A Parallel Event System for Large-Scale Cloud Simulations in DISSECT-CF

Discrete Event Simulation (DES) frameworks gained significant popularity to support and evaluate cloud computing environments. They support decision-making for complex scenarios, saving time and effort. The majority of these frameworks lack parallel execution. In spite being a sequential framework, DISSECT-CF introduced significant performance improvements when simulating Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) clouds. Even with these improvements over the state of the art sequential simulators, there are several scenarios (e.g., large scale Internet of Things or serverless computing systems) which DISSECT-CF would not simulate in a timely fashion. To remedy such scenarios this paper introduces parallel execution to its most abstract subsystem: the event system. The new event subsystem detects when multiple events occur at a specific time instance of the simulation and decides to execute them either on a parallel or a sequential fashion. This decision is mainly based on the number of independent events and the expected workload of a particular event. In our evaluation, we focused exclusively on time management scenarios. While we did so, we ensured the behaviour of the events should be equivalent to realistic, larger-scale simulation scenarios. This allowed us to understand the effects of parallelism on the whole framework, while we also shown the gains of the new system compared to the old sequential one. With regards to scaling, we observed it to be proportional to the number of cores in the utilised SMP host.

Human Capital Sustainability and Organizational Performance: The Case of a Travel Agency

The tourism industry in the Middle East plays a critical role in maintaining and energizing countries' economic status. It has a major element in facing numerous human capital obstacles that are deepening its development. This paper seeks to explore how the enhancement of human capital in a travel agency can have a significant positive impact on its performance, by studying the importance and consequences of the enhancement of human capital to improve specifically a travel agency's performance. This research aims to identify and remedy the delinquencies in the enterprise’s human capital that are obstructing its growth performance. We utilized the socio-economic methodology, which is a mix of qualitative, quantitative, and financial approaches, to remediate the organizational transition from within the travel agency at all stages and with the participation of all the members in the enterprise. The research study focuses on human capital dimensions across metrics for maximizing performance effectiveness that endorsed our hypothesis: “Enhancement of human capital improves travel agency firm’s performance”. The results of this intervention research add to the literature of the human capital variable of intellectual capital theory, which previous authors did not explore, by providing considerable contributions to the field of intellectual capital in a specific set of metrics. It demonstrated a positive impact on the travel agency firm’s performance through the enhancement of Human capital through time management, sales activity, marketing, and communication skills enhancement.

A Programming Language for Sound Self-Adaptive Systems

The ability for systems to adapt at runtime by hot-swapping their logic, seamlessly and without any apparent interruption, allows a program to adjust its behavior to its context. Research in adaptive systems support has to date focused on the basic mechanics of hot-swapping code at runtime, with the soundness of a system after each hot-swap left to the developer to assure on a case-by-case basis. Providing this assurance in existing programming languages is sufficiently difficult that self-adaptive systems using hot-swapping remain largely untrusted for production use. In this context we study two research questions: (i) what is the general soundness principle for self-adaptive systems; and (ii) how can we embed this soundness principle in a general-purpose programming language? We answer these questions partly by theoretical analysis, and partly through developing a novel general-purpose programming language which embeds our soundness principle -- allowing any module to be hot-swapped with the soundness of the wider system guaranteed.
AN ANALYSIS OF SPEECH ACT USED IN THE WRITTEN CONVERSATIONS FROM ENGLISH TEXTBOOK FOR JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL GRADE IX PUBLISHED BY THE MINISTRY OF EDUCATION AND CULTURE IN 2018

The application of pragmatics often used in an English textbook, namely, Speech Act, is applied to state the action or intention of doing something indirectly so that the teachers, who are teaching the most students that did not really understand the various meanings from some conversations, should comprehend the context first by checking the type of speech act. The purposes of this research were to identify the types of speech acts found in the utterances of each conversation and to reveal the function of each speech act found in each utterance of every conversation contained in Bahasa Inggris (English): Think Globally Act Locally for Grade IX.The researcher employed the descriptive qualitative research. The most needed instrument was the researcher, and the secondary instrument was in the form of the data sheet. The primary source of the data was the textbook itself, and some downloaded books and journals are used to complete the data needed. For the data collection process, the researcher applied “observation”. The researcher also used the model of data analysis procedure named content analysis. For checking the trustworthiness of data, the researcher involved the four components called credibility, transferability, dependability, and confirmability. Based on the analysis conducted by the researcher, there were five types of speech act according to the Searle’s classification found in the textbook: assertive or representatives with 96 data (41.4%), both directives and expressive had the same number with 65 data (28.0%), commissives with 5 data (2.2%), and declarations with 1 datum (0.4%). For the second result, the researcher found that these five types of speech act with their own functions were all existed in two hundred and thirty-two utterances used by the speaker of each conversation in the textbook.

