The improvement of Service Apps has a strong driving effect on the overall improvement of the medical industry. Besides, it is more conducive to the prevention and control of the COVID-19 outbreak for patients with chronic and mild diseases to use the online inquiry. Therefore, in this paper, the status quo of comprehensive service design for large-scale hospitals in Zhengzhou, China is analyzed and summarized, and the necessary requirements for establishing a unified UI (User Interface) design centered on users (patients) are studied, in order to enhance and improve the design content of inappropriate placement and use of UI.Using the existing model of integrated services, an evaluation project is proposed for users. A survey study is made on investigating the needs for UI design in large general hospitals from a service perspective based on relevant theories, which aims to achieve enhancement of the hospital system, reach work productivity and increase brand-name value of hospital services. It involves the lack of unity of information systems and user confusion due to the different forms. To solve this problem, user-centric UI design includes a coherent interface, an experiential design component, and a visual component. Therefore, in this study, the network service App and UI design needs of large hospitals in Zhengzhou City are investigated and summarized.Based on the situational design method, the user centered design fully considers the user needs in different situations and gives feedback, so as to improve the user experience. The integrated design model of service design created in this study will help large general hospitals in Zhengzhou to establish organic, efficient and high-quality health care services, and realize a general hospital system to improve service experience and service satisfaction for all users.

The added value of mobile services is decided by the context in which they are used. In this paper, the authors study how the context-of-use influences the intention to adopt mobile messaging, entertainment and social media services. While doing so, the authors compare the intended use between males and females. The results are based on a large scale survey study among Finnish consumers. According to the findings, the context-of-use matters for mobile entertainment and messaging services, but not for social media services. Fit with social context is only important for social media services, whilst work-related context matters only for messaging services. In general, context-of-use is more decisive for men than women. However, while ubiquitous context-of-use is much more important for males, social and work context are relevant only for females. The results have important implications for service providers on how to develop and implement specific context-aware mobile services.

Data Annotation

Big data bioinformatics aims at drawing biological conclusions from huge and complex biological datasets. Added value from the analysis of big data, however, is only possible if the data is accompanied by accurate metadata annotation. Particularly in high-throughput experiments intelligent approaches are needed to keep track of the experimental design, including the conditions that are studied as well as information that might be interesting for failure analysis or further experiments in the future. In addition to the management of this information, means for an integrated design and interfaces for structured data annotation are urgently needed by researchers. Here, we propose a factor-based experimental design approach that enables scientists to easily create large-scale experiments with the help of a web-based system. We present a novel implementation of a web-based interface allowing the collection of arbitrary metadata. To exchange and edit information we provide a spreadsheet-based, humanly readable format. Subsequently, sample sheets with identifiers and metainformation for data generation facilities can be created. Data files created after measurement of the samples can be uploaded to a datastore, where they are automatically linked to the previously created experimental design model.

Use Of Social Media

Fear-of-missing-out (FOMO) refers to feelings of anxiety that arise from the realization that you may be missing out on rewarding experiences that others are having. FOMO can be identified as an intra-personal trait that drives people to stay up to date of what other people are doing, among others on social media platforms. Drawing from the findings of a large-scale survey study among 2663 Flemish teenagers, this study explores the relationships between FOMO, social media use, problematic social media use (PSMU) and phubbing behavior. In line with our expectations, FOMO was a positive predictor of both how frequently teenagers use several social media platforms and of how many platforms they actively use. FOMO was a stronger predictor of the use of social media platforms that are more private (e.g., Facebook, Snapchat) than platforms that are more public in nature (e.g., Twitter, Youtube). FOMO predicted phubbing behavior both directly and indirectly via its relationship with PSMU. These findings support extant research that points towards FOMO as a factor explaining teenagers’ social media use.

