Identifying the Original Source of Megalithic Stones in Tambunan Using Spectral Signature Technique
Authors: Eboy Oliver Valentine , Sieng Kong Teck , Kemarau Ricky Anak
Published: October 2024

Megalithic stones are a remnant of the ancient people. An intriguing megalithic stone legacy ought to emphasize the context in which it fits. Consequently, it is necessary to ascertain each megalithic stone’s historical context. This is significant for the archaeologist to obtain true and valid information. In Tambunan, there are numerous myths about megalithic stones. As a result, it is impossible to verify the story’s validity. These days, remote sensing has emerged as a crucial technical instrument for archaeologists to gather spatial data in both broad and localized locations. Prior research has demonstrated the efficacy of remote sensing in identifying archaeological site remnants. Nevertheless, there have never been any investigations utilizing remote sensing in relation to small-sized megalithic stones. Thus, this study employs spectral signature techniques and remote sensing to identify the original source of the megalithic stones discovered in Tambunan. This study carries out the spectral signature of megalithic stones in Tambunan using Sentinel-2A satellite image data with a 5-meter resolution using the SNAP application. Before that, the coordinates and measurements for each megalithic stone were obtained from the ground. The spectral signature of all the megalithic stones was then compared with the spectral signature of the stones near the river or near the hill. The study’s findings demonstrate that the spectral signature of the megalithic stones in question is identical to the stone found in the river near its location. As a result, this study was successful in providing scientific evidence that the river is the source of the megalithic stones in Tambunan, despite the stones’ considerable distance from their site.
The Use of Probability and Edge Analysis to Solve the Multi-Period Degree Constrained Minimum Spanning Tree Problem
Authors: Wamiliana  , Junaidi Akmal , Gamal Mohammad Danil Hendry , Thamrin Taqwan
Published: October 2024

The goal of the Multiperiod Degree Constrained Minimum Spanning Tree (MPDCMST) problem is to determine the smallest weight-spanning tree that satisfies the vertex installation criterion for each period and maintains the degree requirement in each vertex. This issue emerges as a network connection problem. The degree requirement indicates the reliability of each vertex, and the vertex connection/installation requirement denotes the priority vertices that must be inserted in the network within a specific time frame. The installation is split up into multiple phases/stages. This is because of various considerations such as severe weather, budgetary limitations, etc. In this research, two algorithms for solving the MPDCMST using probability hybridized with Prim’s modification, and edge analysis are proposed. The algorithms are implemented on the undirected complete graph of orders 10 to 100. The solutions are compared with some heuristics which are already in the literature. The results show that the proposed algorithms perform better.

The Impact of Urban and Rural Education Gap on Student Achievement Differences
Authors: Fu Weiping , Bin Mohamed Hashim Abdul Talib
Published: October 2024

With our country’s social development, the gap between urban and rural education has become increasingly obvious, especially the difference in student achievement. This study aims to explore the impact of the urban-rural education gap on student achievement. The study adopts a quantitative analysis method to collect and analyze the academic performance, learning resources, and social resources of urban and rural students. The results show that the unbalanced distribution of educational resources in urban and rural areas is the key factor leading to the gap in students’ achievement. For example, urban education resources are abundant while rural education resources are relatively scarce. At the same time, the difference in social environment and family economic status also have a significant impact on student achievement. The differences between urban and rural areas, particularly in terms of family economic conditions and their ability to invest in education, further widen the gap between urban and rural education. The results of this study can provide a reference for reducing the gap between urban and rural education and improving the academic performance of rural students. A fair education policy is essential to narrow the gap between urban and rural education resources distribution, so as to improve the equality of education in society.

Phase shifter intelligent reflective surface design for 2.4 GHz
Authors: Tekkol Yasin Can , Canbilen Ayşe Elif
Published: October 2024

In this study, an intelligent reflective surface (IRS) design consisting of a 3x4 patch surface that intentionally changes the phase angles of incoming signals for the 2.4 GHz operating frequency is presented. In the design of this IRS, FR-4 is chosen as the dielectric material, and copper is used to create both the reflecting elements and the ground plane. Phase shifting characteristic is achieved by using varactor diodes on the designed two-dimensional surface. In order to test the behaviour of the IRS, a horn antenna is also designed to be used as a source with the ANSYS HFSS (v21) program. The obtained results are presented in terms of return loss and gain values of the IRS. The results of the simulations reveal that the phase angles of the incoming signals can be adjusted as expected by changing the capacity values of the varactor diodes modelled by their equivalent circuits on the IRS.

