The technological advances experienced by some countries can revolutionary change the productivity and competitiveness of a wide range of economic sectors due to the opening of possibilities of new ways of doing things better; however, the state of advancement of technology in the respective sectors and countries must first be determined. The aim of the study was to identify the technological gaps in the different productive links of the banana production chain in Colombia, in comparison with different leading countries in the world, to establish the best practices in each of these links. The study was quantitative in nature and the Hierarchical Analytical Process - AHP was used as a multi-criteria tool for information processing and analysis. The study population corresponded to the countries with a banana production chain, and the sample corresponded to the 13 countries with the highest volume of production. Among the multiple existing comparison criteria, the following were selected for analysis: basic research, production volume, exported value, exported quantity and unit value of exports. As a result, it was obtained that Nigeria presents the greatest advances and conditions in the productive chain analyzed according to the established criteria. Likewise, a methodology was established that can be extrapolated to be used in the evaluation of national and international agricultural production chains within the framework of technological gaps.

Solving engineering design tasks requires the use of analytical formulas and dependencies. The direct inclusion of mathematical expressions in the artificial neural network (ANN) is not possible. This research studies the possibility of applying the neural networks method for designing of single or double-side reinforced concrete sections. A Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) macro was developed in the MS Excel environment to solve the task of determining the required area of the reinforcement by given geometric dimensions and bending moment and applying classical analytical formulas for reinforced concrete sections design. The training of the pre-configured neural network is performed by approximately 34000 sets of matching input parameters. The presented results from the trained ANN are compared and analysed against the exact analytical solutions. The study presents an approach to the application of structural design calculations. The results suggest that the approach is applicable to more complicated structural design problems.

The study deals with the identification of problematic areas within the management of general education high schools in the Slovak Republic and analyses the dependence between the most problematic areas of school management with regard to the length of management practice and the types of managerial training. The questionnaire method was used as part of the research investigation. The research sample consisted of leading pedagogical staff (106 respondents) working at state grammar schools in Slovakia.The analysis of the results has showed that for employees in management positions the area of legal management of the school is primarily problematic. The second most problematic area is economic management.The authors expect that the results of the research will not only contribute to raising awareness of the areas of school management but will also provide additional information about director’s competencies and further encourage the responsible authorities to consider other options for methodical support.

In order to forecast certain microclimatic parameters in a room, such as relative humidity, it is necessary to collect a large amount of data. For this reason, an electronic system for providing comfortable conditions in a room has been developed, which is based on the becoming largely popular Internet of Things (IoT) technology. On the basis of the obtained data, the future change of the relative humidity in a room can be forecasted, which aims to ensure the health and well-being of its inhabitants. It should be noted that working with large datasets requires more sophisticated methods for prediction, and for this reason, this paper presents results obtained from a modified ordinary differential equation approach for forecasting relative humidity. For the purposes of the study, a program code was developed in Matlab. The resulting predicted relative humidity values are comparable to actual measured values, which would help to improve indoor air quality and provide thermal comfort to occupants.

Since 1989, various initiatives aimed at supporting humanity, linguistic, information, technical or polytechnical education in basic schools in Slovakia (i.e. at primary and lower secondary schools according to ISCED) were announced and implemented. At the end of 2020 the Ministry of Education, Science, Research and Sport of the Slovak Republic announced its intention to carry out a curricular reform on the level of ISCED 1 and ISCED 2. The article presents starting points and conceptions of both the previous as well as the announced curricular reforms, and subsequently the authors focus on the impact of these reforms on the content of the subject of technology, in frame of which technical education of students at lower level of secondary education is carried out. From the authors' point of view, the curricular reform of the subject of technology should increase students' interest in technically oriented fields of study. In this context, they present results of a research study, the purpose of which was to determine how students evaluate the current content (before the announced reform) of the technology subject.

The purpose of the research paper is to assess the approaches to appraisal of employee work performance in enterprises. The empirical research in the questionnaire survey focused on the factors influencing employee work performance. The research was conducted in the second half-year 2022 on the sample of 260 respondents from enterprises operating in Slovakia. Two hypotheses were established and a research model was created. Methods used in the paper include: analysis, questionnaire survey, and synthesis. To evaluate the questionnaire survey and verify hypotheses, contingency tables, descriptive statistics methods, correlation, and regression were applied. Although the results of statistical verification of hypotheses did not prove the existence of statistically significant relationship, in one case there were 8 out of 18 relationships; thus there is some relationship. Results indicate which factors are important in companies in achieving employee work performance.The statistical verification of hypotheses by correlation and the regression model proved the influence of the business sector on employee work performance appraisal (eight significant relationships). Further research is necessary for the generalisation in this area.The importance of the company’s most important asset, i.e. human capital is corroborated by means of statistical methods used in the paper. Moreover, the importance of structural capital is emphasized. The originality of the paper is in a creative application of statistical methods as well as in establishing five features characteristic of the approach to work performance in Slovakia’s enterprises.

There is a lack of extensive research on the development of smart universities (SU). The aim of this paper is to investigate the impact of knowledge management (KM) on the development of SU (DSU) in Iraq. According to the knowledge-based view (KBV), resource-based view (RBV), and KM capability model, this study suggests that the KM process (KMP) and KM infrastructure (KMI) have a positive impact on SUs development. Furthermore, the study suggests that KMI functions as a mediator. The study was conducted using a sample of five public universities in Iraq. A purposive sampling method was utilised to collect data from a total of 209 academic staff members. The study's results demonstrate that KMP (knowledge acquisition, knowledge sharing, and knowledge application) and KMI (IT infrastructure and human KM) have a significant impact on the DSU. Additionally, it was discovered that KMI plays a role in mediating the influence of KMP on the DSU. The findings indicate that successful KM can support the progress of SU. Further cross-national and variable-based studies are required to enhance the validity of this conclusion.
