The Strategy of Using Social Networks in the Arab Archives

This study analyzes the use of social networks in the Arab national archives, the availability of a strategy for their use (objectives, content), and the numbers and specialization of staff managing and updating the archives’ content on social networks. It also examines which social platforms are used by archives, the number of their participants and followers, and to what extent the content of archives’ social platforms is archived. The study included twelve Arab national archives, as well as examples of foreign archives, to understand their strategy for using social networks. The study found that Arab national archives do not have a specific and declared strategy on the archive’s website or its social media platforms for the use of social networks. Only 54.5 percent of Arab National Archives use social networks; the number of social media platforms used by these twelve Arab national archives is seven platforms compared to eighteen social media platforms used by five foreign national archives. It also found that the most commonly used social media platforms in the Arab national archives are Facebook at 100 percent, YouTube at 50 percent, Twitter at 33.3 percent, LinkedIn at 16.7 percent, Instagram at 8.3 percent, and Google + at 8.3 percent, and that some of the national Aachives have not updated their content on social platforms for two years or more. Among the most important suggestions of the study is the need to develop a social media strategy in the Arab national archives, to diversify the archival content published and shared on social media, and to create a social media team responsible for planning and implementing the archives’ social media strategy

Assessing Process Suitability for Robotic Process Automation: A Process Mining Approach

Robotic Process Automation (RPA) is a technology for conducting time-consuming business activities. The implementation of RPA requires assessing processes\u27 suitability for automation. Traditionally, this assessment is done manually despite the fact that an accurate depiction of the process could be obtained using Process Mining. However, there is a lack of guidance on how to utilize Process Mining as a data-driven approach for conducting RPA process suitability assessment. For this reason, this research is aiming to propose a framework for process suitability assessment (FPSA). This Framework will provide organizations with a guide on performing a standard, data-driven RPA process suitability assessment using Process Mining. The development of the framework necessitated the identification of a standard set of criteria for assessment as well as a scoring model to measure such criteria. The evaluation of the framework showed evidence of the potential benefits that will ease the process assessment in RPA projects

Last Guidelines Overview of Consecutive Esotropia Management: Review Article

Background: Consecutive esotropia (ET) is persistent esodeviation for 24 weeks afterward bilateral lateral rectus recession (BLRR) for correcting exotropia (XT) with or without diplopia. Some patients may have limited eye movement; amblyopia and loss of binocularity can result. Early postoperative overcorrection has been recommended in surgical treatment of intermittent XT due to tendency towards postoperative exotropic drift. ET with small angles (within 15 PD) vanishes naturally over time, whereas bigger angles are more likely to be present at the start. Patients who have ET that has persisted for at least 24 weeks after BLRR and has been present for more than 15 postoperative days should have surgery. Objective: Hallmark the updated lines of management of consecutive esotropia. Conclusion: For the purpose of maintaining one MR muscle for a future intervention, several research have shown that ET can be performed consecutively after BLR recession by advancement of LR muscle previously recessed and MR muscle recession in the more deviating eye. Studies in recent years have sought to determine the effectiveness of the use of lateral rectus advancement in the treatment of consecutive ET

Serum and Circulatory Omentin mRNA Gene Expression as Predictive Markers of Systemic Lupus Erythematosus Disease Activity and Lupus Nephritis

Background: Lupus nephritis (LN) affects 50% of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). LN often leads to renal failure. Thus, early diagnosis of LN is mandatory for the prevention of complications. Objective: We aimed to evaluate serum and relative omentin mRNA gene expression levels as a noninvasive diagnostic test of LN and to assess their correlations with disease activity, clinical and laboratory features of SLE.Patients and Methods: Case-control study included 104 subjects, 60 patients with SLE were stratified into two subgroups LN group (n=25) and the non-LN group (n=35). Disease activity was assessed by the SLE disease activity index (SLEDAI). Measurement of serum omentin was done by ELISA and investigation of omentin mRNA relative expression was done by real-time PCR.Results: Our results detected that serum omentin levels were significantly lower in the LN group and non-LN group compared to controls. Intriguingly, omentin mRNA relative expression levels were significantly lower in the LN group and non-LN group compared to controls. Among the LN group, there were significant negative correlations between serum and relative omentin mRNA expression with SLEDAI, clinical, and laboratory features of LN. Moreover, SLEDAI, proteinuria, and serum creatinine were independently correlated with them. The sensitivities and the specificities of serum omentin were 91% and 65.5% respectively. While the relative omentin mRNA expression diagnostic power showed sensitivities and specificities of 93% and 68.8% respectively.Conclusion: LN group had significantly lower values of serum and relative omentin mRNA expression compared to non-LN and control groups. Additionally, it was negatively correlated with SLEDAI, clinical and laboratory features of LN. Thus, they could be used as non-invasive predictive markers of LN

Review Aspects of Using Social Annotation for Enhancing Search Engine Performance

Recently, search engines have improved to be more efficient in supporting user’s search process. Although they enhanced their capabilities to support user, still searcher spend long times in navigation. This is due to the different nature of users, where users have changeable interest and different culture, domain, and expressions. So, for improving search and make it closed to user’s expectation; user’s preferences have to be discovered. Nowadays, Information Retrieval researchers concern with Personalized Search which provides user’s preferences discovering. In this contribution, many efforts put path extracting user’s preferences through follow their behaviors, and action. Recently, researches focus on social annotations as additional metadata that may be used for extracting user’s preferences and interests.This paper reviews different aspects of using social annotation (as additional metadata) for enhancing search engines capabilities. Moreover, it especially focuses on personalized search which became today part of web 3.0 improvements. So, it proposes to categorize efforts in this field into two parts. The first concerns with improving personalized search by extracting user’s interests, and the second is for supporting personalized search by linking search phases to standard model
