Complete Framework

In this paper, we present a complete framework, both technical and conceptual, aimed at developing and analysing Networked Music Systems. After a short description of our technical framework called soundworks, a JavaScript library especially designed for collective music interaction using web browser of mobile phones, we introduce a new conceptual framework, we named interaction topologies, that aims at providing a generic tool for the description of interaction in such systems. Our proposition differs from the theoretical approaches generally proposed in the literature by decoupling the description of interaction topologies from the low level technical implementation of the network. We then report on a set of scenarios and prototypes, illustrating and assessing our framework, which were successfully deployed in several public installations and performances. We particularly show that our concept of interaction topologies succeeds at describing and analysing global aspects of interaction from multiple point of views (e.g., social, human-computer) by allowing for composing simple abstract figures. We finally introduce a discussion on agencies and perception of users engaged in such systems that could later complete our framework to conceive and analyse Networked Music Systems.

Background. Organizational behavior plays a significant role in the effectiveness of enterprises specializing in nanotechnology. Its negative side – counterproductive work behavior (CWB) – has not been analyzed sufficiently in this industry. We evaluated different theoretical approaches to this problem. Objective. To estimate the predominant forms of counterproductive work behavior in relation to dimensions such as the intensity of the nanotechnology industry, seniority in the organization, and the age and gender of the subjects. Design. We used a descriptive exploratory methodology that analyzes the preponderance of counterproductive work behavior in profile companies throughout the Russian Federation. CWB was assessed through a self-report questionnaire and in-depth interview with each employee. The results were analyzed by correlation-regression analysis in SPSS. Results. We found significant correlations between the variables “intensity of the nanotechnology industry within the organization”, “seniority of employees within the organization”, “age of employees”, and the total score of CWB. Regarding the CWB dimensions, the highest average of the scores was obtained for “low level of conscientiousness” (mean = 21.75; SD = 2.9), followed closely by “low level of personal development” (mean = 20.53; SD = 3.09). Among the CWB dimensions, it seems that the conscientiousness of the employees plays a key role in the continuation of their professional activity and consequently in the increase of seniority in the organization. Conclusion. A professional difficulty can be perceived as a challenge by an employee with good physical and/or psychological resilience. Russian nanotechnology companies should evaluate their approach to dealing with employees and mitigate situations that might be unnecessarily stressful. From the data obtained through the semi-structured interview, we found that what happens in a work group is essential in the emergence of CWB. Organizations need clear policies that empower employees to deal with certain work tasks and with employees who engage in specific CWB.

In today’s world the term efficiency gained a status of an imperative at all levels of economic activity (micro, mezo, macro) as well as in all sectors of the economy (private, public, non-profit). The prevalence of “efficiency” in scientific discussions discloses existence of a number of approaches to the understanding of this concept as well as existence of conceptual differences regarding the essence of efficiency, resulting from different ideological foundations of relevant economic theories. This study distinguishes between two analytical approaches: 1) static efficiency – conceptually inscribed in the paradigm of neoclassical economics, 2) dynamic efficiency – developed on the grounds of heterodox evolutionary economics. Within these two theoretical approaches various types of efficiency have been identified and characterized. This resulted in a typology that established a conceptual framework for clarifying different meanings of the term “efficiency”.

Systematic Framework

This chapter aims at developing a framework and model for identifying and organizing usability factors of mobile phones. Although some studies have been made on evaluating the factors, there is no systematic framework for identifying and categorizing them. This chapter proposes a conceptual framework which has multiple views to explain different aspects of the interaction between users and mobile phones, and which describes the world of usability factors based on these views. The multiple views include user view, product view, interaction view, dynamic view, and execution view. Furthermore, based on the conceptual framework, a multi-level hierarchical model which classified usability factors in terms of goal-means relationships was developed. Next, two case studies are described, where the usefulness of the framework and model could be confirmed. Lastly, a set of checklists which make the framework and model more practical were developed.

The article systematizes the existing theoretical approaches to revealing the essence of the definition "a region’s economic security strategy". The strategy of economic security should be a priority in ensuring the goals of inclusive development of regions, their competitiveness and stability. The order of development of this strategy includes: 1) forming the strategic goals of economic security of the region taking into account the management hierarchy; 2) strategic analysis of the external and internal security environment of the region; 3) identifying the strategy options; 4) determining the strategic alternatives and priorities of economic security of the region; 5) implementing the strategy; 6) monitoring the determinants of the economic security management process; 7) control; 8) adjustment of appropriate measures for economic security in the region. A number of new strategies are proposed: 1) of equalization and elimination of risks, threats, and dangers, 2) of growth and activation of growth poles; 3) of active growth; 4) of advanced safety-oriented development; 5) innovation-investment and adaptive strategies. Strategies for equalization and elimination of risks, threats, and dangers for areas with signs of depression and a critically low level of security are aimed at overcoming imbalances in the socio-economic system of the region and restoring positive economic growth parameters. Strategies for growth and activation of growth poles are focused on identifying profitable economic activities in the region, increasing innovation and investment, and overcoming the existing low level of economic security. Strategies of active growth provide for positive dynamics of development of the economic subsystem in the region and indicators of its security and increase of internal potential for an economic breakthrough. Strategies of advanced security-oriented development are typical for leading regions with a high level of development of the economic subsystem in the region and its security with a focus on the long-term increase of regional economic activity and security indicators. Innovation-investment and adaptive strategies are typical for the region with the highest level of economic security based on the adequacy of financial security and concentration of innovation and investment potential in the region.

Building or home security systems at this time are needed because there are still many security systems that can trigger crime, one of which is the use of padlock or conventional door locks and security that has not worked automatically. A security system is needed which has a high level of security and is automatic so that it does not bother users. Security systems are often a problem, namely the low level of security, how to use is not easy, and not automatic. The way to overcome this problem is to create a security system that has tight security, easy to use, works continuously automatically and can be connected to the user's mobile phone. Based on research that has been made this security system shows one of the security systems that have a high level of security because it is equipped with an infrared sensor that serves to detect the presence of humans, the camera takes pictures if the infrared sensor detects humans, a fingerprint sensor that functions as access to open the door and all The sensor works automatically and continuously and can be connected to mobile phones through the internet, this security system works well and can be relied upon.

Children With Intellectual Disability

Understanding the ontogenetic features of socialisation of children with intellectual disability is of great social significance. The purpose of the scientific article is to identify the age characteristics of socialisation of children with intellectual disability in special psychological and pedagogical research. In the course of the study, the following methods were used: analysis of general and special psychological and pedagogical literature; systematisation and generalisation of theoretical approaches to solving the problem of children with intellectual disabilities’ social development; definition of key concepts’ content; theoretical modelling to create a hypothetical model of socialisation of the child with intellectual disability at different ages. It was found that the socialisation of a personality with intellectual disability in preschool age was manifested in disorders of self-perception, decreased emotional sensitivity, ability to empathise, lack of understanding and adequate assessment of life situations, social skills’ disorders. Due to the existing behavioural disorders, younger students have a feeling of loneliness, lower social competence. The semantic sphere of adolescents with intellectual disability is manifested in the delayed development of semantic life orientations, low level of life satisfaction, unformed higher emotions, dominance of primitive interests, violations of self-control, dominance of low level of adaptation to the social environment. Senior students with intellectual disability have a distortion of self-awareness, which is manifested in undifferentiated and uncritical perceptions of adolescents about themselves, inadequate self-esteem. The established age features of children with intellectual disabilities’ social formation make it possible to work out a system of corrective influence on their social development taking into account the “structure of the disorder” based on the “bottom-up” correction principle
