METHODS OF SUPPORTING ACCEPTANCE OF ECONOMICLY BASED DECISIONS IN THE MANAGEMENT OF THE QUALITY SYSTEM OF HIGHER EDUCATION

The aim is to influence the level of preparedness in both IT specialties and economic fields closely tied to IT technologies within higher or secondary educational institutions to meet the needs and requirements of diverse companies. Collaborative efforts between businesses and education can effectively tackle the challenge of cultivating high-quality potential personnel and enhancing students' readiness by establishing a standardized set of business demands.When outlining the requirements for IT specialties, crucial vectors encompass not only work experience and skills but also business qualities and the ability to collaborate in a work collective, aligning with company values. To precisely define the competencies of future employees, we advocate for the Delphi method as one of the best approaches. This method involves expert judgment and comprises multiple rounds of anonymous surveys within an expert group to reach a consensus.By fostering interactions between companies and educational institutions in the study, surveys can collect statistics and utilize educational plans that align with organizational interests. Proposed competencies by experts may convey similar semantic meanings but be articulated with different terminology. Additionally, merging similar competencies into more comprehensive ones is feasible. In the era of rapid IT development, addressing this issue can be accomplished through existing text analysis and comparison techniques in databases. Consequently, the unification of competencies can be established during the learning process.

A study of the potential of information technology to improve economic inequality

Abstract The information technology revolution carries a digital dividend and also breeds the mechanism of inequality, and the high-quality development of information technology is of great significance in improving the state of economic inequality. The article utilizes the relative deprivation index and Gini coefficient to quantify the level of economic inequality status and then establishes an evaluation index system combined with the entropy weight TOPSIS method to calculate the level of information technology development. Subsequently, the panel data of 31 provinces and cities in China from 2017 to 2022 are taken as the research object, and the corresponding variables are selected to construct the double-difference model and the threshold regression model. The direct and nonlinear effects of IT application on economic inequality improvement are analyzed through regression. The effect of the level of IT development on the relative deprivation index and Gini coefficient is significantly negative at the 1% level, with regression coefficients of -0.094 and -0.081, respectively, and the relative deprivation index and Gini coefficient have decreased by 187.88% and 117.65%, respectively, over the 13 years after the implementation of IT reform policies. The level of information technology development has two threshold values of 5.412 and 5.634 for the state of economic inequality, and either below the first threshold or above the second threshold significantly reduces the income gap arising from economic inequality. Information technology development can effectively alleviate the state of economic inequality, reduce the economic income gap, and lay the foundation for achieving common prosperity.

Study on the Root Causes and Solutions of Misunderstandings in Cross-cultural Communication

The field that investigates subjects connected to cross-cultural communication, such as diverse cultural origins, linguistic habits, and behavioral patterns, is typically referred to as “cross-cultural communication” from here on out. As a catch-all word for sociology and linguistics, it has more nuanced qualities than psychology while yet having clear use and relevance. To a certain degree, the variety of research methodologies is limited in this area since it is not simple to accomplish deeper inquiry via the use of mathematical models and quantification. Researchers in the field of cross-cultural communication are paying more and more attention to this topic as a result of the rise of globalization and digital technology. The development and use of IT for intercultural communication is illustrative of the growing trend among academics to combine innovation with multidisciplinary methods. Academics must immediately begin to address the pressing matter of how to successfully combine information technology with cross-cultural communication in light of the complexity of the study objectives and difficulties associated with this discipline. In an effort to promote the intersection and creativity of internal and external forces in the field, this research seeks to investigate the practical implementation of the aforementioned ideas.

THE LINK BETWEEN E-GOVERNMENT AND RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT IN THE FIELD OF ICT

The research presented in this article had as objectives carrying out a review of the specialized literature in the field of E-government and the research and development in the field of ICT. To highlight the relationship between E-government and the ICT upsurge opportunities offered by frequent technological breakthroughs, correlation analyzes were carried out using the secondary data made available by the Eurostat databases. Three research hypotheses were formulated and the second research hypothesis, the one regarding the readiness of public sector to upgrade to Digital Transformation (DX) in terms of monetization of digital assets, a weak positive or strongly negative relationship between e-governance activities and companies’ IT research and development expenditures is validated in the case of most European countries. At the opposite pole it was revealed that there are also countries where investments in the development of IT infrastructure led to the upsurge of e-government infrastructure, as a starting point in promoting the increase in expenses with acquiring new IT terminals and services upgrading, as a leading example for countries with lower expenditures on ICT sector development. The other two research hypotheses regarding leveraging the strategic advantages of digitization in terms of state of knowledge and research staff, have been revealed that most European countries, including Romania, have a strongly negative relationship to present e-government services development, requiring future analysis of upstream and downstream use of advanced ICT techniques implemented in e-government development feedback based on reliable data.

