Well, unfortunately, I had it a bit wrong.

APIs and service do have a very direct and 1-1 relationship: an API is the interface of a service. However, what is different is that one's about the implementation and is focused on the provider, and the other is about using the functionality and is focused on the consumer. The service of course is what matters to the provider and API is what matters to the consumer.

So its clearly more than just a new name.

Services: If you build it will they come?

These days, commodity-off-the-shelf (COTS) hardware and software are used to build high-end and powerful workstations and servers to be deployed in today's local area networks of private homes and small- to medium-sized business. Typically, these servers are multipurpose and shared - running networking functionalities involving IP packet forwarding in addition to other CPU intensive applications. In this paper we study and investigate the impact of running CPU-bound applications on the performance of IP packet forwarding. We measure and compare the impact and performance for the two operating systems of choice for home and small-business users, namely Linux and Windows XP. The performance is studied in terms of key performance metrics which include throughput, packet loss, round-trip delay, and CPU availability. For our measurements, we consider today's typical home network hosts of modern processors and Gigabit network cards. We also consider different configuration setups and utilize open-source tools to generate relatively high traffic rates. Our empirical results show that Linux exhibits superior performance over Windows XP in terms of IP forwarding performance. Results also show that, unlike Windows XP, the IP forwarding performance of Linux is not significantly impacted by running CPU-bound applications.

We describe the design of a mobile collaborative tool that helps teams managing critical computing infrastructures in organizations, a task that is usually designated Business Continuity Management. The design process started with a requirements definition phase based on interviews with professional teams. The elicited requirements highlight four main concerns: collaboration support, knowledge management, team performance, and situation awareness. Based on these concerns, we developed a data model and tool supporting the collaborative update of Situation Matrixes. The matrixes aim to provide an integrated view of the operational and contextual conditions that frame critical events and inform the operators' responses to events. The paper provides results from our preliminary experiments with Situation Matrixes.

Process Modeling has been a very active research topic for the last decades. One of its main issues is the externalization of knowledge and its acquisition for further use, as this remains deeply related to the quality of the resulting process models produced by this task. This paper presents a method and a graphical supporting tool for process elicitation and modeling, combining the Group Storytelling technique with the advances of Text Mining and Natural Language Processing. The implemented tool extends its previous versions with several functionalities to facilitate group story telling by the users, as well as to improve the results of the acquired process model from the stories.

The paper explores the application of Web 2.0 technologies to support product development efforts in a global, virtual and cross-functional setting. It analyses the dichotomy between the prevailing hierarchical structure of CAD/PLM/PDM systems and the principles of the Social Web under the light of the emerging product development trends. Further it introduces the concept of Engineering 2.0, intended as a more bottom up and lightweight knowledge sharing approach to support early stage design decisions within virtual and cross-functional product development teams. The lessons learned collected from a cross-company study highlight how to further developblogs, wikis, forums and tags for the benefit of new product development teams, highlighting opportunities, challenges and no-go areas.

This paper presents a sequential edge swap (SQES) mechanism to design a robust network for a healthcare system utilising energy and communication range of nodes. Two operations: sequential degree difference operation (SQDDO) and sequential angle sum operation (SQASO) are performed to enhance the robustness of network. With equivalent degrees of nodes from the network's centre to its periphery, these operations build a robust network structure. Disaster attacks that have a substantial impact on the network are carried out using the network information. To identify a link between the malicious and disaster attacks, the Pearson coefficient is employed. SQES creates a robust network structure as a single objective optimisation solution by changing the connections of nodes based on the positive correlation of these attacks. SQES beats the current methods, according to simulation results. When compared to hill-climbing algorithm, simulated annealing, and ROSE, respectively, the robustness of SQES is improved by roughly 26%, 19% and 12%.

Une gigantesque panne d'électricité a affecté lundi une large partie du Pakistan, dont ses plus grandes villes Lahore et Karachi, avant que les autorités n'annoncent en soirée le retour progressif du courant.

