Global warming is a serious environmental problem, one of the causes of global warming is the cutting down of forests to produce paper. Paperless evaluation in elementary schools can be a revolutionary solution to prevent global warming. The purpose of this study is to describe and analyze the success of paperless culture and measure the strength of factors on the routine use of e-learning green computing intranet in Adiwiyata schools. Previous studies have mostly discussed the impact of environmental learning on students' awareness of the importance of protecting the environment. This research can provide new information on preventing global warming of paperless evaluation routine culture. This research uses a qualitative approach. Data were collected through interviews, observations, and documentation. Research question one used interactive analysis and research question two used Force Field Analysis (FFA). The results of this study found that the success of the paperless evaluation routine can shape the e-government character culture. The conclusion is that paperless evaluation can save one tree every year because the supporting factors are powerful and greatly contribute to preventing global warming. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

An intranet is a beneficial tool, most commonly utilised and researched in corporate settings, but can also be found within healthcare. An organisational intranet has many of the same functions as the internet while also having a security firewall associated with it, meaning that only those with security access to the site are able to gain access. An evaluation study, using a two-phase process, of a Nursing Intranet within a healthcare organisation in one urban hospital in New Zealand is presented. First a content audit was undertaken, before using a selected framework to evaluate the content, design and functionality of the Nursing Intranet. The results from this evaluation identified some strengths, but also areas to improve. Further research, including the development of tools to evaluate intranets in a healthcare setting are needed to ensure information is more readily accessible to health professional staff.

Orientation: Limited literature on onboarding during COVID-19 and the future of onboarding exists. Research purpose: The purpose of this study was to explore the implementation of employee onboarding during COVID-19, as well as the future of onboarding within a South African municipality. Motivation for the study: This research was motivated by the difficulties encountered in conducting online employee onboarding during the COVID-19 pandemic, along with the uncertain landscape of onboarding practices within a South African municipality. Research approach/design and method: The research employed a qualitative approach, conducting interviews with participants from a South African municipality. Thematic analysis was utilised to examine the data. Main findings: Several themes on onboarding during COVID-19 emerged from the study, including the use of videoconferencing tools, intranet system usage, and more. The main themes of future onboarding were intranet, improving onboarding processes, and face-to-face onboarding. Several interviewees showcased frustration with the implementation of video conferencing tools, and the impact of load shedding. Participants suggested that onboarding practices might evolve beyond the pandemic as technology implementation becomes more commonplace. Practical/managerial implications: Human resource professionals must be prepared for the future of employee onboarding, embracing the technological advancements that facilitate this process. Failure to keep abreast with new technology will hinder employee onboarding efforts, potentially impeding their ability to effectively integrate new employees. Contribution/value-add: This study shed light on the state of employee onboarding within a South African municipality, and can assist to improve the onboarding process and render it future fit.

The role of data visualization inside companies today, and with increasing emphasis in the near future, will play an essential role not only for the management of discrete and/or isolated events, not only for the achievement of a better reputational positioning on an aesthetic level, but for generating long-term tangible change. The role of visualization in the corporate system of the near future will shape – through the critical lens of design – the organization as a whole and its results, determining its success in terms of sustainable innovation. This contribution explores a new model of intranet, as a functional and operational tool in response to contemporary changes in company dynamics, in individual as well as collective contributions. A tool in response to the need to understand the complexity of the company system, and in response to the need to define, redefine and communicate one’s culture in a more fluid dimension and aimed at exploration by enabling an open, shared, and collaborative environment (Mercanti, 2020). Again, a concrete functional/operational expression of a new business model. A heterarchical model that is not original in its outward appearance as much as in terms of content to qualify and amplify the organizational memory.

The world of corporate communications has actively begun to use new technologies to effectively disseminate an organization's message to interested audiences - both internal and external. Unlike everyday communication, corporate communications puts this process on a more professional (and commercial) basis, thereby controlling the organization's media relations, crisis communication, communication with external audiences, with investors, and internal communication between managers and staff.

Firm‐wide integrated organisational applications such as intranets, enterprise portals, content repositories, and wikis are often instrumental in supporting knowledge work. Serving as centralised "containers" of codified content that facilitate knowledge work, one essential requirement is continuous reuse and management of codified content. In this paper, our investigation aims to determine suitable perspectives to manage codified content, by focusing on one specific integrated organisational infrastructure application, namely intranets. Findings from three case studies identified three modes to manage codified content for knowledge work for enterprise content systems and are: (a) shared, (b) controlled, and (c) informal. In addition, based on the three modes (or ways), findings also highlight four elements that impact the management of codified content for knowledge work, that is, (a) content contributions, (b) content sharing, (c) access to expertise, and (d) control of codified content.

Nowadays, many universities face bandwidth saturation problem caused by several origins. These include youtube abusively use, online games and especially illegal downloading that makes havoc to Peer-toPeer protocol e.g. BitTorrent. The latter is often associated with data piracy and copyright violation. This article aims at presenting on one hand the impact of the use of Peer-to-Peer file sharing traffic on campus bandwidth by observation of BitTorrent traffic and on the other a method for limiting the illicit access to this kind of networks. For this purpose, we used a set of open source tools like wireshak sniffer software to capture Bitorrent traffic. Additionally, using the well-known Snort intrusion detection system with a number of adequate and new rules one can reduce bandwidth saturation problem. This solution allowed in our case, a bandwidth saturation reduction of 35%.

