Analysis of the Gulf of California cannonball jellyfish fishery as a complex system

Cannonball jellyfish has become the target of an important seasonal fishery in the Gulf of California. Research has focused mainly on biological and management aspects, yet linkages and dynamics between social and ecological components have received less attention. Based on an analysis of stakeholder perceptions and its comparison with available quantitative data, this study provides a holistic view of the fishery and its actors as part of a complex adaptive system. Stakeholders include artisanal fishers, owners of improvised and permanent processing plants, foreign buyers and funders, local managers, Mexican management entities, women, and Indigenous communities. Policy guidelines and management actions must address sustainability within various dimensions as understood by those interviewed: social equity, economic benefits, and environmental responsibility. To transition to sustainability, a transdisciplinary research approach is needed to provide management advice and to strengthen fishery governance through co-management decision-making strategies.

Neighborhood farm density, types of agriculture, and depressive symptoms among older farmers: a cross-sectional study

BackgroundFarmers may have an increased risk for poor mental health. In connection with this, factors specific to the neighborhood environment such as farm density and the type of agriculture, might be important for mental wellbeing. In this study we aimed to clarify the cross-level interaction on depressive symptoms between farm density at the neighborhood level by type of agriculture and the longest occupation of individuals (farmer or non-farmer).MethodsData came from the 2016 wave of the Japan Gerontological Evaluation Study (JAGES) that were linked to governmental agricultural data. Information was analyzed from 147,549 respondents aged 65 years or older, residing in 1024 neighborhoods in 39 municipalities. We calculated farm (crop or animal husbandry) density at the neighborhood level, dividing the number of agricultural management entities by the population. Three-level (individual, neighborhood, and municipality) Poisson regression analysis was used to calculate the prevalence rate ratios of depressive symptoms.ResultsThe prevalence of depressive symptoms was higher among individuals whose longest occupation was farmer compared to non-farmer. The estimated probability of depressive symptoms by a cross-level interaction analysis showed that among farmers of both genders, those who were residing in neighborhoods where the farm density was low had a higher prevalence of depressive symptoms, regardless of the type of agriculture. The slope of the relationship between depressive symptoms and animal husbandry farm density varied by occupation, with a higher prevalence of depressive symptoms observed in male farmers compared to male non-farmers.ConclusionsThe high prevalence of depressive symptoms among farmers in neighborhoods with a low farm density may reflect a scarcity of formal and informal social support in such communities. The health effects of the neighborhood environment on farmers, such as farm density, which may vary by the type of agriculture, should be further researched.

Seismic hazard assessment (SHA) in Sabah using the international monitoring system (IMS) data of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO): The preliminary findings

Sabah is the most seismically active state in Malaysia where it has recorded higher number of moderate seismological activities for the past decades, as compared to other states in the country. The seismicity map of Sabah shows the presence of two zones of distinctive seismicity, which are Ranau in Kota Kinabalu and Lahad Datu in the southeast of Sabah. The International Monitoring System (IMS) network setup by the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO) has successfully detected seismic events occurred in Sabah for the past decades. This paper aims at presenting the preliminary findings of seismic hazard assessment (SHA) in Sabah using the IMS data. This study utilised seismic data from the CTBTO International Data Centre and then analysed to identify the related seismicity parameters including magnitude, depth, and intensity. The Extreme Value Distribution Type-I has been applied to evaluate the maximum magnitude data, where the results of analysis have enabled the quantification of seismic hazard in Sabah in terms of recurrence periods and probabilities of occurrence of earthquake at any given magnitude. Consequently, the findings from this study could be to assess the impact of seismic events in Sabah as well as assist relevant entities in development planning and disaster management.

Energy Supply System Development Management Mechanisms from the Standpoint of Efficient Use of Energy Resources

The paper discusses the problem of improving the mechanisms for managing the development of electricity and heat supply systems in regions with the aim of increasing the efficiency of energy resources use in the context of liberalization of economic relations in the energy sector. On the basis of the considered methods and the compiled system of management efficiency criteria, the structural and functional decomposition of the energy complex development management system at the territorial level was carried out. The mismatch of the power system control system was revealed, caused by the complication of the control system and the composition of the decision-makers. Improved models for managing the development of electricity and heat supply systems in the country’s regions are proposed, allowing to take into account modern trends in the expansion of the use of market mechanisms for managing territorial energy and to ensure a balance of interests of management entities at various organizational levels. For their implementation, organizational mechanisms have been developed that describe the interaction of territorial government bodies and territorial generating companies in the implementation of investment programs. The proposed mechanisms for managing territorial energy allow in market conditions to fully use the production potential and incentives for the development of territorial generating companies, which creates conditions for reducing management costs and implementing the goals of state energy policy.

