Decision-making strategies for organizational processes

Wed, 02 Oct 2024 00:00:00 -0400

This research aims to explore decision-making strategies in organizational processes and their relevance in today's business environment, using a comprehensive methodology based on a review of the scientific literature. Different approaches and methodologies used for decision making are presented, such as data-driven decision making, multi-criteria decision making, collaborative decision making and decision making based on artificial intelligence and machine learning. In addition, recent applications of these strategies in various organizational contexts, such as manufacturing, logistics and supply chain, project management, and product innovation and development, are discussed.

Analysis of judgment 67-23-in/24: active euthanasia in Ecuador in relation to comparative law

Jhuliana Alfoncina Pachar Carrión, Luis Mauricio Maldonado Ruiz — Wed, 02 Oct 2024 00:00:00 -0400

This article seeks to analyze the sentence 67-23-IN/24 issued on February 5, 2024 by the Constitutional Court of Ecuador, which resolves the conditional constitutionality of Article 144 of the Organic Integral Penal Code, which typifies the crime of simple homicide, process driven by Paola Roldán Espinosa, due to her advanced amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), a degenerative disease without cure, Therefore, she requested to the highest body of justice and constitutional interpretation the right to a dignified death through an Action of Unconstitutionality, thus, the public action of unconstitutionality will be defined, what euthanasia consists of will be analyzed, as well as the dimensions that integrate the right to life and the free development of the personality will be studied; The requirements for access to a euthanasia procedure in Colombian and Ecuadorian legislation will be analyzed, in order to determine that the decriminalization of euthanasia in people suffering intense suffering guarantees a dignified life.

Evolution of air quality as a function of vehicle demand in the Metropolitan District of Quito

Wed, 02 Oct 2024 00:00:00 -0400

Currently, the negative effects of air pollution on public health and the environment is a challenge of interest to the international community, which has focused much of its efforts and resources on policies, agreements and programs aimed at improving air quality. In this context, the present study determines a correlation between vehicle demand and air pollution levels in the Metropolitan District of Quito DMQ. The development of this study implements a quantitative research methodology that includes the collection and analysis of data relevant to the objectives. Despite being on the agenda of the DMQ government for the last 25 years, with CORPAIRE and the Metropolitan Corporation for the Integral Management of Solid Waste and Environmental Protection of Quito as its governing, monitoring and control bodies, the deficient mitigation of air pollution continues to threaten public health, local ecosystems and biodiversity.

Content Analysis in the Publications of the digital media CDL Noticias: An Exploratory Study

Belén Carolina Anchatuña Mullo, Alexander Darío Lascano Cevallos — Wed, 02 Oct 2024 00:00:00 -0400

This article is an exploratory study that aims to analyze the content of local and national news published in the digital media "CDL Noticias" during the month of November 2023. In this writing, a qualitative methodology was applied, which was developed through a content analysis, seeking to understand the informative panorama of the medium and to evaluate the importance that CDL assigns to each type of content by means of an observation sheet. The results highlighted in this research made it possible to identify the predominant topics, the approaches used and the frequency with which different types of news are addressed.

Elasticity and plasticity of PLA, PETG, ABS polymers for printing automotive parts

Wed, 02 Oct 2024 00:00:00 -0400

The objective of this paper is to explore the elasticity and plasticity properties of PLA, PETG and ABS polymers in the context of 3D printing of automotive parts. The present research is qualitative, descriptive, focusing on the theoretical analysis of the mechanical properties of PLA, PETG and ABS polymers, which is based on the collection of information from different authors. An analysis of the properties of these polymers is very significant for their application in the automotive industry, allowing a correct selection of materials. The research found very important data, highlighting that PLA, with its high stiffness and low plasticity, is ideal for prototypes and low-stress parts, while PETG offers a balance between flexibility and strength, suitable for functional components that require durability. ABS, known for its high impact strength and ductility, is recommended for applications that demand shock absorption and durability under demanding conditions. Selecting the right material is crucial to optimize the performance and longevity of 3D printed automotive parts, contributing to the advancement of additive manufacturing technology in the industry.
