Adverse Outcome Pathways (AOPs) have been proposed to facilitate mechanistic understanding of interactions of chemicals/materials with biological systems. Each AOP starts with a molecular initiating event (MIE) and possibly ends with adverse outcome(s) (AOs) via a series of key events (KEs). So far, the interaction of engineered nanomaterials (ENMs) with biomolecules, biomembranes, cells, and biological structures, in general, is not yet fully elucidated yet. There is also a huge lack of information on which AOPs are ENMs-relevant or -specific, despite numerous published data on toxicological endpoints they trigger, such as oxidative stress and inflammation. We propose to integrate related data and knowledge recently collected. Our approach combines the annotation of nanomaterials and their MIEs with ontology annotation to demonstrate how we can then query AOPs and biological pathway information for these materials. We conclude that a FAIR (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable) representation of the ENM-MIE knowledge simplifies integration with other knowledge.

Photoactive chromium(III) complexes saw a conceptual breakthrough with the discovery of the prototypical molecular ruby, mer-[Cr(ddpd)2]3+ (ddpd = N,N’-dimethyl-N,N’-dipyridin-2-ylpyridine-2,6-diamine), that shows intense long-lived near-infrared (NIR) phosphorescence from metal-centered spin-flip states. In contrast to the numerous studies on chromium(III) photophysics, only ten luminescent molybdenum(III) complexes have been reported so far. Here, we present the synthesis and characterization of mer-MoX3(ddpd) (1: X = Cl, 2: X = Br) and cisfac-[Mo(ddpd)2]3+ (cisfac-[3]3+), an isomeric heavy homolog of the prototypical molecular ruby. For cisfac-[3]3+, we found strong zero-field splitting using magnetic susceptibility measurements and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. Electronic spectra covering the spin-forbidden transitions show that the spin-flip states in mer-1, mer-2 and cisfac-[3]3+ are much lower in energy than in comparable chromium(III) compounds. While all three complexes show weak spin-flip phosphorescence in the NIR-II, the emission of cisfac-[3]3+ peaking at 1550 nm is particularly low in energy. Femtosecond-transient absorption spectroscopy reveals a short excited state lifetime of 1.4 ns, six orders of magnitude shorter than that of mer-[Cr(ddpd)2]3+. Using density functional theory and ab initio multi-reference calculations, we break down the reasons for this disparity, and derive principles for the design of future stable photoactive molybdenum(III) complexes.

Synthetic, structural, and computational approaches were used to solve the puzzle as to how a phenolic nonsteroidal estrogen 1 with only a single H-bond to its receptor was more potent than an isomer 2 which formed an intricate network of H-bonds. Synthesis of a series of substituted phenols revealed that pKa was not a determinant of estrogenic activity. First-principles calculation also failed to explain the difference in activity of 1 and 2. Molecular dynamics revealed that 1 formed a more stable receptor complex compared to 2, which may explain its increased activity despite forming fewer apparent H-bonds with the protein.
Why Deep Models Often Cannot Beat Non-deep Counterparts on Molecular Property Prediction?

Published: July 2023

Molecular property prediction (MPP) is a crucial task in the drug discovery pipeline, which has recently gained considerable attention thanks to advances in deep neural networks. However, recent research has revealed that deep models struggle to beat traditional non-deep ones on MPP. In this study, we benchmark 12 representative models (3 non-deep models and 9 deep models) on 14 molecule datasets. Through the most comprehensive study to date, we make the following key observations: \textbf{(\romannumeral 1)} Deep models are generally unable to outperform non-deep ones; \textbf{(\romannumeral 2)} The failure of deep models on MPP cannot be solely attributed to the small size of molecular datasets. What matters is the irregular molecule data pattern; \textbf{(\romannumeral 3)} In particular, tree models using molecular fingerprints as inputs tend to perform better than other competitors. Furthermore, we conduct extensive empirical investigations into the unique patterns of molecule data and inductive biases of various models underlying these phenomena.
The role of Shiite clerics during the Safavid state (1501-1722).
Authors: Ali Jafar , Osman Nazim
Published: July 2023

