Harmonices Solaris - Sonification of the Planets

This project is a sonification of the planets in our solar system designed as a spatial audio installation. Audio for each planet was generated within Python using data from NASA about the planets (including Pluto). A Markov model across arbitrary pitch set space was used to generate pitch set collections for each planet with regard to the various parameters in the dataset. XP4Live is used for spatialization and visuals due to its real-time capability. The final piece, as presented, allows the audience to experience orbiting planet sound objects around them in space; the installation includes a mapping of the planets to faders on a MIDI controller allowing the audience to isolate individual planets to hear their sonic makeup and orbiting pattern. This model is presented in a spatial audio array of at least four speakers, but can also be presented as a binaural mix for virtual submission. Future work includes making this piece accessible to the public via a binaural rendering on a webpage, as well as VR implementation for enhanced interactivity.
Service-Oriented Programming Paradigm

From the previous chapter on concurrency, we now focus on distributed programming, and we explore the paradigm of service orientation. Distribution (as in “processes not sharing memory”) introduces both new problems and opportunities. In this chapter, we discuss these and present how dedicated programming language constructs help tackle and seize them. We explain the concept of “services” and describe how a programming paradigm around them evolved to deal with those prospects. In particular, we highlight how the evolution of the service-oriented paradigm sensibly intermingles with the possibility of supporting open-ended distributed architectures (so that one can build larger/more complex distributed programs from smaller/simpler ones, independently implemented by different developers). In our treatment, we make explicit the principles behind language design choices to support openness—namely, loose coupling and interoperability. We break down services into their fundamental concepts, examining their traits, the existing related language constructs, and the support and challenges they present to verify the correctness of distributed programs. To complete our introduction to the service-oriented paradigm, we also look at service-oriented architectures and cloud computing, to understand their role in enabling the development of the paradigm and in driving its evolution.
Logic Programming Paradigm

In this chapter we analyse a second main paradigm which supports declarative programming: logic programming. This paradigm includes both theoretical and fully implemented languages, of which the best known is surely Prolog. Even if there are big differences of a pragmatic and, for some, a theoretical nature between these languages, they all share the idea of interpreting computation as logical deduction. In this chapter, we will therefore examine these concepts while trying to limit the theoretical part. We also adopt the approach that has characterised the rest of the text while examining this paradigm. We do not mean therefore to teach programming in Prolog, even if we present various examples of real programs, but we do intend to provide enough basis for understanding and, in a short time, mastering this and other logic programming languages.
A secured database monitoring method to improve databackup and recovery operations in cloud computing

In general, the company sometimes uses unregistered functions in database, which significantly improvesperformance, but does not leave the possibility of recovery except for backup. That is, actions must be performedimmediately after passing the session. A queue problem is likely to cause data loss and downtime of about aweek. In modern conditions, this can lead to the bankruptcy of the company. It can be seen that backup systemshave been installed and configured, but despite this, they have not succeeded in restoring within the time framespecified in the SLA. In this study, a secured database monitoring method was proposed to improve data backupand recovery operations in cloud computing. In this proposed method, the backup speed is directly proportionalto the amount of data, while having at least 30% annual data growth. In 3–4 years, the data at least doubled, butfor some companies, this number is even higher, while the backup speed does not change. Those terms and thoseSLAs that were relevant 3–4 years ago now need to be at least doubled. At the same time, business requirementsfor data recovery (recovery point objective/recovery time objective) continue to grow.

This article delves into what motivates and what holds back potential business entities in the MSMEs sector from making a transition to blockchain-based cryptocurrencies like bitcoin. Our findings are narrowly focused on these impediments to adoption, which we identify as Lack of regulatory support, risk of revealing personal data system complexity, lack of regulatory authority, trust deficit, and value speculation.
Monthly Solar Prediction Using Machine Learning: Diyala Governorate, Iraq as a Case Study

Solar radiation constitutes the Earth’s primary energy source and is critical in regulating surface radiation equilibrium, vegetation photosynthesis, hydrological cycles, and extreme atmospheric. On the other hand, the depletion of global fossil fuel reserves mandates the power sector to adopt renewable energy-based sources, including photovoltaic and wind energy conversion systems. Therefore, the precise solar radiation prediction is imperative for climate research and the solar industry. This paper illustrates the use of two machine-learning approaches: random forest (RF) and support vector machine (SVM), to predict surface solar radiation in the Diyala governorate of Iraq for one step ahead, utilizing only lagged monthly time series data of the factor as input predictors. The findings were evaluated using three performance measures: coefficient of determination (R2), root mean square error (RMSE), and mean absolute error (MAE). The results showed that using 10 monthly lags time series as input predictors leads to the best prediction performance. Furthermore, in terms of the RMSE, the prediction performance of the RF algorithm was better than that of the SVM algorithm (RF's RMSE, MAE, and R2 were 181.398, 129.522, and 0.979, while for SVM were 240.149, 184.802, and 0.978, respectively).

