Authors: Hindarto Djarot , Handri Santoso
Published: December 2021

Currently adoption of mobile phones and mobile applications based  on Android operating system is increasing rapidly. Many companies and emerging startups are carrying out digital transformation by using mobile applications to provide disruptive digital services to replace existing old styled services. This transformation prompted the attackers to create malicious software (malware) using sophisticate methods to target victims of Android mobile phone users. The purpose of this study is to identify Android APK files by classifying them using Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Non Neural Network (NNN). The ANN is Multi-Layer Perceptron Classifier (MLPC), while  the NNN are KNN, SVM, Decision Tree, Logistic Regression and Naïve Bayes methods. The results show that the performance using NNN has decreasing accuracy when training using larger datasets. The use of the K-Nearest Neighbor algorithm with a dataset of 600 APKs achieves an accuracy of  91.2% and dataset of 14170 APKs achieves an accuracy of 88%. The using of the Support Vector Machine algorithm with the 600 APK dataset has an accuracy of 99.1% and the 14170 APK dataset has an accuracy of 90.5%. The using of the Decision Tree algorithm with the 600 APK dataset has an accuracy of  99.2%, the 14170 APK dataset has an accuracy of 90.8%. The experiment using the Multi-Layer Perceptron Classifier has increasing with the 600 APK dataset reaching 99%, the 7000 APK dataset reaching 100% and the 14170 APK dataset reaching 100%.

Authors: Andi Hutami Endang
Published: December 2021

The Prediction of World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that in 2030 the number of diabetics in Indonesia reached approximately 21.3 million people. Moreover, the development of medicine consumed by diabetics also varies. In this paper, we present a system that represents a diabetes expert into a knowledge based on the domain ontology. The early stage of the system is developing drugs ontology (including functions and contraindications) and patient ontology. Then, matching a weighted ontology will give drugs recommendations that are suitable with the patient's condition. The system is able to analyze diabetes symptoms to give drugs recommendations to the patient.

Choroidal neovascularization activity and structure by optical coherence tomography angiography in age related macular degeneration
Authors: Kovalevskaya M. A. , Pererva O. A.
Published: December 2021

Background. In economically developed countries, age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the leading cause of visual disability among the population of the older age group. The main criterion for the anti-VEGF treatment of neovascular AMD is the activity of choroidal neovascularization (CNV), which is determined by its confi guration. The search for optimal criteria for quantifying the state of the macular region in order to decide on the appointment of anti-VEGF therapy continues.Aim: improving the effi ciency of diagnosis and treatment of AMD based on the assessment of the configuration of vascular system on the “Key to Diagnosis II” platform.Material and methods. The study included 341 patients: 64 % (218 patients, 267 eyes) with non-neovascular AMD, 36 % (123 patients, 174 eyes) – with neovascular AMD. 56 patients (58 eyes) had active type I CNV. Group 1A – active CNV before treatment (9 patients, 9 eyes), group 1B – non-active CNV after treatment with antiVEGF (9 patients, 9 eyes); control group – 10 patients (10 eyes) without AMD. Analysis of OCT-angio images of choriocapillaries included the isolation of CNV, its area, fractal dimension (Df) and the complexity of the vascular system (CVS) counting.Results. Group 1A: Df – 1.5871 ± 0.05, CVS – 2.29 ± 0.29, area – 11734 ± 4866; group 1B: Df – 1.6462 ± 0.08, CVS – 1.65 ± 0.18, area – 6797 ± 3818; control: Df – 1.9167 ± 0.06, CVS – 1, area – 0. Significant differences were found for CVS (p = 0.0003). Df correlates with the CNV area (p = 0.7) and is probably an unreliable parameter due to incomplete visualization of active CNV.Conclusions. CVS is a quantitative biomarker for determining the activity of type 1 CNV in patients with AMD and can serve as a parameter for convolutional neural networks training for automated analysis of OCT angiography images based on the “Key to Diagnosis II” platform

