Examine the Critical Success Factors and The Role of Knowledge Management in Successful Implementation of Enterprise Resource Planning Systems (Erps)

Implementation of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems still present a significant challenge for most organizations, which usually results in serious failures. Frequent commentaries in the literature have stated that certain critical success factors (CSFs) have to be accomplished in an organization for an ERP system project to be successful. In this study we argue and demonstrate empirically that critical success factors with the variable mediator of knowledge management have a significant role in order to achieve the implementation of ERP systems. The present study is applied and fundamental research of descriptive analytical kind. The data needed for this research are collected through library and field study. The study population includes all managers and experts related to the tea industry who work with ERP systems. A conceptual model was devised and then analyzed using structural equation modeling based on data collected from 80 valid questionnaires.
The Assessment of Viewpoint to Core Competence Understanding of Successful Companies in Developing Countries (The Case Study of Turkey)

The recent searches have revealed that the enterprises will catch the superior position against their competitors when specialized in line with their skills and focused on their core competencies. The importance of this topic in reaching to success of the enterprises operating in developing countries. Turkey is a country that is continuously monitored and has a great importance in developing countries in terms of both their own enterprises and foreign investors. This is one of the most important reasons that is underlying for the choice of Turkey among developing countries from our research. The aim of this study, from this point forth, has been carried out to determine perspectives on core skills of holdings that are among the largest firms of Turkey. And also how they assess the core skills and to what extent they sees as the exit point of focusing on core competencies especially in times of crisis. Some of these firms depend on a single holding company or business group. For this reason, the interviews have been conducted with holding which these firms are connected, after selection through random sampling between firms which are operating in different sectors. The interviews have been conducted with bosses or senior managers of enterprises on this subject and have been made face to face. The answers that are given to questions on the specified subject, have been subject to content analysis. However the subject that has great significance in theoretical studies, such as basic skills, carries a special significance and a character with the original in terms of reveal how and what results generated in its application.

Short-term real-power scheduling considering fuzzy factors in an autonomous system using genetic algorithms

Distributed generation has several advantages such as reducing required transmission capacity and real power losses, and in terms of traditional generation expansion etc. An autonomous system is an independent system that may include diesel generators, a wind park, solar photovoltaic (PV) modules and/or batteries etc. serving its loads. The paper presents a new method for dealing with short-term power scheduling of an autonomous system. The fuel cost of diesel units is required to be smaller than an expected value and all operational constraints are satisfied. In particular, wind and solar PV power generation with uncertainties are modelled by a fuzzy set. The genetic algorithm is used to solve this problem formulated as symmetrical fuzzy programming. Simulation results based on an autonomous system show the applicability of the proposed method.
Strategies to Prevent Sarcopenia in the Aging Process: Role of Protein Intake and Exercise

Sarcopenia is one of the main issues associated with the process of aging. Characterized by muscle mass loss, it is triggered by several conditions, including sedentary habits and negative net protein balance. According to World Health Organization, it is expected a 38% increase in older individuals by 2025. Therefore, it is noteworthy to establish recommendations to prevent sarcopenia and several events and comorbidities associated with this health issue condition. In this review, we discuss the role of these factors, prevention strategies, and recommendations, with a focus on protein intake and exercise.
Ergonomi och taktilitet : simulering av en fingertopp

A 3-dimensional FE-model of a fingertip has been created in the simulation program Ansys. The geometrical properties and dynamical behavior of the three skin layers hypodermis, dermis and epidermis were taken from published studies and reports of earlier FE-models. The contact between the fingertip and a plate was simulated with friction coefficient and normal force from own measurements. Three simulations were made to evaluate the FE-model: • Normal force. • Normal force and a tangential force in the plate’s length direction. • Normal force and a tangential displacement of the plate in its length direction. The deformation was evaluated and the results were compared to results from earlier studies. The FE-model could not be verified since the contact friction between finger and plate probably has been modelled incorrectly. Further knowledge of the dynamic properties of the skin is needed to create an acceptable model.
Knockout of Arabidopsis thaliana VEP1, Encoding a PRISE (Progesterone 5β-Reductase/Iridoid Synthase-Like Enzyme), Leads to Metabolic Changes in Response to Exogenous Methyl Vinyl Ketone (MVK)

