OBJECTIVE
To evaluate the impact of rigorous WalkRounds on frontline caregiver assessments of safety climate, and to clarify the steps and implementation of rigorous WalkRounds.


DATA SOURCES/STUDY SETTING
Primary outcome variables were baseline and post WalkRounds safety climate scores from the Safety Attitudes Questionnaire (SAQ). Secondary outcomes were safety issues elicited through WalkRounds. Study period was August 2002 to April 2005; seven hospitals in Massachusetts agreed to participate; and the project was implemented in all patient care areas.


STUDY DESIGN
Prospective study of the impact of rigorously applied WalkRounds on frontline caregivers assessments of safety climate in their patient care area. WalkRounds were conducted weekly and according to the seven-step WalkRounds Guide. The SAQ was administered at baseline and approximately 18 months post-WalkRounds implementation to all caregivers in patient care areas.


RESULTS
Two of seven hospitals complied with the rigorous WalkRounds approach; hospital A was an academic teaching center and hospital B a community teaching hospital. Of 21 patient care areas, SAQ surveys were received from 62 percent of respondents at baseline and 60 percent post WalkRounds. At baseline, 10 of 21 care areas (48 percent) had safety climate scores below 60 percent, whereas post-WalkRounds three care areas (14 percent) had safety climate scores below 60 percent without improving by 10 points or more. Safety climate scale scores in hospital A were 62 percent at baseline and 77 percent post-WalkRounds (t=2.67, p=.03), and in hospital B were 46 percent at baseline and 56 percent post WalkRounds (t=2.06, p=.06). Main safety issues by category were equipment/facility (A [26 percent] and B [33 percent]) and communication (A [24 percent] and B [18 percent]).


CONCLUSIONS
WalkRounds implementation requires significant organizational will; sustainability requires outstanding project management and leadership engagement. In the patient care areas that rigorously implemented WalkRounds, frontline caregiver assessments of patient safety increased. SAQ results such as safety climate scores facilitate the triage of quality improvement efforts, and provide consensus assessments of frontline caregivers that identify themes for improvement.
Requirements capture and analysis: the project manager's dilemma
Authors: P. Chatzoglou; Linda A. Macaulay
Year: 2014

This paper is concerned with the goal of all project managers: that of achieving maximum quality with minimum resources. For managers of the requirements capture and analysis phase of a project this is particularly difficult because of the inherent uncertainties and the iterative nature of the process. A survey was undertaken, of 107 projects, to examine the influence of factors relating to project team members, users' attitudes and project management on the ability of project managers to achieve their goal. The results show a relationship between these factors and the time, cost and effort required for the project. The analysis of this relationship is used to suggest possible strategies project managers could adopt in different scenarios. These are: the 'quality first' scenario; the 'limited resources' scenario; and the 'let's finish it no matter what' scenario.

Year: 2024

Since 1921, the Oklahoma Historical Society has published The Chronicles of Oklahoma, a nonfiction journal focused on topics related to the state’s history. In 2020, the Oklahoma Historical Society partnered with the University of North Texas (UNT) Libraries to make the extensive back catalog of quarterly-published issues of the Chronicles publicly available online through the Gateway to Oklahoma History (The Gateway) digital library. The scope of the project eventually expanded to include preserving individual articles in the Gateway to promote their discovery and impact for researchers. This presentation describes the project management practices, workflows, and metadata standards that were used to support the project. It also explores the challenges and highlights the successes of this multi-year preservation project.
Guidelines for teaching with ill-structured real-world engineering problems: insights from a redesigned engineering project management course
Authors: M. P. Pereira Pessôa
Year: 2023