Background. At an appointment with an ophthalmologist, patients with pathological conditions of the eyelids are often dissatisfi ed with the effectiveness of the traditional surgical treatment.The aim: assessment of the functional state of the eye adnexa after cryodestruction of the chalazion with an increased risk of complications using modern cryosurgical equipment.Material and methods. Clinical studies were carried out in 254 patients (277 eyes) with chalazion, including a complicated course of the disease, with cryodestruction of the chalazion using an autonomous cryoapplicator made of porous-permeable titanium nickelide.Results. Cryosystems of the new generation, in comparison with the well-known industrial cryoapparatus, diff er in new properties. They can signifi cantly improve the quality of cryotherapy in surgery due to a clearer localization of cryotherapy and a high rate of heat removal from the surface of altered tissues without damaging the surrounding tissues. Depending on the size of the pathological formation, the duration of the exposure, the frequency of repetitions of the applications during the session, the regression of the chalazion occurred within 1–1.5 months with the preservation of the integrity of the intermarginal space and the functional state of the eyelid.Conclusion. Analysis of the data obtained indicates a high clinical and cosmetic effi ciency of cryosurgery of the eyelid chalazion using an autonomous cryoapplicator made of porous-permeable titanium nickelide.

Published: December 2021

Keratoconus (KC) is a progressive degenerative corneal disease, leads to the aberration of biomechanical and optical properties and thinning of the cornea, causes astigmatism and decreases visual acuity.Materials and methods. 33 patients (35 eyes) with stages II–III of non-progressive keratoconus and concomitant cataracts of various stages of maturity were operated on. The average age of the patients was 46.5 ± 2.7 (41–63) years old. The operations were performed according to our proposed two-stage method of treating ametropia in patients with KC and cataracts (Patent of the Russian Federation No. 2748634 of 28.05.2021). The first stage was the implantation of FERRARA intrastromal corneal ring segments (ICRS) with thickness from 150 to 350 μm. To correct residual refractive error in 5–7 months after stage 1, patients underwent stage 2: cloudy lens was removed and replaced with toric posterior chamber intraocular lens (TIOL) – AcrySof IQ Toric (Alcon, USA), T-fl ex Toric RayOne (Rayner, UK).Results and discussion. After stage 1 of the operation (ICRS implantation), the uncorrected visual acuity (NCVA) was 0.2 ± 0.03, the best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) was 0.4 ± 0.02. In 1 month after stage 2 (phacoemulsifi cation + TIOL) NCVA was 0.64 ± 0.11 and BCVA was 0.74 ± 0.12. During the entire follow-up period after the surgery visual functions, refraction, and rotational stability of TIOL were stable.Conclusions. Conducting a two-stage surgical intervention in patients with keratoconus and cataracts allows to stop the progression of the disease and effectively correct the ametropia concomitant with keratoconus.
Improving the methodology for creating a medical service based on the costs of its production
Authors: Makarochkina M. V. , Sandakov Ya. P. , Sokolova L. G.
Published: December 2021

Background. Currently, the multichannel nature of financial flows determines the multivariate methods of payment for medical services, which are also influenced by the type of medical care, conditions, form of its provision, and type of institution. As a result, the cost of a medical service can vary significantly not only in different, but even in one medical organization. The lack of a unified methodological approach puts healthcare organizations in unequal conditions, as a result, public sector medical organizations are forced to seek additional resources to provide medical care to the population that meets the standards. None of the current methods for determining the cost of a medical service reflects its actual cost, since it does not take into account the structure of production costs.The aim. To improve the methodology for the formation of the cost of public services in the health care system, taking into account their resource intensity.Materials and methods. The study included the analysis of the forms of state statistical observation of medical organizations of the Irkutsk region, reports of the federal and regional accounting chambers, industry regulations, materials of scientific periodicals, conferences, monographic studies, including on the Internet; comparison of the cost of medical services in various medical organizations of the Irkutsk region; modeling methods for calculating the cost of medical services using the Cobb – Douglas production function.Results. A unified classification of medical services based on their resource intensity and an improved method of forming the cost of medical services based on the Cobb – Douglas production function are proposed, revealing the dependence of the volume of production on two factors of production – capital and labor; the cost of medical services was calculated using the example of real services provided in one of the medical organizations of the public health sector of the Irkutsk region.Conclusions. The proposed method for determining the cost of a medical service based on its resource intensity makes it possible to determine the real cost of a medical service, the full reimbursement of which will increase the financial stability of medical organizations in the public sector, which will be reflected in the improvement of their material and technical base and, as a result, will increase the quality of medical services.

