Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a tool used for the electrical analysis of the status of human heart activity. When the ECG signal is recorded, it gets contaminated with different types of noises. So, for accurate analysis, noises must be eliminated from the ECG signal. There are different types of noises that contaminate the characteristics of ECG signal i.e Power line interference, baseline wander, Electromyogram (EMG). In this paper, different techniques have implemented for the removal of noises. A median filter is used for removal of DC component and Savitzky-Golay filter (SG) is used for smoothing noised waveform and then wavelet transform (db4) is used to decompose the ECG signal for removal of various artifacts. Wavelet transform provides the information in frequency and time domain and then thresholding has been applied for the implementation of algorithms in MATLAB. The measured results i.e. SNR(Signal to Noise ratio) and MSE(Mean square error) have been calculated using different databases like MIT-BIH, Long-term ST database, European ST-T database. The results are examined with proposed methods that are better than those reported in the literature.

The introduction of cloud computing techniques revolutionized the current of information processing and storing. Cloud computing as a competitive edge provides easy and automated access to the vast ocean of resources through standard network mechanisms to businesses and organizations. Due to the vast diversity of service providers and their respective variety of available services with different qualities, top managements often face difficulty for choosing the best available option. So, considering the growing significance of the mentioned issue, this study aims to identify and rank contributing factors in selection of cloud service providers. In that attempt, this research approaches its goal by going through three major phases. Firstly, in phase one, prior studies are reviewed for extracting related elements of selection. Secondly, by employing Fuzzy Delphi method and obtaining results by interviewing experts in this field such as IT managers and technicians, this study tries to finalize the list of contributing factors. Lastly, by utilizing Fuzzy best-worst multi-criteria decision-making method, which is one of the most recent techniques employed to statistically rank variables, this research introduces a list of vital factors for cloud service selection. Based on the findings of this study, there are five major categories involved in the selection process which are: performance, security, data management, personal data protection and environmental-organizational. The finalized result of ranking shows that, performance related factors such as accessibility, response time and capacity are the first priority. The runner-up is security with reliability and governance. Environmental-organizational variables lands in the third place by considering rental and network costs.

This study aims to identify the role of information and communication technology in improving electronic payment methods. The descriptive-analytical approach has been applied. We have learned about the concepts of ICT and electronic payment methods and the impact of ICT on these methods. On the applied side, an El Oued was distributed to a staff sample in the Directorate of the Algeria Poste unite of the State of El-Oued and several its postal institutions. The El Oued included two main axes: the first focuses on the reality of ICT in the organization. We discussed the electronic payment methods and the control procedures on their system on the second axis. Also, the challenges and risks which they face, the study revealed a statistically significant relationship between the variable of ICT and the means of electronic payment through the influence of some dimensions in the first axis on the dimensions of the second axis.

Heart and circulatory system diseases are often referred to as cardiovascular disease (CVD). The health and efficiency of the heart are crucial to human survival. CVD has become a primary cause of demise in recent years. According to data provided by the World-Health-Organization (WHO), CVD were conscientious for the deaths of 18.6M people in 2017. Biomedical care, healthcare, and disease prediction are just few of the fields making use of cutting-edge skills like machine learning (ML) and deep learning (DL). Utilizing the CVD dataset from the UCI Machine-Repository, this article aims to improve the accuracy of cardiac disease diagnosis. Improved precision and sensitivity in diagnosing heart disease by the use of an optimization algorithm is possible. Optimization is the process of evaluating a number of potential answers to a problem and selecting the best one. Support-Machine-Vector (SVM), K-Nearest-Neighbor (KNN), Naïve-Bayes (NB), Artificial-Neural-Network (ANN), Random-Forest (RF), and Gradient-Descent-Optimization (GDO) are just some of the ML strategies that have been utilized. Predicting Cardiovascular Disease with Intelligence, the best results may be obtained from the set of considered classification techniques, and this is where the GDO approach comes in. It has been evaluated and found to have an accuracy of 99.62 percent. The sensitivity and specificity were likewise measured at 99.65% and 98.54%, respectively. According to the findings, the proposed unique optimized algorithm has the potential to serve as a useful healthcare examination system for the timely prediction of CVD and for the study of such conditions.

Globalization is one of the important elements of external environment of the enterprises, that is why it is defined to be the main object of this study. The main signs of globalization in international trade and the qualitative / quantitative changes caused are studied, in particular, attention is paid to the mutual exchange of resources to solve international problems, including environmental ones. The transformation of competitive / monopoly relations under the influence of globalization in the areas of levels of cooperation, the ratio of competition / rivalry, the dependence of competition on innovation, models of competitive behavior are analyzed. The impact of globalization on economic processes of influences redistribution in the markets between residents and nonresidents is investigated, the factors that cause changes in investment activity of nonresidents are identified, namely the direct relationship between changes in the index of economic globalization and the number of foreign enterprises in Ukraine. Based on the research, the identified exogenous factors are complemented by such factors as protection of intellectual property rights and prevention of abuse of intellectual property rights, and endogenous - as a relationship of decisive influence on businesses in specific markets, management awareness of the impact of their transactions on the market and others. It is concluded that globalization does not take into account the national characteristics of individual economies, the resource potential of development, but involves the use of existing benefits, respectively, those who want to become part of it must acquire certain exclusivity, disseminate relevant information, introduce innovation in enterprise management systems, show interest in cooperation with the relevant participant for the development of digitalization, social and economic transformations.

For the last three decades, research on Information Technology Business Value (ITBV) has highlighted how organizations can create greater value from IT investments in different industries, including the healthcare sector. There has been some research investigating the business value of Health Information Systems (HIS). However, the current body of knowledge regarding the challenges in front of proper business value realization of these systems is limited. This study investigates the challenges of HIS business value creation using a combination of the Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy Process (FAHP) and fuzzy Decision-making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory (DEMATEL). First, this study reviews the literature to identify the main challenges in the field. The outcome of this step revealed three main categories and 22 challenges, including technological (ten challenges), organizational (eight challenges), and environmental (four challenges). Then, this study first uses FAHP to evaluate the weighting for each criterion and then adopts the fuzzy DEMATEL method to establish contextual relationships among those criteria. We find out that technological challenges are the most crucial dimension. Moreover, we observed that “infrastructure costs” has the highest priority. Under the technological dimension, “maintenance costs” and “systems compatibility” challenges are the most critical since they are in the cause area and directly influence the HIS outcomes. Under the organizational dimension, “Change in strategic objectives” is the most important challenge. Moreover, “inter-departmental coordination”, “training costs”, “proficiency”, and “users’ knowledge” are affected by each other as well as influenced by the net causes. The outcome of this study shows that to handle HIS business value creation challenges, healthcare executives should start with infrastructure costs, maintenance costs, and systems compatibility challenges.
