Indexikalische Leistungen der Modalpartikeln und ihre natürlichkeitstheoretische Bewertung
Authors: Petrič Teodor
Published: July 2021

Statistische Auszählungen zeigen, daß Modalpartikeln (Abtönungspartikeln) als eine prototypische Erscheinung bestimmter Textsorten angesehen werden können. Insgesamt läßt sich sagen, daß die Partikeln und selbst die zahlenmäßig kleine Funktionsklasse der Modalpartikeln in Texten erstaunlich oft vorkommen. Zu den 5000 in Kaedings Korpus häufigsten Wörtern gehören die Partikeln eben, denn, doch, ~. nur, schon, vielleicht (Meier 1978).

Il  presente saggio trae spunto da un attento riesame del materiale che ho raccolto ed analizzato per la mia tesi di dottorato di ricerca dal titolo Poljedelska in vi­ nogradniska terminologija v govorih Slovenske Istre (La terminologia agricola e viticola nelle parlate dell'lstria slovena), tesi che ho discusso presso la Facoltà di Filosofia di Lubiana il 14 gennaio 1994, relatore il prof. Tine Logar, correlatore la prof. Alenka Šivic-Dular. L'opera si inserisce nel filone di ricerche lessicali orientate a ri­ scrivere la storia linguistica di questa regione così complessa per le innumerevoli vicende storiche e per i molteplici contatti linguistici tuttora fertili.
Varietas delectat, Vermischte Beitrage zur Lust an romanischer Dialektologie ergänzt um Anmerkungen aus verwandten Disziplinen, herausgegeben von Roland Bauer, Harald Fröhlich, Dieter Kattenbusch; Gottfried Egert Verlag, Wilhelmsfeld 1993, IX + 222 pagi
Authors: Tekavčić Pavao
Published: July 2021

Il presente volume omaggio, dedicato ai cinquant' anni del noto dialettologo aus­ triaco Hans Goebl e curato da tre suoi colleghi, si distingue dalle pubblicazioni analoghe che il sottoscritto ha avuto occasione di recensire finora. Infatti, il sottotitolo maschera un po' il fatto che Varietas delectat consta di due componenti assai di­ verse. Dei diciotto contributi, cioè, dodici trattano argomenti scentifici (sui temi vicini all'attivita scientifica del festeggiato) e sono pertanto di contenuto e tono serio (ma non senza venature esilaranti); al contrario, gli altri sei sono di tenore anacreontico-umoris­ tico, con un sense of humour (p. V) ed elementi di bonaria parodia. Le ragioni sono spiegate nella prefazione (pp. V-VI), ma molte allusioni restano incomprensibili ai «non addetti». I sei contributi col sense of humour sono senz'altro spiritosi, divertenti, origi­ nali, ma è indubbio che stonano col resto del volume, il che può dare un certo fastidio a chi - come il sottoscritto recensente - non è troppo portato per tali eterogeneità. Ognuno dei collaboratori, .dicono i curatori (p. VI), rappresenta innumerevoli altri studiosi, col­ leghi, amici, discepoli; e in effetti, accanto alla romanistica vi sono presenti anche la germanistica, la slavistica e la linguistica computazionale (loco cit.). [È ovvio, tuttavia, che la linguistica computazionale non è una categoria coordinata alle tre «-istiche».]

E' con profonda commozione che mi accingo a stendere una  breve recensione dell' opera postuma che porta il nome di Gianfranco Folena, scomparso prematuro nel 1992. Con l'italianistica di Ljubljana Folena ebbe rapporti amichevoli. A due riprese aveva fatto conferenze molto sentite e ci ha conquistati, oltre che con la sua dettagliata esposizione dei fatti e la perspicace analisi linguistica e filologica (ricordo ancora la conferenza sulla lingua nel Piovano Arlotto), anche con la sua affascinante pronuncia toscana. A me personalmente ha sempre elargito consigli (ebbi con lui un primo incon­ tro nel lontano 1952 a Firenze, lui, allora, assistente di Bruno Migliorini, e l'ultimo, solo telefonico, nel 1991) quando io, novello, incominciavo a produrre. Folena ha reso possibile la pubblicazione nelle riviste linguistiche italiane dei miei primi scritti e gliene sono sinceramente grato.