Design Guidelines for Topology Management in Software-Defined Vehicular Networks

Software-Defined Vehicular Networks (SDVNs) have been a vital component to various radio access technologies that supports massive data loads in various security and infotainment applications. SDVNs elevate the constraints of static hardware network devices to programmable units and provide a global view of the network's status and a common interface between varied radio access technologies. However, having a logically centralized control unit comes with several challenges, including bottleneck issues and densification issues. The distributed control plane appears as a possible alternative to the centralized one yet raises questions concerning where to deploy control units, how many SDN controllers are needed in a given network structure, and when to migrate switches or change controllers. Therefore, the development of an efficient topology management entity is an important aspect that needs to be addressed. In this article, we define the main components necessary to develop and design an efficient SDVN topology management architecture. We evaluate the current solutions and methods of controllers' deployment and assignment for software-defined vehicle networks. We then discuss several challenges, design guidelines, open issues, and future directions for research related to the development of future adaptive software-defined vehicular networks.

A Study on the Development Scheme and Strategies for Advancement of Cold Chain System of Fruits and Vegetables in Garak Wholesale Market

지구 온난화로 인해 2020년 여름 54일간의 긴 장마와 38∼40℃에 이르는 고온다습한 날씨는 가락시장에 출하된 배추&#8901;양배추&#8901;파&#8901;피망&#8901;딸기&#8901;버섯 등 청과물이 쉽게 짓무르거나 부패되어 손실 피해가 늘어날 수 있다. 반대로 &#8211;15∼-20℃로 하강하는 혹한의 날씨는 가림막 시설이 설치된 청과물 경매장의 내부 온도가 &#8211;5℃ 이하로 떨어져 상품이 어는 피해가 발생한다. 이외에도 가락시장은 오픈한지 35년 이상 경과되어 시설이 노후화되었음은 물론, 사방이 오픈된 개방형 시설로 각종 해충과 쥐 및 먼지 등을 통제할 수 없어, 품질&#8901;위생관리 측면에서 시장은 여러 문제와 한계가 있었다. 그러므로 농산물의 저온(정온)관리가 가능한 폐쇄형 시설을 도입하는 등의 가락시장 도매권역 시설현대화사업추진(2021∼31년)에 따른 “가락시장 청과물 저온유통체계 선진화 과제와 발전 방안”에 대하여 고찰하는 것이 본 연구의 목적이다. 산지는 지난 ‘10년부터 현재까지 저온저장시설과 저온차량의 구입을 지원하는 저온유통체계구축사업의 추진으로 비교적 양호한 저온시설 확충을 보이고 있다. 그러나 농산물의 절반 이상이 도매시장을 통해 유통되는 현실에서 가락시장의 저온유통체계 미비는 품질하락과 안전성을 떨어뜨리고 식품손실을 유발하여 높은 유통비용의 원인이 되고 있다. 도매시장이 저온유통체계를 구축해야 하는 이유는 첫째 산지와 도매시장간(경매장→중매인점포→소매상) 상호연계성 없는 콜드체인 추진은 일관된 온도관리의 실효성을 떨어뜨리기 때문이며, 둘째 도매시장의 취급량 감소에 대비한 산지 조달처 개발 및 납품처 다양화가 필요하며, 셋째 일관된 저온유통으로 품질ㆍ위생관리를 위한 유통주체들의 노력이 절실함은 물론, 온ㆍ오프라인 유통업체들 간 신선식품의 판매경쟁이 벌어지고 있는 시대에 고품질ㆍ안심할 수 있는 차별화된 농산품을 공급하는 스마트 시장으로 활성화가 필요하기 때문이다. 도매시장의 저온유통시설 확충을 위한 설비도입의 과제는 공통과제와 경매장 공조 효율화를 위한 과제<표 10> 및 저온화ㆍICT기술 고도화 과제에 대하여 살펴보았다. 나아가 가락시장의 저온유통체계 구축 고도화 방안으로 HACCPㆍISO22000 인증제도 도입으로 신선식품의 품질ㆍ위생관리에 대한 인식 제고와 교육ㆍ훈련이 필요함과 일관된 선도(온도)관리를 위해 유통주체들 간 긴밀한 협업이 중요하다는 점을 지적하였다. 전국 최대의 도매시장인 가락시장은 신선도(≒시간)라는 제약 속에 수급균형을 통해 거래를 실현하는 운영상의 어려움이 있다. 가락시장 청과물의 저온유통 고도화 방안을 4가지로 요약하면 다음과 같다. 첫째 저온유통 시스템 기술(H/WㆍS/W)의 고도화 방안, 둘째 신선식품 저온유통은 3가지의 운영조건에서 운용될 필요가 있으며<표 17>, 셋째 상온품 대비 저온품 차별화로 저온품의 가격보상제 추진의 필요성ㆍ한국 실정에 적합한 에너지 저감형 저온유통체계의 도입ㆍ저온물류비 저감화(low cost operations of cold chain)목표의 실현 및 신선식품 저온유통비용 산정을 위한 통계DB 정비가 필요, 넷째 지속가능 발전 목표(SDGs)가 국내외적으로 중시되는 환경에서 가락시장은 친환경에 대한 배려(에너지 사용 저감, CO2 배출ㆍ쓰레기 발생억제)가 그 어느 때보다 요청됨을 살펴보았다. 가락시장의 저온유통체계 선진화를 통해 기대되는 효과는 <표 18>에서 보듯이 유통기한 연장에 따른 기존 10∼35%의 식품손실 감소와 공급가능 시장범위 확장에 따른 판매기회 증대, 생산지와 소비지간 연계 역할의 수행으로 가치창출 및 품질관리의 강화로 위험회피를 통한 거래처로부터 신뢰확보 등을 들 수 있다. 