In order to address challenges in the sustainable development of transportation, economy, and environment, governments along with conventional automobile manufacturers and consumers are extremely interested in the development of the electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing industry and market. However, many manufacturers are worried about entering the EV market because of some of the limitations of EVs and government economic policies. A framework for failure risk-based ranking of EV projects is proposed that applies the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) as a method of ranking. The hierarchy structure of the AHP is created with the risk categories, risk factors, and EV project candidates at different levels of the decision. By specifying the failure risk categories and failure risk factors, the ranking of EV project failure risks and the EV projects are accomplished via the pairwise comparison in the AHP. The results from the ranking provide useful information for planning and decision making. In fact, the results of the proposed method make it possible to specify the EV projects that are feasible to carry out and to compare the various projects at the technical and economic level.

The acquisition of full membership for the Republic of Serbia in the European Union depends on a large number of factors. The combined and synergistic effect of these factors has made the process of Serbia's accession to the European Union extremely uncertain in terms of date and final outcome. The new reality, including the COVID-19 pandemic, U.S. isolationist policies during President Trump's tenure, the strengthening of China and Russia, and Britain's exit from the EU, has made this process even more uncertain. In this context, it is crucial to identify and prioritize key factors that affect or could affect the process of Serbia's accession to the European Union, in order to evaluate the possible outcomes of this process. To solve problems of this level of complexity and uncertainty, it is necessary to apply an interdisciplinary approach of the appropriate level of complexity. Therefore, this paper is an extension of previous research (Krstic et al, 2018; Mimovic et al, 2019) based on the defined research goal, but incorporates a complex, network model called theAnalytical Network Process, which included new circumstances that determine what is colloquially called the new reality. All calculations in the paper were performed using the software package SuperDecisions as computer support for the Analytical Network Process.
塞尔维亚共和国能否成为欧洲联盟的正式成员取决于许多因素。这些因素的综合和协同作用使塞尔维亚加入欧洲联盟的进程在日期和最终结果方面极不确定。新冠肺炎疫情、特朗普总统任期内美国的孤立主义政策、中国和俄罗斯的实力增强、英国脱欧等新的现实，使这一进程更加不确定。在这方面，至关重要的是确定影响或可能影响塞尔维亚加入欧洲联盟进程的关键因素并确定其优先次序，以便评估这一进程可能产生的结果。为了解决这种复杂性和不确定性水平的问题，有必要应用适当复杂性水平的跨学科方法。因此，本文是对前人研究的延伸(Krstic et al .， 2018;Mimovic等人，2019)基于定义的研究目标，但结合了一个复杂的网络模型，称为分析网络过程，其中包括决定俗称新现实的新情况。本文中的所有计算都是使用软件包SuperDecisions作为分析网络过程的计算机支持来完成的。

This article aims to provide a dynamic picture of the technology transfer process in public research institutions in Indonesia that has been updated by establishing the National Research and Innovation Agency in August 2021. This body is directly under the President of the Republic of Indonesia based on Presidential Regulation number 78 of 2021. During the research period, there was a change in the landscape of technology transfer actors. Some of these changes are in line with the results of the analysis, namely increasing the role of GFRI and research and development agencies under the ministry. This change is referred to as technology transfer reassembly. The arrangement of technology transfer leads to a new form. The research was initiated in October 2017 using the AHP to determine the best institutional arrangement for integrating research. The AHP results show the rank of institutional arrangements from highest to lowest as Government Funded Research Institutes (GFRI) (0.27833), a research division under the Ministerial Office (0.24890), universities (0.17966), private R&D (0.13589) and foreign agencies (0.07214). Government Funded Research Institutes are the top choice of experts for having a significant role in the technology transfer process. The core function of GFRI in the technology transfer system is to plan, conduct and develop technology and they have contributed significantly to the policy-making process by providing information and policy recommendations. This research enriched the application of the recommendations by establishing the National Research and Innovation Agency as the most influential actor in building a national technology transfer system.

Several studies suggest that a major factor causing acute low back pain in nursing staff is the manual handling of disabled patients. In India, especially the northern part that consists of non-metropolitan cities, most of the hospitals still lack advanced patient handling methods and techniques. Therefore, it is necessary to devise a method of assessment for testing the effectiveness of an ergonomic intervention or training for safe patient handling. A proper quantification of risk involved in manual handling is required so that the severity of injuries caused by this handling can be reduced by an ergonomic intervention, which in turn helps redesign the task of manual handling. This study aimed to develop a qualitative method of risk assessment using the AHP for manual patient handling and to evaluate the validity and reliability of the risk assessment. The method is validated using the concepts of construct validity and content validity. The reliability was estimated through stability (test-retest) and homogeneity (internal consistency). The tests for validity and reliability were conducted in 130 units of 7 small-sized hospitals. The results of the current study reveal that the method was reliable and valid for risk assessment of patient handling.

Industry 4.0 (I4.0) marks a new era in manufacturing and has attracted notable attention from practitioners and researchers. Current production processes are being transformed towards interconnecting the elements of manufacturing systems as a result of digitization. Adopting new technologies is an indispensable practice to compete and sustain business concerns. In this paper, the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), a multi-criteria decision-making methodology, is employed to evaluate and weigh the nine pillars that are the building blocks of an I4.0 system. The assessment model suggests three dimensions, nine pillars, and thirty-four sub-pillars which are evaluated by fourteen I4.0 professionals responding to a pairwise questionnaire. The results are important as they reflect the opinions of the professionals and can help define strategies for companies investing in I4.0 technologies by elucidating the relative impacts of factors in an I4.0 environment.
