Texas Human Trafficking Prevention Task Force Report
Human trafficking is the fastest growing crime impacting every continent and economic structure in the world. Affecting every ethnicity, gender, and age, regardless of immigration, socioeconomic, or family status, human trafficking knows no boundaries. Since 2008, when Texas issued its first report on human trafficking in the state, there are five times the number of trafficking arrests and four times the number of human trafficking convictions. Compared to the growing number of human trafficking victims that are estimated to be in Texas every day, these numbers illustrate the magnitude of the crime and the need to strengthen our statewide efforts. The 2020 legislative report highlights the various collaborative efforts of the task force.

Mitigating Usability Issues in Legacy EHR Systems to Improve Patient Safety: A Learning Health System Approach
This paper describes an on-going research project examining currently used processes in both hospitals and EHR vendor companies for identifying, prioritizing, and mitigating electronic health record (EHR) software issues, and usability issues, that may compromise patient safety as they arise in the implemented or legacy EHR system. This on-going project includes 3 interviews with CMIOs at hospitals and 3 interviews with EHR vendors. Next steps include surveying both groups. The project can be considered as part of a learning health system (LHS) approach in that it seeks to identify best practices in terms of the process for addressing these EHR issues. The LHS approach seeks to improve long term outcomes in health care by identifying optimal delivery processes and to do so in a systematic, rather than a haphazard way. (Friedman & Rigby, 2013).

The Impact of Social Isolation Arising from COVID-19 Pandemic on the Use of Customer Service Channels
The new coronavirus COVID-19 pandemic forced the population to adapt routines, create new habits and adapt to the new reality. A significant change resulting from social isolation was the way that consumers began to seek the provision of services and purchase of products. What was previously done predominantly in physical stores, started to be carried out by digital channels, according to the customers' preference. Because it provides essential services, Companhia Águas de Joinville (CAJ) also needed to adapt, creating conditions for digital service for 100% of customer demands. However, the simple availability does not mean immediate adhesion by the population, as customers have their preferences. This article intends to demonstrate how the migration of face-to-face service to other channels in Basic Sanitation behaved in Joinville and what the consumer preferred during the quarantine.

Role of Social Media in Spreading Fake News During COVID-19 Pandemic: A Survey among University Students of Bangladesh
Arising in China in December 2019, the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) soon spread to other countries worldwide including Bangladesh. Mass media and social media platforms played an important role in providing Coronavirus related information and news as they enable people to share news as well as personal experiences with one another rapidly. Since little is known about COVID-19, various fake news spread across social media that panicked people into making panic decisions. The primary objective of this study is to examine how social media is spreading fake or unauthentic news during the time of COVID-19 pandemic. This study also focuses on how the university students of Bangladesh are playing their roles in the spread of fake news in social media.

Artificial Intelligence and Knowledge Management in South African Automotive Industries
Automotive industries in the developed world have strived to improve performance and productivity by incorporating Knowledge Management (KM) practices in their manufacturing processes. This has been attributed to the use of upgraded technological capabilities in the acquisition, sharing, and retention of organizational knowledge. Literature has unpacked that as much as automotive industries need Information Communication Technologies (ICTs) in their KM strategy, they should also include aspects of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to facilitate and share knowledge (Wisskirchen et al., 2017; Calitz, Poisat & Cullen, 2017; Cronin, Conway & Walsh, 2019). More so, they recognised the limitations of ICTs concerning the management of tacit knowledge, which is intangible and difficult to share, as it plays a crucial role in the KM process. Despite the interest of many authors towards KM in automotive industries, there is a lack of studies aimed at investigating AI as a KM enabler in the South African automotive industry. This is a relevant issue as knowledge in the automotive industries tends to manifest itself tacitly. This realization has spawned a growing interest in incorporating advanced technologies like artificial intelligence into KM practices to overcome knowledge loss and bringing in innovation in automotive industries. It is against this backdrop; …

Using Query Expansion to Improve Findability of Resources Addressing Multiple Chronic Conditions
With advances in natural language processing (NLP), machine learning (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI), there are new opportunities for improving findability among existing public-facing resources. This project seeks to inform findability, especially for multiple chronic condition (MCC) resources, by describing current search capabilities and limitations across several of AHRQ’s publicly available domains and by identifying and piloting a novel NLP/ML approach to make suggested improvements. This work intentionally engages with the overlap of numerous disciplines including information extraction, information retrieval, data and text mining, knowledge management, and best practices in health care. We are looking to apply this work across all domains but will start by focusing on specific AHRQ domains. Given limited API access, we scraped the content of digital.ahrq.gov and the patient centered medical home (PCMH) resources and performed automated search using a set of related terms that align with an MCC scenario: hypertension, osteoarthritis, and chronic kidney disease. We obtained results confirming the limitations of existing search.

Blended Learning During Pandemic Through Knowledge Management an Analytical Study
Blended learning (BL) assimilates the best digital high-tech learning and traditional methods that involve students in network learning transcending physical boundaries. It has been embraced as a possibility so that knowledge can be distributed through time and space. KM-based approaches may be used to collect, coordinate, and transmit intelligence to control processes that can be utilized efficiently to recognize and share the most important details to address customer needs. This study aims to explain how to apply KM techniques in the BL environment to increase educational excellence and quality during pandemic situations. The specific consequences of BL actions are also stated in this paper. The quantitative approach was used in this study by using an electronic questionnaire from the students of the department of ISLM of the University of Dhaka, Bangladesh. Among the 272 students in the undergraduate program, 74 students replied to the online survey questionnaire. The gathered data were analyzed using SPSS version 20. The Findings of the study showed that KM can be used with BL during the COVID-19 pandemic, including integrated tasks, classroom instruction, online and e-learning. Finally, the study also proposed an intuitive model for applying BL through KM.

Innovation Process Based on Customer Development in a Large Mature Company
The Customer Development process, widely used by startups, is designed with the aim that, at the end of a process of development of an innovation, the customer can see the maximum value in the product. But there are few studies on the application of this methodology in mature companies. The aim of this study was to assess whether it is indeed possible to apply the Customer Development process in a mature firm. This case study was built from a semi-structured interview with the Innovation manager and a UX Designer at that institution. It was possible to verify from the analysis of the interview that the company is able to apply only part of the Customer Development process in its new product innovation process. This paper is a case study and applied research, so it is not possible to make generalizations. In addition, this article considered interviews with only two individuals from the company, which may have limited results.