Creation of a telehealth application empowering patients with multiple sclerosis: MyApp4SEP

Introduction: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic autoimmune inflammatory disease of the central nervous system. International recommendations advocate multidisciplinary management in specialized centers, still not widely accessible at present. Moreover, this doesn’t fit to newly diagnosed or pauci-symptomatic patients that are still professionally active. Ultimately, the lack of recognition of invisible disorders still persists.
 The use of e-health as tool for care has been evaluated for many years and its growth is supported by various evidence of its effectiveness in MS.
 To our knowledge no comprehensive e-health tool exists in Belgium that aims at empowering MS patients from the prodromal to a more advanced disease stage.
 Policy Context And Objective: Following our involvement in the national and regional public health plan "Integrated Care for a better health" (www.integreo.be) via the federal project Chronicopôle, we gave up the ""symptom and discipline-centered"" approach to develop a more integrated one : health promotion tied to the daily life of patients.
 A strong involvement of users in every stages of development of a e-health solution is required to meet their specificities and needs. Placing them at the heart of the thinking process was therefore mandatory.
 Such a design needs a multi-step approach involving: Analysis of user needs, definition of desired functionality and finally, development and testing of acceptability and user experience.
 We partnered with the Wallonia e-health Living Lab (WeLL) for methodological guidance to achieve this. Based on their approach, different workshops were proposed, first to a group of MS patients, but also to a group of health professionals, in order to leave a dichotomous thinking framework.
 Target Population: Any Belgian French speaking person (Dutch translation pending) with MS. Healthcare professionals involved in MS patients care.
 Highlights: Two workshops (n = 11 patients) were organized in collaboration with the WeLL. They took place at their offices and focused on fundamental needs/issues in care pathways of patients. Furthermore, a specific workshop for health professionals was also organized. From the aggregation of these two expertises emerged the architecture and functionalities of our tool.
 The application content was determined as follow: patient record, documentation (developing literacy), peer’s good tips, toolbox (exercises, questionnaires), diary and logbook, directory (personal and relevant resources).
 During the IT development, all the patients/partners were able to give their opinion and validate each step via a functional analysis of each module. Finally, about 20 patients tested the application during a period of 3 months. Final modifications were made before publishing on the main application stores.
 Conclusion: MyApp4SEP is fully developed and available for free on the Play Store and the App Store starting from november 2022.
 Co-creation leads our project and aims at maximize health literacy by putting as first objective coping with real world caveats of our patients.
 The goal for the next few years is evolve the app based on patients/users feedbacks and propositions but also by developing partnership with other teams working in a "patient-centered" approach among other chronic diseases.

Applying Implementation Frameworks to Health IT Development in Dementia Care: Lessons from the CareHeroes Project

AbstractBackgroundCaregiving and clinical care for people living with dementia (PLWD) is complex and complicated by communication challenges among caregivers and providers (Gaugler et al., 2022; Ruggiano et al. 2012; 2019). These challenges can constrain decision making about treatment options (Hinton et al., 2007; Miller et al., 2016; Wolff et al., 2020) and may contribute to negative mental health outcomes often reported by family caregivers (Gaugler et al., 2022), which disproportionately impact vulnerable caregivers (e.g., underserved racial/ethnic groups, rural caregivers (Abner et al., 2016; Fabius et al., 2020)). Health information technology (HIT) has been identified as a potential solution to communication challenges in dementia care (Ruggiano et al., 2019; Vedel et al., 2013). However, few studies have reported how to effectively integrate new HIT into practice to support provider‐caregiver communication. In this study, a four‐stage implementation science framework (Meyers et al., 2012) was used to integrate a newly developed web‐based application (app) technology, called CareHeroes (Brown et al., 2016), into clinical practice at two memory clinics to promote caregiver‐physician communication. CareHeroes is multi‐functional and allows secure sharing of patient‐related clinical information between caregivers and providers. It also provides education and support, including an educational chatbot that provides tailored, expert feedback to caregiver questions.MethodEarly stages of implementation involved interviews with caregivers and focus groups with clinic providers to develop a clinical workflow integration plan for the new app. Then, the research team collected user data collected through the app during implementation as well as caregiver psychosocial outcome data (e.g., depression, burden) at baseline and 3‐month follow‐up to evaluate implementation.ResultThirty‐six caregivers and eight clinic providers provided qualitative data that informed the clinical workflow integration plan. The same providers and 21 additional caregivers enrolled in the CareHeroes implementation demonstration study. While user data demonstrated that it was feasible for caregivers to share clinical information and engage in self‐support using CareHeroes, expected outcomes were confounded by complications during the COVID‐19 pandemic.ConclusionThrough using the implementation framework, several lessons were learned regarding potential success and challenges in integrating new HIT into clinical care to support dementia care and caregiving.

Economic assessment of the cost of developing a voice assistant for oncology patients

Subject. Voice assistant is a developing digital healthcare tool that arouse great interest due to its ease of use. In the literature, there is insufficient data on its use in oncology, the cost of development, and experience in domestic platforms application. Objectives. The study aims to develop an approach to calculating the cost of creating a skill in the Alice voice assistant system for patients with skin cancer. Methods. The experience of creating a skill for patients with breast cancer is taken as a basis. We used the methodology for calculating the cost of software product under the calculation method by item. To estimate actual programming costs, we conducted a timekeeping experiment. The model contained 50 scripts with 50,000 lines of code. To evaluate the productivity of IT developers, we applied the volume of software texts, and the number of lines was taken as the number of operators. Results. The total cost of developing a skill for "Alice" is 2,097,190.76 RUB, including the salary fund of the core staff (61%), overhead costs (33.2%), electricity cost (0.2%), depreciation (0.2%). In the total share of labor cost of the core staff, programming costs prevail (61%). Conclusions. The approach to cost calculation for creating a skill for "Alice" is proposed for the first time. We simulated and predicted costs of developing a voice assistant for patients with skin cancer. The development of the skill scenario and the format of the dialog tree are critical and require creating a working group of specialists who contact patients at different stages. The development of the "Alice" skill using the Python can be classified as medium type of complexity, as model solutions and standard algorithms are used in the process.
