Selection of software agile practices using Analytic hierarchy process

ContextThe increasing use of software and information technology in modern society requires that the deployment of IT solutions should be more efficient and controlled. In this sense, agile methodologies are essential to achieve this goal, but a relevant question arises: Which is the right methodology for reaching that goal? ObjectiveThe purpose of the research was to study the prioritization of agile practices and improvement objectives in the context of software development, using the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. For this purpose, 42 agile practices, 16 improvement objectives, 4 organizations dedicated to software development in Colombia and 40 professionals in the area of information and communication technologies in the same country were considered. Methodology: The methodological approach used was mixed. On the one hand, we applied a quantitative approach for the treatment of data with the AHP method and, on the other hand, a qualitative analysis by consulting experts through a digital survey to validate the prioritization of the improvement objectives. Questionpro was used as a support tool for multicriteria comparison. ResultsThe main results show that applying AHP allowed us to prioritize 6 improvement objectives and 5 agile practices, where it is highlighted that the prioritization does not discard the other objects of comparison but allows us to put into practice the prioritized elements to favor their progressive implementation. The non-prioritized elements could be part of future iterations of multicriteria comparison that go hand in hand with capacity development and organizational maturity models in the context of global software development. ConclusionIt is highlighted that, although there is evidence of the application of multi-criteria comparison methods in the software development industry, this work applies such methods in the context of four different agile methodologies, which translates into a precedent for the conformation of hybrid methodological approaches.

Intelligent speech recognition algorithm in multimedia visual interaction via BiLSTM and attention mechanism

With the rapid development of information technology in modern society, the application of multimedia integration platform is more and more extensive. Speech recognition has become an important subject in the process of multimedia visual interaction. The accuracy of speech recognition is dependent on a number of elements, two of which are the acoustic characteristics of speech and the speech recognition model. Speech data is complex and changeable. Most methods only extract a single type of feature of the signal to represent the speech signal. This single feature cannot express the hidden information. And, the excellent speech recognition model can also better learn the characteristic speech information to improve performance. This work proposes a new method for speech recognition in multimedia visual interaction. First of all, this work considers the problem that a single feature cannot fully represent complex speech information. This paper proposes three kinds of feature fusion structures to extract speech information from different angles. This extracts three different fusion features based on the low-level features and higher-level sparse representation. Secondly, this work relies on the strong learning ability of neural network and the weight distribution mechanism of attention model. In this paper, the fusion feature is combined with the bidirectional long and short memory network with attention. The extracted fusion features contain more speech information with strong discrimination. When the weight increases, it can further improve the influence of features on the predicted value and improve the performance. Finally, this paper has carried out systematic experiments on the proposed method, and the results verify the feasibility.

Media Narrative: On the Question of Structure and Functions

As a research task, the authors made an attempt to analyze the phenomenon of the media narrative in the structural and functional aspect. The selected research material includes the following phenomena: Soviet posters, publications in the mass media (MSK) and videos (motivational content) posted on the TikTok platform. The subject side of the study includes narrative motifs presented in the relevant materials. The relevance of this scientific research is due to the fact that the media narrative has a large "manipulating resource" and can affect the individual or society. The manipulative "power" of the media narrative is increasing in direct proportion to the development of information technologies in modern society. The research methodology is based on the narrative theory of V. Ya. Propp, which involves the decomposition of the plot into composite invariant motifs. The analysis showed that the motive of struggle in the studied media narratives is the key one, it is repeated in all plot constructions - from the narrative of the Soviet poster to modern narrative forms. The importance of this motive is explained by the fact that it is associated with the goals of media exposure, and the recipients begin to reproduce the motives from the materials studied by the authors in reality. That is, we can say that the audience, consuming information containing this kind of media narrative, begins to become a part of it itself, but in reality.

