The 4th Industrial Revolution is well described as a digital revolution in which the integration between the physical, biological and digital fields can prompt unprecedented results in terms of research, innovation and products. Our brief discussion is built upon chemistry as a fundamental science in this context: it emerges with contributions for advanced digital technologies along with clean energy, sustainable processes and circular economy for the industry 4.0. Since the previous industrial revolutions brought uncertainty in the environment-chemistry binomial it is urgent achieving a systemic industrial innovation in order to promote a technological, energetic and social transition toward a sustainable future, especially in the alarming context of climate change. Despite the Brazilian chemical industry represents the largest in the Southern hemisphere it has few integrated chemical supply chains which represents a bottleneck toward advances in the manufacturing base. Within both academy and industry, the groundbreaking shift in the chemical sector can enable opportunities to chemists build a better future. At the same time, a paradigm shift is leading us to new methods, models and, consequently, disruption in the way of producing and sharing knowledge. Finally, some skills were proposed for chemists within the framework of the 4.0 era. th physical research products energy 40 4 0 environmentchemistry environment technological future change base time methods consequently knowledge Finally 4. era

The Fourth Industrial Revolution requires that the personalisation of processes for mass production evolve towards flexible, interconnected cloud production with greater automation in machines and operations. Despite its being one of the popular strategies for continuous improvement, many plants are struggling to turn Industry 4.0 into a success. This study focuses on the impact of Quality 4.0 implementation in industries. This paper reviews the published literature from 2014 to 2024. It involved a review of papers related to the impact of Quality 4.0 implementation in industries using a search of databases such as Google Scholar, Scopus Library, and Springer Link. The literature review contains the results from a variety of different perspectives, including the distributions by country, year of publication, and number of publishers. The results reveal an increasing interest in Quality 4.0 implementation in industries with a positive impact on process improvement; however, suggestions are made for the continuous refinement of the newly implemented concept.

Die Vierde Industriële Revolusie vereis dat die verpersoonliking van prosesse vir massaproduksie ontwikkel na buigsame, onderling gekoppelde wolkproduksie met groter outomatisering in masjiene en bedrywighede.

ORIENTATION: Digital health delivers value in the form of efficiency, efficacy and transformation by automation and strengthening of global health care systems, according to the World Health Organization. Yet, sub-Saharan Africa's (SSA) health care systems still experience an evident misalignment between their business models (BMs) and digital health value propositions. As a result, digital health interventions (DHI) are duplicated for similar purposes; several pilot projects hardly reach country-wide implementation and health security remains unattainable, in the Fourth Industrial Revolution era. RESEARCH PURPOSE: The study aims to conduct a scoping review highlighting how the value-add propositions of DHI could align with health care system BMs in SSA. MOTIVATION FOR THE STUDY: The study was informed by the need to address the impact of health care business models on adopting Digital Health and advanced Industry 4.0 technologies for Health Security in the sub-Saharan Africa (SSA) context. RESEARCH DESIGN, APPROACH AND METHOD: The paper followed Arksey and O'Malley's five-stage scoping review guide to identify publications on the value propositions of DHI in health care systems of SSA. MAIN FINDINGS: There is limited scholarly work focused on how sub-Saharan African health care system BMs cater to DHI in relation to the fast-paced advancements in technology. Drivers of value-add creation, inhibitors of digital health value capture and the requirements of BMs that support the value propositions offered by DHI were discussed. PRACTICAL/MANAGERIAL IMPLICATIONS: Findings can assist health managers to redirect the trajectory of integrating digital health value propositions interventions in SSA health care systems towards redressing recurrent challenges that inhibit technology adoption. CONTRIBUTION/VALUE-ADD: The paper highlights how the value-add propositions of digital health should be aligned to BMs of health care systems in SSA to ensure duplications are addressed and provide a move towards wide-scale implementations.

This article responds to the question: What are the critical success factors that support the implementation of Industry 4.0 competencies in TVET (technical and vocational education and training) programme offerings? The scope of our study was programme offerings targeting STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) fields at the tertiary level across 15 countries in the Indo-Pacific region. The study evaluated the 'actions already taken' to implement Industry 4.0 competencies, and a survey questionnaire was used to collect data. The findings identified staff capacity development, a supportive culture, the availability of resources, and public awareness as critical success factors. In addition, TVET institution type and the annual growth rate of real GDP (gross domestic product) per employed person were found to boost the relationship between these factors. This means that TVET colleges are in a weaker position in implementing Industry 4.0 compared with the other two types of institutions in the study.

