Computer science between traditions and innovations -- Methods and Algorithms for Creating and Reconfiguring Virtual Organizations -- Some remarks regarding traditions and innovations in the educational process -- Phenomenographic Approach to Teachers’ Wait-time Use: Reasons and Consequences -- Some aspects of decision-making processes in social contexts -- Assessing Diversity and Inclusion in the context of the U.S. Federal Department of Health and Human Services -- Recent social perspectives between traditions and innovations -- Selected aspects of barrier materials assessment as a part of the reaction on threats and risks connected with CBRN problems.

This book explores several branches of the social sciences and their perspectives regarding their relations with decision-making processes: computer science, education, linguistics, sociology, and management. The decision-making process in social contexts is based on the analysis of sound alternatives using evaluative criteria. Therefore, this process is one that can be rational or irrational, and can be based on knowledge and/or beliefs. A decision-making process always produces a final decision, which may or may not imply prompt action, and increases the chances of choosing the best possible alternative. The book is divided into four main parts. The concepts covered in the first part, on computer science, explore how the rise of algorithms and the growth in computing power over the years can influence decision-making processes. In the second part, some traditional and innovative ideas and methods used in education are presented: compulsory schooling, inclusive schools, higher education, etc. In turn, the third part focuses on linguistics aspects, and examines how progress is manifested in language. The fourth part, on sociology, explores how society can be influenced by social norms, human interactions, culture, and religion. Management, regarded as a science of the decision-making process, is explored in the last part of this book. Selected organizations’ strategies, objectives and resources are presented, e.g., human resources, financial resources, and technological resources. The book gathers and presents, in a concise format, a broad range of aspects regarding the decision-making process in social contexts, making it a valuable and unique resource for the scientific community. .
