Comprehensive Review of the Impact of Advanced Technology Adoption on Work and Continuous Improvement
No full textTechnology advances are changing how companies and their employees do their respective jobs. The intervention of technology has revolutionized the way jobs are conceptualized, discussed, performed, and delivered. This analysis aims to deliver a summary of the impact of the adoption of advanced technology on job characteristics and the impact on job demand and continuous improvement, which can act as a reference for theorists and practitioners to map, research, and analyze the effect of technology on work systems and productivity. By presenting a systematic review of the literature along with several avenues for future research, we hope that this research will contribute to job demand and ongoing research. A total of 30 articles were reviewed from a total generated article database of 335, which were systematically selected from different academic databases between 2001 and 2021. The review signifies the role of technology in influencing work complexities, privacy, workload, workflow interruptions, manual work, role expectations, and developmental opportunities. This study is pivotal in substantiating the influence of technology in work systems, besides furnishing variables and themes for further studies in the area.

Newly isolated sporopollenin microcages from Platanus orientalis pollens as a vehicle for controlled drug delivery
No full textWOS: 000403381200030PubMed: 28532028Sporopollenin microcages were produced from the pollens of Platanus orientalis. Paracetamol was loaded into the microcages. Pollen, sporopollenin, paracetamol and paracetamol-loaded sporopollenin microcages were characterized with FT-IR, TGA and SEM. The analytical analyses demonstrated that sporopollenin microcages were structurally intact, highly reticulated and thermally stable. The loading efficiency of the sporopollenin microcages was found to be 8.2% using the passive loading technique and 23.7% via evaporating loading technique. In vitro release and kinetics studies were performed to test the suitability of sporopollenin microcages for loading. These studies revealed that sporopollenin from P. orientalis can be suggested as a suitable carrier for drug loading and controlled release studies.

CASEPEDIA: Volume 1: Case Studies in Management
No full textCasepedia: Volume 1 contains 15 cases/caselets, each one unique in its way. They deal with specific situations, specific problems, and decisions to be made in such a scenario. Each of them represents a business scenario that envelops management situations-problems decisions. Cases/caselets are typical situations, problems, and decisions faced by anyone related to the management field. Hence, these can be a handy tool for the executives and students (to be managers), who might find themselves in a similar situation tomorrow. These cases require the instructors and the readers to approach and go through them in a manner that they reflect upon; how should this be handled? The prime focus of each case/caselet is that it is concerned with the managerial situation, problem, and decision that any organization or a person might face. The instructor and students can read, discuss these case studies and gain insight into complex situations and human behavior in any organization. These cases deal with the problems that occur in the real world and can be used during classroom discussion and serve as a topic for writing a paper. The prime feature of Casepedia: Volume 1 is that it garners the information that the readers can utilize to convert the text that it contains into actual knowledge acquired when management disciple is exercised
The Application Of Polymer Particles In Industrial Processes
No full textThe research in this thesis considers novel innovative developments in established
industrial processes that involve the use of recyclable polymeric particles as a
partial replacement for aqueous media and chemicals. The application of the
technology typically leads to water savings of over 80% and chemical savings of
over 25%. These industrial processes may be characterised in that are considered
inefficient and wasteful but nevertheless are considered economically vital. These
diverse industries including laundry cleaning, leather manufacturing, textile
garment processing, effluent treatment and metal beverage can manufacture.
The outcomes of this research have made significant contributions to industrial
best practice in such industries. In terms of academic research, the knowledge
created in this thesis provides the basis for the application of CFD-DEM modelling
to understand complex multi-phase and multi-component systems. In particular,
the thesis advocates the application of the Free Surface Lattice Boltzmann Method
for creating highly accurate simulations of multi-phase flow. In addition, the thesis
offers opportunities for further research in novel plasma micro-reactors and their
applications in diverse fields such as chemical synthesis, chemical engineering and
biotechnology. The nature of the research is multi-disciplinary, and involved
investigations across several fields including applied mathematics, biochemistry,
chemistry, physics, and engineering. The projects also involved scale up from
laboratory, pilot plant and full commercial scale production trials. Primary
objectives were investigated through a series of six published patents. The three
patents relating to the development of novel leather and textile processes were
solely conceived and executed by the author. The patent related to the
development of the plasma micro-reactor for ozone synthesis was conceived and
executed jointly by the author and Professor Will Zimmerman (Sheffield University).
The two patents related to the development of a novel metal cleaning and
treatment process was conceived and executed jointly by the author and Dr.

Advanced technologies enabled human resources functions: Benefits, challenges, and functionalities: A systematic review
No full textHuman resource information systems have enhanced monitoring, documenting, and recording functions for organizations, and consequently have accelerated swift completion of routine processes. This change demonstrates the critical impact of adopting and using advanced technologies in the human resources function; in multiple functional gamut’s, particularly in recruitment, selection, training and development. This manuscript presents a systematic review of academic articles on the impact of adopting and using advanced technologies in the human resource management function. The current review draft considered a total of 1246 academic articles and aggregated review of 101 articles to present a classification framework with three distinct dimensions: Advanced technologies-enabled human resources benefits, which give an overview of the main benefits of using advanced technologies within this sector. Advanced technology-enabled human resources challenges, which give an overview of the main challenges that have been faced by using advanced technologies within this sector. Advanced technologies-enabled human resources functionalities, which give an overview of the main functionalities that have been added by using advanced technologies within this sector. Implications for future research and their directions are identified in the areas of value-added human services for decision-making, security, and privacy for customer and organization data, monitoring features, and creative IT service delivery models
Protect Against Phishing Scams
No full textAbstract: Phishing is an act of luring unsuspecting recipient of a message into revealing information which can be used against the recipient. Email is the most common medium of creating a Phishing attack against individuals and organizations. Phishing is a type of social engineering attempt, usually via emails, designed to trick the recipient. These attacks often result in malicious software getting deployed, steal user data including credentials or financial data, and victimize the entire infrastructure for ransom etc. First step in preventing this attack is to identify what a Phishing attempt is, to report it, and take similar actions for others. The golden rule of prevention is when you are in doubt, do not open that email, download its attachments or click on any hyperlinks inside.
Keywords: Phishing, Spam, Email, Malware, Social Engineering.
