Climate Change and Global Warming: A Case Study from Puwa Watershed, Ilam District, Eastern Nepal

This study presents the climatic analysis and trends of Puwa watershed, located in eastern Nepal, within 26o51’- 27o5’ N and 87o50’- 87o56’ E with the total area of 158.9 sq. km. The trends in precipitation and temperature extremes were investigated and analyzed using, RClimDex (1.0) software. The results showed an increasing trend in the monthly maximum value of daily maximum temperature by 0.009 0 C and the monthly maximum value of the daily minimum temperature by 0.032 0 C per year, respectively. Days and nights were becoming warmer with a negative trend of occurring cool days and cool nights. The precipitation events showed an increasing trend in total and heavy precipitation events, very wet days and very heavy precipitation days indicating a probability to have more intense precipitation in the future. These climatic conditions due to climate change, unmanaged agriculture practices, steep slope, and the extreme precipitation event in the study area might be the triggering factors for natural hazards like landslides which have a direct negative effect to the people and infrastructure development of the area.
Open Multiparty Sessions.

Multiparty sessions are systems of concurrent processes, which allow several participants to communicate by sending and receiving messages. Their overall behaviour can be described by means of global types. Typable multiparty session enjoy lock-freedom. We look at multiparty sessions as open systems by a suitable definition of connection transforming compatible processes into gateways (forwarders). A relation resembling the standard subtyping relation for session types is used to formalise compatibility. We show that the session obtained by connection can be typed by manipulating the global types of the starting sessions. This allows us to prove that lock-freedom is preserved by connection.
Perception Of The Variation Of The Coda (S) In The Speech Community Of Rio de Janeiro: Accessing The Social Meaning Of The Back-Fricative Variant

This paper presents the results of a perception test that tried to access the social meaning of the variants of the variable coda (s) by speakers from two distinct social groups in the speech community of Rio de Janeiro (Melo, 2017).The tested variants were [ʃ/ʒ] and [h/ɦ].In this variety of Brazilian Portuguese, variants of coda include alveolar, post-alveolar, back fricatives (velar and glottal) and the absence of coda, as in me[z]mo, me[ʒ]mo, me[ɦ]mo, meØmo.Previous studies with production data (Callou, Leite, Moraes, 1996;Scherre, Macedo, 2000;Melo, 2012) have shown that post-alveolar variants are the most frequent among all variants and, specially, according to Callou and Brandão (2009), its prevalence, in the speech community, is the result of the implementation of a change.In Melo (2012Melo ( , 2017)), with data from middle class and low-class speakers, living in slums, measured by level of schooling and socioeconomic conditions, it was observed an ongoing change towards the velar/glottal variant among socially excluded low class speakers.In both samples, the velar/glottal variant tends to be used when the coda is followed by a voiced consonant, in word final position, in non-monosyllabic words, in unstressed syllables, with no morphological status, in informal styles and it is subject to lexical conditioning.The overall rate of back fricatives is higher among socially excluded low class speakers without
The role of working memory and task types in English listening comprehension of Slovenian year 6 students

In the master's thesis, we examined whether the working memory in mother and foreign tongue is related to students' achievements in listening comprehension in a foreign language or whether there are differences in students' achievements in listening comprehension in a foreign language with better and worse working memory in mother and foreign tongue, and whether the task type of listening comprehension in a foreign language has an impact on students' achievements. In the theoretical part, we define listening comprehension as an active process influenced by several factors and what needs to be considered when evaluating. We also focus on the structure of memory and the influence of working memory on learning a foreign language. Finally, we look at the impact of the task type on solving listening comprehension in a foreign language. Through the tests of working memory, short-term memory, and tests of listening comprehension, we examined the influence of working memory and task types on students' achievements of listening comprehension in a foreign language. A positive link was detected between the working memory in the mother tongue and the achievements in listening comprehension of English as a foreign language. However, it was not statistically significant. A possible reason for this could be that working memory in the mother tongue affects working memory in a foreign language only indirectly and that students can more easily memorize words if they have a more developed working memory in their mother tongue. The research has shown that there is a positive statistically important connection between a working memory in English as a foreign language and the achievements in the listening comprehension tests of English as a foreign language. A statistically significant difference emerged among students with better and students with worse working memory in English as a foreign language. Students with better working memory in a foreign language (English) averaged more points in listening tasks of multiple-choice and banked-gap fill. There were no statistically significant differences between students with better and students with worse working memory in their mother tongue when solving listening tasks of the multiple-choice and banked gap-fill. The results showed that students’ achievements in measuring listening comprehension in English as a foreign language differ depending on the task type that measures listening comprehension. Students achieved a higher number of points in multiple-choice tasks than in banked gap-fill tasks. Based on the findings of the research, it would be wise to consider how to overcome the differences between students with better and students with worse working memory and how to integrate different task types of listening comprehension in English as a foreign language into practice.
Imperative Program Synthesis from Answer Set Programs.

