The Impact of Covid-19 on National Security of Nepal

With the announcement of a nationwide lockdown from 24th March 2020 in Nepal, national security is no longer limited to the proper use of economic power, political authority, and diplomacy. Public and private offices have asked their employees to work from home in the online space considering the uncertainty about the end of the COVID-19 pandemic. The introduction of the ‘new normal’ to maintain physical distance and perform the task from cyber/online space has demanded the redefinition of the concept of national security, i.e., beyond the protection of nation and citizens from potential attacks and ensuring the guard of the state secrets. With the responsibility to undertake the regular duties including preparation for war, investigation of crimes, safeguard of national territories, and the establishment of peace and order, the security forces of Nepal are piled up with another challenging responsibility of preventing cybercrime and its by-product in this ongoing digital era. As the security forces of Nepal are occupied with the task to address the pandemic situation, it is likely that criminals and terrorists take advantage of it and cause rampant cybercrimes. Electronic Transaction Act, 2063B.S (2008A.D) is the major law that authenticates, regularizes, and controls the unauthorized use of electronic records in Nepal. This article focuses on the discussion if more than a decade older Act is sufficient to address the new cyber issues mushrooming in speedily running cyberspace. This article aims to explore various impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on different aspects of the national security of Nepal with special emphasis on cyber security. The study is conducted based on data obtained from different sources. Published articles, news, documentaries, and comparative study related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on national security are searched and reviewed for this study.
Bridging Privacy and Solidarity in COVID-19 Contact-tracing Apps through the Sociotechnical Systems Perspective

The COVID-19 pandemic confronts people with moral uncertainty, where they balance daily the individual values, rights, and needs with the collective perspective. COVID-19 contact-tracing apps offer digital media to correlate the movement of people with COVID-19 cases with the help of integrated date from public health organizations. This helps to notify people when they come in proximity with carriers of the disease. Regardless of the differences in the technical setup and manner of introduction globally, the values of privacy and solidarity are often pitted against each other when discussing COVID-19 apps. In this paper, I reframe the COVID-19 tracking apps from being neither a messiah nor a destroyer of pandemic management, but as a localized and complex sociotechnical system helping to shape and qualify moral concerns. This will allow to not only expand the scope of discussion beyond privacy and solidarity, but demonstrate how the two can be bridged under careful consideration of the technical, sociocultural, and institutional embedding.
Development of a Forecasting Model for Farm Produce using Fuzzy Cognitive Map

A Fuzzy Cognitive Maps (FCMs) is a modeling methodology based on exploiting knowledge and experience. It comprises the main advantages of fuzzy logic and neural networks, representing a graphical model that consists of nodes-concepts which are connected with weighted edges (representing the cause and effect relationships among the concepts). FCMs have proved to be a promising modeling methodology with many successful applications in different areas especially for simulating system design, modeling and control. Improving the crop yield has always been a major challenge for farming community as well for agricultural scientists. Though various computational approaches (qualitative and quantitative analysis) have been followed traditionally in practice, still a persistent decision making method to improve crop yield is not yet predicted.In this work, FCMs are introduced to model a decision support system for precision agriculture (PA). The FCM model developedconsists of nodes which describe soil properties and agricultural crop yield and of the weighted relationships between these nodes. The nodes of the FCM model represent the main factors influencing crop production i.e. essential soil properties such as soil texture, temperature, soil fertility, bulk density, pH, annual rainfall, pest infestation among others.This work provides a clear understanding to agricultural products yield forecasting. The information obtained at the end of this work will be useful to agricultural scientists, farmers and other stakeholders

Rise of the Quantum Machines: Fundamentals

Los Alamos Laboratory was celebrating its fortieth anniversary on April 14, 1983. Physics Laureate Richard P. Feynman stated in a lecture titled “Tiny Computers Obeying Quantum-Mechanical Laws” that computing based on classical logic could not easily and efficiently process calculations describing quantum phenomena. He offered his vision of computing that could operate in a quantum manner. Prior to making these historical comments, Feynman had always been a champion of thoughts leading toward computers leveraging laws of quantum mechanics when he stated, “There’s plenty of room at the bottom” and, “Nature isn’t classical. If you want to make a simulation of nature, you’d better make it quantum mechanical,” which means to properly simulate quantum systems, you must use a quantum computer.

Research on Declaration of The 4th Industrial Spirit Revolution

Smart city has effect toward its sustainability. Citizens should be viewed as co-creators of cities, not consumers. From this point of view, citizen responsibility and ethics should be emphasized. Now, Smart cities are becoming more important than ever. From now on, urban development is divided into two major categories. One side is the development based on smart city, and the other is urban development that revives the old city. As the city grows bigger and bigger, many problems arise and there are many problems. This tendency must become stronger in the future. But, Stones shall be dressed to exact size and shapes before being laid. Until now, No attempt has been made to declare about Citizen Spirit in Fourth Industrial Revolution. In the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, in order to become a leading country of Smart City, we must first complete the spiritual revolution. From this aspect, this study proposes the “Declaration of the Fourth Industrial Spirit Revolution”.
Intellisensed Street Light

Now-a-days, power consumption has been increased by street light as they remain turned on unnecessarily. The operations of street light i.e. switching on/off of street light are done by human being which is sometimes time consuming and wastage of energy. However, saving power is need of an hour because natural resources are degrading day-by day. Therefore, each and every citizen is responsible for saving power as well as other natural resources. By understanding drawback of the current system, this paper proposes a new idea of Smart Street Light System that can reduce human work as well as the consumption of power. The web module is designed to gather data continuously about power consumption of LED and sent to cloud server. The main objective of Smart Street Light System is that to get automatically activated in absence of sunlight and it will be deactivated/turned off automatically if IR sensor doesn’t detect any human, vehicle or any other object.
Converging to Converge? A Comment

Kremer, Willis, and You (2021) revisit cross-country convergence patterns over the last six decades. They provide evidence that the lack of convergence that applied early in the sample has now been replaced by modest convergence. They also argue this relationship is driven by convergence in various determinants of economic growth across countries and a flattening of the relationship between these determinants and growth. Although the patterns documented by the authors are intriguing, our reanalysis finds that these results are driven by the lack of country fixed effects controlling for unobserved determinants of GDP per capita across countries. We show theoretically and empirically that failure to include country fixed effects will create a bias in convergence coeffcients towards zero and this bias can be time-varying, even when the underlying country-level parameters are stable. These results are relevant not just for the current paper, but for the convergence literature more generally. Our reanalysis finds no evidence of major changes in patterns of convergence and, more importantly, no flattening of the relationship between institutional variables and economic growth. Focusing on democracy, we show that this variable's impact continues to be precisely estimated and if anything a little larger than at the beginning of the sample.