이상으로 살펴본 본 연구의 주요 성과를 토대로 향후 과제에서 연구의 저변이 확대된다면, 국내 공영도매시장의 시설현대화사업과 관련해 정비계획수립의 가이드 역할을 할 것으로 기대된다.Due to global warming, long rainy season and hot humid summer of South Korea can cause fruits and vegetables to rot. Furthmore, in winter, the product freezes due to cold weather, which can drop to -15 to -20 degrees Celsius, resulting in lower value. Garak Wholesale Market has limitations in terms of quality and hygiene, such as an open system without control over infectious sources as well as old facilities. The purpose of this research is to examine the challenges and development of the cold chain system of fresh products in the Garak Wholesale Market by modernizing the wholesale area facilities. The market has shown relatively good expansion of cold chain system. However, since more than half of agricultural products are distributed through the Garak wholesale market, it is still insufficient to meet the expectation. In order to increase the effectiveness of offline temperature management, the development and diversification of suppliers is necessary. This study explained the common issues of equipment installation to expand cold chain system in the market and sophistication of ICT technology. Through this study, it was confirmed that the introduction the HACCPㆍISO22000 certification system for education and training, and raising awareness on the quality and hygiene management of fresh food is essential. In addition, it pointed out the importance of close collaboration between distribution entities for consistent freshness management. Garak Wholesale Market, the largest one in Korea, has several operational challenges to maintain freshness of the product. First, the cold chain logistics technology (H/WㆍS/W) must be advanced. Second, the cold chain logistics of fresh food must meet strict operating condition. Third, it is necessary to promote a price compensation system for the products to differentiate from ordinary ones. Fourth, it is also necessary to maintain a statistical database for realization of the goal of low cost cold chain system. Finally, energy saving approaches and eco-friendly facilities which are suitable for the domestic circumstances should be introduced. As shown in <Table 18>, the cold chain system in the Garak wholesale market is expected to reduce food loss by 10 to 35 percent. At the same time, it increases sales opportunities by expanding the range of supply markets and strengthening quality control by avoiding risks. The result of this study is expected to serve as a guide for the establishment of maintenance plans for facility modernization projects in the domestic public wholesale market.

Climate Change Impacts on Salt Marsh Blue Carbon, Nitrogen and Phosphorous Stocks and Ecosystem Services

Salt marshes are valuable ecosystems, as they provide food, shelter, and important nursery areas for fish and macroinvertebrates, and a wide variety of ecosystem services for human populations. These ecosystem services heavily rely on the floristic composition of the salt marshes with different species conferring different service values and different adaptation and resilience capacities towards ecosystem stressors. Blue carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorous stocks are no exception to this, and rely on the interspecific differences in the primary production metabolism and physiological traits. Furthermore, these intrinsic physiological characteristics also modulate the species response to any environmental stressor, such as the ones derived from ongoing global changes. This will heavily shape transitional ecosystem services, with significant changes of the ecosystem value of the salt marshes in terms of cultural, provisioning, regulating, and supporting ecosystem services, with a special emphasis on the possible alterations of the blue carbon, nitrogen, and phosphorous stocks retained in these key environments. Thus, the need to integrate plant physiological characteristics and feedbacks towards the expected climate change-driven stressors becomes evident to accurately estimate the ecosystem services of the salt marsh community, and transfer these fundamental services into economic assets, for a fluid communication of the ecosystems value to stakeholders, decision and policy makers, and environmental management entities.