Multivariate Statistical Evaluation of Geochemical Data from Quartz Vein-Associated Gold Mineralisation at the Badukrom Prospect within the Tarkwaian Base
Authors: Osei K. P. , Affam M. , Kusi-Manu C. , Kwapong D. T.
Published: July 2021

The Kawere conglomerate at the base of the Tarkwaian Group in the Iduapriem Mine appears to show good prospect for hydrothermal gold mineralisation evidenced by major structures mapped from magnetic and Airborne Electromagnetic (AEM) geophysical data. Detailed geological mapping and sampling at Badukrom target which lies within the Kawere rocks confirm the presence of multiple structures as well as quartz veins indicative of potential hydrothermal gold mineralisation. Follow up soil sampling conducted within the area revealed a strong anomalous trend from the southern portion. Two diamond drilled (DD) holes pushed to delineate the extent of the anomalous zones returned narrow veins of significant gold intersections. Twenty-five (25) samples of the Badukrom hydrothermal Au mineralisation intersects were sent for analysis to ascertain the optimum pathfinder element suite for the hydrothermal targets within the Iduapriem concession. A total of fifty-nine elements were analysed via ICP-MS and ICP-OES. Multivariate statistical evaluation was carried out on the results to understand the geochemical associations of Au and the other elements to aid future exploration programmes planned for the hydrothermal targets. Multivariate analysis of the geochemical data using Pearson product-moment of correlation suggests a stronger positive correlation of gold with Iron, Antimony, Sulphur, Chromium, Vanadium respectively. However, the Spearman Rank correlation data indicates that, the optimum pathfinder elements for hydrothermal Au are: As, Sb and Te.

Published: July 2021

With the increasing technological advancement and adoption in palm production, this study examined the economic viability of palm oil  production in Nsukka Local Government Area (LGA) of Enugu state. Specifically, the study determined the socioeconomic characteristics of palm oil producers, different production techniques adopted, costs and return and the constraints that mitigate palm oil production of the farmers. Primary data were collected with the aid of a well-structured questionnaire from 50 palm oil producers selected randomly from the population. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, and gross margin model. In addition to the use of traditional production techniques, producers were identified to be using machine for their production (modern technique) and a combination of both. The gross margin analysis showed that the enterprise is viable and profitable. The study identified inaccessibility of palm fruits, high cost of harvesting, unavailability of human labour, and long duration of processing as the major constraints to palm oil production. The study recommended among others that producers need to form groups in other to be able to purchase modern machines as this will help in their production and also improve the rural infrastructures as it will help to reduce the transportation and the high cost of production challenges faced by farmers especially palm oil farmers/producers in Nsukka LGA of Enugu State.
“Let there be No Quarrel among Us” (Genesis 13:8-9): Using Abraham’s Model for Restructuring in Nigeria
Authors: Okolo Ekenedilichukwu A. , Oziezi Christian
Published: July 2021

Nigeria is blessed with so many natural resources which are the principal sources of income through which she is sustained. Disparity in the income so generated has been posing a serious challenge to almost every Nigerian administration on the ratio for its sharing, hence  becoming a major problem and challenge affecting federal practice in Nigeria. The problem of resource control and restructuring so noticed has been as a result of disagreement within the three tiers of government of which no one seems to accept to sacrifice some pleasures in order to ensure that peace is attained. It will be germane to posit that for there to be a restructuring in Nigeria that will be effectively sustained and generally satisfactory, the Abraham’s model must be adopted who gave Lot his nephew the opportunity to choose from the best part of the vast arable land so that there may be no quarrel among them. In this regard therefore, Abraham is seen as a leader who is endowed with virtues of love, peace, selflessness and sacrifice and must be emulated by Nigeria leaders if restructuring will be achieved. This work adopts a sociological method and will be theoretically framed with relative deprivation theory. The paper observes that there has been tussle within the tiers of government on the sharing formula which has not been generally accepted. Secondly, it discovers that there has been agitations by the host states on resource control and restructuring which is not workable for the federal government, it goes on to observe that Abraham’s model could help to solve the problem if the federal government assumes the role of Abraham by allowing producing states to determine the percentage of the allocation. It finally observes that there has been lack of a leader who has the vision and willingness to handle the problem once and for all which has made the problems to continue lingering. The paper therefore recommends that the tiers of government should be willing to make sacrifices in order to ensure a harmonious and peaceful co-existence. The work also recommends the need for visionary and selfless leaders who will sincerely tackle and implement true and acceptable federalism for the good of the common man.
Re-imagining Funerary Rites in the Context of Covid-19
Authors: Ratau Nelson S , Monyela Ntsofa C , Mofokeng Neo R
Published: July 2021

