Enhancement three-pass protocol security with combination caesar cipher and vigenere cipher

Abstract Key-based security is still the most widely used form of security today with a key distribution process between senders and receivers that is commonly perform and also it is a classic problem in cryptography where key must be share to other parties (sender or receiver) and its maybe known when third parties do sniffing process or man in the middle attack. Three-Pass Protocol is one solution that can be used to overcome the problem of key distribution, because the sender and receiver can encrypt and decrypt without need to exchange keys. Security in Three-Pass Protocol uses XOR logic so that the resulting ciphertext will be very easy to decrypt by those who are not responsible, to improve data security in the Three-Pass Protocol process which is use Caesar Cipher and Vigenere Cipher algorithms in the encryption and decryption process in the Pass Protocol scheme, and ciphertext encryption results are quite difficult to read and require a long time to decrypt them.

Enhancement of Gravitational Search Algorithm using A Differential Mutation Operator and Its Application on Reconstructing Gene Regulatory Network

Gravitational Search Algorithm (GSA) is a recent stochastic search algorithm that is inspired from the concepts of gravity rule and law of motion in physics. Despite its success and attractiveness, it has some coefficients and parameters that should be properly tuned to improve its performance. This paper studies the performance of GSA by varying the parameters that controls its gravitational force. Then a new differential mutation operator is proposed to enhance performance of GSA by accelerating its convergence. The proposed algorithm, namely DMGSA, is evaluated using 15 well-known benchmark functions from the special session of CEC2013 with different characteristics including randomly shifted optimum, rotation and non-separability. The results obviously confirms the performance achieved from the proposed mutation operator outperforms that from the attempts of parameter tuning in the original GSA. Lastly, DMGSA is applied for optimizing a small-scale gene regulatory network. The result demonstrates that its performance is highly competitive and clearly surpasses original GSA.
IMPROVING EARLY CHILDHOOD STUDENTS’ ENGLISH VOCABULARY BY USING ANIMAL POP UP SLIDE MEDIA IN TK AISYIYAH DOLOPO

Young learners can be defined as children in age ranging from five or six years old who are attending elementary school to twelve years old. In this research the researcher chose to teach vocabulary in TK (kindergarten) Aisyiyah Dolopo. The reason for choosing to teach vocabulary is because vocabulary is one of the important elements in language. The researcher focuses on teaching vocabulary words to the young learners. The researcher used pop up slide book to improve students’ vocabulary. The pop up slide book is a book which shows three dimensional pictures when the pull or trigger is pulled. The name pop up slide book is originated from the term “Slide” which means “to move smoothly along a surface”. The name slide was added by the researcher as the new variant of pop up book. The method for this research was Classroom Action Research which took two cycles. This research method was conducted to know the problems inside the classroom thus the solution can be found. The goal of this research is to make children learn English through pop up slide book. The instruments used in this research were observation, interview and test. The research results based on the implementation of popup animal slide media in TK Aisyiyah Dolopo Madiun showed that in cycle 1 up to cycle 2 the implementation of pop up slide book was able to improve students’ score. In the first cycle many students achieved score 70 and in the second observation their score were above 80. The highest score was 100 for the test in cycle 2. The interview result showed that 100% of the students liked the pop up slide book with the animal poster. In the first interview cycle, 87% of students were afraid to learn English but in the second interview cycle, 100% of students could speak English comfortably without hesitation.

Evaluation of role of mean corpuscular volume and RBC-histogram in analysing anaemias as a rapid method in comparison to peripheral smear evaluation

Objective: From ages, Peripheral smear evaluation is being considered as the gold standard for evaluation of anaemias. Various other parameters have been assessed for their role as a substitute for peripheral smear. The present study evaluates Mean Corpuscular Volume (hereby referred to as MCV) and RBC-histograms if they are reliable as substitutes for the smear evaluation. Materials &amp; Methods: This is a prospective study conducted at the department of Clinical Pathology, Bhaskar Medical College. A total of 129 cases diagnosed as having anaemia were included in the study. Initially each case was analysed based upon the cell counter values, RBC indices &amp; RBC histogram. A detailed peripheral smear evaluation was done later for each case. The results were compared and analysed statistically. Sensitivity, Specificity and Positive, Negative predictive values were calculated. Results: Female cases outnumbered the male patients. Microcytic hypochromic anaemia was the most common type (61%); MCV was able to detect 75% of cases of macrocytic anaemia and 76% of cases of microcytic hypochromic anaemia. In contrast, 65% of cases of dimorphicanaemia had MCV values in the normal range. RBC-histograms were able to detect 63% of cases, 83% of cases with macrocytic anaemia, only 41% of patients had the characteristic double-peak on histograms. Conclusion: Though MCV and RBC histograms can detect most of the cases of macrocytic anaemia and microcytic anaemias with accuracy, a case with normal MCV and increased RDW requires a peripheral smear examination as the findings were variable in dimorphic anaemia.
Teaching and learning STEM disciplines

