The problem is exacerbated by the growth in size, complexity and the number of chronic diseases in the NHS. In addition, there is an increase in demand for high quality care, processes and planning. Effective Discharge Planning (DP) requires practitioners to have appropriate, patient personalised and updated knowledge in order to be able to make informed and holistic decisions about a patients’ discharge. This paper examines the role of Knowledge Management (KM) in both sharing knowledge and using tacit knowledge to create appropriate patient discharge pathways. The paper details the factors resulting in inadequate DP, and demonstrates the use of Internet of Things (IoT) and Machine2Machine (M2M) as candidate technologies and possible solutions which can help reduce the problem. The use of devices that a patient can take home and devices which are perused in the hospital generate information, which can serve useful when presented to the right person at the right time, thus harvesting knowledge. The knowledge when fed back can support practitioners in making holistic decisions with regards to a patients’ discharge.展开更多

This paper reviews the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) publication base as an effective solution. The NIST Special Publication 800-66 Revision 1 was an essential standard in US healthcare, which was withdrawn in February 2024 and superseded by SP 800-66 Revision 2. This review investigates the academic papers concerning the application of the NIST SP 800-66 Revision 1 standard in the US healthcare literature. A systematic review method was used in this study to determine current knowledge gaps of the SP 800-66 Revision 1. Some limitations were employed in the search to enforce validity. A total of eleven articles were found eligible for the study. Consequently, this study suggests the necessity for additional academic papers pertaining to SP 800-66 Revision 2 in the US healthcare literature. In turn, it will enhance awareness of safeguarding electronic protected health information (ePHI), help to mitigate potential future risks, and eventually reduce breaches.展开更多

文摘Healthcare security and privacy breaches are occurring in the United States (US), and increased substantially during the pandemic. This paper reviews the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) publication base as an effective solution. The NIST Special Publication 800-66 Revision 1 was an essential standard in US healthcare, which was withdrawn in February 2024 and superseded by SP 800-66 Revision 2. This review investigates the academic papers concerning the application of the NIST SP 800-66 Revision 1 standard in the US healthcare literature. A systematic review method was used in this study to determine current knowledge gaps of the SP 800-66 Revision 1. Some limitations were employed in the search to enforce validity. A total of eleven articles were found eligible for the study. Consequently, this study suggests the necessity for additional academic papers pertaining to SP 800-66 Revision 2 in the US healthcare literature. In turn, it will enhance awareness of safeguarding electronic protected health information (ePHI), help to mitigate potential future risks, and eventually reduce breaches.
文摘Blockchain has recently sparked interest in both the technological and businessfirms.The Internet of Things's(IoT)core principle emerged due to the connectivity of several new technologies,including wireless technology,the Inter-net,embedded automation systems,and micro-electromechanical devices.Manu-facturing environments and operations have been successfully converted by implementing recent advanced technology like Cloud Computing(CC),Cyber-Physical System(CSP),Information and Communication Technologies(ICT)and Enterprise Model,and other technological innovations into the fourth indus-trial revolution referred to as Industry 4.0.Data management is defined as the pro-cess of accumulation in order to make better business decisions,and process,secure and store information about a company.In the incipient model,there are interconnected contrivances and Machine-to-Machine(M2M)interactions,and transaction data are stored on the Blockchain.Security is a challenging aspect that must be punctiliously considered during the design and development phases of a CSP.In this research article,we proposed a Secure and Distributed Framework for Resource Management(SDFRM)in Industry 4.0 environments within a distribu-ted and collaborative Industry 4.0 system,the dynamic and trust-based Distributed Management Framework(DMF)of shared resource access.Such issues are focused by taking into account of the traditional characteristics of IoT/Industrial Internet of Things’(IIoT)-predicated environments,an SDFRM in Industry 4.0 environments within a distributed and collaborative Industry 4.0 system.Also,to ensure strong privacy over the procedures associated with Access Control(AC),a privacy-preserving method is proposed and integrated into the DMF.The proposed DMF,based on blockchain technology and peer-to-peer networks,allows dynamic access management and system governance without using third parties who could be attacked.We worked hard to design and implement the pro-posal to demonstrate its viability and evaluate its performance.Our proposal out-performs the Multichain Blockchain in terms of successful storage transactions with an achieved average throughput of 98.15%.
文摘The existing systems sustained with the investments made require more automation and digital transformation with the continuous advancement of tech-nology.The aviation industry is a sector that is open to more automation and digi-tal transformation,mainly because of the intense competition and the analysis of a large variety of data.The long duration of operations in current airline processes and some processflows cause customer dissatisfaction and cost increase.In this study,the boarding process,which is one of the operational processes of airline transportation and is open to improvement,was discussed.The classical boarding process has been redesigned using Internet of Things technology a model called Boarding 4.0 was created.With Boarding 4.0,it is aimed to design a process where passengers can take their time before boarding more efficiently.In the study,the sub-processes of the Boarding 4.0 model,other processes that the sub-processes interact with,their activities,and data exchange passenger move-ments during the activities are explained in detail.Compared to the classical boarding process and Boarding 4.0 with the fuzzy ahp technique,it has been shown that boarding 4.0 is more advantageous and passenger movement times can be reduced during boarding.As a result of the evaluation made with the fuzzy ahp,it was determined that boarding 4.0 is more advantageous than the classical boarding process.In addition,when the total time of the sub-activities in the board-ing process is calculated,boarding activities for a passenger take 50 min with the classic boarding process and 20 min with Boarding 4.0.Thus,when Boarding 4.0 is used,the passenger gains 30 min.Furthermore,when the calculation is made concerning the airport’s current capacity,two passengers are hosted with the clas-sical boarding process,whilefive passengers are hosted with Boarding 4.0.This acquisition is significant for airports in terms of efficient use of resources.

