The article presents the main directions of the qualitative and quantitative assessment of sustainability in the field of infocommunications, shows the differences in approaches to the definition of sustainability. A method is proposed that differs from the known well-grounded application of the provisions of the theory of random impulse flows. The generalized impulse flow describes the robustness of data transmission in the information direction. The estimation method allows one to take into account both the states of the elements of a composite channel, represented by impulse flows of failures and restorations, and transient processes and sub-processes of information exchange (transmission over a communication line, switching, storage in memory, destructive influences, etc.), represented by separate impulse streams. The variability of the composition of the impulse streams makes it possible to increase the accuracy and reliability of the assessment.

BACKGROUND Through several years of the healthcare information exchange based on the HIE project, some problems were found in the CDA documents generated. OBJECTIVE To fix some problems, we developed the K-CDA Implementation Guide (K means S. Korea) that conforms to the HL7 CDA, and suits the domestic conditions regarding the healthcare information. METHODS We achieved by analyzing HIE guideline and the U.S. C-CDA, and comparing each item. The items that required further discussion were reviewed by the expert committee. Based on the reviews, the previously developed templates were revised. RESULTS A total of 35 CDA templates were developed: five document-level templates, fourteen section-level templates, and sixteen entry-level templates. The 28 value sets used in the templates have been improved and the OIDs for HIE have been redefined CONCLUSIONS The K-CDA IG allows management in the form of a template library based on the definition of the General K-Header and the structured templates. This enables the K-CDA IG to respond to the expansion of national HIE templates with flexibility. For the K-CDA IG, the CDA template in current use was incorporated to the greatest extent possible, to minimize the scope of modifications. It enables the national HIE and the HIE with countries abroad.

Social Entrepreneurship (SE) describes a new entrepreneurial form combining the generation of financial and social value. In recent years, research interest in SE increased in various disciplines with a particular focus on the characteristics of social enterprises. Whereas a clear-cut definition of SE is yet to be found, there is evidence that culture and economy affect and shape features of SE activity. In addition, sector-dependent differences are supposed. Building on Institutional Theory and employing a mixed qualitative and quantitative approach, this study sheds light on the existence of international and inter-sector differences by examining 161 UK and Indian social enterprises. A content analysis and analyses of variance were employed and yielded similarities as well as several significant differences on an international and inter-sector level, e.g., regarding innovativeness and the generation of revenue. The current study contributes to a more nuanced picture of the SE landscape by comparing social enterprise characteristics in a developed and a developing country on the one hand and different sectors on the other hand. Furthermore, I highlight the benefits of jointly applying qualitative and quantitative methodologies. Future research should pay more attention to the innate heterogeneity among social enterprises and further consolidate and extend these findings.

Evaluation method of reliability parameter estimation needs to be improved effectively with the advance of science and technology. This paper develops a new method of parameter estimation, which is named E-Bayesian estimation method. In the case one hyper-parameter, the definition of E-Bayesian estimation of the failure probability is provided, moreover, the formulas of E-Bayesian estimation and hierarchical Bayesian estimation, and the property of E-Bayesian estimation of the failure probability are also provided. Finally, calculation on practical problems shows that the provided method is feasible and easy to perform.

Having achieved an optimized customer portfolio has been of significant importance for companies. The literature provides several portfolio models and vast majority of them are in matrix form where several descriptors are used as dimensions of the matrix. These dimensions are characterized in ambiguity and require specific methods to tackle with it. The aim of this paper is to utilize fuzzy clustering in customer portfolio analysis to reduce this uncertainty and to make a comparison with a traditional customer portfolio model. A dataset of 130 customers of an automotive supplier in Turkey is used to perform the analyses and the results are compared with a conventional customer portfolio matrix. By making use of substantiality and balance of portfolio parameters, a qualitative and quantitative assessment of categorization generated by both approaches are evaluated. The use of fuzzy clustering gives more substantial clusters and a more balanced customer portfolio compared to the traditional matrix form of portfolio. Marketing managers can understand their overall customer portfolio better and reduce the effect of descriptive indicators via benefiting the fuzzy clustering results.
