56. ESSENCE OF BUSINESS GAMES

A business game is a group exercise in developing a sequence of decisions in artificially created conditions that simulate a real production environment.

The experience gained by participating in the game, in some cases, is more valuable than the already existing professional skills.

Business games provide an opportunity to analyze the existing conditions more widely, to realistically present the consequences of the decisions being made, and create the possibility of making an alternative decision. In a business game, a person has incomplete but reliable information, this increases confidence in the results and initiates a general direction of accepting responsibility. Considering the benefits, determine the success of using this method in the learning process.

The main feature of the main number of games will be the presence of role-playing interaction. Roles create the structure of the group, i.e., a certain position and function in the group is assigned to any participant in the game. The role is understood as a system of functions and stereotypes of behavior. The participants in the game develop a certain system of expectations from the carrier of specific information, these expectations must converge among all participating players, for this, the instructions for the player must describe in detail the norms of behavior. All this forms interaction within the group, regulates relationships and reduces the possibility of conflicts.

The business game, together with other teaching methods, contributes to the accumulation of managerial experience close to real, and essentially replaces laboratory experience, and with the help of business games this can be done much better than with other methods of cognition. The game, firstly, quite realistically creates the existing reality; secondly, it creates dynamic organizational models; thirdly, more intensively encourages the solution of the set goals.

The game development methodology includes 4 stages:

1) problematization;

2) optimization (or goal setting);

3) determination of the range of resources required for the implementation of a given product model by the game participants;

4) linking the results of the game with post-game modeling, since here the mechanisms for implementing the results of the game in the enterprise are developed in detail. After the game is over, it is discussed, following which the participants draw conclusions and make decisions.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Energy from space for Starship 08.05.2024

Producing solar energy in space is becoming more feasible with the advent of new technologies and the development of space programs. The head of the startup Virtus Solis shared his vision of using SpaceX's Starship to create orbital power plants capable of powering the Earth. Startup Virtus Solis has unveiled an ambitious project to create orbital power plants using SpaceX's Starship. This idea could significantly change the field of solar energy production, making it more accessible and cheaper. The core of the startup's plan is to reduce the cost of launching satellites into space using Starship. This technological breakthrough is expected to make solar energy production in space more competitive with traditional energy sources. Virtual Solis plans to build large photovoltaic panels in orbit, using Starship to deliver the necessary equipment. However, one of the key challenges ... >>

Wheat breeding has led to a decrease in its resistance 02.01.2019

Food security is largely determined by the yield of major crops. Climate change leads to changes in the weather, and, as a result, the variability of the harvest and food prices, and hence their availability. Uncertainty that food will be affordable causes waves of migration and political instability. To date, breeding methods can ensure a sufficient level of wheat yield in the current climatic conditions, but the climate is changing and many popular varieties may become underproductive.

Helena Kahiluoto of the Lappeenranta University of Technology and colleagues from other European universities analyzed wheat yield data from nine countries - Finland, Denmark, Germany, Belgium, the Czech Republic, France, Slovakia, Italy and Spain. The full data set consisted of almost 11 thousand numbers - the amount of wheat harvested per hectare, to which data on temperature, humidity, time and other parameters were compared. The scientists used data from 991 varieties of winter, spring and durum wheat grown between 1991 and 2014 in 636 locations in nine countries, as well as weather data from their growing areas in eight countries. At the first stage of the study, scientists chose climate change factors that have the greatest impact on crops (humidity, minimum temperatures at different times of the year, temperature changes). They then quantified the impact of climatic factors on crop yields.

The reason for the poor adaptation of plants to climate change, according to scientists, is a decrease in genetic diversity. Selection in favor of a few desired characteristics of the culture impoverishes the gene pool due to the disappearance of screened alleles. The genetic diversity of wheat began to decline after the 1990s. Researchers attribute this decline to an increase in the number of small-scale wheat producers. Increasing competition forced us to shorten the production cycle without wasting time on technological improvements.