Effects of scientific modernization in the human society: A critical appraisal in the light of Jacques Ellul’s thought with Nigeria in perspective

The motivation for this paper is the clear strides made by science and technology in the world today together with the apparent abuse and dangers inherent in the same science and technology and the products therefrom. Ellul, the philosopher whose position in this area points out that both science and technology inhere a dialectic facticity of the good and the bad all at once, was chosen as the point of departure as well as of arrival in the treatment of this knotty problem. The methods of critical observation and library research were employed. And the rational tools of deduction, analysis, evaluation and synthesis were also used. It was discovered that science and technology have through modernization influenced human society very deeply; positively as well as negatively. The objective of the study then is to demand critical and rational assimilation and use of science and technology and their products, which are like a double-edged sword; they enhance human life in society if well used but could be very destructive if abused. Recommendations include: rational use of the products of science and technology in modern society, respect for the ambience of morality, punishment for unlawful use of the products for harming of humans, responsible manipulation of nature, etc.

A current review of the digital component of cardiac rehabilitation via telemonitoring

The increasing availability of information technologies in modern society has created the opportunity to provide technology-based health care in both hospital and community settings. In this way, telemedicine has become a topic of debate; this can ensure the delivery of accessible, cost-effective and specific health care services at different times and at a distance. Communication technologies have also shown incredible promise in rehabilitation, encouraging the development of a fresh branch of telemedicine known as telerehabilitation. Extensive research has shown that telerehabilitation is equal to or more effective and less expensive compared to traditional rehabilitation in such areas as recovery post-myocardial infarction, post-coronary bypass and post-percutaneous coronary intervention. This literature synthesis aims to highlight the importance of the involvement of telemedicine on cardiac recovery in order to improve the quality of life, reduce the morbidity and mortality of patients in the context of the use of information and communication technologies that allow obtaining important parameters in quantifying the risk of heart failure and, respectively, of cardiovascular events. The comprehensive structure of knowledge, the evolutionary path and research strengths of telerehabilitation from the perspective of the cardiac patient in Moldova, is poorly visualized, thus, the final objective of the study is to study the effectiveness of telemedically monitored home rehabilitation versus the unsupervised one in order to improve the quality and prognosis of patients’ lives with ischemic heart disease after coronary revascularization.

The Relationship between Metaverse and Design

With the development of science and technology in modern society, all walks of life are developing towards intelligence and information technology, and the meta-universe is still an immature concept at present, which is very general and summative. It has five characteristics: immersive experience, virtual clone, stable economic system, strong social attribute and open creation. In the construction of the virtual world of the meta-universe, immersive experience is the first to bear the brunt, which is closely related to interaction design. The progress of technology will inevitably change the way of art presentation and information reception, thus driving the comprehensive development and update of visual art from form to method and content. The Earth-scale, seamless integration with the real world, and constantly evolving digital world is the goal of scientific and technological development.

Importance of Rare Earth Elements in Modern Society and their Potential Source in Coal Ashes

Introduction: Rare Earth Elements (REEs) are crucial for advanced technologies in modern society, ranging from electronics to renewable energy and defense. Their increasing demand in critical industries underscores the need for a consistent and sustainable supply. Historically extracted from REE-rich minerals such as bastnäsite and monazite, the search for alternative sources has gained prominence, among these, coal ashes stand out, produced by burning coal to generate energy, ashes contain REEs in relatively low concentrations but with significant potential due to their massive global volume. The importance of ensuring the resilience of the REE supply chain has driven research to extract these elements from coal ashes, diversifying sources and reducing reliance on specific minerals. As technologies advance and REE applications expand, the ability to recover them from unconventional sources like coal ashes could have a sustainable impact on our societies. Research into the extraction and utilization of REEs from ashes is in progress and may enhance supply security. This study highlights the global importance of finding alternative sources of REE, such as coal ash, emphasizing the need to ensure a consistent and sustainable supply of these essential elements.

