Increased globalization and the surging count of the population across the world indicate the need for more sustainable supply chains, especially those allied with the food industry. Nowadays, the demand for processed food items is increasing and establishing new markets globally. The sequence of activities starting from the farm and ending at the fork determines the sustainability within processed food supply chain (FSC) dynamics. Emphasizing sustainability-based performance systems in the processed FSC marks an effective and efficient utilization of resources, strengthening the dimension of economic, environmental, and societal benefits. The presented work aimed to review the avenues for adopting sustainability in the actions of Indian processed FSCs. For the same relation hierarchical models, clustering the various key enactors of sustainability in processed FSCs, every functional tier was developed. This relational, hierarchical framework was contemplated by implying the Pythagorean fuzzy set. The proposed methodology handled the mutual interrelation between the enactors and the uncertainty associated with human judgments, establishing the sequence of sustainability enactors. Outcomes of the presented study have implications in developing the framework, policy formulation, decisional attributes, facilitating field practitioners in streamlining, and embedding sustainability within the actions of processed FSCs.

BACKGROUND The healthcare system in most of the developing countries has been struggling to provide high-quality services. This limitation has negatively affected the performance and safety of healthcare personnel, as well as patients’ satisfaction. OBJECTIVE To provide an overview of the current knowledge of integrating human factors/ergonomics technology to improve healthcare service delivery in developing nations METHODS The authors reviewed the current literature focusing on mhealth interventions in developing countries. This review included the integration of mobile phone applications as well as Short Messaging Service (SMS). RESULTS Previous research on the integration of mhealth in developing countries focused on the use of mobile phone applications and SMS text messaging. However, the effectiveness of such programs has not to be reported in most of these studies. CONCLUSIONS Although little research was found in the implementation of mhealth technologies such as the Short Messaging Service (SMS) to improve healthcare service delivery in the developing nations, the effectiveness of such programs has not been reported. Therefore, future research should focus on evaluating the outcomes of mhealth interventions to ensure that patients in developing countries have access to high-quality healthcare services.