Published: December 2021

Diabetes mellitus is one of the most serious medical, social, and economic health problems in all countries of the world. The incidence of diabetes mellitus in the world doubles every 10–15 years, acquiring the character of a non-infectious epidemic. Therefore, it is extremely important to search for new drugs that help normalize glycemia, prevent complications of diabetes mellitus, and improve the quality of life of patients. These drugs include “Neo inulin”, which has a hypoglycemic, antioxidant, hepatoprotective and angioprotective effect.The aim: to evaluate the effectiveness of “Neo inulin” in the complex treatment of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.Materials and methods. The study involved 18 women (average age – 64.5 ± 8.7 years, average weight – 77.8 ± 11.4 kg) and 3 men (average age – 54.6 ± 12.4 years, average weight – 114 ± 40.2 kg). The average duration of type 2 diabetes was 11.0 (7.0–12.0) years. “Neo inulin” was prescribed as 2 capsules per day for 12 weeks in the complex of basic diabetes therapy To assess the effectiveness of therapy, a study of the quality of life related to health, a biochemical blood test (glycated hemoglobin), a clinical minimum (CBC, OAM, ECG, blood glucose) was carried out, the functional characteristics of tissue blood flow were investigated, and the ankle-brachial index (ABI) was determined. Statistical processing of the results was carried out using the Statistica 6.0 software package (StatSoft Inc., USA). Differences were considered statistically significant at p < 0.05.Results. Statistically significant differences were revealed in the values of all scales of health-related quality of life in patients in the groups before and after treatment with “Neo Inulin”, including the total physical and mental components. An improvement in the functioning of microcirculatory regulation mechanisms was noted, which is confirmed by a statistically significant increase in ABI (1.0 and 0.8 on the right; 0.9 and 0.8 on the left, respectively; p < 0.05) and the coefficient of microcirculation variation (9.2 and 8.3, respectively; p < 0.05). In 57,1 % of cases (12 people), the level of glycated hemoglobin was normalized.Conclusion. The use of a treatment regimen that includes “Neo Inulin” improves the effectiveness of treatment and improves the quality of life of patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus.
The Mathematical Model for searching the Shortest Route for TB Patients with the help of Dijkstra’s Algorithm
Authors: Kamal Muhammad Ayoub , Shahid Muhammad , Khawar Hammad
Published: December 2021

In this research paper, we have studied TB (Tuberculosis) patients who come from different traffic routes in order to seek medical help and treatment in Karachi, Sindh, Pakistan. In this research work, we have focused on the transportation problems of the TB patients. These TB patients can travel on the paths having minimum distance as found out in this paper using Dijktra’s Algorithm.

People hope that they have better treatment opportunities and financial medical relief in the government and private hospitals in Karachi. There are many private hospitals in the city but unfortunately, they provide expensive treatments. As a consequence, people belonging to the poor or lower and middle classes approach government hospitals adequately. Among them, Nazimabad Chest Hospital for TB patients (under the supervision of Dow University of Health Sciences) is providing better facilities as compared to the other hospitals involved in providing medical treatments for the similar medical issues. Nazimabad Chest Hospital for TB patients is renowned for its high quality treatment of TB patients. The hospital is located inside Government Hospital Nazimabad (under the control of Dow University), Karachi. It has latest equipments, competent and qualified staff to treat TB patients. Patients have to visit the hospital on weekly basis from their homes and residences. They use several combinations of traffic routes to reach the hospital as these patients live in different areas like, Malir Cantt, Safari Park, Hassan Square, North-Nazimabad, North Karachi, Gulshan-e-Iqbal, etc.  A path or road is required which takes the least amount of time and subsequently reduces the transportation charges. In this paper, an effort has been made to locate the shortest route for the convenience for these TB patients. In this paper, a mathematical model has been developed by using the method of Dijkstra’s algorithm to attain the desired objective.