Les coupures d'électricité sont fréquentes au Pakistan, englué depuis des années dans de graves problèmes budgétaires et énergétiques, et dont le système de distribution est complexe et vétuste.

La panne a été causée par un dysfonctionnement survenu à 07H30 locales (02H30 GMT) à la suite de mesures d'économies prises sur le réseau.

"Nous espérons que le courant sera rétabli partout dans le pays d'ici ce (lundi) soir", a déclaré dans un communiqué vidéo le ministre de l'Energie, Khurram Dastagir Khan.

La nuit avançant, il a assuré sur Twitter que l'électricité commençait à être rétablie progressivement.

Le ministère a tweeté que le courant était revenu dans le centre d'Islamabad et à Gujranwala, à quelque 200 km au sud-est de la capitale.

M. Khan a également retweeté le message d'un usager qui se félicitait qu'il y ait à nouveau "de la lumière à Lahore", la deuxième ville la plus peuplée du pays, avec plus de 10 millions d'habitants.

La panne a été causée par une variation de la fréquence électrique sur le réseau national, au redémarrage des unités de production électrique lundi matin.

Ces unités sont temporairement éteintes la nuit en hiver pour économiser du carburant, a expliqué M. Khan à la presse.

La plupart des hôpitaux, industries et institutions gouvernementales sont équipées de générateurs. Mais les ménages et petits commerces n'ont souvent pas les moyens de s'offrir un tel équipement.

Dans le nord du Pakistan, les températures devaient tomber lundi soir en dessous de 0°. Le chauffage au gaz est le plus répandu, mais n'est pas non plus toujours très fiable, les délestages étant fréquents en raison d'une pénurie de gaz.

Les réseaux de téléphonie mobile ont été également perturbés par la panne, selon un tweet du régulateur pakistanais des télécoms.

L'économie pakistanaise est déjà chancelante avec une inflation galopante, une devise nationale - la roupie - en chute libre et des réserves de change au plus bas. Une telle coupure d'électricité ne fait qu'accroître la pression sur les petits commerces.

A Rawalpindi, ville voisine de la capitale, Muhammad Iftikhar Sheikh, 71 ans, un vendeur d'électroménager, a déploré ne pas pouvoir tester ses appareils devant les clients.

"Les clients n'achètent jamais sans essayer d'abord", pestait-il. Du coup, "on est tous assis là, à ne rien faire".

Dans les écoles, les cours ont souvent eu lieu dans la pénombre, pour celles ne disposant pas d'éclairage sur batterie.

A Karachi (sud), où les températures étaient plus élevées, un commerçant a indiqué à l'AFP craindre que son stock entier de produits laitiers ne soit perdu, sans réfrigération.

Et Khurrum Khan, un imprimeur de 39 ans, voyait les commandes s'empiler, sans pouvoir y répondre. Les problèmes d'électricité sont "une malédiction permanente dont nos gouvernements n'ont pas réussi à se débarrasser", regrettait-il.

Une panne similaire en janvier 2021 avait plongé l'essentiel de ce pays de 220 millions d'habitants dans le noir pendant plusieurs heures, après qu'un dysfonctionnement technique dans le sud eut déclenché une réaction en chaîne dans plusieurs centrales électriques.

Les coupures d'électricité sont un problème récurrent au Pakistan. Mais la situation s'est encore détériorée ces derniers mois, la situation financière dramatique du pays aggravant un peu plus ses difficultés d'approvisionnement énergétique.

Les ménages ont été touchés, mais l'industrie également, notamment le textile, qui représente environ 60% des exportations pakistanaises.

(Belga) La reine Mathilde et la princesse Élisabeth effectueront une visite de travail en Égypte du 14 au 16 mars, a indiqué le Palais royal dans un communiqué lundi soir.