Small or specialized natural products (SNAPs) produced by plants vary greatly in structure and function, leading to selective advantages during evolution. With a limited number of genes available, a high promiscuity of the enzymes involved allows the generation of a broad range of SNAPs in complex metabolic networks. Comparative metabolic studies may help to understand why—or why not—certain SNAPs are produced in plants. Here, we used the wound-induced, vein patterning regulating VEP1 (AtStR1, At4g24220) and its paralogue gene on locus At5g58750 (AtStR2) from Arabidopsis to study this issue. The enzymes encoded by VEP1-like genes were clustered under the term PRISEs (progesterone 5β-reductase/iridoid synthase-like enzymes) as it was previously demonstrated that they are involved in cardenolide and/or iridoid biosynthesis in other plants. In order to further understand the general role of PRISEs and to detect additional more “accidental” roles we herein characterized A. thaliana steroid reductase 1 (AtStR1) and compared it to A. thaliana steroid reductase 2 (AtStR2). We used A. thaliana Col-0 wildtype plants as well as VEP1 knockout mutants and VEP1 knockout mutants overexpressing either AtStR1 or AtStR2 to investigate the effects on vein patterning and on the stress response after treatment with methyl vinyl ketone (MVK). Our results added evidence to the assumption that AtStR1 and AtStR2, as well as PRISEs in general, play specific roles in stress and defense situations and may be responsible for sudden metabolic shifts.
Repurposing Market Drugs to Target Epigenetic Enzymes in Human Diseases

Drug discovery is an exciting yet highly costly endeavor. In the United States, developing a new prescription medicine that gains marketing approval takes near a decade and costs drugmakers for near 3 billion. More challengingly, the success rate of a compound entering phase I trials is just slightly under 10%. Because of these mounting hurdles, repurposing market approved drugs to new clinical indications has been a new trend on the rise. Another merit to this approach is the already confirmed toxicity profiles of the drugs and their possession of drug-like features. Thus, repurposed drugs can reach the market approved stage in a much faster, cheaper, and more efficient way. Notably, epigenetic enzymes play a critical role in the etiology and progression of different diseases. Researchers are now assessing the possibilities of using market approved drugs to target epigenetic enzymes as a novel strategy to curtail disease progression. Thus, in this book chapter, we will provide an outlook on repurposing market drugs to target epigenetic enzymes in various diseases. Consequently, this book chapter will not only provide the readers with current knowledge in this specific field, but also will shed light on the pathway forward for repurposing market drugs to target epigenetic enzymes in human diseases.

In acoustics the study of the prediction of noise and its possible consequences has tremendously gained in importance in the past decades. A low noise level has become an essential quality as well as a marketing advantage for products and installations. For guidance in the design of silent products there is an urgent need for computational tools to predict noise and localize its source.
ADOPTION OF IMPROVED CASSAVA VARIETIES AMONG SMALL SCALE FARMERS IN APAC DISTRICT

Low adoption of modern agricultural technologies amongst farmers in Uganda has been identified as one of the main reasons for the low agricultural productivity and increase in poverty level. The general objective of this study is to assess the adoption of improved cassava varieties among small scale farmers in Apac District, Uganda. It utilized cross-sectional farm household level data collected in 2020 from a randomly selected sample of 120 cassava producing households from four sub-counties. Data were subjected to descriptive and inferential statistical analysis such as frequencies, means, Chi-square test, Tobit and Logit regression models. Results revealed that majority (66.7%) of the respondents grow improved cassava varieties. NASE 14 is the most (59.2%) highly adopted compared to NASE2 (9.2%), NASE1 (9.2%), NAROCAS1 (6.6%) and NAROCAS2 (15.8%) varieties. Farmer’s level of education, access to extension services and marital status showed a positive and significant (P≤0.01), (P≤0.01), and (P≤0.05) influence on adoption of improved cassava varieties, respectively. Years of farming, access to credit, farm size, and farmer’s age showed a negative relationship with adoption improved cassava varieties. Coefficient of access to extension services (P≤0.01), farm size (P≤0.05) and farming experience (P≤0.05) positively and significantly influenced perception of farmers towards improved cassava varieties, whereas distance from the nearest market (P≤0.05) and age (P≤0.05) negatively and significantly influenced perceptions for farmers.