Published: December 2021

Knowledge of basic structures is prerequisite for acquiring an in-depth idea about the physiology and immunology of the lymphoid system. The study evaluates the age related histomorphometry of cecal tonsil of Sonali chicken at different postnatal stages in Bangladesh as literatures regarding this are very scarce. The investigation was carried out on 25 healthy Sonali chickens representing different stage of postnatal life: days 1, 14, 28, 42, and 56 (n=5). After ethically sacrifice (cervical subluxation method), cecal tonsil was collected and subjected for both gross and histological studies. Haematoxylin and Eosin stain was done for microscopic study. Morphologically, cecal tonsils were located bilaterally at the junction of small and large intestine. It had tubular structure and yellowish white in color. All gross parameters (weight, length, and width) found to be increased significantly (P<0.05) throughout the whole study period. Weight was measured 0.022±0.001 g at day 1 and noticed 0.181±0.016 g at the end of study tenure. The microscopic observations revealed that at day 28 encapsulated lymphatic nodules was present along with the diffuse lymphocytes at the lamina propria and submucosa layer, which was absent at the previous study groups. At day 1, only small infiltration of lymphocytes was identified and at day 14, lymphocytes were aggregating to form lymphatic nodules. After that, age related development was noticed in histological features. The findings would be a milestone to give an idea about the gut health and immune status of Sonali chicken and provide a basis for further immunization research.
Russian “Party of Power” vs Dominant Party
Authors: Nisnevich Yu. A.
Published: December 2021

The article presents a factual analysis of the origin and formation of the “party of power” in Russia. The work demonstrates that at all stages the Russian “party of power” was designed and controlled by the Administration of the President of the Russian Federation. The research carried out by the author shows that Russia’s “party of power” does not meet the criteria that would allow to qualify this political party as dominant, in any of its “incarnations”. This fully applies to the United Russia party that does not exert a significant impact on the appointments to the political and administrative positions and does not have any effect on the decisions that determine the state’s policy. The dominance of the United Russia party in the electoral field is ensured primarily by the electoral corruption, as well as by the fact that its “electoral machine” is represented by the system of public authorities at all levels, from federal to local. In turn, the dominance of this party in the State Duma and the rigid and strictly hierarchical administrative structure that it built in the lower chamber of the Russian Parliament allows the Presidential Administration to control the legislative process and parliamentary activity in general. According to the author’s conclusion, the “party of power” is an externally controlled political organization of a party type that protects the interests of Russia’s ruling nomenklatura and implements its goals in the processes of the formation of public authorities through electoral procedures, as well as in the course of the legislative and parliamentary activity. Not only does such an organization fail to meet the criteria of the dominant party, but it also fails to fully correspond to the concept of a political party per se.
Zombie of Biopower: Is the Concept Outdated?
Authors: Fokin C. V.
Published: December 2021

The article is devoted to the discussion about what the concept of biopower, developed within the framework of the postmodern critical theory, means in the context of the modern world, both in general theoretical and empirical sense. According to the author’s conclusion, although this concept remains significant for Political Science, it is largely outdated and could turn into a scientific zombie idea. Giorgio Agamben, one of the classics of Political Philosophy, who denied the danger of the COVID-19 pandemic on the basis of the methodology of biopolitics, is case in point. Another evidence comes from the fact that researchers from different countries, including Russia, increasingly look for new approaches and tools of the biopolitical analysis, and try to saturate the concept with new ideas and data. This article proposes three ways how to make biopolitical research more relevant today. One way is to rethink the normative/moral foundations of biopower, to reject an implicitly negative assessment of the concept. Another way is to expand the historical framework, to pay greater attention to historical cases that allow us to trace different stages of the evolution of biopolitical patterns, to focus on the analysis of specific manifestations of biopower in concrete situations. The third way is to move towards the synthesis of critical biopolitics and evolutionary biopolitics, which draws data from the natural sciences. According to the author, these efforts together will make it possible to move from the unidirectional asymmetric link “the political influences the bio logical” to a more complex scheme of mutual reflective influence of the political and the biological.
Practicing Communicability, Redeemability, and Educability: The Response of Christian Education to Violence against Women during the Covid-19 Pandemic
Authors: Wowor Jeniffer Fresy Porielly
Published: December 2021

This article explores violence against women in Yogyakarta, which increased rapidly during the pandemic. The study showed that violence against women is also the result of deep and troubling cultural structures that oppress women. Based on a see–judge–act analysis, this article proposes that church educational ministries can build relationships with women victims and their families through a variety of transformational ways, even amid a pandemic. The church can develop communication, healing, and education through a holistic approach in Christian education (practicing communicability, redeemability, and educability). The paradigm of gender equality should be integrated into our attitudes and actions in daily life and in the whole range of the church’s ministry to create spaces for women’s voices not only through education and ritual action but also actual transformation.

The aim. To analyze the 10-year experience in aortic coarctation endovascular stenting in patients of different age groups.