Automatic translator from Portuguese (voice and text)to Portuguese sign language

One of the major focuses of technology, engineering, and computer science is to solve problems and improvethe quality of life in health. The relationship between health and technology has made great advances in thelast decades, and many cooperations are foreseen. Some citizens still have to deal with many obstacles daily tocope with the society as it is designed. One of the obstacles citizens deal with is deaf and hearing impairment.In Portugal, there are about 100,000 to 150,000 people with some level of hearing loss, and of these, around30,000 people use Portuguese Sign Language as their mother tongue (1); National Institute for Rehabilitation, (2).The greatest difficulties are appropriate or amend if necessary. Encountered by them are poor communicationwith hearing people and the need of a translator person. Communication became even more complicated withthe mandatory use of face mask, respect for the maximum number of people per division and social distancingdue to the COVID-19 pandemic. To diminish or even solve this issue, the authors developed an automatic voiceand text translation system to Portuguese sign language with captions. Sign language will be very useful for deafand hearing impairment citizens, and captions will be useful for deaf and hearing impairment citizens who don’tunderstand sign language. For that, programming language tools were developed to create a translator with thoserequests. This article describes the developments and achievements. For the proof of concept, the translatorstarted with 16 images in the database and reached a confidence level between 70 and 90%. This is an incentiveto further developments that authors are continuing to produce more improvements in the developed tool.

Implementing Number Theory in Visual Cryptography for Secure Online Transactions using QR Codes

Abstract: In this modern world, due to the excessive availability of the Internet, it is extremely easy for people to communicate and share multimedia contents with each other. Moreover, Online Transactions has also been widely developed, in which secure means of data transfer play the major role. At the same time, secure transfer of personal and copyrighted data has become a critical issue. Visual cryptography (VC) is a useful tool for securing data (i.e. images, texts) that contain sensitive information. As a subset of secret sharing, VC has got importance for its security mechanism, which takes into account both image processing and cryptography. To achieve this goal, we manipulate quick response (QR) code as a container. QR codes generated by a certain system can carry its ordinary message in addition to the secure data. Anyone can read the message, but the secure data can only be obtained using a secret key. In this paper, a specified field of Mathematics, Number Theory is implemented in the concepts of VC for the secure online transactions which is achieved using QR codes.

MEANING-FOCUSED INSTRUCTION (MFI) VS. FORM-FOCUSED INSTRUCTION (FFI): METAREFLECTION ON BIPA GRAMMAR LEARNING

The purpose of this research is to explore the beliefs of BIPA (Indonesian Language for Foreign Speakers) instructors and learners regarding grammar instruction. This research is a descriptive-quantitative study. The subjects consist of 10 BIPA instructors and 20 BIPA learners from UPT BIPA Muhammadiyah Malang University, CIS BIPA State University of Malang, IAIN Surakarta Language Center, and UPT BIPA State University of Medan. The research data include quantitative and qualitative data related to the beliefs that BIPA instructors and learners regarding the instructional framework for grammar learning. Data were collected through a questionnaire adapted from Burgess and Etherington (2022) and interviews. The data were then analyzed using descriptive statistics and qualitative analysis, referring to the beliefs of BIPA instructors and learners regarding grammar instruction. The data analysis results showed that there are differences in beliefs between BIPA learners and instructors regarding the instructional model for teaching Indonesian grammar. BIPA learners believe that Form-Focused Instruction (FFI) is more effective in mastering Indonesian grammar because it focuses on rules and is taught explicitly and deductively, allowing learners to directly understand the target language rules. In contrast, instructors believe that Meaning-Focused Instruction (MFI) is the most suitable instructional model for teaching Indonesian grammar because it focuses on communicative aspects and taught implicitly and inductively, enabling learners to better apply the target language rules. To accommodate these differences in beliefs, an instructional model is needed to accommodate it with the following stages: (1) exposure, (2) formulation of grammar rules, (3) reinforcement of grammar rules, and (4) the use of grammar rules.

Hierarchical controlled cyclic quantum teleportation

Abstract In this paper, a new hierarchical controlled cyclic quantum teleportation scheme is proposed, which can be applied to hierarchical quantum information transmission in a variety of application scenarios. In this scheme, Charlie in the low-level position can only complete simple sending tasks under the control of Bob, while Alice in the middle-level position needs to complete ordinary sending tasks under the control of Charlie and Diana; Bob in the high-level position needs to complete important tasks sent to Charlie under the control of the controller Diana and the high-level controller Eve. Diana and Eve can be regarded as both internal middle and high-level managers as well as different external regulators. Finally, this paper also discusses the number of controllers and their control capabilities, and briefly proposes a simplified hierarchical cyclic quantum teleportation scheme, which provides more options for users with different needs.
Scalable and programmable three-dimensional photonic processor

Three-dimensional photonic chips are superior in handling $N\phantom{\rule{0}{0ex}}P$-complete problems, but their large-scale application is hindered by the difficulty of programming them. The authors experimentally demonstrate a programmable three-dimensional photonic processor capable of solving the maximum clique problem by encoding injection conditions of photons. The prototype shows the potential of photonic computing, and is applied to solve molecular docking problems. The combination of non-von Neumann parallel computing architectures with fully programmable capabilities paves the way for wider practical applications and photonic computational advantages.

A study on the Prospective Mathematics Secondary Teachers’ Introduction of Concept of Function

The purpose of this study is to analyze and present what aspects of the concept of function that prospective mathematics secondary teachers emphasize when designing a class that introduces the concept of function using curriculum and textbooks. For this purpose, virtual instruction and reflections on virtual instruction were analyzed. The results are as follows. The prospective mathematics secondary teachers thought of function as correspondences and processes. Their conception of function was consistently observed during virtual instruction and reflections on virtual instruction. The prospective mathematics secondary teachers’ conception of function was closely related to the form of expressing functions. These results are considered to be empirical evidence that suggests implications for the prospective mathematics secondary teachers’ education and research to introduce the concept of function based on the dependent relation between variables presented in the 2015 revision of the national mathematics curriculum.
