Since 2011, the organisational and management process of the Italian Prison Administration has started to change. The Open section and Dynamic supervision measures introduced into the Italian penitentiary system, requires that all prison workers participate in the observation and treatment of the prisoners’ activities, carried out within a multidisciplinary perspective. This may imply a significant increase, in both the workload and possible sources of stress for prison workers and, therefore, hinder the organizational change.

Abstract:
Crowdsourcing is an increasingly used model to outsource certain tasks to be carried out by external experts on the Web. Especially when lacking experience or expertise with certain task types, crowdsourcing offers a convenient way to receive instant support. In this paper, we introduce an in-house enterprise crowdsourcing model, which leverages the crowdsourcing concept and transfers it to traditional organizations. Here, a company's staff is considered a crowd that — besides its regularly assigned tasks — can also receive tasks from colleagues from other departments and across hierarchical s

Abstract:
In higher education, ethical principles should guide administrators to develop policies and procedures that are just and fair to faculty, administrators, staff, and students and, as well, consider the needs of the various stakeholders affected by them. One example of a process that should be planned and carried out in an ethical way is the tenure-track process for faculty members. The purpose of this chapter is to discuss ethical issues and challenges institutions of higher education face in the tenure process and in socializing new full-time tenure track faculty members into academe. The authors discuss the acculturation process into the academy, then focus on interpersonal interactions and relationships, including mentoring and other supportive relationships and gender and minority issues that may affect the tenure process and acculturation into the academy. They conclude with future concerns and discussion of the ethical considerations for socializing faculty members into academe.

Abstract:
The main objective is to help physicians carry out those aspects of clinical trials described in this book. . . .Each individual involved in conducting a trial should be qualified by education, training, and experience to perform his or her respective task(s). . . . . . . —[ICH-GCP 2.8]. . . It is hardly rational to expect people to do things properly unless they are shown how, so that the importance of formal training and education for everyone involved with the pharmaceutical industry should be self-evident. The perpetuation of bad habits by those who are poorly trained and educated, whether in pharmaceutical companies or at investigator sites, is one of the root causes of the inefficiencies in drug development. Yet, while few people (whether or not they actually educate people properly) would dispute the importance of well-trained employees, it is uncommon for most companies to insist that all of those upon whom they depend are properly trained as well. Among those who are rarely trained to meet the required standards of excellence are CRO staff and investigators and their site staff. Negotiations with CROs rarely involve an assessment of how the various tasks are performed and whether or not they are carried out to the standards expected by the sponsor staff. This is not to imply that sponsor employees are better at what they do than CRO staff. What is true, however, is that sponsor employees should know how to do things the way the sponsor wants them done, which in turn should correspond to the sponsor’s notion of excellence. CROs will always profess to have all the processes requested by a sponsor, so that a laissez-faire attitude pervades negotiations. However, CROs quite understandably have their own ways of working, and unless alternatives are specified contractually, what the CRO does is what the sponsor gets. The next logical step after specifying what is wanted is to provide the necessary training for CRO staff. Where education and training are most needed and are carried out most poorly is in the case of clinical trial investigators.

Abstract:
This chapter explores the Committee on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of their Families (MWC). Since its establishment in January 2004, the MWC has carried out very significant work. However, its task remains a difficult one for three main reasons of an institutional, normative, and practical nature. First, the Committee must find a place among a broad range of actors with concurring and sometimes conflicting mandates. Second, the rights of migrant workers and their families are governed by a complex set of overlapping norms enshrined in numerous instruments. Such a dense normative framework requires careful and harmonized guidance in interpreting the International Convention on the Protection of the Rights of All Migrant Workers and Members of their Families (ICRMW). Third, the most serious difficulty encountered by the Committee is linked to the limited number of states parties to the ICRMW.

Abstract:
In this paper, the authors present a business rules-based decision support system for the allocation of traumatized patients. The assignment of patients to vehicles and hospitals is a task that requires detailed up-to-date information. At the same time, it has to be carried out quickly. The authors propose supporting medical staff with an IT system. The proposed system could be used in cases of mass incidents, as it is problematic, but essential, to provide all injured with adequate healthcare as fast as possible. The contribution is a system based on business rules, which is a novel approach in this context. Its feasibility is proven by prototypic implementation. In this paper, the authors describe the development project’s background as well as the system’s requirements and implementation details. The authors present an exemplary scenario to show the strengths of the proposed approach.

The study investigated the accessibility of library services to patrons with disabilities at Bindura University of Science Education (BUSE). The study was carried out because, since the commissioning and the movement of all BUSE library services to the new library, there has not been any study to determine how accommodative the library is to patrons with disabilities. The study made use of International Federation of Libraries and Associations (IFLA) access to libraries for persons with disabilities checklist as its theoretical framework. The study recommended that for BUSE library to improve the accessibility of library services to patrons with disabilities it must craft an institutional policy for people with disabilities at BUSE, provide more resources in alternative formats, as well as provide assistive technologies through establishing a disability centre for patrons with disabilities, training of library staff members to better equip them to serve patrons with disabilities, and physical accessibility of the library by patrons with disability must be improved.