In addition, it highlighted the significance and application to the South African public sector

Serious games (SGs) are part and parcel of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and Education 4.0 that we are living in right now. A SG is an alternative educational approach where a part of the curriculum, in this case, the practical side of Practical Theology - being one of the subjects presented to prospective theologians and pastors - is presented in the form of a game, familiarising the students with practical issues in a congregation. This article takes the educator through the main steps on how to create an SG together with an entire team of people. The underlying goal of the article is to get one educator interested in venturing on this innovative and 'disruptive' expedition. INTRADISCIPLINARY AND/OR INTERDISCIPLINARY IMPLICATIONS: This article involves all the disciplines of Theology, especially Practical Theology, as well as Psychology and Information Technology (IT) (especially the designer and developer). The content of this article can be applied to any person in any discipline (whichever discipline it is) who wants to create an SG for their students

BACKGROUND: In the wake of Industry 4.0, libraries are integrating Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR) technologies to enhance efficiency. However, this shift in practice raises ethical and privacy concerns, particularly regarding the Protection of Personal Information Act (PoPI Act OBJECTIVES: This literature review explores the ethical and privacy challenges posed by 4IR technologies in delivering information services to library patrons including the impact on PoPI Act compliance in addressing data privacy concerns METHOD: Adopting a systematic approach, this literature review employs the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses flowchart and inclusion criteria focussed on 4IR in libraries and its relation to the PoPI Act. Peer-reviewed articles in English from 2013 to 2023 were sourced from scholarly databases RESULTS: The review highlights the transformation of academic library services in the 4IR era and the consequent privacy challenges. Concerns arise from advanced library systems and extensive data retention. While libraries operate non-profitably, the adoption of 4IR technologies for data acquisition mirrors commercial practices, raising ethical questions. Patron privacy issues extend beyond traditional data collection to potential misuse and improper data handling as libraries often work with vendors CONCLUSION: The integration of 4IR technologies in academic libraries necessitates a delicate balance between improved services and safeguarding user privacy and the PoPI Act serves as a crucial regulatory framework. Librarians must navigate the evolving landscape of data ethics, emphasising transparency, accountability and adherence to privacy legislation CONTRIBUTION: The introduction of artificial intelligence and 4IR technologies to library information services has unlimited possibilities including countering misinformation and disinformation, and the expansion of library services to tech-savvy users beyond the physical walls of the library building. However, the deployment of these technologies raises new questions about ethical concerns that the use of these technologies poses to information professionals in the rendition of library services. The results of this study will be useful for policy and professional practice in taking full advantage of 4IR technologies and services

Esto no solo amplía el acceso a la información, sino que también elimina las limitaciones de espacio físico y los horarios de apertura limitados. Además, los recursos digitales se pueden actualizar y compartir fácilmente, lo que garantiza que los usuarios tengan acceso a la información más actualizada, pero también ha llevado a que la brecha digital se haga más grande. Esta reflexión tuvo como objetivo proporcionar una introducción a la Industria 4.0 en las bibliotecas; explorar su definición, tecnologías clave y principios. Además, en ella se discute la aplicación de la Industria 4.0 en las bibliotecas y se destaca la integración de la automatización, la internet de las cosas y la inteligencia artificial en los procesos y servicios bibliotecarios. Sin embargo, a pesar de los beneficios que trae la Revolución Industrial 4.0, las bibliotecas también enfrentan varios desafíos para cerrar la brecha digital. Uno de los principales desafíos es garantizar la igualdad de acceso a las tecnologías e infraestructuras digitales.

Abstract In the actual evolving technology landscape, the concept of Industry 4.0 has gained significant attention in various sectors. Industry 4.0, also known as the Fourth Industrial Revolution, refers to the integration of advanced digital technologies, which have had a profound impact on diverse industries, and libraries are no exception. Those days when libraries were solely repositories of physical books and magazines are now far away. Actually, libraries have become dynamic information centers that harness the power of technology to provide a wide range of services to their users. The introduction of digital resources and online databases has revolutionized the way libraries provide access to information. With the availability of e-books, e-magazines, and online databases, users can access a wide range of resources from the comfort of their own homes. This not only broadens access to information, but also removes physical space constraints and limited opening hours. In addition, digital resources can be easily updated and shared, which ensures that users have access to the most up-to-date information, but has also led to the digital divide becoming larger. This essay aims to introduce Industry 4.0 in libraries, exploring its definition, key technologies and principles. In addition, he will discuss the application of Industry 4.0 in libraries, highlighting the integration of automation, internet of things and artificial intelligence in library processes and services. However, despite the benefits that Industrial Revolution 4.0 brings, libraries also face several challenges in bridging the digital divide. One of the main challenges is to guarantee equal access to digital technologies and infrastructures.

