Students’ Inconsistency when Solving a Geometry Problem in Three-Dimensional Context
Authors: Alghadari Fiki , Ma’ruf Abdul Hakim , Yundayani Audi
Published: January 2024

There is an issue regarding students' consistency in completing geometry assignments, as indicated by several research findings and assessments. Diagnosing how students integrate concepts in the conceptual design and understanding the reasons behind their inconsistency in completing assignments are the main focuses of this case study. This research was conducted with 58 high school students in Tanjungpandan, Indonesia. The data were obtained from students' answers to problems of the three initial levels of geometry thinking and retrospective reports about their answers. The data were analyzed based on three phases: the concept-eliciting and integrating phase, the relationship-eliciting phase, and the relationship-integrating phase. The study revealed that students' performance in geometry analysis aligned with the epistemological concept issue. Visual objects garnered the most attention from students, leading to their analysis techniques being primarily object-oriented. Some stages of property analysis were skipped, causing students to make claims about objects of thought when they should have been establishing relationships between properties to classify shapes through rigorous geometry analysis. Numerical computation remains an essential aspect of geometry analysis. The conceptual design has not yet reached the abstraction stage, resulting in experiments to solve problems not always yielding the correct solutions. In education, this highlights the need for a deep understanding of concept epistemology, efficient concept integration, and the cultivation of abstract thinking skills.
Why Mature Galaxies Seem to Have Filled the Universe Shortly After the Big Bang — A New Cosmological Model, that Predicted the JWST Observations
Authors: Pletcher Arthur
Published: January 2024

The Azimulthal Hyper-Projection onto spacetime Model (AHOSM) of Cosmology is just an extension of the familiar Atlas map of a globe in geography class. The Atlas is an azimuthal projection of 3 spacial dimensions projected onto a 2 dimensional plane. The important feature of an Atlas is that the geometry expands asymptotic toward the horizon, and is therefore POSITIONALLY DEPENDENT, such that if North America is centrally positioned, then Siberia and Alaska are viewed as extremely remote. Thus if the Bering Strait were centrally positioned, then longitudinal meridians of North America would likewise be viewed as being extremely remote. AHOSM extends this concept to a hyper-projection of hyper-spacetime (4 spacial dimensions) onto spacetime. However as viewed in spacetime, geodesics appear to be expanding outward in 3 dimensional space away from the observer. Thus by extension, AHOSM is also POSITIONALLY DEPENDENT, such that the most remote galaxies only appear to be mutually separated (from each other) with extreme distance, as viewed from our central position, and vice versa our local group of Galaxies would appear to be mutually separated with extreme distances from a remote perspective.

A proposed experiment is offered to prove that the distance from Earth to Mars is measured greater from the perspective of the outer solar system and vice versa.

Red-shifting is alternatively proposed as azimuthal angular projections of wavelengths \(\lambda\). Magnitude is alternatively proposed as a function of Lambert's cosine law of illumination, over expanding geodesics. This simple parsimonious model requires only a few assumptions, excluding dark energy to satisfy the Cosmological Constant \(\Lambda\), and is shown to match the Universal expansion rate, as established from supernova cosmology survey points. Galaxy rotation curves are simply and accurately explained as measured expanding geodesics and density, along the observer's line of site

The justification of such a radically novel model is from recent observations from the first dataset, provided by NASA's James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) of six massive galaxies, at a time in the early universe, seem to defy conventional cosmological models, as they appear to be as mature and developed as our own local group. Such unexpected discoveries JUSTIFY A RADICALLY NOVEL MODEL OF COSMOLOGY. TO QUOTE JOEL LEJA, ASSISTANT PROFESSOR OF ASTRONOMY AND ASTROPHYSICS AT PENN STATE “IT TURNS OUT WE FOUND SOMETHING SO UNEXPECTED IT ACTUALLY CREATES PROBLEMS FOR SCIENCE. IT CALLS THE WHOLE PICTURE OF EARLY GALAXY FORMATION INTO QUESTION”.