Covid-19 has brought about unsuspected possibilities and death on a large global scale since its advent on the shores of the global community in early March of 2020. The novel pandemic has undoubtedly challenged and changed the normative operations of the social, political and economic activities all across the globe. Religious fraternities and activities have experienced challenging dynamics in how fellowship and worship are practised. Businesses and the entertainment industry have their share of suffering and enduring the suspending effect that has since been forcefully occasioned by the strategic global lockdown. The labour market metrics have realised a drastic decline due to companies closing down owing to the challenges that Covid-19 has rendered against their financial fragility and profit share. Academic institutions have also seen drastic challenges and a need for change in how they perform their curricula duties in the unpredictable context of Covid-19. Evidently, the advent of the Coronavirus has pointedly offered the nations of the world an opportunity to re-imagine a number of issues and social conducts. With millions of people dying across the globe, funerals
have taken a new, strange turn in how the rites of passage for the deceased are practised. In light of this, the current essay presents the argument around re-imagining funerary rites in the Covid-19 context. The paper adopts Victor Tuner’s theoretical assumptions of ritual purported in his text entitled The Ritual Process: Structure and Anti-Structure, so as to theoretically problematise the idea of re-imagining funerary rites in the undesirable ‘new normal’? situation of Covid-19.

Authors: Sunil Kumar M., , Narayanappa C. K., , Nagendra Kumar M.
Published: July 2021

Researchers and industry experts are looking for the availability of large bandwidth spectrum due to high market demands and expectations for high data rates. And Millimeter Wave technology possess characteristics to fulfill these requirements. However, due to high power consumption and channel estimation requirements, massive MIMO is utilized in coordination with Millimeter Wave technology. Besides, the performance of mm-WAVE MIMO system is measured by the effective estimation of Channel State Information (CSI) which is a critical and challenging process. Therefore, a Sparse Coding based Reconstruction Learning (SCL) mechanism is presented to efficiently estimate Channel State Information (CSI) for Millimeter-WAVE massive Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system. For efficiency enhancement, joint sparse learning problem is formulated and a denoised joint sparsity learning matrix is obtained using proposed SCL mechanism. Here, optimization of joint sparse learning problem is summarized by reducing inconsistent and overfitting errors. The proposed SCL mechanism performs well under high as well as low SNR conditions. Moreover, joint sparse coding algorithm is utilized for efficient sparse signal restoration. The performance of proposed SCL mechanism is efficiently measured against several state-of-art-algorithms in terms of energy efficiency, NMSE, channel capacity etc.

Published: July 2021

A detection of fake news is difficult due to limited publicly available resources (Datasets). Fake news is a false information which present in news or stories, blog so on. Fake news easily spread and damage the reputation of person or an organisation, therefore, detection of fake news is important. This project work detects fake news using unsupervised and deep learning algorithms. In unsupervised learning method One Class SVM (Support Vector Machine) and in deep learning method Hybrid CNN-RNN is implemented. Experimental results with NEWS dataset showed an accuracy of 58% for One Class SVM and 96.4% for Hybrid CNN-RNN. The proposed method performs better in terms of application performance compared to already existing Machine learning algorithms. This project can be further extended by exploiting high dimensional datasets in future.

The Fundamental Elements of Rhethoric and their Impact on Music Art
Authors: Oliinyk Oleksandr L.
Published: July 2021

The article is devoted to the fundamental positions of rhetoric and their embodiment in music, which corresponds to the modern conditions of performing art activity. The methodological basis of the article is the position of linguistic musicology, presented by the heirs of B. Asafiev’s school in Ukraine, in which the concept of “musical vocabulary of the era” holds an honorable place. Particular attention is devoted to the features of stringed and plucked instruments, which make up the specifics and emblem of national Ukrainian art. The laws of rhetoric, especially the inventio principles, fixing the tone-sound specifics of expressive sound production were studied. The intensity of the artistic component in the creative construction of the instrumental playing and in the essence of the artist’s performing position was determined. The scientific novelty of work determined theoretical innovation for the Ukrainian musicology of the problem of rhetorical inventio in music and its application in musicological discourse.
Academization of the Ukrainian Bandura by the Proficient Bandura-Craftsmens of the XX – Early XXI Centuries
Authors: Zinkiv Iryna Ya.
Published: July 2021