Materials and methods. Examination and endovascular treatment of 194 patients aged 3 days to 60 years with coarctation of the aorta (CoA) with different anatomical and morphological variants was performed. According to the age criterion, the examined patients were divided into 4 study groups. The first group consisted of 84 patients (43.3%) over 25 years of age, group 2 included 33 patients (17.0%) aged 19 to 25 years, group 3 included 71 patients (36.6%) aged 5 to 18 years, and group 4 included 6 patients (3.1%) under 1 year of age.

Results and discussion. We presented the clinical features of different anatomical and morphological variants of CoA. Endovascular treatment of CoA with stenting is considered the best method for adolescents and adults, due to the lower risk of aneurysm formation compared to balloon angioplasty. We were able to successfully reduce the invasive pressure gradient in patients of different ages and to establish the dependence of complication rate on the stent type used. The most common complications were aneurysm formation (2.1%) and stent migration (2.1%). Complications occurred more often in cases of uncovered stents compared to stent grafts (5.3% and 2.1%, respectively, p <0.05). No cases of hospital mortality were recorded in patients older than 5 years. Seven endovascular procedures were performed in 5 patients aged 3 days to 11 months (mean age 3.5 ± 1.6 months) with combined heart defects. Complications were documented in 1 child (20.0%). Endovascular intervention in pregnant women is indicated in refractory hypertension. We performed endovascular CoA stenting in 4 pregnant women at 15–23 weeks of gestation (average, 19.8 ± 3.1 weeks), and in 6 women with well-controlled hypertension stenting was performed within 48 hours to 5 years after delivery. In all the presented cases, successful revascularization was achieved. During follow-up (from 2 months to 10 years), all 10 women are alive, did not develop recoarctation or complications.

Conclusions. The results of the analysis of CoA endovascular treatment showed that the chosen method and technique of intervention is appropriate and safe for patients of all ages, including pregnant women. Based on the results obtained, we have developed an algorithm for the management of patients who, according to clinical examination and echocardiography, were diagnosed with CoA during pregnancy.

Authors: Koltunova Hanna B. , Voitiuk Vitalii V. , Chyzh Kostiantyn P.
Published: December 2021

Implementation of the principles of protective ventilation in the intensive care of respiratory failure in patients after COVID-19 can improve the results of treatment of patients with cardiosurgical abnormalities, namely the implementation of surgical treatment in the post-COVID-19 period. The widespread occurrence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in the world has led to a sharp decrease in the number of cardiac surgeries and had a negative impact on treatment outcomes.

Case description. Patient P., 62 years old, underwent examination and treatment from February 18 to March 3, 2021 at the National Amosov Institute of Cardiovascular Surgery of the National Academy of Medical Sciences of Ukraine with a diagnosis of infective endocarditis of the aortic valve. Aortic insufficiency. Acute heart failure. Grade III respiratory failure. Condition after bilateral polysegmental COVID-19 pneumonia, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, GOLD 2. After aortic valve replacement, plasty of aortic root abscess due to infective endocarditis of the aortic valve, the patient was admitted to the intensive care unit for further treatment. In the postoperative period, respiratory failure was observed. Given the COVID-19 pneumonia, mechanical ventilation was performed according to the recommendations for protective ventilation. The duration of mechanical ventilation was 72 hours, followed by a successful transition to self-breathing.

Conclusions. Given the initial condition of the patient with COVID-19 pneumonia, protective lung ventilation is reasonable after cardiac surgery. This issue needs further study.

Published: December 2021

Aortic arch surgery in neonatal patients remains problematic despite the constant evolution and improvement of treatment methods. Even after successful correction, complications associated with aortic arch reconstruction are more common in young children. This is especially true for newborns and infants with concomitant complex congenital intracardiac abnormalities. Despite the risk of postoperative complications, the risk of surgical treatment of aortic arch hypoplasia is lower than the cumulative hazards associated with the natural course of this defect. That is why pediatric cardiologists are obliged to constantly monitor the operated patients in order to timely identify and treat complications.

The aim. To analyze the complications in the early and remote postoperative periods after the reconstruction of the aortic arch in the neonatal period.

Materials and methods. The work is based on a study of 445 patients under 1 year of age, who underwent surgical treatment of aortic arch hypoplasia from 2010 to 2019. The criterion for inclusion in the study group was the presence of isolated hypoplasia of the aortic arch and combination with other defects, which were corrected by two-ventricular repair. The majority of the treated patients were male (284 [63.8% of the total number of patients]). The median age of the patients was 0.7 months (0.3; 2.7). The median body weight of the patients was 3.7 kg (3.25; 4.59).