CONTOURS OF JURISDICTION UNDER INDIAN ARBITRATION ACT
Authors: Pratap Mayank , Kavita
Published: October 2024

The Arbitration Act, 1940 had no provision which allowed the Arbitral Tribunal to make a decision on its own jurisdiction like Section 16 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996 the Arbitral Tribunal has been granted the power to make a ruling on its own jurisdiction. Section 16 (1) of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act states that the Arbitral Tribunal may rule on its own jurisdiction, including ruling on any objection with respect to the existence or validity of the arbitration agreement. The legislative intent underlying the 1996 Act is to minimise judicial intervention in the arbitral process and nominate the arbitrator without wasting time, leaving all contentious issues to be decided by the arbitral tribunal itself Section 16 of the Arbitration and Conciliation Act incorporates the principle of "Compétence-Compétence" or "Compétence de la recognized", is a doctrine that empowers an arbitral tribunal to rule on its own jurisdiction, including ruling on any objection with respect to the existence or validity of the arbitration agreement. It is closely related to rules regarding the allocation of jurisdictional competence between arbitral tribunals and national Courts and to rules concerning the nature and timing of judicial consideration of challenges to an arbitral tribunal’s jurisdiction. The doctrine empowers the arbitrators to decide on their own jurisdiction. The ruling passed in SBP & Co. vs. Patel Engineering Ltd. chipped away the importance of the Kompetenze-Kompetenze principle incorporated in Section 16 consequently, the 2015 Amendment inserted Section 11(6A) in order to restrict the powers of the courts to merely examining the existing of an arbitration agreement. The 2019 Amendment omitted Section 11(6A). now after coming of so many decisions regarding this matter the scope and area of jurisdiction of arbitral tribunal has opened many wings of debate and this chapter is an attempt to discuss all these dimensions

Authors: Patil Shubhada S.
Published: October 2024

This paper presents a comprehensive statistical analysis of dilapidated and dangerous buildings across urban wards in India, focusing on optimising the allocation of Transferable Development Rights (TDR) for effective urban redevelopment. By integrating empirical data on building conditions, urban density, and redevelopment patterns, the study develops a dynamic framework that applies advanced statistical models to evaluate the efficiency of TDR allocations in high-risk zones. The research addresses critical issues of liquidity constraints, TDR hoarding, and inefficient redevelopment processes, proposing a refined mechanism for optimising TDR distribution through data-driven strategies. The proposed model balances redevelopment incentives with environmental and infrastructural sustainability by incorporating real-time market dynamics and environmental cost factors into TDR pricing. This study also includes case studies on slum redevelopment and real estate liquidity, offering actionable insights for policymakers to deploy TDR exchanges to accelerate urban regeneration. The findings contribute to the advancement of sustainable urban growth by offering a novel approach to resolving redevelopment inefficiencies while maintaining ecological balance.
ALGORITHMIC GOVERNANCE IN THE REAL ESTATE AND TDR EXCHANGE OF INDIA: A STATISTICAL FRAMEWORK FOR REGULATING URBAN INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT
Authors: Patil Shubhada Subhash
Published: October 2024

This paper presents a mathematical framework for algorithmic governance within the context of the Real Estate and Transferable Development Rights (TDR) Exchange of India, addressing the challenges of urban infrastructure development. The model incorporates key components such as dynamic pricing, compliance enforcement, and optimal resource allocation, which are designed to regulate TDR transactions efficiently, transparently, and sustainably. By developing a dynamic pricing mechanism that adapts to market demand, supply, compliance with regulations, and environmental sustainability factors, this framework ensures that TDRs are allocated to areas with the highest redevelopment potential.The framework integrates regulatory enforcement mechanisms that monitor adherence to urban planning regulations and impose dynamic penalties on non-compliance. The pricing model adjusts based on the demand-supply gap and local environmental constraints, encouraging sustainable urban growth. The paper also explores a multi-objective optimization approach to TDR allocation, ensuring that redevelopment potential is maximized while maintaining environmental thresholds. The proposed algorithmic model provides a scalable solution to urban infrastructure challenges, promoting balanced growth and sustainable resource utilization in Indian cities.

