Published: January 2022

This special issue of the Industrial and Systems Engineering Review once again showcases the top papers from the annual General Donald R. Keith memorial capstone conference at the United States Military Academy in West Point, NY. Despite continued COVID restrictions, the truly innovative conference included a mix of in-person presentations with over 50 live and remote judges from across academia and industry to create a high-quality event highlighting the undergraduate student team research. After consideration of over 50 academic papers, the eight listed in this issue were selected for publication in this special issue of the journal. The topics discussed are broad and diverse, however decision support within an uncertain and complex environment emerges as a theme. Much of the work completed by industrial and systems engineers focuses on getting decisions right by means of the tools of our trade. The suite of tools surveyed within these papers represents several state-of-the-art methods as well as time-proven techniques within a unique application domain.

Military applications dominated several of the papers. Downey et al. studied massive datasets that represent military operational behaviors in training, seeking to better understand military operational capabilities. Ungrady and Dabkowski tackled the complexities of US Army recruiting through the application of fuzzy cognitive maps, searching for causation. Middlebrooks et al. studied military acquisition system decisions, applying system dynamics modeling.

Process improvement represented another sub-theme, with continued focus on decision support. Enos et al. applied lean six sigma techniques to manufacturing processes. Katz et al. explored biomedical machine maintenance scheduling, seeking optimal solutions to a complex scheduling task. Kaloudelis et al. developed a pandemic decision support process for universities.

Analytics and machine learning techniques applied to the information domain dominated the third sub-theme. Krueger and Enos developed analytics to support ice hockey strategies. Manzonelli et al. applied natural language processing against information operations, seeking to automate the examination of incredible amounts of narrative data that seek to shape beliefs and attitudes.

Please join me in congratulating our authors, especially the young undergraduate scholars that provided the primary intellectual efforts that created the contents of this issue.

Data Analytics Development from Military Operational Data
Authors: Downey James , Ellis Zachary , Nguyen Ethan , Spencer Charlotte , Evangelista Paul
Published: January 2022

Each year, the National Training Center (NTC) located at Fort Irwin, California, hosts multiple Brigade-level rotational units to conduct training exercises. NTC’s Instrumentation Systems (NTC-IS) digitally capture and store characteristics of movement and maneuver, use of fires, and other tactical operations in a vast database. The Army’s Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) recently partnered with Training and Doctrine Command (TRADOC) to make some of the data available for introductory analysis within a relational database. While this data has the potential to expose capability gaps, uncover the truth behind doctrinal assumptions, and create a sophisticated feedback platform for Army leaders at all levels, it is largely unexplored and underutilized. The purpose of this project is to demonstrate the value of this data by developing a prototype information system that supports post-rotation analytics, playback capabilities, and repeatable workflows that measure and expose ground-truth operational and logistical behavior and performance during a rotation. The Army modeling and analysis community will use these products to systematically curate and archive the database and enable future analysis of the NTC-IS data.
Technology and Policy: System Acquisition in a Complex Operational Environment
Authors: Middlebrooks Arthur , Brownfield Jackson , Lajeunesse Gabriel , Leach Ryan , Sharfin Christopher
Published: January 2022

The United States’ (US) ability to maintain a technological edge in the current operational environment is challenged by the increased ability of near-peer nations to produce military technology. In response to this problem, the US Army Engineer Research and Development Center (ERDC) seeks to model the three key elements of military system acquisition—context, product, and process—to develop a more comprehensive understanding regarding how and why nations acquire technical solutions. Through the application of the System Dynamics Modeling Process (SDMP), this research examines the interactions between the strategic context of Germany, the military products it acquires to address its operational needs, and the processes it employs to acquire military technology. The results of this research indicate that numerous dynamic variables of context impact the acquisitions process for Germany, particularly political support and subsequent monetary allocations to research and development.