This study deals with the political situation in Iran during the Safavid authority and the declaration of Shiism doctrine as the official state religion by Shah Ismael I (1501-1524). It presents how the Shiism was formed and strengthened, and also deals with the appearance of Shia religious men in the political and social fields from the declaration of the Safavid state until the end of their authority. Additionally, the religious changes and the relations of the Safavid rulers with religious men are investigated.The religious policy of Shah Tahmasp I (1524-1577) manifested in bringing a great number of scientists and Shia religious men from the Arab homeland to Iran. The Shah used those religious men in writing and publishing Shia jurisprudence books and expanding the Shiism. The fundamentals of Shiism was written during the reign of this Shah, and the authority of religious men reached the top. Besides, a great number of posts and religious titles were created at the reign of Shah Tahmasp. Another part of this study tackled the  arrival of Ismael II (1576-1577)  and his policy to weaken the authority of Shia religious men, and pay attention to the Sunni doctrine.Moreover, the study presented the religious policy of Shah Abbas the Great (1587-1622), who was the strongest Safavid Shah, and his attempt to remove the Qizal- Bash Sufis. He also reduced the political role of religious men and tried to establish a strong authority away from religious men. The authority of the religious men increased after Shah Abbas the Great, especially at the final reign of the Safavid authority at the reign of Hussein Al-Safawi (1694-1722). During that period, the Safavid state was completely controlled by religious men. At the reign of Shah Hussien, the Safavid authority became under the control of Mala (Mahmoud Baqir Majlisi) , who practiced a great deal of violence against other religions, especially the Sunni and Zaradashti religions.The degree and posts of religious men, their social position,  class and their influence on the Iranian society will be investigated. The study also will discuss the role of religious men in the field of education, and how Sharia courts were managed by religious men, because these two important and influential points were the reason behind strengthening the authority of religious men as it was completely supervised by them.
Reshoring jako sposób ograniczania zakłóceń równowagi w globalnych łańcuchach dostaw
Authors: Wodnicka Monika
Published: July 2023

Przedmiot badań: Podejście, jakie rozpowszechniano w latach największego rozwoju globalizacji, że świat stał się płaski, a państwowe granice pod względem produkcji oraz zaopatrzenia nie mają znaczenia, jest nieaktualne. Implikują to zdarzenia, jakich obecnie doświadczamy (np. wojny handlowe, działania zbrojne w Ukrainie, pandemia COVID-19). Coraz częściej można przekonać się, iż perspektywa globalizacji pozostaje niezdefiniowana głównie z uwagi na zakłócenia i problemy, jakich doświadczają globalne łańcuchy dostaw. To one obecnie stanowią impuls do redefinicji strategii realizowanych przez przedsiębiorstwa, związanych między innymi z delokalizacją działalności, głównie produkcyjnej. W tym miejscu powstaje pytanie, czy zjawisko reshoringu i związane z nim inwestycje przybiera na sile oraz które kraje mogą liczyć na tzw. powroty rodzimych korporacji.

Cel badawczy: Celem artykułu jest przedstawienie zjawiska reshoringu oraz próba odpowiedzi na pytanie, czy zakłócenia, które wywierają presję na globalne łańcuchy dostaw, implikują jego rozwój.

Metoda badawcza: Zastosowane metody badawcze obejmują między innymi przegląd i analizę dostępnej literatury oraz danych zastanych pochodzących z raportów, a także informacji uzyskanych z badania własnego przeprowadzonego wśród menadżerów przedsiębiorstw z kapitałem zagranicznym, prowadzących działalność w Polsce, z wykorzystaniem narzędzia wywiadu pogłębionego.1

