Influence of Team Information Sharing on Collaborative Value Within Ashoka Fellows' Organizations in Africa
Authors: Mahinda Wamuyu
Published: November 2022

Purpose: The study sought to determine the influence of team information sharing on collaborative value within Ashoka Fellows' Organizations in Africa

Methodology: The study applied pragmatism philosophy to offer several ways to bridge dichotomies in mixed methods approaches to social science. Explanatory sequential mixed-method research design consisting of two distinct phases, namely quantitative and qualitative, was adopted. Both qualitative and quantitative study methods were adopted. In the quantitative study, the target population constituted all the 154 Ashoka Fellows' Organizations working in 19 countries in Africa. Data was collected using a structured questionnaire administered online to the founders (Ashoka Fellows) or the Ashoka Fellows' Organizations' CEOs. One hundred responded by filling out the questionnaire, which translated to a 64.9% response rate. Additionally, qualitative data applied purposive sampling and selected six Ashoka regional team leaders in Africa for in-depth interviews. They all were available for the interviews translating to a 100% response rate. Data analysis techniques combined descriptive and inferential statistics. Statistical Package for Social Sciences and SmartPLS 3 software were used to analyze the collected data.

Findings: Results revealed that the results confirm that team information sharing significantly influences collaborative value within Ashoka Fellows’ Organizations in Africa. Team Information Sharing has a significant influence on collaborative value witn an R2 = 0.300, chi-square X2 (10, N=100) = 63.010, p<.05, SRMR=0.088, Rms-theta=0.224 and NFI=0.805. The null hypothesis was rejected.

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: The study recommends that Team members should ensure the team's information exchange is of good quality as the quality of information sharing that develops collaboration must go beyond necessary factual information to a point where team members can transfer their unique understanding. Also, team members should be willing to share information and engage in sequences of interpretation sharing to build on each other's interpretations and collectively make sense. Teams should embrace timely information sharing, which is critical for collaborative value and the use of technology. To ensure quality and timeliness of information shared, teams should consider both investments in information systems as sharing appropriate information allows the linkage of internal and external knowledge sources by facilitating information flow and providing effective data retrieval mechanisms
The Effects of Natural Disasters on Development: A Case of Uganda
Authors: Barbara Alungat
Published: November 2022

Purpose: To examine the effects of natural disasters on development in Uganda.

Methodology: The study adopted documentary review as a data collection technique in which data is gathered from reports from different sources, journals, magazines, newspapers, institutional archives, reports and articles which have data linked to the research being undertaken (Creswell, 2014). A documentary review checklist was employed to solicit data related to an examination of effects of natural disasters on development in Uganda from the Ministry of Disaster Preparedness and Refugees archives. This method was preferred by the researcher over other methods because was able to gain permission to access information from different department at the Ministry of Disaster and preparedness archives. In addition, using document analysis takes out the personal aspect of the effect a researcher might have on an individual during an interview.

Findings: Epidemics have been the most important public health emergency in the districts of Uganda and neighboring countries.  The situation has been worsened by the outbreak of COVID-19 being first reported in Wuhan, China in December 2019 (WHO, 2019). The most threatening epidemics in Uganda include Ebola, Marburg, Cholera HIV/AIDS and Malaria but the discussion on epidemics here will be limited to Ebola, Malaria and crop and animal diseases (Mullen et al, 2020). Floods and landslides are another type of natural disasters that affect development in Uganda leaving direct destruction or impacts on assets (Botzen et al, 2019). In addition, famine is the most dominant   natural disasters Uganda faces from time to time despite having the necessary conditions for food security like fertile land and a favorable climate for agriculture as a large part of the population across the country fall victim to famine regularly (Government of Uganda, 2010). Disasters continue disrupting lives, livelihood and leaving adverse effects on individuals, communities, economies and even governments and ultimately affecting development.

Unique Contribution to Theory, Practice and Policy: It’s therefore recommended that disaster management should focus on mitigation against identifiable Threats. The disaster management should also create more robust systems that can withstand a variety of known and unknown shocks. The disaster management theory may be used to anchor future studies in the disaster management sector

Authors: Rachel Sharon Ambrose  , Selvakumaran Pannirselvam  , Thirumaaran U
Published: November 2022

