The article deals with new possibilities of electronic documentation eHealth (a global concept of electronic health care) and examines the use of information technologies in health care. It describes the issue of keeping medical records in electronic form and then analyzes the method of implementation of these technologies. The electronic form of this information will greatly simplify and make available the transfer of information. Currently, this form is required mainly from workers in the medical and biomedical ...

The article describes the LoRaWAN network. LoRaWAN is a communication protocol that provides long-distance communication with low power consumption. Long Range Wide Area Networks (LoRaWAN) is open-center access (MAC) layer technology designed for long-distance connections with a large number of low-energy devices. LoRaWAN devices in various network settings use the most modern network simulator (NS-3). First, one device and its mobility are introduced. Due to its properties, the protocol is very popular in the fie...

Today's society encounters cyber attacks on the energy sector not only on a theoretical level but unfortunately also in reality. The total number of cyberattacks is still rising, despite the ever-evolving defense against them. The article contains an overview of the largest cyberattacks in history on the energy sector and ways to carry them out. A cyber attack is a situation where a hacker or their group tries to gain access to key information or elements of the infrastructure. These can be power plants, their con...

When building new or upgrading existing control centers, ergonomists and designers strive to design solutions that improve operators' working conditions, including work comfort, and reduce their psychological burden stemming from the complexity of their activities and the high responsibilities they bear. However, meeting the needs of operators, while adapting to space constraints or specific technical requirements for the control system, is very difficult. Coping with this difficult task, therefore, requires a res...

The article deals with the issue of accidents associated with hazardous substances, their prevention. Modeling of these accidents was chosen as a form of prevention. The production of dangerous toxic substances is currently growing, especially in the industry. The response to this trend is to introduce safer technological processes and preventive measures. These measures serve to prevent or at least reduce the risk of accidents and thus the escape of dangerous substances. To implement prevention, effective measure...

The article deals with the development of geoinformatics procedures accelerating and simplifying the application of the scattering model SYMOS?97 (Gaussian model), for selected pollutants in the open air to an area with a large number of sources and reference points. They are compared here with real measured concentrations of these persistent organic pollutants. One of the chapters illustrates the spatial and temporal variability of the ratios of the contributions of individual resource sectors to the total air po...

The aim of this article is to create a risk analysis of selected school facilities which can be an auxiliary tool of security solutions against terrorism. Most terrorist attacks are focused on so-called soft targets - crowded places, which are not secure against violent attacks. Furthermore, attacks on school facilities abroad are frequent too. A wellprepared risk analysis is a necessary method to detect weaknesses and strengths of the security of a soft target. The university in Zlin in the Czech Republic was cho...