Abstract: Construction is a sector that has been operating with lower productivity rates than other industries; historically, it has used artisanal methods, which have generated low competitiveness and efficiency, leading to considerable cost overruns and waste. For these reasons, the industrial revolution 4.0 is a movement involving large-scale changes and a transversal implementation of technology in industries' value chains. In the same way, the basic principles of Industry 4.0 can be applied to the construction sector in the term Construction 4.0, a movement that seeks to integrate new technologies with the processes of the industry, generating added value that allows for increased productivity, and close gaps with other industries. Therefore, a bibliometric analysis focused on Cluster analysis is presented, which allows knowing the research state of Construction 4.0 and its implications in developing the Construction sector. The search equation in the Web of Science (WOS) database was queried by topic (Construction 4.0), from which 225 scientific articles related to the subject were obtained. These articles are directly related to this new movement from new materials, more efficient construction processes, BIM, Digital Twin (DT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and other topics of research relevance in Construction 4.0. The main results show low research participation of Latin America in implementing technologies and methodologies offered by Construction 4.0. In contrast, developed countries, such as the United Kingdom, China, the United States, and Australia, show a greater interest in research and adopting these trends.

Resumen: La construcción es un sector que viene operando con tasas de productividad más bajas que otras industrias; históricamente ha utilizado métodos artesanales, que han generado baja competitividad y eficiencia, lo que ha generado sobrecostos y desperdicios considerables. Por estas razones, la revolución industrial 4.0 es un movimiento que implica cambios a gran escala y una implementación transversal de la tecnología en las cadenas de valor de las industrias. Del mismo modo, los principios básicos de la Industria 4.0 se pueden aplicar al sector de la construcción en el término Construcción 4.0, un movimiento que busca integrar las nuevas tecnologías con los procesos de la industria, generando un valor agregado que permita aumentar la productividad y cerrar brechas con otras industrias. Por ello, se presenta un análisis bibliométrico centrado en el análisis tipo Cluster, que permite conocer el estado de investigación de la Construcción 4.0 y sus implicaciones en el desarrollo del sector de la construcción. Se consultó la ecuación de búsqueda en la base de datos Web of Science (WOS) por tema (Construcción 4.0), de la cual se obtuvieron 225 artículos científicos relacionados con el tema. Estos artículos están directamente relacionados con este nuevo movimiento de nuevos materiales, procesos constructivos más eficientes, BIM, Gemelos Digitales, Inteligencia Artificial (AI), y otros temas de relevancia investigativa en Construcción 4.0. Los principales resultados muestran una baja participación investigativa de América Latina en la implementación de tecnologías y metodologías que ofrece la Construcción 4.0. En cambio, los países desarrollados, como Reino Unido, China, Estados Unidos y Australia, muestran un mayor interés por investigar y adoptar estas tendencias.

ABSTRACT The technological changes of the fourth industrial revolution show transformations in all areas (labor, education, politics, among others), which produces a radical change in the way to study, work, shop and socialize. The objective of this work was to identify elements of Education 4.0 and the technological toolbox that contribute to satisfy the current educational demands. The new paradigm implies that institutions take a series of actions aimed at increasing the flexibility of time and space for the whole participating community, considering the learning needs of students, applying blended learning and ICT-based self-learning, as well as improving collaborative learning strategies. In view of designing new educational innovation projects, consideration must be given to the four central components of Education 4.0: competences, learning methods, information and communication technologies, as well as infrastructure. Any professor's toolbox continues to be a necessary element for structuring contents methodologically and supporting the general educational process technologically, since this is a complex phenomenon belonging to the learning ecosystem. Current requirements, oriented to implementing technology as a necessity to face the modern dynamics of economies and knowledge, demand that education be modernized at different levels, especially higher education, with a regenerative vision of education, including elements from the toolbox and Education 4.0.

Abstract Purpose: This research aims to structure a hierarchical model that integrates the industry 4.0 (I4.0) concepts and standardizes concepts based on the literature. Originality/value: Kamble et al. (2018) point out the lack of architecture to represent I4.0 concepts. This paper brings an approach to the relationship between these concepts of I4.0. It expands the studies by Ghobakhloo (2018) and Liao et al. (2017) and homogenizes terms present in the literature. Design/methodology/approach: From a systematic review of the literature in the Scopus and ScienceDirect databases, from 2011 to 2019, 91 articles were reviewed, of which 58 articles were analyzed. Findings: From the literature, the terms related to I4.0 were grouped into three categories: technologies, principles, and dimensions. Technology clusters represent tools used to promote changes and transformations in the processes, here called principles. These changes and transformations create new industry standards, enabling process integration for problem-solving, and contributing to implementing intelligent management. The relationship between these categories results in a hierarchical model for I4.0 concepts. This hierarchical model can be used to identify opportunities for future research, demonstrating associations between categories that have not yet been explored. It opens possibilities for organizations to enter the fourth industrial revolution. The results help practitioners and researchers to understand this new process in detail and facilitate the construction of a valid and operational intelligent manufacturing platform.
