SSCM: a secured approach to supply chain management with control management using blowfish optimization

ABSTRACT This study examines the importance of enterprise information systems that link several corporate organisations to share information about diverse products under high security settings. The primary goal of the proposed strategy is to create a direct link between product demand and production to minimise the impact of rising costs. The research motive to make a connection cannot be resolved without suitable data that shows both quantity and quality in each organisation unit. The suggested method is designed to deliver accurate data to authorised end users while preventing any data exposure to unauthorised users. Security cryptographic keys are utilised to create a data control method, and the blowfish algorithm is integrated with the projected system model to segregate data blocks for enterprise systems. Four scenarios are considered where the results show that by using the integrated model, it is feasible to increase the number of authorisation units to 88%, compared to the 75% attained with the current approach.

Dynamic microservice placement in multi-tier Fog networks

Fog computing extends Cloud-like infrastructure to the Edge, advancing Industrial Internet-of-Things (IIoT) applications in which parts of business-oriented enterprise systems, decoupled via fine-grained microservices, can be deployed in Fog networks in proximity to sensor devices. It boosts the responsiveness to IIoT events significantly where timely decision-making and actions are required, particularly for problematic trends and anomalies. However, microservice placement is a non-trivial problem in IIoT settings, given the dynamic occurrence of different IIoT events and variable resource needs of microservices against resource-constrained, heterogeneous, and distributed Fog devices. The cost of matching and deploying microservices in real-time, highly dynamic, and contentious settings can easily exceed the benefit of just-in-time Edge deployments. Current studies largely focus on managing the microservice placement from Cloud servers and offloading to the Cloud when Fog devices are resource-deficient. Yet, there is a lack of research focusing on efficient Fog resource use and managing the placement at the edge to improve the responsiveness. The complexity increases when multiple inter-dependent microservices with similar priorities are required to be placed on the same Fog devices. To mitigate this, we develop a tiered framework for dynamic microservice placement, in which costly resource decision-making for microservices is dedicated to Master Fog devices and Citizen Fog devices are exclusively assigned to executing microservice requests. Firstly, we implement a priority-based algorithm in each Master Fog device to identify the high-priority Edge-required microservices. Secondly, we sort the Fog devices according to their resource availability and place the microservices based on their priority and dependencies. Thirdly, we implement the strategies for microservice placement, scaling and request escalation in each Master Fog, managing a small number of Citizen Fog devices. These exempt the Citizen Fog devices from common resource and communication management responsibilities and enable them to allocate more resources to Edge-required microservices with a higher number of instances. Finally, we implement and evaluate our framework in a simulated Fog environment. The results outperform state-of-the-art frameworks in terms of efficient resource utilisation, resulting in reduced Cloud dependency by one-third compared to other approaches and average application execution time by 65–70%.

Improvement of financial management tools of agricultural enterprises

Financial management of agricultural enterprises, like any other direction of managerial activity, is a complex system consisting of many interdependent elements that collectively determine the financial stability of the subject. The authors defined the principles of financial management in the system of management activities: the principle of complexity after the adoption of management decisions, the principle of variability of approaches to the development of management decisions, the principle of dynamism of management decisions, the principle of compliance of management decisions with the strategic goals of the enterprise. It has been established that the main goal, the achievement of which is aimed at managerial decisions within the framework of financial management, is to guarantee the financial stability of agricultural enterprises based on the organization of the competent distribution of financial resources, their use and movement, and that at the current stage of the development of economic relations, an important factor in increasing the competitiveness of agricultural enterprises enterprises are using digital products that allow automating the management system of business entities. It was found that in order to increase the efficiency of the financial management system, agricultural enterprises need to improve financial resources management tools, one of which is the implementation of the Enterprise Resource Planning System (ERP-system), which automates management activities. The use of such software products will allow: at the enterprise level – to improve the general financial condition and timely neutralization of threats capable of weakening the financial stability of entities; at the level of the national economy – to guarantee the financial security of the state. Improving the financial management system of agricultural enterprises based on the implementation of the ERP software product will allow to increase the effectiveness of management decisions in the field of financial resource management and, accordingly, significantly strengthen their financial stability.

Adaptive Processing of Camera Video Stream with Limitations on the Network Data Transmission Bandwidth

Video surveillance systems, cameras, and video stream processing are actively used in many enterprises as a monitoring and control tool for regular and emergency situations, as well as staff activities. The application of intelligent algorithms allows tracking and minimizing operator errors, but these approaches are highly sensitive to the quality of the original video, presence of noise, and low resolution. On the other hand, such video surveillance systems may be limited by network bandwidth. Therefore, this work considers an adaptive video stream processing algorithm that ensures efficient operation of computer vision and object recognition methods while minimizing the amount of transmitted information within network bandwidth constraints. The proposed algorithm addresses the task of determining boundary conditions that ensure the functionality of object recognition algorithms with the least amount of video stream. Corresponding experimental studies were conducted to determine the minimum values of frame resolution and video bitrate. The algorithm was tested in organizing video surveillance at warehouse complexes. The obtained results can be used in developing decision support systems for enterprises in various industries requiring intelligent processing of large volumes of data.