ABSTRACT Real-world design settings can be complex, ill-structured, open and typically uncertain and/or ambiguous about their goals and solution paths. This study contributes to understanding how to work with these types of problems in a course project setting. The main objective of the study is to identify, propose and validate a set of practical guidelines for dealing with ill-structured, open-problem project assignments in courses that teach design engineering or design development planning. A literature review identifies key practices for proposing the guidelines, which are then validated by intervening in an engineering project management master’s course. The intervention took place during the COVID-19 lockdown restrictions with 12 project groups created from 105 enrolled students. During the validation, qualitative and quantitative feedback was gathered from the students, and the results provide positive evidence for achieving the objective. Key to this outcome was the combination of the self-regulation of learning, co-regulation of learning and socially shared regulation of learning. In this sense, the proposed guidelines look promising for redesigning university courses that deal with open problems, thus enhancing students’ capacity for handling uncertainty and ambiguity.
Interaction Multilayer model of Emotional Infection with the Earn Value Method in the Project Management Process
Authors: Sergey Bushuyev; D. Bushuiev; V. Bushuieva
Year: 2020

The article discusses the problems of emotional infection of the stakeholders of the innovation projects with multilayer model. In the process of managing innovative projects, managers try to model creative behavior and are based on creative technologies. Emotional infection is considered as a social and psychological mechanism of transferring the mental mood of the manager to other stakeholders of the innovative communication project, emotional impact in the face of direct contact, and the inclusion of the individual in certain mental states that affect the effectiveness of management. In times of crisis, the emotional behavior of the innovation communication project manager and his infection with the project team is exacerbated by external uncertainty. The stakeholder infection model is based on an understanding of the life cycle of the project manager, which is presented as a curve for personal changes of the manager of innovative communication projects and programs. Emotions are considered in content, reflecting the various aspects and meanings that caused them. To apply the psychophysiological formula for assessing the impact of the emotional state of the stakeholders of innovative communication projects, these influences have been transformed into a competent model for managing these projects. Examples of changes in the competence of the manager and the project team in the case of a wall and asthenic emotions are given
Innovation: The Value of Nurses.
Authors: K. Burke
Year: 2019

When I returned from this year’s Association for Nurses in Professional Development conference in Phoenix, Arizona, I was invigorated and inspired by the leadership and innovation of the nursing professional development (NPD) practitioners. The presentations and the posters addressed many new evidence-based professional development solutions to improve patient care. Thank you to all the colleagues at the conference who shared with me the innovative work they are doing at their organizations. I hope you submit your work to the Journal for Nurses in Professional Development (JNPD). Prior to the start of the conference, the JNPD board held their annual in-personmeetingwhere the board discussed innovative ideas for the future of JNPD. Stay tune for more details! All these discussions have led me to think about the importance of innovation in the role of the NPD practitioner. One of the NPD leadership competencies includes “creating a culture in which innovation and risk-taking are promoted and expected” (Harper & Maloney, 2016, p. 51). In Chapter 9 of “Leadership in ProfessionalDevelopment: An Organizations and System Focus,” by Smith and Harper (2016), Casao and Smith highlight the key role of the NPD practitioner in leading organizational innovation as leaders in program and project management (p. 218). As I was finalizing my editorial for this issue, I was made aware of a recent survey published by the University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing and BDO Center for Health Care Excellence (2019), “Unleashing Nurse-Led Innovation.” The project surveyed two distinct groups, 104 clinical leaders and 172 business leaders, about the future of nursing innovation and its role in their organizations. The results of the survey found that both clinical and business leaders rank skills such as the interface of clinical innovation and technology, design-thinking for process change, and excellence in clinical acumen in the top four most valuable for nurse innovators in their organizations for 2025. But according to the survey, nursing innovation has not been fully unleashed. Less than 46% of business leaders say their C-suite included someone with a nursing background, and only 31% of clinical leaders indicated that they have a designated nursing leader whose primary
Modeling Traffic Signal Operations with Precedence Graphs
Authors: L. Head; D. Gettman; D. Bullock; T. Urbanik
Year: 2007

A series of examples of traffic signal operations with the precedence graph model is presented to illustrate the interactions among phases, intervals, and overlaps. The examples are built up from the simple operation of a T-intersection by adding more complex behaviors, including advance “Walk,” delayed overlap termination indications, and advance flashing warning signals. In each of these extensions the required signal timing behavior is illustrated through the appropriate precedence graph model. The precedence graph approach provides a structured conceptual representation to support the analysis of operational behaviors of controller timing features such as added lost time and required fixed timing intervals that are induced when certain overlap features are enabled. It is believed that the precedence graph modeling approach may provide a mechanism to formalize the often ad hoc interaction between traffic signal controller software development, logic design, and field operations. This improved understanding may ultimately result in a better understood and more robust deployment of innovative signal control logic by utilizing a structure-modeling approach similar to that found in project management techniques such as the critical path method and the program evaluation and review technique.