Decompensated Cirrhosis as Presentation of LKM1/LC1 Positive Type 2 Autoimmune Hepatitis in Adulthood. A Rare Clinical Entity of Difficult Management

Background: Autoimmune hepatitis (AIH) is a chronic and aggressive liver disease that rapidly evolves into cirrhosis and end-stage liver disease if not timely diagnosed and treated with immunosuppressive therapy. AIH is classified into type 1 and type 2 according to the autoantibody pattern, with smooth muscle antibodies and/or antinuclear antibodies as serological markers of AIH-1, while antiliver cytosol antibody type 1 and/or antiliver/kidney microsomal antibody type 1 characterize type 2 AIH, which mainly affects children, including infants, and adolescents. Case Summary: We describe a case of type 2 AIH, clinically onset in a 34-year-old woman with decompensated cirrhosis. Only a thorough analysis of the autoantibody profile allowed for a diagnosis of an AIH-2 evolved into cirrhosis. The patient received a moderate corticosteroid therapy without achieving optimal disease control. We discuss the controversial decision of whether or not to treat the patient with immunosuppressive therapy, which should be balanced with the potential risk of infectious and other complications. A review of the literature on the management of patients with autoimmune cirrhosis is also presented. Conclusions: AIH-2 can be clinically onset in adult patients with cirrhosis and its complications, without being preceded by major clinical signs. Due to the difficult management of cirrhosis with immunosuppressive treatments, a patient-tailored strategy with a case-by-case approach is needed to prevent major complications such as infections, potentially precluding liver transplantation the only curative therapy.

Performance Analysis of Real Estate Management Entities Based on DEA Model and BP Neural Network Model

Based on the financial report data of Listed Companies in 2015 and taking profitability as the criterion, this paper selects 40 real estate enterprises as samples, and analyzes the operation performance of the real estate industry by using data envelopment analysis method and BP neural network model. The results show that the scale benefit of the industry still exists, but it is no longer significant, and the development mode of the industry is in place. In the period of obvious change, the operation and management of real estate enterprises are becoming more and more mature, and the optimal allocation of resources has been basically achieved at the macro level of resource utilization, but the industry needs to be further improved in fine management, practical human resources management, supervisory management and other aspects. Excellent management team is the key of success in enterprises development.

CBLM: Cluster-Based Location Management for 5G Small Cell Network Under Stochastic Environment

Internet of Things (IoT) applications are connecting several Mobile Stations (MSs) to form the Mobile Communication Network (MCN). MSs are moving through macrocell and picocell recurrently due to the discontinuous deployment of the picocell over the macrocell. Each time they cross the cell boundary, they need to register with the Mobility Management Entity (MME). It incurs a high registration cost and elevates the signaling overhead ratio. To reduce the signaling overhead ratio, earlier techniques were attempted either by forming closed subscriber groups or by delaying the registration process, but that may create inconsistency in user location information. With this motivation, in this paper, MSs with similar mobility pattern which are moving from the picocell to macrocell, are grouped in clusters. A representative MS, called Cluster Representative (CR), performs the location management task on behalf of the whole cluster. The stochastic process has been employed to analyze the model. This study proposes Cluster-Based Location Management (CBLM) scheme and compares it with two state-of-the-art algorithms, named Group Mobility Management (GMM) and Closed Subscriber Group (CSG). On average, the CBLM scheme exhibits approximately 70% better performance than the CSG scheme whereas, 30% better than the GMM algorithm to mitigate the signaling overhead.

