Comparing two concepts of the OECD-NEA RK&M Initiative (2011–2019): The Set of Essential Records and the Key Information File

In the last decade, the Nuclear Energy Agency (NEA) of the OECD​​​​​​​ co-ordinated an international initiative to develop understanding and guidelines related to the longer-term preservation of records, knowledge and memory (RK&M) regarding radioactive waste repositories, the so-called “RK&M Initiative”. Their final report (NEA, 2019) can be read as a general guide to the RK&M preservation topic. In terms of practical support, the group prepared an RK&M preservation toolbox, comprising 35 different preservation mechanisms. Amongst those are classical, much discussed tools such as “archives”, “surface markers” or “land use control”, hitherto less discussed tools such as “international regulations”, “small time capsules” or “clear and planned responsibilities”, and two entirely new concepts: the Set of Essential Records (SER) and the Key Information File (KIF). In the current contribution, I present these two concepts, pointing out their role both in the wider RK&M preservation context (i.e. in the toolbox as a whole) and in the narrower “documents” context. My main focus is a comparative approach, addressing the peculiarities of the KIF and the SER concepts by working out the differences between the two. It becomes apparent that the KIF is far from being a condensation of the SER, but in fact KIF and SER are independent concepts: in terms of their authors/creators, their target audiences, and first and foremost their functioning, i.e. “how” they contribute to RK&M preservation.

Modern approaches to the protection of scientific and technical information as a result of intellectual creative activity

Keywords: scientific and technical information, intellectual property, trade secret,invention, utility model, rationalization proposal, WIPO PROOF, management system The article is devoted to defining terms for information inorder to use it effectively. New scientific and technical information is particularlyhighlighted. It is of particular value for commercialization processes. Objects of newinformation that may be objects of intellectual property rights are highlighted. It isshown that there are inconsistencies in the legislation of Ukraine regarding these objects.This applies to such objects as know-how, trade secrets, and innovation proposals.Unclear definitions of them as objects of intellectual property rights effect the effectiveness of their use. This will affect their sharing and the transfer of rights tothird parties.The problem of protecting new information is particularly investigated. The dangerof its illegal use arises already at the stage of creation. The analysed practice ofprivacy violations has shown this. The main reason that was identified is the lack ofcompetence of those who have access to it. This is especially true for information thatis subject to intellectual property rights. Many of them have poor knowledge of themethod of checking for patent purity and approaches to determining secrecy.A method for using WIPO PROOF is proposed. It allows you to confirm the existenceof an information file of a particular author at the time of its registration. Thearticle shows the possibility of using the ISO9001: 2015 and ISO/IES 27001 standardsBy the ISO/IES 270001 standard “Information technology — Securitytechniques — Information security management systems — Requirements” in 2019alone, the International Organization for Standards issued more than 67 thousandcertificates, which indicates its demand in the business environment.It was stated that in Ukraine it is necessary to resolve the issue of controversial informationproducts and actively use methods for its protection. Recommendationswere made to organizations on information resource management. This is the mainway to effectively develop them in modern conditions.

GETTING USED TO THE NEW: AN ANALYSIS OF THE LEADERSHIP STYLE IN SCHOOL DURING PANDEMIC COVID-19

The worldwide Covid-19 pandemic has significantly changed the leadership style of Malaysian school leaders. To balance the current leadership challenges of the pandemic and the rapidity of technology, school leaders must think ahead and infuse new ones in leadership styles. As a result, the purpose of this study was to identify the functions and behaviours of new leadership styles of school leaders. The results of the questionnaire analysis collected from 103 respondents (principals=74) and (headmasters=29) school leaders using SEM AMOS successfully identified and validated nine functions and 42 behaviours in the new school leadership style. These functions are virtual meetings, virtual forums or discussions, sharing of new information, file sharing, virtual communication, supervision of digital technology-assisted teaching, monitoring student performance with digital technology, promoting development and professionalism. These functions include virtual meetings, virtual forums or discussions, the dissemination of new information, file sharing, virtual communication, the supervision of digital technology-assisted teaching, the monitoring of student performance with digital technology, and the promotion of development and professionalism. This study is expected to have a significant impact on school leaders' use of new leadership styles in the school.

PDBeCIF: an open-source mmCIF/CIF parsing and processing package

Background Biomacromolecular structural data outgrew the legacy Protein Data Bank (PDB) format which the scientific community relied on for decades, yet the use of its successor PDBx/Macromolecular Crystallographic Information File format (PDBx/mmCIF) is still not widespread. Perhaps one of the reasons is the availability of easy to use tools that only support the legacy format, but also the inherent difficulties of processing mmCIF files correctly, given the number of edge cases that make efficient parsing problematic. Nevertheless, to fully exploit macromolecular structure data and their associated annotations such as multiscale structures from integrative/hybrid methods or large macromolecular complexes determined using traditional methods, it is necessary to fully adopt the new format as soon as possible. Results To this end, we developed PDBeCIF, an open-source Python project for manipulating mmCIF and CIF files. It is part of the official list of mmCIF parsers recorded by the wwPDB and is heavily employed in the processes of the Protein Data Bank in Europe. The package is freely available both from the PyPI repository (http://pypi.org/project/pdbecif) and from GitHub (https://github.com/pdbeurope/pdbecif) along with rich documentation and many ready-to-use examples. Conclusions PDBeCIF is an efficient and lightweight Python 2.6+/3+ package with no external dependencies. It can be readily integrated with 3rd party libraries as well as adopted for broad scientific analyses.

Versioning Catcher Software (VCS) untuk mendeteksi Sensitive Information File Versioning pada Linux Server

Abstrak Website merupakan media yang sangat populer untuk menemukan informasi. Membangun sebuah website diperlukan banyak sekali komponen file yang nantinya disimpan di dalam server. Untuk meminimalisir terjadinya peretasan website, diperlukan keamanan dari sisi sistem dan sisi pengguna. Berdasarkan TOP 10 OWASP, salah satu kerentanan yang biasa muncul adalah bocornya informasi sensitif akibat dari file versioning yang berada dalam server. Demi meminimalisir terjadinya kebocoran informasi sensitif dari kerentanan tersebut, maka penulis membuat program Versioning Catcher Software (VCS) yang berfungsi untuk mendeteksi keberadaan file versioning tersebut. Tujuan dilakukannya penelitian ini adalah untuk melindungi dan mencegah bocornya informasi sensitif di server. Hasil pembahasan dari penelitian ini dapat digunakan untuk meminimalisir terjadinya peretasan server akibat dari file versioning berisi informasi sensitif yang tidak segera ditangani.