Airway Assessment is essential in pre anesthetic assessment. Anticipating and preparing for difficulty in airway management is crucial to avoid airway catastrophes. Routine pre operative airway examination usually includes mouth opening and dentition, Mallampati classification, thyromental distance and neck movements. Neck circumference is a quick bedside test to determine difficult laryngoscopy. Increased tongue thickness and skin to epiglottis distance affects performance of laryngoscopy and tracheal intubation increasing the risk of difficult airway. Presently there is a search for non-invasive and accurate tools to overcome limitations of clinical airway assessment tests. Ultrasonography has been evolving as a useful device for airway assessment especially soft tissue structures in anterior surface of neck. Here we studied the measurement of neck circumference and ultrasound measurement of tonguethickness and skin to epiglottis distance as predictors for difficult intubation. The Aim of the study is to predict difficulty in intubation by measuring neck circumference, thickness of tongue and thickness of skin to epiglottis. Prospective observational study, 120 patients posted for surgery under general anesthesia, Department of anesthesia, Meenakshi medical college, Kanchipuram. After institutional Human ethical committee clearance, 120 Patients were screened during preoperative assessment for undergoing procedures under general anaesthesia. Neck circumference and other airway parameters were measured with measuring tape and distance between Skin to epiglottis and tongue thickness were measured with ultrasound linear probe. Patients were grouped into Group E( Easy Intubation) whose Cormack-lehane grade was 1 and 2 and Group D ( Difficult intubation) whose Cormack-lehane grade was 3 and 4. SPSS version 16 was used for statistical analysis. There was no statistical significance seen between age, sex, height among easy and difficult intubation but significance was seen with weight (p <0.05), Thyromental distance(p<0.05) and Sterno-mental distance(p<0.05). High significance was seen in Distance between skin to epiglottis distance(p<0.001), Tongue thickness(p<0.001) and Neck Circumference(p<0.001) in difficult intubation cases. Neck circumference and ultrasonographic measurement of tongue thickness and skin to epiglottis can avoid unanticipated difficult intubation.

Leukemia is type of cancer in blood which impacts the lymphatic framework and the bone marrow and also impacts white blood cells. Leukemia, in contrast to other types of cancer, does not produce solid tumors; instead, it produces a huge number of aberrant white blood cells that crowd out the healthy blood cells. Machine learning algorithms that are widely utilized in the treatment of leukemia, whether it is to classify the various forms of leukemia or to determine whether a patient has the disease. It is a malignant kind of cancer that results in a number of medical issues. Expert hematologists and pathologists manually examine blood samples under the microscope to make a diagnosis. Techniques like image processing and pattern recognition can be utilized to help these experts. In order to attain excellent performance in the categorization of malignant leukocytes challenge, this paper suggests straightforward modifications to conventional neural network topologies. Consequently, there is considerable interest in the trustworthy and precise recognition of nonmalignant and malignant cells. Leukemia can be automatically detected using computer-aided diagnostic (CAD) models, which can help doctors and be useful for leukemia early identification. In this single-center study, we attempted to develop a deep learning model for classification of leukemic B-lymphoblasts. Data augmentation methods were utilized to manage the little dataset size and an exchange learning technique was utilized to accelerate learning and upgrade the presentation of the recommended network in order to create a trustworthy and accurate deep learner. The outcomes demonstrate that our suggested approach surpassed seperate networks with a test accuracy of 95.59% in the Leukemic B-lymphoblast examination, and was caable to merge characteristics extracted from the top deep learning models.

Agriculture: The Backbone of the African Economy
Authors:   West Virginia University Morgantown, West Virginia, United States, Banda Paul
Published: November 2022

Agricultural production, of both crop and animal husbandry, has been part and parcel of the livelihoods of African societies since about 8,000 BCE (Before the Common Era). The early focus was on the production of cereals (such as wheat, millet, and sorghum) and root crops (especially yams). There was also a transition towards the domestication of wild animals such as cattle, goats, sheep, and camels. Such transitions occurred in different phases in various parts of the continent. To date, agriculture remains the backbone of most sub-Saharan African economies, contributing an average of about 25 percent of the Gross Domestic Product (GDP). This exploratory research examines the role of agriculture as the backbone of the African economy.

Published: November 2022

The pipelined processor architecture is the best way to increase instruction-level parallelism, and thus, understanding its operation is one of the keys in computer architecture learning. To help with the leaning process, we have devised a series of pipeline simulation methodologies. This article presents one of them – a simulation methodology of hazard detection and forwarding in MIPS32 pipelined floating-point units. Our implementation approach is using the Node-RED programming environment, an event-driven dragand-drop system for designing data flows with business logic. In addition, to implement sophisticated operations not supported by Node-RED, we also employ WebAssembly code and the Rust language. We simulate not only the standard 5-stage pipelined MIPS ISA but also pipelined (addition, subtraction, and multiplication) and unpipelined (division) floating-point operations. Our study focuses mainly on hazard detection, which is required to ensure program correctness, as well as forwarding used to improve system performance. Lastly, we design a dashboard interface to visually represent the pipeline stages and CPU status during execution. Using the dashboard interface, MIPS32 machine code can be loaded into our simulator from hexadecimal text files. We verified that our simulator is handling hazard detection and forwarding correctly. A screenshot of the dashboard interface is included that shows all the stages of floating-point pipelines.

