As cartas de provisão para o cargo de capitão-mor na capitania do Rio Grande: uma incursão comparativa entre a educação moderna de meados do século XVII e a educação cavaleiresca da Idade Média em Portugal e nas colônias americanas
Authors: Oliveira Francisco
Published: June 2023

Este trabalho tem como objeto de estudo as cartas de provisão para o cargo de capitão-mor da Capitania do Rio Grande no século XVII. Buscamos refletir sobre a formação do Capitão-mor que se evidenciou nessas cartas. Observamos na leitura desses manuscritos oficiais que o pretendente ao cargo de Capitão-mor apresentava um perfil que privilegiava sua experiência prática em guerras, no serviço à igreja e na travessia dos mares. Esse perfil indica traços da formação cavaleiresca europeia medieval predominante nos séculos XII e XIII. Essa educação cavaleiresca foi comum durante a Idade Média. Nas cartas o discurso dos candidatos apresenta sua luta contra os infiéis, a proteção dos interesses católicos, um discurso cristão que privilegia a proteção dos frágeis e desprotegidos do Reino e uma forte posição e disposição para proteger os interesses da Coroa portuguesa no ultramar, essas características denunciam uma forte formação católica/cristã dos homens dispostos a assumirem esse cargo público nas colônias americanas. Essa documentação também nos informa que para chegar ao cargo de Capitão-mor, a formação devia ser bem pragmática, dentro dos preceitos sociais da época. A presente pesquisa teve como foco investigar a formação educacional/militar dos portugueses interessados em ingressarem nos postos administrativos, como por exemplo o cargo de Capitão-mor na Capitania do Rio Grande. Buscamos entender as relações entre a formação cavaleiresca medieval e a posta em prática na formação dos capitães-mores que assumiram esse posto militar/governamental na América portuguesa. Considerando que os candidatos redigiam textos como uma espécie de currículo, esses destacavam seus feitos militares e heroicos, tanto na Europa, África e América. A metodologia empregada foi a pesquisa documental em fontes primárias (Projeto Resgate Barão Rio Branco) e uma pesquisa bibliográfica sobre o tema, tentando assim, esclarecer as varia perguntas lançadas sobre esse tema. Ao final, o leitor encontrará um álbum com retratos dos capitães-mores que governaram no Estado do Brasil, como também, cenas de batalhas onde aparecem como protagonistas alguns cavaleiros em ação no período medieval.

A Meta Analytic Review on causes for discontinuing Education of Girls in Rural Secondary Schools
Authors: Prasad Kalawanti , Pathak Kalpesh H
Published: June 2023

Education is the only tool with which a girl or a woman can empower herself and eventually her family. Girls' education is both an intrinsic right and a critical lever to reaching other development objectives. Education is one of the most critical areas of empowerment for women. Among children not attending school there are twice as many girls as boys, and among illiterate adults there are twice as many women as men. It includes areas of gender equality and access to education. This meta-analytic review intends to critical study of the research work carried out in India in last 15 years on educational problems of girls living in various parts in India available on open database sources. Some of the studies have major focus on girls living in tribal areas. Researcher herself experienced that girls living in rural areas have fewer opportunities for education than boys. No study has been found to know the basic reason for the said problem. The researcher could not find any research done in Gujarat state based on the said topic. After analysing the findings, it was found that the attitude of parents is biased towards the education of girls. Few of the researchers found that social norms and behaviour such as child marriage, poverty, child labour were the reasons for low literacy in girls. Studies on tribal girls revealed that unfriendly treatment, feeling of insecurity and lack of awareness among parents, belief that education will create problem for them at the time of marriage were the major berriers for the girls education.

Yatraitastu na pujyante sarvastatrafalah kriya. Manusmriti 3/56.

Means

Where women are worshipped, deities reside there and where women are not worshipped, they are not respected, all the good deeds done there become fruitless.

In our Vedic period Indian society, women were worshiped as goddesses. That's why our unbroken India was known for intelligent women. Over time, this condition of women declined and by the time of medieval period, this decline reached its peak. Even after India's independence in 1947, today women are exploited and oppressed. Even after many efforts of the government, there was no significant change at the social level and the male dominated mentality remained the same.

In this exercise paper, along with the concept of women empowerment, the need for women empowerment, obstacles in women empowerment have been mentioned. The concrete efforts taken by the government for women empowerment in India and the rules and regulations have also been mentioned.