"Cette visite marquera l'intérêt historique de la famille royale pour l'Égypte antique et rendra hommage à la reine Élisabeth, dont l'intérêt et la passion sont à l'origine de l'épanouissement de l'égyptologie en Belgique. La Reine et la Princesse visiteront plusieurs sites que la reine Élisabeth a elle-même visités lors de ses voyages en Égypte, notamment le tombeau de Toutankhamon. Au Caire, elles assisteront également au vernissage d'une exposition consacrée à la reine Élisabeth et à l'égyptologie belge", peut-on lire dans le communiqué. La Reine et la Princesse visiteront aussi différents sites archéologiques à Louxor et ses environs, où des institutions et des universités belges effectuent des fouilles. Cette visite de travail commémore par ailleurs plusieurs anniversaires célébrés en 2022 et 2023: le 200e anniversaire du déchiffrement des hiéroglyphes par Jean-François Champollion, les centenaires de la découverte du tombeau de Toutankhamon et de sa visite par la reine Élisabeth, le 125e anniversaire de l'émergence de l'égyptologie belge et le 75e anniversaire de la mort de l'égyptologue belge Jean Capart.

This paper aims to analyse the effectiveness of cost control oriented enterprise financial risk management. Firstly, it analyses the importance of enterprise financial risk management. Secondly, the position of cost control in enterprise financial risk management was analysed. Cost control can be used to reduce the operating costs of enterprises, improve their profitability, and thus reduce the financial risks they face. Finally, a corporate financial risk management strategy is constructed from several aspects: establishing a sound risk management system, predicting and responding to various risks, optimising fund operation management, strengthening internal control, and enhancing employee risk awareness. The results show that after applying the proposed management strategy, the enterprise performs well in cost control oriented enterprise financial risk management, with a cost accounting accuracy of 95% and an audit system completeness of 90%. It can also help the enterprise develop emergency plans and provide comprehensive risk management strategy coverage.

This systematic literature study employed bibliometric analysis to identify workplace mindfulness-related methods and practices in literature published from 2000 to 2020 by leading nations, institutions, journals, authors, and keywords. We also assessed the impact of workplace mindfulness research papers. Scopus analysis tools provided a literature report for 638 Scopus articles used in the study. Using VOSviewer, leading nations, institutions, articles, authors, journals, and keyword co-occurrence network maps were constructed. PRISMA was used to identify 56 publications to recognise workplace mindfulness literature's significant achievements. The research's main contribution is a deep review of neurological mindfulness and psychological measuring tools as workplace mindfulness tool categories. The study is the first to use the PRISMA technique to capture the essential contributions of workplace mindfulness papers from 2000 to 2020.

This study investigates the effects of social media marketing efforts (SMME) on smartphone brand identification, attachment, association, and willingness to pay premium prices. A survey of 320 smartphone users who followed official social media handles managed by smartphone companies was conducted for this purpose. PLS-SEM was used to analyse the collected data. The findings demonstrated importance of SMME dimensions. According to the study's findings, the smartphone brand's SMMEs had significant impact on brand identification, brand association, and brand attachment. The results revealed that SMMEs had significant impact on willingness to pay the premium price. The findings also show that brand identification, attachment, and association mediated the relationship between SMMEs and willingness to pay a premium price. The findings of this study will be useful in developing social media marketing strategies for smartphones. This study demonstrates the use of social media marketing to promote mobile phones, particularly in emerging markets.

Despite the considerable growth potential predicted for mobile games, little research explored what motivates users to be sticky and make purchases in the mobile game context. Drawing on uses and gratifications theory (UGT), this study evaluates the influencing effects of players' characteristics (i.e., individual gratification and individual situation) and the mobile game structure (i.e., presence and governance) on players' mobile game behaviour (i.e., stickiness and purchase intention). Specifically, the model was extended with factors of the individual situation and governance. After surveying 439 samples, the research model was examined using the Partial least squares structural equation modelling (PLS-SEM) approach. The results indicate that stickiness is a crucial antecedent for users' in-game purchase intention. The individual situation plays an essential role in influencing user gratification, and individual gratification is the most vital criterion affecting stickiness. Finally, except for incentives, presence, and integration positively affect stickiness. This study provides further insights into both mobile game design and governance strategies.

