Процессы цифровой трансформации, достигая глобальных масштабов развития и распространения, не только затрагивают коммуникационные технологии, но и оказывают преобразовательное воздействие на все сферы социально-правового взаимодействия. Так, киберпространственные механизмы являются частью современного электронного документооборота. Электронная цифровая подпись в настоящее время представляет собой широко распространенный продукт цифрового развития общества. До настоящего периода времени принято было считать, что она обладает характеристиками высокой степени правовой надежности и безопасности. Авторы статьи, анализируя практику правонарушений в сфере применения электронной цифровой подписи, ставят под сомнение данный довод. Отмечая слабые стороны механизма подтверждения правомочным лицом авторства при помощи криптографически преобразованного путем электронного шифрования реквизита документа, они предлагают возможные пути разрешения существующих на современном этапе вопросов данной области социально-правового взаимодействия: обязательного присутствия лица, либо лично, либо он-лайн, с видеофиксацией и его идентификацией. The processes of digital transformation, reaching global scales of development and dissemination affect not only communication technologies, but also have a transformative impact on all spheres of social and legal interaction. Thus, cyberspace mechanisms are part of the modern electronic document flow. Electronic digital signature is currently a widespread product of digital development of society. Until now, it has been generally assumed that it has the characteristics of a high degree of legal reliability and security. The authors of the article, analyzing the practice of offenses in the field of electronic digital signature, question this argument. Noting the weaknesses of the mechanism for confirming authorship by an authorized person with the help of cryptographically-converted by electronic encryption of the document details, they suggest possible ways to resolve existing issues in this area of social and legal interaction at the present stage. Mandatory presence of the person, either in person or online, with video recording and identification.

A significant increase in information flows in modern educational organizations, an increase in the dynamics of development of higher educational institutions requires the introduction and more effective use of information and telecommunication technologies both in the educational process and in the management activities of higher educational institutions. In essence, we are talking about the digital transformation of the activities of academic institutions. Digital transformation is designed to optimize all business processes for healers and, in particular, workflow processes, which will reduce the number of documents created, reduce the time it takes to find documentary information necessary for employees’ activities, and increase the effectiveness of control of management decisions. These issues take on particular weight in the context of distance learning during a pandemic. The article deals with the issues of modeling business processes of electronic document management for the selection, coordination and approval of topics and scientific supervisors in the framework of the design of a diploma/course in higher education institutions during online training. The practical implementation of these business processes and the corresponding document flow is carried out on the basis of low-code technology. As a tool for implementing the software, it is proposed to use the low-code Microsoft Power Platform, which includes the following modules: 1) Power Apps – for quick creation of mobile applications and portals; 2) Power Automate – module of automation of business processes and routine tasks; 3) Power BI – allows you to collect, process and visualize data from hundreds of data sources; 4) Power Virtual Agent – designed to create chatbots. All of these modules are part of the cloud platform Microsoft 365.

Information and communication technologies can be an added value in order to provide integrated services to customers. With the technological advancements of the last decades, writing is increasingly done in electronic documents. Digital signatures are designed to ensure authentication, integrity, and non-repudiation of such documents. The methodology was based on the literature review of the field, as well as the description of the case study which emphasizes the added value of the developed application, since it addresses concerns of several dimensions of sustainability. The purpose of the chapter is to describe a case study in which an Android mobile application, SoftDigital, was developed for document flow management in a hospital environment, meeting the principles of sustainability design for the development of software systems. It is therefore considered that the main conclusions are to allow healthcare professionals and patients (or their legal representative) to integrate their digital signature into documents for approval of treatments electronically.