 

Abstract in Hindi Language

जहाँ स्त्रियों की पूजा होती है वहाँ देवता निवास करते हैं और जहाँ स्त्रियों की पूजा नही होती है, उनका सम्मान नही होता है वहाँ किये गये समस्त अच्छे कर्म निष्फल हो जाते हैं।

हमारे वैदिक कालिन भारतीय समाज में नारी को देवी मानकर उसकी पूजा होती थीं । तभी तो हमारा हमारा अखंड भारत विदुषी नारियों के लिए जाना जाता था। कालांतर में नारी की इस स्थिति में ह्रास हुआ और मध्यकाल आते-आते यह ह्रास अपने चरम पर जा पहुंचा। १९४७ में भारत की आजादी के बाद भी आज नारी शोषित और उत्पीडित है । सरकार के अनेक प्रयत्न के बाद भी सामाजिक स्तर पर कोई महत्वपूर्ण बदलाव नहीं आये और पुरुष प्रधान मानसिकता वैसी की वैसी ही रहीं ।

इस अभ्यास पेपर में अभ्यासकने नारी सशक्तिकरण की विभावना के साथ – साथ महिला सशक्तिकरण की आवश्यकता, महिला सशक्तिकरण में आने वाली बाधाओं का जिक्र किया है । भारत में महिला सशक्तिकरण के लिये सरकार द्वारा उठाये गये ठोस प्रयत्न एवं कायदे – कानून का भी जिक्र किया गया है ।

Feminism and Finitude
Authors: Mularoni Alessandra
Published: June 2023

This essay examines the ideological parallels between the transhuman pursuit for immortality and xenofeminism’s call for biological manipulation. Paying particular attention to the patriarchal legacy of technoscience, I identify eugenic principles embedded in the discursive emphasis on anti-naturalism, freedom, and alienation. My intention is to recuperate xenofeminism’s more radical manoeuvres by resituating its aims through a historical materialist approach. Specifically, I suggest a reinterpretation of nature as inherently technological. In so doing, I argue for an alliance between xenofeminism and ecofeminist political economy to engage a discursive redirection toward degrowth and dealienation. I then build on Rosi Braidotti’s (2013) posthuman theory of death to suggest an uncomfortable biopolitical expansion: a biopolitics for the Anthropocene should not only seek an equal right to live, but also an equal predisposition to death. My countervailing materialism centres a politics of finitude through an analysis of the vital-fatal entanglement in the body’s reproductive capacities.

One of the most dangerous natural disasters, which causes massive damage all over the world, is flash floods. Therefore, the assessment of flash floods disasters is considered increasingly urgent and important. The widely used techniques for studying and analyzing the causes and impact of natural hazards are multi-criteria techniques. Several researchers used traditional multi-criteria decision-making techniques in the estimation process of flash floods problems as the analytical hierarchy process, decision making trial and evaluation laboratory and analytic network process. The main disadvantage of these traditional models is the incapability of simulating and reflecting uncertain human thoughts. Since neutrosophic logic has a great ability for simulating human’s thoughts and increase the flexibility of expert's preferences in real world problems, we applied it in this study. There are different locations in Egypt that are at a serious risk of flooding, especially in Upper Egypt. Asyut has suffered from frequent flash floods, with some flood events that lead to mortality, damages, and economic losses in the last decades. The intensity of floods in Egypt varies from year to year, according to several climatic and hydrological variables. This study focuses on using a Neutrosophic Decision making trial and evaluation laboratory (N-DEMATEL) technique with remotely sensed data and geographical information system (GIS) for producing a flash floods hazard map. The N-DEMATEL technique is applied to determine the weights of various factors that related to flash flooding, including elevation, slope, topographic wetness index, distance from the stream, flow accumulation, aspect, flow direction, soil, land cover, watershed, curvature, drainage density , total population , population density and precipitation. The obtained weight of selected criteria used then to produce the flood hazard map (FHM) using a raster calculator tool in geographic information system.