Among the main signs of Ukrainian culture, its instrumental artifact, the bandura, which is the nation-building component of Ukraine, holds a significant place. The proposed paper attempts to characterize the bandura development from the diatonic instrument at the beginning of XX century, developed by the prominent Ukrainian bandura craftsmen in their creative activity – O. Korniievskyi, I. Skliar, V. Herasymenko, – to the modern “chromatic” instrument with dual-diatonic scale, wide sound range and technical characteristics. Only two from among several play methods that existed in the traditional popular-professional performance of the past epochs became firmly established before the twenties of XX century – Chernihiv method, subsequently named as Kyiv method, and Kharkiv method. Each was associated with different way of holding the instrument – perpendicular to and parallel to the performer's body. In both cases, the performers held the bandura vertically, pointing the neck upwards, which was consistent with the stable parameters of the national instrumental tradition of performing on zittern-like instruments. Starting with psalters depicted, in particular, on the fresco “Musicians” at the Cathedral of St. Sofia and other iconographic artifacts of the Middle Ages and Baroque era. The paper considers the academicization of both bandura types in terms other prominent bandura craftsmen activity, who worked during the Soviet period as part of big associations – Chernihiv and Lviv Factories of Musical Instruments. Particular emphasis is placed on the activities of craftsmen of the Chernihiv Academic Bandura – O. Korniievskyi, designer of one of the first modern hybrid instruments, and V. Tuzychenko, an adherent of the Chernihiv Bandura. The development of not only the Chernihiv-Kyiv but also the Kharkiv bandura types is associated with the name of I. Skliar. The work of Lviv craftsman and prominent bandura player V. Herasymenko on the creation of the Lviv-type bandura and new models of Kharkiv diatonic and “chromatic” bandura, which are nowadays adapted to the tradition of modern bandura performance, became the turning point in the activity of prominent Ukrainian craftsmen.

Published: July 2021

In most regions of the country, early damage of elevated water tanks during their service life is becoming an increasing concern. The majority of damage occurs in tanks due to a lack of knowledge in design and ignoring continuity effect. Elevated water tank are used for storage of water at certain height and supplying water for essential usage. Hence damage of such structure endanger supply of drinking water and severe economical losses. The main purpose of this research is to determine the importance of continuity analysis in practical application and use of staadpro software to analyse an elevated circular water tank. The bottom joint of water tank is examined using continuity effect. This is the common joint where base slab, wall, bottom rings beam, gallery, column and base beam join. water tank is subjected to self-weight and hydrostatic Pressure due to water. Continuity effect increase stress, Hoop tension, BM hence its necessary to consider its effect while designing the tank. The results obtained from staadpro software is nearly same with manual result. This indicated that staadpro is suitable for design and analysis of water tanks. Three model having capacity of 55 m3, 125 m3 and 221 m3 situated in yavatmal, buldana and ramtek district is taken for analysis. Seismic analysis and wind analysis is also carried out on this model for safety purpose.

Published: July 2021

To design an efficient communication system, controlling the energy present in the side lobes of the far-field pattern is essential with a considered antenna array. This paper discussed one method for synthesizing a thin antenna array for optimizing three objectives simultaneously. They are several active elements, peak SLL and FNBW. All these objectives are in contrast in nature. This multi-objective technique furnishes appreciable flexibility for any specified application. A planar array antenna of 20X10 and 10X10 is synthesized using modified BPSO and in the position updating equation, a modified sigmoid function is used, including spread distance. Numerical results state that MBPSO performs well, and the array antenna of 20X10 with 54% filled aperture (108 elements) produces maximum PSLL and FNBW of -19.28dB and 280 in the remaining ∅ plane, respectively. The pattern representation in the far-field at three cutting planes with low PSLL’s of -20dB.Whereas 10X10 planar array antenna with 52% thinning percentage produces the best PSLL of -22.04 dB and -23.44 dB in ∅=00 & 900principal planes, respectively. The FNBW has observed in two planes is around 310. And also achieved a compromised solution of PSLL and FNBW of -19.28 dB and 270, respectively.