TCP BBR is one of the most powerful congestion control algorithms. In this article, we provide a comprehensive review of BBR analysis, expanding on existing knowledge across various fronts. Utilising ns3 simulations, we evaluate BBR's performance under diverse conditions, generating graphical representations. Our findings reveal flaws in the probe's RTT phase duration estimation and unequal bandwidth sharing between BBR and CUBIC protocols. Specifically, we demonstrated that the probe's RTT phase duration estimation algorithm is flawed and that BBR and CUBIC generally do not share bandwidth equally. Towards the end of the article, we propose a new improved version of TCP BBR which minimises these problems of inequity in bandwidth sharing and corrects the inaccuracies of the two key parameters RTprop and cwnd. Consequently, the BBR' protocol maintains very good fairness with the Cubic protocol, with an index that is almost equal to 0.98, and an equity index over 0.95.

To improve the effectiveness of online training for music education, it was investigated how to improve the pulse-coupled neural network in image processing for spectral image segmentation. The study proposes a two-scale descent method to achieve oblique spectral correction. Subsequently, a convolutional neural network was optimised using a two-channel feature fusion recognition network for music theory notation recognition. The results showed that this image segmentation method had the highest accuracy, close to 98%, and the accuracy of spectral tilt correction was also as high as 98.4%, which provided good image pre-processing results. When combined with the improved convolutional neural network, the average accuracy of music theory symbol recognition was about 97% and the highest score of music majors was improved by 16 points. This shows that the method can effectively improve the teaching effect of online training in music education and has certain practical value.

We propose that technological, service-dominant and design logics must interplay for an IT artefact to succeed. Based on data from a project aiming at a B2B platform for manufacturing small and medium enterprises (SMEs) in Europe, we explore these three logics in an agile software design context. By using an inductive approach, we theorise about what is needed for the alignment of the three logics. We contribute with a novel theoretical lens, the Framework for Adaptive Space. We offer insights into the importance of continuously reflecting on all three logics during the agile software design process to ensure mutual understanding among the agile team and the B2B platform end-users involved.

The spread of COVID-19 results in disruption, uncertainty, complexity, and ambiguity in all businesses. Employees help companies achieve their aims. To manage human resources sustainably, analyse organisational strategy. This thorough research study attempts to find previously unidentified challenges, cutting-edge techniques, and surprising decisions in human resource management outside of healthcare organisations during the COVID-19 pandemic. The narrative review examined corporate human resource management measures to mitigate COVID-19. Fifteen publications were selected for the study after removing duplicates and applying the inclusion and exclusion criteria. This article examines HR's COVID-19 response. Human resource management's response to economic and financial crises has been extensively studied, but the COVID-19 pandemic has not. This paper reviewed the literature to reach its goal. The results followed the AMO framework for human resource policies and procedures and the HR management system. This document suggests COVID-19 pandemic-related changes to human resource management system architecture, policies, and practises. The study created a COVID-19 pandemic human resource management framework based on the literature. The COVID-19 pandemic had several negative effects, including social and behavioural changes, economic shock, and organisational disruption.

In the era of big data, enterprises have accumulated a large amount of research and development data. Effective management of their precipitated data and safe sharing of data can improve the collaboration efficiency of research and development personnel, which has become the top priority of enterprise development. This paper proposes to use blockchain technology to assist the collaboration efficiency of enterprise R&D personnel. Firstly, the multi-chain blockchain platform is used to realise the data sharing of internal data of enterprise R&D data department, project internal data and enterprise data centre, and then the process of construction of multi-chain structure and data sharing is analysed. Finally, searchable encryption was introduced to achieve data retrieval and secure sharing, improving the collaboration efficiency of enterprise research and development personnel and maximising the value of data assets. Through the experimental verification, the multi-chain structure improves the collaboration efficiency of researchers and data security sharing.