Our research concerns generating imperative programs from Answer Set Programming Specifications. ASP is highly declarative and is ideal for writing specifications. Further with negation-as-failure it is easy to succinctly represent combinatorial search problems. We are currently working on synthesizing imperative programs from ASP programs by turning the negation into useful computations. This opens up a novel way to synthesize programs from executable specifications.
특수학교에서 발생한 아동학대 신고사건에 대한 내러티브 연구

In order to recognize the awareness of special education teachers and parents about child abuse complaints that are likely to be controversial today, this study is based on the collection and analysis of narratives surrounding the reporting of child abuse in special schools. There were five participants in the study, including a teacher and the student's mother, and the materials recorded after the interview were derived using an analysis of narratives introduced by Brandin and Murphy. The research found that the students with intellectual disabilities were always active, and the teacher's intervention in the problem behavior was necessary, while the intervention of the problem behavior was mistaken for child abuse due to inappropriate treatment. Teachers and parents were especially concerned that the social atmosphere where reporting is emphasized in order to prevent the occurrence of school violence and protect the human rights of disabled children is also encouraging the school's educational neglect. On the basis of the research results, the special school teachers' expertise was strengthened, the creation of a consultative culture to strengthen the trust of teachers and parents, and the establishment of a cooperative culture, the positive action support committee, and the agreement to deal with the problem behavior of parents and teachers were discussed in the arbitration manual.

The purpose of this study is to find out the way of Constructing the Cooperative system expected by various subjects of community in the process of Maeul Learning Community. For this purpose, ‘A’ city is selected as a case city, and 10 activists by seven active areas(Maeul education, community building, social economy, lifelong education, school, general administration, educational administration) FGI was performed. The analysis revealed that the community should acquire a common view of the Maeul Learning Community's image and that the method of segmental business operation should be transformed into an integrated form. It also revealed the need for the establishment of a flexible Intermediary Organizations based on the community and the establishment of a dense network with members of the smallest units in the community. Finally, it was confirmed that the professionals with professional backgrounds in the region should continue to work in this structure. In the future, it was emphasized that when establishing strategies for the implementation of the Maeul learning community, a exploratory process based on communication with the parties in the community should be followed.
Evaluation Drinking Water of Some Plants and Some Types of Packaged Drinking Water and Imported in the Province of Karbala, the Efficiency of Markets

Water pollution is one of the major problems that affect human health, environmental systems and civilization development.Recent research shows that 71% of the world's population still suffers from contaminated water.Samples of drinking water were collected locally (Al-Waha, Al-Alaa and Nawar) as well as samples of drinking water imported (Japanese, French and Turkish).The samples were transferred to the laboratories of the directorate of the Holy Karbala environment.Some factors were measured such as pH, turbidity, electrical conductivity, total soluble solids, calcium, magnesium, sodium, potassium and chlorides.As well as the total count of bacteria and total coliform and fecal coliform.The results are compared with the Iraqi and international standards.Some parameters differed from the recorded readings on local and imported drinking water containers if the difference was clear while others were close to the recorded readings while others were identical to the readings recorded on the packages.Bacterial test were all within the limits allowed except total bacteria count was outside the specifications allowed by Iraq and the world for local and imported water samples of the two companies Alaa and the Japanese type.
Data Driven Radar Detection Models: A Comparison of Artificial Neural Networks and Non Parametric Density Estimators on Synthetically Generated Radar Data

A rapid and agile development in the field of autonomous driving requires in particular the use of simulation. In order to ensure functional safety even in consequence of sensory defects, measurement deviations, or an incorrect environment model it is necessary to implement sensor models. Various data driven sensor modeling approaches, which are of particular interest for car manufacturers, have been introduced. In this paper we compare the learning capabilities of two different modeling approaches: Deep generative networks and non parametric density estimators. For comparative purposes and to give a detailed and realistic insight of existing strengths and weaknesses of each approach we use an, beyond the current state of the art, algorithm to generate a synthetic dataset.
AN ANALYSIS OF STUDENTS’ WRITING SKILLS: FOCUS ON GRAMMATICAL AND DISCOURSE COMPETENCE

This paper presents an analysis of the students’ writing skills. It is believed that writing is a powerful device to reflect language structure and to promote language learning.  However, many students still experience difficulties in writing since it requires the appropriate grammatical and textual structures. Therefore, this study tries to analyse the students’ writing skills that will help them to improve their communicative competence. Data were obtained through documentation of students’ texts and interviews. The theories of Systemic Functional Linguistics, explanation text, and communicative competence were employed as the framework of the text analysis. The findings revealed the social function, the generic structure, the linguistic features, and also the grammatical and discourse competence in students’ explanation texts. It was concluded that the students perceived the importance of the use of correct grammar and textual structure in their writing. Regarding some grammatical mistakes in students’ explanation texts, it is recommended that teacher give explicit teaching and more exercises to them so that the students’ communicative competence can be developed.