In this Advanced world, Technology is playing the major role. Most importantly development in Electronics field has a large impact on the improved life style. Among the advanced applications, DSP ranks first in place. Multipliers are the most basic elements that are widely used in the Digital Signal Processing (DSP) applications. Therefore, the design of the multiplier is the main factor for the performance of the device. Using RTL simulation and a Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA), we compare the performance of a serial multiplier with an advanced multiplier. Many single bit adders are removed and replaced with multiplexers in this project. So that the less often used FPGAs are fully used by occupying fewer divisions and slices. The use of multiplier architecture results in significant reductions in FPGA resources, latency, area, and power. These multiplication approaches are created utilizing RTL simulation in Xilinx ISE simulator and synthesis in Xilinx ISE 14.7. Finally, the Spartan 3E FPGA is used to implement the design.

At present, CSR is indeed one of the most debated and discussed topic. Therefore, the purpose of this project is to find out whether the CSR projects undertaken by a company would help to safeguard consumer’s preferences and reduced the poverty of the consumer. This study has discouraged authors to recognize that CSR has a positive impact on consumers’ behaviour. In many cases, these projects have enabled the company to recruit new employees to the business, thus reduced employee recruitment cost. The selected group’s principal CSR efforts are driven by the central corporate theme of water and are planned and executed by the “Bindu” Foundation established by the Group for the purpose. These efforts represent a long-term commitment to increasing the availability of water and the provision of safe drinking water to those most in need. Mainly, their CSR projects are based on categories such as; Education, Health, Community Live-hood Development, Environment, Arts and Culture. The company embrace following CSR projects under these categories. Ran Daru Thilina, Model Village, Blood Drive, P.A.C.E program, Care for Their Own project, and Rasadiya Mangallaya.

Di era digital ini, perkembangan media baru telah melahirkan suatu bentuk jurnalisme baru yaitu jurnalisme warga, dimana pelaporan berita tidak dilakukan oleh jurnalis profesional, melainkan warga biasa. Beragam jenis media baru, terutama media sosial, telah membuka kesempatan bagi khalayak umum untuk dapat berpartisipasi dalam proses penyampaian informasi sebagai sumber berita kepada masyarakat luas. Kepopuleran jurnalisme warga semakin berkembang pesat, yang ditandai dengan penggunaan konten jurnalisme warga sebagai produk berita yang ditayangkan di media massa konvensional. Produk jurnalisme warga mampu menyajikan informasi yang luput dari peliputan jurnalis media konvensional, untuk disebarluaskan sebagai produk berita kepada masyarakat. Artikel ini bertujuan untuk menganalisis bagaimana pemanfaatan media sosial instagram dalam mendukung aktivitas jurnalisme warga, serta implikasi pemanfaatan jurnalisme warga terhadap media konvensional. Penelitian dilakukan menggunakan metode kualitatif dengan teknik studi literatur. Dari hasil penelitian disimpulkan bahwa media massa konvensional sangat terbantu oleh hasil peliputan jurnalisme warga, dan saat ini media sosial instagram merupakan media sosial yang paling diminati warga dalam mencari informasi terkait reportase jurnalisme warga. Meski demikian, perkembangan jurnalisme warga tak luput dari problematika terkait penerapan etika jurnalistik yang seringkali tidak dilakukan, sebab jurnalisme warga dilakukan oleh amatir yang tidak memiliki latar belakang pengetahuan di bidang jurnalistik.

Yellow-vented Bulbul (Pycnonotus goiavier), ZebraDove (Geopelia striata), Jungle Myna (Acridotheres fuscus), Common Myna (Acridotheres tristis)and White-throat Kingfisher (Halcyon smyrnensis) were commonly spotted during this study. Acheck on the conservation status in the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species indicates that there isa need to add more data on avifauna in this area for conservation planning and management.
SUSY Perceptions Reveal Standard Model Contradictions: Gravity Absence, Hierarchy Problem, Antimatter Puzzle, Muon g-2 Results, Anti-Down Quark Domination