METHODS OF ACCOUNTING FOR THE PROCESSES OF REPRODUCTION OF FIXED ASSETS OF THE ENTERPRISE AS A SOURCE OF INTERNAL INVESTMENT FOR THE ENTERPRISE

The article is devoted to the research of current state of amortization policy in Ukraine. The article examines depreciation reforms carried out starting from 1997 up to the present time and makes the conclusion that they only brought the national depreciation policy closer to the countries with the market economy, but the real accumulation of funds for fixed assets was not achieved. Consequently, depreciation allowances are not only unable to stimulate the development of the economic entity, and are not able to even provide simple maintenance of basic (even manufacturing) facilities, which leads to their depreciation, and money for renovation or repair is not. In the work is stated that the use of a particular method of accrual of depreciation of fixed assets is appropriate to choose depending on the corrosiveness of the management functions, the objectivity, etc. The result will be to achieve the maximum effect from the application of the appropriate method of accrual of depreciation. The end result will be willingness of the subjects of management to the production of products (services). Examining current amortization policy, which was formed at the present stage of economic development in our state, continues to be ineffective. In our view, the current amortization policy does not fulfill its main function - motivation to the real accumulation of funds for renewal of worn and morally and technically outdated main assets of the enterprise. Today no company is not able during the regulatory period of service of fixed assets to offset their costs for their renewal, but for the need for renewal. We believe that the feasibility of choosing a method of accrual of depreciation must be carried out taking into account the correlation for the management functions, the objectivity and feasibility of use by a particular entity of management. Our proposed mechanism for selecting the optimal depreciation policy by the management of the enterprise, based on the real accumulation of "real" money can be a source of internal investment for renewal and renovation of basic assets of the state. The obtained results of the research is relevant in an environment where the deterioration of the basic equipment of enterprises is sometimes up to 90%, and the necessary funds for renovation and repair of the basic equipment of the enterprise.

МАТЕМАТИЧЕСКАЯ МОДЕЛЬ ИНФОРМАЦИОННОЙ ПОДДЕРЖКИ ОПЕРАТИВНЫХ ГРУПП ПОЖАРНО-СПАСАТЕЛЬНОГО ГАРНИЗОНА

Support for management decision-making in emergencies (firefighting), in uncertain conditions of its occurrence and uncertainty of its development is necessary for the organization of optimal distribution of the forces and resources of operational units involved in firefighting, and the knowledge of the Manager. The process of our research is limited only to the case of fire. Taking into account the fact that the data in the fire-extinguishing card does not always coincide with the state of the object where the fire occurred and the unpredictability of the direction of fire propagation, the decision-maker in this situation will organize work to obtain reliable information. These features allow us to consider the object where the fire occurred as a complex system. In this case, the main difficulty of information and analytical support for operational groups, as a management entity, is that at the first stage, the decision-maker in the operational group, without having complete reliable information, organizes its clarification. With the correct organization of their work, the task force ensures maximum efficiency of using the units of the Ministry of emergencies of Russia, when solving their combat tasks. At the same time, it can collect information about an emergency when it receives a notification of its occurrence, as well as on the way of the operational units to the specified area. The issues that determine the development of documents in different periods of the operational situation are considered, and the actions of the decision-maker in the operational group during fire extinguishing are highlighted separately. In this mathematical model, in which the transition of the system from the state of “fire occurrence” to the state of “fire extinguished” is modeled, the properties of a continuous Markov process are used. The solution of Kolmogorov’s system of differential equations determines the probability that characterizes the competence of the decision-maker in the task force.

Physicians should be aware of this entity for correct initial diagnosis and accurate management.

Формування знаннєвих ресурсів системи управління соціально-економічним розвитком регіонів

The processes of formation of knowledge resource of specialists and managers of the regional management system are investigated. It is noted that in modern economic conditions, the knowledge resource is considered as the highest value, the quality of which does not decrease over time, but increases unlike all other types of resources, and without which no process of life in society is not carried out. The research focuses on the knowledge resource of specialists and managers of the management system of socio-economic development of the regions, which are the basic administrative-territorial units, the development of which ensures the development of the country as a whole. The formation of knowledge transfer processes and the organization of their mastery in higher education institutions are considered in relation to the completeness and compliance of this knowledge with the needs of regional management and economic entities of their managed systems. The needs and the list of priority program questions concerning the received knowledge are considered on a professional orientation of use of a knowledge resource. It is proposed to consider the process of mastering it by stages, content of programs, job and qualification requirements for specialists and managers to manage the development of regions. The logistic chain of formation of the process of knowledge acquisition as a knowledge resource of future specialists and managers of the management system is considered taking into account the content of needs of job competencies, requirements of positions, directions, programs and development plans of managed systems. The need to revise the methodology of organization of timely training, retraining and advanced training of specialists by integrating theoretical and practical content of training is emphasized. In the process of training it is proposed to use innovative teaching methods, trainings, master classes with the use of information base on existing and future positions of the planned employment. Requirements for wider application in the process of providing knowledge of smart education opportunities, benchmarking technologies, foresight, methods of innovative and strategic games and gaining experience in teamwork are identified. Suggestions for further development of knowledge management system and accumulation of knowledge resources of regions, technologies of formation and mastering of methods of its use and mastering are given, presented in author's realization of target preparation, retraining and advanced training in system of professional training of heads of system of management of regions.

