The paper addresses socio technical relations of implementing a lightweight IT app in Norway. The focus is on how such technology will influence the possibilities for an organization connected to a large-scale heavyweight IT infrastructure to provide more rapid changes in line with healthcare worker's needs. The research question is therefore: How can lightweight IT support rapid organizational changes? The empirical site is one of the first health trusts in Norway implementing lightweight technology integrated to their Electronic Health Record (EHR). The lightweight technology is a nursing app for registering early- warning score (NEWS) bedside the patients. The paper is based on a qualitative interpretive approach, and the results are discussed in line with information infrastructure theory.

Continuous monitoring of nocturnal blood pressure is crucial for hypertension management and cardiovascular risk assessment. However, current clinical methods are invasive and discomforting, posing challenges. These traditional techniques often disrupt sleep, impacting patient compliance and measurement accuracy.

As the importance of hygiene and safety management in food manufacturing has been increasingly emphasized, research on non-destructive and non-contact inspection technologies has become more active. This study proposes a real-time and non-destructive food inspection system with sub-terahertz waves which penetrates non-conducting materials by using a frequency of 0.1 THz.

This paper introduces a novel TRNG architecture that employs a wave converter to generate random outputs from the jitter noise in a customized ring oscillator (RO). Using a current-starved inverter, the proposed RO offers the option of operating three different oscillation frequencies from a single oscillator. To assess its performance, the core TRNG proposed in this work was designed with multiple samples, employing various transistor sizes for 28 nm CMOS processes.

Various studies have shown that it is necessary to estimate the drivers' vigilance to reduce the occurrence of traffic accidents. Most existing EEG-based vigilance estimation studies have been performed on intra-subject and multi-channel signals, and these methods are too costly and complicated to implement in practice. Hence, aiming at the problem of cross-subject vigilance estimation of single-channel EEG signals, an estimation algorithm based on capsule network (CapsNet) is proposed.

Metasurfaces, consisting of arrays of subwavelength structures, are lightweight and compact while being capable of implementing the functions of traditional bulky optical components. Furthermore, they have the potential to significantly improve complex optical systems in terms of space and cost, as they can simultaneously implement multiple functions. The wafer-scale mass production method based on the CMOS (complementary metal oxide semiconductor) process plays a crucial role in the modern semiconductor industry.