Research on Optimization of Financial Performance Evaluation of Energy Enterprises under the Background of Low-Carbon Economy

The development of human society and the production and operation activities of enterprises have brought about global warming, resulting in frequent natural disasters. It has become the consensus of all countries in the world to develop a green and low-carbon economy. Under this background, enterprises, as the main body of economic activities, especially energy industry enterprises, should optimize and upgrade the traditional production and operation mode with high pollution, high consumption, and low output to a high-efficiency and low-pollution mode, and pay attention to the co-ordinated development of economic benefits, social benefits, and ecological benefits. Financial performance evaluation indicators have become the main basis for senior leaders of energy industry enterprises to make decisions and evaluate the low-carbon economic benefits of enterprises. This paper constructs a set of financial evaluation index systems of energy industry enterprises under the background of a low-carbon economy from four dimensions: profitability, asset quality, debt risk, and business growth. The analytic hierarchy process (AHP) is used to measure the comprehensive contribution of financial indicators of low-carbon production and operation. The purpose of this study is to provide scientific financial management decisions for energy enterprises to reduce costs and increase the efficiency and low-carbon operation under the background of a low-carbon economy. The research results show that the comprehensive evaluation index system after the traditional financial evaluation index of energy industry enterprises is integrated with the evaluation index of a low-carbon economy can help enterprises make more correct and effective financial decisions in the process of survival, development, and growth, and, at the same time, the financial evaluation index of a low-carbon economy should pay more attention to the indicators with a higher comprehensive contribution, so as to effectively promote the low-carbon operation efficiency of enterprise production, management, and sales. Compared with other research results, this paper innovatively constructs a financial management decision-making index system for measuring the low-carbon operation of energy enterprises in theory, which has important value in guiding energy enterprises to reduce costs and increase the efficiency and low-carbon operation in practice.

Analysis of the Impact of Globalization Trends in the Digital Economy on Business Management and Administration Systems of Enterprises

Aim. This study aims to investigate the impact of globalization trends on the business management and administration systems. Methodology. The scoping review of the literature included 123 articles through desk research and in-house material. Upon categorizing typologies as qualitative, quantitative, or mixed, an assessment was made regarding the performance and consequences of globalization from 1990 to 2022. Results. Developing country managers are more likely to depend on international sales as a means to augment revenue, due to the greater saturation of sales in developed markets. Developed economies focus on advanced, possibly automated production methods, whereas developing nations employ the digital economy to compete in less automated industries. This creates a more specialized global market..E-commerce in the digital economy makes it easier for developing nations to enter the global market and reach a global audience. In their pursuit of financial gain, corporations based in affluent nations are more likely to employ sophisticated production methods, while those situated in developing countries are more likely to utilize less advanced ones. A number of prevalent issues and trends—including economics, politics, emerging markets, corporate social responsibility, and emerging markets—were recognized as critical for the development of global markets. While past research has focused on globalization's effects on developed economies, this study examines emerging country managers' unique difficulties and opportunities. The emphasis on expanding international sales and potential manufacturing process reduction can inform management approaches in similar situations. Conclusion. The recommendations underscore the critical necessity for further investigation into the aforementioned impacts across diverse economies, ranging from developing to developed. Although this study encountered difficulties due to inconsistent and limited data, it established a strong foundation for subsequent investigations in the field through the application of operationalization, methodologies, and analyses discovered in the business literature.

Reflections on the Construction of Strategic Performance Management System in Chinese Manufacturing Enterprises

In the surge of global economic integration, China's manufacturing industry is poised at the forefront of a transformational upgrade. Beyond the hum of production lines, the vital pulse lies within the robust rhythm of Strategic Performance Management Systems (SPMS). Yet, studies indicate that despite China's manufacturing sector advancing towards "intelligent manufacturing" and innovation, there are numerous areas within strategic performance management systems that urgently demand enhancement. In the coming years, for China's manufacturing industry to secure higher value positioning within the global supply chain and assert dominance in niche markets, it must seize the nerve center of strategic performance management. Confronted with a series of challenges including slowing growth, rising costs, and tightening environmental regulations, manufacturing enterprises urgently need to construct an efficient and precise performance management system. However, in reality, many enterprises still exhibit a weak strategic execution, lacking a systematic performance orientation and employee incentive mechanisms, often resulting in a disconnect between strategic objectives and performance management. The factors affecting the effective implementation of strategic performance management within enterprises are intricate. Internal factors primarily encompass the rigidity of corporate culture, bottlenecks in leadership style and employee engagement, as well as hindrances in information sharing and communication mechanisms. External factors involve the volatility of market environments, unclear policy directions, and intensifying international competition. The formulation of a comprehensive performance management system undoubtedly holds profound significance for optimizing resource allocation, reinforcing core competitiveness, and enhancing strategic responsiveness.

