Exploring the Challenges of Forensic Technology in Responding to Identity Document Theft in Polokwane Policing Area, South Africa

This study explores the challenges of forensic technology in responding to Identity Document (ID) theft as an approach used by the South African Police Service (SAPS) in the Polokwane policing area. This study further evaluates the availability of technological and conventional resources to respond to this scourge, as well as the capabilities of the SAPS to utilise the available [lack of forensic technology] resources to respond best to ID theft. This was done by analysing preventative measures, associated with these challenges, as faced by SAPS and other relevant stakeholders on responding to this crime in the Polokwane Central Business District (CBD), Bendor Park, and Flora Park, coupled with the number of stores situated in the business sectors of these selected areas. For this study, the researchers adopted a quantitative research approach with 90 respondents in the identified areas. This study established that the secretive nature of ID theft makes it difficult for the relevant stakeholders (Not limited to the local SAPS, Businesses, and Public members as presented by this study) to effectively respond to this scourge. Negatively, the forefront gatekeepers to respond to this crime are mainly SAPS Constables with less training to investigates ID theft properly. Thus, find themselves being more reactive than proactive, which contributes to the difficulty of locating potential perpetrators in the process of conventional investigations applications. Furthermore, ID thieves utilise advanced technological resources (I.e. Computer hacking software), as opposed to SAPS which does not have systems nor capacity to effectively respond to this crime. The limited resources at the disposal of SAPS also renders its effort in responding to this crime inadequate. For recommendations; significant emphases should be directed on the promotion of public awareness through public education for the use of forensic technology as an investigative and identification tool of responding to ID theft. The intensive training of SAPS officials and inter-governmental corroboration between SAPS, Department of Home Affairs (DHA), and other relevant stakeholders in understanding this technology are highly advised.
Optimization Tool of Website for Smart Phone

In this paper the optimization tool of website for smart phone is presented. Internet is a part of everyday life in the last years. People visit websites with different devices. Many methods serve to properly display and optimize web content. These methods are constantly being improved to provide convenient viewing of Internet content. We've created our own app based on methods designed to display web content correctly. The app contains an algorithm for identifying the main content of a web page and then extracting text and images from it. The goal of the algorithm is to remove redundant information from the webpage and create a new view that contains only useful information. The document created in this way can be further used in web content viewing applications with minimized data transfer or as direct printing of the main web page content without unnecessary data.

Gvscapes: mobilising the scavenger hunt for english language learning

When the world is at our fingertips, the new generation of students appear to be more technology driven towards electronic devices usage in their daily life. The smartphones and smart electronic devices are fast improving with the advancement of the new generation of android devices. In addition, some devices are built specifically for Augmented Reality (AR). The 21st century learning approach advocates the integration of technology for more interactive teaching and learning activities. Thus, this research had developed a mobile AR application which integrated the android-based application to assist the teaching and learning activities in University Malaysia Sabah (UMS). UMS students are obligatory to take the English language courses from the Centre for the Promotion of Knowledge and Language Learning (CPKLL). However, the current challenges in the English language classrooms are students’ lack of interest in conventional teaching and learning activities as well as limited attention span during lessons. In view of this, the gamification element is injected inside the classroom by utilising a creative method to the existing conventional scavenger hunt game. The implementation of an android application with AR aptitude allows the students to play educational quizzes. The two-fold objectives of this project included: (1) developing an android-based fun quiz application with AR technology which was location-based so students could experience interactive learning environment; and (2) investigating the implementation of this mobile application during English lessons. Iterative methodology was employed in this research which comprised planning, analysis, design, implementation, testing phase, deployment and follows next iteration (if needed). The findings suggested that students were able to answer the AR quizzes at several locations around UMS and provided the lecturers with real time access to the results. However, there were some identified disadvantages such as safety hazards and contents. It is hoped that GVScapes will provide more interactive and learning activities via gamification.

Major and trace element geochemical analysis of norites in the Hakefjorden Complex to constrain magma source and magma plumbing systems

Major and trace element data taken from plagioclase crystals from anorthosites and related rock units in the Hakefjorden Complex located off the west coast of Sweden were investigated for the purposes of constraining magma chamber processes and the source of the magma. Although the anorthosite units were completely homogenous in regards to its chemistry, the plagioclase in the associated norite and ilmenite-leuconorite units showed substantial variation. The zoning profiles of the aforementioned plagioclase units showed sudden increases in Sr in the rims of the plagioclase. These patterns are likely to be caused by replenishment of the magma via recharge events. Peaks in An content coincide with patchy disequilibrium textures at the rims of the crystals - these are linked to either decompression via polybaric evolution of the magma chamber, magma recharge events or a combination of both. The peaks in trace element concentrations also coincide with the disequilibrium textures, which provide evidence that the recharge events are linked to the ascent of the magma chamber. The evidence of recharge events and the homogenous nature of the 87Sr/86Sr zoning profiles as indicated by Glomme (2015) suggest that a mantle derived source with crustal contamination is unlikely, and instead favours a lower crustal magma source.