Profiled Edge Laminae (PEL) tooling is a thick-layer Rapid Tooling (RT) method that was developed a decade ago. Even with demonstrable advantages for large-scale tool applications over conventional CNC-machining of a solid billet and other commercially available RT methods, PEL tooling has not seen widespread use by industry because prior research related to laminated tooling has (1) focused on small-scale tools and perpendicular laser-cutting that required extensive surface finishing, and (2) there is no integrated and practical design and fabrication approach to tooling development. This paper describes a more streamlined and integrated approach to PEL tooling development, called the PEL Process, that builds upon prior work in this area. Critical components of the process that are described in detail include how to obtain lamina slicing information directly from a CAD model of the intended tool surface, how to measure dimensional errors between the PEL and CAD tool surfaces, and improved Abrasive Waterjet cutting trajectory and laminae slicing algorithms. The PEL Process is then demonstrated for the design and fabrication of aluminum PEL tooling used for hydroforming aircraft sheet metal components.

This article presents a framework to integrate and optimize the design of large-scale wind turbines. Annual energy production, load analysis, the structural design of components and the wind farm operation model are coupled to perform a system-level nonlinear optimization. As well as the commonly used design objective levelized cost of energy (LCoE), key metrics of engineering economics such as net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR) and the discounted payback time (DPT) are calculated and used as design objectives, respectively. The results show that IRR and DPT have the same effect as LCoE since they all lead to minimization of the ratio of the capital expenditure to the energy production. Meanwhile, the optimization for NPV tends to maximize the margin between incomes and costs. These two types of economic metrics provide the minimal blade length and maximal blade length of an optimal blade for a target wind turbine at a given wind farm. The turbine properties with respect to the blade length and tower height are also examined. The blade obtained with economic optimization objectives has a much larger relative thickness and smaller chord distributions than that obtained for high aerodynamic performance design. Furthermore, the use of cost control objectives in optimization is crucial in improving the economic efficiency of wind turbines and sacrificing some aerodynamic performance can bring significant reductions in design loads and turbine costs.

Design has become an important driver of economic innovation and better living globally. This paper looks at the evolution of design within the innovation space and how it is applied in tropical Singapore, a global financial center, and Townsville, a regional city in Australia’s tropical northeast. The general question of whether regional Australian cities can adopt and adapt large scale innovative practices is examined in the context of driving change in the Circular Economy. The role of design has evolved from the popular understanding of creating products, driving consumption and being a decorative discipline; to driving social, public and economic change. Cities like Singapore have been on the policy forefront to push design-led innovation to facilitate start-ups, spark economic development, re-imagine its future, and on a human scale, harmonize with its tropical setting. Design Thinking and Service Design Thinking as strategies for innovation play a crucial part in driving a paradigm shift in economic thinking away from unsustainable levels of consumerism and towards a Circular Economy. The future challenge for designers working toward a Circular Economy will require new ways of approaching services, processes and products that are good for business and sustainable development. Through higher education, Townsville design students took innovative steps to improve the quality of life for the elderly on a small scale, which illustrates a capacity for design-led innovation on a regional level that reflects large scale Service Design in Singapore.

Rescue Robots

With rapid developments in robotics and artificial intelligence, the prospect of automating rescue operations and protecting trained professionals from life-threatening risk is becoming increasingly viable. What moral standards do people expect rescue robots to enforce? Previous research has emphasized the notion that robots are expected to conform to specifically utilitarian standards. In a series of seven experiments (total N = 3752) and one public survey (N = ~19 000), we compared people’s evaluations of human and robotic rescue agents in the context of boating accidents, while manipulating the victims’ negligence. Relative to human lifeguards, robots of various kinds are expected to save innocent lives, even when doing so entails sacrificing a larger number of negligent individuals (Studies 1-2b). This finding was replicated in a large-scale web survey (Study 3) and was found to reverse when matching the victims in their degree of negligence (Study 5). In sum, robots are not merely expected to be more utilitarian, but rather are held to higher moral standards altogether.