Authors: Stergiou Dimitrios P. , Karagiorgos Thomasa , Alexandris Kostas , Benetatos Theodore , Balaska Panagiota
Published: January 2022

The aim of this study is to test the applicability of the construct of memorable tourism experience in the context of a mega-sport event, and to investigate the contribution of event quality factors on the development of memorable tourism experiences. For the accomplishment of this
aim, the study investigated the experiences of a sample of international spectators who attended the 2018 FIFA World Cup matches hosted in St. Petersburg, Russia. Data collection took place onsite during the group stage matches hosted at the stadium and was conducted with a self-completion
questionnaire using two scales, one for memorable tourism experience and one for event quality factors. The results of exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses provided support for the psychometric properties of revised versions of the two scales. Multiple regression analysis showed that
memorable tourism experiences were significantly predicted by the event quality factors, with the authenticity, entertainment, venue quality, and event competition dimensions having the most significant contributions. Theoretical and management implications are discussed.

Intellectual Property Rights and its implications for the pharmaceutical industry, in particular,
coinciding with the situation of financial and administrative corruption, all of which has resulted
in drug fraud in the Iraqi market and its impact on public health. The control of medical
technology, the persistence of the technological gap and its effects on high price levels, and the
fact that domestic drug producers are obliged to obtain production licenses from global companies
in the light of limited access to pharmaceutical research and development. The research aims at
the impact of economic liberalization within the World Trade Organization (WTO) and its
negative effects on consumers by highlighting the economic and social effects on consumption by
raising prices and monopolies and restricting the volume of consumer demand because of the loss
of the competitive advantage of pharmaceutical goods. Iraq's unwillingness to accede to the
International Convention for the Protection of Intellectual Property Rights of the World Trade
Organization (WTO) and the deterioration of the pharmaceutical industry meant increased
dependence on the outside, increased trade deficits, higher price levels, and its adverse effects on
consumers. Iraq finds it difficult for developed countries to use their intellectual rights as well as
restrict industrial and agricultural work because production and production methods are now
subject to their intellectual property protection law, which prevents any possible industrial
development. The most significant potential short-term impact of TRIPS is the decline in drug
production, which continues to be protected. The great challenge for drug producers is the need to

This document deals with corporate governance and its impact on corporate performance and economic performance. This work is first summarized and based on previous work done, for example, to provide a clearer expression of the corporate governance models of shareholders and shareholders. It then addresses some of the key factors that lead to the effectiveness of corporate governance, and examines some of the strengths, weaknesses, and economic consequences associated with different corporate governance systems. In addition to providing information not provided in previous work, it also provides new information on the concentration of ownership and voting rights in a number of OECD countries. This document also provides empirical evidence on the relationship between corporate governance, firm performance, and economic growth. Finally, several policy implications are identified. This document shows how a corporate governance framework can influence the development of stock markets, R&D and innovative, corporate activities and the development of an active SME sector, thereby affecting economic growth. However, there is no single model of corporate governance, and each country has, over time, developed a variety of mechanisms to overcome representation problems arising from separation of ownership and control. This document examines the various mechanisms used in different systems (eg centralized ownership, executive rent schemes, stock market, inter-corporate shareholding, etc.) and examines the available evidence. Whether they have achieved their goal or not. do. For example, one of the benefits of centralized ownership is that it provides more effective oversight of management and helps with representation problems arising from separation of ownership and control. However, some costs reduce liquidity and the likelihood of risk diversification. Although dispersed ownership carries more liquidity, it may not provide the appropriate incentive to encourage the long-term

El presente proyecto se llevó a cabo a la realización de un plan de seguridad industrial e higiene del proceso de producción en la empresa INDUHORST, para la reducción de enfermedades profesionales y accidentes laborales para la comercialización de equipos que se diseñan y se producen en las instalaciones de la empresa INDUHORST. Intervienen 6 procesos principales para la producción de maquinarias; cortado, doblado, soldado, perforado, torneado y pintado. A través de la matriz de GTC-45 se detectó los riesgos y peligros a los que están expuestos los trabajadores al realizar cada tarea al momento de desempeñar sus actividades laborales. Para ello se hizo una propuesta de una alternativa de solución que reduzca las enfermedades y accidentes laborales en la empresa, pero para establecer dicha solución se realizaron estudios directamente en el proceso de producción, con los trabajadores y las máquinas para obtener valores y poder evaluar cada riesgo y peligro existente. A través de la identificación de riesgos se determinaron varios riesgos hacia los trabajadores, tales como: Ruido, Mala postura, Caídas, Ergonómico y Movimientos repetitivos.

