Close Relationship

The main goal of this study is to demonstrate how a management records system increase the level of organizational governance. It also shows how corporate governance interacts with record managers. With that purpose, a descriptive analysis of a qualitative, exploratory, and facetted nature is carried out based on literature and records management standards, with emphasis on the standard ISO 30301:2019 edited on records management (RM). In addition, a comparative analysis of the principles and critical factors of governance is carried out in order to compare them and systematize relations with those of the MSR. As a result, the authors seek to identify the determining critical factors and relationships, both with the most prominent elements as components of governance, and with their basic principles: openness, participation, responsibility, efficiency, and consistency. The results of the study highlight the close relationship between them and show a greater presence in the ISO 30301 standard.

Significant Difference

This study aims to find out the critical factors in delivering the quality of services at the Public Health Center (Puskesmas) in Sukawati District. Determination of critical factors based on Servqual Gap is a comparison between expectations and perceptions of the quality of service perceived by patients/ public health visitors. The research method is using qualitative descriptive analysis. The critical factor is determined by making a Cartesian diagram which is sourced from Serqual GAP. Data was obtained from the distribution of questionnaires to 200 respondents. The results of the data analysis concluded that there were 10 indicators in the Puskesmas Sukawati I that were categorized as critical factors that had to be corrected immediately. While Puskesmas Sukawati II there are 2 indicators that must immediately be improved. The comparative analysis shows that there is a significant difference between patient expectations and perceptions of perceived service quality. This result is certainly a consideration for the management of the Puskesmas to be able to assess the accuracy of the services provided to the community so that it can improve the quality of services in the future.

This chapter is going through the Industry 4.0 concept. On the first hand, it relies on advanced technologies which have a high potential to save costs and deliver groundbreaking products and services. On the other hand, Industry 4.0 brings so many innovations and opportunities that it requires an essential change in thinking and organization. Presented insights are based on conducted comparative analysis and its results. This analysis compared significant maturity models for the assessment of Industry 4.0 readiness in organizations and defined universal dimensions. These identified dimensions uncovered existing gaps in the analyzed maturity models. Solving these missing areas required additional research that provided additional insights not only in Industry 4.0. The results of this analysis provided an overview of critical factors related to Industry 4.0 and possible solutions to missing parts. The technical challenges related to technologies, standards, and architectures used in Industry 4.0 are introduced. Organizational specifics of this concept are outlined.

The research study focuses on exploring different business models that can be used for the deployment of battery storage in India. It further provides a perspective on the different business models adopted across the globe. It also focuses on the key market drivers that can be considered to build the country's storage ecosystem. The objective of the study was to bridge the gap between technology and commercialization. A comparative analysis of different business models adopted by other countries for battery storage and their relevance in the Indian Context was done. It also considered the business models that have been used in different sectors and looks feasible for the battery storage sector. The study recommends the model of “Trading stored electricity on Power Exchanges or Whole-Sale Market” and the model of “introducing battery storage as a package” as the most suitable models for implementation in the Indian context. Further the study identifies few critical factors for the success of commercializing battery storage in India which are choosing the right business model, knowing the needs of the customers and the Government's stand on policies.

Pool hopping attack is the result of miners leaving the pool when it offers fewer financial rewards and joining back when the rewards of mining yield higher rewards in blockchain networks. This act of leaving and rejoining the pool only during the good times results in the miner receiving more rewards than the computational power they contribute. Miners exiting the pool deprive it of its collective hash power, which leaves the pool unable to mine the block successfully. This results in its competitors mining the block before they can finish mining. Existing research shows pool hopping resistant measures and detection strategies; however, they do not offer any robust preventive solution to discourage miners from leaving the mining pool. To prevent pool hopping attacks, a smart contract-based pool hopping attack prevention model is proposed. The main objective of our research is maintaining the symmetrical relationship between the miners by requiring them all to continually contribute their computational power to successfully mine a block. We implement a ledger containing records of all miners, in the form of a miner certificate, which tracks the history of the miner’s earlier behavior. The certificate enables a pool manager to better initiate terms of the smart contract, which safeguards the interests of existing mining pool members. The model prevents frequent mine hoppers from pool hopping as they submit coins in the form of an escrow and risk losing them if they abandon the pool before completing mining of the block. The key critical factors that every pool hopping attack prevention solution must address and a study of comparative analysis with existing solutions are presented in the paper.

Abstract The authors do the field of cultural evolution a service by exploring the role of non-social cognition in human cumulative technological culture, truly neglected in comparison with socio-cognitive abilities frequently assumed to be the primary drivers. Some specifics of their delineation of the critical factors are problematic, however. I highlight recent chimpanzee–human comparative findings that should help refine such analyses.
