Knowledge management for the provision of health information services is an under-developed field of research and therefore needs to be informed by applied research. The current study was conducted with healthcare professionals and the general public in Australia to capture and distill their views regarding the development of a web-based information service. Given the complex and dynamic context of the healthcare sector, there is still a challenge in understanding the process of knowledge management in the healthcare environment. This research explores the use of Q methodology as an integrated and practical approach to the acquisition, sharing, and creation of knowledge in an organizational health context. The aim is to scope the relevant issues to the problem at hand, which is to maintain and innovate better web-based healthcare information systems, from a wide selection of stakeholders (qualitative). The second step of the process is to sort, group, rate, and prioritize these issues (quantitative) to give healthcare information system designers relevant information in order of importance. The use of Q methodology is somewhat established in several social research communities, including psychology, political science, and health research. The current manual method of concourse can be difficult in demanding environments, such as healthcare services. Thirty-seven healthcare participants successfully sorted 50 different statements about their views on web-based health information systems. The data analysis shows that a 4-factor solution is capable of explaining this unique phenomenon. The overall conclusion of this particular study relies on its unique contribution to the existing literature in the field of knowledge management and Q methodology.

Technological advances, availability of similar goods, and easier access to knowledge in the marketplace make the issues of innovation more important than ever before. Firms need innovation to survive in the competitive market and enhance their competitiveness. They require various sources and knowledge to perform innovation activities. One way to reach these sources is through knowledge transfer and sharing. Knowledge transfer can be achieved in various ways, for example, through networks. This paper aims to reveal the relationship between knowledge transfer and networks with technology and innovation in the hotel sector in Antalya Province. The results of the analysis support that there is a significant relationship between technology and innovation with knowledge transfer and networks.

As in other sectors, tourism is an industry where competition is intense. Therefore, the countries, gaining the majority of their national income from tourism, develop tourism strategies and policies in order to achieve competitive advantage against their competitors and to sustain these advantages. Thus, the primary aim of this study is showing Turkey’s growth in terms of tourism and the markets that Turkey has more shares by using the shift share approach, developed by Esteban-Marquillas in order to measure the regional development. The evaluation is carried out in comparison with six countries (France, Germany, Italy, Malaysia, England and the United States) which are in top ten in terms of visitor numbers. With the results of the analysis, it is determined that in what areas Turkey and other studied countries have become specialized and in which markets they have become competitive.

This study evaluates the availability and adequacy of basic laboratory equipment necessary for teaching biology in selected government secondary schools in North Nazimabad Town, Karachi. The research focused on four key dimensions of laboratory equipment: microscopes; slides, test tubes, and petri dishes; forceps, probes, and scalpels; and beakers, flasks, and Bunsen burners. A sample of eight secondary schools and fifty biology teachers were selected for data collection using a structured questionnaire. The findings indicated that while five schools possessed the essential laboratory equipment, three schools were found lacking. The study employed simple percentage statistics for data analysis, revealing significant disparities in equipment availability. The results underscore the need for improved resource allocation and recommendations are provided to enhance the educational infrastructure for biology teaching in the region.

This study introduces a novel Q-slot antenna design that utilizes a step impedance microstrip line with an open-ended mouth to achieve multi-band capabilities tailored for WiMAX communications. The antenna is engineered to operate across four bandwidth frequency groups that align with the standards of DO, 1xRTT-3G, WiMAX-IEEE802.11e, and WiMAX-IEEE802.16m. Detailed analysis of surface current distribution at resonant frequencies has been conducted, highlighting the impact of parameter dimension variations on performance enhancement. Additionally, the radiation patterns in the E-plane and H-plane are examined and benchmarked against theoretical slot antenna equations, providing insights into the antenna's efficiency and applicability in modern communication systems.