STUDENT MATHEMATICAL OLYMPIADS AND COMPETITIONS IN USPU AS AN INFORMAL LEVEL INDICATOR AND A TOOL OF MOTIVATION FOR DEEPENING THE SUBJECT TRAINING OF FUTURE TEACHERS

There is no doubt that the level of mass mathematical training of citizens is one of the key conditions and indicators of the preparedness of society for life in the future digital structure of the national economy. In particular, the currently priority technologies of artificial intelligence can be effectively mastered by citizens only with a sufficient level of development of their own cognitive abilities, which is largely predetermined by the level of mathematical training. At the same time, mastering mathematics and, more broadly, developing one's own cognitive abilities, is a difficult and problematic process. There fore, studies aimed at finding effective psychological and pedagogical tools to increase motivation to study mathematics at all levels of education and even outside formal educational structures are relevant. These tools include math Olympiads and various math competitions. The article summarizes the experience of practical work of authors representing the team of the Department of Higher Mathematics and Methods of Teaching Mathematics of the Institute of Mathematics, Physics, Informatics and Technology of the Ural State Pedagogical University, on the organization and conduct of mathematical Olympiads and other mathematical competitions from urban to international level. Longterm experience has shown that these events traditionally arouse great interest of students, both as their participants and as co-performers, and can serve as a quite indicative informal indicator of the quality of the subject mathematical training of future teachers. Participation in the preparation and conduct of Olympiads is an important component of the training of future teachers in the context of mastering the skills of organizing extracurricular activities and pedagogical work with adolescents with special educational needs (in this case, the most prepared and motivated to study mathematics outside the standard school curriculum in the subject). The prospects for the further development of the Olympiad mathematical movement “from the Ural State Pedagogical University” are discussed.
User Acquisition and Engagement in Digital News Media

Generating revenue has been a major issue for the news industry and journalism over the past decade. In fact, vast availability of free online news sources causes online news media agencies to face user acquisition and engagement as pressing issues more than before. Although digital news media agencies are seeking sustainable relationships with their users, their current business models do not satisfy this demand. As a matter of fact, they need to understand and predict how much an article can engage a reader as a crucial step in attracting readers, and then maximize the engagement using some strategies. Moreover, news media companies need effective algorithmic tools to identify users who are prone to subscription. Last but not least, online news agencies need to make smarter decisions in the way that they deliver articles to users to maximize the potential benefits. In this dissertation, we take the first steps towards achieving these goals and investigate these challenges from data mining /machine learning perspectives. First, we investigate the problem of understanding and predicting article engagement in terms of dwell time as one of the most important factors in digital news media. In particular, we design data exploratory models studying the textual elements (e.g., events, emotions) involved in article stories, and find their relationships with the engagement patterns. In the prediction task, we design a framework to predict the article dwell time based on a deep neural network architecture which exploits the interactions among important elements (i.e., augmented features) in the article content as well as the neural representation of the content to achieve the better performance.In the second part of the dissertation, we address the problem of identifying valuable visitors who are likely to subscribe in the future. We suggest that the decision for subscription is not a sudden, instantaneous action, but it is the informed decision based on positive experience with the newspaper. As such, we propose effective engagement measures and show that they are effective in building the predictive model for subscription. We design a model that predicts not only the potential subscribers but also the time that a user would subscribe. In the last part of this thesis, we consider the paywall problem in online newspapers. The traditional paywall method offers a non-subscribed reader a fixed number of free articles in a period of time (e.g., a month), and then directs the user to the subscription page for further reading. We argue that there is no direct relationship between the number of paywalls presented to readers and the number of subscriptions, and that this artificial barrier, if not used well, may disengage potential subscribers and thus may not well serve its purpose of increasing revenue. We propose an adaptive paywall mechanism to balance the benefit of showing an article against that of displaying the paywall (i.e., terminating the session). We first define the notion of cost and utility that are…

The Effectiveness of Integrating Write Around Model and Surah Al Qalam Value in Teaching