Results. At the hospital stage, 12 patients died, which accounted for 3.1% of the entire cohort of operated patients. Complications occurring at the hospital stage were recorded in 75 (16.8%) patients. In the long term, a complicated course was observed in 72 (16.6%) children. Among them, the most frequent complications were: respiratory failure requiring prolonged mechanical ventilation (36.9%), dilated sternum due to severe heart failure (17.4%), diaphragmatic paresis (8.7%), chylothorax (5.4%). In the long term, 47 (10.5%) patients developed aortic arch restenosis, which required reinterventions. The proportion of patients without reoperations in the follow-up period according to the KaplanMeier analysis was 93.4% after 1 year, 91.2% after 4 years, and 76.5% after 9 years. Residual hypertension requiring medical treatment was reported in 59 (13.2%) patients.

Conclusions. Aortic arch hypoplasia is a complex congenital heart disease; its surgical treatment is accompanied by the development of complications both in the early and in the long-term period. The main complications at the hospital stage were respiratory and heart failures which were associated with the presence and correction of concomitant congenital heart defects. The main complication of the follow-up period was reobstruction at the level of the aortic arch. Anatomical correction of reobstruction is safe with both endovascular and surgical treatments.

Authors: Suteja Ricka Putri
Published: December 2021

The interaction process between each party can affect the course of the conversation. This study aims to investigate the characteristics of podcast conversations and the communication style used between two interviewers and one resource person in Catatan Psikologi's podcast entitled Quarter Life Crisis. This study used qualitative methods with a conversational analysis (CA) approach as well as collaborative communication and competitive communication theories. The process of conversations transcription used the conventions written by Du Bois. The results showed minimal response phenomena, interruptions, and overlaps in the conversation, leading to collaborative communication both at the word and sentence. However, the collaborative communication style has a more significant emergence. Based on the analysis above, the parties involved in the communication tried to build togetherness and cooperation which can be seen in the narrative. When one speaker told a story, the others also participated in the conversation by providing minimal responses, showing sympathy, and also comments or opinions.

The rise of sexual violence against women and children encourages the government to establish Government Regulation (Peraturan Pemerintah) hereafter (PP) number 70 of 2020, which contains the application of the chemical castration penalty for the offenders of sexual violence. This regulation causes pros and cons from the various parties, including women and children's observer community, selected in this case Konde.co. This study aims to discuss the attitude or position built by Konde.co toward the Government Regulation (PP) ratification concerning the chemical castration penalty for the sexual violence offenders. This research uses a qualitative approach, especially discourse analysis. The discourse analysis in this research uses the appraisal theory, which studies the attitudesystem explicitly The result of this research shows that the attitude that appears in the text is generally negative. Furthermore, the attitude aspect with the highest frequency is negative judgement.The negative attitude refers to the incompatibility and inability of the chemical castration penalty in overcoming the sexual violence problem in Indonesia. The chemical castration penalty has negative impacts, such as exacerbating sexual violence in Indonesia in the future, disturbing, like an inclement regulation, and violating human rights. The positive attitude refers to the PP’s capacity for the chemical castration penalty of the sexual violence offenders in upholding the rights of the underprivileged. Other priorities that Konde.co considers more critical in overcoming the sexual violence problem are the recovery of the victims and the immediate ratification of the Bill on the Elimination of Sexual Violence.

Complimenting is a typical speaking act and the method in which it is responded to can vary based on the culture of the speakers as well as the influence of other circumstances. The purpose of this study was to provide a more in-depth knowledge of compliment response research based on how it is used by university students learning EFL in everyday life. Furthermore, this study also aims at finding out if exposure to another culture affects university students learning English as a second language while responding to compliments. The data were garnered using data elicitation method by complimenting the participants’ look, possession, character, or aptitude. The finding found that the participants used ten types of responses; listed from the most frequently used type of compliment responses to the least used type of compliment responses: Comment Acceptance (8), Appreciation Token (2), Comment History (2), Question (2), Praise Upgrade (1), Reassignment (1), Return (1), Scale Down (1), Disagreement (1), and Qualification (1). According to the data, the majority of students in an international English literature class at Brawijaya University are likely to accept the compliments. Students tend to take compliments by thanking them and then making related comments. English-speaking countries consider a simple "thank you" to be an adequate response to a praise. This present study also confirms that short term encounterance with foreign culture exposure slightly affect EFL learners’ way of responding to compliments. This shows that the students learn the English language culture in terms of compliment.

