A Pilot Study Assessing Short-Term Chromatic Adaptation Preferences for Correlated Colour Temperature in India
Authors: Dugar Amardeep M. , Agarwal Dashak
Published: March 2019

This small-scale pilot study investigates peoples’ shortterm chromatic adaptation preferences for correlated colour temperature (CCT) within the cultural context of India. White tone CCT preferences were investigated using a spectrally tuneable LED lighting system. A mock-up room was built and illuminated with two LED luminaires. Each LED luminaire has 216 clusters and each cluster comprising three LED with CCT equal respectively to 3000 K, 4000 K and 6500 K (total 648 LEDs per luminaire). User preference studies in a generic environment were conducted with 50 Indian subjects, where each subject performed generic everyday activities, such as reading, watching TV, eating and relaxing, while being totally immersed in three different scenes of 3000 K, 4000 K and 6500 K. The study shows 6500 K is the least preferred CCT, and 4000 K is preferred for task-oriented activities such as reading and eating. Furthermore, subjects are unable to differentiate between 3000 K and 4000 K while performing non-task-oriented activities such as relaxing and watching TV.

Published: March 2019

This paper is the initials of DDoS mitigation, the goal of this research is to detect NTP Amplification as early as possible so that the victim have a data to do further eskalation process. We knows that the goal of the attacker using NTP Amplification Attack is to exhaust the bandwidth of the victim, in this research also simulate an NTP amplification scenario and detection method; the scenario is the attacker sends requests with spoofed IP MONLIST victim to the compromised NTP server NTP server then responds the large volumes of traffic (amplified traffic) towards Victim to consume the bandwidth so as the legitimate user could not access the services. We put DDoS detection device side of the victim, we combine several monitoring tools to detect NTP amplification i.e bandwidth gauge and netflow analyzer. Netflow analyzer (flow analysis) conduct analysis IP packet header that is sent by the router as a flow-exporter. In our experiment, we could perform early detection of the NTP amplification less than 2 minute.
Benefit and Risk Assessment for Having Disaster Recovery in Cloud Computing for Banking Industry: Go/No-Go Decision Making Model
Authors: Sutedja Krisdian Eko
Published: March 2019

Over the past year, we all have been showed many cloud-based solutions for so many purposes, starting from the public storage facilities to the disaster recovery solutions. We have learned that enterprises need to pay more attention to the cybersecurity, especially for the banking industry. The bank needs to encompass all that protects the bank from the attacks, breaches, disruptions, and incidents and also the consequences, but still need to reduce costs. So as the result, the solutions need to be aligned with all of the other aspects within the bank, which include the governance, management and risk assurance. The idea of having the disaster recovery in the cloud have to also consider the information security aspects, as the bank is trying to get the maximum benefit that the bank can get from the cloud like to minimize the cost needed by the bank’s activities, but still need to consider the results of the risk assessment as one of the requirement in implementing the cloud solutions. The other thing that the bank has to consider is the compliance aspect.

Authors: Hermawan Hendra
Published: March 2019

Development a visual-guided autonomous arm robot for general working application in service workshop require some preliminary works/research to ensure the quality and reliability of robot mainly on object detection/recognition and object pose estimation. We have experimented robot vision for this purpose using Raspberry Pi and single web camera supported by Python-OpenCV programming using color-base and contour-base detection algorithm for object recognition and Triangulation similarity method for object pose estimation. Experiment results showed that color-base detection is 22% faster than contour-based object detection for colorful tooling object without disturbance same color from environment. However, contour-base detection is more effective for target working object detection than color-base. Light illumination and disturbance from environment should be managed for successful object detection. Triangulation linearity method is simple and fastest method for tooling object position estimation when tooling object is a known sized object. Experiment result showed error only 2% for distance estimation using this method compared with actual.