This research is a type of experimental research that aims to describe the influence of applying the write around type of cooperative learning model in learning to write short stories in class XI students of SMA 1 Polewali. The population of this study was the XI grade students of Polewali 1 High School and the sample of this study was taken by random sampling consisting of two classes. One class was made a control class, namely students of class XI IBB 2 who were taught not to use the cooperative learning model type write around and one class as the experimental class, namely students of class XI IBB 1 who were taught using the write around type cooperative learning model. The results of the research data were analyzed using the SPSS 21 for windows program. The results of the descriptive analysis provided information that the ability of the control group students in the initial test produced an average score of 60.00 in the less category, and in the final test 63.10 was still in the category less, the standard deviation in the final test was 8.243 while the experimental group students using the write around cooperative learning model on the initial test had an average score of 63.85 in the less category, and the final test produced an average score of 75.91 of which were in the capable category with a standard deviation in the final test 7.145. Inferential statistical analysis obtained a value of t count = 6.607 > t table = 2.00, then the t count falls in the rejection area H0 . This means that hypothetical H 1 is accepted. Then the conclusion is that the application of the write around type cooperative learning model influences the ability to write short stories of class XI students in IBB 1, Polewali 1 High School.

On Prover-Efficient Public-Coin Emulation of Interactive Proofs

A central question in the study of interactive proofs is the relationship between private-coin proofs, where the verifier is allowed to hide its randomness from the prover, and public-coin proofs, where the verifier’s random coins are sent to the prover. The seminal work of Goldwasser and Sipser [STOC 1986] showed how to transform private-coin proofs into public-coin ones. However, their transformation incurs a super-polynomial blowup in the running time of the honest prover.In this work, we study transformations from private-coin proofs to public-coin proofs that preserve (up to polynomial factors) the running time of the prover. We re-consider this question in light of the emergence of doubly-efficient interactive proofs, where the honest prover is required to run in polynomial time and the verifier should run in near-linear time. Can every private-coin doubly-efficient interactive proof be transformed into a public-coin doubly-efficient proof? Adapting a result of Vadhan [STOC 2000], we show that, assuming one-way functions exist, there is no general-purpose black-box private-coin to public-coin transformation for doubly-efficient interactive proofs.Our main result is a loose converse: if (auxiliary-input infinitely-often) one-way functions do not exist, then there exists a general-purpose efficiency-preserving transformation. To prove this result, we show a general condition that suffices for transforming a doubly-efficient private coin protocol: every such protocol induces an efficiently computable function, such that if this function is efficiently invertible (in the sense of one-way functions), then the proof can be efficiently transformed into a public-coin proof system with a polynomial-time honest prover. This result motivates a study of other general conditions that allow for efficiency-preserving private to public coin transformations. We identify an additional (incomparable) condition to that used in our main result. This condition allows for transforming any private coin interactive proof where (roughly) it is possible to efficiently approximate the number of verifier coins consistent with a partial transcript. This allows for transforming any constant-round interactive proof that has this property (even if it is not doubly-efficient). We demonstrate the applicability of this final result by using it to transform a private-coin protocol of Rothblum, Vadhan and Wigderson [STOC 2013], obtaining a doubly-efficient public-coin protocol for verifying that a given graph is close to bipartite in a setting for which such a protocol was not previously known.

An Experiment to Find Gender & Age Classification Using CNNs

Automatic age and gender characterization has gotten pertinent to an expanding number of utilizations, especially since the ascent of social stages and web-based media. In any case, execution of existing techniques on true pictures is still altogether missing, particularly when contrasted with the colossal jumps in execution as of late detailed for the connected assignment of face acknowledgment. In this paper we show that by learning portrayals using profound convolution neural organizations (CNN), a huge expansion in execution can be acquired on these undertakings. To this end, we propose a basic convolution net engineering that can be utilized in any event, when the measure of learning information is restricted. We assess our technique on the new Audience benchmark for age and sexual orientation assessment and show it to significantly beat present status of-the-workmanship strategies.How to cite this article:Arif D, Murali B.

Wagon-The Smart Wheelchair

A survey reveals that there are around 21 million people suffering from some or the other kind of disability in India alone, out of which 27.9% are physically disabled. A plays a crucial role in the life of a physically disabled individual. There are a lot of such disabled people who can not use traditional wheelchairs as they may have restricted limb movements. An alternative to the above problem is proposed. This project Wagon - The smart wheelchair comprises a that works on hand gestures, voice command inputs, app inputs(Keypad), and head movements input for successful locomotion of the differently-abled persons. This project incorporates an additional SoS feature in the application for emergency situations. In this work, an attempt is made to make the lives of the differently-abled people simpler, i.e., self-reliant, which will thereby reinstate their confidence and happiness.
