Book Synopsis World Development Report 2016 by : World Bank Group
Download or read book World Development Report 2016 written by World Bank Group and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2016-01-14 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Digital technologies are spreading rapidly, but digital dividends--the broader benefits of faster growth, more jobs, and better services--are not. If more than 40 percent of adults in East Africa pay their utility bills using a mobile phone, why can’t others around the world do the same? If 8 million entrepreneurs in China--one third of them women--can use an e-commerce platform to export goods to 120 countries, why can’t entrepreneurs elsewhere achieve the same global reach? And if India can provide unique digital identification to 1 billion people in five years, and thereby reduce corruption by billions of dollars, why can’t other countries replicate its success? Indeed, what’s holding back countries from realizing the profound and transformational effects that digital technologies are supposed to deliver? Two main reasons. First, nearly 60 percent of the world’s population are still offline and can’t participate in the digital economy in any meaningful way. Second, and more important, the benefits of digital technologies can be offset by growing risks. Startups can disrupt incumbents, but not when vested interests and regulatory uncertainty obstruct competition and the entry of new firms. Employment opportunities may be greater, but not when the labor market is polarized. The internet can be a platform for universal empowerment, but not when it becomes a tool for state control and elite capture. The World Development Report 2016 shows that while the digital revolution has forged ahead, its 'analog complements'--the regulations that promote entry and competition, the skills that enable workers to access and then leverage the new economy, and the institutions that are accountable to citizens--have not kept pace. And when these analog complements to digital investments are absent, the development impact can be disappointing. What, then, should countries do? They should formulate digital development strategies that are much broader than current information and communication technology (ICT) strategies. They should create a policy and institutional environment for technology that fosters the greatest benefits. In short, they need to build a strong analog foundation to deliver digital dividends to everyone, everywhere.
Book Synopsis Parkinson's Disease Management through ICT by : Joan Cabestany
Download or read book Parkinson's Disease Management through ICT written by Joan Cabestany and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2022-09-01 with total page 166 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parkinson's Disease (PD) is a neurodegenerative disorder that manifests with motor and non-motor symptoms. PD treatment is symptomatic and tries to alleviate the associated symptoms through an adjustment of the medication. As the disease is evolving and this evolution is patient specific, it could be very difficult to properly manage the disease.The current available technology (electronics, communication, computing, etc.), correctly combined with wearables, can be of great use for obtaining and processing useful information for both clinicians and patients allowing them to become actively involved in their condition.Parkinson's Disease Management through ICT: The REMPARK Approach presents the work done, main results and conclusions of the REMPARK project (2011 – 2015) funded by the European Union under contract FP7-ICT-2011-7-287677. REMPARK system was proposed and developed as a real Personal Health Device for the Remote and Autonomous Management of Parkinson’s Disease, composed of different levels of interaction with the patient, clinician and carers, and integrating a set of interconnected sub-systems: sensor, auditory cueing, Smartphone and server. The sensor subsystem, using embedded algorithmics, is able to detect the motor symptoms associated with PD in real time. This information, sent through the Smartphone to the REMPARK server, is used for an efficient management of the disease.

This book was released on 1995 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Describes a step wise process of assessment, planning, and action that can be used to improve disability prevention and rehabilitation within the context of primary health care. Aware of the constraints often faced in district level services, the guide concentrates on measures that can be taken without the need for additional staff and without creating an excessive burden on time. Most activities described can be completed in the course of a one-day workshop. Throughout, numerous practical examples are used to illustrate how the process actually works in practice and the types of community problems it can address. The guide, which is intended for district health and rehabilitation managers, has six chapters. The first explains how to use a one-day workshop to launch a district initiative for disability prevention and rehabilitation. Chapter two, on information gathering, explains pertinent sources of readily available information, and offers advice on how to use questionnaires and interviews to gather additional information. A time frame of six months is suggested for this research phase. Chapter three explains how to involve the community in the identification of problems and the planning of action. The remaining chapters cover assessment and planning at the district health level, monitoring and supervision of the current system for disability prevention and rehabilitation, and collaboration with other sectors, such as education, social services and labor, which can contribute to disability prevention and rehabilitation.

Book Synopsis Disability, Society and Assistive Technology by : Bodil Ravneberg
Download or read book Disability, Society and Assistive Technology written by Bodil Ravneberg and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2017-03-27 with total page 114 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The provision of assistive technology is an important individual and collective service of the welfare state. The state plays a significant role towards linking users and products, and the matching of devices and users is both a science and an art. However, many people feel it is stigmatising to use individually designed assistive technologies as they often, in a subtle way, convey discriminating barriers in society. The major challenges of assistive technology are thus to reduce social exclusion and marginalisation and, importantly, to reduce individual risks and societal costs related to non-use due to deficiencies in usability, aesthetics and design of the technologies. This groundbreaking book discusses the relationships among society, disability and technology by using different empirical examples (e.g., school, everyday life) to show why the combination of disability studies and STS-studies (science, technology and society) is a fruitful approach to understanding and meeting these challenges. The book explores the significance of the technologies for users, society and the field; identifies challenges to designing, adopting and using assistive technologies; and points at theoretical challenges in research as well as professional challenges in assistive technology service provision. The book also scrutinises the role of assistive technology devices, as well as the organisational structure of the assistive technology market, in relation to disabled people’s lives. This book will be valuable reading for students, academics, teachers and social educators interested in Disability Studies, STS Studies, Product Design, Sociology, Occupational Therapy and Physiotherapy, as well as engineers working in the field of assistive technology.

Highly practical, and supported by abundant checklists, examples, and model timetables and forms, the manual can be used in training courses or for self-study by managers interested in improving their planning skills. The manual has five chapters. The first provides definitions of terms and concepts useful in understanding disability and rehabilitation, explains how a community-based rehabilitation program operates in conjunction with referral services, and gives a brief description of the management cycle. The next two chapters provide training modules. Chapter two, on assessing the current situation, presents three modules describing components of a situation analysis, followed by a suggested method for setting priorities based on the analysis. Information ranges from possible sources of data on numbers and types of disabilities, through a list of common disabilities and their preventable and non-preventable causes, to examples of factors to be considered when setting priorities. The six modules in chapter three begin with advice on setting objectives and targets. The remaining modules cover five other components of the planning process: selecting strategies, listing activities, identifying sources, estimating costs, and reviewing the plan. Chapter four describes six activities involved in implementing a program. The manual concludes with a chapter outlining the components of program evaluation and the information that should be gathered and analyzed.