XtremDew: a platform for cooperative tasks and data schedulers

With the emergence of big data, data scheduling is becoming an important field of research in distributed computing. Software data scheduler often relies on data management policies that can be defined by the user and provide high level features. Such advanced features become necessary nowadays to execute data intensive applications, and this implies that data and task schedulers should cooperate closely to address the large data processing issue and ensure an optimal distribution of data intensive applications. In this paper, we propose XtremDew, the data and task cooperative scheduler platform. We deal with the distribution of the optical character recognition (OCR) on large scale. We show, in particular, the benefit of the focus on data scheduling to distribute our OCR application. We build the data driven distributing platform by combining two existing middleware: BitDew, as the data scheduler, and XtremWeb-HEP, as the task scheduler. Taking advantage of both middlewares, XtremDew provides new features. To evaluate the efficiency of our approach, we compare different strategies of scheduling tasks and data and we present several scenarios that illustrate the benefits of using XtremDew to execute data-intensive applications.

Similar to the generalized matching pursuit (GMP) for multi-streamer multimeasurement data, we propose a novel approach that assumes that the upgoing wavefield is sparse in the spatial slowness domain. The proposed approach, however, uses a multifrequency greedy approach to alleviate the ambiguity problem posed by single-streamer acquisition. The approach can handle the noise by weighting the contribution of multimeasurement crossline Vyand vertical velocity Vz measurements according to their signal-to-noise ratio. Results show that the proposed approach can achieve similar 3D deghosting quality to GMP at a reduced cost.Presentation Date: Wednesday, October 14, 2020Session Start Time: 1:50 PMPresentation Time: 2:15 PMLocation: Poster Station 13Presentation Type: PosterKeywords: broadband, 3D, multicomponentPermalink: https://doi.org/10.1190/segam2020-3417955.1FiguresReferencesRelatedDetails SEG Technical Program Expanded Abstracts 2020ISSN (print):1052-3812 ISSN (online):1949-4645Copyright: 2020 Pages: 3887 publication data© 2020 Published in electronic format with permission by the Society of Exploration GeophysicistsPublisher:Society of Exploration Geophysicists HistoryPublished Online: 30 Sep 2020 CITATION INFORMATION Yousif Kamil and Massimiliano Vassallo, (2020), "3D deghosting using single-streamer multimeasurement data," SEG Technical Program Expanded Abstracts : 3299-3303. https://doi.org/10.1190/segam2020-3417955.1 Plain-Language Summary Keywordsbroadband3DmulticomponentPDF DownloadLoading ...

Comparative Study of Privacy Preservation of Data in Hybrid Cloud of Combined Clustering and Geometric Data Perturbation Approach and Hybrid Ant Colony Optimization and Gravitational Search Algorithm

Cloud computing services provide scalable IT infrastructural facilities to support the processing of various types of big data applications in sectors like health care and other businesses. Data sets like electronic health records contain private and sensitive information resulting in possible privacy issues. A simple method to facilitate data privacy preservation is to anonymize data through generalization to satisfy a given privacy model. However, majority of the existing privacy-preserving methods devised to small-scale data sets turn out to be inadequate in the case big data, due to their limitations or poor scalability. In this paper, two different approaches are discussed and their results are compared with the existing respective methods of Privacy Preservation of Health-care Data in the context of hybrid cloud. These two different approaches are: 1. A Combined Clustering and Geometric Data Perturbation Approach for Enriching Privacy Preservation of Health-care Data in Hybrid Clouds and 2. Privacy Preservation of Health-care Data in Hybrid Cloud Using a Hybrid Meta-heuristics-based Sanitization Approach. This paper focuses on less-known aspects of side effects of the CCGDP approach which was addressed by ACOGSA approach.
A short introduction to semiotics