Kinetic of Forced Oxidation of Grape Seeds, Walnuts and Corn Germs Oils in the Presence of Antioxidants

The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of the use of some antioxidants-α-tocopherol, n-octyl gallate, L-ascorbic acid 6-palmitate and matcha extract (green tea) as inhibitors of grape seeds, walnuts and corn germ oils oxidation. The oxidation was studied in a forced regime during 700 h, by the addition of hydrogen peroxide and Cu 2+ ions. The optimal conditions of the accelerated oxidation process in the analysed systems were established. The progress of lipid oxidation was evaluated by measuring the peroxide value (PV) and conjugated dienes and trienes (CD, CT). A series of secondary products of the lipid oxidation were identified: hexanal, octanal and hydroxy-nonadienal. The intensity of the formation of these compounds during oxidation was monitored. The results of this study showed that the oil samples with the addition of antioxidants showed considerably lower oxidation values compared to the control sample. More effective was the action of L-ascorbic acid 6-palmitate and n-octyl gallate, the optimum concentration was 0.1%. An inhibitory effect of the oxidation process was noted for α-tocopherol and matcha extract, the optimal addition concentration was 1%.

Detection and recovery from the obvious engineer attack

The weak security of the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP) has been a known issue and has had several solutions proposed. The leading solution of the Secure BGP protocol has been slow to be acceptably refined or adopted. Instead, here I consider a somewhat smaller problem of a specific attack on the network and propose a solution to the attack that may impact other insecurities of BGP as well. The oblivious engineer attack is one in which a router will allow all BGP traffic to pass and be processed correctly while dropping all other traffic along that route. Part of the network has been effectively cut off, but BGP will fail to notice because its own traffic is still succeeding. The proposed solution involves more than just the routers in the exterior routing protocols. Instead, the end hosts participate by alerting the BGP speakers to connection failures that they detect. In turn the BGP speaker may investigate the complaint and determine if the link is indeed failed. If it has failed, then the BGP speaker will seek out another working route from other available routes through which to pass the traffic. In this way the end BGP speakers will learn of the problem and correct it themselves, if possible, by rerouting the traffic through a different path. The attack and solution were simulated using SSFNet. The results were as expected as the solution will avert the attack by finding another route. The third connection attempt between the host and the server will succeed and progress normally, with a practically negligible impact on the traffic of the network as a whole. The first two connection attempts are needed to alert both ends of the connection to the failure, assuming that the failed router is on both paths from one node to the other.

HIDE 'N SEEK REVISITED - FULL STEALTH IS BACK

Rootkits are designed to hide information. They are no longer utilized only by highly skilled individuals targeting UNIX machines. Advanced Windows rootkits have emerged and are gaining popularity among intruders. The alarming news is that malware writers are adopting rootkit techniques, which allows them to create a new breed of worms, Trojans and spyware that are able to avoid detection by hiding their presence on the system.
Injectable self-healing ceria-based nanocomposite hydrogel with ROS-scavenging activity for skin wound repair

Abstract Excessive reactive oxygen species (ROS) in the injured skin may impede the wound repair and skin regeneration. Herein, we develop an injectable self-healing ceria-based nanocomposite hydrogel with ROS-scavenging activity to accelerate wound healing. The nanocomposite hydrogels were successfully prepared by coating cerium oxide nanorods with polyethylenimine and crosslinked with benzaldehyde-terminated F127 (F127-CHO) through the dynamic Schiff-base reaction (FVEC hydrogel). The results showed that the FVEC hydrogel possessed the good thermosensitivity, injectability, self-healing ability and ROS scavenging activity. The subcutaneous implantation experiments in mice confirmed that FVEC hydrogels are biocompatible and biodegradable in vivo. The full-thickness skin wound studies showed that FVEC hydrogel could significantly enhance the wound healing and epithelium regeneration with the formation of hair follicle and adipocyte tissue. This work provides a new strategy for the development of multifunctional Ce-based nanocomposite hydrogel for full-thickness skin wound healing and regeneration.
Retrospective stable isotopes of vertebrae reveal sexual ontogenetic patterns and trophic ecology in oceanic whitetip shark, Carcharhinus longimanus

Abstract There is a common phenomenon in nature whereby some animals have differences in their ontogenetic changes in dietary preferences between sexes, especially apex predators. These reflect changes in the needs of development during their lifetimes. Apex predators potentially have diverse dietary niches and a large impact on the trophic dynamics within ecosystems. However, the difference in life history between males and females often leads to increased difficulty in management and conservation. In this study, 25 oceanic whitetip sharks, Carcharhinus longimanus, were collected from the central and eastern tropical Pacific. Retrospective stable isotope analysis of vertebrae was used to evaluate the potential ontogenetic differences in feeding habits and niche width between sexes. Results showed that C. longimanus had a wide range of δ13C values (−18.1 to −12.3‰) and δ15N values (8.9–14.8‰). However, males and females had similar trophic positions with large niche overlap at similar growth stages. Both sexes had increasing δ13C values but relatively constant δ15N values along the vertebrae. These results indicated that male and female C. longimanus may share similar feeding strategies and movement patterns. The results presented in this study enhance our understanding of sexual ontogenetic patterns and ecological role of C. longimanus and highlighted the applicability of vertebrae for characterizing shark life‐history traits.
Outcomes of Endolymphatic Sac Surgery for Meniere's Disease with and without Comorbid Migraine