Case Report of a Phototoxic Reaction after Application of a Footbath with Herbal Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)
Authors: E. Bachmeier Beatrice , Hager Stefan , Melchart Dieter
Published: March 2019

This case report indicates a complication of a footbath with herbs, self-applied by a patient at home. A 60 year old female patient presented herself at the TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine) hospital, Bad Kötzting, Germany with the main symptoms of persistent coughing fits and disturbing smells especially during meals. At admission, she was administered a high dose Chinese herbal therapy complementary to her already prescribed pharmaceuticals. During her sojourn in the hospital she started suffering from numbness in both feet, preferred on the dorsum, and up to and including the toes, accompanied with a sensation of cold. Therefore TCM herbal footbaths containing 5g Psoraleae fructus semen (Buguzhi) were administered, twice a day, for 2 weeks, during the hospital stay without any complications. One week after discharge from the hospital she went on with her footbaths, prescribed for outpatient treatment. Buguzhi is suspected to cause phototoxic reactions under sunlight. Unfortunately, the patient applied the prescription-based footbath under a parasol in her garden. This seems to be the reason, why the patient developed an erythema bullosa grade three. She was treated with antibiotics for 10 days and ointment bandages until remission. To avoid similar adverse events in future, patients have to be informed to not expose their skin to solar irradiation during or after footbaths containing Buguzhi. Alternatively it has to be considered to omit Buguzhi for the use of footbaths applied as outpatient treatment.
The Relationship Between Parental Attachment and Mobile Phone Dependence Among Chinese Rural Adolescents: The Role of Alexithymia and Mindfulness
Authors: Li Xiaoqing , Hao Chenrui
Published: March 2019

Mobile phone has experienced a significant increase in popularity among adolescents in recent years. Findings indicate dependence on mobile phone is related to poor parent-child relationship. However, previous research on mobile phone dependence (MPD) is scant and mainly focus on adult samples. In this view, the present study investigated the association between parental attachment and MPD as well as its influence mechanism, in sample of adolescents in rural China. Data were collected from three middle schools in rural areas of Jiangxi and Hubei Province (N = 693, 46.46% female, Mage = 14.88, SD = 1.77). Participants completed the Inventory of Parent and Peer Attachment (IPPA), the twenty-item Toronto alexithymia scale (TAS-20), the Mindful Attention Awareness Scale (MAAS) and the Mobile Phone Addiction Index Scale (MPAI). Among the results, parental attachment negatively predicted MPD and alexithymia were exerting partial mediation effect between parental attachment and MPD. Further, mindfulness acted as moderator of the relationship between alexithymia and MPD: The negative impact of alexithymia on MPD was weakened under the condition of high level of mindfulness. Knowledge of this mechanism could be useful for understanding adolescents’ MPD in terms of the interaction of multiple factors.

Published: March 2019

Introducción: El suicidio es la segunda causa de muerte no natural a nivel mundial, por lo que es evidente que la prevención, evaluación y su tratamiento son imprescindibles. Objetivo: evaluar el perfil de un grupo de pacientes con depresión atendidos en un servicio de salud mental público en formato grupal. Las variables evaluadas son: la ideación suicida, la desesperanza, el perfil los trastornos de personalidad, los niveles ansiedad, la inteligencia emocional, la autoestima y la calidad de vida subjetiva. Método: esta evaluación forma parte del estudio AFRONTA, para la prevención del suicidio y la promoción de la salud mental. La muestra estuvo formada por 80 pacientes con el diagnóstico de depresión tratados en el centro de salud mental del Consorci Sanitari del Maresme. Resultados y discusión: Se observan correlaciones significativas de la autoestima con casi la totalidad de las variables evaluadas, por lo que se muestra como un constructo crucial a evaluar en la población estudiada. Asimismo, la variable desesperanza se muestra más relacionada con otras variables clínicas que la de la depresión medida con el BDI. La reparación de las emociones (según el TMMS-24) correlaciona con ambas variables citadas, demostrándose como una variable básica a tener en cuenta tanto en la evaluación como en el tratamiento. No existen diferencias en las variables evaluadas entre los sujetos que presentan un trastorno de personalidad y los que no la presentan, a excepción de la autoestima. Tampoco se encuentran diferencias en ambos grupos en referencia al impulso suicida pero sí en los intentos autolíticos, que es superior en el grupo con trastorno de personalidad.
El sentido de la vida. Un ejemplo de intervención
Authors: Padilla Mosteirín Ana
Published: March 2019