Wyniki: Pandemia COVID-19 czy wojna handlowa między USA a Chinami uświadomiły liderom łańcuchów dostaw słabości ich zglobalizowanych łańcuchów i zakwestionowały logikę outsourcingu/ offshoringu oraz skoncentrowanych i współzależnych sieci łańcuchów. To, czego możemy spodziewać się w ramach działań podejmowanych przez przedsiębiorstwa, to z pewnością dywersyfikacja źródeł pozyskiwania komponentów/produktów z rynków lokalnych/macierzystych (reshoring) lub krajów sąsiednich (nearshoring) ulokowanych bliżej zakładów produkcyjnych. Analiza danych oraz przeprowadzone rozważania, dotyczące delokalizacji działalności gospodarczej w ramach reshoringu pokazują, iż największe zainteresowanie reshoringiem wykazują korporacje ze Stanów Zjednoczonych (83% badanych firm), natomiast z krajów europejskich rozważają lub wdrażają nearshoring. Biorąc pod uwagę regiony świata, najwięcej projektów reshoringu dotyczy Azji, głównie Chin.
On the Issue of Determining the Age when Developing a Methodology for Investigating Crimes Involving Minors
Authors:   East Siberian institute of the MIA of the Russia, Fomina I. A.
Published: July 2023

The aspects relevant to criminalistic theory related to the definition of the concept of “age”, laid down in legislation and theory, and which can have a significant impact on the development of methods for investigating crimes involving minors as a basic one on the basis of the commonality of the subject of research, are considered. It is established that the existing approaches to the definition of such a category as age, both in science and from the position of the legislator, are not ideal, and do not meet all the goals of ongoing research where age is the main object of research, since they use only part of the existing characteristics to determine age. The analysis of the current legislation made it possible to demonstrate the lack of unity in determining age and the presence of attempts to take into account the nature of regulated legal relations as the basis for determining age. It is revealed that in view of the fact that it is age as a characterizing category that affects many aspects in the study of the personality of a minor within the framework of the investigation of crimes with their participation methodology, it should form the basis of the behavioral mechanisms of the subject of the considered methodology as the most influential element. The conclusion is made about the relevance of using a conditional approach when characterizing such a criterion as the age of a minor, due to the insufficiency and impossibility of meeting all the needs facing the forensic methodology, using only a chronological concretized (absolutely formal) approach. Determining the meaning of age and a clear understanding of the patterns of psychological development dependent on it, affecting the possibility of involving a minor in criminal activity, allowed us to reflect the complexity of the study of this category. This is especially true within the framework of the rule of law, when the basis of its development, strengthening and prosperity determines the ability of the younger generation to follow the legal rules and boundaries existing in society. Various issues of the influence of age on the possibility of using this category in order to identify, disclose and investigate crimes involving minors have been studied. Multitasking is justified in the study of the age of a minor involved directly or indirectly in criminal activity, as the main element in personality characteristics. The emphasis is placed on the need for an integrated approach to the study of age, as the only true and satisfying the needs of both the forensic theory and the practice of investigating cases underlying the development of the investigation methodology under study.

Published: July 2023

The article analyzes the criminological features of violent female penitentiary crime in Russia. Some criminological issues of studying the penitentiary crime of women sentenced to deprivation of liberty are considered. The problem of preventing violence in women’s colonies is the deterioration of the special contingent, the increased number of female convicts prone to aggression, as well as the features of the system of correctional institutions, with their inherent negative criminogenic factors. When studying women’s violent crimes in places of deprivation of liberty, it is necessary to take into account the high level of their latency, the personality traits of convicted women, and the negative conditions of the penitentiary environment. Violence and increased aggression in the territories of women’s colonies is still widespread and well hidden from official registration, a phenomenon that indicates the insufficiency of the securitative system, as well as non-compliance with the law in the conditions of serving a sentence of imprisonment, were, due to objective factors, constant interpersonal conflicts among convicted women. In modern realities, the search for new measures to effectively counter the penitentiary crime of women sentenced to deprivation of liberty is a necessary condition for complying with the main tasks of the penitentiary policy of the Russian Federation - combating violations of the regime and achieving the correction of those sentenced to deprivation of liberty in the process of serving their sentences.

