BACKGROUND Testing, traceability, and the isolation (TTI strategy) actions are a central strategy defined by WHO to contain the COVID-19 pandemic. In this sense, countries have had difficulties in counting the number of people infected with SARS-CoV-2. Errors in reporting results are a common factor as well as the lack of interoperability between laboratories and governments. Approaches aimed at sending spreadsheets via email expose patients' privacy and have increased the probability of errors due to re-typing and generate a delay in the notification of results. OBJECTIVE Design and develop an interoperable platform to report PCR SARS-CoV-2 tests from laboratories to the Chilean government. METHODS The methodology to design and develop the interoperable platform was comprised of six well-structured stages: 1) Creation of a minimum dataset to PCR SARS-CoV-2 tests, 2) Modeling process and endpoints where institutions interchange information, 3) Standards and interoperability design, 4) Software development, 5) Quality assurance and 6) Software implementation. RESULTS The main result was the interoperable FHIR platform to report PCR SARS-CoV-2 tests from laboratories to the Chilean government. The platform was designed, developed, tested, and implemented following a structured methodology. The platform's performance to 1,000 requests resulted in a response time of 240 milliseconds, throughput was 28.3 requests per second, and the process management time was 131 milliseconds. The platform has availability of 99.9 %. The security was implemented with JSON Web Token (JWT) to ensure confidentiality, authorization, and authentication. All the PCR SARS-CoV-2 tests were accessible through an Application Programming Interface (API) gateway with valid credentials and the right access control list. CONCLUSIONS The platform was implemented and is currently being used by UC Christus Laboratory. The platform is secure. It was tested adequately for confidentiality, secure authorization, authentication, and message integrity. This platform simplifies the reporting of PCR SARS-CoV-2 tests and reduces the time and probability of mistakes in counting positive cases. The interoperable solution with FHIR is working successfully and is open for the community, laboratories, and any institution that needs to report PCR SARS-CoV-2 tests.

Abstract – Based on the concept of Application programming interface (API).This project comprises of a package named "algokit" which contains several algorithms based on the category of searching, sorting, dynamic programming, tree traversals and swapping. Keeping in mind that different algorithms from the same category have its own benefit in time and space complexity, This project covers almost all the algorithms known and available from each category. This would give the user several options to choose the right algorithm for its code.An user just requires to import the package named AlgoKit and call the functions inside it for a smooth programming experience. One of the prime objectives of this project is to build a kit that serves the purpose of reducing the number of lines of code and also reduce the time taken to run the same code elsewhere. It is platform independent and can be used in any open source Java development environment.

AbstractThe 21st Century Cures Act requires that certified health information technology have an application programming interface (API) giving access to all data elements of a patient’s electronic health record, “without special effort”. In the spring of 2020, the Office of the National Coordinator of Health Information Technology (ONC) published a rule—21st Century Cures Act Interoperability, Information Blocking, and the ONC Health IT Certification Program—regulating the API requirement along with protections against information blocking. The rule specifies the SMART/HL7 FHIR Bulk Data Access API, which enables access to patient-level data across a patient population, supporting myriad use cases across healthcare, research, and public health ecosystems. The API enables “push button population health” in that core data elements can readily and standardly be extracted from electronic health records, enabling local, regional, and national-scale data-driven innovation.

Availability the Application Programming Interface (API) for third-party applications on Android devices provides an opportunity to monitor Android devices with each other. This is used to create an application that can facilitate parents in child supervision through Android devices owned. In this study, some features added to the classification of image content on Android devices related to negative content. In this case, researchers using Clarifai API. The result of this research is to produce a system which has feature, give a report of image file contained in target smartphone and can do deletion on the image file, receive browser history report and can directly visit in the application, receive a report of child location and can be directly contacted via this application. This application works well on the Android Lollipop (API Level 22). Index Terms— Application Programming Interface(API), Monitoring, Negative Content, Children, Parent.

BACKGROUND JUUL is an electronic nicotine delivery system (ENDS) resembling a USB device that has become rapidly popular among youth. Recent studies suggest that social media may be contributing to its popularity. JUUL company claims their products are targeted for adult current smokers but recent surveillance suggests youth may be exposed to JUUL products online. To date, there has been little attention on restricting youth exposure to age restricted products on social media. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to utilize a computational age prediction algorithm to determine the extent to which underage youth are being exposed to JUUL’s marketing practices on Twitter. METHODS We examined all of @JUULvapor’s Twitter followers in April 2018. For followers with a public account, we obtained their metadata and last 200 tweets using the Twitter application programming interface. We ran a series of classification models to predict whether the account following @JUULvapor was an underage youth or an adult. RESULTS Out of 9,077 individuals following @JUULvapor Twitter account, a three-age category model predicted that 44.9% are 13 to 17 years old (N=4,078), 43.6% are 18 to 24 years old (N=3,957), and 11.5% are 25 years old or older (N=1,042); and a two-age category model predicted that 80.6% (N=7,313) are under 21 years old. CONCLUSIONS Despite a disclaimer that followers must be of legal age to purchase tobacco products, the majority of JUUL followers on Twitter are under age. This suggests that ENDS brands and social media networks need to implement more stringent age-verification methods to protect youth from age-restricted content.

The use of information technology these days are very high. From business through education activities tend to use this technology most of the time. Information technology uses computer networks for integration and management data. To avoid business problems, the number of network devices installed requires a manageable network configuration for easier maintenance. Traditionally, each of network devices has to be manually configured by network administrators. This process takes time and inefficient. Network automation methods exist to overcome the repetitive process. Design model uses a web-based application for maintenance and automates networking tasks. In this research, the network automation system implemented and built a controller application that used REST API (Representational State Transfer Application Programming Interface) architecture and built by Django framework with Python programming language. The design modeled namely As-RaD System. The network devices used in this research are Cisco CSR1000V because it supports REST API communication to manage its network configuration and could be placed on the server either. The As-RaD System provides 75% faster performance than Paramiko and 92% than NAPALM.