Desde el origen de los tiempos el ser humano se ha cuestionado el significado de la vida. Grandes pensadores y filósofos han planteado en innumerables ocasiones cuál es el sentido de la vida. La Psicoterapia Integradora Humanista, a través de sus planteamientos teóricos y metateóricos, junto con la sabiduría de la Psicología Existencial, recoge el tema y lo plantea como algo concreto a trabajar en la sala de terapia. El presente artículo está basado en el taller realizado en el I Congreso Internacional de Psicología y Psicoterapias Humanistas que se celebró en Barcelona en noviembre de 2015. Como el taller, el artículo se plantea en dos partes. Una primera en la que hay una revisión teórica de la cuestión existencial, basada principalmente en la temática de Irvin Yalom (la muerte, la libertad, el aislamiento y el sentido de la vida). En la segunda parte, se plantea una posible intervención para trabajar en psicoterapia el sentido de la vida, junto con la reflexión final sobre los aspectos genéricos a tener en cuenta a la hora de enfocar este tema en terapia.
Construyendo en Relación un Antídoto para la Vergüenza
Authors: Gómez Masana Mar , Martín Corcuera Bibiana
Published: March 2019

Este artículo, que explora la naturaleza de la experiencia de la vergüenza, es una síntesis del taller teórico-experiencial presentado en el I Congreso Internacional de Psicología y Psicoterapias Humanistas, celebrado en Barcelona, en noviembre de 2015. La propuesta del taller invita a la reflexión sobre la teoría y la experiencia personal de los participantes con la vergüenza. Mediante una dinámica de proceso relacional de grupo, se anima a los participantes a nombrar y normalizar experiencias de vergüenza, desde el compartir y el aprender en compañía, en una relación segura, es decir, sin crítica ni humillación. Trabajamos en diferenciar la vergüenza sana de la vergüenza insana, así como facilitar la identificación de los sistemas de afrontamiento y las necesidades relacionales implicadas, co-creando un antídoto y estrategias actualizadas, en el manejo de situaciones potencialmente vergonzantes. Finalmente, se desarrolla la Teoría del Tratamiento de la Vergüenza, desde el marco de la Psicoterapia Integrativa-Relacional.
De la necesidad al deseo. La psicoterapia humanista: “laboratorio”, y experiencia de humanidad
Authors: García-Monge José Antonio
Published: March 2019

El artículo describe el proceso psicoterapéutico como una relación de personas. Terapeuta y paciente protagonizan una relación de “sujeto”. No se trata de “sanar” algo sino a alguien. Esta relación pasa por la exploración del manejo de necesidades humanas (comprender, amar, crear) y aprender a integrarse en su universo.  El mundo de las necesidades no debe clausurar el crecimiento personal. La mujer, el hombre, son sujetos de deseos. Sólo alcanzar el nivel del deseo puede dar la auténtica estatura humana.  El amor, en el lenguaje auténtico y correcto, sana. Aprender a conocerse, amarse y amar ampliando horizontes personales es terapéutico y humaniza. De la terapia del “objeto” a la del “sujeto” hay un camino terapéutico que la Psicología Humanista recorre en la relación y alianza o vínculo psíquico.
La técnica del rosal como diagnóstico emocional en poblaciones específicas
Authors: García Núria , Lizeretti Nathalie P.
Published: March 2019

Las técnicas de fantasía guiada suponen una gran fuente de información diagnóstica (Rosal, 2002), que permite un trabajo terapéutico creativo al tiempo que constituyen estrategias efectivas para el desarrollo de la Inteligencia Emocional (Lizeretti, 2009; 2012). El objetivo del presente estudio ha sido sistematizar el análisis de la técnica del rosal a fin de contribuir a su validez empírica en el proceso psicodiagnóstico. Para ello se presentan de forma esquemática dos estudios donde se ha aplicado la técnica desde el modelo de Terapia basada en Inteligencia Emocional (TIE). El primer estudio en una muestra de 92 participantes, pacientes con ansiedad y depresión clínica derivados de un centro de salud mental y un grupo control sin diagnostico. El segundo estudio estuvo formado por 62 menores, un grupo experimental procedente de Centros Residenciales de Acción Educativa (CRAE’s) y un grupo control procedente de escuelas de secundaria. Los resultados muestran diferencias claramente significativas entre los diferentes grupos que se han comparado, demostrando la importancia de la investigación empírica en este ámbito a fin de consolidar la eficacia de las técnicas de fantasías guiadas y proyectivas.
Experiencia y existencia en las Psicoterapias Humanistas
Authors: Gimeno-Bayón Cobos Ana
Published: March 2019