An Effective FOG Computing Based Distributed Forecasting of Cyber-Attacks in Internet of Things
Authors:   DoEC, Gyan Ganga Institute of Technology and Sciences, Jabalpur, M. P., India, Roy Vandana
Published: June 2023

Existing cloud based security procedures are insufficient to manage the ever-increasing assaults in IoT due to the volume of data generated and the processing latency. IoT applications are vulnerable to cyberattacks, and some of these assaults might have catastrophic results if not stopped or mitigated quickly enough. As a result, IoT calls for self-protect security systems that can automatically interpret attacks in IoT traffic and efficiently handle the attack situation by activating the proper response quickly. Fog computing satisfies this need because it can embed the intelligent self-protection mechanism in the distributed fog nodes, allowing them to swiftly deal with the assault scenario and safeguard the IoT application with little in the way of human interaction. At the fog nodes, the forecasting method employs distributed Gaussian process regression. The cyber-attack may be predicted more quickly and with less mistake for both low- and high-rate attacks thanks to the local forecasting about the IoT traffic characteristics at fog node. One of the fundamental necessities of an IoT security mechanism is the ability to forecast attacks in a timely manner with a high degree of accuracy, and the simulation results highlight this fact.

Keeping a proper level of task dependency throughout the scheduling process is critical to achieving the aim of decreasing the make-span rate in Internet of Health Things (IoHT) projects. We provide a smart model strategy for effective task scheduling in the IoHT environment for e-healthcare systems by merging hybrid moth flame optimisation (HMFO) with cloud computing. The HMFO algorithm guarantees that all available resources are distributed evenly, resulting in improved quality of service (QoS). We study the Google cluster dataset to learn about the scheduling behaviours of cloud-based jobs in order to train our model. After training, an HMFO model may be used to plan activities in real time. To assess the success of our strategy, we run simulations in the CloudSim environment, taking into account crucial parameters such as resource utilisation, reaction time, and energy consumption. According to a comparative analysis, our hybrid HMFO system surpasses the alternatives in terms of reaction time, average run duration, and cost savings. Our method has proven to be effective due to the favourable effects it has had on response rates, prices, and run times. Combining IoT and cloud computing has the potential to improve healthcare delivery in a variety of ways. One unique strategy we offer for scheduling IOHT jobs is to combine a deep neural network (DNN) algorithm with the MFO technique. Job scheduling in electronic healthcare systems can be optimised with the help of our hybrid MFO-DNN algorithm by taking into account a variety of different objectives, the most important of which are lowering response times while improving resource utilisation and maintaining consistent load balances. The MFO approach searches the search space and provides early solutions, while the DNN algorithm refines and improves those first findings. In comprehensive simulations conducted in a real-world hospital setting, the hybrid MFO-DNN technique outperformed existing scheduling algorithms in terms of reaction time, resource utilisation, and load balancing. The simulated healthcare environments were as true to life as was feasible. The suggested technique has been demonstrated to be both dependable and scalable, making it appropriate for use in large-scale IOHT deployments. This study considerably enhances the state of the art in IOHT task scheduling in E healthcare systems by developing a hybrid optimisation technique that takes advantage of the strengths of both MFO and DNN. The findings indicate that this strategy has the potential to improve the quality and efficiency of healthcare delivery, which helps patients receive care that is both effective and timely.

The Internet of Medical Things (IoMT) is a revolutionary technique for integrating the IT infrastructure of healthcare organisations with medical apps and equipment. Rapid advancements in this approach in recent years have resulted in game-changing improvements in the healthcare system, illness management, and patient care standards. Both achievements have been made possible by the Internet of Medical Things. People can use the IoMT to access a variety of cloud-based services, including file sharing, patient monitoring, data collection, information gathering, and hospital cleaning. Wireless sensor networks (WSNs), which collect and transmit data, are critical to system operation. In the healthcare system, patients’ privacy and security must be preserved at all costs. Wireless data transmission from these cutting-edge devices may have been intercepted and manipulated without consent. The hybrid and improved (Elliptic Curve Cryptography ECC) Energy-Efficient Routing Protocol (EERP) method, which is based on the elliptic curve encryption protocol, may provide enough protection for sensitive information. ECC-EERP uses pairs of public and private keys known only to each other to decode and encrypt data delivered across a network. As a result, the energy needed to sustain WSNs has dropped. To assess the efficacy of the recommended plan, we did an extensive study and compared our findings to the many other viable courses of action. We did the analysis while taking a variety of aspects into account. The study's findings and conclusion all point to the strategy's ability to significantly increase energy efficiency and security. ECC-EERP is a novel encryption method that increases data security while consuming less energy. Because of its efficacy in improving the whole healthcare system, this strategy has a lot of potential for the future of patient care, illness management, and healthcare delivery in general.