Linking information technology use with corporate entrepreneurship: The mediation role of openness to external knowledge

AbstractFirms are increasingly applying multiple information technologies (ITs) to pursue corporate entrepreneurship. However, how different ITs can be leveraged collectively to achieve corporate entrepreneurship remains largely underexplored. Drawing upon the knowledge‐based view, we develop an integrative theoretical model to delineate how three types of commonly deployed IT (i.e. organisational enterprise systems use, organisational social media use and top management team social media use) can be used collectively in the knowledge acquisition and utilisation processes to achieve corporate entrepreneurship. Specifically, we posit that organisational IT uses (i.e. organisational enterprise systems use and organisational social media use) enhance openness to external knowledge in the knowledge acquisition process, which in turn serves as the mediation mechanism to channel organisational IT uses into corporate entrepreneurship. Moreover, top management team IT use (i.e. top management team social media use) shapes the effect of openness to external knowledge on corporate entrepreneurship in the knowledge utilisation process. The empirical analysis using multi‐respondent survey data from 1252 managers in 313 firms provides strong support for the proposed model. This study contributes to the information systems research on how IT influences corporate entrepreneurship by distinguishing the roles of organisational enterprise systems use, organisational social media use and top management team social media use in enhancing corporate entrepreneurship through firms' openness to external knowledge.

An Approach to Sustainable Enterprise Resource Planning System Implementation in Small- and Medium-Sized Enterprises

The adoption of sustainable enterprise resource planning systems in small and medium-sized enterprises represents a strategic response to the evolving landscape of corporate responsibility and environmental stewardship. This study seeks to identify which factors determine the level of satisfaction when implementing a sustainable enterprise resource planning system in small- and medium-sized business. A survey was designed to measure managers’ satisfaction with S-ERP implementation in their companies. A multivariate analysis was run to test the factors affecting the level of satisfaction with the implementation. The general results show that the type of module implemented positively and significantly affects the level of satisfaction with S-ERP. One specific result is that the more accounting modules implemented, the more complex the system is, and the more effort is needed to implement the new technology effectively and use it properly. Another result shows that the sales marketing module has an inverse impact on satisfaction with an S-ERP, possibly because this module is complex and difficult to manage. This study contributes significantly to the emerging body of knowledge on S-ERP implementation by seeking to fill the research gap on the interaction between the S-ERP system and user’s satisfaction, focusing on small businesses. Future research directions should delve into the long-term impact of sustainable ERP adoption on SME performance and resilience. Additionally, investigating the effectiveness of government policies in supporting sustainable ERP adoption, along with exploring the actual environmental impact of ERP systems in SMEs, can contribute to advancing our understanding of this dynamic and evolving field.

Use of Electronic Patient Messaging by Pregnant Patients Receiving Prenatal Care at an Academic Health System: Retrospective Cohort Study.

The COVID-19 pandemic accelerated telemedicine and mobile app use, potentially changing our historic model of maternity care. MyChart is a widely adopted mobile app used in health care settings specifically for its role in facilitating communication between health care providers and patients with its messaging function in a secure patient portal. However, previous studies analyzing portal use in obstetric populations have demonstrated significant sociodemographic disparities in portal enrollment and messaging, specifically showing that patients who have a low income and are non-Hispanic Black, Hispanic, and uninsured are less likely to use patient portals. The study aimed to estimate changes in patient portal use and intensity in prenatal care before and during the pandemic period and to identify sociodemographic and clinical disparities that continued during the pandemic. This retrospective cohort study used electronic medical record (EMR) and administrative data from our health system's Enterprise Data Warehouse. Records were obtained for the first pregnancy episode of all patients who received antenatal care at 8 academically affiliated practices and delivered at a large urban academic medical center from January 1, 2018, to July 22, 2021, in Chicago, Illinois. All patients were aged 18 years or older and attended ≥3 clinical encounters during pregnancy at the practices that used the EMR portal. Patients were categorized by the number of secure messages sent during pregnancy as nonusers or as infrequent (≤5 messages), moderate (6-14 messages), or frequent (≥15 messages) users. Monthly portal use and intensity rates were computed over 43 months from 2018 to 2021 before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic shutdown. A logistic regression model was estimated to identify patient sociodemographic and clinical subgroups with the highest portal nonuse. Among 12,380 patients, 2681 (21.7%) never used the portal, and 2680 (21.6%), 3754 (30.3%), and 3265 (26.4%) were infrequent, moderate, and frequent users, respectively. Portal use and intensity increased significantly over the study period, particularly after the pandemic. The number of nonusing patients decreased between 2018 and 2021, from 996 of 3522 (28.3%) in 2018 to only 227 of 1743 (13%) in the first 7 months of 2021. Conversely, the number of patients with 15 or more messages doubled, from 642 of 3522 (18.2%) in 2018 to 654 of 1743 (37.5%) in 2021. The youngest patients, non-Hispanic Black and Hispanic patients, and, particularly, non-English-speaking patients had significantly higher odds of continued nonuse. Patients with preexisting comorbidities, hypertensive disorders of pregnancy, diabetes, and a history of mental health conditions were all significantly associated with higher portal use and intensity. Reducing disparities in messaging use will require outreach and assistance to low-use patient groups, including education addressing health literacy and encouraging appropriate and effective use of messaging.