In pre-pandemic scenarios, various studies have indicated that gamification has turned out to contribute to improving student learning; however, in the context of the pandemic and in the face of the abrupt change to a virtual teaching modality, the need for learning innovations to overcome the limitations of social distancing was much more critical. Thus, this article aims to explore and describe the design considerations of gamification and the factors that evidenced its success in engineering education. Therefore, a systematic review of the literature was developed under a mixed approach and with an exploratory-descriptive scope. The results showed that gamification was applied to a greater extent in computer engineering and software engineering. In addition, the design considerations that prevailed in the development of gamification applications were, to a greater extent. focused on the pedagogical objective and the interaction of the simulation. It was found that the application of gamification effectively generates motivation, commitment, and permanent participation of the student. As such, it is concluded that aspects such as the area of knowledge of the student in engineering are relevant for the implementation of gamification. In addition, the design considerations that contribute to the success of the construction of student learning do not depend on the virtual, face-to-face or hybrid teaching model; however, it is necessary to build regulations that regulate and promote the continuity and sustainability of the use of gamification throughout the engineering career and not in isolation.
Learning Moral Values Through Cartoons for Malaysian Preschool-aged Children
Authors: Abdullah Muhammad Alif Redzuan
Published: July 2023

While the younger generation’s access to YouTube and time spent in front of the TV have increased, research on the ability of young children to learn moral values remains lacking. Furthermore, the preconceived notion that cartoons are detrimental to moral development is inconclusive, which requires further research to be confirmed or debunked. This study, which is mixed method research, aims to identify and analyse how moral values are taught in cartoons. A total of 20 preschool children (aged five to six years old) from an elementary school in Kuala Lumpur were selected. Doraemon animated series or movies were used as the study data. Notably, Doraemon animations and movies are popular among children as they are humorous and condemn bullying. This was followed by the process of data collection that comprised three phases. Specifically, the first phase was participant observation, the second phase was questionnaires, and the third phase was the unstructured interview. A statistical programme was conducted to analyse all the quantitative data collected from the surveys. Qualitative analysis software was used to analyse and code the qualitative data collected from observations and unstructured interviews. As a result, the majority of preschool children were in the imitation phase. Therefore, they imitated the good moral values portrayed in the cartoons they watched. This study also highlighted that preschool children's viewing of cartoons is not only entertaining but also educational and teaches important key moral values. Apart from that, the children preferred to watch cartoons rather than playing outside during their free time. The families' explanations helped the preschoolers distinguish between good and bad moral values in line with Malay culture and Islamic teachings. The analysis was limited by the small sample size and geographical location of this study. Thus, it was suggested that further studies are conducted to expand the economic strata and age groups.
Defining documentary
Authors: Przylipiak Mirosław
Published: July 2023

The aim of this paper is to define documentary film. After a brief review of existing definitions, the author proposes his own. The methods of working on the set and the textual features of the films are considered as distinguishing documentary filmmaking from other film genres. Issues such as the filmmakers’ interference with the filmed reality, the criteria for distinguishing between fictional and non-fictional elements, the admissibility of special effects, the specificity of editing, and the place of the documentary film among other nonfictional genres are considered. The final definition is confronted with the most recent genres of documentary cinema, namely the animated documentary, the mockumentary and the web-documentary.
Entextualizing History through Archives: Representation of Muslim Identity in Post 9/11 Documentaries
Authors: Sheikh Khurram Nawaz
Published: July 2023

Representation of Muslims in media post the Sept 11 attacks in the US largely focused on themes of terrorism and extremism. Such homogenized representation was particularly problematic in non-fiction media such as news and documentaries which use archival footage to create ‘reality’. The consequent circulation of these images across the globe is one of the many examples through which Muslim representation has been constructed through stock footage and sourced media images in media post the 9/11 attacks. In this paper, I examine stock images in documentary films in the form of archives to examine the representation of Muslim identity in the post 9/11 world. Using Malitsky’s framework of entextualization to analyze archival material in post 9/11 documentaries, I argue how stock images create a power differential between the East and the West (Said, 1979) reinstating imperial domination. Therefore, this paper intends to examine the use of archives that have been entextualized and re-present history to shape representation of Muslims across spatial and temporal differences through documentary films. To do so, I critically examine two post 9/11 documentaries – Secret Pakistan (2011) and Turning Point: 9/11 and the War on Terror (2021) – to study how these films position the role of Pakistan as an Islamic nation in the Global War on Terror.
In Queer Memory: Mediating Queer Chinese History in Digital Video Documentaries
Authors: Bao Hongwei
Published: July 2023