STEM disciplines (science, technology, engineering, mathematics), have the particular feature of being based on theoretical and practical skills. Learning in the laboratory naturally focuses on the student who must do or create something, alone or in a small group, while benefiting from the teacher's supervision to gain good practices. In this context, the project’s status at the end of the session enables the students to assess the quality of their works themselves. During the project’s development process, they face the resistance of the problem that requires a solution. They use their know-how, mobilize the knowledge acquired in all areas of life, and solicit the resources of their group to optimize cognitive resources. Discoveries during the process and the project’s completion, together with the repetition of the exercises, provide intense pleasure and boost self-esteem. The next challenge is to transpose the dynamics from the laboratory to the hall. This challenge is reinforced by the emergence of a new generation of students, for whom interacting with the Internet and virtual agents is a natural part of their lives. In this perspective, Whitehead's thinking remains a resource that reminds us of what is essential in the educational process. It allows us to preserve this essential in today’s societal change. We show that the educational process has two important dimensions. The first relates to a crucial event in the individuation process, namely, the advent of a phenomenon of synesthesia in the subject, in the form of an acute awareness of what is important to her or him. This event is a turning point in the student's life. The second relates to the methodology, which, in Whitehead's case, takes the form of the ternary rhythm of education. We illustrate these two dimensions in a biology teaching project we call inverted funnel. Inspired by Whiteheadian pedagogy, the project takes advantage of the dynamics of romance-precision-generalization, and we hope that it will contribute to the emergence of the turning point in the student. This event is the very starting point of the educational process, the one that leads to the very nature of the learner. Such watershed not only purports to determine the direction of her or his educational process, but also that of his or her entire life.

Cryptocurrencies and the Velocity of Money

The velocity of money is central to the quantity theory of money, which relates it to the general price level.While the theory motivated countless empirical studies to include velocity as price determinant, few find a significant relationship in the short or medium run.Since the velocity of money is generally unobservable, these studies were limited to using proxy variables, leaving it unclear whether the lacking relationship refutes the theory or the proxies.Cryptocurrencies on public blockchains, however, visibly record all transactions, and thus allow one to measure-rather than approximate -velocity.This paper evaluates most suggested proxies for velocity and also proposes a novel measurement approach.We introduce velocity measures for UTXO-based cryptocurrencies, focused on the subset of the money supply effectively in use for the processing of transactions.Our approach thus explicitly addresses the hybrid use of cryptocurrencies as media of exchange and as stores of value, a major distinction in recently-proposed theoretical pricing models.We show that each of the velocity estimators is approximated best by the simple ratio of on-chain transaction volume to total coin supply.Moreover, "coin days destroyed," if used as an approximation for velocity, shows considerable discrepancy from the other approaches.
Multi-Level Based Pedestrian Attribute Recognition

Pedestrian attribute recognition is a challenging task in computer vision due to its multi-label nature. Many algorithms have been proposed to solve this problem, but a better one is still needed. In this paper, we propose an effective and novel method. Given a multi-label pedestrian image, our Multi-level Aggregate Network (MAN) generates feature maps at three different levels and aggregates three predictions as final output. The proposed network is trained in an end-to-end manner with only image-level annotations. Extensive experiments are performed on the two largest pedestrian attribute datasets i.e. the PETA dataset and PA-100K dataset. We achieve state-of-the-art results without other information.

Beyond the Horizon of Media Ontologies

The article in brief presents all the main concepts and problems the authors of the issue are engaged in, also the article contains brief descriptions of the articles. New anthropological, sociological, philosophical, political projects suggested by posthumanist researchers and united by a critique of «Human» necessarily include a critique of the anthropomorphic perception of technology and media as a «natural» environment serving humanity. All articles examine new forms of such a new agency, which irrevocably change the subject and constantly crossing the dualistic boundaries as human/non-human, artificial/natural, cultural/natural.
