    The thesis is concerning the lack of emphasis of human rights in the works and treaties of World Intellectual Property Organization. So, it looked at finding a human rights framework for World Intellectual Property Organization, which would provide greater accessibility and participation by the society. In order to frame it, the impacts of intellectual property on human rights were analyzed. The implementation of the WIPO Development Agenda was also considered and its contribution along with the participation of NGOs towards the building of such a framework was evaluated. The thesis finds that as there is nothing in the WIPO mandate which prevents WIPO from emphasizing human rights to a greater extent, the integration of human rights into intellectual property policies in the future implementation of the WIPO Development Agenda would be an advancement in building a human rights framework for WIPO

    Development of a Traffic Control System by Using Microcontroller Based Barricade

    Traffic jam is one of the major problems in a densely populated mega city like Dhaka whereas its population and number of running vehicles are much more than its capacity. Faulty traffic signaling systems, inadequate manpower, narrow road spaces and overtaking tendencyof drivers create pro-longed traffic jams. Due to traffic jam a substantial portion of working hours have to be left on streets which indirectly put adverse impact on economy and unavoidable road accident which results loss of lives. As the number of road users constantly increases and resources provided by current infrastructures are limited, intelligent traffic control system has become a very important issue. In this paper a microcontroller based Traffic Control System is introduced which will make the drivers bound to follow the traffic rules bycontrolling traffic system, decreasing the rate of accident, controlling crowd, lowering the tendency of road blocking etc. This plan can be applied in cross road junction which are so busy and the sectors those experience a great traffic load. Important cross road junctions of our country are Science lab junction; Shahabagh junction; Gazipur Cross junction; Shapla Chottor, Motijhil etc. Moreover, this system can be applied in 35 points in Bangladesh in an effective way.In this system steel barrier is used to control traffic system which can be closed or opened by using microcontroller and a definite time period is needed to be set in microcontroller. This process is similar to the traffic light system used in mega city of a country but the main difference is in this system, drivers are bound to maintain the traffic rules. Thus, this real-time technique can be able to solve the problem

    Analysing the capacity of the community pharmacy setting for providing healthcare services : a collaborative stakeholder approach

    University of Technology Sydney. Graduate School of Health.Background: Primary Health Networks (PHNs) are independent organisations that aim to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of health services at a primary care level. The integration of community pharmacy services (CPSs) into primary care practice can be enhanced by developing suitable implementation programs. Two key steps are implicated in this process: (1) identify determinants of practice that can hinder (i.e., barriers) or enable (i.e., facilitators) CPS implementation (2) prioritise the determinants that should be primarily addressed. These determinants have been widely researched from the perspective of community pharmacists but not from the perspectives of other key stakeholders. Objectives: To identify the determinants of implementation of CPSs in Australia using a collaborative stakeholder approach, and prioritise the key determinants to be addressed to enhance the implementation of CPSs in a PHN in Australia. Methods: A systematic review of qualitative studies was conducted to identify determinants of CPS implementation based on the perspectives of key stakeholders i.e., patients, nurses and general practitioners (GPs) (Chapter 3). A qualitative study was conducted in the Western Sydney PHN in two phases. (1) Semi-structured interviews were conducted with ground-level stakeholders i.e., patients, pharmacists, GPs and a practice manager, to identify determinants relevant to this setting. Framework analysis methodology was used to analyse the data. (2) A stakeholder workshop was conducted with ground-level and system-level (i.e., PHN) stakeholders to prioritise key determinants to be addressed, using a four-quadrant priority matrix. Results: Sixty-three determinants of CPS implementation were identified in the systematic review (Chapter 3) across six ecological levels: (1) the patient; (2) individual healthcare professionals; (3) relationships between individuals; (4) community pharmacy setting; (5) community pharmacy service; and (6) community and healthcare system. This list of determinants was combined with previous pharmacist-centred literature to create an overarching framework of determinants that was applied in the qualitative study (Chapter 4). Twenty-two key determinants were selected in the qualitative study based on the importance and feasibility of addressing them in practice. The stakeholders agreed upon three determinants to address initially (Chapter 4). Conclusion: A comprehensive list of determinants of practice that influence the implementation of CPSs in Australia was created by combining the results of the systematic review with previous pharmacist-centred literature. This list can be used to identify determinants of practice to CPS implementation in other settings. To enhance the implementation of CPSs in the Western Sydney PHN, first implementation efforts should be directed towards the twenty-two key determinants of pharmacy practice, focusing initially on the three determinants agreed upon by the stakeholders. Importantly, future research must continue to engage stakeholders in the development evaluation of strategies to enhance CPS implementation

    Predicting User-specific Future Activities using LSTM-based Multi-label Classification

    User-specific future activity prediction in the healthcare domain based on previous activities can drastically improve the services provided by the nurses. It is challenging because, unlike other domains, activities in healthcare involve both nurses and patients, and they also vary from hour to hour. In this paper, we employ various data processing techniques to organize and modify the data structure and an LSTM-based multi-label classifier for a novel 2-stage training approach (user-agnostic pre-training and user-specific fine-tuning). Our experiment achieves a validation accuracy of 31.58\%, precision 57.94%, recall 68.31%, and F1 score 60.38%. We concluded that proper data pre-processing and a 2-stage training process resulted in better performance. This experiment is a part of the "Fourth Nurse Care Activity Recognition Challenge" by our team "Not A Fan of Local Minima"