Semiotics is the academic field dedicated to the study of signs. A sign (for example, the word “ship”) may be recognized by the presence of its constituent parts, which in semiotic theories based on Saussure’s, at least, are the signifier (the container, the vehicle form: the letters s-h-i-p) and the signified (the meaning or content; the notion conveyed by the signifier: ‘a vessel of considerable size for deepwater navigation’). With these concepts, general semiotics allows us to describe any system of signs: texts, images, performances, multimedia productions, traffic signals, fashion, daily life, etc. There are specific semiotic systems (for text, images, multimedia, and so on) that take into account the specifics of each system of signs. This chapter is an overview of general semiotics. In the first section, we define the field of semiotics and the concept of the sign and enumerate the basic concepts and the names of some of the better-known theorists. Then, by analysing a seemingly innocuous object, the traffic signal, we illustrate some concepts of general semiotics – notions such as sender/receiver, sending/transmitting/receiving, channel, context, referent, system, code, redundancy, noise, paradigm/syntagm, margin of safety, seme, isotopy, polysemy/homonymy/synonymy, symbolic/semi-symbolic/semiotic relationships and systems, arbitrary/conventional signs, contiguous/noncontiguous signs, single/repeated signs, successive/simultaneous signs, actualized/virtualized signs, contrast, and so forth.
If Building Commitment for Knowledge-Based Decision to Create Quality Management : The Role of Transformational Leadership in Higher Education Governance Good in Developing Countries: A Literature Review

This paper explores, especially through a systematic literature review, the role of transformational leadership in universities in developing countries in relation to university governance. This paper argues that this role needs to be explored because transformative leadership of tertiary institutions in developing countries is still little researched and provides debate with local cultural perspectives. This paper reviews the Google Scholar database, SAGE journals, Taylor and Francis journals, and Emerald journals with the keywords "Transformational leadership" AND "higher education". Articles selected by inclusion criteria are carried out in developing countries, conducted between 2016-2020, and are limited to only the 2 7 most relevant articles. Inthis article, as many as 27 research results were analyzed qualitatively. Three main themes specifically emerge as the role of transformational leadership in universities in developing countries. This role includes: as a driver and provider of infrastructure for participatory knowledge-based decision making, a drive for stakeholder commitment to carry it out, and a guarantor of quality-based higher education governance. Keywords : transformational leadership, universities, developing countries, decision making, organizational commitment, quality management DOI: 10.7176/PPAR/10-9-02 Publication date: September 30 th 2020
Global Economic Impact Resulting from COVID-19

The novel coronavirus COVID-19 has acted as an exogenous shock with cascading negative effects throughout the global economy. Numerous exhaustive measurements, models, and forecasts of the pandemic have been produced by scholars and journalists. This chapter begins with a review of the primary epidemiological and economic models, along with some of the global impacts to date. The chapter then examines three additional economic perspectives, describing insights from behavioral, institutional, and normative economics that can be useful in understanding and responding to the pandemic. Beyond documenting the global impact, the chapter provides economic insights into designing incentives, creating personal risk budgets, implementing policies, and addressing ethical and moral concerns in rebuilding and reshaping the global economy.

Privacy and data balkanization: circumventing the barriers

The rapid growth in digital data forms the basis for a wide range of new services and research, e.g., large-scale medical studies. At the same time, increasingly restrictive privacy concerns and laws are leading to significant overhead in arranging for sharing or combining different data sets to obtain these benefits. For new applications, where the benefit of combined data is not yet clear, this overhead can inhibit organizations from even trying to determine whether they can mutually benefit from sharing their data. In this paper, we discuss techniques to overcome this difficulty by employing private information transfer to determine whether there is a benefit from sharing data and whether there is room to negotiate acceptable prices. These techniques involve cryptographic protocols. While currently considered secure, these protocols are potentially vulnerable to the development of quantum technology, particularly for ensuring privacy over significant periods of time into the future. To mitigate this concern, we describe how developments in practical quantum technology can improve the security of these protocols.
ANALYSIS OF SVM PARAMETRIZATION IN THE CLASSIFICATION OF MAMMOGRAPHIC TEXTURE IMAGES

Studies indicate that breast density is related to the risk of developing cancer since dense breasttissue can hide lesions, causing cancer to be detected at later stages. In this paper we classication method using support vector machines (SVM) associated to data reduction techniques to classify mammographic texture. An analysis of the parameters that influence the efectiveness of texture classication is also provided. Experiments were conducted on a set of 4,000 mammographic exams from which regions of interest representing the most signicantly part of the texture of the breast tissue were extracted. Compared to other quantitative results found in the literature, the proposed multi-class SVM method using the radial basis function kernel and tuned parameters proved to be superior while classifying mammographic texture, reaching up to 99% of precision for 10% of recall.