Centralizing discovery information: from logistics to knowledge at a public organization.
Authors: Manuel Urbano-Cuadrado; O. Rabal; J. Oyarzábal
Year: 2011

Due to the huge amount of data generated in drug discovery programs, their success strongly depends on both the workflows and platforms to manage and, more importantly, to integrate different chemical and biological data sources. At Experimental Therapeutics Program in the Spanish National Cancer Research Center (CNIO), we have addressed our efforts in the design and optimal implementation of those key processes that enable dynamic workflows and interfaces between the different information blocks. Our approach focuses on the development of a common chemical and biological repository (CCBR) that gathers all data that pass quality control criteria. An integral web application (WACBIP) was designed to query against CCBR while providing decision making tools. Currently, our CCBR contains more than 43,000 unique structures as well as experimental data from more than 350 different biological assays. As input sources of the CCBR, we federated a series of Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) which cover sections as follows: chemical synthesis, analytical department, compound logistics, biochemical and cellular data (including high-throughput and high-content screenings; HTS and HCS), computational chemistry (in-silico chemogenomics and physico-chemical profiling) and in-vivo pharmacology. With regard to the last section, an integral In-Vivo Management e-Biobook (IVMB) that handles the entire workflow of in-vivo labs was designed and implemented. Herein we describe the processes and tools that we have developed and implemented, balancing purchase and development, for centralizing discovery information as well as providing decision-making and project management tools - a clear unmet need in public organizations and networks.
Models of National Culture in Information Systems Research
Authors: R. Ali; A. Tretiakov; Barbara J. Crump
Year: 2009

The purpose of this paper is to enhance understanding of how the models of national culture have been used in Information Systems research. Using the top 10 ranking journals, as defined by the Association of Information Systems, we review and categorise 60 papers published over the past 15 years. The essential criterion for selection was that they applied different models of national culture. The findings show that the number of national culture models used in IS research has increased over the years and most of these studies were conducted using a survey. As expected, Hofstede’s dimensions of national culture have been used widely in IS research. It has also been found that models of national culture have been used for various purposes, namely management information systems, communication, knowledge management, project management, IT infrastructure, quality management systems, risk management, leadership, supply chain management and technology acceptance model. We note that in this era of globalisation the increased use of national culture to frame IS research is necessary to understand why IS initiatives may be successful in one country but not realised in another.
Using Distributed Scrum for Supporting an Online Community
Authors: Jörgen Söderback; Stefan Hrastinski; Lena-Maria Öberg

One purpose of higher education is to prepare students for a modern and ever-changing global society characterized by increasing complexity and collaborative environments. Scrum is an agile, widely used framework for project management dealing with the development of complex products. Scrum projects are conducted in small, empowered teams with intense communication, interaction and collaboration between the team members, facilitated by a servant-leader Scrum master. Scrum has been commonly used in professional software development and is also now being adopted in other areas, including education. There have been few studies of the application of Scrum in higher education and very few of them have studied distributed Scrum in an online context. 
An online learning community has several positive effects for students such as increased learning, engagement, retention and lower risks for isolation and dropouts. Participating in and contributing to a team is dependent on a sense of community, which can be difficult to build up in a distributed environment where members are geographically dispersed and do not have the possibility to meet and communicate face to face. 
This study examines to what extent and how distributed Scrum can support building an online learning community, from a student perspective. Twenty students, enrolled in an online course in distributed software development, participated in four Scrum projects as members of distributed Scrum teams, each team consisting of five students. Students' perceptions were investigated by conducting semi-structured interviews. The interview transcripts were analyzed according to Rovai's four dimensions of a classroom community. The results indicate that students were very satisfied with their distributed Scrum projects and that they experienced a high degree of flexibility during the projects. The Scrum process promoted and initiated communication and interaction among students and they learned how to communicate and collaborate effectively in an online environment. The transparency in Scrum was perceived as a key factor to open communication and effective collaboration and also contributed to increasing their motivation and engagement in the projects. Another interesting outcome of this study was understanding the importance of creating a team with members who are similar regarding competence level, ambition and preferences in working schedule.
The Impact of the Sarbanes-Oxley Act on IT Project Management: A Case Study
Authors: Michael Leih
Year: 2005

