Abstract: Abstract On September 17, 2024, at 15:30 local time, thousands of pagers used by members of a specific party group detonated across Lebanon. As a result of the explosions, 2800 were wounded and 12 lost their lives. Almost two-thirds of the injuries were in the face, eyes, or hands. The Lebanese American University Medical Center received 38 injured and admitted 36 patients, 13 of them to the Intensive care unit. A total of 33 patients needed surgeries. All medical and nursing staff were deployed. The health care workers faced major challenges that night: the severity of the injuries and the unprecedented types of injuries with the same pattern, and the urgent need for ophthalmology and orthopedics within the hospital and across the country. Learning from the Pager Explosion, each hospital should perform assessments of their disaster response plan, develop trainings, and conduct regular exercises in preparation for future disasters.

Abstract: The European Union's Horizon 2020 Prediction of Adverse effects of Geomagnetic storms and Energetic Radiation (PAGER) project was successfully concluded in 2023. This project provides real-time space weather forecast initiated from the solar observations as well as predictions of radiation in space and its effects on satellite infrastructure. Real-time predictions of particle radiation and cold plasma density allow for evaluation of surface charging and deep dielectric charging. The project provides a 1-2-day probabilistic and data assimilative forecast of ring current and radiation belt environments, which allows satellite operators to respond to predictions that present a significant threat. As a backbone of the project, we use the state-of-the-art codes that currently exist and adapt existing codes to perform ensemble simulations and uncertainty quantifications. Within PAGER, a number of innovative tools was obtained, including data assimilation and uncertainty quantification, new models of near-Earth electromagnetic wave environment, ensemble predictions of solar wind parameters at L1, and data-driven forecast of the geomangetic Kp index and plasma density. In this presentation, we show the overview of the outcomes and the products obtained within the project. The developed codes may be used in the future for realistic modelling of extreme space weather events.

Abstract: Examina a história, os impulsionadores e as perspectivas das negociações de financiamento para o desenvolvimento (FfD) nas Nações Unidas (ONU), com foco no engajamento do Brasil. Desde a adoção da Agenda 2030 para o Desenvolvimento Sustentável e da Agenda de Ação de Addis Abeba em 2015, as discussões de FfD enfrentam desafios em meio a uma mudança de paradigma na cooperação internacional. Apesar do estabelecimento de mecanismos como o Fórum do ECOSOC sobre Acompanhamento do Financiamento para o Desenvolvimento e o Grupo de Trabalho Interinstitucional sobre FfD, as discussões baseadas em consenso têm lutado para cumprir compromissos, especialmente em relação à assistência oficial para o desenvolvimento (ODA) e responsabilidades diferenciadas entre países desenvolvidos e em desenvolvimento. Tendências recentes, incluindo a crise da ODA e debates sobre cooperação tributária, destacam divisões na cooperação internacional. O Brasil, como membro do G77 + China e com laços com a OCDE, desempenha um papel crucial na mediação de discussões e na promoção das aspirações dos países em desenvolvimento. Apesar de contextos polarizados, a convergência está surgindo em áreas como o envolvimento do setor privado e as práticas de cooperação para o desenvolvimento. O papel do setor privado no FfD evoluiu significativamente, com o Brasil facilitando a primeira resolução da Assembleia Geral da ONU sobre a promoção de investimentos para o desenvolvimento sustentável em 2019.

Abstract: This study began with a social phenomenon in which digital technology has developed and its dependence on digital technology has increased, resulting in an Digital divide. Accordingly, by introducing the concept of digilog as a way to solve the problem of difficulties in using transportation services for the digitally disadvantaged, we intend to combine the intuitive use of analog with the digitized taxi call service. It was intended to design facilities to suit various places and situations such as existing taxi platforms, new taxi platforms, narrow spaces, and complex transfer spaces, and to satisfy the requirements by theoretical considerations and collecting user opinions. It is expected that the development of public facilities such as digital taxi pagers will play a role as a cornerstone to improve access to transportation services for the digitally disadvantaged and promote social integration.