Smart Motorcycle Helmet: A CNN-Based Multi-Task Learning Approach
Authors: Jesan Rodriges , Pant Kumar
Published: January 2024

Automated motorcycle helmet detection through video surveillance is crucial for enhancing road safety through education and enforcement. Existing approaches face limitations, such as difficulty in tracking individual motorcycles and distinguishing drivers from passengers. To address these challenges, we propose a CNN-based multi-task learning (MTL) method for identifying and tracking individual motorcycles, with a focus on rider-specific helmet use. We introduce the HELMET dataset, comprising 91,000 annotated frames from 10,006 motorcycles across 12 observation sites in Myanmar, providing a benchmark for future detection approaches. Our MTL approach, leveraging concurrent visual similarity learning and helmet use classification, achieves improved efficiency and accuracy. The proposed method operates at over 8 FPS on consumer hardware, yielding a weighted average F-measure of 67.3% for detecting riders and helmet use. Our work showcases deep learning as an accurate and resource-efficient means of collecting critical road safety data. we present an intelligent motorcycle helmet featuring infrared transceivers, an image sensor, an embedded computation module, a charging module, a microphone, and earphones. Designed for large vehicle approach intimation, the helmet uses image recognition modes for day and night conditions. Experimental results demonstrate successful vehicle registration plate recognition for large trucks/buses, achieving up to 75% accuracy during the day and 70% at night. The proposed intelligent motorcycle helmet detects approaching large vehicles in real time within a 5-meter distance.
“Saving the Forest” with a REDD+ Project: Socio-Ecological Repercussions on Indigenous People in Cambodia
Authors: Bourdier Frédéric
Published: January 2024

With the ecological threat associated with climate change and biodiversity loss, the push to expand green zones with minimal human presence is gaining momentum, especially in the Global South. In line with this worldwide tendency, the Kingdom of Cambodia has embarked on a long-term strategy for carbon neutrality, aiming to achieve zero emissions by 2050, making it the first in ASEAN to submit such a vision. Protecting the forest is the present-day motto. Beyond this mainstream rhetoric, this article delves into the survival realities of the indigenous people involved in Cambodia's conservation projects. The anthropological research intends to reveal the fate of the villages (human rights, access to land and natural resources, sovereignty) living in and around a conservation area. We examine the case of the transnational organisation Wildlife Conservation Society engaged in a Reducing Emissions from Deforestation and Forest Degradation (REDD+) program in a territory traditionally inhabited by ethnic Bunong people. The findings provide significant insights, frequently neglected, into the challenges associated with the will to “save the forest”, with an extremely limited participation of the local population.

Background & Aims One of the challenges in accurate and macro planning for the future is the uncertainty involved in estimating the future and rapid changes in various health-related fields. A powerful tool that can predict future competitive environments is the scenario planning tool. The current research aims to provide scenarios for the future of nursing education in Iran. Materials & Methods This exploratory research was conducted in 2022. In the first stage, the drivers and trends of nursing education were identified using meta-synthesis, interviews, and the Delphi method. Then, the influence and uncertainty of the identified trends were rated using the opinions of a panel of experts. In the next step, using influence/uncertainty diagrams, the key factors for writing the scenario were identified. Scenarios were then designed by Scenario Wizard software, version 4.11, and strategies were presented. Results The experts agreed on 6 drivers and 31 trends. With five key uncertainties, the scenarios were designed with three optimistic, realistic, and pessimistic assumptions. According to the size of the matrix and its dimensions (15×15), four problem-oriented, ethics-oriented, maintaining the status quo, and limited educational system scenarios were designed. The validity of the scenarios was examined according to feasibility, internal consistency, usefulness, and differentiability. Conclusion Each of the four designed scenarios has the potential to be realized, but their occurrence depends on the current plans. The use of future planning methods, such as the scenario planning tool, can be used as a warning system for awareness of opportunities and threats in Iran's health system before a crisis.

