This study focuses on the load balancing of the transactions in the blockchain. The problem is how to assign these transactions to the blocks. The objective is to guarantee a load balancing of the workload in the time of blocks. The proposed problem is an NP-hard one. To face the hardness of the studied problem, the challenge is to develop algorithms that solve the problem approximately. Finding an approximate solution is a real challenge. In this paper, nine algorithms are proposed. These algorithms are based on the dispatching-rules method, randomization approach, clustering algorithms, and iterative method. The proposed algorithms return approximate solutions in a remarkable time. In addition, in this paper, a novel architecture composed of blocks is proposed. This architecture adds the component “Balancer”. This component is responsible to call the best-proposed algorithm and solve the scheduling problem in a polynomial time. In addition, the proposed work helps users to solve the problem of big data concurrency. These algorithms are coded and compared. The performance of these algorithms is tested over three classes of instances. These classes are generated based on uniform distribution. The total number of instances tested is 1350. The average gap, execution time, and the percentage of the best-reached value are used as metrics to measure the performance of the proposed algorithms. Experimental results show the performance of these algorithms and a comparison between them is discussed. The experimental results show that the best algorithm is best-mi-transactions iterative multi-choice with 93.9% in an average running time of 0.003 s.

This research dealt with the problem of scheduling applied to the supercomputer’s execution. The goal is to develop an appreciated algorithm that schedules a group of several programs characterized by their time consuming very high on different supercomputers searching for an efficient assignment of the total running time. This efficient assignment grantees the fair load distribution of the execution on the supercomputers. The essential goal of this research is to propose several algorithms that can ensure the load balancing of the execution of all programs. In this research, all supercomputers are assumed to have the same hardware characteristics. The main objective is to minimize the gap between the total running time of the supercomputers. This minimization of the gap encompasses the development of novel solutions giving planning of the executable programs. Different algorithms are presented to minimize the gap in running time. The experimental study proves that the developed algorithms are efficient in terms of performance evaluation and running time. A comparison between the presented algorithms is discussed through different classes of instances where in total the number of instances reached 630. The experiments show that the efficient algorithm is the best-programs choice algorithm. Indeed, this algorithm reached the percentage of 72.86%, an average running time of 0.0121, and a gap value of 0.0545.

Occupational Stress and Personality in Medical Doctors from Romania

Occupational stress amongst doctors has been intensively studied as doctors are exposed to several stress factors daily. The purpose of this study was to investigate if there are associations between personality dimensions and the factors that generate stress at work. We conducted a cross-sectional study of 280 medical doctors from Romania between February 2021 and September 2021 who were evaluated using the DECAS and ASSET Scales. Our results showed that the agreeableness and emotional stability dimensions of personality, according to the Big Five model, were statistically associated with work relationships (A p < 0.0001; ES p = 0.0005), work-life balance (A p = 0.008; ES p = 0.01), overload (A p = 0.01; ES p = 0.001), job security (A p < 0.0001; ES p = 0.002), job control (A p = 0.001; ES p = 0.009), resources and communication (A p = 0.0002; ES p < 0.0001), and job conditions (A p = 0.005; ES p = 0.03). The conscientiousness dimension was statistically associated with job control (p = 0.02). Doctors from different specialties experienced stress differently, with psychiatrists and doctors from preclinical specialties reporting the lowest levels of stress. Internists and surgeons reported higher levels of stress. This study showed that the dimensions of agreeableness and emotional stability were both associated with variables indicative of the level of stress felt at work.