Abstract: Pager Kaos is a conventional enterprise that provides services in the manufacture of clothes and templates. The business process in the business at Pager Kaos is still not optimal, mainly the activity carried out on the ordering process, which still takes quite a long Time and results in repeated activity. Problems arise because my resources of people, facilities, and technology that have not been optimally utilized. So there's a need for improvement, which is to make improvements to the business process. Improvement of business processes on the Chaos Pager Convention is done using Business Process Improvements (BPI). Focus methods to help companies improve business processes to be more effective and efficient. The main business processes observed are the ordering process, production process, packaging and delivery process, and financial recording. From these processes, each activity is analyzed so that it can be grouped according to RVA, BVA, and NVA, and cycle Time efficiency calculations and streamlining are performed to obtain business process improvements. To support the improvement of business processes, a Google form and spreadsheet-based application were designed to help in the process of recording incoming orders and recording order data, as well as in storing photos and videos of customer order documentation to be more organized. The result of the improvement affects the number of previous activities, which were reduced to 30. The cycle Time has been reduced from the previous 178,66 minutes to 149,49 minutes. The previous business process efficiency of 72,61% increased to 80,47%.

Abstract: The additive model of inheritance assumes that heterozygotes (Aa) are exactly intermediate in respect to homozygotes (AA and aa). While this model is commonly used in single-locus genetic association studies, significant deviations from additivity are well-documented and contribute to phenotypic variance across many traits and systems. This assumption can introduce type I and type II errors by overestimating or underestimating the effects of variants that deviate from additivity. Alternative genotype encoding strategies have been explored to account for different inheritance patterns, but they often incur significant computational or methodological costs. To address these challenges, we introduce PAGER (Phenotype Adjusted Genotype Encoding and Ranking), an efficient pre-processing method that encodes each genetic variant based on normalized mean phenotypic differences between diallelic genotype classes (AA, Aa, and aa). This approach more accurately reflects each variant's true inheritance model, improving model precision while minimizing the costs associated with alternative encoding strategies. Through extensive benchmarking on SNPs simulated with both binary and continuous phenotypes, we demonstrate that PAGER accurately represents various inheritance patterns (including additive, dominant, recessive, and heterosis), achieves levels of statistical power that meet or exceed other encoding strategies, and attains computation speeds up to 55 times faster than a similar method, EDGE. We also apply PAGER to publicly available real-world data and identify a novel, relevant putative QTL associated with body mass index in rats (Rattus norvegicus) that is not detected with the additive model. Overall, we show that PAGER is an efficient genotype encoding approach that can uncover sources of missing heritability and reveal novel insights in the study of complex traits while incurring minimal costs.

A secondary objective was to provide a mapping of the pager communications coverage from selected transmission sites at Fort Irwin.

Abstract: Effective communication is essential in the healthcare industry, as it can significantly improve workflow and positively impact patient care and healthcare professionals' (HCPs) working conditions. With the introduction of digital technologies, healthcare systems have been able to upgrade communication channels and streamline communication processes. Among these technologies, the pager system has been widely embraced by hospitals worldwide as a means to improve communication among HCPs. With progress in science and technology, new communication platforms have been developed and are now widely used in many sectors. Poor communication in hospitals affects four aspects of hospital work: efficiency of resource utilisation, effectiveness of core operations, quality of HCP’s work life and quality of service provided in the hospital. This project examines these issues in the UK National Health Service by comparing the traditional pager system with widely available multi-functional mobile phone communications apps such as WhatsApp and bespoke apps such as Alertive and Medic Bleep. A survey of HCPs and some in-depth interviews were conducted to examine the lived experience of working with pagers and apps. The results show that HCPs have reported that using modern, multi-functional digital communication apps can significantly enhance workflow efficiency within the hospital. This, in turn, can positively impact various aspects of hospital operations, such as resource utilisation, patient care, and staff work-life balance. The project recommends that healthcare managers consider investing in communication apps that offer multiple functionalities to replace traditional pagers. However, it is essential to acknowledge that implementing new technology may present challenges in terms of change management.

Abstract: Discute a importância da análise ex-ante na formulação de políticas públicas, destacando a necessidade de combinar teoria, metodologia e evidências para garantir a eficácia das intervenções governamentais. Argumenta-se que, embora teoricamente reconhecida, a implementação de políticas baseadas em evidências enfrenta desafios, incluindo sobrecarga organizacional, dificuldades na coleta e processamento de dados, e falta de capacitação adequada das equipes de monitoramento e avaliação. Propõe-se que a análise ex-ante pode contribuir para a criação de oportunidades de aprendizado coletivo e para o desenvolvimento de políticas e programas mais eficazes, apoiados por abordagens teóricas e metodológicas especializadas. Para isso, o Centro Internacional de Políticas para o Desenvolvimento Inclusivo (IPCid) do Instituto de Pesquisa Econômica Aplicada (Ipea) do Governo do Brasil oferecerá cursos e materiais de capacitação, visando preparar servidores públicos e organizações da sociedade civil para conceber políticas de alto valor público e programas com capacidade de monitoramento e avaliação adequados.