Innovative technology development is an integral part of the qualitative changes taking place in the defense industry. Research in the field of defense poses a dilemma for scientists: on the one hand, access to military discourse should remain confidential; on the other hand, research in the social sciences should fully cover the results and make them understandable. The purpose of the study: to highlight the mechanism of international arms trade and the dependence of its characteristics on the level of development of innovative technologies in the defense sector of individual countries. The subject of the study: features and mechanisms of the global arms market functioning depending on the development of technological innovations in the defense industry. Methods used in the study: stimulating reflection, analysis and synthesis, historical, dialectical, systematic, logical. Research hypothesis: it is assumed that innovations in the defense industry lead to changes in the structural characteristics of the global arms market. Summary of the main material: the nine largest exporters in the international arms market are identified, and the latest trends in the global arms market are analyzed. Based on the data on preliminary orders and final negotiations, forecasts of trends in the development of international arms trade in the near future are made. The key breakthrough technologies that will form the basis for the future development of the defense industry and the global arms market are highlighted. Originality and practical significance of the study: an in-depth analysis of the mechanisms of the international arms market functioning was carried out, and possible trends in its development were identified. Conclusions: the peculiarities of the international arms market functioning are as follows: difficulties in controlling commodity transactions and technological exchanges, non-transparency of registration and verification of export-import operations, which results in a limited number of producers and exporters dominating it. Innovative defense technologies have led to the development of a number of new areas of the international arms market.

Prospects for further research: are to highlight the peculiarities of the impact of each of the breakthrough technologies on changes in the global arms market.
Digital thing as a “new” object of “new” civil legal relations
Authors: Slipchenko A. S. , Slipchenko S. O.
Published: January 2024

The article is devoted to theoretical comprehension and establishment of the concept of digital things as “new” objects of “new” civil legal relations which is proposed to be introduced into the civil legislation of Ukraine. It is obvious that in case of emergence of any new objects of civil rights which have become a prerequisite for the emergence of previously unknown relations, there is a need to establish an appropriate legal regime for such goods. Otherwise, the whole type of civil relations will remain unregulated, and this will have a negative impact not only on civil turnover, but will also create conditions for an increase in the number of violations of subjective rights. Therefore, the author analyses the legal relations which arise in the “digital environment” and which are proposed to be considered as new ones in the legal literature, and examines the objects of civil rights in such legal relations. The study concludes that the legal relations arising in the “digital environment” are fully covered by the already known types of civil legal relations and are not new in comparison with the existing ones, and a digital thing is not a new object of civil rights. It is just a new and additional name for long-known and even traditional objects of civil rights, including services, property rights, information, results of intellectual and creative activity, tradable objects of personal non-property legal relations, etc. The only peculiarity of virtual objects is that they are created and provided with the help of digital technologies, an Internet resource. It has been established that an online account is not an object of civil rights at all. It is only the result of recording data in the form of a digital code that allows computer equipment to identify, recognise a particular user and the limits of his/her access to certain Internet resources. A persistent computer (digital, electronic, software) code that is recorded in a database and located (stored) on a server is not an independent object of civil rights, but is only a record.

Authors:   Sumy State University, Tarasenko Svitlana
Published: January 2024

The territorial development is connected with innovative activities of companies. The intangible assets, in particular, brands of companies, form an additional factor in strengthening the impact of innovation on the territorial development, and thus increases the efficiency of the latter. The aim of research is to develop the theoretical framework of itinterrelationship’s innovations, brands of companies and territorial development. It was used methods of analysis, synthesis and system approach. It was found, that the main indicators of the interrelationship’s framework "innovations-brands of companies-territorial development" are: 1) innovative indicators of companies: the number of innovations, the number of implemented innovations, the number of patents; 2) financial and economic indicators of the company: expenses for the promotion of the company, brand value, revenue, taxes; 3) indicators of the territorial development: the budget of the territory, the GDP of the territory, the number of business entities located in the territory; the number of business entities registered in the territory. More innovative companies have a higher brand value, realized in higher demand for products, increased revenue, and, therefore, the amount of taxes that come to the territory's budgets. A larger territory budget determines the regional economic capacity, expanding opportunities and directions of development.

