This study aimed to examine the effects of integrated simulation practice education for nursing college students on their communication skills, self-efficacy in learning, clinical reasoning ability, and clinical performance through a pre-post quasi-experimental design with a single group. The participants were 41 fourth-year nursing college students from a university located in G City, and the intervention took place from September to November 2023 over a period of nine weeks. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS 23.0, and the research findings are as follows. First, after simulation practice education, significant effects were observed in self-efficacy in learning (t=-2.21, p=.033), clinical reasoning ability (t=-2.97, p=.005), and clinical performance (t=-2.84, p=.007), but no significant difference was found in communication skills (t=-.224, p=.824). Second, after simulation classes for nursing students, clinical performance showed significant positive correlations with communication skills (r=.650, p<.001), self-efficacy in learning (r=.440, p<.001), and clinical reasoning ability (r=.824, p<.001). Based on these results, integrated simulation practice education for nursing students appears to be an effective educational method for enhancing their self-efficacy in learning, clinical reasoning ability, and clinical performance. To improve nursing students' clinical performance, it is necessary to operate simulation practices with various scenarios.

In this study, we developed a simulation app that performs the Test-and-Set algorithm. The test-and-set algorithm is a highly difficult algorithm, so this simulation app was created for learners who have difficulty understanding it. Learners who want to understand the Test-and-Set algorithm gather to form a team, and use this simulation app to discuss and practice, and these teams can practice at the same time. The test-and-set, which is assumed to be a machine language, is not interrupted by using a queue, and it can be seen that the configured simulation app performs well in all three conditions of 'mutual exclusion', 'progress', and 'bounded waiting' that must be solved in the critical area problem.

In this paper the DRC model is presented for solving multi objective problem. The proposed model is a combination of data envelopment analysis, Cuckoo algorithm and the response surface method. Due to reasons like costs, time and irreversible damages, it is not possible to analyze each and every one of the proposed models in practice, so the simulation is used. Since the number of experiments for simulation process is high then the optimization has gone to practice and directs the simulation process. The response surface method is used as one of the approaches of simulation optimization. Furthermore, data envelopment analysis is used to consider several response surfaces as efficiency response surface. Then this efficiency response surface is solved by Cuckoo algorithms. The main advantage of DRC model is to make one efficiency response surface function instate of multi surface function for every output and also using the advantages of Cuckoo algorithms. In order to demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach, the branches of Refah bank in Mashhad is analyzed and the results are presented.

Prime movers in engine rooms inherently are much affected by the adjustment of their governors for the steady state and transient properties, consequently requiring that marine engineers shall be well familiar with the way to manage governor dials for normal operation. The hydro-mechanical governors basically have different control characteristics and adjustment parameters of stability from digital governors. The former include compensation mechanism using dash pot while the control algorithm of the latter is usually based on the PID action. This study is for configuring a simulation module to let trainees practice how to adjust dials for stability on hydraulic governors in the view that the practice by real governors and engines is time consuming and high cost for operation. The governor module includes the adjusting points such as speed set, speed droop, needle valve and compensation pointer with engine module of $2^{nd}$ order coupled. The results of simulation showed satisfactory responses as a training tool for the adjustment of control parameters.

The purpose of this study aimed to find the effect of self-esteem and communication competence on clinical practice stress of the Korean nursing students. A total of 198 nursing students participated in this study. Data collection was conducted through the use of questionnaires constructed to include the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale, Global Interpersonal Communication Competence, and the Clinical Competence Scale. As a result, self-esteem, communication competence, and clinical practice stress of the Korean nursing students were found to be(Self-esteem: $3.4{\pm}0.57$; Communication competence: $3.5{\pm}0.42$; Clinical practice stress: $3.6{\pm}0.58$). Also, the nursing students with female(85.4%), experience of simulation on clinical training(72.2%) were found to have significantly higher clinical practice stress. Moreover, there were significant correlations between self-esteem and undesirable role model(r=.156, p=.029), communication competence and clinical practice stress(r=-.329, p<.001). The factors affecting clinical practice stress were communication competence, gender, satisfaction of clinical practice, and experience of simulation on clinical training. They amounted to 27.8% in clinical practice stress. The results indicate a need to develop effective teaching methods and learning strategies to decrease clinical practice stress of the nursing students.

The purpose of this study was to develop a nursing management case simulation (NMCS) framework based on the five components of nursing management process and to apply it to clinical nursing practice of nursing college students. The subjects of this study were NMCS reports submitted by the 4th grade 105 nursing students of an university. The research tool is a simulation framework for nursing management practice. It reflects the brainstorming and debriefing process used in the previous simulation exercise based on the five elements of planning, organization, human resource management, directing and control of the nursing management process respectively. As a result of the study, 32 nursing management cases were found to have 79.6% correct rate, 11.6% concept error rate, and 5.6% classification error rate in the first brainstorming and debriefing process for the five components of nursing management process. On the other hand, in the second brainstorming and debriefing process, 94.6% correct rate, 0.0% concept error rate, and 4.4% classification error rate. Based on these results, the NMCS framework developed in this study can be applied to the nursing management theory and practice course of nursing college students as well as simulation based job training and maintenance educations for clinical nurses. Therefore, we propose follow-up studies in various clinical nursing settings and a longitudinal cohort study to investigate the effect of nursing management job skills of nursing college students after graduation.
