Importance of knowledge management for CI/CD and Security in Autonomous Vehicles Systems

Pavle Dakić — Thu, 20 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0200

The development of autonomous vehicles (AV) entails complex design, production, testing, and deployment procedures that require excellent information and knowledge management in the event of security breaches. As researchers and managers, we must have a good understanding of the development of AV technology. Communication and information exchange, as well as knowledge management (KM) strategies and approaches, are undoubtedly important components. The most difficult challenge is to save the lives of drivers and passengers who use and travel in an AV that is partially or entirely managed by a machine learning model (ML) and artificial intelligence (AI). In this paper, we attempt to investigate the manufacturing process of AVs and intelligent vehicles (IVs), emphasizing the importance of information management (IM) within the factory and processes that are not explicitly articulated in the majority of scenarios. Furthermore, we discuss our method for using the knowledge management life cycle for information exchange in an organization, which could allow for faster and more efficient resolution of security issues within vehicle operating systems. This study seeks to provide an essential theoretical foundation to characterize the future scope of integrated manufacturing, which integrates software and the industry that employs it within the vehicle.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of data-driven business, marketing intelligence has become a cornerstone for organizational success. This entails the systematic collection, analysis, and interpretation of vast data sets, empowering businesses to make strategic marketing decisions. Employing techniques like data mining, machine learning, and sentiment analysis, marketing intelligence uncovers hidden patterns, identifies opportunities, and predicts challenges. A pivotal outcome is enhanced customer understanding through detailed profiles derived from sources like social media, website interactions, and purchase history. This depth of insight allows for the creation of personalized, precisely targeted campaigns, fostering stronger customer relationships and loyalty. Moreover, marketing intelligence facilitates data-driven decisions aligned with overarching business goals, optimizing resource allocation, budgeting, and strategic planning. Utilizing software solutions such as RapidMiner, organizations gain efficiency in data analysis, machine learning, and predictive analytics. Net Promoter Score (NPS) acts as a key metric, gauging customer sentiment and likelihood to recommend products or services. This paper focuses on evaluating customer satisfaction in the insurance sector, aiming to propose enhancements for service quality based on existing research results. Through a comprehensive examination of customer satisfaction levels, the study seeks to provide actionable insights for continual improvement.

Digital Identification from Smart Card to Digital Wallet –Eu Legal Framework and Situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina

Siniša Macan — Thu, 20 Jun 2024 00:00:00 +0200

Information technologies and the entirely new digital world are experiencing significant development in the second and third decades of the twenty-first century. This development has led to the need to realize the concept of legal regulation of cyberspace, especially in the segment of digital identification. Digital identification is necessary to ensure security as well as the protection of personal data. Additionally, digital identification must guarantee the reliability and trust of signatories in the technologies used. The regulations adopted in previous years implied the existence of a PKI infrastructure and the storage of the private key by the signatory. However, the development of technologies and the widespread use of mobile and smart devices have generated the need for remote signing, cloud-based signing, and the creation of digital wallet techniques. It is precisely in this segment that the regulations have been amended. The paper presents EU regulations in this area and the situation in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It is particularly emphasized that the use of reliable legally grounded digital identification has not yet begun to be implemented in Bosnia and Herzegovina, and that it is necessary to establish practices and systems based on legal regulations that are aligned with the EU, as well as with the legal framework in Bosnia and Herzegovina.