This article examines the digital and cinematic mediation of queer memory in four independent Chinese documentaries: Queer China, “Comrade” China (dir. Cui Zi’en 2008), Our Story (dir. Yang Yang, 2011), We Are Here (dir. Shi Tou and Jing Zhao, 2016) and Shanghai Queer (dir. Chen Xiangqi, 2019). All these films have been made by queer identified filmmakers and have used the digital video documentary format as an activist strategy; all have strived to record China’s queer history in the post-Mao era. However, because of the filmmakers’ gender and sexual subjectivities, together with the historical and social contexts in which these films were made, the four documentaries remember China’s queer history in different ways. Together, these documentaries contest a heteronormative and a homonormative narrative of Chinese history by constructing alternative memories; they also insert queer people’s voices and experiences into that history. All these mediations testify to the heterogeneity of queer people’s experience, as well as the overdetermination of queer memory as a result of a contingent assemblage of factors such as time, place, technology and filmmaker’s gender and sexual subjectivities.
A Defiant Act of Looking: Prisoners’ Illicit Documentary Practices of Shooting-Back
Authors: Najem Chafic T.
Published: July 2023

During an armed security operation on Lebanon’s most notorious prison, an image emerges from the POV of a prisoner. Capturing the military vehicles and the prison bars obstructing his vision, a prisoner snatches a photograph through his illicitly smuggled cellphone camera. In this article, I follow the events of Lebanese authorities’ intervention on Roumieh Central Prison’s Bloc B and collect a sample of images and videos produced and circulated by prisoners as the operation was taking place. By examining the frame, composition, POV, sound, and montage of such amateur fragmentary cellphone recordings, I note two major modes of framing adopted by prisoners; one frames outside the bars and the second frames inside. I contextualize such modes of framing as ‘counter-shots’ in relation to the state’s media strategies of legitimizing its repressive actions and I argue that prisoners utilize smuggled media technologies, such as the cellphone and its camera, as a response to the state’s performative acts of sovereignty. Prisoners operationalize the frame and the POV to create a ‘counter’ way of seeing and documenting the events on Bloc B. Hence, prison cellphone recordings reflect not only what is portrayed inside their frames, but also their means of production. Through the framework of media as practice and the notion of media witnessing, I argue that the illicitly produced modes of framing reflect a practice of media production based around the smuggling of media technologies into the prison. Through such a practice, prisoners produce images and videos to represent and document their lived experiences, relay testimonies, and make the audience bear witness to the horrific and precarious conditions of incarceration; hence, engaging in a practice of documentation from the prison.

PROSPECTS FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF HIGHER EDUCATION: EDUCOLOGICAL ASPECTS
Authors: Melnychenko Olga
Published: July 2023

The article is devoted to the analysis of prospects for the development of education from the point of view of educology and futurology. The author emphasizes that the idea of the future has gone from science fiction to modern expectations and assumptions based on interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approaches, which allow scientists to understand the role of the future in the everyday life of humanity, in particular, to connect thinking with temporality, memory and modern technologies. The article examines the key competencies of future education, which are important for sustainable development both in the European, North and South American, Asian educational space, as well as for some specific regions of the world. Particular attention is paid to the differences in the concepts of competences corresponding to different circumstances in different regions of the world. On this basis, the article characterizes competences that are oriented towards the future and that must be developed in the educational process of university training: competence in anticipatory thinking; competence in interdisciplinary research; competence in cosmopolitan perception of changes and perspectives; competence in working with incomplete and complex information; competence in cooperation; competence in individual decision-making; competence in self-motivation and motivation of others; competence in thinking about individual and cultural patterns; competence in independent actions; competence in ethical actions; capacity for empathy and solidarity. The author focuses on those competencies recognized by all scientists regardless of the region of the world - this is the development of systematic, anticipatory and critical thinking. Key competencies have different relevance and meaning in different contexts and regions. Against this background, it becomes clear that universities must take into account certain differences when thinking about what key competencies students should develop in the educational process of higher education. Today, researchers of the future are trying to change the subjective thinking in the social sciences, humanities to an interdisciplinary and multidisciplinary approach, which are devoid of ideological, religious, racial or ethnic doctrines. This especially applies to the educational sphere, in which it is necessary to overcome the separation of information in individual disciplines, which hinders the formation of a holistic imagination regarding the development of society, its structure, mechanisms of activity, etc.