Según lo regulado por la Oficina Nacional de Normalización es necesario llevar a cabo el registro y control de la asistencia, estadía y puntualidad a nivel empresarial. Una de las formas es a través de métricas y reportes que ayuden a planificar, controlar y tomar buenas decisiones. El CITI cuenta con una herramienta que gestiona la seguridad del centro, pero el sistema está enfocado en los aspectos de autorización y control de trazas, excluyendo cualquier métrica que sirva de apoyo en la toma de decisiones. Se propone una solución de Inteligencia de Negocio que permita obtener conocimiento del comportamiento de la asistencia y estadía de sus empleadosa través del tiempo, por área, por plantilla o por dirección, guardando un histórico de las entradas y salidas del centro. En paralelo se desarrolla un módulo para la intranet del centro que permita generar reportes y métricas de forma dinámicaa partir de los datos obtenidos. El módulo está desarrollado en el CMS Orchard sobre el que se encuentra la intranet del centro, integrándolo como un nuevo servicio.Este brinda reportes y métricas sobre la asistencia y estadía del personal tanto a los jefes de sus trabajadores, como por empleado. Esta solución permite contar con información en cualquier instante de tiempo y con diferentes niveles de filtrado. Es posible realizar análisis estadísticos del comportamiento y evolución en el tiempo de las diferentes áreas, plantillas o por empleados y analizar el cumplimiento o no de la asistencia.

En el Complejo de investigaciones tecnológicas integradas (CITI) existiendo sistemas de telefonía procesando las comunicaciones. Uno es una planta analógica con 52 terminales contratada con la empresa ETECSA y el otro es un servidor de telefonía digital desarrollado sobre en el marco de trabajo Asterisk. Este servidor no permite la gestión de sus usuarios por lo que se encuentran definidos de forma estática sin poder crear nuevos, modificarlos o eliminarlos. Se propone un módulo integrado a la intranet del centro capaz de gestionar los usuarios del sistema de comunicaciones, así como brindar la salida de reportes acerca del estado de consumo de la telefonía IP del centro por cada usuario. También es de interés por parte del centro poder aplicar cuotas de tiempo a los usuarios con el fin de reducir costos con respecto a la telefonía. El módulo está desarrollado para el CMS Orchard, sobre el cual se encuentra desarrollada la intranet del centro lo que permitirá integrar el módulo como un servicio más de la intranet. A través del módulo es posible asociar usuarios del directorio activo del CITI a las distintas extensiones o usuarios del sistema, ello permite que cada usuario pueda entrar a la intranet y apreciar las estadísticas de su consumo telefónico y así poder planificarse su tiempo de llamada y contribuir al ahorro del presupuesto de la empresa.

The Borough of Manhattan Community College Library is using Microsoft SharePoint as an all-encompassing intranet to streamline library operations, maintain quality, and enhance decision-making by organizing, sharing, and managing information. Digitization of collection data was deemed necessary to increase data speed and accuracy, and improve harmony between library departments. The new collection management plan is a good fit because it uses SharePoint's workflow capacity to insure an easy transition from paper-based methods and prevents fear of disruption and non-compliance.

This work presents the analysis and modeling of communication network used for data transmission with multi-protocols in campus network. The designed network is based on the geographical location of communication nodes. (Colleges and centers). Network optimal backbone is first designed by Kruskal algorithm. It will be subject to reliability improvement by links addition. Tie-sets method is used to evaluate the network reliability. Communication nodes are modeled using local area network (LAN), server, links, router, switch, and Firewall. Intranet will be used as communication backbone mainly to connect different communication nodes with the Principal Communication Center (PCC) where the System Server (SS) is located. The connection of Intranet to the Internet is mad via the front-end system server (SS). Tikrit University Intranet (TUI) is taking as case study in the present research. Tikrit University sites are grouped into master communication nodes. Each node is composed from several colleges, centers, and administrative sections.

Organizations create competitive advantage by creating more economic value than their rivals. Increasing business competition and information technology development have both led to huge corporate organizational changes and have raised the importance of intangible assets along the value chain. Value creation and the success of organizations increasingly depends on the leverage of knowledge available internally, as nowadays it has become essential to understand employee portals’ business value and to build adequate change management programmes. The Balanced Scorecard (BSC) and Strategy Map (SM) show an organization’s objectives, how they are achieved, and the link between the goals of the various sub-units and how these act together to produce the overall results. BSC and SM clarify how intangible assets are aligned with strategy, to create value for the organization. However, the concerns related to change management seem not to have been properly addressed. To conveniently deal with these matters, the authors propose a framework to map the cause-effect relationships that generates business value, as well as provides top management and decision makers with the information needed for a suitable top-down commitment and sponsorship, which is essential to bring about the appropriate change management and benefits’ realization. SM and Benefits Dependency Network (BDN) were combined, resulting in a suitable framework to help organizations enhance their knowledge, mitigating the risk of investment failure or misuse, and a timely contribution to capture more value from investments in intangible assets. The developed framework helps organizations address their concerns related to value creation and change management, and it has been applied to this Employee Portal case study. This case study allows us to conclude that, although the promotion of organizational culture and corporate alignment are not usually frequent goals of organizations, and do not motivate investments in the development of employee portals, they are generally recognised as being essential tools for decision-making and value creation.