The research was conducted in several English as a Second Language (ESL) classes at a Midwest American university town. The study participants were 15 international students from various different Secondary Schools who are currently enrolled at this university. Data was collected by using a mixed-methods approach with surveys and follow-up interviews, and was analyzed using descriptive statistics and content analysis. Results have shown that learners’ beliefs and their learning background have an influence on their perceptions of learning activities and teaching methods. In terms of enjoyment of such practices, there was an apparent inclination towards interactive and communicative approaches rather than

 traditional, non-communicative ones, whereas no distinct style was favored in regard to effectiveness.

Las empresas u organizaciones requieren planificar, controlar y evaluar adecuadamente las actividades productivas que se llevan a cabo dentro de su jornada laboral, para lograr los objetivos propuestos dentro de una producción y utilizar los recursos de manera adecuada. Este artículo describe la elaboración de un plan de producción desarrollado para la Comercializadora de granos "San Camilo", dedicado a la compra y venta de granos, un producto del desarrollo agrícola generado a través de la división AGRO para el maíz y, desde el año 2010, para soya. El plan de producción se basa en los factores internos de la empresa que permiten determinar un valor en función de los costos incurridos en las actividades correspondientes establecidas para la comercialización del grano. El artículo muestra en sus resultados una comparación de costos y cómo logran optimizar uno de los recursos indispensables para la empresa.

El presente proyecto se desarrolla debido a su importancia teórico práctico para la empresa Envasadora de agua LiquiAgua por ser una herramienta que permitirá controlar los costos del proceso productivo y por ende conocer la rentabilidad de la empresa. En la medida en que la competitividad es cada vez mayor, la posibilidad de obtener más utilidades con aumentos de precios es cada vez más difícil, por esto la disminución de los costos se ha convertido en la forma más clara para generar mayores utilidades; por esto se dice que los costos son una buena fuente de ingreso y claro está sin que esta disminución de costos lleve a una disminución de la calidad del producto o servicio. Se tomará en cuenta todas las etapas de la producción desde la obtención de la materia prima hasta llegar al consumir final, para lograr un producto inocuo existen ciertos reglamentos que han sido adoptados en varios países para elaboración de productos. El MSF (Medidas Sanitarias y Fitosanitarias), OMC (Organización Mundial del comercio), y las normas del Codex Alimentarius confirman las medidas que se debe tomar para elaborar productos inocuos y poder comercializarlos.
Implementación de los incentivos tributarios en el Ecuador como instrumento para la atracción de la inversión extranjera directa
Authors: Rodriguez Camacho Maria
Published: January 2022

Los estados modernos han empleado los incentivos tributarios para diversos objetivos en materia económica: los países desarrollados para incrementar la inversión en determinado rubro, mientras que los países en desarrollo buscan, esencialmente, captar inversiones extranjeras para fortalecer algún sector considerado estratégico. No obstante, cada vez más economistas y juristas están cuestionando la efectividad de los incentivos tributarios para la reactivación económica y la productividad. El objetivo del estudio es determinar cómo se han implementado los incentivos tributarios en Ecuador, primer paso para formular una conclusión sobre su efectividad. La hipótesis es que la política tributaria en Ecuador ha experimentado una evolución positiva con la nueva Ley de Fomento para la Producción. El método es inductivo porque se basa en un razonamiento en que la verdad de las premisas apoya la conclusión y los materiales analizados son la Ley de Fomento para la productividad (2018) constitución nacional (2008), el Código Orgánico para la Producción, el Comercio y las Inversiones y la Ley Orgánica de Tributación Interna (2010). Como centro de la discusión el debate tradicional discurre sobre la efectividad de los incentivos para la atracción de inversiones al Ecuador. Las opiniones divergen cuando se analizan las cifras de la coyuntura (2018-2019) pero los incentivos forman parte de un plan estructuralmente sólido y con buenas perspectivas de mantenerse en el futuro inmediato. Como conclusión, los incentivos planteados por la Ley de Fomento vigente cumplen con criterios de eficacia, eficiencia y aceptabilidad de la relación de costos y beneficios.