Authors:   Sumy National Agrarian University, Volyk Serhii
Published: January 2024

The article is devoted to generalizing the scientific opinion on the essence of the concept of «competition» and the outline of its features in the context of constructing enterprise competitiveness management systems. It is proved that in order to take into account and compare all aspects and factors influencing the level of competitiveness of enterprises, it is necessary to form the concept of a theoretical approach to the definition of competition as an economic category. Approaches to types of market construction are disclosed. The historical conceptualization of the concept of «competition» in the economy was studied, and the structural approach was considered the most effective for determining the priority areas of managing the competitiveness of enterprises. Also highlighted is the behavioral approach based on the concept of competition for resources and product differentiation and the functional approach, which considers competition as a motivator for innovation. In the context of the structural approach, the criteria for assessing competition are clarified, particularly the analysis of the market structure by participants and their market shares. It is substantiated that the definition of conceptual points of view of the understanding of competition is expedient to be applied in a systematic approach to the determination of rational ways of assessing the intensity of competition, methods, and techniques of conducting a compelling struggle for the conquest of markets, determination of priority directives for the creation of complex measures for the strategic planning of the behavior of subjects of economic relations and their competitiveness, as a factor of ensuring long-term development within the framework of market interaction. The comparison of various aspects of the classification of competition made it possible to focus the methodological range of the development of the system of managing the competitiveness of grain-producing enterprises on actual priorities by considering the target sales markets of the studied enterprises through the prism of the peculiarities of agricultural economic relations.

Published: January 2024

The article examines the issue of using artificial intelligence in the enterprise management system. The relevance of the use of artificial intelligence in the enterprise management system is manifested in its ability to transform and optimize key aspects of business. It is emphasized that the application of artificial intelligence technologies has become an integral part of successful business in the modern world. The integration of these technologies into the activities of enterprises helps to ensure competitive advantages and rise to a new level of competitiveness. Therefore, it is important for enterprises to be aware of the possibilities and prospects of integrating artificial intelligence technologies into their business and quickly adapt them to achieve success. As a conclusion, it is said that artificial intelligence is a powerful tool for implementation in business process management systems. This tool automates processes, increases efficiency, reduces costs and improves the quality of decision-making. However, it is important to consider the shortcomings and limitations associated with the availability of quality data and the integration of systems. The use of artificial intelligence requires careful planning and analysis, but can be a key success factor in business process management. In general, artificial intelligence has become an integral part of the modern world and can be successfully used in business process management systems. Its advantages include the ability to analyze large volumes of data, identify complex dependencies, and make objective decisions based on algorithms. Artificial intelligence automates routine management tasks, freeing up human resources for complex tasks that require creative thinking and a strategic approach. One of the successful examples of using AI in business process management is an image recognition system and machine learning for product quality control. This system recognizes product defects with high accuracy and speed, reducing the number of defects and increasing product quality. The use of AI also reduces costs, improves decision-making processes and promotes innovative development.
FOREIGN DIRECT INVESTMENT: STATUS AND DEVELOPMENT PROSPECTS
Authors:   State University of Information and Communication Technologies, Yevtushenko Nаtalia
Published: January 2024

The article is devoted to an analysis of the state and prospects for attracting foreign direct investment into the Ukrainian economy under martial law. The essence of the concept of “foreign direct investment” explored and its characteristic features are determined. It established that in the legislative acts of Ukraine only the concept of “foreign investments” presented for consideration and their content described. The role of transnational companies at the present stage of attracting foreign investment to Ukraine outlined. A list of transnational companies operating in the domestic investment market provided. An analysis of the dynamics of foreign direct investment in Ukraine carried out based on the principle of direction. The unstable nature of cash flows revealed. It established that a significant part of foreign direct investment in the overall structure made up of those directed to Ukraine. However with the advent of war in 2022, the already not very high investment attractiveness of the Ukrainian economy decreased. This significantly complicated the economic situation in the country and significantly decreased its investment activity. An assessment was made of the scale of capital reinvestment in Ukraine through “round tripping” operations. Their unstable dynamics established and it revealed that the most significant volumes of foreign direct investment were directed to industries and institutions engaged in wholesale and retail trade. The main investor countries for round tripping operations presented, of which a significant part belongs to Cyprus and the Netherlands. Because of the study, factors identified that negatively affected the processes of foreign investment in Ukraine and related to the war and business rules. Recommendations developed that take into account general economic and institutional conditions for activating the foreign investment market in Ukraine. Separate effective mechanisms for their implementation presented.