Cyberthreat proliferation parallels the rapid surge in smart home usage. While having everything in one place is convenient, it also increases your home's vulnerability to cyber threats. Such an attack could result in bodily harm, the theft of sensitive information, or both. To mitigate the effects of these threats, owners of smart homes can make efforts to prevent cybercriminals from breaking into their premises starting by updating their firmware to the most recent version, creating secure passwords, and enabling two-factor authentication. Second, people should safeguard their gadgets by creating unique user IDs, disabling unneeded functions, and always keeping a tight eye on them. Finally, they must safeguard the facility where they conduct business by installing surveillance equipment, employing electronic locks, and restricting network access. Individuals must take these safeguards, but they must also stay informed about the most recent threats to home cybersecurity and the best strategies to combat them. Smart home device owners should become acquainted with the risks to which their devices are prone and ensure that their devices are updated to the most recent versions of all available software and security upgrades. Collaboration between homeowners, connected device manufacturers, and internet service providers is required to ensure the security of a smart home. Homeowners should research the security features available in smart home devices and only buy from reputable businesses that value consumer privacy and security. As the Internet of Things (IoT) expands and develops, a data privacy standard that meets the criteria of Data protection is in great demand. Safeguarding smart family apps necessitates a community agreement and specific permission from users to store their personal information in the product's database.

Using pesticides is familiar to farmers, especially in North Aceh Regency. But the use of chemical pesticides continuously is not recommended because it have negative impacts such as increasing pest resistance, the emergence of new pests, killing the natural enemies/predators, buildup of chemical residues in crops and causing environmental pollution. Pesticides are chemical substances and other substances which use to control various pests. For farmers, the types of pests are mites, nuisance plants, plant diseases caused by fungi (fungi), bacteria, viruses, nematodes (worms that damage roots), snails, rats, birds and other animals that are considered harmful to the corps. The sustainable use of chemical pesticides will certainly damage the environment so that it can harm rural communities who generally work as farmers. The best solution is to produce organic pesticides independently with ingredients that are easily available in the surrounding environment. Therefore, State Universities in Sumatra collaborate with Corporate Social responsibility PT. Pupuk Iskandar Muda (CSR PT. PIM) as a partner of DUDI (Industrial Side) also contributed to solving this problem by implementing a training program for making organic pesticides for the women's farmer group Meugah Raya and the Raseuki Seumula farmer group in North Aceh.

Background: Evidences have shown the auricular vagus nerve stimulation (aVNS) is effective for functional dyspepsia (FD) recently. This study aimed to observe the mechanism of aVNS on facilitatory mediators of the inflammation in a rat model of functional dyspepsia. Methods: Thirty-six 5 d-old male Sprague Dawley rats were randomly divided into control groups (n = 12), model group (n = 12), aVNS group (n = 6) and sham-aVNS group (n = 6). Except for the control rats, all other rats were treated with iodoacetamide gavage. After the model was developed successfully, rats in aVNS group and sham-aVNS group received aVNS and sham-aVNS respectively, 30 min/1 time per day for 14 consecutive days. The control group and model group received no intervention. Gastric sensitivity after 1-week of intervention and gastric emptying after 2-week of intervention were adopted to assess the effect of aVNS. Brain-gut peptides, facilitatory mediators of the inflammation in serum were tested by ELISA, and α7 nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (α7-nAchR) in antrum tissue were tested by Immunohistochemistry to explore the mechanism of aVNS. Results: Compared with the control group, the gastric sensitivity was increased, gastric emptying decreased, and there was no structural damage in the gastric antrum in the model group. aVNS reduced visceral hypersensitivity and improved gastric emptying but not sham-aVNS. cholecystokinin, glucagon-like peptide-1, peptide, tumor necrosis factorα and interleukin 6 were all increased, while ghrelin and α7-nAchR decreased in model rats (P < 0.01 for all, compared with the control group). aVNS can normalize them. Conclusion: The aVNS can decrease the gastric sensitivity and increase gastric emptying, the mechanism was related to its regulation of brain-gut peptides and facilitatory mediators of the inflammation. The ameliorating effect was related to cholinergic mechanism.