Published: November 2022

Las sociedades actuales sufren modificaciones drásticas en los hábitos de consumo, en parte por los procesos globalizadores que propician la homogenización alimentaria y consecuentemente la pérdida de alimentos locales y tradicionales (AT). En este contexto, el consumidor al ser el último eslabón de la cadena agroalimentaria es un actor clave para la revalorización simbólica de estos alimentos. El objetivo de esta investigación fue identificar los motivos del consumo de alimentos tradicionales del consumidor urbano en México. Se aplicó un cuestionario basado en el FCQ a 1152 consumidores de AT. La información se analizó con estadística multivariada, específicamente Análisis de Factores y Análisis de Clúster. Se usaron las pruebas no paramétricas, KrusKal-Wallis y Mann-Whitney, para identificar diferencias estadísticas entre grupos. Se identificaron siete motivos: i) Control de peso y naturalidad, ii) Emotividad y familiaridad, iii) Practicidad e industrialización, iv) Hedonismo, v) Nostalgia, vi) Neofilia y vii) Economía; y tres grupos de consumidores: a) “Industrializado preocupado por su peso y lo natural”, b) “Industrializado inconsciente” y c) “Industrializado con neofilia”. Los motivos a los que se les da mayor importancia son a la industrialización y practicidad y, neofilia. Se observa que no hay conflicto en el consumo de alimentos tradicionales con alimentos prácticos e industrializados, es decir, se acepta que los alimentos tradicionales pueden ser industrializados. Estos aspectos deben considerarse en la industria, procesos de valorización y políticas públicas sobre alimentación, para preservar los alimentos tradicionales.

Published: November 2022

Мета. У статті проаналізовано теоретичні та прикладні аспекти проблем-обмежувачів повномасштабного та ефективного входження туристично-рекреаційної сфери України до системи міжнародного туризму.

Результати. Початок інституційного оформлення сучасного туризму як галузі збігся з важкою кризовою ситуацією як у ній самій, так і в країні. Це означає, що вихід туризму з кризи проходитиме на тлі розробки та становлення стратегічної моделі управління галуззю, включаючи створення цілої низки нормативних механізмів і методологічних інструментів управління. Розмежування понять «рекреант» і «турист» дозволить у національній політиці визначити пріоритети держави на майбутнє, враховувати специфіку вітчизняної рекреаційної інфраструктури та менталітет нашого рекреаційного попиту: в Україні та в ближньому зарубіжжі основну масу становлять рекреанти і лише незначна частина – туристи, які переміщаються в просторі заради задоволення та пізнання. Звідси, головним акцентом у туристичній політиці України була й залишається орієнтація на рекреанта. Саме цією обставиною пояснюється слабкий розвиток внутрішнього та зовнішнього туризму, відсутність відповідної інфраструктури та ненав’язливість туристського сервісу в нашій країні, домінування потоків із ближнього зарубіжжя. Виявлено та схарактеризовано соціально-географічні вектори адаптації туристського бізнесу країни на світовому ринку туристських послуг.

Наукова новизна. Запропоновано методичну та організаційну схему побудови цільової програми реструктуризації туристично-рекреаційної сфери України на основі реалізації викладених у статті адаптивних векторів.

Практична цінність. Визначено шляхи вирішення на державному та регіональному рівнях проблем-обмежувачів реального та ефективного просування вітчизняного туристичного продукту до системи міжнародного туризму.

Purpose. This study examined the effect of information and communications technology (ICT) on the efficiency of deposit money banks in Nigeria during the period 2006–2020. Specifically, the effect of volume of transaction on automated teller machine, mobile banking, internet banking and point of sale terminals on the efficiency of deposit money banks was evaluated.

Results. The result of Granger Causality test revealed that information and communications technology channels of Automated Teller Machine (ATMs), mobile banking, internet banking, and point of sale (POS) terminals have no significant effect on the efficiency of deposit money banks in Nigeria. Volume of transactions on ATMs, mobile banking, and POS terminal have negative insignificant relationship with efficiency of deposit money banks. On the other hand, volume of transactions on internet banking was negatively and non-significantly linked with efficiency of deposit money banks in Nigeria. The non-significant effect of ATMs transactions points to the need for deposit money banks in Nigeria to ensure availability of money in the ATMs machines.

Scientific novelty. This study is pursued within the framework of the Technology Acceptance Model. The theory is relevant as it explains user’s acceptance of ICT strategies and usage in an organizational context. This finding will add credence to the Technology Acceptance Model postulation on information and communications technology and efficiency of the banking industry.

Practical value. This research will be of tremendous importance to the banks’ staff as well as managers (top management staff) and investor in the banking industry. This is by the way of providing valuable information on the issues and possible factors that can influence deposit money banks efficiency. The knowledge gained from this study will help make efficient use of information and communications technology gadgets. It will aid the efficiency and growth of banks, and possible provide investment in banking assets.