Means of forming the imperial colonial narrative in the M. Karamzin’s story “Marfa-posadnitsa, or the Conquest of Novogorod”
Authors: Zayarna Iryna
Published: July 2023

The relevance of the study is determined by the need for post-colonial studies of Russian literature, in particular the historical prose by Mykola Karamzin, who was one of the first creators of the imperial colonial narrative in fiction. His story “Marfa-Posadnitsa, or the Conquest of Novogorod” has not yet been the object of such a study, the problem of the founding of Russian colonial policy on the pages of this literary work has not been covered in literary studies. Consideration of this issue is the goal of this research. In the comparative aspect, the text of Karamzin’s “History of the Russian State” in its part devoted to the Novogorod events of the 15th century is included to the analysis. The methodology of postcolonial studies and narratological analysis was used to implement the research objectives. As a result of the study, the following means of forming the imperial colonial narrative in the story were determined: the evaluative author’s words, speeches of historical characters-politicians, rhetorical techniques, and the method of depicting events and their participants. The position of the author-narrator is aimed at supporting the conquering policy of the Moscow principality, the annexation of Novogorod is justified by the “higher” goals of creating a powerful empire and is presented as an objective historical necessity. The imperial colonial discourse is vividly illustrated by the speech of the Moscow prince’s ambassador, which is a model of political demagogy, the use of manipulative technologies, and the intimidation of citizens. The two-valued connotation of Marfa’s image contributes to establishing the author’s necessary accents. On the one hand there is heroization, a comparison with Cato, and on the other is a conscious simplification of the motives of Marfa’s struggle as a leader of the people’s resistance. Obviously, the writer creates a certain field of mistrust towards the heroine by emphasizing her manipulation of the feelings of the crowd as a good orator. Thanks to the motives of the useless sacrifice of Marfa and the people of Novgorod, prophecy, “the will of Providence”, Karamzin forces the reader to think about the inevitability of the fall of the Novgorod Republic. The prospects of the research are the re-reading of Russian imperial literature in the context of post-colonial studies, further debunking the means of myth-making and colonial narrative in the corpus of its texts of different periods.
Audiovisual content of cultural journalism in wartime to the issue of national identity
Authors: Lisnevska Alina , Novykova Ruslana
Published: July 2023

The research relevance is defined by the mission of cultural journalism that is clearly aware of the changes in society’s values and historical topics, modern narratives of Ukrainian culture, language, and history both for the domestic consumer and abroad. The research subject is the audiovisual content of the Ukrainian media space, which is represented by a community of media professionals, amateurs, and video bloggers. This is due to the simplification of video production technologies and the availability of communication platforms for the distribution of audiovisual content. The aim of the research is to consider the impact of cultural journalism in the form of audiovisual content on the processes of creating national identity and self-awareness of Ukrainians during the war. The methods of content analysis, cultural and semantic analysis were used to achieve the goal. As a result of the research, the special role of wartime cultural journalism in the process of creating national identity was proved. It should also be taken into account that long-term research into the nature of an audiovisual work has proven the power of its influence on the processes of forming values and the worldview of a mass audience, however, this segment of the media space is not used enough in cultural journalism today. The majority of audiovisual content in the media today consists of conversational informational and analytical formats like video blogs of experts, analysts, and opinion leaders on relevant wartime topics. Many young Ukrainian YouTube amateurs create and promote such content very actively. At the same time, the creation and distribution of similar projects by professional media have a non-systematic nature, often a convergent form. On the one hand, the simplification of video production technologies and the availability of communication platforms led to the explosion and distribution of amateur audiovisual content on the topics of Ukrainian culture and history. On the other hand, insufficient attention of journalists and editors of Ukrainian media to audiovisual journalistic works of artistic and journalistic genres on the relevant subject is observed. Hybridization takes the place of genres into situational formats and the rapid development of cultural journalism and video blogging covering the topics of Ukrainian culture and history. The specified processes testify to the effectiveness of the factors of national identity creation in the media space today and outline the perspective of research on the specified problem.
Memory as a women’s space in the novel “The Museum of Abandoned Secrets” by O. Zabuzhko
Authors: Butska Kateryna
Published: July 2023