Published: July 2021

The road map in this research proves that the universe emerged from SUSY. Proving that, we link between two different classes of SM, fermions, and bosons in supersymmetry with their properties in the Standard Model of particle physics. According to SM properties, the bosons have spin one, while fermions have spin 1/2. We suggest differentiating between bosons and fermions angular momentum in our real world with a supersymmetrical state. We presume that bosons and fermions in their supersymmetric environment will have akin graviton spin angular momentum 2, while their superpartners will have spin one. In addition to that, in the supersymmetric environment, the fermion, boson, and their counterparts experience CPT conservation. They enjoy eternity with "Gravitons." Once upon a time, the boson and fermion descended from a supersymmetric state down through string theories' dimensions and M-theory's branes, stabilizing and forming SM quarks and, therefore, everything in our real world
Expansão das instituições de ensino superior e as dinâmicas espaciais intraurbanas em Montes Claros-MG

O processo urbanização de Montes Claros, assim como o de muitas cidades médias brasileiras, ocorreu de maneira intensa num curto espaço de tempo. A industrialização, incentivada pelo Estado na década de 1970, foi um dos fatores responsáveis pela urbanização em Montes Claros. Passados vários anos, a indústria não representa mais a atividade preponderante na economia municipal. O terciário despontou como o mais importante e, atualmente, Montes Claros é a principal referência nesse setor na região Norte de Minas. Atividades comerciais e a oferta de serviços, notadamente na área de saúde e educação, têm alterado a dinâmica intraurbana. Assim, este artigo objetivou analisar algumas dinâmicas espaciais intraurbanas advindas da expansão das Instituições de Ensino Superior – IES em Montes Claros. A abordagem metodológica consistiu em pesquisa bibliográfica, levantamento de dados secundários, trabalhos de campo e realização de entrevistas com representantes das IES, imobiliárias e empreendimentos comerciais e de serviços no entorno das instituições, sistematização das informações e a elaboração de mapas. Como resultado, verificou-se que a expansão do Ensino Superior em Montes Claros passou a atrair pessoas de diversas localidades e, consequentemente, demandas por moradias, bens e serviços, sobretudo nas imediações das IES, dinamizando áreas específicas e nelas se concentrando, com demandas de diversas ordens e mudanças no espaço do entorno.

Klasik Türk şiiri genel yapısı itibari ile Osmanlı toplumunun kültürel ve sosyolojik yapısını metinlerde farklı imge ve hayallerle birlikte yansıtması bakımından önem arzetmektedir. Bir toplumun ve milletin genel karakteristik yapısını simgeleyen mekânlar şiirlerin de ana malzemesi olmuştur. Divan şiirinin aşkı merkeze koyduğu metinlerde, bu olgunun baş aktörü olan sevgiliyi betimlemelerinde güzellikle ilgili benzetmelerde somut göstergelere başvurdukları zamanlarda güzelliği sembolize eden objelerden biri olan putlar da bunların arasında yer alır. Sanem, nigar gibi kavramlar insan sanatının ürünleri olup, estetik olarak kusursuz güzelliği temsil ederler. Bu objelerin yer aldığı mekânlar ise bu anlam etrafında şekil bulmuştur.
Bu çalışmada klasik Türk şiiri metinleri incelenerek put ve putla ilgili kavramların bu şiirin anlam dünyasındaki yeri tespit edilmeye çalışılmıştır.

Published: July 2021

Preventing and combating phenomenon of tax evasion is a present concern of national governments due to the magnitude this phenomenon represents and because of the increasingly sophisticated techniques used by the authors in carrying out tax frauds. Evolution of tax evasion phenomenon at international level has acquired a profound technological character due to the increasingly elaborate methods. Illegal behaviour has some specific features that could be recognized easily by artificial intelligence models. They use real data in order to derive characteristics that could be identified in due time so that tax avoidant behaviour be identified and prevented. The use of forecasting models like logistic regression, random forests or decision trees in order to model tax avoidant behaviour shows having a good predictive power. Also, the use of the neural networks allowed scientists to calculate probability of an individual taxpayer that would attempt to evade taxes or commit other types of financial frauds. Scientific literature shows an increasing interest in using neural networks to detect and predict fraudulent behaviour in the fields of tax avoidance and financial domain. Cybercrime, cryptocurrency and blockchain were created in order to facilitate payments and help owner in accumulating wealth. Current landscape of financial frauds shows a different picture. Intracommunity frauds are more and more diversified. European Union and International bodies act together to prevent and combat fraud. Could these new technologies possess a real threat to the financial security of our transactions or encourage fraudulent behaviour? This paper tries to find the answer to this question.
