Book excerpt: This report describes the IT infrastructure and health information exchange system (HIES) software developed for the International Consortium for Applied Radiation Research (ICARR) project. The research was conducted under a cooperative agreement funded by the US Department of Energy in collaboration with RTI International, Duke University, the University of North Carolina at Asheville, and the Research Centre for Radiation Medicine in Ukraine. The ICARR research consortium was formed to study how the human body responds to primarily low-level nuclear radiation exposure. A major component of the project was the creation of a cohort of workers hired to secure the deteriorating object shelter that surrounds Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant reactor #4. These consenting workers provided medical data and biological samples to the consortium for research testing. A significant challenge to the project was setting up an information technology system for data capture, data transmission, and information sharing among the international consortium partners. This paper describes how project goals, and the research environment shaped the IT solution that was successfully deployed within nine months of contract award.

Download or read book Research of development tendencies of modern Ukrainian society historical philosophical and educational aspects written by Bogatchuk S., Mazylo I., Pikovska T., Makarov Z., Bielkin I., Mangora V., Mangora T. and published by International Science Group. This book was released on 2022-06-09 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The collective monograph is devoted to the study of development trends of modern Ukrainian society. The study uses an interdisciplinary approach that allows you to analyze various aspects of the development of social processes in Ukraine and obtain socially significant scientific results. Svitlana Bogatchuk analyzes the processes of formation of applied research centers and attempts to form an educational system to improve the functioning of Ukrainian railways in the late nineteenth century. The study notes that the development of advanced industrial technologies at the time was impossible without adequate technical, scientific and human resources. Igor Mazylo continues to study the history of railway transport. The researcher emphasizes that railway transport during the Soviet-German war played an exclusive role in transporting the needs of the front and the reconstruction process in the economy. The section prepared by Tatiana Pikovskaya is devoted to the solution of the national question in the programs of political parties of national minorities. The history of the First Czechoslovak Republic is part of the political history of Ukraine, because as a result of international treaties concluded after the First World War, Transcarpathian Russia became part of Czechoslovakia under the name "Subcarpathian Russ". This was the impetus for the formation of a democratic multiparty system in the region. The section highlights the peculiarities of Transcarpathian political parties of this period. Among them are multipartyism, the presence of a large number of Hungarian, German, and Jewish parties in addition to the Ukrainian one. In his section, Zorislav Makarov studies the historical-philosophical and methodological preconditions of the current sociological, post-positivist and postmodern critique of scientific rationality and deterministic ideas at the heart of its ontology. The author clarifies the reasons and prospects of significant philosophical and methodological reflection of communicative aspects of scientific rationality on the material of advanced science development of quantum and "nonlinear" samples of ontology and the corresponding improvement of scientific description. In the study of Igor Bielkin research reveals the methodological principles of effective use of the business game algorithm as a leading method of active training of future specialists in the field of management and business in modern institutions of higher education. Emphasis is placed on the modernization of the content of the educational process taking into account the current needs of professional training of modern managers using gaming technologies. Attention is paid to the implementation of communication comfort of students in vocational training in higher education institutions in the game environment, as well as the use of business games as a method of interactive learning of students in the real production process. Volodymir Mangora researches the peculiarities of information and legal support of legal education in modern Ukraine. The analysis of the current legislation regulating information and legal support of legal education is carried out. The main problems of information and legal support of legal education in terms of distance learning are identified. Proposals have been developed to improve the training of future lawyers. Tamila Mangora on the basis of studying the life of A. Yakovliv considered his formation as a lawyer and historian of law, analyzed the process of transformation of his political and legal views. As a result of studying the works of A. Yakovliv, his views on the sources of Ukrainian law, Ukrainian-Moscow treaties, ideas about the formation of the Ukrainian nation and the formation of the state are highlighted. The content of the collective monograph corresponds to the direction of research work of the Department of History of Ukraine and Philosophy of Vinnytsia National Agrarian University "Study of trends in socio-economic development and 5 consolidation of Ukrainian society in modern history of Ukraine." In writing the monograph were used: historical and genetic method, statistical analysis, sociological and pedagogical research.

Download or read book The Politics of Invisibility written by Olga Kuchinskaya and published by MIT Press. This book was released on 2023-08-15 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lessons from the massive Chernobyl nuclear accident about how we deal with modern hazards that are largely imperceptible. Before Fukushima, the most notorious large-scale nuclear accident the world had seen was Chernobyl in 1986. The fallout from Chernobyl covered vast areas in the Northern Hemisphere, especially in Europe. Belarus, at the time a Soviet republic, suffered heavily: nearly a quarter of its territory was covered with long-lasting radionuclides. Yet the damage from the massive fallout was largely imperceptible; contaminated communities looked exactly like noncontaminated ones. It could be known only through constructed representations of it. In The Politics of Invisibility, Olga Kuchinskaya explores how we know what we know about Chernobyl, describing how the consequences of a nuclear accident were made invisible. Her analysis sheds valuable light on how we deal with other modern hazards—toxins or global warming—that are largely imperceptible to the human senses. Kuchinskaya describes the production of invisibility of Chernobyl's consequences in Belarus—practices that limit public attention to radiation and make its health effects impossible to observe. Just as mitigating radiological contamination requires infrastructural solutions, she argues, the production and propagation of invisibility also involves infrastructural efforts, from redefining the scope and nature of the accident's consequences to reshaping research and protection practices. Kuchinskaya finds vast fluctuations in recognition, tracing varyingly successful efforts to conceal or reveal Chernobyl's consequences at different levels—among affected populations, scientists, government, media, and international organizations. The production of invisibility, she argues, is a function of power relations.

Download or read book Evolving Global Information Infrastructure and Information Transfer written by Robert J. Grover Professor Emeritus and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2015-03-19 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book explains the rapidly changing, complex flow of information in the context of 21st-century culture, policy, technology, and economics—an essential resource for librarians and information specialists in all types of settings. The role of information professionals today is to interact creatively with clientele: to help them navigate the information infrastructure. Shattering the concept of the library as a place, Evolving Global Information Infrastructure and Information Transfer describes "the library" as transformed to a dynamic virtual presence in the information infrastructure, where people are the most important resources in a digital library or information center—not the collections. Instead of focusing on specific technologies, which are always changing, this book examines the "big picture" of how information is created, recorded, mass produced, distributed, and utilized in society. This unique approach enables readers to better understand how they fit into this changing world, to envision their place in the digital age, and to assume a leadership role that ensures the success of their clients as well as themselves. This standout work is ideally suited for all types of librarians, educators, information workers, members of the research community, and policymakers in public and private sector organizations.