This research was focused on taboo words used in Deli Javananese dialect. It was aimed at describing the classification of taboo words used in Deli Javanese dialect namely sex; death; excretion; bodily functions; religious matters; and politics and to investigate how frequent the taboo words were used by Javanese community in Karang Sari village of Medan city, North Sumatera.  The descriptive qualitative method was applied by describing taboo words used by the Javanese communtiy. The approach is sociolinguistics, which studies the perspectives of using taboo words among society in Deli Javanese dialect. The data were collected by interviewing three informants with different ages, and taking a note to identify the data of this research. The result showed that there were 18 taboo words found in Deli Javanese dialect and they were classified into six types of taboo word as mentioned before. It also showed that the causes of using taboo words were to express the emotion, such as anger, happiness, and surprises, to talk about sex, to joke and to insult. Hopefully all the findings may give some contributions and references for any further researches related to the use of taboo words within any language and also as communication guidance especially for speakers not to use taboo words.

Published: December 2021

Problem statement. The transition in Ukraine from registration and accounting of land in the State Land Cadastre to registration and accounting of real estate in the multi-purpose cadastre requires research aimed at optimizing the information of the multi-purpose cadastre and the form of data representation based on their digitalization to limit the size of the database by technological support. The composition and scope of real estate accounting information data determine the purpose and functions of the multi-purpose cadastre. The problem is the huge amount of information about real estate and the great variety of objects. The difficulty of formalizing too much data for a multi-purpose cadastre information system makes it necessary to explore ways to reduce the amount of software memory involved by digitizing the data. Purpose of the article. Solving the problem of reducing the amount of memory for the database of registration and accounting of real estate through digitalization requires research on the composition of the necessary information about real estate in the multi-purpose cadastre to ensure the functions of the cadastre based on analysis of users' needs. In order to move from the information on real estate determined by the results of analysis to the basic and thematic geospatial data of the cadastre, it is necessary to perform multilevel structuring of cadastral objects at the level of real estate classification, including land plots, construction objects by characteristic legal, technical and value features. A significant reduction in the amount of memory used in the database of information technology support of the multi-purpose cadastre was achieved by coding the characteristics of real estate, including land, construction objects and other land improvements that are part of real estate. Conclusion. Digitization of real estate data in the multi-purpose cadastre allows you to: significantly reduce the amount of database memory used on the server; provide easy access to data on real estate properties; significantly increase the protection of identification of cadastral objects and their properties; opens new opportunities for real estate management, control over compliance with the law, the application of targeted measures to stimulate the desired development of real estate and prevent adverse use of territories.

Authors: NASONOVA S.S.
Published: December 2021

Problem statement. The problems of optimal structural redundancy of systems are usually formulated as a nonlinear problem of mathematical programming with integer variables, and to solve them, usually, various optimization methods are used, which requires the development of special algorithms and appropriate software. However, in the case of clarifying the original task of optimal redundancy, there is often a need to adjust the developed algorithms and software. All this greatly complicates obtaining the desired results. Another approach to solving problems of optimal redundancy of systems is the use of office information technology, the tool environment of which is adapted to solve mathematical problems, including optimization problems. This approach does not require the development of special algorithms and software. However, issues related to the effectiveness of the information technology used to solve this problem require further scientific and practical study. This article formulates a model of optimal design of redundant systems according to the criterion of minimum cost while ensuring the required level of reliability during a given time. This model is written in terms of a nonlinear problem of mathematical programming with integer variables and is numerically implemented in the operating environment of an Excel spreadsheet when the main object of the designed system consists of 6 elements. The optimal options for reserving this object according to the schemes of "hot" and "cold" redundancy are obtained. The purpose of the article is to show the effectiveness and efficiency of the MS Excel spreadsheet to solve problems of optimal structural redundancy of systems. Conclusions. This article discusses issues related to the problem of solving problems of optimal design of redundant systems in the tool environment of the MS Excel spreadsheet. Examples of solving the problems of separate "hot" and separate "cold" redundancy of a 6-element object prove the effectiveness and efficiency of the MS Excel spreadsheet to solve this problem. In addition, the developed optimization model can be successfully used in practical tasks to ensure the reliability of technical systems in the early stages of their design.