The article examines the foreign experience of using models of the transformation of the economies of countries in the post-war period and its significance for the activities of the tourism industry subjects. An overview of the latest research and publications on this topic was made to argue the topicality of the issue. The purpose of the study is to analyze and systematize the foreign experience of models of transformation of the economy of countries in the post-war period and ways of applying it to the activities of the subjects of the tourism industry. Poland's experience is based on the implementation of the «shock therapy» model, where the tools of transformation are defined as the creation of industrial parks, IT clusters, and the provision of investment benefits. Germany developed its transformation model using the «German economic miracle» concept, ordoliberalism (social market economy), and «Marshall plan» models, where the tools of transformation are defined as technical support, reduction of customs barriers, optimization of tax pressure, and tax stimulation of business. The tools of transformation in the Gradualist model of Bosnia and Herzegovina and European countries (Hungary, Czech Republic, Romania, Bulgaria) included favorable business environment, financial support, technical assistance, consulting and training, investment, and preferential taxation. The model of «shock therapy» in the post-war period of Singapore, South Korea, Japan, and Chile used such tools of transformation as reducing the tax burden, providing benefits and assistance in starting a business, sharing knowledge and technology transfer, developing smart city-type technologies, avoiding double taxation with various countries, and establishing a special tax regime for foreign investors. The researched models of transformation help to reveal the peculiarities of the recovery of the countries' economies in the post-war period and to determine the directions and tools of transformational changes, which are significant for the stabilization and activation of their development. The study findings argue that the most acceptable model of transformation of the competitive potential of the subjects of the tourism industry in Ukraine is the «shock therapy» model, which can «cut off» the elements of the old model and introduce a new concept following the conditions of the post-war period. It is recommended to implement a model for transforming the competitive potential of tourism industry entities, which includes the purpose, type, transformation criteria, and the effectiveness of the transformational changes according to the relevant stages (phases).

The purpose. To carry out a comparative analysis of modern scientific methods and approaches of project management, as well as to consider the peculiarities of the project cost management process. Methods. The research used methods of systematization, generalization, and comparative analysis. The results. The article considers the peculiarities of the application of common project management technologies, namely the PRINCE2 method, the PMBoK guide and the international standard ISO 21500. Their comparative analysis was carried out according to several parameters, and the advantages and disadvantages of each were determined. Considerable research attention is focused on the project cost management process. Its main purpose and importance for achieving success is revealed. Defined the key opportunities provided by the application of scientific methods and approaches to expenditure management, and also identified the complexities involved in this. It is proposed to consider the process of project cost management as a set of four consecutive stages: planning the involvement of project resources, estimating their cost, drawing up a budget and controlling costs. It is noted that such scientific methods and approaches, the use of which will help to effectively manage costs and achieve project success, should be applied at each stage. More detailed attention was paid to the assessment of the project cost. The article describes such a method as earned volume management, which helps to evaluate the effectiveness of the project, using three key dimensions: planned, earned and actual cost. The approach of estimation of economic efficiency of attracting investment in the project are considered. The practical significance. The obtained research results can be applied in practical activities, which will enable project managers to choose management technology and improve the expenditure management process. The results of the conducted research have signs of scientific novelty, namely, the systematization of scientific methods and project management approaches was further developed, which, unlike the existing ones, was carried out in the context of comparison according to several parameters, which allows determining the advantages and disadvantages of using certain project management technologies; an improved approach to the analysis of the project expenditure management process, which, in contrast to existing, takes into account both the possibilities and difficulties of applying scientific methods and emphasizes the need to consider the current circumstances (uncertainty and complexity of the environment during the wartime events).
