Although public administrations are making efforts to create sustainable and inclusive open data systems, there is limited capacity to identify suitable datasets, clean, release, and reuse them. Serious games offer a possible solution for data capacity building and have already been used to train civil servants and citizens on the topic of open data. This research presents a review of serious games and discusses their potential for data capacity building. The games selected in the review are classified and described according to their different learning outcomes, formats, and type of media. Most serious games found in this review can be categorized as teaching games and are designed to raise data awareness, which is only a limited aspect of building data capacity. We found a lack of design games, research games, and policy games. Given their success for ideation in other fields, design games offer a particular opportunity to build data capacity by generating new ideas about how to reuse open datasets.","PeriodicalId":54126,"journal":{"name":"Interdisciplinary Description of Complex Systems","volume":"28 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87439272","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}

As migrations continue, cities will need to work harder and more efficiently to keep up with the impact of the growing population. Because of this, smart cities will set standards in major metropolitan areas around the world. Self-driving cars would be the solution for overpopulated cities, where citizens will have fast, comfortable, economical, safe, and secure vehicles at their disposal, which allow them to effortlessly reach their destinations on time with the help of the 5G network. The next mobile revolution is upon us, with autonomous vehicles heralded as a new element of road traffic. Using cameras and sensors to process road and traffic data in real-time, these vehicles also exchange information with each other and traffic infrastructure, relieving the driver of numerous tasks. Therefore, besides improving the safety of road traffic, autonomous vehicles will bring significant changes to the society we know today.","PeriodicalId":54126,"journal":{"name":"Interdisciplinary Description of Complex Systems","volume":"73 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75979426","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}

The aim of the present study is to investigate the energy significance of additional information. During the investigation, the appearance of additional information is represented with an older Internet game. This game provides an opportunity to detect the incorporation and decoding of extra data.

These include monitoring energy consumption, operating a smart waste management system, monitoring, and tracking traffic, having smart parking systems, monitoring public lighting, and even detecting various malfunctions. Such smart city systems use IoT technology for data collection. An essential aspect of urban solutions is to ensure the coverage of large areas, both outdoors and indoors, low energy consumption, as well as modularity and mobility. LPWAN technologies can meet these conditions. LPWAN technologies include LTE-M, NB-IoT, LoRaWAN, and Sigfox. Using LoRaWAN technology can be the right solution for these cases. As with any application, it is crucial to clarify the challenges of the application with LoRaWAN. The present study addresses the categorization of LoRaWAN devices and the challenges of technology in smart city solutions. LoRaWAN products used in smart city solutions can be grouped according to several aspects. This article deals with the creation of classifications that facilitate further testing. Smart city application challenge studies are applied to the specified categories. The challenges of the solutions cover several areas. These include technological aspects, aspects of specifications, and aspects of the nature of the application. Another area represents the information security aspects, which is, however, not addressed by this invention. Based on these aspects, the article describes the challenges of LoRaWAN technology in smart cities.","PeriodicalId":54126,"journal":{"name":"Interdisciplinary Description of Complex Systems","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87305360","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}

Patients living with cardiac implantable electronic devices (CIEDs) are at high-risk to experience emotional distress and severe COVID-19 symptoms. Assessing their mental and physical health condition during the pandemic is crucial. An online questionnaire consisting of 45 multiple-choice questions regarding the patients' emotional and physical status was completed by 210 CIEDs participants. On the eligible 184 responses, a principal axis factoring (PAF) multivariate analysis was performed, which is part of the Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) class, frequently used in healthcare research. The considered variables in the PAF were CIEDs patients' concerns related to: device functioning, having received a shock (if ICD), the possibility to receive a shock (if ICD), access to medical care, reaching physicians, access to medication, getting infected by SARS-CoV-2, the health of caretakers, the health of their loved ones. However, one of the most difficult tasks in PAF is the selection of an appropriate number of factors. We proposed three rules to be considered, the verification of: the Kaiser criterion, the Cattell's Scree test, and the cumulative variance (to explain at least 60-65 %). After the number of factors had been established, we proposed a final verification, the Monte Carlo Parallel Analysis. Two factors were identified, subsequently defined as \"Healthcare -related concerns\" and \"Fear of COVID-19 disease\", which explained 75.56% of the cumulative variance. The factors highlight the need for accurate medical information provision, patient education, and support to improve healthcare during the pandemic.","PeriodicalId":54126,"journal":{"name":"Interdisciplinary Description of Complex Systems","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77341170","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}

Other groups of people think of the smart city as represented by high quality and future visionary high-end instruments and electric cars. However, the smart city is based on an interaction between city systems, public safety, health, education, and citizens’ services. This cooperation makes the city a healthier, safer place for people to live in. Nowadays, public safety is of paramount importance like energy management, smart transport, or building automation.

The present research aims to find a solution to how security cameras should be upgraded by expanded intelligence to greatly facilitate the administration in schools and to have a positive influence on safety issues. As security cameras have been developed for surveillance, the mentioned features should be further improved. The cameras installed in hallways and classrooms are possibly capable of face detection and recognition, as well as for headcount. It is recommended that these solutions be expanded by the possibility of registering attendance. If a camera can recognize a student, an attendance register may be composed, so it would be possible to determine who is attending classes regularly and who is not. The data received in this way could periodically be sent to teachers by the system. The composing of attendance registers is a privilege of access control systems; however, this is fairly inconvenient in educational institutions. Hypothetically, the surveillance camera system represents the most adequate choice for a passive, personal identification, as in this case, an active contribution is not necessary.","PeriodicalId":54126,"journal":{"name":"Interdisciplinary Description of Complex Systems","volume":"32 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.5,"publicationDate":"2022-02-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75036456","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}
