{"title":"Computer simulation for reengineering the linens delivery process with RFID in a hospital","authors":"S. Shim, Aran Kumar, J. Jiao","doi":"10.1109/I-SOCIETY.2016.7854193","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/I-SOCIETY.2016.7854193","url":null,"abstract":"A hospital in Southeast Asia considers deploying a radio-frequency identification (RFID) system to improve the linens delivery and tracking process. This study uses computer simulation in modeling and comparing the process both with and without the RFID system and also assesses the impact of the RFID system on the process in terms of time taken and visibility of linens in the process. The simulation results show that the new process with the RFID system takes about 5.04 minutes longer for soiled linens and about 31.48 minutes longer for clean linens than the current process without the RFID system does. The increased times are mainly due to the activities added in the process to implement the RFID system. The results also demonstrate that the RFID system significantly improves the visibility of linens in the process. The results of this study could prove helpful to those who consider deploying an RFID system for the linens delivery and tracking process in hospitals or other similar processes.","PeriodicalId":317605,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Information Society (i-Society)","volume":"72 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115068694","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Secure software development through non-functional requirements modeling","authors":"Aspen Olmsted","doi":"10.1109/I-SOCIETY.2016.7854164","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/I-SOCIETY.2016.7854164","url":null,"abstract":"In the development of a new software solution, users and developers spend the majority of their effort on modeling the functional requirements. The Non-Functional Requirements (NFR) are treated as a second class requirement, ignored until the end of the development cycle. They are often hidden, overshadowed and therefore, frequently neglected or forgotten. They are neglected because NFRs are often difficult to model, develop and test. NFRs become even more important in secure software design. Secure software design requires modeling of the confidentiality and integrity of data passed through the software system, along with the availability requirements of the software system. More research is needed on both the modeling of these requirements along with the mapping of the NFR models into executable software code. To develop robust software that is more resilient to cyber-security attacks requires NFR modeling to become an integral part of the software development process. In this paper, we focus on the modeling of NFRs and the transformations from UML models into the source code.","PeriodicalId":317605,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Information Society (i-Society)","volume":"82 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131759664","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Point of sale systems in today's brick-and-mortar storefronts fall woefully short of these standards at every step of the work flow. They commonly use outdated desktop computers and store card data locally, oftentimes in plaintext. Backups of these systems, if kept at all, are often stored on unsecured, removable media. If we can move some of the payment infrastructure away from the merchant to a central web service, then we can reduce the responsibility of the merchant and provide a more secure environment for the consumer.","PeriodicalId":317605,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Information Society (i-Society)","volume":"166 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121986460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study resides in the application domain of business market validation as a motivating example. The amount of data which can be output for market validation can be drastically increased through the process of automation. Through the use of automatic survey completion, we seek to decrease the amount of time required for each survey and therefore increase the efficiency of market data collection. Each survey completed with automation increases the efficiency and results in more market data collection. We outline a chrome application which opens a survey website and answers designated questions. We next document the improvements provided by the automation. Then we overview the results and discuss the available improvements to survey automation process.","PeriodicalId":317605,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Information Society (i-Society)","volume":"252 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123284356","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this paper, we will report on our investigation of malicious threats on social networks. We will propose a simple yet effective methodology for detecting fraudulent profiles on Facebook, a social networking service.","PeriodicalId":317605,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Information Society (i-Society)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130349991","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Inclusive education practices for a culturally responsive teacher education program","authors":"P. Louderback","doi":"10.1109/I-SOCIETY.2016.7854202","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1109/I-SOCIETY.2016.7854202","url":null,"abstract":"The purpose of this article is to provide a reflective discussion, using a case study as a teaching and learning strategy to improve academic learner performance. Guided by the social constructivism paradigm and using critical race theory (CRT) as a theoretical framework that places race at the center of educational research and discourse, we provide conditions for the successful implementation of the case study as a teaching and learning strategy for culturally responsive, inclusive education that may improve academic learner performance for indigenous students. After receiving an Institute for Museum and Library Services (IMLS) Laura Bush 21st Century Librarian Program grant, one institution provided distributed, community-based instruction to rural areas and fostered a community of practice to support pre-service school library teachers. This article presents approaches and assessments based on the program that incorporated a culturally responsive pedagogy in its specialized curriculum and created information literacy resources to improve student success in racially diverse and economically disadvantaged northeast Oklahoma schools and communities. The article further reviews factors that influenced learning and teaching in this program. Significant contributions include the creation of a unique program that provides a framework for practicing professionals in K-12. Curriculum, resources, and information literacy tools are made available to help sustain educational efforts for those who serve in similar communities. The planning, design, development and distribution of digital format information literacy modules address education-based needs to enhance information literacy skills, to incorporate “faces of diversity” that help targeted viewers personally relate more positively to the learning experience, and to deliver current “standards based” training resources. Lesson plans and learning resources created during and after the program can continue to provide opportunities for cross-cultural dialogue between Indigenous and Non-Indigenous educators in shared study, mentoring, and faculty/teacher training.","PeriodicalId":317605,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Information Society (i-Society)","volume":"1 8","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"113954681","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

While most of the Universities in Europe and North America has harnessed the capabilities of cloud services to provide large scale flexibly electronic educational services. In Saudi Arabia, most of the Universities are start-ups with limited IT Staff and ICT infrastructure. Therefore, migrating their ICT services to cloud computing could deliver substantial benefits in the form of rich education content, increased efficiency, and agility that can be used to transform higher education in Saudi universities. However, to successfully migrate to the cloud in the Saudi universities context, it is essential to identify the enabler factors that contribute toward a successful migration to the cloud environment in the higher education settings. Therefore, this research paper proposes a framework to investigate technological and organizational success factors that enable the migration process of the Saudi Universities' ICT to the cloud environment.","PeriodicalId":317605,"journal":{"name":"2016 International Conference on Information Society (i-Society)","volume":"114 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-09-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116149967","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