Una de las características distintivas de las psicoterapias humanistas es su carácter experiencial, de tal forma que frecuentemente se las denomina “psicoterapias experienciales”. Otro de los rasgos de la Psicología y Psicoterapias Humanistas es su carácter de “existencial” y también por eso se refieren a ellas como existencial-humanistas. Estos dos adjetivos hacen referencia a la globalidad e inmediatez en la adquisición de la sabiduría (terapéutica) y a su significatividad respecto al conjunto del proyecto vital. El artículo abordará estos temas, y preguntas tales como: ¿Qué conlleva y cómo se le da la cualidad de “experiencial” o de “existencial” en la sala de terapia? ¿Por qué han optado las psicoterapias humanistas por este enfoque? ¿Se sobrevaloran, en el proceso terapéutico de las psicoterapias humanistas, alguno de los subsistemas o niveles que configuran la experiencia en detrimento o disociándolo de los otros? ¿Tienen en cuenta el contexto del sujeto más allá de la sala de terapia? ¿Se contempla la perspectiva del momento evolutivo en que se encuentra la persona y la tarea a realizar en este período de su vida? ¿Hay un ir y venir entre el presente de la experiencia “aquí y ahora” y el conjunto del proyecto vital de la persona? La multiplicidad de dimensiones e inteligencias que conlleva el hecho de ser humano necesitan estructurarse en un hilo conductor teleológico y plástico que dé sentido al proceso, de modo que cada sesión terapéutica sea un momento único, en el seno de una vida única y llena de sentido.
Análisis Transaccional de la Obsesión: Integrando Diversos Conceptos y Métodos
Authors: Erskine Richard G.
Published: March 2019

Los problemas psicológicos tales como la fantasía repetitiva, la preocupación habitual y la obsesión parecen haberse incrementado en los últimos años entre las personas que buscan psicoterapia. Este tipo de problemas parecen trascender muchos diagnósticos psicológicos. Obsesionarse y preocuparse de forma habitual puede encontrarse entre los principales temas de tratamiento de nuestra época, son reflejos de un estilo de vida y de las presiones profesionales, de experiencias evolutivas, de déficits en las relaciones interpersonales, y de aspectos del Guion de Vida. Cuando se aborda en la psicoterapia, esta rumiación podría recibir solamente una atención superficial o no parecer pertinente a los aspectos del Guion de Vida. Sin embargo, la preocupación habitual y las fantasías repetitivas absorben gran parte de la actividad mental y dificultan en la persona su capacidad para la espontaneidad, la intimidad, y el disfrute de la vida en el presente.  Desde el modelo del Análisis Transaccional Relacional y el modelo de la Psicoterapia Integrativa se presenta una perspectiva de tratamiento de seis facetas para la psicoterapia de la obsesión, la preocupación habitual y la fantasía repetitiva.  Además, se ilustra con un caso clínico en el que se muestra el tratamiento de seis facetas, así como, diversas intervenciones integrando distintos conceptos y métodos para el tratamiento de la obsesión, desde los modelos psicoterapéuticos anteriormente mencionados.
La Base y el Origen Socio-cultural de las Psicoterapias Cognitivas
Authors: Caro Gabalda Isabel
Published: March 2019

Este trabajo, de corte teórico, tiene como finalidad principal rastrear las bases y el origen socio-cultural de las psicoterapias cognitivas. Para ello, el trabajo comienza describiendo, brevemente, los elementos principales del modelo cognitivo y señalando, a continuación, las relaciones entre psicoterapia y marco occidental. Seguidamente, se procede a una comparación en mayor detalle entre las psicoterapias cognitivas y su particular origen socio-cultural. Elementos clave que se resaltan y relacionan con las psicoterapias cognitivas son el individualismo, la búsqueda de control y autonomía, un self individual autolimitado, y la consecución del racionalismo. El desarrollo de estos apartados tiene en cuenta a las principales terapias cognitivas, de corte clásico, o de corte constructivista. Finalmente, el trabajo termina haciendo una reflexión de todo ello desde la perspectiva del sujeto cognitivo.
PECULIARITIES OF PERSONALITY SOCIALIZATION IN THE TOPOS OF INFORMATION SOCIETY
Authors: Kutsepal Svitlana
Published: March 2019

Internet communication is an important element in the information space structure. It is able to acquire various forms: a web-page, an e-mail page, e-mail (electronic mail), online messages, online communities, virtual subcultures, network slang and behavioral rules that define the content and forms of socializing communication. Internet communication is a consequence of the involvement in the communicative extralinguistic (social, cultural, etc.) factors and realities - computers and computer networks.
The modern person does not live in the world of things, but in the world of images, this is especially evident in the representatives of the “digital generation”. That is why the established and time-tested ways of socializing and personality integrating into the social and cultural space do not work under the conditions of information society, where electronic media provide new opportunities for the man to capture an infinite space of information and media life.
Information transformations of social and cultural environment of human existence and socialization open up a variety of new possibilities for self-development; the prospect of building an ideal information society opens up, when each person receives equal access to information and the society, with the help of information, follows the way of conscious evolution.