Інституційне забезпечення стратегування в економічній системі держави

The initiation and implementation of the strategizing process in a country should be accompanied by a comprehensively developed, high-quality state mechanism of strategic management. The existence of an institutional mechanism, which provides for the creation of organization structures in the public authorities system, the division of their functions and responsibilities, clearly defined interaction of structures designed to achieve common strategic development goals, is a prerequisite for a successful strategic process in the country. Providing institutional support for strategizing in a complex socio-economic system, which is still developing, requires coordination and balance in the activities of all the strategic management entities, thus becoming relevant in the current conditions of Ukraine’s development. The article aims at studying the structure and functions of the executive authorities in the field of strategic management. Recommendations have been developed to improve the institutional support for the strategic process in the country by implementing the EU institutional organization principles, designed by the ESDN, and the PDCA Cycle in public administration. The author identifies Ukraine’s strategizing participants; develops recommendations for supplementing the public authorities’ functions in the strategizing field; suggests creating an organizational structure which would support strategizing; and creates a consistent institutional support scheme helping to implement strategizing at the national level

СУЧАСНІ ОБРИСИ МЕНЕДЖМЕНТУ Й АДМІНІСТРУВАННЯ КУЛЬТУРНОЇ СФЕРИ УКРАЇНИ

The cultural sphere as a generator of social development, economic and political potential of a state, its status and relations within international arena requires rapid and qualitative changes in the system of public administration. Three spheres of state sovereignty - political, economic and cultural - are called timeless and important. The identified problems and factors of their crisis state actualize a need to modernize the state management system in terms of functional, resource, legal and communicative support. A requirement to improve quality and efficiency of public management and administration, its publicity and effectiveness at all levels of the system is caused by the following conditions: low quality of services of the bureaucratic apparatus; society's distrust of the government due to ineffectiveness of its decisions, and in some cases - inaction, corruption and bureaucracy; initial stages of decentralization and partnership development between the state in person of government officials and society, business and local authorities. A structural and functional model of management entities that influence and determine the policy and state of a cultural sphere has been developed. The weight of each subject of management system in terms of their functions and tasks is significant, nevertheless current market environment highlights a need for their joint participation in solving industry problems. It is proved that to ensure a development of cultural sphere introduction of public-private partnership as a tool to support culture among existing mechanisms of country's modernization is relevant. Partnership involving public authorities (legislative, executive and judicial branches), local governments, civil society and business is aimed at long-term mutually beneficial cooperation, agreed by the parties taking into account the size and weight of power, influence of parties, resources, experience, competencies and subordination, risk sharing etc. in order to implement socially significant projects, ensuring economic benefits of all participants. An auxiliary mechanism for attracting additional resources, sharing functions, responsibilities and risks, exchange and sharing of experiences and knowledge are not yet decisive benefits of such partnership.

Why Service Science matters in approaching a "resilient" Society

The Service Science lens favours a transdisciplinary approach to the study and interpretation of a huge number of phenomena. This article explores the applicability of this lens in understanding how resilience can emerge as a characteristic of the service systems at a city, or a district, region, or society level. This paper argues that by matching insights from the Service Science perspective with recent advances in System Thinking, a common and cross-cultural interpretation on resilience may arise, focusing on empirical grounds, fundamental pillars for every country. The paper reviews the understanding of resilience using four macro areas, to specify "where" the resilience’s transdisciplinary roots can be traced. We are formulating four main assumptions based on the ten foundational concepts of Service Science. Further, we argue how these assumptions can really help in understanding, from a multidisciplinary point of view, how different competences and perspectives foster resiliency in Smart cities. We propose a new service design artefact, the Smart Service Model Canvas (SSModC), as a tool for designing, realizing, and maintaining Smart City services. We apply this new tool in a case study to demonstrate some aspects of special services in Smart cities that resilient entities should have and acquire. Our findings may help in addressing the challenge of resilient and sustainable services, as a response for the cognitive resilience of Society in its induced progression. Therefore, they may constitute common knowledge for city management entities in developing complex services with multiple value propositions.