文摘In order to accommodate the large number of Internet of Things(IoT)connections in mobile networks,Non-Orthogonal Multiple Access(NOMA)has been applied as the resource sharing mechanism in mobile access networks to improve the spectrum efficiency.The NOMA-based resource management for uplink communications comprises two problems,i.e.,user clustering and power&wireless channel allocation.User clustering refers to assigning users in terms of IoT devices to different clusters(where users in the same cluster are sharing the wireless channels to upload their data),and power&wireless channel allocation is to optimize the transmission power of the users and the number of wireless channels allocated to the users in a cluster.The two problems are coupled together,thus making it difficult to solve the NOMA-based resource management problem.In this paper,we propose a QoS-aWarE resourcE managemenT(SWEET)for NOMA algorithm to jointly optimize the user clustering,power management,and wireless channel allocation such that the number of wireless channels is minimized and the data rate requirements of the users can be satisfied.The performance of SWEET is validated via extensive simulations.
文摘In order to solve the problems of poor informationflow,low energy utilization rate and energy consumption data reuse in the heavy equipment industrial park,the Internet of Things(IoT)technology is applied to construct the intelligent energy management and control system(IEMCS).The application architecture and function module planning are analyzed and designed.Furthermore,the IEMCS scheme is not unique due to the fuzziness of customer demand and the understanding deviation of designer to customer demand in the design stage.Scheme assessment is of great significance for the normal subsequent implementation of the system.A fuzzy assessment method for IEMCS scheme alternatives is proposed to achieve scheme selection.Fuzzy group decision using triangular fuzzy number to express the vague assessment of experts is adopted to determine the index value.TOPSIS is modified by replacing Euclidean distance with contact vector distance in IEMCS scheme alternative assessment.An experiment with eight IEMCS scheme alternatives in a heavy equipment industrial park is given for the validation.The experiment result shows that eight IEMCS scheme alternatives can be assessed.Through the comparisons with other methods,the reliability of the results obtained by the proposed method is discussed.