Conclusions. Unfortunately, methodology and practice of socialization, which is offered today by educational institutions, no longer corresponds to the needs of providing social and humanocentric orientations for the development of a “digital generation” person, therefore, social and philosophical and philosophical and educational analysis of this problem should become a priority topic of educational discourse. There is an urgent need to develop theoretical and methodological models that will provide an adequate understanding of the innovative nature of social and cultural processes taking place in the information society and prove that information technologies and their infinite possibilities should be cognitive and valuable basis of educational innovations.

Published: March 2019

Adanya perubahan paradigma dalam mengkonsumsi bahan pangan menjadikan pola hidup sehat berkembang di masyarakat, hal ini mengakibatkan preferensi mengenai bahan pangan organik terus meingkat. Salah satu produk pangan yang mempunyai prospek untuk dikembangkan adalah beras organik. Oleh karena itu, sangat penting menganalisis proses bisnis untuk mengetahui kondisi dan permasalahan yang terdapat pada rantai pasok beras organik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui proses bisnis dan aliran rantai pasok beras organik di Provinsi Jawa Barat. Analisis rantai pasok dilakukan terhadap setiap aktivitas yang dilakukan selama proses produksi beras dari hulu hingga hilir. Kajian rantai pasok beras organik dilakukan di Kabupaten Bandung dan Tasikmalaya, Provinsi Jawa Barat. Teknik Purposive Sampling digunakan dalam pemilihan lokasi dan responden berdasar pertimbangan bahwa lokasi adalah sentra produksi beras organik serta responden telah mewakili seluruh informasi yang dibutuhkan pada rantai pasok. Metode penelitian ini menggunakan analisis deskriptif untuk mengetahui proses bisnis dan aktvitas rantai pasok. Berdasarkan hasil analisis diperoleh bahwa kondisi rantai pasok beras organik yang terbentuk belum optimal. Hal ini dikarenakan tidak terserapnya seluruh hasil panen petani ke industri penggilingan beras karena terbatasnya akses pasar dan modal yang dimiliki.

Synthesis of functionalized diazocines for application as building blocks in photo- and mechanoresponsive materials
Authors: Moormann Widukind , Langbehn Daniel , Herges Rainer
Published: March 2019

Seven symmetrically 3,3’-substituted diazocines were synthesized. Functional groups include alcohol, azide, amine and vinyl groups, which are suitable for polymer synthesis. Upon irradiation at 385 and 530 nm the diazocines perform a reversible, pincer-type movement switching the 3,3’-distance between 6.1 Å (cis, stable isomer) and 8.2 Å (trans, metastable isomer). Key reactions in the synthesis are an oxidative C–C coupling of 2-nitrotoluenes (75–82% yield) and a reductive ring closure to form the diazocines (56–60% yield). The cyclization of the dinitro compound to the azo compound was improved in yield and reproducibility, by over-reduction to the hydrazine and reoxidation to the azo unit. In contrast to 3,3’- and 4,4’-diaminodiazocine, which have been implemented in macromolecules for conformation switching, our compounds exhibit improved photophysical properties (photostationary states, separation of absorption bands in the cis and trans configuration). Hence they are promising candidates as molecular switches in photo and mechanoresponsive macromolecules and other smart materials.
Millimeter-wave Polarization Due to Grain Alignment by the Gas Flow in Protoplanetary Disks
Authors: Kataoka Akimasa , Okuzumi Satoshi , Tazaki Ryo
Published: March 2019

Dust grains emit intrinsic polarized emission if they are elongated and aligned in the same direction. The direction of the grain alignment is determined by external forces, such as magnetic fields, radiation, and gas flow against the dust grains. In this Letter, we apply the concept of the grain alignment by gas flow, which is called mechanical alignment, to the situation of a protoplanetary disk. We assume that grains have a certain helicity, which results in the alignment with the minor axis parallel to the grain velocity against the ambient disk gas and discuss the morphology of polarization vectors in a protoplanetary disk. We find that the direction of the polarization vectors depends on the Stokes number, which denotes how well grains are coupled to the gas. If the Stokes number is less than unity, the orientation of polarization is in the azimuthal direction because the dust velocity against the gas is in the radial direction. If the Stokes number is as large as unity, the polarization vectors show a leading spiral pattern because the radial and azimuthal components of the gas velocity against the dust grains are comparable. This suggests that if the observed polarization vectors show a leading spiral pattern, it would indicate that the Stokes number of dust grains is around unity, which is presumably radially drifting.
Signature of Extended Solar Cycles as Detected from Ca ii K Synoptic Maps of Kodaikanal and Mount Wilson Observatory

