Authors: Hazmir Zainal; Siti Wahida Amanullah (Corresponding Author); Shamsudin Ibrahim; Hendon Abdullah
Year: 2023

This paper explores the characteristics of open leadership to support academic library leaders in promoting open science. It also aims to identify the existing leadership practices related to the implementation of open science from the viewpoint of Malaysian academic library leaders. The research employs a quantitative approach, utilizing online surveys distributed among 50 leaders from Malaysian public and private academic libraries. The study is anchored in the Open Leadership Framework, encompassing three key practices: design (contextualization), build (structure and system creation), and empower (personal leadership skills). Open leadership, viewed as a response to technological advancements and the use of multimedia communication tools, is framed within the principles, practices, and skills that communities can leverage to achieve shared goals. The findings from the design principle indicate unanimous agreement among respondents on the importance of collaboration, both internally and externally, for the success of the open science agenda, aligning with the principles of community interactions. In the build principle, all respondents share the belief that libraries should implement training and competence development programs, aligning with mentoring principles. This adherence corresponds to the principles of commons-based production, emphasizing the encouragement of publication in open-access journals, and project management, highlighting the pivotal role of libraries in determining the university's open data repository. In the empowerment principle, a total response of 61.5 percent under the "makes connection" principle, emphasizes the need for collaboration between the library, the university's Information Technology Center, and the Research Management Center to provide researcher profiles. This study not only provides insights into the current landscape of open leadership practices among Malaysian academic library leaders but also offers valuable implications for fostering collaboration, training initiatives, and empowerment strategies in the realm of open science. By understanding and embracing these principles, academic institutions and libraries can navigate the evolving scholarly environment, effectively contributing to the advancement of open science practices.

Authors: Sarah Collier; Elizabeth Breeden
Year: 2023

Background: Project management (PM) is a desired skill for pharmacists regardless of their practice settings. However, PM skills often develop as a by-product of the pharmacy curriculum rather than by design. This study describes an immersive, active learning exercise aimed at introducing PM skills and methods to student pharmacists.   
Methods: A didactic lecture and team-based case to evaluate a technology purchase for a small-scale, independent pharmacy was implemented in a second-year Healthcare Informatics course. Teams applied PM concepts to task completion timelines, budget constraints, and stakeholder engagement. A subset of students (N=36) participated in the research study to evaluate intervention impact.   
Results: A net positive shift in student perceptions and confidence was observed following exposure to the skill and methods of applying PM in the active learning experience. Notably, student appreciation grew for the PM skillset relative to pharmacy as did their openness to additional PM training.
Conclusion: PM is a marketable skill, and it is foundational to any area of pharmacy practice. Herein, an active learning exercise is described to meet the objective of introducing PM principles and methodology to student pharmacists. The competencies gained will be useful in navigating the demands of the professional curriculum and their future practice.

Latent Errors and Visible Earned Value: How the Evolutionary Model Integrates Earned Value Metrics with Project System Dynamics
Authors: J. M. Nevison; Karim J. Chichakly
Year: 2021

A project model is presented that weaves together ideas from earned value project management and systems dynamics. It is able to adjust to increasingly unhealthy actual project behaviors in ways that preserve the signature pattern of the staffing histograms observed in the real world and provide a tool for managers to correct projects that are not meeting the plan. Starting from the planned staffing histogram and the project performance baseline, the model captures the delay and cost of experience dilution, includes the unplanned-for effort that is revealed in the typical pattern of the Cost Performance Index, assesses progress using the actual cost to date and the earned value to date, and adjusts staffing, scope, or both, to complete the project on schedule. A new method of approximating work remaining, called project-to-date, is shown to track the planned staffing histogram better than the commonly used fraction-complete method.

Teaching software project management using agile paradigm
Authors: P. Fitsilis; Alex Lekatos
Year: 2017

Agile software engineering methods have recently emerged as a new and different way of developing software as compared to the traditional methodologies. Universities already started to teach agile software engineering, courses on agile methods at the undergraduate and graduate levels however the correct teaching approach is still under research. This study is addressing the problem of agile teaching, its efficiency as perceived by academics and students and finally how the future software developers will acquire the skills required by the software industry. In order to answer to this question a survey was done among current and former computer science students, gathering data from 200 students that attended university in the past 5 years. Most of these students have previously attended a course meant to teach agile methods through the completion of a capstone project and they were required to provide feedback regarding their views on the agile methods used as well as the method of teaching.
A Two-Stage Algorithm Based on 12 Priority Rules for the Stochastic Distributed Resource-Constrained Multi-Project Scheduling Problem With Multi-Skilled Staff
Authors: Yining Yu; Zhe Xu; Song Zhao
Year: 2023

In practical multi-skilled resource-constrained multi-project management, the activity duration is often affected by some factors (e.g., rework, increased workload), leading to uncertainty. Moreover, multiple projects are often managed under a distributed decision-making environment. To deal with uncertain activity durations in distributed multi-project management with multi-skilled staff, this paper studies a stochastic distributed resource-constrained multi-project scheduling problem with multi-skilled staff (MS-SDRCMPSP). In a distributed decision-making environment, a two-stage model with local scheduling and global coordination stages is established to describe MS-SDRCMPSP. A two-stage algorithm with 12 priority rules (TSA-12PRs) is proposed, these 12 priority rules are composed of 4 activity priority rules and 3 resource priority rules. In the local schedule stage, 4 activity priority rules (PRs) are applied to obtain the local schedule plan. In the global coordination phase, we develop 3 resource PRs based on variable neighborhood search (VNS), of which VNS is used to solve the execution order of conflicting projects, and 3 resource PRs are developed to formulate multi-skilled resource assignment strategies. Based on the multi-skilled instances adapted from benchmark instances, we evaluate the performance of the 12 PRs on different instances. The experiment results show that two PRs among 12 PRs perform better than other PRs in all-size instances. Comparing the two-stage algorithm with better two PRs with other approaches in literatures, we find that our method performs better than other approaches, especially in large-size instances. In addition, further experiments show that our method is more conducive to shortening the CPU runtime on distributed problems than centralized methods.

Effectively and efficiently allocating scarce project resources continues to challenge most organizations—even those with advanced project management capabilities. Conventional project management generates a baseline schedule at the start of a project, assuming all aspects of a project are known with certainty and remain static during the project’s implementation. When projects encounter changes such as scope, underestimation in project activity durations, or unexpected risks, disturbances occur causing the actually realized activity times to differ from the planned ones. This leads to unstable schedules and, oftentimes, undesirable and unexpected project outcomes including project completion delays. In the article, “Robust Resource Allocation Decisions in Resource-Constrained Projects,” Filip Deblaere, Erik Demeulemeester, Willy Herroelen, and Stijn Van de Vonder propose a reactive scheduling policy in the presence of activity duration variability that requires the resource allocation to remain constant. These authors present three integer programming–based heuristics and one constructive procedure for making the resource allocation decisions in such a way that schedule stability is achieved. Compared to other activity uncertainty project scheduling approaches, baseline schedule stability has been enhanced through proper resource allocation rather than insertion of time buffers. Not only can their robust approach provide stability when projects are subject to disruptions, deploying their methods can enhance the stability of multiproject schedules in organizations desiring stability in the assignment of their most critical resources to projects. In many ways this research extends the well-established project scheduling research to new directions for researchers interested in innovative project management approaches that can directly impact managerial practices through improved execution of dynamic projects.