Purpose To explore outcomes of endolymphatic sac surgery for patients with Meniere's disease with and without the comorbid condition of migraine. Materials and Methods A retrospective chart review of adult patients undergoing endolymphatic sac surgery at a single tertiary care center from 1987 to 2019 was performed. All adult patients who failed medical therapy and underwent primary endolymphatic sac surgery were included. The main outcome measures were vertigo control and functional level scale (FLS) score. Patient characteristics, comorbidities, and audiometric outcomes were tracked as well. Results Patients with Meniere's disease and migraine had a stronger association with psychiatric comorbidities (64.29% vs. 25.80%, p=0.01), shorter duration of vertigo episodes (143 vs. 393 min, p=0.02), and younger age (36.6 vs. 50.8 yr, p=0.005) at the time of endolymphatic sac surgery. Postoperative pure tone averages and word recognition scores were nearly identical to preoperative baselines. Class A vertigo control (47.92%) was most common, followed by class B vertigo control (31.25%). The FLS score improved from 4.2 to 2.8 (p < 0.001). Both patients with and without migraine had classes A-B vertigo control (66.67% vs. 80.95%) without any statistically significant difference (p=0.59). Of the patients who required secondary treatment (10.42%), none had migraine. Conclusions Endolymphatic sac surgery is an effective surgical intervention for Meniere's disease with and without migraine. Patients with comorbid migraine tend to be younger and present with psychiatric comorbidities.
The Persuasion Knowledge Model Within Instagram Advertisements

Abstract The aim of this research was to find a correlation between the Persuasion Knowledge Model and Instagram Advertisements. Past research has primarily focused on this model on other forms of media such as television, radio, newspaper, etc. Additionally, the ages studied have been over the age of 30 as well as not focused within a certain geological demographic. For this study, participants were residents of Pennsylvania who vary in age between 18-25 years old. Using a survey, statistical analysis, and Pearson Product Moment Correlation Coefficient Analysis test (PCC test), this study measured each of the 49 participants’ persuasion knowledge and correlated it to the advertisements chosen in the survey. The analyses found that those with lower persuasion knowledge were more likely to select an advertisement with less text variance and influential text. Further, a new understanding was found that showed a slightly negative correlation due to the PCC test, but the correlation was not statistically significant. Therefore, the findings of this research study refuted the initial hypothesis and other studies conducted in the field of persuasion knowledge.
Living wage for workers in conditions of industrial development in Vietnam

The living wage is defined by researchers as the salary that workers receive during normal working hours, which is enough to maintain a decent standard of living for themselves and their families. Therefore, it is different from the concept of minimum wage being applied as a basis for paying wages to workers today. Vietnam's minimum wage is calculated as the minimum to escape poverty, but not the minimum wage to ensure a decent minimum living in a developed economy. The minimum level to escape poverty is often applied in the condition that the country prioritizes economic development, but in the current period, the minimum wage must be a living wage to realize inclusive and inclusive development. leave behind. In the condition that Vietnam has become a middle-income country, the minimum wage Vietnam needs to aim for must be a living minimum wage. Therefore, this article analyzes the basis of paying a living wage for workers in Vietnam in the context of changing the economic model from the traditional to the industrial development model in Vietnam today.
New Random Technique of Inverter Control for Common Mode Voltage Reduction of Inverter-Fed Induction Motor Drives

A new random inverter control technique will be presented in the paper, which not only reduces the dominant harmonic cluster of PWM voltage, but also dramatically mitigates the common mode voltage of inverter-fed induction motor drives. It will he demonstrated that the common mode voltage for the new random switching technique can be mitigated to 50% in comparison with that for conventional Random Space Vector Modulation (RSVM) technique 111. Moreover, the first dominant cluster for the new random technique is also significantly reduced in comparison with that for existing Space Vector Modulation (SVM) technique (2-5). Test results derived from experimental induction motor drives will be presented confirming the theoretical analysis.