Published: March 2019

In recent years there has been a resurgence of the study of extended solar cycles (ESCs) through observational proxies mainly in extreme ultraviolet. But most of them are limited only to the space-based era covering only about two solar cycles. Long-term historical data sets are worth examining for the consistency of ESCs. The Kodaikanal Solar Observatory (KSO) and the Mount Wilson Observatory (MWO) are two major sources of long-term Ca ii K digitized spectroheliograms covering the temporal spans of 1907–2007 and 1915–1985 respectively. In this study, we detected supergranule boundaries, commonly known as networks, using the Carrington maps from both KSO and MWO data sets. Subsequently we excluded the plage areas to consider only the quiet Sun (QS) and detected small-scale bright features through intensity thresholding over the QS network. Latitudinal density of those features, which we named “Network Bright Elements,” could clearly depict the existence of overlapping cycles with equatorward branches starting at latitude ≈55° and taking about 15 ± 1 yr to reach the equator. We performed a superposed epoch analysis to depict the similarity of those extended cycles. Knowledge of such equatorward band interaction, for several cycles, may provide critical constraints on solar dynamo models.

The focus of the current study was to explore nursing home staff's understanding and how they approach family caregivers' existential life situations when caring for individuals with dementia. A qualitative interview study was conducted with 20 nursing staff in two nursing homes in northern Sweden. Face-to-face interviews were analyzed using interpretive content analysis. One overarching theme with three themes and nine subthemes comprised the findings. The themes describe how nursing staff were “in between” when they cared for individuals with dementia and encountered family caregivers' existential life situations. Nurses acted as advocates and safeguarded family caregivers via dialogues and interactions. Nurses were supporters and by “being in between” they eased family caregivers' feelings of powerlessness in relation to dying and death. “Being in between” may give nurses a deeper understanding of family caregivers' existential needs, thus increasing family caregivers' well-being.

El presente estudio evalúa el comportamiento de las variables ultrasónicas en probetas de acero inoxidable dúplex 2205 (UNS31803/ EN1.4462), tratadas térmicamente a 750 °C durante distintos tiempos, con el objetivo de promover la precipitación de fases secundarias, chi (χ) y sigma (σ). Se estudió la evolución microestructural mediante microscopía óptica y electrónica de barrido, y utilizando la técnica ultrasónica pulso eco de contacto. Finalmente, se realizaron ensayos electroquímicos con el objetivo de evaluar la resistencia a la corrosión. Los resultados revelaron que a medida que aumenta el tiempo de tratamiento térmico se produce un incremento de las cantidades relativas de fases χ y σ a lo largo de las interfases ferrita/ferrita y ferrita/austenita, especialmente hacia el interior del grano ferrítico. La velocidad de onda longitudinal y el coeficiente de atenuación presentaron una tendencia que coincide con los cambios microestructurales generados por efecto del tratamiento térmico. La evaluación electroquímica reveló una alta resistencia a la corrosión uniforme. No obstante, se observó una correlación entre el aumento del tiempo de tratamiento térmico con la pérdida de la resistencia a la corrosión localizada.

The scientist, engineers, and researchers highly need the high-performance computing (HPC) services for executing the energy, engineering, environmental sciences, weather, and life science simulations. The virtual machine (VM) or docker-enabled HPC Cloud service provides the advantages of consolidation and support for multiple users in public cloud environment. Adding the hypervisor on the top of bare metal hardware brings few challenges like the overhead of computation due to virtualization, especially in HPC environment. This chapter discusses the challenges, solutions, and opportunities due to input-output, VMM overheads, interconnection overheads, VM migration problems, and scalability problems in HPC Cloud. This chapter portrays HPC Cloud as highly complex distributed environment consisting of the heterogeneous types of architectures consisting of the different processor architectures, inter-connectivity techniques, the problems of the shared memory, distributed memory, and hybrid architectures in distributed computing like resilience, scalability, check-pointing, and fault tolerance.