GROWTH 수업 모형의 적용을 통한 영어쓰기 연구: 중학교 영어 쓰기 활동을 중심으로

The purpose of this study is to prove the effects of a learning model on the perception and self-efficiency of the middle school students towards English writing. The learning model, entitled as “GROWTH”, was designed, theoretically based on “Question-centered Havruta” and “Process-centered Writing Approach”. It combined three stages: (1) After reading activities: partner and group-based discussion on the texts which include words, grammatical structures, communicative functions, and topics carefully selected in terms of national curriculum (2) Pre-writing activities: brainstorming and discussion before writing essays or letters of which the topics are extended from the texts (3) Process-centered writing activities including first drafts, feedback from a teacher or colleagues, and final drafts. From March to November of 2017, the learning model was applied to the 54 third graders of a middle school located in the north-western part of Seoul. Before and after the implementation of the learning model, pre- and post-test was done on the same group of the students. The results show the “GROWTH” learning model imposed a positive effect on the students’ perception on the partner and group-based discussion or activities and improved their self-efficiency towards English writing. Also, it gave the students the awareness of the importance of the attempts at English writing and continuous practice. Therefore, this research implies the need for the English writing activities to be more actively attempted in the English learning environments of Korea as a part of process-centered assessment.
NOMINAL LEXEMES IN DERIVATIONAL REDUPLICATION OF MANDARIN

Reduplication is a one of the creative ways in Mandarin. People usually reduplicate to express more deep lexical meaning or semantic meaning vividly. Reduplication is a process of forming new words by repeating an entire free morpheme (total reduplication) or part of it (partial reduplication). Morphologically, functions of Chinese reduplication may place categorically within the derivational domain of lexemes. In fact, whereas derivation typically forms new lexemes and can be category changing, reduplication often conveys values typically found in the inflectional domain.  Using the M.D.S Simatupang context-free approach, this study clarifies various meanings of Chinese reduplication, then based on word membership tests and lexical decomposition tests as proposed by J.W.M Verhaar, this study analyzes derivational reduplication and inflectional reduplication in Mandarin.  This research achieves shed new light on the reduplicative processes. As result, in nominal domain, reduplication gives as a result plural noun. In derivational domain, nominal lexeme in reduplication has flexible distribution of lexical items.

Goodness of Fit Test For Wrapped Normal Distribution

One of the main difficulties in any statistical method is whether the data could have actually been drawn from that fitted distribution or not. To extend in circular data, it is necessary to consider nature feature of this data. The Wrapped Normal and Von Mises are two most important and famous distributions in circular. Based on the auther’s knowledge, there is no Goodness-of-Fit test for Wrapped Normal. To enhance this issue, in this paper, we present an appropriate test and compare its performance based on simulation study.
User Interface (UI) Discovery Application To Measure Query Accuracy On Interface Repository

SaaS (Software as a Service) application has many architecture layers, those are: data layer, service layer, process layer, and UI layer. UI layer is a GUI layer which has function to prepare the interface both system and user receiving input from user and show back to user. This research tells about how to build user interface (UI) discovery as a part of software based on SaaS. The aim of this application is to make easier user for finding user interface which appropriate needed configuration. This UI discovery application is developed by using ontology theory, those are RDF map and query SPARQL. The working way of UI discovery is entering the keywords which contain form name, or component details needed. UI discovery will search based on the entering keywords automatically. The trials will use two search models, those are data search and detail search. The calculation result of those both trials are from recall score 95%, accuracy score 100%, and precision score with different percentage. The percentage of data search model is 95%, while on detail search model is 90%. Those differences found because of some of irrelevant document found on detail search and netted query. Therefore, on data search shows that the result is more relevant and shows the better of system's prosperity. Keywords : Software as a service; discovery; query accuracy; interface repository

THE SUBTITLING STRATEGIES USED IN INDONESIAN FILM

The social phenomena can be represented through film providing images, soundtrack, voice- over, dance, and some art such as theatrical dan fine art. The Indonesian film played in XXI since 2017 must have English subtitling because the viewers nowadays are not only Indonesian people but also foreigner. The film subtitling is challenging because it is different from the other translation medium. A subtitler requires an appropriate translation strategy. Thus, this study aims to explore the subtitling strategies used in Indonesian film. The approach employed was qualitative with content analysis as a research design. The data used was English subtitling of ‘A Man Called Ahok’ film. The result showed that the dominant substitiling strategies used were repetition indicating the literal translation and addition strategy showing more information given. Respectively, transmutation and detraction strategies are also employed. Former indicated some changes in internal order such as lexical change, passive to active, etc. The latter showed deletion or condension unnecessary or inrelevant information. Substitution strategy is the least used in subtitling which it indicates lack of pharaprasing. This study offers the theoretical and practical contribution on subtitiling strategies especially from Bahasa Indonesia to English. Keywords : Film, audiovisual translation, subtitling, translation strategies.