The subject of the research is the conceptualization of memory as a female sphere in the novel “The Museum of Abandoned Secrets” by O. Zabuzhko. The key problem of the study is the interpretation of the image of women in the novel in the context of national and generational memory. The objective of the research is to explore the female domains associated with the space of memory and to highlight the peculiarities of the image of women as keepers of memory. The descriptive, hermeneutic, and intertextual analysis methods have been employed to achieve the objective. The novelty of the research lies in the examination of female images in the novel from the perspective of the burden of representation (N. Yuval-Davis) and considering the conceptual positions of O. Zabuzhko outlined in the essay “A Woman Author in Colonial Culture, or Necessities for Ukrainian Gender Mythology”. As a result, it was established that the sphere of memory in the novel “The Museum of Abandoned Secrets” is associated with such female domains as: special female creativity (artistic transformation of destroyed household items in the works by Vladyslava Matusevych); girls’ game of “secrets”; the private space of home, which is opposed to the space of “official truth”; intimate relationships and pregnancy. Women appear as keepers of national memory and reproducers of the nation itself (through their ability to give birth), as well as bearers of mystical knowledge about the past. The study traces the anti-colonial discourse of “The Museum of Abandoned Secrets” in a distinct synthesis of gender and national issues. The woman in O. Zabuzhko’s novel is “burdened” with the burden of representation — her bodily being represents the national dignity of her country. Accordingly, the mistake in choosing a man is perceived as a tragic mistake of the heroine (Olena Dovhan), which her heiress (Daryna Hoshchynska) must atone for. The image of Olena Dovhan is seen as a variant of the iconic image of Kateryna, which embodies colonised Ukraine. In contrast, we observe in the image of Daryna Hoshchynska a distinct type of heroine whose intimate life is a space of decolonisation. In the intimate relationship between Daryna and Adrian, the reconstruction of family memory takes place, which reflect collective memory — the memories of the Holodomor and the Ukrainian Insurgent Army’s liberation struggle. The culmination of this relationship is Daryna’s pregnancy, which represents the liberation of Ukraine-woman from the rule of foreigners and gives hope for victory in the war against the coloniser. The study of the gender aspect of postcolonial memory allows for broad prospects within feminist literary studies, literary memory studies, and other fields.

GNSS ile konum belirleme yöntemlerinden mutlak konum belirleme tekniği olan Hassas Nokta Konumlama (PPP) yöntemi tek bir Küresel Konum Belirleme Sistemi (GNSS) alıcısıyla konum bilgisi sağlamaktadır. Bu durum maliyet ve zaman tasarrufu, yüksek konum doğruluğu, kolay ve pratik çözümler sunması son yıllarda geleneksel-PPP ve Hassas Nokta Konumlama-Belirsizlik Çözümü (PPP-AR) yöntemlerine olan ilgiyi arttırmış ve bu sayede çok sayıda yazılım üretilmiştir. Bu çalışmada son yıllarda geliştirilmiş ve kullanıcının hizmetine sunulmuş olan Net_Diff ve PRIDE yazılımları kullanılarak PPP-AR yönteminin konum belirleme performansı incelenmiştir. Bu amaçla ISTA ve MERS Uluslararası GNSS Hizmeti (IGS) istasyonlarının yirmi günlük (29.10.2022-17.11.2022) gözlem verileri dikkate alınmıştır. Değerlendirmelerde GPS, GLONASS, GALILEO ve BeiDou uydu sistemleri kullanılmıştır. Yazılımlardan elde edilen sonuçlar istasyonların referans (IGS günlük çözüm) koordinat değerleriyle karşılaştırılmıştır. Çalışma sonucunda yatay ve düşey yönlerde elde edilen karesel ortalama hata değerlerinden PRIDE yazılımının Net_Diff yazılımına göre daha yüksek nokta konumlandırma doğruluğuna ve daha iyi performansa sahip olduğu tespit edilmiştir.