The use of digital technologies such as Internet of Things and advanced data analytics are central in digitally transforming manufacturing companies towards Industry 4.0. Success cases are frequently reported, and there is clear evidence of technology interventions conducted by industry. However, measuring the impact and effect of such interventions on digital maturity and on the organizational adoption can be challenging. Therefore, the research aim of this paper is to explore how the combination of the different methods of Industrial Internet Playground (IIP) pilots, Shadow Infrastructure (SI) and digital maturity assessment can assist in conducting and documenting the technical, as well as organisational, impact of digital interventions. Through an elaborate literature review of existing digital maturity assessment tools and key dimensions in digital transformation, we have developed a digital maturity assessment tool (DMAT), which is presented and applied in the paper to identify digital development areas and to evaluate and document the effects of digital interventions. Thus, the paper contributes with new knowledge of how the IIP pilot and SI combined with digital maturity assessment can support effective, transparent and documented digital transformation throughout an organisation, as explored through theory and a practice case.

Abstract Over the past decade, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) have received increasing attention and are being used in the areas of harvesting, videotaping, and the military industry. In this article, the consideration is focused on areas where video recording is required for ground inspections. This paper describes modern communication technologies and systems that enable interaction and data exchange between UAVs and a ground control station (GCS). This article focuses on different architectures of communication systems, establishing the characteristics of each to identify the preferred architecture that does not require a significant consumption of resources and whose data transmission is reliable. A coherent architecture that includes multiple UAVs, wireless sensor networks, cellular networks, GCSs, and satellite network to duplicate communications for enhanced system security has been offered. Some reliability problems have been discussed, the solution of which was suggested to be a backup connection via satellite, i.e., a second connection. This study focused not only on the communication channels but also on the data exchanged between system components, indicating the purpose of their application. Some of the communication problems and shortcomings of various systems, as well as further focus areas and improvement recommendations were discussed.

Since 2019, the Kaliningrad Region has run a regional programme for digital transformation as part of the national initiative The Digital Economy of the Russian Federation. The programme seeks to improve the quality of life by creating information infrastructure and streamlining public administration. The regional Ministry of Digital Development has presented a report on programme implementation, which placed emphasis on economic performance. The study employed the questionnaire survey method to carry out a sociological analysis of the regional population as a participant in digital transformation. Quota sampling was used to select 384 respondents. Slightly over a half of the population had a positive attitude to digitalisation, and about 20 per cent believed that the digital economy led to the degradation of society. The development of a high-tech economy was named the main advantage of digitalisation and proliferation of digital surveillance, its distinct disadvantage. Kaliningraders reported heavy use of digital technology. Yet, the low indices of digital literacy and personal information protection raise concerns. The findings, which supplement the regional digitalisation report with sociological data, may help in planning and delivering activities within the regional digital transformation programme.

Digital transformation is an ongoing process that is driven by the recent advances in digitalization as well as the development of information and communication technologies (ICT) that penetrate all socio-economic fields of everyday life and business. In this paper, we describe the digital transformation of energy companies. We show that successful transformation is based on skills, expertise and knowledge of the employees that need to be created and maintained. In addition, we show that digital competences become a key element in building capacities that are required for the digital transformation. This is of a particular importance for the energy companies that are experiencing major changes on the path of transition toward low-carbon economy and renewable energy.

The question of how the digital transformation of the public sphere affects political processes has been of interest to researchers since the spread of the Internet in the early 1990s. However, today there is no clear or unambiguous answer to this question; expert estimates differ radically, from extremely positive to extremely negative. This article attempts to take a comprehensive approach to this issue, conceptualizing the transformations taking place in the public sphere under the influence of Internet communication technologies, taking their political context into account, and identifying the relationship between these changes and possible transformations of political regimes. In order to achieve these goals, several tasks are tackled during this research. The first section examines the issue as to whether the concept of the public sphere can be used in a non-democratic context. It also delineates two main types of the public sphere, the “democratic public sphere” and the “authoritarian public sphere,” in order to take into account the features of public discourse in the context of various political regimes. The second section discusses the special aspects of the digital transformation of the public sphere in a democratic context. The third section considers the special aspects of the digital transformation of the public sphere in a non-democratic context. The concluding section summarizes the results of the study, states the existing gaps and difficulties, outlines the ways for their possible extension, and raises questions requiring attention from other researchers.