In the current era, many environmentally friendly renewable energy sources have been developed, such as the development of DSSC (Dye Sensitized Solar Cells). DSSC is a technology that utilizes colored materials sourced from nature which are used as absorbers of sunlight energy to be converted into electrical energy. In this research, the synthesis and characterization of organic material from kitolod leaves as DSSC will be carried out. Kitolod leaves (Hippobroma longifora) are wild plants that usually grow in home gardens and rice fields. Kitolod leaves which have chlorophyll can support the absorption of sunlight if applied as a sensitizer in DSSC. The methods that will be used in this research are making TiO2 paste, dye solution preparation, electrolyte solution preparation, DSSC fabrication, testing and characterization. The tests that will be carried out are testing the TiO2 layer, dye absorption, and electric current. Meanwhile, the characterization that will be carried out is dye absorption using UV-Vis, and electric current using a potentiometer. From the results of light absorption shows that when the wavelength is 500 nm or the green light spectrum, the maximum light absorption by the chlorophyll of kitolod leaves is 1.78 (a.u.). The maximum voltage (Vm) and maximum current (Im) in daylight lamps have greater values ​​compared to warm white lamps. The highest efficiency of the solar light source is shown when the air mass is 1.5 (08.30-08.40). The time of DSSC immersion in dye also influences the resulting of Vm and Im values ​​which can be shown in that the Vm and Im values ​​of DSSC 2 (30 minutes) are greater than those of DSSC 1 (10 minutes). The results of open circuit voltage (Voc) and the short circuit current (Isc) in this research still need to be improved to produce better efficiency.

This study aims to analyze the impact of self-efficacy on student learning outcomes on electromagnetic induction material. This research takes the type of descriptive quantitative research, a method that focuses on analyzing numerical data using statistical methods. It was conducted at MA Ali Maksum Yogyakarta with the research subjects of XII MIPA class students totaling 30 respondents. Data collection techniques using cognitive tests and self-efficacy questionnaires assisted by Google Form applications. The results showed that the hypothesis can be accepted, namely there is a correlation between the level of self-efficacy and the results of student learning tests even though the correlation found has a weak category because it only has a share of 8.1%. This shows that the domain of student confidence, especially in terms of solving problems is still at a low level so that there is a tendency for students to solve problems based on memorizing equations. The existence of limitations in conducting research limits it in uncovering other aspects outside of self-efficacy in obtaining learning outcomes. Through the information obtained that self-efficacy on learning outcomes, teachers can apply a varied atmosphere, model, and learning process to optimize student potential which will have an impact on student learning outcomes.

Environmental pollution due to urea can negatively impact the environment and its surroundings. Efforts to prevent environmental pollution include encapsulating urea made of chitosan/NaTPP/Ca, which aims to determine its physical and chemical properties. This study crosslinks chitosan 1.66%, with NaTPP 3.33%, CaO, with variations in the addition of urea concentrations of 0.05%, 0.1%, 0.15%, 0.2%, and 0.25%. The results of FTIR characterization showed that there were functional groups OH-, C-H, Ca-O, NH, and P=O. The membrane weight yield ranges from 0.14-0.16 grams, while the average membrane thickness is 0.15-0.35 mm. The water absorption test is 1.86-2.64%, and the membrane porosity result is 0.91-2,25%. This shows that the membrane with a base material of 1.66% chitosan and 3.33% NaTPP is the best.

Ghee is one of the important fat sources in our diet. The ghee loses its quality due to increased rancidity. Hence, a rapid grading method is required in the industry since the quality of the ghee varies according to its storage time in the market. The present study aimed to develop the rapid grading method using FT-NIR spectroscopy. The quality of the ghee was graded with two parameters mainly moisture and FFA. The FFA and moisture content of the ghee was analyzed with the chemical method, and it was used to develop the spectra for grading of ghee. The spectra of the samples were obtained and the model was calibrated and validated. The performance of the model was analyzed by R2 and RMSEcv.The coefficient of determination (R2) was > 95 % for moisture and FFA showed higher accuracy. The Residual Predictive Deviation(RPD) of the model was 5.71 and 6.36 for moisture and FFA, respectively which is greater than 3 showed the excellence of prediction. The time taken for the FT-NIR to analyze the moisture and FFA of the unknown sample was 25 s. The FT-NIR was useful for rapid quality grading of ghee.