Full text
Abstract:
Comprehensive disaster response processes need to be managed and progress communicated to avoid ineffective management such as duplication with stakeholders, amendments as a result of leaders’ incomplete instructions, and waiting without instruction from the EOC (Emergency Operation Center). As there is existing research on standardization and systematization of disaster response processes, a pure paper-based SOP (Standard Operation Procedure) is challenging to use in actual and practical situations concerning the standard workflow based on the SOP. For effective disaster management, this study developed a Business Operation Support System (BOSS). The BOSS characteristics have the standard workflow chart based on the related documents and experiences, such as the SOP, concerning manuals/documents, past experiences, and knowledge. The overview, checkpoints, necessary documents, related information systems linked to the disaster management plan, and document formats are defined in every workflow. Even for the young or non-experienced individuals, the BOSS can support the responders through the processes for necessary actions during disasters. This research aims to compare the effect of responses to the 2019 massive rain disaster in Kawasaki city, with or without the BOSS. First,a comprehensive workflow focusing on shelter management under the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) workshop with Kawasaki city staff and community people in the BOSS was created. Second, experiments (with or without the BOSS) were carried out to analyze the differences and the BOSS effect. “With the BOSS” means that the responders can follow the workflow in the BOSS for shelter management. “Without the BOSS” means that the conventional paper-based manuals are used for the operations. Two types of manuals in Kawasaki city were used; one guides the expected shelter management points, and the other contains the explanation about COVID-19. Members of both teams comprise one leader and two staff. As a result of the experiments, the big difference between the two teams is the leader’s behavior. Because the BOSS team leader instructed the different staff works following the BOSS workflow, the BOSS team responded to more kinds of works compared to the manual team. The role of all members of the BOSS team was evident. On the other hand, the manual team responded to one work by all members, including the leader, without the leader’s instruction. Due to no instruction from the leader, a period of waiting was observed in the next work manual. This research obtained that the leader’s instructions’ effect caused the effective responses by quantitative analysis of the demonstrative experiment. For future research, the leader’s behavior and decision-making should be analyzed for BOSS’s effective operation and team-building.

Abstract:
There is an ever-increasing use of computers and applications used by educators for delivering course material. The term ‘courseware’ has been applied to the comprehensive software available to manage many aspects of the delivery process. Until recently, the main thrust of such software has been towards the delivery process and the incorporation of educational material. However, subject management is also an important task carried out by the subject coordinator, and the role it plays in the overall course delivery process should not be underestimated. Although the subject administrative tasks are usually transparent to some degree, if they are performed inefficiently, they become immediately obvious and in the worst case can distract students and staff from the learning process. An instructional system must be backed up by an efficient subject administration system. One administrative task that can consume much of a subject coordinator’s time is assignment management. Assignment management involves collection, date stamping, redistribution to tutors for marking, collation of results, and return of assignments to students. Many such computerized systems have been previously developed, but due to the nature of the infrastructure they were designed for, their use has been awkward and they are not easily transferred from system to system. With the development of the Web since the early 1990s, we now have a ‘standard’ platform used by education and the general community that allows us to build platform independent systems to implement assignment management functionality. Such software provides tangible benefits to both students and subject coordinators.

Abstract:
In general, modern governments invest only a small portion of the national income to the generation of new knowledge. In the United Kingdom, the Department of Science and Industrial Research carried out this task until 1965. Then the Science and Technology Act changed responsibility for the curiosity-driven research to five Research Councils which are funded through the Department of Education and Science. In 1993, a White Paper, Realizing Our Potential called for the reorganization of the Research Councils. This chapter discusses the struggles of the establishment and recognition of the need for Council for Research in the Humanities. In 1961, the British Academy suggested for the creation of Council for Research in the Humanities, however it was not granted in the legislation made in 1965. Instead, a separate Research Council for social science was established, which opened up the possibility of creating a separate Research Council for Humanities. In 1990s, discussions on the reorganization of UK research funding reopened the question of how the government funds and supports research in humanities. It also opened talks for the establishment of a freestanding Humanities Research Council. Sometime in 1992, after deliberate considerations of the possible contributions of a separate research council on humanities, a recommendation for the establishment of Humanities Research Council was made. However, on the same year, the government decided not to set up an agency that would support humanities, and, in 1993, the government made a firm decision not to include humanities in any form to the circle of Research Councils — a decision which irked humanities scholars and academy members.

DETECTION METHODS 3.1 Presentation of odor stimulus 3.1.1 Method of limits The most used method for establishing an absolute threshold in en­ vironmental studies is the Method of Limits. In its classical form, the stimuli are presented in alternating ascending and descending series, starting at different points to avoid having the subject fall into a rou­ tine. During this procedure there is a chance that adaptation phenomena may develop. An effort to minimize these effects is for example to use only an ascending series of stimuli. The threshold value for each sepa­ rate test series is defined as a point in-between the last undetected and the first detected point in the stimulus continuum. A modification of the method of limits is the "up and down" method. A stimulus is presented: if the response is positive, the next lower sti­ mulus is presented, if it is negative, the next higher is presented and so on. The primary advantage is, that it automatically concentrates near the mean and a considerable number of observations can be saved."
