identification of the oncogenic programs and clinically significant genes that are regulated by neoPPIs in cancer patients. The Averon can recapitulate well-established connectivity between known mutant-dependent PPIs and specific oncogenic pathways and reveal new, previously unknown mechanisms of neoPPI-mediated oncogenic signaling. To inform new therapeutic strategies in neoPPI-dependent cancers, Averon connects neoPPI-regulated genes with available approved drugs and clinical compounds. Together, the Averon provides a powerful informatics environment to determine therapeutically actionable vulnerabilities created by mutant-regulated protein-protein interactions to inform new personalized therapeutic strategies in cancer.

Innovative informatics interventions to improve health and health care.

In this editorial, I highlight 5 papers that address innovative informatics interventions—3 research studies and 2 reviews. The papers reflect a variety of information technologies and processes including mobile health (mHealth),1 behavioral nudges in the electronic health record (EHR),2 adaptive intervention framework,3 predictive models,4 and artificial intelligence (eg, machine learning, data mining, natural language processing).5 The interventions were designed to address important clinical and public health problems such as adherence to antiretroviral therapy for persons living with HIV (PLWH),1 opioid use disorder,3 and pain assessment and management,5 as well as aspects of healthcare quality including no-show rates for appointments4 and erroneous decisions, waste, and misuse of resources due to EHR choice architecture for clinician orders.3 Schnall et al1 completed a randomized controlled trial (RCT) to assess the efficacy of an mHealth self-management interventions for PLWH on antiretroviral adherence and viral suppression. The novel WiseApp intervention comprised testimonials of lived experiences, push-notification reminders, medication trackers, health surveys, chat rooms, and a daily “To-Do” list. In a sample of PLWH with suboptimal adherence, daily antiretroviral adherence was significantly higher in the WiseApp group as compared to attention control group from day 1 to day 59 but not for days 60–120. There were no significant differences in viral suppression. The authors suggest that there is a need for booster or a combination intervention approaches after the initial effects of the mHealth intervention wanes.