Emergency disaster management presents substantial risks and obstacles to shield tunnel building projects, particularly in the event of water leakage accidents. Contemporary water leak detection is critical for guaranteeing safety by reducing the likelihood of disasters and the severity of any resulting damages. However, it can be difficult. Deep learning models can analyse images taken inside the tunnel to look for signs of water damage. This study introduces a unique strategy that employs deep learning techniques, generative adversarial networks (GAN) with long short-term memory (LSTM) for water leakage detection i shield tunnel construction (WLD-STC) to conduct classification and prediction tasks on the massive image dataset. The results demonstrate that for identifying and analysing water leakage episodes during shield tunnel construction, the WLD-STC strategy using LSTM-based GAN networks outperformed other methods, particularly on huge data.

To achieve psychological and emotional analysis of massive internet chats, researchers have used statistical methods, machine learning, and neural networks to analyse the dynamic tendencies of texts dynamically. For long readers, the author first compares and explores the differences between the two psychoanalysis algorithms based on the emotion dictionary and machine learning for simple sentences, then studies the expansion algorithm of the emotion dictionary, and finally proposes an extended text psychoanalysis algorithm based on conditional random field. According to the experimental results, the mental dictionary's accuracy, recall, and F-score based on the cognitive understanding of each additional ten words were calculated. The optimisation decreased, and the memory and F-score improved. An <i>F</i>-value greater than 1, which is the most effective indicator for evaluating the effectiveness of a mental analysis problem, can better demonstrate that the algorithm is adaptive in the literature dictionary. It has been proven that this scheme can achieve good results in analysing emotional tendencies and has higher efficiency than ordinary weight-based psychological sentiment analysis algorithms.

In the context of smart city development, the managed pressure drilling (MPD) drilling process faces many uncertainties, but the characteristics of the process are complex and require accurate wellbore pressure control. However, this process runs the risk of introducing un-modelled dynamics into the system. To this problem, this paper employs neural network control techniques to construct a dual-network system for throttle pressure control, the design encompasses both the controller and identifier components. The radial basis function (RBF) network and proportional features are connected in parallel in the controller structure, and the RBF network learning algorithm is used to train the identifier structure. The simulation results show that the actual wellbore pressure can quickly track the reference pressure value when the pressure setpoint changes. In addition, the controller based on neural network realises effective control, which enables the system to track the input target quickly and achieve stable convergence.

Intelligent digital virtual technology has become an indispensable part of modern construction, but there are also some problems in its practical application. Therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the design of intelligent building image processing systems from many aspects. Starting from image digital processing methods, this paper studies the digital twin virtual design scene construction method and related algorithms, converts the original image into a colour digital image through a greyscale algorithm, and then combines morphological knowledge and feature point extraction methods to complete the construction of a three-dimensional virtual environment. Finally, through the comparison of traditional image processing effects with smart building images based on digital twins and BIM technology, the results show that the optimised image processing results have higher clarity, sharper contrast, and a sensitivity increased by 5.84%, presenting better visual effects and solving the risk of misjudgement caused by inaccurate image recognition.

This study investigates the well-being of healthcare professionals in India, with a specific focus on the detrimental effects of the pandemic on their mental and physical health, including stress, burnout, and fatigue. This research examines the roles played by calling, mindfulness, and compassionate love as essential resources in promoting the well-being of healthcare professionals. Utilising structural equation modelling (SEM), the results reveal a significant cause and effect relationship between calling, mindfulness, and compassionate love and their influence on overall well-being. Furthermore, the study identifies a noteworthy parallel mediation effect, demonstrating that mindfulness and compassionate love serve as mediators in the relationship between calling and well-being. This research offers practitioners invaluable insights into the effective utilisation of mindfulness and compassionate love practices to enhance the overall well-being of healthcare professionals.