Lifetime Maximization of Target-Covered WSN Using Computational Swarm Intelligence
Authors: Jones Roselin
Published: March 2019

In target-covered WSN, all critical points (CPs) are to be monitored effectively. Even a single node failure may cause coverage hole reducing the lifetime of the network. The sensor has non-rechargeable battery, and hence, energy supervision is inevitable. To maximize the lifetime of the WSN with guaranteed coverage and effective battery utilization, the activities of the sensors are to be scheduled and also the sensors may be repositioned towards the critical points. This chapter proposes an energy-efficient coverage-based artificial bee colony optimization (EEC-ABC) approach that exploits the intelligent foraging behavior of honeybee swarms to solve EEC problem to maximize the lifetime of the WSN. It also adheres to quality of service metrics such as coverage, residual energy, and lifetime. Similarly, energy-balanced dynamic deployment (EB-DD) optimization approach is proposed to heal the coverage hole to maximize the lifetime of the WSN. It positions the self-deployable mobile sensors towards the CPs to balance their energy density and thus enhances the lifetime of the network.
Energy-Efficient Mobility Heuristics for Maximizing Network Lifetime in Robotic Wireless Sensor Networks
Authors: Regis Anne W.
Published: March 2019

In a static wireless sensor networks (WSN), the fundamental issue is the formation of energy hole in the sink's immediate locality. The solution to the energy-hole problem can be resolved by incorporating mobile entities like mobile robot (MR) into the network. This chapter proposes three strategies that exploits the mobility of the MR to overcome the energy-hole problem resulting in optimized energy usage across the network and thus maximized network lifetime. Firstly, the energy hole problem using MR is formulated as an optimization model to maximize the sojourn time of the MR at each node and a MR-ranking heuristic that ranks the critical node to be serviced is proposed. Secondly, MR-optimal scheme that finds the optimal path for the MR is formulated and designed. Thirdly, Multi-MR cooperation approach is proposed where multiple MR's collaborate to service the critical nodes. Adequate experiments have been performed to analyze the performance of the proposed schemes. The proposed methods ensure uniform energy distribution and prolonged network lifetime.

Published: March 2019

This chapter presents an analysis of factors influencing the heat and moisture exchange for their further use in experimental research to study the process of grain drying with active ventilation. The temperature and velocity of the drying agent and grain moisture content are determined. One centimeter (1 cm) thick layer is considered to be a thin layer. This size appears to be very manageable to transfer the regularities of the drying process to a thicker layer when modeling the drying process in a thick layer. The experiment was carried out for three drying modes: classical mode (i.e., drying of grains with natural and heated air), with a constant concentration of air ions in the drying agent, with cyclic (periodic) presence of air ions in the drying agent. Using the regression equations produced a so-called electro-activation criterion can be described. The dependencies obtained would help to optimize the drying process with respect to drying time criterion.

Hexaqua magnesium chlorine, bishofite, almost never occurred in the fossil salt deposits until recently, while industry has used artificially produced magnesium chloride. The discovery of bishofite deposits in the Lower Volga region (both for raw materials purity of MgCl2 up to 95-98%, and for reserves about 500 billion tons) was a unique event. The use of bischofite consists in the salt compositions of sand to protect roads from icing yet. The chapter represents the results summary of the bishofite solutions electrochemical processing with the purpose of obtaining solutions with the antibacterial properties complex the use of which can be recommended for pre-plant seeds treatment, plant protection from fungal effects, which allowed, as shown by experiments on the crops cultivation, to increase yields up to two-three times, and also to use for disinfection of domestic and industrial wastewater in agricultural enterprises. The technological characteristics of the using electrochemical device are considered in the chapter.

Published: March 2019

Genuineness, or authenticity, has long been established as the core attribute of excellent teachers. To reach their diverse learners, caring educators build genuine connections. Congruence has been described as the core condition for a meaningful learning and restorative growth, along with unconditional positive regard and empathetic understanding. While ample research has been generated on effectiveness in online education, few studies have focused on the notion and transferability of genuineness in the virtual classroom. This chapter presents a review of the interdisciplinary literature on authenticity, explores its link to diversity, and discusses the ways of cultivating authenticity online. It explores how faculty integrate the holistic self into course content, the virtual environment, and student interaction, and concludes with a review of best practices in course design and facilitation that convey authentic care for students online.