Reflection on the design of food systems and experiences for sustainable transformations

The importance of food and technology in modern society is undeniable. Technological advances have revolutionized how we produce, distribute and prepare food beyond local boundaries, and even how we eat. Eating is one of the most multisensory experiences in everyday life. All of our five senses (i.e. taste, smell, vision, hearing and touch) are involved. We first eat with our eyes, we can smell the food before we taste it, and then experience its textures and flavours in our mouth. However, the experience does not stop there. The sounds that come both from the environment in which we are immersed in while eating and our interactions with the food (e.g. chewing) and utensils we use to eat further influence our eating experiences. In all that, digital technology plays an increasingly important role, especially using emerging immersive technologies such as virtual and augmented reality (VR/AR). Designing at the intersection between technology and food requires multi-stakeholder commitments and a human experience-centred approach. Furthermore, it is essential to look beyond disciplinary boundaries and account for insights on various levels including the perceptual effects, experiential layers and technological advancements.

Highly efficient thermoelectric cooling performance of ultrafine-grained and nanoporous materials

Nanograins and pores, as two common microstructural defects, are capable to impede phonon transport. However, thus far, the stability of nanograins at elevated temperature and the feasibility of porosity in boosting the figure of merit ZT are still concerned in thermoelectrics. Herein, we report that a specifically designed microstructure mainly consisting of ultrafine grains within the nanocrystalline regime and randomly distributed pores in α-MgAgSb gives rise to an ultralow lattice thermal conductivity ∼0.46 W m−1 K−1 at 300 K that breaks the limit of the estimated minimum value. Associated with a slightly deteriorated electrical performance, an unprecedented performance, ZT ∼0.94 at 300 K and ZTave ∼1.16, are realized. Benefiting from optimized α-MgAgSb in this work and Mg3.2(Bi, Sb)2 material to fabricate a Peltier module, we can achieve a high maximum temperature difference ΔTmax ∼52 K and a maximum coefficient of performance COP ∼8.3 at hot-side temperature Th = 300 K, outperforming these previously reported non-Bi2Te3 modules. This is, to our knowledge, the first demonstration of high performance thermoelectric modules mediated by the utilization of ultrafine grains and nanoporous structures, which provides a swift pathway to accelerate the wide employment of thermoelectric cooling technology in modern society.

On Current Change Trends in the Problematic Field of the Philosophy and Technology

Introduction. The article is devoted to the analysis of changes in the problematic area of the philosophy of technology. This analysis is necessary if we are to comprehend the current state of the philosophy of technology and envision its future development. Methods. The philo­sophical and methodological analysis employed here allowed for the discovery of the trend in the development of conventional approaches to technology understanding based on the expansion and evolution of the organoprojection principle, which explains the development and operation of artificial neural networks. The conclusion about the role and ubiquitous penetration of technology in modern society was based on the system-structural method; it objectively prompted philosophers to revise the fundamental ideas in the field of technology and technosphere. Artificial intellectual objects with a certain level of autonomy — i. e., those that take on the characteristics of a subject — are included in the definition of "technology". Results and Discussion. One of the most important contemporary trends in the growth of the philosophy of technology is the inclusion of issues related to the in­tegration of technical and scientific knowledge and the emergence of a single complex in philosophical discourse, as well as the analysis of technoscience and its manifestations in areas like biotechnology and digital technologies. Issues pertaining to social technologies in the me­ dium term, such as the socio-humanitarian expertise of technical pro­jects, are touched upon, among others. The issue of a scientist, engi­neer, or technician's social responsibility is one of the traditional but newly interpreted problems. The foundation of the philosophical anal­ysis of growing responsibility is the discovery of the connection be­tween freedom and the coming demand for technological activity. An apparent trend is a greater emphasis on humans, on protecting them as a species, and on altering their status in the technical world, for in­stance, within the human-computer system. It's still up for debate whether it is possible to create a hybrid human form integrated with electronic components. Conclusion. The range of issues in contempo­rary philosophy of technology has significantly expanded, according to the trends examined.