In 2002, the Sarbanes-Oxley Act was passed into law requiring all U.S. based, publicly traded companies to report on the status of their internal controls governing the reporting of financial information. Because of the close relationship between financial reporting and IT, the requirements of the Sarbanes-Oxley (SOX) Act has also greatly impacted IT Governance and the way IT projects are managed. This study is investigating the impact of SOX on IT Project Management within a large corporation. The study is evaluating three areas of impact: 1) The introduction and formalization of internal controls as defined by the COBIT framework, 2) The positive and negative effects on IT project implementation, and 3) The additional costs to an IT project to maintain compliance to the SOX requirement. In addition, the study also considers if the introduction of internal controls has impacted the organization’s development maturity when evaluated against standard maturity models.
Assessment of noise from equipment and processes at construction sites
Authors: H. Lee; Zhaomeng Wang; K. Lim
Year: 2017

Noise pollution from construction sites has become a major problem for major cities with the continued rapid development as well as redevelopment of cities. These construction sites, in particular for new subway systems, are often near to residential and commercial buildings. A better understanding and characterization of noise profiles will be required for project management and planning as well as environmental impact assessment. In this study, instead of using the typical type 1 sound level meters for the measurement of noise profiles emitted from construction equipment and processes commonly done in construction industry, we attempt to characterize the noise profiles of common construction equipment at their respective noise source using an Acoustic Array or Acoustic Camera. The study also highlighted the significant presence of low-frequency noise at construction sites for some construction equipment and processes. This may have some implications for the design of noise barriers at construction sites.
Automated Generation of CONSORT Diagrams Using Relational Database Software
Authors: Teresa K. O'Leary; June Weiss; B. Toll; C. Brandt; S. Bernstein
Year: 2019

Abstract Background Investigators conducting prospective clinical trials must report patient flow using the Consolidated Standards of Reporting Trials (CONSORT) statement. Depending on how data are collected, this can be a laborious, time-intensive process. However, because many trials enter data electronically, CONSORT diagrams may be generated in an automated fashion. Objective Our objective was to use an off-the-shelf software to develop a technique to generate CONSORT diagrams automatically. Methods During a recent trial, data were entered into FileMaker Pro, a commercially available software, at enrollment and three waves of follow-up. Patient-level data were coded to automatically generate CONSORT diagrams for use by the study team. Results From August 2012 to July 2014, 1,044 participants were enrolled. CONSORT diagrams were generated weekly for study team meetings to track follow-ups at 1, 6, and 12 months, for 960 (92%), 921 (90%), and 871 (88%) participants who were contacted or deceased, respectively. Reasons for loss to follow-up were captured at each follow-up. Conclusion CONSORT diagrams can be generated using a standard software for any trial and can facilitate data collection, project management, and reporting.
Measuring Business Logic Complexity in Software Systems

Many organizations adopt software to support their business process and business logic is embedded in their systems. To meet ever-changing business needs, business logic in software must be continuously changed and renewing the whole system as known as software modernization is performed for systems running for a long time. When modernizing especially large scale system, many developers are involved to deal with large amount of code. To support software modernization, project management is needed and managers use volume information such as software metrics to find hard things, estimate efforts and qualities though when analyzing business logic, existing metrics are not useful because existing metrics do not distinguish business logic from other infrastructure activities. To solve this problem we define business logic complexity to capture business logic from the source code and to quantify how hard it is to understand. First we identify business logic by excluding format checks and by using input and output data in condition and calculation statements. Next, we quantify the degree of complexity of business logic. When making decisions about improving applications, our method makes it possible to prioritize the aspects of the business logic that are complex and hard to understand.
